Back from two weeks of vacation fully unplugged. The bliss of not knowing what’s going on!
Dear #OpenScience, #HPC, and/or #Guix people: now’s the time to (1) save the date of the upcoming Workshop on Reproducible Software Environments for Research and High-Performance Computing, and (2) propose a talk!
Guix-HPC — Workshop on Reproducible Software Environments for Research and High-Performance Computing
 📅 Nov. 8–10, 2023 🗺 Montpellier, France
Summer project idea for you, intrepid hacker: (1) port Zuo’s ‘make’ interface
3 Zuo as a make Replacement
 to Guile + Gash, (2) add a Guix backend mapping each target to a derivation, in the spirit of Eelco Dolstra’s Nix-based Make replacement (Chapter 10 of the PhD thesis).
The 🐑 #Shepherd 0.10.2 is out, with fewer 🐛 bugs!

Reproducible research hackathon: experience report
 Report on a one-day hackathon to use #Guix to reproduce computational experiments published in ReScience C. #ReproducibleResearch #OpenScience
Interesting #ReproducibleBuilds issue: npm package installation depends on whether source files have hard links, making it stateful (or “non-deterministic” depending on how you look at it).
npm has irreproducible install behavior

Integrating #ZeroMQ (specifically Guile-Simple-ZMQ) with #Fibers turned out to be easier than expected:
