 @daviwil I realized what you meant, when said emacs-next-tree-sitter doesn't have pgtk support! :) It was a small reorganization of emacs packages recently, so I guess we also need to inherit emacs-next-tree-sitter from emacs-next-pgtk. Testing this change rn. Has anyone managed to run Guix System on pinephone? Share your experience. Please boost! 🙂  @abcdw @PINE64 I would love to know this too. Both Guix and PinePhone are awesome. I know it's been done with NixOS on the PinePhone. Attempts seem to have stalled with the PinePhone Pro: https://github.com/NixOS/mobile-nixos/issues/440 @abcdw @PINE64 Maybe you've found that already, but I remembered this config: https://github.com/Schroedinger50PCT/guix-pinephone This week I go to Turkey for 2-3 weeks to negotiate a contract. It can become a first contract for our FOSS business. It is a first step to make it sustainable and at the same time I really hope we won't trade an ethical aspect of it in any future. > Similarly if you want to hack something really delightful, go to what the hackers hacked back before they had mortgages -- and what they still hack on in their free time. From @wingo's post on guile history. http://wingolog.org/archives/2009/01/07/a-brief-history-of-guile More monads in guix. A nice evening reading on guix scheme api and functional programming tricks for managing side effects. https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2023/dissecting-guix-part-2-the-store-monad/ After a few years of rde development and contributions to Guix, I finally started to learn Scheme 😄 Skeemed throught Scheme Primer. Good introductionary material by @cwebber: easy to read, practical, no bs, covers all necessary fundamentals, shows how to implement Scheme evaluator in Scheme. @abcdw I don't think anyone working in technology is sane. Regardless of what they do. I finished road to FOSS Business 30 days stream series and made a summary on the results https://youtu.be/HMv5D00zudI. Thank you very much for all the support! There is a lot of work to be done, but I still have some time and I'm optimistic about achieving the goal of building an ethical and sustainable business. Will see how it goes.  @abcdw Congrats on reaching the 30 days! I bet it wasn't easy streaming every day consistently Appreciating your work, anyhow you may want to rethink whether using YouTube meets "ethical and sustainable". Edit: heavy typos  If you want to cleanup guile's repl state for some particular module, you can do (module-clear! (resolve-module '(your module here))) When I read half of the Haskell book and already thought it was easy, I went to the local hackerspace to haskell seminar and was met by Applicative-Functor-Monad-Type-Inference all that thing. @abcdw The #Haskell syntax is easy, that is for sure. Functors, Applicatives, and #Monads are best learned by example, in my opinion. When I first learned about them, they were so simple that I thought I was missing something. Knowing their definition (which is very simple) doesn't help one understand how it relates to modeling computational procedures until one actually sees examples of how these concepts are used for that purpose. Haskell is Useless. Very nice, cozy and warm talk. Quite old, but still relevant and even a little prophetic. About FP, STM, and trends in computing and programming languages in general. I guess during last a few weeks my Lisp preference list changed from: Clojure, Scheme, Common Lisp, Emacs Lisp. to Scheme, Clojure, Common Lisp, Emacs Lisp. I still find Clojure much more pleasant and elegant out of the box, but Scheme seems more and more future-proof to me.

 I really like Clojure's data structure literals and some of the nice thoughts behind them, e.g., using map keywords as functions. Or relational algebra in sets. These little things make Clojure programming really nice. OTOH, I find the hosted language baggage a bit off-putting: every now and then I have to think about the JVM (e.g., heap size) and there is a bid of impedance mismatch when using OO Java libraries. Scheme--just beautiful but maybe not as productive? A brief guide to the geiser. An Emacs package for scheme development. I take it geiser works well on Guix. I saw a post a while back that claimed otherwise--didn't seem credible. Keep improving tooling for tests for guile scheme in Emacs, join me live: https://trop.in/stream  All the bits of Tree-sitter now landed on Guix master! You can try it out with emacs-next: guix shell emacs-next tree-sitter-html -- emacs Open html file, M-x html-ts-mode RET M-x treesit-explore-mode RET. 25 grammars are packaged already, but emacs have smaller number of -ts- modes available ATM. Thank you everyone for the work!

@abcdw The more I read about Guix, the more I want to give a try. But the lack of FreeBSD support is a showstopper; I'm reluctant to invest in a package solution that I cannot use in production. Are there fundamental aspects of Guix which makes it impossible to run on FreeBSD?

Nice! I didn't have electricity at home and had to stream in public place, so my mic catched some background music (barely noticable) and I got a bunch of copyright claims and video about the work on testing framework for Guile Scheme now blocked in a number of countries. I don't know how to react to it :) The recording on PeerTube: |

@abcdw cool! I'll be happy to use pgtk and tree sitter at the same time :)
