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.

@nasserRamsey Nasser i think some peoples' (most of whom should know better) contention is that there is a Smart (a nebulous, elitist and even openly eugenicist concept) way to use this crap and so all the important heavy lifting will be done by Smart people who can prompt real good and sift through the chaos and keep the world running, despite the ever increasing tide of shit these systems are producing. (if it's not clear, i disagree that that will ever be possible)

@nasserRamsey Nasser but i've seen people who are extremely experienced and knowledgeable get headshotted by the combination of the anthropomorphized interface, the frequency with which the slot machine spits out workable results, and their narrow focus ("it seems to 'know' my domain of expertise, and my domain is one of the hardest/coolest/smartest so it must 'know' every other domain too!") and lack of political consciousness / ability to anticipate social consequences.

RT 【大埔 釀83死|阻燃棚網 VS 不阻燃棚網 相差277萬】

記者委託棚架公司取得業內棚網報價單,不阻燃棚網「1.8米×1.8米柵網(綠網)」一包5張,售價300元;具阻燃性的棚網一包5張,售價550元。

以一個單位的面積計算,結果發現(阻燃與不阻燃)兩者相差約$1,400 。宏福苑合共8座大廈,每座31層,共計1,984個住宅單位,總差額達至 $2,777,600,佔3.3億的維修工程總金額約0.84%。

勞工處指出,至2025年11月期間,對宏福苑工程共進行了16次巡查,檢查內容包括查看宏福苑棚架上鋪設的「棚網」產品質量證書是否符合本處要求,並按風險為本的原則,多次以書面警告方式提醒承建商須採取適當的防火措施。而勞工處最近一次巡查於11月20日進行,並於巡查後再次書面提醒承建商採取適當防火措施的必要性。

負責監察工程的顧問「鴻毅建築師有限公司」(wpa),聲明指,「本所將全力配合當局提供必要之建築圖則、資料及專業意見等以協助全面調查及評估……現階段暫不作進一步評論或披露細節,以避免影響調查程序之公正性及完整性。」

This is an old blog post of mine, but I still really appreciate this subtle feature of Rust: one of the ways it supports robust thread-safe concurrent code is by _not making everything thread-safe._ It's odd that this property is so rare in languages. Just like how clear boundaries are critical in relationships, being able to designate which parts of your program _can't_ be shared across threads is critical for ensuring that the shared parts are correct.

SIBLING vs. SIBLING
2:45 p.m. / Upstairs
This dispute will start about the rightful owner of the shirt currently on your body and that thing you said two months ago at Mimi’s memorial service. It will end with psychological warfare. https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/your-familys-thanksgiving-fight-schedule

RE: hachyderm.io/@thisismissem/115

One idea that I may adopt from Bluesky's moderation infrastructure is the ability to set a validity date, so like "this recommendation is valid until this date", and then a retraction is automatically issued (though the server doesn't currently include any scheduling capabilities)

But I like that idea for temporary actions.

In your tech company with multiple Python projects and microservices, is there a dedicated team in charge of keeping your Python updated and upgraded across all the different repositories? Is it a concerted effort? Is it just done individually by the engineers who own the repo? Or do you contract it to a consulting company? 🤔

大埔宏福苑周三(26日)發生五級火災,至今(28日)火勢仍未完全撲熄。這場近年最嚴重的城市大火造成最少83人死亡,包括一名殉職消防員;另有逾70人受傷,大批居民無家可歸。事件震動全港,亦引起國際關注。

教宗良十四世就今次嚴重火災向香港教區主教周守仁樞機發出唁電。教宗得悉大埔火災吞噬多幢住宅後深感悲痛,對香港市民所面對的苦難表示關切。

唁電提到,教宗在精神上與所有受影響市民同在,尤其是受傷者及正承受喪親之痛的家屬。他將亡者的靈魂託付於全能天主的慈愛,祈求天主賜予力量、慰藉與平安,伴隨有需要的家庭渡過艱難時刻。

教宗同時為仍在前線搜救及提供醫療援助的救難人員祈禱,感謝他們在極端危險環境下堅持工作,期望他們在任務中獲得力量與保守。

少し独り言

特徴がある=ダメなこと って認識が強くて
自然に出てしまう特徴をなくそうとしてしまったけど

特徴があるからダメと言いやすいだけで
特徴は扱い次第で良くなる ということ。


自分の自然に出てしまう特徴を認識して
それを抑えるのではなく制御するのが大事だね
