Guix module is comming to Nix soon: Thanks to @sikmir for sharing. I love the organization process of EmacsConf so much. It's a real pleasure, and so much convenience. @sachac and Co contact you in advance via email and guide through all the steps: from preparing proposal/announce to recording and captioning.  I'm on vacation until Nov 13. Will reply to all the messages after I come back :) See you in a bit. I was driving the whole day, had a couple hours of sleep and woke up midnight to answer the questions for my pre-recorded talk, get the talk cancelled by faulty HDMI :) No blame, hardware failures happens and I understand that SeaGL is primary offline event, but I would suggest to take a look at wonderfully organized EmacsConf and borrow some great parts from it (including sound checks in advance, keeping in touch with speakers before and during conference, etc).  @ekaitz_zarraga @janneke @efraim Have you seen https://justine.lol/lambda/ (lambda calculus in 383 bytes)? I'm wondering if it can simplify the beginning of the bootstrap chain? Probably, it won't solve the issues with tinyCC and steps somewhere around it, but still can be an interesting bootstrap seed. @abcdw @ekaitz_zarraga @janneke @efraim Unlikely to be simpler. Currently x86 bootstrap chain starts with hex0 which is far smaller, just 256 bytes. And that's including 84-byte ELF32 header and 75 bytes dealing with file I/O and exiting program. So the rest (actual hex0 algoritm) is 97 bytes and that includes two types of comments and supports both lowercase and uppercase hex numbers (supporting just one type of comment and one set of hex numbers could bring it down from 97 bytes to maybe 87)  @abcdw @ekaitz_zarraga @efraim It looks interesting...but there's a big gap between "could be" and a working solution. New CIDER release in Guix master, thanks to @Jlicht https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=0f2ec2117b31fd209d98d7023cef61a78abe8cd4 Thanks for the new release to @bbatsov and contributors. Sent my first 7a today. Lead, onsight. I'm hacking productivity beast, even day offs I take seriously 😄 Guix Daemon will be implemented in Guile Scheme and Fibers! @cbaines got funded by NLnet 🥳 @abcdw It is great to see, how not only things are stacked on top of existing things, but the Guix team also looks down the stack and looks what can be improved or bootstrapped.  Recorded a talk for EmacsConf 2023. Now I can take a rest and send a few climbing routes in the nearest mountains.   @abcdw It is nicely rendered but also a bit stale. Looks like the docset hasn’t been updated since 2021. @dthompson Hi Dave! Can you share the implementation of trampoline, please? @abcdw @dthompson I'm surprised this is necessary, I thought that Guile modules export "variables" that are boxes for the exported values so that they can be replaced on a new eval  @abcdw @dthompson when I've played with guile http server I just wrapped handler with lambda, so it would call last version of handler function each time If you need to maintain an association between buffer and some long-running process in Emacs, sesman is very good for it. It saved me a lot of boilerplate code. https://github.com/vspinu/sesman P.S. The documentation is lacking, but take a look at test, CIDER, or emacs-arei. Recorded #seagl2023 talk. Tested Guile Tree-Sitter bindings. Reviewed a few patches for #rde and #guix. Successfully used Arei Guile IDE for interacting with Guix APIs. Even climbed a couple routes somewhere in between. It's only a fraction of what is hapenning. And everything was done in the middle of the turkish woods. Productive enough week I would say! Actually, I feel a little bit overwhelmed with all the things and duties, but hope it will become a little better somewhere in January. Ok, now I can interactively work with Guix API from the comfort of my text editor. Hacking finally. #guix #guile #emacs #lisp #scheme #nrepl #clojure #guilearesrs #emacsarei You can't just do `guix shell guix --with-input=guile=guile-next` 😔 Because graphviz-minimal fails to build. The actual problem I'm trying to solve for the last 3 hours is to just make it run: `guile -c "(pk (@ (gnu packages emacs) emacs-pgtk))"` without backtraces thrown in my face. However, I can't simply do it. It was a long way, but I finally hacked everything together with simple: |
