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.
the architecture of the fediverse is optimized to increase engagement by having people's replies to your post just not show up for others, which encourages them to also reply saying exactly the same thing that all the other people have been saying in their replies

The Human Genome Project cost taxpayers $3 Billion.
Within one decade of completion, it had already generated a staggering return on investment of $1 Trillion, with benefits in medicine, agriculture, energy, the environment, & more.

Have you bought/read my second book yet?
If you have, PLEASE review it on Amazon. Currently there are ZERO reviews there, which means the book is effectively invisible.
Would that authors didn't need to rely on such things, but the reality is that we do. Can you lend a hand and fill in the review gaps?
AI is one of the most horrific risks to human civilization in history. NOT because some imaginary super intelligent AI would take over the world, but because Big Tech CEOs are using generative AI to utterly destroy the ability of anyone to trust information. These billionaire CEOs -- who Trump accurately says are "kissing his ass" -- are "poisoning the well" of our information society, while decimating their workforces, screwing society, and smiling all the way to the bank.

@dbDavid Bushell ☕ It’d be great to get a report at https://feedbackassistant.apple.com with the screen recording. It’s ok if you have no idea what’s happening. Just describe what you see as buggy behavior and what you expect instead. Along with facts like it being two sub-domains, etc. Reply with The FB number anytime and I’ll pass along the ping to the right people.
This was a fun panel!
And on-point to be able to re-share Andrés' post across protocols

I’ll try to bring more positive things into my timeline.
While there’s a lot of shit going on, I think it’s important to not lose sight of the small good and great things.
this afternoon my brain is going to repl-driven development, and also smalltalk-style vm development ... is the reason the former isn't super popular and the latter died out because they are basically balls of mutable state? which ends up being hard to scale?
i guess i'm full of 'makes everyone mad' takes. maybe something is in the water. anyway...

My cousin seems to think my fears about Pierre Pollieve taking away women's rights and building concentration camps are overblown. I reminded her that Trump is literally sending US citizens to concentrations camps. No due process, nothing.
Her response?
"They can't just take people off the street. There must be a reason they are taking them."
And this my friends, is how Nazi Germany happened.

I am very close to actually drawing stuff on the screen.
Over 350 academic historians have signed an open letter condemning “attacks on the LGBTQIA+ community” from the Labour government.
Published on Friday (2 May), the open letter expresses significant concerns over the government’s treatment of trans issues following a UK Supreme Court ruling which excludes #trans people from the legal definitions of women and sex in the 2010 Equality Act.

@smallcircles@social.coop personally, I feel that asking people to post or continue a discussion on another platform is a roadblock that shouldn't need to exist.
You can't do it on Discourse, but in NodeBB you can "categorize" a topic, even if it came from the microblog-fedi. Similarly to how you can import a reply tree into another Mastodon instance. That's the difference, that the software should support something like this, although I get that that's not always important to every piece of software. Discourse does technically support two-way federation, replies are sent and received, but it primarily broadcasts content. You can't currently browse fedi from Discourse.
Things get a little more confusing if a topic is already categorized, like a Lemmy/Piefed post in a community, so I expect some of that to change in the coming months.
End of the day it would look something like "cross-posting" as currently exists on the threadiverse.

I had a dream and we were in an elevator and I made a joke about how we should call them "evelators" because "evorlate" means to go up.
