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.

«The Wikimedia Foundation, the nonprofit organization which hosts and develops Wikipedia, has paused an experiment that showed users AI-generated summaries at the top of articles after an overwhelmingly negative reaction from the Wikipedia editors community.»

It's nice to see places where community can help course correct!

Very important news from : “Our goal for this year is to finalize the full ActivityPub experience — so that WordPress can be used as a first-class citizen of the Fediverse. This means enabling not only publishing to the network, but also following, reading, interacting, and moderating — all in a seamless way that feels natural for WordPress users.” activitypub.blog/2025/06/11/ou

I'm frequently asked "how much does @compiler_explorer cost to run". I've done some digging and posted xania.org/202506/compiler-expl which is a high-level breakdown of the costs (and revenue); and links to a more in depth report if you want all the gory details.

All of this is bubbling up into what will probably be a conference talk or blog post that is something along the lines of "For ten years I made the most obviously stupid language machines in the world and people consistently thought they were smarter than they really were, here's what I think that means for AI"

*tap tap* prova prova! ripresa delle trasmissioni, prova!

In questo periodo di assenza abbiamo fatto, bè, troppe cose. Ma soprattutto, possiamo finalmente parlare di quello che stava bollendo in pentola in questo periodo!

Oggi vi presentiamo le personagge che faranno parte del progetto Loop 😁
Sei persone, sei spaccati del mondo che ci circonda con tutta la sua complessità.
E poi c'è il vino, e Bologna ❤️

Paws up 🐾

E tu come ti senti?

Chess is heavily enough structured, it's extremely enable to algorithmic analysis. Even so, it took a long time before algorithms could rival human players. There's no way an unstructured learner could be good at chess.

This should be the nail in the coffin for the whole LLMs-are-universal-learners fallacy, but I know it won't be.
