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.

Playground setup with Raspberry Pi 5 and Mikrotik hEX router.

The Pi, with a M.2 HAT+ Compact, is running Raspberry Pi OS Desktop.

The hEX is running RouterOS 7.20.6, without a default configuration. Right now it's acting more like a switch.

I'm using Raspberry Pi Connect to access the Pi from outside my home network, and mostly ssh and WinBox to access the devices when inside, but Connect also works here.

Today's working environment has me at an actual desk for once, which is pretty nice. It's much more comfortable than my usual setup, so I've been able to work productively most of the day. (Not pictured: the erogdox & atreus keyboards I was using earlier in the day).

我的天啊啊啊我樓下鄰居又在打罵家人(應該是小孩),但她的兩個孩子都上中學了,一週裡最少還是要被媽媽打罵三次,每次最少半小時起,平均都一個小時以上。我真的很擔心他們的心理健康。

但我是不敢去勸架的……這位彪悍的母親就是每天捅我地板(他們的天花板),還曾強行闖入我家的那位。

話說前幾天我家樓下另一家人的門好像被他們的某個親戚(丈母娘還是什麽的)撞了半天,把上下樓都驚動了,差點被鄰居報警。

Hi everybody,

Making my first post.

I am new to the BSD.cafe and navigating my way around the Wiki. Glad to be a part of the community and getting familiar with Mastodon.

Please could someone log into their Wiki account and let me know if this link allows access to registered users: wiki.bsd.cafe/user:marios:test

Otherwise, let me know if I am fiddling with pages that shouldn't be added.

Take care!

Hi ! I'm working on Hackers' Pub, a small -powered social platform for developers and tech folks.

We're currently drafting a content (/) system and would really appreciate any feedback from those who have experience with federated moderation—we're still learning.

Some ideas we're exploring:

  • Protecting reporter anonymity while giving reported users enough context to understand and improve
  • Graduated responses (warning → content removal → suspension) rather than jumping to bans
  • Using LLM to help match reports to code of conduct provisions
  • Supporting ActivityPub Flag activity for cross-instance reports

Our guiding principle is that moderation should be about growth, not punishment. Expulsion is the last resort.

Here's the full draft if you're curious: https://github.com/hackers-pub/hackerspub/issues/192.

If you've dealt with moderation in federated contexts, what challenges did you run into? What worked well? We'd love to hear your thoughts.

One thing that the public doesn't seem to quite realize about the way that financing works in the tech industry — indeed in all financing, more or less — is that there is an oft-repeated aphorism among VCs, "too much money chasing too few deals". This might seem weird if you are a person who needs money or has ideas that money could finance because you probably don't have easy access to a $100MM series A. But it's key to understanding what is going on (sorry) with the AI bubble

I thought the CCC FreeBSD jail escape exploit would be cooler than it was, but instead it's blocked by basic security hygiene when running jails I guess. I've never seen jails deployed in prod without securelevel elevated. But maybe there are a lot of completely unaware people out there. Who knows.

이 총재는 "서학개미도 우리나라 주식시장이 워낙 옆으로 기었으니까 해외로 나가는 게 좋다고 당연히 생각했던 것이고, 국민연금도 거시적 영향을 고려하지 않고 수익률만 높이려 하면 각자 합리적 방향이겠지만, 큰 틀로 봤을 때 나라 전체에는 합리적이지 않을 수 있다"고 덧붙였다.

그런데 그렇게 볼 거면 한국은행도 독립해 있으면 안 되고 대통령의 지시 하에서 행동해야 함. 자기 부정을 하시는데, 걱정스럽네.

if you're looking for interesting low-volume newsletters to subscribe to, i highly recommend the IANA timezone announcements mailing list.

two or three times per year, you get to learn interesting yet utterly useless facts such as "baja california didn't observe daylight savings up until 1952, used californian daylight savings rules in 1953, went back to using standard time year-round in 1954, observed DST again from 1961 through to 1975, then stopped entirely" and "the Asia/Choibalsan timezone is now synonymous with the Asia/Ulaanbaatar timezone due to, quote, 'wildly conflicting information about mongolia's timezone history'".

@finn I agree. I don't need Vodafone to sniff my traffic and decide if it's "secure" or not. Years ago that service wasn't Active by default. Then something changed and I started to see, from time to time, those "this site isn't secure" pages. I asked to disable it and they did it. But I remember that I read somewhere they're reenabling it and now it cannot be disabled as "it's for our security".

All I ask is that they stop messing with my traffic.

간단하게 요약해보면 GPT님에 따르면 이렇게 화폐가치가 나락을 가는 상황에서 살아난 경우는 그닥 많지 않았다고 함. 트럼프 다음 누가 될지... 다음 대통령이 매우 중요함. 아마 한 10년 봐서 안되겠다 싶으면 나도 결국 다른 나라로 가긴해야할듯.
