Got a first review for my 10-year-reproducibility-challenge submission: github.com/ReScience/submissio

Highlight: “The current code is based on Scheme, a variant of LISP, which is notoriously very readable, nearly as it were a text in english.” See? :-)

JavaScript on webpages, bringing all important usability issues and bugs to your browser.

In all seriousness, Grafana is more difficult to use now there's more JavaScript trying to "help" you.

Challenge for tonight was to work out why the Guix build tool I'm working on isn't building things, and this query appears to do the trick 😁

I wrote it as one long line, I used some (not great) online SQL formatter for sharing.

Another month passes, and I've sent another overly lengthy email to -devel on the subject of data.guix.gnu.org and the Guix Data Service.

The highlight this month is that Danjela is going to be working on the Guix Data Service as part of an internship, which I'm particularly excited about :)

Finally submitted my replication of a 13-year-old article to #ReScience, largely for the excitement of creating a complete #Guix pipeline from source code to PDF:

Some web stuff is pretty bad, I'm trying to build the frontend assets for , and it's using more than 2GB of memory, and 1GB of swap...

Not the first time I've installed or the graphical installer, but I'm excited to use the installer again for the 1.1 release!

Another month, another update on data.guix.gnu.org/ :
lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gui

I'm pretty excited about some of the speed improvements, and it's nice that generating the database dumps is finally automated!
