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.

I was hoping when large media covered Mobile Fortify, the ICE facial app we revealed in June, it would add substantial information. Instead this front page WSJ piece rehashes our reporting, presents it as new attributed to officials, and forgets to capitalize M in 404 Media.
I have covered this app for months, showing where it gets data from, how it is being used on American streets, and DHS's plan to roll out a stripped down version to local police. You wouldn't get that impression from reading this piece, it would appear new to you.
You can read our original coverage here (this is about half of it):

uspol, trans stuff
Erin Reed has a nice piece about reasons for hope in terms of trans rights going into 2026 despite things also being bad https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/the-case-for-hope-transgender-rights
And as for me... it's hard to tell how I feel. I def think things are less scary than they were post the Kirk shooting. And maybe anti-trans stuff is a losing strategy and the conservative coalition is crumbling?
But also, the FDA is sending threatening letters to manufacturers and distributors of *binders* of all things....
Now that's style. https://techcrunch.com/2026/01/05/hacktivist-deletes-white-supremacist-websites-live-on-stage-during-hacker-conference/

I do have to say that I feel a bit in a bind, there are some things I'm going to have to use Blender for soon, and I might have to use a separate machine to do those things, which I would prefer to not do. Most of the rest of it is fairly manageable at this point.
Suspend would also be nice.
But I would be so SAD if I moved away from the Pocket setup as my daily driver at this point, in most ways it really is what I want.
@cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber The eternal struggle of niche open hardware projects. They're hackable, but sometimes they *need* some (potentially involved) hacking to get to where you need it to be.
The Pocket Reform with more polish (around suspend, battery life, etc) would be pretty much my ideal machine for personal use. In its current state it definitely requires some compromises. But I buy these things in part because I want to see them succeed :)

STREET ART UTOPIA @streetartutopia@streetartutopia.com
Most of us walk past a cracked sidewalk or a crumbling wall and see something that needs a repair crew. But for a specific group of creative minds, these urban "scars" are the perfect starting point for a story. Whether it's filling a pothole with colorful mosaics or turning a rusty pipe into a cinematic moment, these artists prove that beauty doesn't require a blank canvas—it just requires a fresh pair of eyes. Here are 10 times street art "fixed" the world in the most unexpected […]

Anytime I start writing an accessibility article I end up with like 2,000 words and start going "no one is going to want to finish this it's too much" and I quit.
It's why I have about 10 unpublished pieces from the past few years where I am annoyingly thorough. Ugh
