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.

Just a reminder to the people who have been on Mastodon or the Fediverse awhile: remember to follow some new people every once in a while, especially someone with few followers who would just like to connect and be heard by someone. It’s easy to get caught in our routines, but there are new, kind, interesting people joining everyday.

“Developers thought they were 20% faster with Al tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to Al than when they didn’t.”

This is just the tip of the iceberg. I am convinced that we can make a tool that makes developers feel like they're going 50% faster while actually going 50% slower. The sky's the limit.

This lady who has an interest in and local clay found my blog posts and got in touch with me. She’s a 3rd generation Floridian and grew up believing that there’s no here, which is a very common misconception.

She came by to visit yesterday and brought a couple of clay samples she’d found. I offered to test fire them for her because she doesn’t have a kiln yet. I just placed them in the test kiln and I’m excited to see what happens. Will post results tomorrow!

Two small circles of clay lying side by side on a broken piece of kiln shelf. The photo is shot from above with the clay samples and kiln shelf shard resting on a gray cement floor. The clay circle on the left is a tan color and the one on the right is more gray. They are marked with the codes R1 and R2 respectively so that we know which is which after they’ve been fired. They are being fired on a piece of kiln shelf just in case they melt so that they will not ruin the kiln interior.

川普改變對俄對烏政策,宣佈加碼向烏克蘭 供應武器,預計首批愛國者系統和飛彈數天內送到烏克蘭

他還要求俄羅斯50天內(即9月3日)結束戰爭,否則實施100%關稅——值得注意的是,他是說「二級關稅」,亦即這個懲罰是適用於中國、印度等仍在購買俄羅斯石油的國家

Evening Reflection: In just a few days, it will be BSD Cafe's second birthday. Two years ago, I never anticipated what would follow. What was once a dream - this kind of community - has transformed into a reality. I set the table, but the Cafe isn't just me; it's all of you.
It's the Fediverse, it's Matrix, it's a group of people who want to communicate, who want positivity, who want to grow, who have a passion and an interest. This morning, I announced the Journal, and the enthusiasm shown was comparable. And that, for me, was a gift.

Even though it's not yet Tuesday here, it already is in many places. While I might sound repetitive, I feel compelled to dedicate this to you all: friends of BSD Cafe (both in and outside the cafe), of the Fediverse, of Matrix, of every communication channel.
Because FREE communication channels are tools, and they are merely extensions of people.

Wonderful people, who make the world a little less bleak.

Thank you.

Are you using AI to summary emails with Google gmail and workspace?
Google Gemini Bug Turns Gmail Summaries into Phishing Attack: No links or attachments are required; the attack relies on crafted HTML / CSS inside the email body. Victims are urged to take urgent actions (calling a phone number, visiting a site), enabling credential theft or social engineering. That is all.

"AI is a tool (sorry!) that people who are bad at their jobs will use badly and that people who are good at their jobs will maybe, possibly find some uses for. People who are terrible at their jobs (many executives), will tell their employees that they “need” to use AI, that their jobs depend on it, that they must become more productive, and that becoming an AI-first company is the strategy that will save them from the old failed strategy, which itself was the new strategy after other failed business models."
