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.

It's great folks are talking about internet resiliency, but resist the temptation to go build the cool fun mesh network first and then the services that run on it second. You need the services first. You're far more likely to see your country or area getting islanded than you are to see your ISP suddenly switched off, and you're better placed to rebuild IP networks from a single access point where you can access a wiki and send local email than you are building services on your empty mesh

I had the beginning of an idea for a talk last night. I've not gotten much beyond the title (in the image) and the general concept of "companies are using your code whether you want them to or not. here's how to navigate the reality of being in MegaCorp's supply chain" not to make developers embrace the idea, but to help ease the pains that come with it. Anyway, if this sounds mildly interesting to you, let me know.

Two panel meme. In the top panel, a dimly-lit pirate looks into the camera saying "you'd better start believing in supply chains". In the bottom panel, the pirate is a decaying corpse saying "you're in one."

(This is a scene from "The Pirates of the Caribbean")

Me: updates web site to show off books in a more modern and legible way. Social media's been around fifteen years or so, I guess I better interoperate it

then discovers @b0rkJulia Evans's site has *animated* covers on her books. :flan_piteous:

Oh, well... I only have, what? another ten years or so of this career, if I'm lucky? it'll be fine.

Hey, look at that, a new standardised endpoint dropping in Mastodon 4.4 for OAuth Userinfo: docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/

Use it in combination with the profile scope added in Mastodon 4.3 to get back basic profile information when doing a "sign in with Mastodon" functionality.

It's discoverable via the OAuth Server Metadata endpoint (literally the section below the linked on above)

자신의 이름과 전화번호, 배달 주소가 적혀 있었는데, 9자리 숫자로 이뤄진 주문번호를 임의로 바꿔 입력했더니 다른 사람의 주문 정보가 고스란히 나왔습니다.

취재진이 제보자와 함께 직접 확인해 본 결과, 주문자가 결제한 카드번호와 유효 기간, 심지어 공동 현관 비밀번호까지 마음만 먹으면 알 수 있는 상태였습니다.

...이거 예전에 KT 놈들 짓이랑 비슷하네 ㅋ

지금 비공개 런칭도 3일밖에 안 됐는데 이런 불안정한 물건이 돌아다닌다는 게 이해가 안 된다. 그리고 지금 약 10대 정도가 돌다니는 건데 이렇게 오류가 많은 거면 좀 심각한 것 같은데 일론이 밀어붙였겠지…

구글 제미나이 너무 잘 쓰고 있어서 유료 플랜을 쓸 생각까지 든다.

2TB 스토리지까지 주니까 비싼 가격은 아닌데... 흠.

웹 검색 -> 바로 정리, 기능이 진짜 킬러 앱임. 조사-학습 시간이 로그 스케일로 줄어듬.

Hey and , if you've been eyeing buying plugins from Soundtoys, you can get them on June 25 or 26 and all your money will go to Lambda Legal, a "leading nonprofit defending the civil rights of LGBTQIA+ people and everyone living with HIV".

one of my goals with "The Secret Rules of the Terminal" is to show you that you have a lot of choices about how your shell behaves, that a well-configured shell can make your life in the terminal a LOT easier, and that (if you're using bash or zsh) there's a strong chance that some of the defaults are not serving you well social.jvns.ca/@b0rk/114739372
