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.

Don't believe those who loudly claim email can not avoid metadata! They are ignorant of our continuous works on minimizing metadata:

DONE:

- no phone number other identifying data needed
- no cleartext "Subject"
- no cleartext "To"
- randomized "Date"
- no IP addresses
- group/avatar/attachment/etc metadata only contained in encrypted message parts

Upcoming:

- servers to never see cryptographic ID metadata
- remove "threading" and auxilliary headers
- experiment with Sealed Sender

A life development happened causing me to really urgently need a job, if you have any sway with recruiting software engineers/programmers (permanent or contract) at the company you work for please recommend me if I appear like a good fit. Cold applications have failed me universally over the last two years.

I primarily program in C#, Rust, Swift and Python. I still can program efficient and idiomatic C/C++, Go, Java, Javascript (and variants), Lua.

I can do graphics programming, systems programming, algorithms, data engineering, database management, system administration and backend programming. Of those, I specialize in lower level areas like algorithms, systems and data.

While remote work is preferable, I hold an EU passport and am willing to relocate to anywhere within the EU. As for remote, my times are flexible and can accommodate for any time range.

My desires for time off only exist on weekends, and I'm tolerant to crunch time provided it's not longer than three months at a given time.

I’m thinking about buying one of the harnesses for my dog that will let me support her back end while we walk and on stairs. I am a little skeptical on how comfortable it is though. Anyone have experience using one of those with their elderly dogs?

작년에 제일 잘한 일은 제미나이 유료 플랜 산 것. LLM 자체와 그 외 여러 부분에서 많은 공부가 되었다. 정작 본업에서는 생각만큼 큰 도움이 되지는 않았지만 돈이 아깝지 않은 소비였음. 😅

RE: wandering.shop/@cstross/115842

What an article. This stood out:

> Strikingly, the majority of young people do not identify as either right- or left-wing. Instead, young women see their politics as flowing from their deeply held progressive personal values, which they increasingly think are at odds with the country they see around them.

Why are we talking about young men going rightwards and the men's "loneliness epidemic" -- when the movement among young women is starker and it's men who are driving women away with sexism.

Looking at the stats, it’s clear Loops isn’t just retaining new users — they’re engaging more, especially when we ship new features.

I'm so proud (and a bit surprised). 🥹

A year ago: big hype + an early platform, fair criticism about the Terms of Service and missing source code.

Today: fully open-source, better Terms, federated, a gorgeous new mobile app, and a For You feed people actually use.

Don’t give up. Keep shipping. ❤️

Okay for a couple decades I thought the first line of "I'm Afraid of Americans" is saying "Low tax at the wheel" and I occasionally ponder this haiku-like attempt to condense America into five words. That's not what he's saying. He's saying "Lo-Teks". Like from William Gibson. At one point an early version "I'm Afraid of Americans" was being workshopped as potentially going on the Johnny Mnemonic soundtrack, that didn't happen, but this permanent reference to Lo-Teks is in there as an artifact

Happy birthday to & Nicole-Reine Lepaute (1723-1788)! My celebrates her calculated path of the solar eclipse of 1764. She also worked with Alexis Clairaut & Jérôme Lalande to precisely calculate the date of return of Halley’s Comet, solving the notorious 3-body by hand (including the gravitational pull of Jupiter & Saturn on orbit). They worked in parallel, calculating for 6 months straight, barely stopping to eat!🧵

My linocut print of mathematician & astronomer Nicole-Reine Lepaute (1723-1788) in a vertical gradient (bottom to top) of bright pink to lavender on white paper. She wears a wig and gown and the portrait is from the chest to head. Her 12 diagrams of the phases of the annular the solar eclipse of 1764 as viewed from Paris appear across her shoulders. Behind her head in green is her map of the path of the eclipse across Europe.

: As has been documented recently, there is a strong increase of influence campaigns into the spheres: yes, our communities are now big enough to attract the attention of State and State-adjacent Actors.

PLEASE be cautious. If you see something which makes you sad, or angry, please do not engage until you understand why you feel emotional - you may be being manipulated into stronger reactions.
