We develop rde on sourcehut, but there is a mirror on github and recently I realized that it has 185 stars already:
https://github.com/abcdw/rde

How many it is?

Do you know other small to medium sized projects, which only mirrors on github?

A talk on guix and rde for @SeaGL conference is approved!

#guix #rde #lisp #scheme

One of the most popular distributions based on GNU Guix turned 3000 commits, wow!

We added Sway Notification Center to rde and slightly integrated it with Emacs.

It is keyboard controllable, has do not disturb mode, notifications are actionable.

Finally, I can do other things while waiting for compilation to complete and get back to work as soon as it finished.

I'm preparing a dev environment for my modern lisps course for lalambda summer school and it's actually a pleasure. I constructed it in 30 lines of code and students only need to have guix installed, that's it.

Submitted an application for Sovereign Tech Fund 2023.

There are 3 primary directions of work, which all are aimed at improving Guile and Guix developers experience:
- State management API for rde and guix.
- nREPL implementation for Guile.
- deps.scm for convinient dependency, load-paths managment and better integration for language entities with CLI.

@mianmoreno made a thread on real-world rde configurations examples. Don't hesitate to press reply to thread button and share your.

There is a config by authors of dwl-guile and a few more quite interesting ones.

We added EXWM to rde, so if you want to try out rde, but don't want to switch to wayland yet - you have an option now! :)

Tonight a few friends sent me a message that #rde is on a front page of Hacker News. Is it something good?

We plan a small online rde meetup on May 13 and here is a CFP:

Bring your own talks and questions on #emacs, #guix, #rde and related tools and workflows.

Today I received the first payment for the Free and Open Source Software work. It's of course is not a sustainable business yet, but a good step towards.

Ask me anything.

rde-flavored guix system service for Nginx.

Flexible, programmable and extendable.

Pretty, isn't it?

#guix #rde #nginx #guile #scheme #lisp

In less than a hour we will start implementing nginx guix service. It is different from one provided in guix repo and I'll explain why.

One of the nice results for this week: 6 more people installed #guix and #rde Emacs.

I still on a business trip in Turkey, have a few opportunities discussed, all of them related to lisp and Guix, we haven't signed any contracts yet, so will share the results later. Ask questions if you are curious about particular topic.

In the meanwhile, I do a stream tomorrow: https://trop.in/stream

Come and join the nice talk and live codding session.

Guix System for PinePhone Pro:

Wifi, sound, calls and all the stuff should work, however, I tested only wifi connectivity.

Ouch, I'm a little overwhelmed with a number of contributions to #rde for the last week. I read and replied only half of them, but there are more patches waiting for review in my backlog and guix-devel.

https://lists.sr.ht/~abcdw/rde-devel?page=1

It doesn't include commits going straight to the repo:
https://git.sr.ht/~abcdw/rde/log

Do anyone know how to solve scalability issues of Andrew?

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.
