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.

hint, if you think you might need to take your assistive mobility gear to Congress and are unsure about it (pack weight, bulk, etc.) it's still a good idea to take it, even if you are not a daily user. Canes, crutches, walkers, etc. are available in Hamburg during business hours but it's no fun having to hunt something down last-minute and probably getting whatever is just available in-store as it might not be the best fit. Also test your gear before going (I learned this the hard way).

Also- please make sure your gear is visible as dark-colored materials can virtually disappear in some areas which makes it harder for everyone (another lesson learned the hard way). People will generally give you the extra walking space as long as they can see what you need. Last year I posted about the issue and some people pointed me in the right direction to a UV-Tape display and it worked really well.

View of a carpeted floor in the Hamburg Congress Center demonstrating how a dark walking cane blends in. View of a different room in Hamburg Congress Center showing a walking cane with two contrasting colors of UV-Tape added to the base and top. Two colors are good so that it still shows up in different conditions.

Smoke On Lake Crescent

Smoke drifts across Lake Crescent, softening the Olympic Peninsula landscape into a moody, atmospheric scene. A vivid red branch draws the eye before leading you toward a lone tree emerging through the haze. This striking composition blends serenity, mystery, and natural drama—perfect for collectors who love evocative, story‑rich landscapes.

Smoke On Lake Crescent Imagine standing on a quiet mountain road beside Lake Crescent in Washington’s Olympic Peninsula. The air is thick with drifting wildfire smoke, softening everything into gentle shades of gray. The lake and distant hills fade into the haze, almost like they’re dissolving into the sky. In the foreground, a single branch with bright red leaves reaches into the scene — the only vivid color, almost glowing against the muted background. Your eye follows the road as it curves gently forward, leading to a lone tree standing by itself on the left side, partially swallowed by the smoke. The whole scene feels still, mysterious, and calm, as if the world has paused inside the haze.

Just had someone leave feedback on my F/OSS project saying “maybe that's fine if a product is focused on your Chinese community.”

I'm Korean. Every single piece of documentation is in English. There's nothing in Chinese anywhere in the project.

This kind of microaggression is exhausting. As a non-white maintainer, you deal with these assumptions constantly—people who feel entitled to your labor while casually othering you based on your name.

It chips away at your motivation. It makes you wonder why you bother.

【健之堂虎乳芝強肺免疫配方特約】一名英國乘客近日乘搭瑞安航空（Ryanair）期間，因機上餐點質素與宣傳圖片嚴重不符而大感不滿，形容該餐點是自己「吃過最差的飛機餐」，事後向航空公司申請退款卻被拒，引起關注。

事發於本月10日，60歲的 Mike Crosby 乘搭由都柏林飛往倫敦的航班，期間以12.5歐元（約114港元）購買一份機上套餐，包括一杯咖啡、一條朱古力及一個芝士火腿意大利三文治（Panini）。惟食物送上後，其外觀及份量與機上雜誌宣傳圖片落差甚大，令他感到震驚。

Crosby指出，宣傳圖片中的三文治外皮金黃、餡料豐富，但實際到手的產品僅夾着兩片極薄的火腿，並塗上一層難以辨認的芝士狀醬料，而且只覆蓋麵包的一小部分。他形容該三文治「完全不像圖片」，直言：「那應該是芝士火腿，但看起來不像任何我認得的火腿，芝士也不像芝士，更像是一種醬。」他只吃了兩口便將整個三文治丟棄。

I don’t want to lose another person. Not after the HIV epidemic, not after witnessing suicides. Not again.

Christmas hits really hard for a lot of people, especially queer, trans, neurodivergent folks, people with disabilities, or anyone who’s alone. And in places where the cultural or political climate is hostile, it gets even heavier. The exact reasons don’t matter.
What matters is that you’re here.

I want to help you stay.

제 지인 분이 GitHub 에서 인종차별적 코멘트를 받으셨습니다. GitHub 계정이 있으시면 신고 부탁드립니다. 영어가 어려우시더라도 LLM으로 신고글 써달라고 하면 잘 써줍니다. 신고는 단 시간 내에 많이 찍혀야 실제 보고로 올라가기 때문에 가능하신 분들은 꼭 신고 부탁드립니다.

Yesterday, I rebooted from Linux to small Windows partition I keep on my notebook specially for rare occasion I try to run some Windows game. Sometimes I meet for LAN party of Age of Empires with a friend. Otherwise, I am not forced to interact with Windows very often, only sometimes, on a managed corporate desktop. Being internet service provider, I used to have to setup Windows networking for users, but these days, I usually setup only Wi-Fi routers and don't touch PCs.

There was not enough disk space on my historical partition, because for some reason, it reports 37 GB used even if entire Windows directory reports cca 20 GB and there is absolutely nothing installed (except Firefox and some weird local XML form filler required by early "digital government" attempt of Czech telco office).

I was amused how weird "Windows administration" feels this day. It is much worse, than even the early days of Linux. Not so much clicking in old style, but you paste really weird command lines into your admin PowerShell terminal, and you receive arcane numerical errors without explanation, so you must ask AI chatbot what it means!

We did not figure out, how to free the hidden 17 GB of my NFTS partition (14 GB were required), we released only about 1 GB and figured out, that up to 4 GB are used by some weird "hibernation file" (after installing Total commander). As I expected, rebooting everything always helped, but not enough,

But most funny fact, after not using Windows on daily basis for at least 20 years and not using it at all for 10 years is, that being administrator of supposedly "user friendly" desktop operating system is now more complicated, than being administrator of supposedly complex server operating system. I have more or less the same feedback from my dad, who for some reason insists on using Windows, even if the only app he really uses is the web browser.

It is not even pretending to be user friendly any more. People are stuck with complexity out of control.
