Wahoo Kickr Run Review: a (Mostly) Screen-Free Treadmill

wired.com Parker Hall 2025-11-02 10:32:00

Ask any serious runner and they’ll tell you that treadmills are usually the bane of their existence. Alas, for folks who don’t live in Mediterranean climates, they’re a necessary winter evil that keeps us fitter in the off-season, but not necessarily happier. The no-frills design of the Wahoo Kickr Run, plus a magical mode that allows it to track your pace without touching a button, is what makes it the most real-pavement-seeming treadmill I have ever run on.

GNU Artanis – A fast web application framework for Scheme

More seriously, Artanis is written using GNU Guile, one of the best implementations of Scheme language. One day, the folks at GNU were discussing what language they would write the GNU website in - and many chose Python. But I found that strange, because the official extension language of GNU is GNU Guile. And I wondered aloud - why not start a brand new project to provide a web framework written with GNU Guile?
