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.

OK, last-minute announcement!

The Mini-hackathon is tomorrow!

3 Aug 2025 11am to 3pm

Waves Coffee 900 Howe St #100 (the one right by UBC Robson)

Plan to build something doable in a few hours - a document, a feature, a big fix or a POC!

Reply to RSVP or just come by. It'll be nice to hack together!

From what I’ve seen of (which, believe it or not, is a convention for the FEDIVERSE), there seems to be a whole lot of “check out this non-Fediverse thing that is in fact built on Bluesky” and “here are some problems with the Fediverse that no one actually faces, how do we fix them, let’s make it centralized” and not much actual talk about ongoing Fedi projects.

C2S APIのサポートの充実もそうだけど、データの可搬性についても積極的に見習うべきだよなあ。

フルスタックのサーバをセルフホストして完全に自己統治できるのはActivityPubの(というより、素朴な"message-passing"型のアーキテクチャの)強みだと思うけど、一方で現実のFediverseにおいては(私も含め)ほとんどのユーザが他人のサーバを間借りしているわけで、それなら自分のデータだけでも確保できる選択肢もあった方が大多数のパンピーにとっては有益なのではなかろうかと

Quite surprised (In a positive way?) that the default when you are adding a new domain to cloudflare is to block/drop AI scrapers, and that the options take up as much room as the most foundational questions "where are the DNS records going to come from?"

Sort of a indicator on the side of the AI companies that all of this is unsustainable if the publishers of actual content hate/discriminate against them this much
