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.
Happy “Reset all your preferences to their #AI loving defaults” Day to all those who celebrate
"Do they expect students not to be anarchists?" he said. "What else can the young be? When you are on the bottom, you must organize from the bottom up!"

Something I wonder about. When it comes to LLMs, it’s often said that the shareholders or “Mr. Market” are demanding its use. What’s the *structure* of that demand? How is it made known to CEOs? It’s sure not coming from me and my Vanguard Total Stock Market index fund. Is it rather an individualistic thing with, say, hedge fund managers?
If so: OK, sure. CEOs are responding rationally to investor pressure. But why is that particular set of investors making that particular irrational demand?

The Mother of All Demos was "a landmark computer demonstration of [...] many of the fundamental elements of modern personal computing: windows, hypertext, graphics, efficient navigation and command input, video conferencing, the computer mouse, word processing, dynamic file linking, revision control, and a collaborative real-time editor."

@stefanStefan Bohacek It's hard to underscore how monumental The Demo was in 1968. I was lucky to be there for the 40th and work on a web site for the 50th, but mostly to meet Doug in 2006.
Hackers Pub 송년회 라이트닝토크에서 발표 안하려고 했는데? 뭔가 소소하게 공유할꺼리가 생겼다. 그리고.......... Hackers Pub에서 LLM 활용하는 방법 굉장히 과한 밀도로 공유하게 될 것 같다.... 당장 내가 일하는 회사도 LLM을 엄청 적극적으로 활용하고 있기도 하고, 그걸로 사업하는 회사여서 더욱 가속도가 붙는 것도 있는 듯.

I started donating when I could to INARA during the Syrian Civil War. They've expanded their operations to include #Gaza
I can't even buy one family one tent, but I can contribute just a bit to medical care. It's an imperfect solution and it doesn't make me feel better, but it's what I can do.

Anti-goals for software engineering:
- using AI for the sake of it
- feeling clever while writing it
- writing it as short as possible; 1 liners vs 10 liners
- covering every potential use case
- adding abstractions that you might need
- optimizing the performance of every function
That's definitely not a complete list. What would you add to it?
대전시가 고향사랑기부로 모은 기부금을 엑스포 공원 ‘과학자 시계탑’을 설치하는 데 쓰기로 해서 논란입니다. 사회적 취약계층 지원과 주민복리 증진 등에만 사용하도록 한 취지에 어긋난데다, 자의적으로 심의를 간소화해 절차에도 문제가 있다는 지적이 나옵니다.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/115689198997943088
I’m proud to share my first blog as 
@Mastodon’s Community Director. Well the first one posted under my name at least 😉
Digital social networking is one of the most important threads in the fabric of our societies. Right now, we’re letting that thread be controlled by social media platforms that let advertisements for scams stay up because they’re profitable, and that use their algorithms to run human research experiments on us without our consent. That’s not the society I want.
“By making the news and truth contingent on advertising budgets we’ve created an environment where any narrative can win, as long as the storyteller is willing to pay. If we allow these conditions to continue, we will leave behind the voices that truly matter; the people and their public institutions. It is critical that those voices not be silenced forever. The promise of the #fediverse is the promise of a better way forward: free from ads and manipulative algorithms, a place built by and for people like you, where #SocialSovereignty is a right and not a privilege.”
In this thread, we asked folks to crowdsource a list of resources so you can find your local representative. Find them, contact them, and tell them this: if you care about a free and just future, and if you care about #DigitalSovereignty, you must leave X and join the fediverse.

Today, DWI publishes a powerful essay by Michael Geoffrey Asia, who works impersonating an AI sex companion: https://data-workers.org/michael/
This piece offers a rare glimpse into the psychological and economic realities behind one of the fastest-growing sectors: AI-assisted intimacy.

In 15 years, when half of the worlds critical software is LLM-infested, indecipherable vibe-coded spaghetti, and there aren’t enough traditionally-trained software engineers to hire because the entry-level pipeline was strangled in 2025, and people my generation have all retired, well…
Well just remember I said this would happen.

Open Source Security in spite of AI
존나 상식적인 이야기를 듣는데 하도 4년간 지록위마를 쳐듣고 살다 보니까 갑자기 뭐가 존나 좋아진거 같은 착각이 듬. 실제로 변한건 아직 아무것도 없는데. 그냥 눈과 뇌를 열심히 걷어차던 통증만 사라졌을 뿐이지...
