Or you switch to a (modern, ie Scheme) lisp.

This is *so* nice to hear.

I love expressing myself in black and white and encourage others to also do that.

Of course, nothing is ever black or white.

The goal is to find the middle way, but imho it helps to know where everyone stands.

Senpai would imply sweety, no?

@hipsterelectron
So if I'm your mom then I'm not a sweety?

I've been saying for a couple of decades now that boredom is the single most powerful source of inspiration and creation.

Some thirty years ago, Debian was the most amizing thing you could imagine.

Since Eelco Dolstra's thisis some twenty years ago, we know better (or so I should hope!).

I know that Mastodon isn't available in GNU Guix just yet, as it is not (yet) bootstrappable. That is to say, the only way to build Mastodon is by using binary blobs during the build.

If anyone is interested in making Mastondon available in GNU Guix and thus making it truly bootstrappable, please do reach out to me.

I am convince that we'll reach this point eventually, whenever we find a pulling force to make this happen it might speed up things.

Zo'n dertig jaar geleden was Debian het meest waanzinnige wat je kon bedenken.

Sinds de thesis van Eelco Dolstra van twintig jaar geleden, weten we wel beter (althans, dat mag ik toch hopen!).

Ik weet dat Mastodon nog niet beschikbaar is op GNU Guix, omdat het (nog) niet te bootstrappen is. Dwz, de enige manier om Mastodon te hosten is door gebruik te maken van binary blobs tijdens de build.

Mocht iemand ooit behoefte hebben het proces Mastodon beschikbaar te maken in GNU Guix en dus werkelijk bootstrappable te maken, houd ik mij van harte aanbevolen.

Ik ben er van overtuigd dat we dat punt ooit gaan bereiken, als er een trekkende kracht opstaat gaat het wel veel sneller.

Not looking forward to/catering for a switch to the Hurd?

Not interested.

One more reason to name the child after the mother instead of after the most probable, or most socially acceptable, father.

Please replace the majority vote as an early stage democratic process with sociocracy.

With great power comes great responsibility.

Dezen paus lijkt mij zich dat te realiseren.

As a #vegan, and tbh also before, I would never ever bake in anything but olive oil, of course.

I have no problem with people showing their ignorance.

@RosaCtrl
Ah right, I get that. Not only would/could Guile be overkill, it also might be lacking functionality.

My choice for Guile is probably not rational. I came to love this free, modern, lisp, and will suffer through the growing pains.

Besides supporting a purely functional style, which matches with how my brain works, Guile's politics align with mine.

@RosaCtrl
From ~2000-2013 I used to say/use/prefer Python. Since 2014 I use/say/prefer Guile.

@RosaCtrl
Guile

And it depended on the proprietary QT library. Besides the fact that I don't use a DE, and if I had the time to use one the clutter of KDE would be unbearable, I'd never use it because of that false start.

@cwebber
A licence server for our sun cc was what drove me to the much, much more friendly gcc some 35y ago.

More license servers, please!
