“Why Open Source Matters — Guix”
https://blog.bitmex.com/why-open-source-matters-guix/

I wasn’t seduced by the title but this article is a great explanation of how #FreeSoftware, @reproducible_builds, and #bootstrapping contribute to #SupplyChainSecurity for Bitcoin Core. This includes a discussion of why they went from #Gitian to #Guix.

Thanks @janneke, now I can say: “I’m using the distro entirely built from a 357-byte program, and you? Is your distro bootstrapped?”

I had a little trouble getting GNOME Boxes to work on Guix, so I wrote an article (in Japanese) about it.

@fsf @conservancy @fsfe #GNU Mes 0.24 released, closing the gap with Stage0: the Full Source Bootstrap is here!

The @GuixHPC package graph is now rooted in hex0, a 357-byte binary & ASCII-equivalent https://github.com/oriansj/bootstrap-seeds/blob/master/POSIX/x86/hex0_x86.hex0…

Episode 44: Celebrating a Decade of Guix https://fossandcrafts.org/episodes/44-celebrating-a-decade-of-guix.html

Guix turns ten! We celebrate... by highlighting ten great things about Guix!
Hear all about functional package management, time-traveling operating systems, and why "Composable DSLs" are great!

Today it's been 10 years since the first #GNU #Guix commit! 🎂

Some of the 600+ people who made it possible wrote their story:

@roptat It took quite a while, but we are now at 100% progress on the Japanese language conversion in Weblate.
There were no other participants in the translation except me, but I don't think there are any critical problems.

“Debootstrapping without Archeology — Stacked Implementations in Camlboot”
https://programming-journal.org/2022/6/13/

Neat article by N. Courant, @roptat, and G. Scherer on #OCaml bootstrapping using the #Guile-based Camlboot interpreter (yes!). Includes a detailed overview of #bootstrapping work, including work by @janneke & co. 👍

@cwebber

Hi !
We're trying to start introducing FOSS to young blind kids in Burkina Faso, and some of them show great interest in it.
Would you know of good podcasts or audio resources in French that we could provide them ?
Thanks !
