Common Issues

MacOS Upgrade Breaking

See this github issue: Copying the following hook (copied from /etc/bashrc) to /etc/zshrc and restarting the shell fixed everything again:

# Nix
if [ -e '/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/etc/profile.d/nix-daemon.sh' ]; then
  . '/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/etc/profile.d/nix-daemon.sh'
fi
# End Nix
