I have this small script running once a week that parses the #guix commit messages of the last week to generate me a list of what packages are new and which are updated, so it's easier for me to keep track if something interesting (or something I look forward to having in guix) is added to guix proper. I could have it compile a html table and publish the output as static html somewhere (a subpage on my website maybe? would also support RSS) relatively easy. Would people be interested in something like that? I wouldn't mind setting it up if it provides value to people other than myself.

@thees I think that'd be nice to have! Bonus point (me thinks) if somehow integrated in the official website? Not sure how practical that'd be though?

Finally moved my work machine to #guix system! It went surprisingly well as most of my set-up is free software anyways.

I had a requirement to be able to run docker (ugh) for maintaining compatiility to company-wide workflows as well as a debian VM out of the same reason (as we usually deploy to debian servers), and to be able to use nix to keep compatibility to my previous set-up.

Others than that I use gpg-agent as my ssh-agent instead of opensshs stock one, emacs as my computing/development environment, and a bunch of tooling for different programming languages.

It's quite nice to see that my favorite OS is a good fit for my work along the lines of software development, debugging and system administration as well!

One thing I noticed after having started using #guix more extensively on my personal computers, is, that it makes my computing experience much more personal in a way similiar to using #emacs does. This is mostly because gluing together a minimal and declarative computing environment using guile is awesomely fun.

Just found this card in a book from 1987 covering AI topics using Lisp I started to read as I have found it in an used books sale and it looked fun enough to give it a shot.
