<galex-713>davexunit, hi, how’s going Sly

<galex-713>(I’ve got an X200 so normally I should be able to run sly)

<galex-713>davexunit, btw, your certificate is outdated

<ArneBab_>what does it mean when my compile of Guile 2.2.2 says madvice failed: Function not implemented ← this is on the Hurd

<ArneBab_>or rather: is that a fatal defect?

<nalaginrut>ArneBab: ah, you're playing Hurd again

<sneek>nalaginrut, you have 1 message.

<sneek>nalaginrut, amz3 says: I'd like to improve support of guile-git for your use case? Can you describe in more details the design of the file based database?

<cmaloney>tzag

<nalaginrut>sneek: later tell amz3 I found it's easier to use pipe for git operation rather than using guile-git, and the blog engine is almost done, compatible with tekuti. Fortunately, Artanis works smoothly.

<sneek>Will do.

<ArneBab>nalaginrut: yes. It works and with -enable-kvm it’s nice and fast.

<ArneBab>nalaginrut: and I can make subhurds: boot a hurd in a hurd.

<paroneayea>hello #guile

<atw>ArneBab: what hurd stuff are you doing?

<paroneayea>o/

<civodul>howdy paroneayea!

<paroneayea>hi civodul :)

<paroneayea>civodul: how you doin?

<civodul>i'm fine, thanks!

<civodul>feeling too busy for these sunny days

<civodul>and you, how's everything?

<paroneayea>civodul: things are pretty good... no meetings today because USA holiday means I am getting things done ;)

<paroneayea>civodul: some more people are doing activitypub implementations, which is good. I nearly have the first part (ha) of the test suite ready to go, which also means that Pubstrate as an actual implementation itself is also getting pretty nice

<civodul>oh right, July 4th

<civodul>nice that there are more implementations!

<civodul>i guess that's one of the key things, getting more people to try out the spec

<paroneayea>yeah

<civodul>and they're testing against your server, right?

<paroneayea>civodul: testing against the test suite. technically, I'm writing two things right now, and unfortunately they're both in the pubstrate package for timing reasons

<paroneayea> - the test suite (which borrows a lot from pubstrate's general code, and has some stub fake-activitypub bits in it)

<paroneayea> - the actual activitypub server

<civodul>i see

<paroneayea>but pubstrate is coming along pretty nicely. doesn't transcode or do any of the fancy media processing of mediagoblin, but it can display those types of image/video/etc http://dustycloud.org/gfx/goodies/video-in-pubstrate.png

<paroneayea> http://dustycloud.org/tmp/pubstrate-ellen-terry.png

<paroneayea>I really need to redo the database stuff though

<paroneayea>it's currently using... erk... gdbm :)

<paroneayea>I'd like to switch it over to postgres and use postgres' jsonb support

<paroneayea>need to get that supported in guile-squee or something though, not a lot of time for that

<paroneayea>last night my brother came over and we watched wingo's recent talk on fibers and csp, which was nice. spent a good amount of time talking about it

<paroneayea>I still need to test implementing 8sync on top of Fibers. only so much time though...

<paroneayea>civodul: guix seems to be going nicely lately!

<civodul>oh, nice screenshots

<civodul>Guix is doing nicely though there so many things to address!

<paroneayea>I guess that happens with ambitious projects :)

<civodul>:-)

<civodul>i haven't seen wingo's talk yet, but definitely something i should do

<civodul>we don't get wingo talks in the "usual" venues anymore ;-)

<civodul>ACTION -> zZz
