  • Now that I’ve finished the first draft of an article on setting up rootless Podman on Guix System, I’m using and building out a set of tools to support a new article covering an all Red Hat stack from inner loop to CI.

    So far, it’s

    • OpenShift for the platform services run on
    • Podman for my local container engine
    • Podman Compose for inner loop development
    • OpenShift Pipelines for CI
    • Shipwright for building container images locally with Buildah
    • Quay for image scanning and storage
    • OpenShift Serverless for scale-to-zero deployments



  • Racket but I’ll take Guile Scheme as a close second. Then Hy, a lisp dialect of Python. I’m writing a blog written in a DSL of Racket right now, Pollen, that makes authoring a joyful experience. Hy gives me access to the entire Python ecosystem plus access to things like macros. Guile Scheme is the configuration language of the Linux distribution, Guix System. Guile’s G-Expressions are so powerful for writing packages.



  • I use and love Telegram. I use almost all of its features. All of its clients are open source. It has an incredible API for writing bots (which I also do). Their desktop Linux app is native! When I’m traveling I use Stories to share the experience with friends and family. I love the new topics to separate group discussions. It’s the one app I’ve been able to onboard absolutely everyone to. I was never able to do the same when I tried to with Matrix and you only get so many chances before people stop moving.

    What is crufty garbage to you?
