A package is reproducible if you use the same inputs, run the build, and get the same outputs.
The issue is that the build can produce different outputs given the same inputs. So you need to modify the build or patch the outputs. This is something that is being worked on by most distributions: https://reproducible-builds.org/who/projects/
NixOS is not special in that regard nor are all NixOS packages reproducible.
Nope, nix doesn’t ensure or require that the builds are deterministic. It’s not any better in that regard than other package managers.
It’s not really fully reproducible either.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Has community engagement dropped off suddenly?
11·2 years agoAll is not a “for you” feed, it contains posts from the whole fediverse. You are supposed to add the filter yourself. Find the communities you are interested in, subscribe and then browse that.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I'm being harassed by mosquitoes, how do i kill them all?
13·2 years agoI usually kill them with my phone with the screen turned on (the background needs to be blueish and the room needs to be completely dark). For some reason they don’t see it, they just sit there until they get squashed.
This doesn’t work for tiger mosquitoes.
I randomly generated mine using a Markov model. It’s just pronounceable nonsense.

For a while 1 wasn’t considered to be a number either http://aleph0.clarku.edu/~djoyce/elements/bookVII/defVII1.html
