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.

sort of along my recent repost, the issue at hand has been the same since the dawn of capitalism: when automation increases productivity, who gets to capture the value of that productivity increase? the beef is not with the productivity. it's with the value capture

Using the ActivityPub API for cross-server interactions

PSA: I have enabled auto-deletion of my posts. Genuinely surprised why I didn’t when I made this account, it is my favourite feature of Mastodon and usually I activate it immediately 😅 apologies if I’m breaking past conversations. But I love the feature for 2 reasons: firstly, it helps limiting my digital footprint, secondly, it makes my “weight” on this server smaller and thus help with resources utilisation; and as a sysadmin myself, I like cleaning up past content 😎

Too many people are trying to differentiate between ICE and police.

I will hold your hand as I say this:

Police in the US treat marginalized people the way ICE treats everyone. They're far more similar than you want to admit.

Defunding the police and abolishing ICE are the same fight.

“When I was about 20 years old, I met an old pastor’s wife who told me that when she was young and had her first child, she didn’t believe in striking children, although spanking kids with a switch pulled from a tree was standard punishment at the time. But one day, when her son was four or five, he did something that she felt warranted a spanking–the first in his life. She told him that he would have to go outside himself and find a switch for her to hit him with.

Pretty cool podcast episode about three guys (@kevinKevin Roose and @CaseyCasey Newton of Hard Fork, and @pj of Search Engine and Reply All) setting up a Mastodon server called the .

There's also a pretty sweet melodic breaks track at the end of the episode that I need to know the name of (or at least the artist)!

@RaccoonRaccoon🏳️‍🌈 @kevinKevin Roose fascinating listening to @pj sell the Fediverse in 2026.

Many of us have been here, happily waiting for you since 2017. Welcome, friends.

"The Internet is horrible out there!" you proclaim, soaked from the storm.

Yes. We know. We've been waiting for you. Have some soup. Pull up next to the fire. Warm yourselves. We're glad you made it in. From that storm so many of us left. Long, long ago.

Fellow *non*-Americans—are you using any or all of the U.S. support for Israeli wars and the Israeli genocide on Palestinians, the U.S. attack on Venezuela, the annexation threats against Greenland, or other U.S. policy decisions to move away from U.S. products and services?
