It seems more kde packages are actively comming to guix. I saw a bunch of #lxqt packages too. I deployed my contract project to production 🥳 Need to make a few more things for it, but I already can take a breath and partially get back to work on my FOSS projects. Due to paperwork, contracts seeking and many other things related to relocation I still have not so much spare time as I used to (and would like to have), but it's still better than nothing :) I really like how #fediverse allows to have so diverse sources in your timeline, I can have an eye on some communities/ecosystem by following only a few people from it, I can see when new video is published on #peertube channel and can enjoy some high quality photos from #pixelfed. Looking forward to see more activity pub enabled blogs.  @abcdw Same here. I wonder how one could enable ActivityPub comments on a static blog site?  The hard part about software development is not designing a perfect architecture, but making a good enough one, having tough time-constraints. Even if deadline is near keep you hacking schedule, do NOT work on weekends or in the evenings. More a reminder to myself, rather then piece of advice. @abcdw Looks interesting. We have been using Schema and do get similar benefits (already several years). #cljKondo seems to support https://plumatic.github.io/schema/schema.core.html#var-defn from what I gather, as well as basic type hints of #Clojure (I've probably bumped into them in a warning already). We've mostly used Schema for the API and DB layers so far, but gradual typing for core functions could be nice at this stage of the project. Let's help Protesilaos Stavrou find a job. If you are not familiar with him yet, he is a fantastic #emacs and foss contributor, author of modus themes, philosopher, b/vlogger and overall great humble hard-working man. https://protesilaos.com/news/2022-11-07-job-help-cv-story/ Boosts are very welcome. @abcdw I have a couple of ideas. E.g. I'm involved with a free, part-time code school here in Barcelona which would be entirely compatible with bar / shop work while he was studying. That way he could convert his obvious (& impressive) existing tech skills into something more marketable while still earning. So - is he here & if not, what's the best way to reach out?  @abcdw I am always terminally amazed by the ability of some people in the OSS world to extremely undersell their skills and abilities... Let's hope there is an org willing to sponsor work for the community. Moving to another country made it harder to stream regulary, I still haven't found an appartment for rent and work from arbitrary places, but I scheduled a stream for next week anyway. https://youtu.be/rx8_ZFv1IV0 It seems many old friends and people I interacted with somehow find me here by #TwitterMigration tag. I'm glad that migration to decentralized and ethical alternatives continues. BTW, there are decentralized alternatives to instagram, reddit, youtube, meetup and other platforms. All those alternatives are federated and can interact with mastodon and each other: Welcome to #fediverse ! Boosts are welcome.  @abcdw I wonder if #Lotide is on that list. It's a link aggregation and forum site like #Reddit, but it's less like #Reddit and more like #Hackernews. Very barebones and basic, even works perfectly with #JavaScript turned off.
This is the instance I'm on: narwhal.city (we definitely could use some more users 😅) Clojure was great, but it became even better, ecosystem improved a lot. Many things are polished now and work without any hassle. 😌 Built a fresh version of Guix Installation ISO for russians and other people, who can't access https://ci.guix.gnu.org. It uses http://ci.guix.trop.in proxy instead and contains an updated connection check, which fails iff both bordeaux and ci.guix.gnu.org are not available. Also, packaged jarchive, it allows to open files inside jars using special file path like: https://git.sr.ht/~abcdw/rde/commit/73c1faa227b9eb3cb4f01c5f04529bd2d1e54dc3 And now eglot+lsp-clojure have working goto definition for clojure code even if it comes from jars. Packaged clj-refactor, it's already available in #rde channel, will upstream it to #guix later. https://git.sr.ht/~abcdw/rde/commit/ef5fa58ce41a9b3ec85ed454878cbaadd3c2eea2 https://github.com/clojure-emacs/clj-refactor.el #emacs package for refactoring clojure code. It can sound silly, but it feels great, when you walk by policeman or police car and feel safe and you don't want to go away to the other side of the road or even further. @abcdw The process is much simplified when you already have an account at the service, which is why the network effect of Github is so strong: if you put your public repository on a different service it will be much more unlikely to receive contributions. After 5 days trip, almost without sleep, but with a help of great people we finally managed to get out of Russia. Everything is ok, I'm at Tbilisi (Georgia) now. I'm hugely sleep deprivated and have urgent things to do. Please, don't expect me to answer quickly or even at all in the next few days. Today I replied to one email and the rest of my productivity was blown out after I checked a messenger: Half of the chats are talking about Mobilization in Russia, which is started. I had a clear understanding of the tasks, I had a motivation and desire to work today, but I can't get back my focus to the project. BTW, I'm curious if it still illegal to call war war in Russia? |
