What is Hackers' Pub?

Maybe Meta’s Llama claims to be open source because of the EU AI act https://simonwillison.net/2025/Apr/19/llama-eu-ai-act/

No need to reinvent how blobs work—just add cryptographic access on top. Secure, simple, and flexible. Might prototype this soon.

To manage access, another XRPC: com.atproto.repo.manageBlobAccess. Add DIDs, optionally with expiry. List who has access. Revoke as needed.

You could enforce it with a transparent proxy in front of the PDS. Proxy checks the signature, notAfter, did, and nonce before letting the blob request through.

The XRPC looks like this: com.atproto.repo.signBlob. You give it a blob CID and a signed payload. It gives you a signed URL with an expiry and nonce. No global ACLs, just crypto and timing.

This unlocks use cases like private media, community-only access, and paid content - without changing blob storage itself. Everything rides on the URL signature

The idea: blobs could require a signed URL to fetch. First request? You get a 401. Then you hit an XRPC method to generate a signed URL tied to your DID. Use that to fetch the blob. Short-lived, verifiable, and secure.

Been thinking about how we could support access-controlled blobs in ATProtocol. Right now, all blobs are public - anyone can fetch them with a CID. But what if we could gate them? #atproto #atdev 🧵

reviewing the 2023 survey (2024 isn't out yet) and it shows that 50% of python devs surveyed work on solo projects, and 58% of surveyed devs are working at companies with <=500 employees. which seems… skewed, to me. Are there other sources for this kind of information? Are there any methodological critiques that go into more depth about how these numbers might not be representative? https://lp.jetbrains.com/python-developers-survey-2023/

Good morning Fedi friends!

So it is decided (and thank you for voting in yesterday's poll!)

I will create a series about "People of the Fediverse" - doing short, written interviews with fascinating people posting on here - across ages, nationalities and professions.

The impetus behind it? In a week I will start production of videos promoting the Fediverse and I won't have time anymore to write 2,000 word posts for #TheFutureIsFederated. Q&As are more manageable for the next 2 months 😅

Boy, busy weekend. Bee rescue today too. And helped someone load up a piano, I was pedaling by and saw they were really struggling moving it. #Bees #busy

We are going to update to Forgejo v11 tonight. We expect a brief interruption during the migration process. Our tests showed that everything should be back within a few minutes, though.

It's ok to block people and servers on the Fediverse without loudly threatening them first. Just jump straight to the part where you block them.

「快到了！、快到了！…」，是句爬山菜鳥最常聽到的話吧，我想。
到了沒？第一次爬這座山的，一定不太知道，就連第一次爬的老鳥應該也不會太確定。
這座山，我們都沒爬過，只是有些是經驗豐富，一直在這領域的，還有一群剛接觸大自然、關心環境…，任何理由來爬的。
「快到了！、快到了！」
快到了嗎？我想我們都不太確定、甚至不知道，但我們都可以互相鼓舞、激勵一起走下去⋯⋯
