What is Hackers' Pub?

Looks like Trump is trying to find an alternate supplier to Canada's potash. Trump wants to put massive tariffs on potash to spur the US growth in it: problem is there's really no viable source of potash in the US.

So, maybe he tries to get it from a more "friendly" country in Belarus? Key problem for this plan: the main export port for Belarus potash is in Lithuania & the EU has not lifted an embargo on it so none of it will get out that way.

I suppose Belarus could ask Putin to take it and ship it out of a Russian port, but travel/shipping costs would make it more expensive. #cdnpoli #Canada #US #uspol

@peterbrown I disagree, when I said leader, I obviously meant ethical and forward thinking leaders or builders.

They are the same, you have to make a path before you can expect others to walk it.

When it comes to open source projects like these, dictators have no power, anyone can fork and the people can decide which path they take.

And we should embrace this, otherwise we'd be stuck on Internet Explorer v20 unless that kid announced his new hobby project called linux back in the early 90s 😉

glad i watched andor, it was a good show!

Proposal for a new regulation, dear @EUCommissionEuropean Commission. When a digital service like Apple iCloud, Google, Facebook etc decides to block or delete your account, they MUST give you a way for a limited time (I'd propose 6 months) to download all data/files they have stored under that account. You should be able to access it using the last known credentials. AFTER a full download has occurred, the account may be finally deleted. I am sure it needs more refinement, but the principle should be established.

"First of all, it seems like she’s well-educated. It seems like she’s — got a lot of energy. But she, to me, she violates the first rule of politics and that is in politics, you always make it about the voters and never about yourself,”

-Carville

Black people can read between these lines.

If you're still listening to Carville in 2025? Then you cannot be useful to Jasmine Crockett, yourself, or anyone else.

Just pay him a lot of money (again), lose your election (again), and go.

His opinion on 2025 politics is as useful as his opinion on UK drill rap: he doesn't even know what he's listening to!

So you can't really get mad at him for trying to map it to an era and genre that he does understand, and then giving weird takes as a result.

This is an interesting article about how “far-UVC” lamps can just be bought now for about $500, within the range of some groups who want less virus-ey air for their gatherings: https://www.jefftk.com/p/you-can-just-buy-far-uvc

One of the challenges I faced with building the Loops For You algorithm is real time relevance vs performance.

The original PoC algo would cache the most recent videos you watched and pass the ids into the database query, but that is inefficient in many ways, especially at scale.

Then I discovered bloom filters and spent a few hours adding support, updating redis to v8 (with bf support) on my dev env + prod server.

It worked. Despite the phpredis library not supporting bloom filters...

#Python friends, you got any favorite libraries to help introspect large import trees? (use cases: providing feedback during the early import-the-world phase of loading a monorepo; determining how to extract internal dependencies or resolve cycles; etc)

My fallback is to just whip something up with sys.meta_path finders, but smells like the kinda use case where there might be a nice handy lib already on PyPI.

This immigrant woman landed in the US decades ago, has never even set foot in a kitchen or done any cleaning, takes thousands of dollars off the state every year, and spreads dangerous woke antifa propaganda about democracy, inclusivity, and equality.

She should be deported.

If a trillion dollar corporation can effectively up-end a power user's life in an instant, with no recourse, imagine what they can do to an average user. I feel for this person, I really do.

But we as users need to stop implicity trusting these companies with our livelihoods and begin taking back control.
