I am an active nix user and develop all my projects under nix-shell. The tool does amazing job for isolating builds, but /nix/store folder tend to grow and GC launch is required from time to time to reclaim disk space, but it causes lot of downloading later and/or rebuilding of dependencies.
Once I decided to remove unused projects instead to avoid the hustle above and was interleaving 'du -hs *' and 'rm -rf <some-dir-name-form-du-output>' using bash command history to type less. At some point after repetition I mechanically rewrote du command into rm but retained asterisk :(
