Day 0

• First day at ~vern. Thanks to ~vern staff for membership acceptance.
• Learned to add and remove packages to the user nix profile.
• Set up a very basic dev space with some packages and shell aliases.
• Added a tmux config in ~vern colours.
• Packages: go, nim, nimble, polyml
• Had a bit of trouble installing nimble, package listed yet not found.
• Workaround 1: built flake-nimble off-band, `nimble install`.
• Workaround 2: fetch binaries from official website and Nimble source repo.
• Started a gemini log with gemwriter.
• Felt great to ssh into a clean ~ dir.
