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.

principles of software distillation:

Old software is usually small and new software is usually large. A distilled program can be old or new, but is always small, and is powerful by its choice of ideas, not its implementation size.

A distilled program has the conciseness of an initial version and the refinement of a final version.

A distilled program is a finished work, but remains hackable due to its small size, allowing it to serve as the starting point for new works.

Many people write programs, but few stick with a program long enough to distill it.

전세계 인구의 44%가 ‘먹는 것’을 바꿔야 기후변화를 막을 수 있습니다. 인구 증가를 고려하면 허용 가능한 1인당 연간 식품 소비량은 2050년께 510㎏으로 줄어들어, 이대로라면 전세계 인구 91%가 먹는 것만으로 온실가스 배출량 한도를 초과한다는 것입니다.

Rust 맛보기 시작 3일차. crates.io에 게시 완료!

초보자라서 공부도 더 하고 싶고, 더 잘 짜고싶은 생각도 있지만, 당장 써야한다는 점도 만족해야하기에

의도대로 잘 돌아가는거 확인되서 바로 올렸다.

much of the world has anti-circumvention laws as a result of free trade agreements with the US. sometimes those laws were accepted by other countries to avoid tariffs on their other exports. now the US is cranking up tariffs left right and centre, and often the response is retaliatory tariffs, but why not repeal those laws instead?

over and over, we are learning that letting others control our computing and machines leads to disaster, but we also have so much to gain by taking that ownership back.

Let's talk about Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States"!

I'd read parts of it in the past along side of many other books that cover the same subjects in US history. But I'd never committed to reading it cover-to-cover. Times being as they are, I knew enough of its contents to know that it is can be a foundation for action. I've started again by borrowing the audio version via Libby app...

미디어에서 '다름'을 다룬다는 것은 참 소중한 일이라고 생각해요.
의외로 잘 다뤄지지 않는 소재이고, 다뤄지더라도 너무 평면적으로 원론적인 얘기만 하는 경우가 많다고 생각함.

@zkatkat this is a poorly formed thought but hearing “community software” makes me think of the end-user community, like how could the end users be an important part of that community?

the “patches welcome” ethos always feels kinda individualistic to me, like it’s about giving a few specific people power instead of making sure everyone’s voice is heard (even those without coding skills)

The Timed Text Working Group invites implementations of an updated Candidate Recommendation Snapshot of Dubbing and Audio description Profiles of TTML2. This specification defines DAPT, a TTML-based file format for the exchange of timed text content in transcription and translation workflows used in the production of dubbing scripts, audio description, translation subtitles and hard of hearing subtitles (also known as closed captions).

"Critical concept: IRIs are opaque identifiers. You cannot infer meaning from the string pattern — only by dereferencing and inspecting the data." [1] This applies to URIs too. Sadly, almost no implementations use this principle. Multi-tenant servers and simple account portability (with personal domains) would be relatively easy if they did.🙄 It is what it is...
