What is Hackers' Pub?

0.9.0 is here!

This release brings /await support to parsers. Now you can validate input against external resources—databases, APIs, Git repositories—directly at parse time, with full type safety.

The new @optique/git package showcases this: validate branch names, tags, and commit SHAs against an actual Git repo, complete with shell completion suggestions.

Other highlights:

  • Hidden option support for deprecated/internal flags
  • Numeric choices in choice()
  • Security fix for shell completion scripts

Fully backward compatible—your existing parsers work unchanged.

一般社団法人日本自閉症協会 (@asjoffice) on X
比喩的造語である「デジタル自閉症」の使用に反対します。

子どもがスマホなどを長時間視聴することで現れる子どもへの悪影響を「デジタル自閉症」と最近呼ぶ人がいますが、これは自閉症への誤解を生み、偏見を助長します。 x.com/i/status/200800299480640

Are you following the speakers of the track? Am I missing someone? When are Packs going to be released? Is there life in the universe besides Earth?

You can also follow most (only the discoverable accounts) in one step, using packs here: fedidevs.com/s/ODE0/

Okay, 2026 is the year I am going to actually get back into writing.

I have three ideas for articles lined up.

1) Advanced, and often crazy, networking under FreeBSD.
2) MPLS on JunOS in my home, the how and why.
3) A brief history of IP Networking; Classful vs CIDR and FLSM vs VLSM.

Now I just gotta do it.

Missing Med-Mastodon? Come to postcall.pub!

julian @julian@community.nodebb.org

<p>The sudden shutdown of Med-Mastodon was a shock, splintering the medical and science community, and causing years of quality content to become lost. Over the holidays I made it my mission to create that space for the medical (and allied health) community on the fediverse once again.</p> <p>Introducing <a href="https://postcall.pub/" rel="nofollow ugc">postcall.pub</a>! <strong>Postcall.pub</strong> is the digital lounge for clinical practice, medical science, and everything in between. A decentralized home for the medical community to think, share, and connect.</p> <p><img src="https://community.nodebb.org/assets/uploads/files/1767631104191-e3f2a72a-90a3-468b-ba97-d8c5dba5eb19-image.png" alt="e3f2a72a-90a3-468b-ba97-d8c5dba5eb19-image.png" /></p>

It's sad to see instances shut down without warning, I'm working on a short term and long term plan

The short term plan: Personal Archive Node (PAN) - The Mini-PDS

PAN will work with Pixelfed, Loops, Mastodon and other projects, and you can self-host or use a trusted PAN server, giving you peace of mind knowing *most* of your data is easily recoverable + migratable to another server, should you ever need it ✨

The long term plan: Personal Data Vault (PDV) - DID Layer for ActivityPub

I want to mumble for a bit about "worldbuilding". Of course the term is vague and disputed, but I find a lot of folks seem to think in terms of 'players/readers that like it and those that don't'.

I think this idea is a bad one, because I hear devs talking about making worldbuilding stuff for that group, or avoiding it because of the other group.

Seems like a bad way to organize your process.

Worldbuilding is useful in specific ways, and useless if done without those goals. 🧵

Fediverse account backups via 3rd party FOSS service

Personal Archive Node (PAN) is quite brilliant, its compatible with most fediverse software already, and uses a dual strategy for data backup, with one being adaptable to most fediverse software via adapters.

While not exactly ideal, PAN solves the issue of unforseen instance shutdowns in a short term fashion, while paving the way for a long term, more efficient solution ✨

More details soon.

What X is allowing Grok to do is unlawful or regulatory-illegal in multiple jurisdictions, creates clear DSA violations, and continues despite regulator scrutiny. The images do not need to be pornographic, non-consensual sexualised or intimate depictions are enough.

💬 Digital cash without privacy is meaningless. If money moves digitally but your data is exposed, we haven’t gained freedom; we’ve only traded paper trails for digital footprints.
