@civodul I use a custom bootloader procedure that copies all files referenced by the GRUB configuration from the store to /boot. Allowing me to use an unencrypted /boot with Guix and performing decryption of / once from the initramfs: https://notes.8pit.net/notes/mwpp.html
That has worked out quite well for me personally. From a security perspective, I don't see much downsides as an attacker with physical access may as well compromise GRUB (instead of vmlinuz).
New pull request to add a #gunicorn service to #Guix.
Guix user? Run some Python web apps via gunicorn? This might be of interest: https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/pulls/6253
(Most of the work by my friend Arun, I've written the docs and created the PR.)

Recently generalized how I run LLMs using #guix - https://git.rekahsoft.ca/rekahsoft/guix-llms
This provides a containerized claude/codex/etc.. that I can use in various places as needed (mostly for work - as AI/LLMs are all the rage, and its worth while keeping up).
I do see a lot of value and utility in them, however still am very uncomfortable with issues around sovereignty, and what impact they will have on society in the long term - and motivations surrounding them.
Are you looking for a way to use #guix to work on your #ruby packages? Then do I have a project for you!
I finally got around to writing some words about my Guix Ruby project: https://carlo.zancanaro.id.au/posts/ruby-development-using-guix.html
It's a convenient way to sit inside the Ruby/Bundler ecosystem, but use Guix to manage your packages/shells.
If you happen to be in this niche intersection of interests, I'd love to hear if it works for you.
