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.
We unit test code's correctness—so why not unit test performance as well?
Having thought about the problem a little, here's my suggestion for a first step: testing big-O scalability.
I don't think vendoring code is inherently bad, per se, but I do find it more emotionally satisfying to file issues and feature requests upstream and work with other developers on making things better for everyone.

watching a video about the most anticipated games for 2026.
it's funny how in a medium that imposes no limits, so many things look like other things.
but i guess i could say the same about electronic music.
seems to me if you make something totally out there, you need to publish a bridge of intermediate works that transition from the familiar to the strange.

When I was in college, I accidentally bought the a printed copy of the C# language *reference* instead of a book about how to learn C#. The bookstore didn't take refunds, and I didn't have enough money to go back and buy the right book, so I taught myself C# from the EBNF.
I don't recommend this approach, it is not a good approach.

Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey at a press conference shortly after ICE murdered a woman on their streets. I edited it down to the most important parts.
His message for ICE: “get the fuck out of Minneapolis.”
It’s cussy, so mind the volume if that matters where you are.

Here’s an interesting new JCGT paper showing that small neural nets can outperform LUTs in speed/memory/accuracy even when embedded in purely CPU-based renderers. The authors are some ex-Pixar rendering guys who are now at Aurora.

"Secret police" is often misunderstood to mean a force that operates covertly, with all their operations secret. But a secret police force's actions are often public. The secret part is hiding their identities, because they're breaking laws to hurt politically disfavored people, and fear reprisals.
I am sitting out on my back deck and a delivery drone flew over the neighbor behind me, landed, and took off again. It was quite large and clearly left without the payload it was carrying. What was most surprising is that it was basically a vtol - it had wings and flew like a plane till it started hovering. That was a first for me.

Heartbreaking update from #tailwindcss. They had to lay off 75% of their staff yesterday due to #AI driven losses.
I really don't see how the #OpenSource industry survives this. The days of making your source and your docs open to the public is quickly disappearing.

I have that Studio Display flickering issue in Tahoe that people reported. I'm somewhat sure this is solely due to 
@dlxrobb crazy HDR profile icon.
One of the hardest things about being an immigrant is I don’t know what to do with ‘rugged individualism’.
I am considered one of the most ‘westernized’ and ‘independent’ people in the society I come from (people think it’s too much.. moving to a whole other country? Too independent) but
Even I really struggle with some of the daily manifestations of hyper individualism that surrounds me.
A friend had just visited a developed Asian country and wondered why it wasn’t full of homeless people. I said well it’s probably that East Asian homelessness looks different, but there’s probably an element of.. you don’t want to be the person who people say let your second cousin die and starve on the streets. The social shame, I tried to explain. Also, if it’s a warm or religious place, they have food.
I felt it was very similar to what I saw my parents grasping with when they visited me. On BART, kids were making loud sounds. My parents glared at them. Nothing happened. They were confused. I had to explain to them that.. there is just no social shame. Glaring at them doesn’t mean anything, they just think you’re weirdos. It isn’t anyone’s business that they’re making loud sounds.
So while I think there are pros to some community consciousness, I also think the people who want to sell a vision of ‘collectivist societies are better’ are also failing to account for the patriarchal bs that comes with it. We take care of our elderly because we are shamed by it, but it is largely the mothers and grandmothers doing the work.
But what I’ll never, ever get used to is this: the idea that in some places, poor people, sick people, elderly people, deserve to be cast aside and deserve no help. That’s a level of cruelty I do not wish to understand.

Recently, the application of AI tools to Erdos problems passed a milestone: an Erdos problem (#728 https://www.erdosproblems.com/728) was solved more or less autonomously by AI (after some feedback from an initial attempt), in the spirit of the problem (as reconstructed by the Erdos problem website community), with the result (to the best of our knowledge) not replicated in existing literature (although similar results proven by similar methods were located).
This is a demonstration of the genuine increase in capability of these tools in recent months, and is largely consistent with other recent demonstrations of AI using existing methods to resolve Erdos problems, although in most previous cases a solution to these problems was later located in the literature, as discussed in https://mathstodon.xyz/deck/@tao/115788262274999408 . This particular case was unusual in that the problem as stated by Erdos was misformulated, with a reconstruction of the problem in the intended spirit only obtained in the last few months, which helps explain the lack of prior literature on the problem. However, I would like to talk here about another aspect of the story which I find more interesting than the solution itself, which is the emerging AI-powered capability to rapidly write and rewrite expositions of the solution.
