Time to get back to creating in 2025! Finally dusted off this old draft about the struggle of easy consumption vs actually creating something: https://9bladed.com/essay/2025-01-26-creation/ (or if you prefer to get emails, for now you can use Substack: https://open.substack.com/pub/wanderingmind/p/consume-or-create)
Consume Or Create?

The first draft of this was in the fall… of 2022. Lots more to say here, but obviously the issues of procrastination, perfectionism, and general time

As far as I know, #Guix is not vulnerable to the xz backdoor. For one, we are on a much older version 😂 , along with not fitting what we know of how the backdoor is deployed (package type, systemd, argv[0]).
