TIL about very nice micro service called https://forwarddomain.net/
It allows to make a redirect from your domain to a particular web page using only DNS records. No webserver of VPS setup is needed.

Do you see my posts in Russian, when I reply to threads with 🔒 type?

Fun fact: After calling `join-thread`, you still can get #f from `thread-exited?`

This is how 30 hours of my work on guile-nrepl this week looks like:

Launching containers using shepherd, it's like docker-compose for your project, but on steroids!

You can try a GNU Hurd kernel based operating system made with Guix in your browser:

@npub19f8…qhf8 @npub19k5…yrkx I guess I'll use zotero traslation-server + zotra + org-protocol
But need to properly package translation-server for guix first :)

@npub17p8…z2p6 Seems useful, probably it's a slightly different workflow from what I'm looking for. Thank you for sharing!

@npub19k5…yrkx Capturing bibliography entries is the exactly what I'm puzzled with at the moment!
Thank you very much for the link, really promising.
I also found https://github.com/yantar92/org-capture-ref a few minutes ago, but IDK how good it is.

Trying to set up a bibliography and article note-taking workflow with org-roam, org-cite and citar. Looks quite hard so far.

Also, I would like to see your toolbelt and how you program in #scheme.

I have guile-nrepl, rde, guix and a hundreds of related tasks.
Probably I would like to do something guile-nrepl related.
https://git.sr.ht/~abcdw/guile-nrepl
Need to write integration tests, learn more about fibers, add interrupt op, improve session management, maybe add middlewares.

During the following month I want to make a few pair programming sessions (one, maybe two per week) with different people.
1. To work more focused on particular tasks and projects.
2. To see how other people work and learn from peers.
3. To share some experience.
4. To cleanup and optimize inefficient workflows.
5. To talk with folks in person, not only via toots/emails.
Like 1-2 hours informal coding session.
Ping me if you would like to hack with me! :)

@npub1r4m…968p Swapping capslock and control key probably is the simplest solution that can drastically improve the ergonomics in this case.

Through my life I have visited around 20 countries and I dream someday to write down my trips somewhere.
One of the tools I found for this matter is this nice FOSS web frontend project on top of OpenStreetMaps:
https://leafletjs.com/
It doesn't mean I would go crafting some travel blog now, just like to share cool FLOSS projects.

Discussing privacy, ethics and knowing about and controlling what programs does I was told a few times in my life that there is no much difference between Open Source and Proprietary Software.
> Because linux, chromium, jdk is so complicated that nobody can comprehend them and this implies that there are a lot of backdoors, telemetry, CVEs(?) or whatever malicious or potentially dangerous functionality in this software as well.

I like articles that were written more than 10 years ago, but are still relevant. This is true ever green content.

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.
