Finally working on the squint browser REPL again. It's going to be based on vite which takes care of hot reload and vite will start the nREPL server too which you can REPL into with emacs etc, so it's going to be just vite dev.

We finally updated SBCL from 2.5.8 to 2.6.4 in Guix.
The process took three months, mostly waiting in the build queue!

Remember to donate to the Guix Foundation to improve the infrastructure:

The Game Jam is finished and I managed to complete Terra’s Heritage, though it was a close call:

Changes on the last day:

- simplified plot
- completed writing (about 5000 words in total, a single play through will hit about 1500 words)

You can try it right away on:

I hope you enjoy playing!

And Happy Towel Day!

Many new Guix users struggle to get the system installed with working WiFi. There are a couple things I've read about doing this, but I wasn't satisfied with any of the approaches I knew about, so I wrote my own.
