What is Hackers' Pub?

From a recent leak of Spotify data, showing a massive spike of released albums in recent years, most likely due to AI generated music. Yet another reason to stop using it.

たくろう面白かったなー

All dentists recommend flossing, but very few people actually do it — there is now this new thing on the market called a water flosser, which I recently acquired, and it's a great way to floss!

글쎄, 생성형AI의 전력소비 문제는 이미 현재 2년 전 대비 1/100 이하로 줄어들었고 지금도 계속 줄어들고 있음. 전체 소비전력량이 늘어난 건 사용량이 그 이상으로 폭증해서 그런 거고. 또 AI의 수준을 말씀하시는데, 한 측면에서 보면, 이제 기계번역의 질은 전문번역가가 아닌 어지간한 대학원생이나 교수가 지좋대로 한 번역은 뺨 때릴 정도 수준까지 올라옴(농담이 아님). 강AI의 시대는 아직 멀었다지만 어지간한 부분에서의 인간 대체는 이미 충분히 이루어지고 있는 실정.

@juniorstu A lot of years ago I heard about some decentralized Web 3.0 services like Diaspora and even touched them — but there were no interesting things to read and no interesting people to subscribe, so I continued to use Twitter and other centralized platforms.

Then, since 2022, some of these platforms became not so welcoming place to communicate — state-controlled trolls, just a morons and a stream of apocalyptic news leave no place for interesting things. And some of these platforms were simply blocked by state, since they are competed with official propaganda.

At the same time a read a blogpost of @vas3k about Web that couldn't be so simply blocked, not depends on some corporate entity, etc: https://vas3k.blog/blog/unstoppable_web/

Thusly, I started to think about #Mastodon since it was described as a one of the biggest federated thing — it should provide me a way (as I think) stay independent from corporations and companies with their lies about "human approach" and "customer-oriented services" (stares to fucking NameCheap ). If my Mastodon instance admin decide to go crazy or just be forced by state to ban all Russians — well, when I simply migrate to another server, without this madness.

So, I selected the mas.to server using the instructions from aforementioned blogpost. And I used it for some time, learning how Fediverse works, by the way.

First of all, I tried to type some hashtags for Emacs, Thinkpad and FreeBSD and found a lot of interesting people and a lot of interesting discussions — so my timeline became filled with interesting toots very quickly.

Also, I discovered an extremly useful (compared to other social networks, lol) feature to hide all unwanted toots by word filters. So, finally I was able to clear my timelines from any unwanted toots.

After near a year I found, that all cool kids have a small separate servers where they write about cool things. At this time I already found that mastodon server should be selected carefully to have a local timeline readable — on the mas.to, since it was located in the USA, there were a lot of USA news in it's timeline. Which is obviously wasn't interesting for me.

I already know @stefanoStefano Marinelli and know about mastodon.bsd.cafe instance and as for BSD user — my next step was obvious

약간 다른 이야기지만 나는 일자리를 고민하는 청년들에게 ‘쿠팡알바라도 해라’라는 말도 굉장히 무책임하고 나이브한 발언이라고 개인적으로 생각해오고있다...여러가지로... 그 사람이 뭘 전공했고 뭘 하고싶은지 묻고 비슷한 결로 제안하는 게 아니라 대뜸 그냥 돈필요하면 쿠팡해라~ 이게 뭐임...ㅠ

Hello, I'm #newhere so I will try to introduce myself. I'm Armin, 45 years old, and I'm interested in music (Death Metal, Jazz, Techno, Ambient, Dub), old computers, UNIX-like operating systems, and I love beer! I'm currently living in Berlin/Germany. You can find me on IRC (Libera, OFTC, HackInt), and on Codeberg, with the same nickname. I mostly use IRC and Email.

Yesterday's #Indieweb Club #Bangalore meetup had the largest attendance ever! 25 people showed up this time and we worked together on our websites, making new ones and improving old ones, and helping each-other out. We wrote and published 17 blog posts! It was really fun. The community has over 120 members now. Join us at https://blr.indiewebclub.org.

This happened yesterday:

I was handing over a laptop with the BSD Cafe sticker to a student of mine, and the recipient wanted to remove the sticker for reasons including misalignment, not actually running BSD, etc. I tried saying things like "Steffano got the sticker from Italy etc..." nothing was working. Finally, said "it's his birthday today!" and got a "Oooh..." and the sticker was saved!

Day 21 of Advent of Compiler Optimisations!

Summing an array of integers? The compiler vectorises it beautifully, processing 8 at a time with SIMD. Switch to floats and... the compiler refuses to vectorise, doing each add one by one. Same loop, same code structure — why does the compiler treat floats so differently?
