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.

ICYMI, a while back I did release my app, Browser Actions.

BA lets you use to automate , , , , , and – with actions for navigating, working with forms, clicking page elements, handling windows & tabs, getting data out, and more!

actions.work/browser-actions?r
14d trial, perpetual licenses, no subs.

(I'd really appreciate some boosts ♻️ – it's hard to get new apps noticed, and I'm struggling quite a bit 😬)

In all my years of doing physics, I never figured out the intuitive meaning of the lagrangian (or the action). Why should the difference between kinetic and potential energy play such a prominent role? What separates kinetic from potential energy?

I was always afraid to ask this question, not to sound stupid. 😕

As the warmer months of the year are upon us, the race begins between one's acclimatization to heat, and onset of higher and higher temperatures.

Today's was a draw, I feel, as my tempo intervals were progressively more and more difficult in the direct hot sunlight. But I made it back in one piece! :)

So you want to block threads.com and threads.net, but Mastodon UI is making it difficult?

Tip! Use Mastodon's Import function:

1. Create a file, any filename will do as long as it ends with `.csv`. For example: `blocked_domains.csv`.

2. Put these two lines in the file (without the backticks):

```
threads.com
threads.net
```

3. Save the file.

4. Go to the Mastodon import settings (`/settings/imports`).

5. In the form on this page, select import type "Domain blocking list".

6. In the form, select your newly created CSV file as the Data file.

7. In the form, select "Merge " instead of "Overwrite" (this should be the default value) as the import strategy.

8. Upload your file.

9. Profit!

한편, 이제는 두꺼운 도우가 사라지고 있음에 나는 큰 슬픔을 느낀다. 문득, 오래전 피자헛 콜센터에서 연수를 받던때가 떠오른다. 피자 도우를 설명할 때 씬 피자는 과자같은 바삭함과 간식에 비유를, 두꺼운 도우는 도톰한 식감과 밥과같은 든든함으로 설명하라 했다. 밥. 든든함. 우리는 어떤 민족인가? 우리가 어떤 민족인가? 밥이 아니면, 든든함이 아니면 살수없는 민족 아닌가? 그런 민족에게 밥과 같은 피자를 뺏어간 시대의 흐름에 슬픔과 비참함을 넘어 분노를 느낀다. 이 시대는 분명 댓가를 치르게 될것이다. 분명 치르게 될것이다.

"Currently, in our bank account, we have £2100 (around $2800). It's not even enough to pay the rent for one month," explains Joseph Redon, head of the Japanese Game Preservation Society. He's describing the end of the non-profit organisation he set up in 2011 with the aim of properly safeguarding Japanese gaming history before it is lost forever.

"I'm paying 25% of the rent," reveals Redon. "Meaning we are already virtually out of business. We have monthly supporters but are losing between £260 and £420 every month. So when you do the maths, we are completely out of cash in September. And a non-profit organization cannot be out of cash. We're then out of business. What we really need is to bring in at least £750 every month. It's not that much if it's 400 people giving £2 a month. Some people might give more, so we need 300 people to become supporters so that we can stay afloat. Otherwise, we shut the laboratory and won't have a place to do preservation or archiving."

嗨這裡是一彗,我不打算特別介紹我是誰,我就只是我,人本就有很多個面向,而這些會在文字裡浮現出來,欲知詳情,那就讓我們、繼續、看下去。

也許少了各種標籤和分類,比較不容易被注意到,但那也沒關係。對我來說寫文章是對自己的療癒,無形間帶給他人溫暖和力量,其實是附帶的作用,無論有沒有達成這件事、是否足夠全面的照顧到不同人的需要,對我而言並不是最重要的。

但還是很開心,之前經營IG和Threads的時候,曾經有很多網友跟我分享,讀了文章之後感覺原來自己並不孤單、好好的被接住了,我認為這是一種善的循環,我寫的東西能幫助到他人,也在他人的回饋中得到肯定。

如果有人能理解我、接收到這些善意,那麼請記得不需要感謝和回報,把這份溫度傳下去就好。

世界或許很殘酷,但我們可以對彼此溫柔一點。

You know what I wish the more human-centered tech conferences would do right now?

Open up special tickets and speaking slots for scientists whose work is getting axed and whose fields are being obliterated right now. I bet you anything this would bring some radical insight to your audiences and incredible energy to your stages.

I can advertise this for you through my social science networks. I am seeing scores of brilliant young social scientists with years of relevant work grieve right now

(Note on today's language poll set: I got good help from several people from Ishan and several others on these. On Hindi I wound up getting semi-contradictory advice from different people on politeness levels so I wound up just going with the original super-polite version.

I'd have liked to have done Swahili, Hausa, or Igbo at some point but I can't find anyone to proofread the questions, strongly implying no one on this TL will actually vote yes on those, so I think this is the final poll set)

Shoutout to the marketing ‘expert’ who mailed a large, battery-powered, LCD-equipped video greeting card to our CEO to demonstrate their innovative approach to ignoring the crisis. Bold strategy.

We’ll be sure to reach out if we need help shipping steaks and leather handbags to PETA.

散步回來有點餓
想起家裡的雞蛋都沒有了,大半夜的也不想解凍雞肉,又不想奢侈的幹掉Donki買回來、平日做便當用的即食魚

突然想起還有蟹棒
問題迎刅而解

Threads updated their terms of service. Lots of CYA when interacting with “the Protocol” which at this point in time, is ActivityPub. But it’s never named, and it’s noted that the protocol could change at anytime.

Important terms to review: protocol and third party *. Also that little sneaky point about needing to adhere to both Threads and Instagram’s ToS.
