Install Guix

but used responsibly
That’s like the most incredibly hard part of all of this. Everything is aligned so that you don’t use it responsibly. And it’s really hard to guard against this.
Just a few days ago, I was pairing with a coworker and he was using Claude to do a bunch of stuff. He didn’t check any of it. I thought he was gonna check stuff before pushing stuff… And nope! I said, “Wait, shouldn’t we review the changes to make sure they’re correct?” And he said, “Nah, it’s probably fine. I trust it. Plus, even if it’s wrong, we’ll just blame the AI and we can just fix it later.”
…
Yes, checking the work would have negated all of the “time saved” and he was being a lazy fuck.
People who don’t like coding or engineering use this and they are not interested in using this responsibly.
Been daily driving Arch on my laptops for the last 10 years. It’s been great. Getting the latest software has been especially handy for laptops, where the kernel sometimes needs time to catch up to the latest hardware.
I ran Guix for a few months when I had some extra time and I liked it, but it was very different and not all software I needed ran on it (or ran well). I ended up going back to Arch, but I brought Guix with me, as a package manager.
I also ended up trying Fedora for the first time (ok, I was unemployed) recently and was pleasantly surprised. Turns out Fedora is pretty close to how I configure Arch. And it’s got some extra polish that was neat. I ended up installing Fedora Silverblue for my parents 6-8 months ago and it’s been working out great for them.
Anyway, Arch has been my reliable companion for the last 10 years.
