I just set up the cache so that you can now run the interpreter for Grace using:

$ nix run github:Gabriella439/grace -- repl

… and if you accept the prompts you'll download and run a cached binary and launch the REPL. Nix makes this pretty slick.

Of course you can do things other than launch the REPL. Just replace repl with --help to see the full set of options.

If you're new to Grace, check out the announcement post:

… or you can also try Grace in your browser:



garnix is a smol and free CI service for Nix that works really well for open source projects. You just add a flake.nix to your project and it starts building and caching your project. Did I mention that it's free (so far)?

The thing I love most about it is the minimal UX. I know that sort of thing is not for everyone, but I love that to death. I'm a big fan of "tacit" tools with very few options and minimal logging (if any).



One thing I didn't appreciate pre-HRT was that being more emotional would actually improve my self-regulation. It's like my emotions are safety mechanisms which were previously disabled/bypassed/overridden and now they're re-enabled. I no longer push myself too far nor do I do things as compulsively as I used to and I'm also less likely to do risky things I'll regret later
