What is Hackers' Pub?

Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.

I’m one of those people that are really obsessed with reducing my food waste, but I HATE that it’s becoming this moralized thing, you’re not superior for using some bougie app or not throwing away food ocassionally or whatever, your consumption probably doesn’t impact anything, it’s capitalist realism to think consumer preferences can save the universe (spoiler: you don’t matter in the slightest, industry sets the pace of universe destruction, no matter how cute the label is on whatever you’re eating or throwin away or whatever).

The actual reason to stop food waste is because it’s kinda expensive, and idk, makes you more creative or whatever. It really doesn’t make you a good person, you’re probably a bad person if you think that being good means just reducing your food waste.

One year ago I published my third and best photo book to date. Vancouver Sun gave it a great review and I have sold copies worlwide. If you love nature and wildlife and are curious about Vancouver Island, this book has photos of bears, whales, otters, birds, etc. and landscapes.
You can only order it from me (not avail. on Amazon or other big corporations) so you're not enriching a billionaire but supporting a small business owned by a woman.
Order here catherinebabault.com/book/wild

Cover of the book with a black bear filling up most of the frame. The bear stands on a rocky shoreline and looks at the camera.

Imperial war

In the current aggressive imperialism of the US, some Americans online insist that they don't approve of war and shouldn't be lumped in with the Americans who are banging the drums for war.

It's not the job of Canadians, Kalaallit (Greenlanders), Panamanians or Gazans to make you feel better and absolve you personally of complicity in potential invasions. We have other things to do.

It's *your* job to make sure the wars don't happen. Stopping wars is hard; you need to start now.

아날로그 호러인데, 아날로그가 아니라 16:9 비율 FHD 화질의 공공기관에서 만든 교육 동영상 느낌의 호러물 나왔으면 좋겠음
경쾌한 음악으로 시작하면서 교육 영상 특유의 거지같은 디자인과 그래픽 효과가 튀어나오는 호러물

시맨틱 커널에서 MCP 받아서 통합하는 과정을 보면 딱 펑션콜링 과정하고 똑같음.

MCP의 이름에서 알 수 있다시피 LLM에 컨텍스트를 추가하는 도구이고, 그걸 하나의 규약(프로토콜)로 정해둔 것임.

MCP 웹사이트 문서 첫 문장에 USB 커넥터 얘기 나오니까 다들 USB 커넥터로 설명하려고 하는데,

개인적으로는 데이터 관점에서 볼 때 RAG 패턴 구현을 엄청나게 쉽게 해주는 도구 정도로 이해하고 있음. 어쩌면 지금까지의 RAG 패턴 구현 패러다임이 MCP로 인해서 바뀔 수도 있음.

물론, MCP는 RAG 보다 훨씬 더 많은 영역을 커버할테고.

This newbie who just celebrated 100 days of was able to install and on her VPS (to prevent the "Mastodon Hug of Death" for link preview cards on her self-hosted Ghost blog). She's very proud of herself for all the sudo commands she successfully ran today. And she's weirded out talking about herself in the third person, so: I did it YAY.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this Linux / self-hosting journey I'm on. Thank you for all your support & encouragement ❤️

Thinking about Miyazaki and the way that his animation uses nostalgia. A good friend who grew up in South Korea surprised me when she said she couldn't stand "Ghibli Stuff" from her perspective it was laden with all of these very Japanese nostalgic touchstones, brands, technologies, tropes. She said it reminded her of "Leave it to Beaver" or "Art Deco Denis the Menace" --And right away I could see exactly what she meant. It's just for me the cues didn't land because I didn't have the proximity.

社群平台上有網友指出,這棟大樓是泰國國家審計局,承建單位是中國公司「中鐵十局」。

Project prompt:

You have ~1 hour of audio that you want to play on a loop in a small room indefinitely. Doesn't have to sound amazing, just there to set a vibe. Power is available. What do you use?

(Not looking for help, I just did this myself - I'm curious how you all would do this in 2025!)

My mind has been blown.

In "A Tour of C++", Stroustrup reminds the reader that type casting is called "cast" so that you know it's a crutch, to hold something broken together.

With English not being my first language, I grew up discovering "casting" and thought of it as a magic trick as a young teen.

Over the years, I also discovered the use of "cast iron pans" and "orthopedic casts".

I never again thought about type casting; it was a term of art by then. But of course it's still a metaphor

인조이 플레이 후기 1. 동성커플의 호칭이 '배우자'로 확인됨 영어로는 '파트너'라고 뜨는 건 번역 이슈가 맞는 듯 2. 스토리 있는 NPC 훝어본 결과 맵 마다 싱글 맘/대디, 이민자, 퀴어커플을 하나 씩 넣어놨음 다양성을 신경 쓰긴 한 듯 3. 랜덤 동성애자 NPC가 잘 확인 안되는 버그 있음 (아예 없는진 모르겠는데 적은 건 확실) 4. FtM 조이 플레이 짧게 해봤는데 남자로 인식 잘 하는 듯 함 (더 플레이 해봐야 함)

남들이 맞다면 나도 맞다고 믿고 싶고, 남들이 하면 나도 생각 없이 따라 하고 싶어진다. 그러면 많은 것이 편해질 것이다. 하지만 그 편안함과 즐거움이 과연 나 자신에게 얼마나 도움이 될 수 있을까. 그 관성을 조금만 더 조절할 힘을 기르고 싶다. 모두가 믿는 것이 아닌, 내가 믿는 것에 대해 더 오래 생각해보기로 한다.

— 늘 경계해왔던, 대중에 호소하는 오류에 대해 생각을 풀어보았다. https://cojette.github.io/posts/populum/

개발자로 살아갈 시간이, 10년채 안남았다고 생각하면 서글퍼지기도 합니다만, 10년이나 남았다고 생각하면 그때까지 최선을 다하고 싶기도 합니다.
Dear Great Hackers, 즐거운 주말되세요! 😆
