#scheme The Big Change - GNU Guix Blog | http://redd.it/wkotq1

@selea, maybe it’s time to give #Guix a try?

My #wisp project made its way to #hackernews yesterday! 😃 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32382977 — “Wisp: Whitespace to Lisp” *happy* #gnu #guile

We’re a bit more than one month away from the #Guix 🎂 conference in Paris!

I’m already excited about the program and I hope many folks will join, be they of the #research type, #FreeSoftware enthusiasts, or die-hard Guix hackers. Check it out!

👉 https://10years.guix.gnu.org/

The database at https://disarchive.guix.gnu.org now includes #Disarchive metadata for tar.xz archives!

👉 https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2022-08/msg00061.html

Concretely, it means that .xz tarballs #Guix refers to can be recovered using that database + #SoftwareHeritage.

\o/ #guix system is installed on my main laptop.
Time to discover the beast

Once guile-prescheme can be used to actually compile binaries, it'll be worth doing a followup article to the "guile steel" blogpost I threw together, since a lot has happened (mostly via guile-prescheme, but some other things too)

Btw #guile-steel on irc.libera.chat is lovely!

@ieure As usual, #Scheme is at least named sanely.
= < > etc are numeric
eq? is pointer equality, eqv? adds numbers, equal? is what you normally use.
string=? etc. are for strings
char=? etc. are for chars.
Case-insensitive have -ci suffixes.

I dunno why they haven't overloaded = < > for strings, etc., it wouldn't harm anything. You *can* do that yourself, tho, at least within your user code.

(define (= a b)
(cond
((number? a) (= a b))
((string? a) (string=? a b))
...

Finally learned to set resolution in #GRUB and now running #Guix #Linux-libre on an unsopported card (radeon rx5500xt) at full resolution!

In grub console:
set gfxmode=1920x1080
terminal_output console
terminal_output gfxterm
set gfxpayload=keep

LibreJS 7.21.0 released.

GNU LibreJS aims to address the JavaScript problem described in Richard
Stallman's article The JavaScript Trap. LibreJS is a free add-on for GNU IceCat and other Mozilla-based browsers. It blocks nonfree nontrivial JavaScript while allowing JavaScript that is free and/or trivial.

Just noticed that :
10 years of stories behind Guix
#TempusFugit

#GuixSystem and/or #Guix
I have never tested either of them.

Transactional upgrades and roll-backs, reproducible build environments, unprivileged package management and ...no #SystemD !

It seems it really worth the try. No ?

Succesfully built #guix livecd with home-environment inside, yay!

Trying to bake my whole home config with graphical session into livecd next?
