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.

Companies are refusing to hire or even laying off plumbers because hucksters backed by massive unicorn-chasing investment money told them they can build plumbing faster and cheaper out of cardboard.

A few years from now, there’s going to be a hell of a market for people who can replace cardboard toilets with real ones.

And also for people who can replace carpets. And walls and floors.

This is a post about LLM-generated code.

Professor Gina Neff of Queen Mary University London told the BBC ChatGPT is "burning through energy", and the data centres used to power it consume more electricity in a year than 117 countries. But, of course Microsoft, OpenAI and tech bros don’t care. Source bbc.com/news/articles/c5yg690e

On the left, a picture of Zoe. She is smiling. She has shoulder-length blonde hair, a blue jacket and a silver necklace. On the right, an image generated using ChatGPT of a doll-like version of her. The doll has the same clothes and necklace - but has morphed her dark eyes into a light green, and darkened her hair.

ChatGPT AI action dolls: Concerns around the Barbie-like viral social trend

As online users create Barbie-like dolls of themselves, experts urge caution over AI's energy and data use.

일본에서 일본인 지인들이랑 밥 먹을 때 와리깡하면서 현금으로만 내봤지 혹시 현금이체나 페이페이 같은걸로 보내도 될까? 했을 때 잠깐잠깐 느껴졌던 느낌 읽으면 대체적으로 그냥 현금으로 직접 주는게 확실한거 같음.

문화의 차이겠지만 상대방이 먼저 현금이체나 페이페이 같은 같은걸 요구하지 않는 이상 일본에선 감히 물어보는게 아닌거 같음...

특히 금융관련된 회사에서 일해도 이 분위기는 달라지지 않는게 좀 신기하긴 함

I have several little sites that use the Mastodon API just sitting unfinished. Here's one that attempts to put a user friendly UI on the advanced search (elasticsearch) options if your server supports it.

"If your server supports it" is where I'm stuck. There's no /api/vX/instance or nodeinfo fields that identify if the server has it enabled.

A login is required to test for it...so I have to ask the user to login, then tell them LOL NO JK your instance doesn't support this.

Screenshot of a Mastodon interface showcasing the "Advanced Search" feature. The section includes options for searching "All," "Images," "Videos," "Links," and "Polls." A recent post titled "Your Dog Will Love This Anxiety-Busting Cuddle Companion" is displayed, along with user handles and timestamps.

터보 엔진 차의, 엑셀을 내려밟았을 때 토크가 터져나오기까지 걸리는 터보 랙이 좋다. 디젤은 진동이 먼저 와서 약간 맛이 덜하고 가솔린 터보가 가장 즐거움. 자연흡기의 빠른 반응도 좋지만 역시 터보 터질 때의 토크감이 최고야. 토크는 전기차도 좋지만 얘네는 리니어해서 감각이 다르고.

V8, V6 좋긴 한데 역시 터보로 직렬 4기통을 쥐어짜는 감각이 더 좋음. 이건 내가 WRC를 좋아해서 그런 거겠지만. 거기 요즘 인기가 시들해서 슬퍼...; 현대차 힘내라, 하는 김에 i20 한국 발매도 좀 안 될까? ㅎㅎ;
