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.

My student did a Science!

One week from now, Denisa Arsene will present the her BSc thesis research at the 14th International Conference on Complex Networks and their Applications, held in Binghamton, New York, USA!

More details and preprint: latower.github.io/posts/2025/1

I'm super proud of her, and I'm super happy that I got to do this project with her and two of my former colleagues from Leiden University: Rachel de Jong and Frank Takes!

Poster presenting the highlights of the research in the corresponding paper. Eyecatcher is a big vertical orange banner with the text: 'How to share research-relevant social netowrk data, while preserving privacy? SANA Simulated Annealing for Network Anonymization. Minimal changes. Maximal privacy. Up to 18 times more anonymized nodes. Same speed. Same data utility. It features diagrams that illustrate a type of attack model that is based on characteristics of the direct neighbourhood of nodes. It also has an example plot of how a simulated annealing approach converges to a particular level of anonymity. It then has a bunch of plots that give more details on running time, level of anonymization, and how SANA and the other algorithms perform in terms of data utility. The takeaways are that SANA provides fast and better anonymization and that it scales better with input size than the other algorithms studied here. Next challenges are to tackle multi-objective anonymity and utiliyt, and dynamic (real-time) anonymization.

Unix - BSD developers : this code should run and be maintained as long as computers exist.

Linux - GNU dev : this code should run and be maintained as long as someone is willing to do the work

Consultant: this code should run until the end of my contract.

Enterprise grade B2B software : this code should run till the end of the demonstration to that big customer.

Vibe coding : You are perfectly right. The code doesn’t run. Try this one. You are right, it deleted your hard disk, I’m sorry.

I'm a bit late to the party and somehow missed this, but here's an open letter to Dutch Universities (both academic and of applied sciences) and their executive boards, to ask that they stop the uncritical adoption of AI technologies in higher education.

其實我不太確定怎麼稱呼自己(物理上的)原生的家
我一直覺得自己只是搬出去而已,而不是另外成家
我也沒有像大部分站友那樣,租住的家橫跨幾個縣市
或者在別的國家住下來

甚至現在住的地方和原來的家距離10公里都不到
總覺得稱呼老家怪怪的…
但它應該算是老家沒錯吧

Forbes: Google Starts Sharing All Your Text Messages With Your Employer

As reported by Android Authority, “Google is rolling out Android RCS Archival on Pixel (and other Android) phones, allowing employers to intercept and archive RCS chats on work-managed devices. In simpler terms, your employer will now be able to read your RCS chats in Google Messages despite end-to-end encryption.”

Today’s Classical Chinese translation: The Oil-Hawking Geezer.

Sir Chen Kangsu was a great shot — the best archer in the world, in fact. He was busy practicing in his own yard when some oil-hawking geezer set down his wares to take a good long stare. When he saw that eight or nine of every ten arrows struck the bullseye, the old geezer nodded slightly.

“Oh,” called Kangsu, “are you also a big archery stan? Hot stuff, don’t you think?”

“Meh,” said the hawker, “it’s just a matter of practice.”

Kangsu was insulted. “And just who are you to brush me off like that, huh, hotshot?”

“Here, lemme show you my oil.” The old man put a drinking gourd on the ground, and laid one of those coins with a threading hole in the middle over the mouth. He slowly poured a ladle of oil straight through the threading-hole without leaving the slightest trace of oil on the coin. “See? Just a matter of practice, that’s all.”

Kangsu really had to let that one slide.

Localization note: the original story takes it for granted that of course “money” has a small hole in the middle; I was very confused trying to grasp what was going on until I figured out they meant this particular type of coin.

뒤에서 지켜보는 묘, 묘르신. 삼범의 냥린 동송바. 둘 다 자기 밥 자리에서 먹고, 사람이 나중에 올지 모를 고양이들을 위해 놓는 닭가슴살을 눈치채고 동송바가 먼저 와서 먹고 있음. 묘는 뒤에서 지켜보다 안되겠다 싶었는지 앞으로 오고, 어린 동송바는 묘기척을 느끼고 자리를 피함.
