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.
So, my #hydration backpack arrived today.
I've adjusted it, so it fits nicely, removed the elastics that came with it for holding poles and the bladder has been washed and is drying in the kitchen.
The acid test will be taking it out for a run, and seeing how it feels, with my bits in it and getting used to being a dromedary.
The bladder that I got, holds 2 litres of water, I will likely only half fill it, not that i'll need that much, but mainly to see what that is like.
1. It is time that countries begin accepting trans refugees from the United States.
Refuge has always been a defining act in times of political persecution—this is one of those moments. History will remember who opens the door.
I make the case in my latest.

"There is almost no proof that Vance is responsible for the death of Pope Francis. All we know is that the vice president met with the pope, and a few hours later, the pope was dead. To draw a line between those two facts would almost definitely be a little bit premature."

terminology poll: what would you call the part of the operating system that is responsible for managing the pseudoterminal device? (handling ioctls, tracking the foreground process, remembering the terminal window size, turning `Ctrl+C` into a SIGTERM, handling `Ctrl+S` and `Ctrl+W`, etc)
(also open to hearing that you think that it's not just one thing or anything else really)

In low-key important space news, part of the Northrop Grumman (ex-Orbital ATK, ex-Morton Thiokol) facility that makes large solid rockets blew up last week. That could have significant schedule impacts to SLS and Vulcan.
that is like, i think a tough part of the problem here is that a blue check and a green lock are perceived differently by people, even if they are technically isomorphic

We took some of the left-over limes at #eh22, and are wondering what to do with them!
And clearly, the first thing to make is: puns. Can you help us out?
"Why didn't you queue up to get a fruit salad at the cafeteria?"
"Because of the long limes"

Today, I'm happy to be starting at Fastly!!
I'll be working on the StarlingMonkey team--a JS runtime/SDK that runs on WASM!
I always dreamed of becoming a compiler hacker, and I guess I finally made it :P
I might also be showing up in e.g. TC39 (again) and/or WinterTC, depending.
LFGGGGGGG

YouTube、PCでのホーム画面のサムネイルサイズ変わった。
もうさ仕様変更するたびどんどんサムネイルデカくなるのやめて欲しい・・・
今まで75%表示にして耐えてたのに遂に、倍率を下げてもデカいままになった・・・
最悪すぎ・・・
About 1% of accounts on Bluesky use their own domain name.
I'm Malusdraco, a hobbyist artist who does IT for a living, but you can call me Malus!
I don't talk about it a lot but I'm proudly #nonbinary and #aromantic #asexual.
I'm into way too many things to list here, but this is the only social media platform where i post a lot of my #art. (I'm also Malusdraco on toyhouse if you're on there, which is the only other place i post art).
Frequent topics are:
- griping at cybersecurity and tech news
- being enthusiastic about wrestling, tokusatsu, and horror
- trying to sort through my feelings on various social ills i have strong opinions of in a way that is sparking a conversation instead of just lashing out into the void (a practice which i ALSO have strong opinions about)
- cat pics :3
Looking for other artists to follow, but don't want to see genAI images, and will only share images with alt text!
obviously labelers don't support delegation directly yet, but as a proto nerd, would have liked to have heard more technical details here
okay so initial poking around: * no records in my PDS (makes sense) * doesn't appear to be a labeller so I'm guessing this is 100% 'off-proto' right now. I guess that makes sense in the same way as DMs, that is, ship feature and then backfill 'on-proto', but I am curious why in this case

I think we have to draw a lime at some point. This got out of hand. #eh22limes
recently I changed my shell on the servers I run to /usr/bin/fish and it feels "wrong" to do but I've been really enjoying it
"got a blue check and immediately descended into Poster's Madness" is a special kind of brainrot, can't wait to see how i let this get to my head

I am very, very sorry for your loss.

Interesting talk from @pfrazee.com with @mmccue.bsky.social at SXSW ~1-2 months ago I think.
He talks a lot about scaling down atproto for running and caching the network on your own hardware!
(haha, im thankful that my account is considered important enough to get verified so soon. i have mixed feelings about the feature but want to learn more about implementation before i have real opinions)
