Hacker Public Radio (podcast) interview about Guix

Hacker Public Radio (podcast) interview about Guix

[Christopher Allan Webber]

Hello!  In late 2015 I was interviewed about Guix for Hacker Public
Radio.  Obviously, a lot has happened since then, but the ideas are
still relevant.  This is mainly aimed at people who are interested in
what Guix is and have maybe never even heard of what functional package
management is, and I think it covers that well enough.  But I think it
will still also be fun for seasoned Guix hackers who like to hear people
talk about Guix. ;)

It's not a perfect interview, but I do think it's a lot of fun.
Hopefully you enjoy it!

I listened to it the other day and found it super interesting and fun!
I like the description of how you came to Guile and Guix, the intro to
functional programming, and the great overview of Guix.

Recommended!  :-)
