#Today is "Day off Friday", so that means nothing will get done today.

I've an idea to finally get #guix system installed on the Thinkpad X1c. With btrfs + luks spread across a pair of nvme drives.

Will I get that done? Probably not, but it's good to have goals. 🤣

Je vais pas partager des emails techniques que je comprends à peine, mais GNUtoo travaille sur une image de #Guix pour le serveur de salon RockPro64 (https://pine64.com). L’intérêt serait d’avoir un environnement plus stable que le VisionFive2, qui est basé sur RISC-V, dont le support reste donc expérimental.

#Guix #deprecation

Quoting ( #Racket (Con (fourthteen)) 2024):

« [Guix & Nix]’re both out there, and as far as I know they’are doing really well! Why would you pick one over the other? Because #Guix is based on a nice “regular” language like #Lisp, actually #Scheme, and euh #Nix is not! » 😁

Well, aside this part, an usual LISt Parenthetically balanced about common annoyances with Lispy almost-non syntax.

🤔 Maybe another instance of Walder’s law [1]?

“Complex end-to-end tests using #Guix G-expressions” (Sept. 2025)

Nice post by Arun Isaac showing how to put G-expressions to good use to compose a complex pipeline, in this case illustrated with #bioinformatics.
