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.

Americans!

If the massive number of internet censorship bills already introduced wasn't enough, Lindsey Graham, along with a handful of co-sponsers (Durbin, Blumenthal, Whitehouse, Klobucher, and Hawley), intends to reintroduce his bill to sunset Section 230 next week.

Section 230 is what allows many websites to exist at all. If this bill passes, many smaller websites will be forced to shut down, and mainstream platforms will either abandon moderation altogether or remove anything even vaguely controversial to avoid lawsuits.

Regular people would be unable to post on sites that take the latter approach (acting as publishers) and would have their voices drowned out by scams and hate speech on sites that take former approach (abandon moderation entirely).

Getting rid of Section 230 would not result in more free speech, it would not "hold Big Tech accountable," or whatever else people like Graham and these co-sponsers say repealing Section 230 would accomplish.

Please call your Senators and Representatives!

답장을 달다 지워져서…채용은 엄청나게 매정해요. 채용을 하는 사람의 입장에서는 하나라도 잠재 위험을 줄이고 싶으니까요.
기사를 자세히 읽어봤는데 저건 방법이 없겠다는 생각도 합니당..
“이 기간동안 경력이 없는데 뭐 했습니까?”
- “아팠습니다” -> 건강이상으로 감점
- “놀았습니다” -> 불성실로 감점
- “개인사라 말하지 않겠습니다” -> 의심스러워 감점
이거든요…

RE: mastodon.social/@blogdiva/1136

just found out the first 5 years after cancer therapy are the most critical for my longevity. been so busy catching up with living after 2 years of battling cancer, i forgot it’s my first year

one year and 4 days ago, i fucked cancer into the sea, thanks to NYS and public health systems. may i have many more to battle the fascistocracy who want us dead by dismantling .

free health care is a human right. abolishing health capitalism is our antifa duty.

RED ALERT

U.S.-based independent contractors, like myself, are about to have our health care costs triple.

Many of us have two weeks to reinvent ourselves and this WILL harm Free and Open Source efforts.

At best, we will volunteer less. At worst, key contributors will cease participation.

I am happy to discuss strategies to preserve what so many have worked to hard to build.

:firefox: New Mozilla's CEO isn't very good a veiled threats:

"He says he could begin to block ad blockers in Firefox and estimates that’d bring in another $150 million, but he doesn’t want to do that. It feels off-mission"

Traitors Canada Français season 1 finale

We watched the season finale last night. It was amazing! They took down the last two traitors one after the other, bam bam. Then, there were four faithful left. They could have just split the remaining pot. But!

anyway we need to figure out something smaller than the web, something that it doesn't take a team of a thousand people to maintain

also, before we do the technical part we need a governance model that won't just wind up at the same place

"The planet you are sitting on right now, as unbelievable as it seems, slowly pieced together by the collisions of endless cosmic scraps over millions of years. Formed by nothing more than the force of gravity, dust became rock, rock became boulder, and boulder became a molten lump so vast it would pull itself into the near-perfect sphere that we know and inhabit today."

미 국무부가 "팩트 체크"해온 사람들에 대해서 비자 발급을 안하겠다고. n.news.naver.com/article/006/... 표현의 자유라는 이름으로 권력이 시민의 (심지어 다른 나라의) 언론 활동을 검열하는 미친 사례. "트럼프는 소셜미디어에서 이뤄지는 '팩트체크'가 표현의 자유를 해치고 보수 진영의 목소리를 검열한다고 주장해왔다."

뭐 사실 이유는 간단하고 단순해서...
"암 투병을 했던 경험이 있다" -> 앞으로 재발 가능성이 있다 -> 업무에 빵꾸가 날 가능성이 있다.
"암 투병을 했던 경험이 있다" -> 유전자에 문제가 있을 가능성이 있다 -> 결혼 후 발병하거나 자손에게 암 발현 유전자를 물려줄 가능성이 있다.

이런 것이죠 뭐... 안타깝지만 뭐 그렇습니다. ​:ablobcat_fukifuki:
이건 차별이라고 하긴 좀 다르지 않을까 싶어요.
