@fsf @conservancy @fsfe #GNU Mes 0.24 released, closing the gap with Stage0: the Full Source Bootstrap is here!
The @GuixHPC package graph is now rooted in hex0, a 357-byte binary & ASCII-equivalent https://github.com/oriansj/bootstrap-seeds/blob/master/POSIX/x86/hex0_x86.hex0…

Today it's been 10 years since the first #GNU #Guix commit! 🎂
Some of the 600+ people who made it possible wrote their story:
👉 https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2022/10-years-of-stories-behind-guix/
🎉 🥳 👏 #FreeSoftware #Guix10Years
We've just published the Guix-HPC annual report!
👉 https://hpc.guix.info/blog/2022/02/guix-hpc-activity-report-2021/
See how we support #ReproducibleResearch workflows, from core #Guix work to #SoftwareHeritage support to #Jupyter integration and more.
No less than 5 talks around #GNU #Guix at #FOSDEM this week-end! 🎉
👉 https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2022/meet-guix-at-fosdem-2022/
… and a bunch of other exciting talks on the same track, including very Lispy nerdy things I won’t miss!
With #FOSDEM around the corner, we are proud to support 20+ projects and creators on the program this year. Check out their work and see you there! -> https://nlnet.nl/events/20220205/FOSDEM/index.html
Also at #FOSDEM, @mothacehe will share experience running #Guix on a variety of devices:

Lotta exciting stuff: #RISCV, #Guix Home, #Guix continuous integration, thoughts on #Lisp syntax, #Spritely on #Guile, ccwl, and more! 👍
Hey #guix! We're preparing a documentation meetup this Saturday, January 15 at 10:30am ET (15:30 UTC). This is the right time to learn about guix, share your knowledge and improve documentation in general. See you soon!
Announcing the next #Guix Days!
Let's meet for two days in February to talk about Guix and its community! This event is part of a series of events this year that celebrate the tenth anniversary of Guix. More to come :)
https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2022/online-guix-days-2022-announcement-1/
We welcome any topic related to Guix, so don't hesitate to submit a talk! You have until February 8 to submit a proposal, but the sooner you submit, the sooner you'll be notified, and the more time you'll have. Don't wait!

“5 Reasons to Try #GNU #Guix in 2022”

… by System Crafters’ @daviwil. 👍
“Tuning packages for a CPU micro-architecture”
👉 https://hpc.guix.info/blog/2022/01/tuning-packages-for-a-cpu-micro-architecture/
Or how Guix’s new ‘--tune’ option allows #HPC users to get SIMD optimizations without giving up on #reproducibility.
I sent a couple of patches to fix GNOME Bluetooth integration in Guix System. I now have a fully functional GNOME 40 setup. Feels nice!
Merged support for “package multi-versioning”, where packages are tuned for the host CPU and its SIMD extensions:
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/52283
Tuning without giving up on (1) reproducibility and (2) pre-built binaries.
Today is solstice, and it’s #Guix infrastructure hackathon day!

If you have sysadmin and/or Guix System experience, you can join the party!
“Decentralized substitute distribution with ERIS”
👉 https://issues.guix.gnu.org/52555
In which @pukkamustard shows how #Guix could benefit from #ERIS and #IPFS or some other p2p transport.
Great work supported by @NGIZero! 👍
