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.

I'm thriving and the most productive and hopeful for the fediverse, than I've been in years.

Unfortunately, there is a concerted effort to convince people otherwise, I honestly wonder why.

Such intensity could do wonders if used in the right way, for many projects.

Rather than speculate, let’s focus on what matters: shipping, stability, and making ActivityPub better for everyone ❤️

toot that says:

"#pixelfed #loops Heads up folks, DanSup is going through a very dark period of time right now. Having lost a lot of trust in the community, Pixelfed being abandoned essentially and all of the missed deadlines in 2025 on top of Loops being a priority, it's going to be a difficult 2026 for him. Many of us are concerned of this mental well being. For pixelfed, in its current broken state with Activity Pub being broken and neglected features it's going to require concentration."

Unsolicited Advice for First-Time Authors

You all know how I feel about vanity publishers, companies that prey on writers who do not understand their rights and charge obscene amounts of money without actually providing any services or support. Well, recently I spoke to a colleague who worked with a traditional publisher who gave them a different type of contract than what I am used to, and I had thoughts about it.

New blogpost: AI will compromise your cybersecurity posture
rys.io/en/181.html

The way “AI” is going to compromise your cybersecurity is not through some magical autonomous exploitation by a singularity from the outside, but by being the poorly engineered, shoddily integrated, exploitable weak point you would not have otherwise had on the inside.

LLM-based systems are insanely complex. And complexity has real cost and introduces very real risk.

Do you know a good or discussing this discrepancy:

People refering to or with gender (she/he/they instead of 'it') or discussing of (environmental personhood: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environm ) are often accused of , while it seems completely normal for many to refer to like a person. And is quickly adopted for AI but not enough researched/seen in animals.

I'm searching for human-made material only! 1/2

"Das generische Maskulinum fungiert als kognitiver „Flaschenhals“, der den Zugriff auf weibliche Informationen im Gehirn erschwert. Dass diese Studie über 12 Labore hinweg repliziert wurde, macht die Ergebnisse zu einem der robustesten Befunde der modernen Psycholinguistik."

Nachtrag: für Zweifel an den wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen bitte die Kommentarfunktion des Autor verwenden. Typen, die hier was von "Genderideologie" faseln, werden geblocked und gemeldet.

nullhypothese.substack.com/p/w

Alle, die mit dem generischen Maskulinum gut klar kommen, weil sie damit auch gemeint sind - oder sich damit gemeint fühlen - und sich nicht mitgemeint fühlen müssen, sollten bei Einwänden gegen das Entgendern der Sprache einfach mal ein bisschen zurückhaltender sein.

Ihnen fehlt schlicht die Erfahrung, wie sich die Welt anfühlt, wenn eins sich das mitgemeint sein ständig erschließen muss.

Änderung zwischen den Spiegelstrichen oben, aus Gründen :)

여러분 인문학의 반대는 전체주의 입니다. 인문학이 인간이 인간다워지기를 목표로 한다면 전체주의는 인간이 비인간이 되어 도구가 되기를 목표로 하니까요. 한나아렌트가 말한 악의 평범성이 뭔가요 아이히만보고 사람은 착한데 멍청해 라고 말한겁니다. 아이히만은 스스로 사고하기를 포기했어요. 비판적 사고 가치판단을 체제에 위임하고 타인에대한 공감과 이해를 스스로 거세했습니다. 수많은 수용자를 어떻게 수송할까라는 문제엔 천재적이었고 그결과에 뿌듯해 했습니다. 그가 증오워 원한을 원천으로 움직인게 아니라 그냥 국가의 지시에 무비판적이고 가치판단

Hey @bsi, und da gab es wirklich keine ethischere Cloud-Alternative für das Portal, bei dem nicht noch mehr deutsche Steuergelder an Faschismus unterstützende Mega-Milliardäre in den USA fließen? So von wegen und so... 🤔

There are a few vocal members of the Pixelfed community that are upset that I'm busy with Loops.

I spent 8 years building Pixelfed, it's the 2nd most popular fediverse platform.

Loops is almost ready for v1.0 release, which I can then jump back full time to Pixelfed again.

8 years. I can't take a few months off?

Like, I never took a vacation until FediCon, and even then it was about Pixelfed.

I understand the frustration, but at the same time, I'm building Loops, not wasting my time.

Schon bei niedrigen Temperaturen können so stark auskühlen, dass sie komplett regungslos wirken.
🔍 So könnt ihr die prüfen:

• Fühlt unter Flügel/Achseln und dem Gefieder; ist es dort noch warm?
• Sind Reflexe an den Augen vorhanden? Ihr könnt mit dem Finger leicht auf den Augenwinkel tippen, um zu prüfen, ob ein Lidreflex da ist.
• Sind keine schweren Verletzungen oder Leichenstarre sichtbar?

👐 Was ihr tun könnt, wenn mind. einer der Punkte zutrifft:⬇️ 1/2
