If I could recommend just 1 non-fiction book that I read in 2025 it would be Moral Ambition by Rutger Bregman.
It left me energized and clear-eyed with a new perspective on my own values. It's the my only re-read of the year and I'll read it again.

Today I learned Lix has an installer that's based off the determinate systems one now.
So now, you can install Lix with this command:
```shell
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.lix.systems/lix | sh -s -- install
```
Nice!

I just found `nix-portable`, a way to run Nix as a static executable from any linux system.
Cool!

Today I learned how to also show the time in mu4e's email list.
This is how you do it:
```elisp
(setq mu4e-headers-date-format "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M")
(setq mu4e-headers-fields
'((:human-date . 18) ; this needs to be there
(:flags . 6)
(:from . 22)
(:subject)))
```
This is how you do it:
```elisp
(setq mu4e-headers-date-format "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M")
(setq mu4e-headers-fields
'((:human-date . 18) ; this needs to be there
(:flags . 6)

Today I finally watched A Language Server for your DSL for Fun and Profit, which was a pretty nice talk.
In the talk, he mentions L4—it's a Specification Language for legal systems.
Looks interesting!

Today I found out that Randall's got a blog, too:

Maybe I was one of those lucky ten thousand today ^^
(And yes, I know, it's more like 300 000 if you assume it to be world wide)

Lol. Just now I learned that git hooks are actually internal to git.
Just take a look at `.git/hooks/` in your repo:
git-scm.com/book/ms/v2/C...
(makes _so_ much sense, I know, I know)
