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.

So I'm pretty embarrassed not to have realised until now that my latest slides, despite being based on the web, were still inaccessible. And what am I bloody giving talks about? ACCESSIBILITY 🤦

ANYWAY. Please find my latest Whimsica11y slides here, two very similar-but-different versions from State of the Browser and WeAreDevelopers Accessibility & AI Day - along with links to accessible versions:

slides.sarajoy.dev

...it's never too late to fix mistakes.
Thank you!

I just filled out the Python Packaging Ecosystem Survey and you should too!

anaconda.surveymonkey.com/r/py

If you've ever typed "pip install X" or clicked the install button on an IDE, you've interfaced with the Python packaging ecosystem.

Please don't worry that you don't know enough about packaging! If only super experienced people fill the survey out, then the changes that get made won't serve less experienced folks.

Cheers to Anaconda and the 30 other groups that put this survey together :)

By request, I've tried to do a guide for organisations that are interested in joining Mastodon and the Fediverse:

➡️ fedi.tips/tips-for-organisatio

Any kind of feedback would be appreciated, especially if you are involved with an organisation of any kind.

제가 읽은 청소년소설 중에 기억나는 걸로는 m.yes24.com/goods/detail... 이게 있어요 처음 읽었을 때는 나름 감명깊게 읽었다고 생각했는데 작년에 다시 읽으니까 독해력이 떨어진 건지 그냥 표지만 보고 반했었던 건지 그때만큼 뭔가 느껴지지는 않아서 아쉬웠던...

안녕, 바람 - 예스24

Couldn’t help myself and converted another VM to 😅

This one used to be an OpenMediaVault samba appliance that later grew in scope and now runs a systemd service or two.

Converted it to NixOS before things escalate. The initial setup and samba config was done in about 30 minutes. The services took longer.

This was a good move as it made setting up vsftpd (for receiving scans over LAN from a network scanner) for testing purposes quite easy :)

Also sops-nix is cool (will blog about it!)

The newly installed system passed the “will it work in production?” test with new files successfully being saved by users (same IP address, same samba passwords) 🥳

Fun to see the CPU being, like, totally idle — I guess 20 MB files mean nothing to a modern computer anymore :)

This is on the Ryzen Mini PC, BTW: michael.stapelberg.ch/posts/20

(The software in the screenshot is called btop, before you ask.)

I only had a few fleeting moments to catch the today. But wow was I so glad to have been there!

@_elenaElena Rossini ⁂ premiered a new video that introduces the fediverse to mainstream social users, and it was very well produced. I got a little emotional about it! I believe it will be released on PeerTube within the week.

Something to look forward to, and share generously. You'll want to shake the cobwebs off your old Twitter and Facebook accounts and post it! :)

premiere for my Fediverse promo film = done.

How did it go? So well that I've been fighting back tears for the past half hour.

Getting such warm, positive comments from builders and champions of the fediverse is EVERYTHING ❤️ Thank you @j12tJohannes Ernst for this opportunity.

I'm almost tempted to "deploy on a Friday" and share the link to the video now 😅 But nah, I know better. Tuesday it is! (Monday is a public holiday here)

Have a lovely weekend everyone!

Just a reminder that I have a collection of articles, podcasts, and academic papers on AI. It focuses on controversies, issues, legal questions, and bad behavior by AI companies.

The collection is now up to 1,992 items and started in 2022. Find it here:

zotero.org/bjrussell/collectio

It is tagged as I'm a librarian, and I'm compelled to do so. Feel free to send me articles you find as well!
