So, I guess I figured out via bisecting the issue with the recent #Guix CVEs, the abstract Unix socket vulnerability. It seemed like it bisected to the update of the #Guile package to 3.0.9. Indeed, that's because Guile 3.0.9 was what added abstract Unix socket support!

Poking around with #Guix on MSYS2; I like that running `./configure` on an unsupported platform has a simple `--with-courage` override flag. Looks like, although #Guile is available on Windows via mingw, guile-gnutls is not, and doesn't readily build, so that's the current stumbling block.

Interested in #Guix and/or #Guile? In or around #London?

Join us for our next in-person meetup next week, Thu 26th Feb, from 6pm.

When: Thu 26th Feb, from 6pm
Where: 20 Farringdon St, EC4A 4AB

Would you help me spread the work with a little RT? Plsss!!! 🙏 🐱

This is a pretty interesting chart! I'm curious how many people would be eager to start hacking around with #guile if we had #VSCode and #Vim IDE frontends in addition to Emacs' one?

We have next RDE meetup in one week (February 26, 12:00 CEST) and you are very welcome to join! Among possible topics:
- Guile development outside of Emacs (Vim, VScodium?).
- FOSDEM, Guix Days recap.
- New RDE Internship.
- and more in the full announcement 👇

Libfive.com seems super cool! Using scheme to create a 3d model! Wow! #guile

Please welcome Guile Hoot in Debian #guile https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/guile-hoot

Thank you to these Free Software projects I use every day (and to those I know I'm forgetting):
#bash #btrfs #glibc #gnucoreutils #guile #htop #keyd #kitty #labwc #librewolf #man #mvp #python #sudo #tmux #tty-clock #vim #voidlinux #waybar #zathura

I think one example from the docs that made me trip was this:

(list ("ENV_VAR1" . "value1")
("ENV_VAR2" . "value2"))

I think it's supposed to be an alist, but evaluating it produces a syntax error. To be an alist, IIUC, it should be either

(list (cons "ENV_VAR1" "value1")
(cons "ENV_VAR2" "value2"))

or

'(("ENV_VAR1" . "value1")
("ENV_VAR2" . "value2"))

The latter is used in other parts of the docs though.

What is current best way to debug #Guile Scheme programs? I find geiser to be inadequate.

Still hooked on BLUE. Hacked all day yesterday and today converting Dezyne's (https://dezyne.org) build system. Opened six issues, and two pull requests, one already merged.

It's not perfect *just* yet, in fact, some issues are show-stoppers for BLUE to replace Autotools for Dezyne, which has a pretty "interesting" build system.

I would very much recommend to anyone who has a soft-spot for build-systems and/or Guile to take a look.

However, the experience of hacking a build system in Guile is amazing! And I'm certain the show-stoppers will be resolved some time soon.

@momo cool!

Well then, please have a listen to the episodes of the #LispyGopherClimate podcast that me, @kentpitman and @screwlisp did these past few weeks:

#tech #software #Lisp #CommonLisp #Scheme #SchemeLang #R7RS #MITScheme #Guile #GuileScheme

@screwlisp @kentpitman I’m just reading up on the MIT-Scheme condition system. Recent efforts to standardize this are defined in SRFI-255: “Restarting conditions”.

An older standards condition systems in Scheme was defined in SRFI-35: “Conditions”. And #Guile users can use the Guile implementation of SRFI-35 to make use of it.

I wish I had known about this two weeks ago when we first started talking about it on the #LispyGopherClimate show, but better late than never, I guess.

@futurile @ekaitz_zarraga Exactly, Ilya removed clojure specific checks from conjure and just connected to Ares and it worked.

#vim #nrepl #nvim #guile

Wonderful talk by @cwebber on why “Lisp is clay”, to share with all the paren-skepticals!

#Guile #Scheme #Lisp

Great talk (and demos!) by @wingo on compiling wasm to native via C.

Looking forward to the Scheme->wasm->native pipeline in #Guile. :-)

so, apparently hacking #scheme is going to get even more fun with B.L.U.E., a sane, extendable, lisp-y l, agnostic build system and #Ares, the interactive hacking tool we always sensed was missing from our work. Yes, we now have insightful backtraces in #guile!

The future has come!

Guile development outside #Emacs. Jessica Tallon from @spritely talking about the development experience in #guile #scheme

https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/EKEFUU-guileoutsideofemacs/

When I was doing #clojure being able to use Visual Studio Code with the Calva plugin was game changing! So useful that you don't have to learn an editor to learn a programming language!
