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.
Here's a wish I'd love for ActivityPub.
An interface that would let you have multiple columns and would let you have multiple accounts signed in.
Does something like this exist?
Is 
@dbsystelDB Systel Tech Stories the first official Deutsche Bahn account on the fediverse?
ah hello 
@mxmehlMax Mehl! I see you are listed as "Open Source Strategy & Governance" at DB! https://opensource.deutschebahn.com/opensource
Is there any plan to bring https://twitter.com/db_info and other DB info sources into the fediverse? Would love to follow specific lines like the U8 and get notified here when they are having delays etc!

It's interesting to get a follow from Threads & Ktistec at the same time, two very different "pieces of the fediverse" but both able to follow my single user server here. Seeing this decentralized infrastructure actually do what it's meant to do in real time is pretty amazing. We have 1000s of issues still to figure out, but getting these types of reminders that stuff really is working warms my heart.

"Django is old."
Flip-side:
- stable, i.e. "seasoned"
- lots of documentation, example code, tutorials, forum posts, etc
- LLMs are usually correct because of last 2 points
- fewer security issues because it is battle-hardened
- conferences, event, community, etc is already established
2/n
"Django is heavy."
Flip-side:
- full-featured, i.e. "batteries included"
- all pieces are tailored to work perfectly together
- reduces decision fatigued, i.e. "analysis paralysis"
- quicker to start new projects
- no concern that a particular dependency might get outdated
- most pieces are optional or can be swapped out, e.g. Jinja2, database backends, etc.
- "stand on the shoulders of giants" instead of cobbling together your own framework that you now need to maintain, forever

Let me know how it works for you, and what would be the best next thing to work on.
Font 6x6, that yields a matrix of 42 columns and 32 rows on the Spectrum's 256x192 resolution.
On a tiny LCD screen I have of 240x135, I should get 40 columns by 22 rows. That's compatible enough textwise.
No, your kid isn't addicted to their iPad/Xbox/PlayStation. You're a parent and you're fully in control of how long they spend on these devices. It's you who's addicted to how easily it pacifies them.
I went back and re-read a bunch of critiques of Swift Concurrency recently. There are some good ones out there, and wow you can learn a ton from these. If you know of a good one, send it my way.
I played 4 hours of Borderlands 4 and motion sickness is now kicking in. But I regret nothing, that chaotic Siren with a purple kitty cat is perfection 💜
Apparently, I am the 279ᵗʰ most followed person in the Mastodon. Cat propaganda works!!

transphobia, violence, discrimination
A ray of hope for trans rights.
There are more trans people, including trans kids existing loudly and proudly out of the closet then there have been any time in human history.
There are openly trans teachers and lawyers and engineers and scientists and politicians and diplomats actors, directors, musicians, and gag billionaires.
Within just the last 25 years, trans people have gone from only existing as a joke or sex workers or by hiding themselves in stealth to having multiple states and countries who have literally encoded trans rights into law.
Sure, states didn't have bathroom bans. But they didn't need it. It was just common knowledge that if you got caught in the wrong bathroom as anyone who wasn't cis ...
Informed consent was an impossible pipe dream. There were only maybe a few handful of clinics in the whole world who would dream of helping trans kids with any sort of puberty blockers or HRT, and even then, almost entirely off the books and under the table.
But we're here. We're loud. We're growing. We're only losing ground that was never really ours. It was only ours if we played the cis game of being the proper sort of super binary trans, and putting ourselves in serious danger to do even that.
How far will the reactionaries go? Who the hell knows. But there's more trans allies than ever. Hell, there's major politicians in many many countries all over the world fighting for our rights. That ain't nothin. In the long enough run, we're going to win. Will it be my generation? Zoomers? Gen Alpha? Idk. But we'll win.

I had the chance to cook Palestinian Rice Pot (Qudra) earlier. Palestinian Rice Pot (Qudra) is one of the staple Palestinian dishes. I’m going to share the recipe with you. It is one of my favourite dishes, I always try to cook it on the occasion. And I’m quite the chef, I always enjoy cooking for my family and my friends, and I enjoy food. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

We've barely scratched the surface of direct air carbon capture, but we're relying on it to keep climate change in check. Direct Air Capture (DAC) systems consume a lot of energy and produce toxic by-products. Will DAC scale in the ways we need it to?
