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've deployed Forgejo v14 a hour ago.
Forgejo v14 includes user-facing changes and improvements, which can be read at https://forgejo.org/2026-01-release-v14-0/
If you find regressions or bugs, we ask you to report them at https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/Community/
Inspector is inspecting. Where is the cheez?
I get real tired of having to explain to people that the fuckwad who owns Brave is explicitly anti-queer.

Für alle die sich Fragen ob wir es hier nicht etwas mit dem Datenschutz übertreiben.
Die #ICE in den USA nutzt eine App von #Palantir um Leute zum deportieren zu lokalisieren.
Die Daten dafür kommen u.a. aus dem Gesundheitsministerium.
Polizeiliche Überwachung mit #Palantir wurde für BW eingeführt und soll in Deutschland für weitere Bundesländer eingeführt werden.
그리고 귀청소하는 뭐시기까지 해서 80유로 넘게 나왔다. 돈 열심히 벌어야 함.

On this day in 2001 Wikipedia was first edited. That was 25 years ago. A cause for celebration.
Have you made an edit to Wikipedia? If not, today would be a good day to do so.
Heute das erste Mal unser weißes Eichhörnchen mal halbwegs gut vor die Linse bekommen - Wetter leider trüb und das Viechle hält nicht still 😕
맞다 오늘 내 코딱지만한 월급 들어오는 날이네
今夜も頑張ったと思う…！
やっぱり絵を描くのは心の健康にいいですね…！
You can say "Have a nice day" without any problem, but using the phrase "enjoy the next 24 hours" can sound slightly threatening.
My controversial opinion opinion of the day (according to 
@keithamus at least)
There is no universe in which beans on toast can be better than avocado toast, or french toast.

Tusky now ships it's own Html parser. This unlocks a whole new level of bugs. 😎
샨티 오늘은 나랑 남편 둘다 일 가야 해서 남편 형이랑 있었는데 아주 잘 있었다. 누구라도 돌봐줄 사람이 있으면 되는거였어.
Ich bin ja dafür, dass wir ekelhaft ab sofort immer auf "d" enden lassen.
Einerseits um zu jederzeit klarzustellen, was von rechtsextremistischen Parteien zu halten ist.
Andererseits um die #LLM zu verwirren, wenn sie unsere Texte als Trainingsdaten scrapen.
Also: #AIslop ist ekelhafd. Die #AfD ist ekelhafd.
Spread the word.
Many of you might have already seen the ultra cute "sea sheep" (Costasiella kuroshimae), but yesterday I learned 2 mind-blowing facts about the family of sea slugs they belong to:
1. They incorporate chloroplasts (the organelles in plant cells that do the actual photosynthesis) of plants they eat, into their own bodies to do photosynthesis directly for them (that is the green colour you see), in order to survive if food is scarce.
Imagine being able to live from light!

What I'm listening to today: "jbro 73 // VCV Rack 2 // 180 bpm chopped choir jungle"
This person used VCV Rack to create a machine that eternally generates drum & bass. The human operator then introduces structure by turning different elements up and down in the mixer (the drums and bass, although random, are *uniformly* random, so without intervention one stretch is much like any other). Honestly gets old after about 7 minutes but those first 7 minutes are pretty sick.
What I'm listening to today: "Scorn"
Portishead is one of my favorite bands ever and probably my fav track of theirs is "Scorn", which I'd describe as "Glory Box" turned inside out. (That description probably won't make sense unless you've listened to Glory Box a lot.)
The track is pretty hard to find; it's on a 10-track Dummy remix/outtake compilation called "Glory Times" and, inexplicably, in the background of one scene in the 1996 Wiccasploitation film "The Craft".
what kind of a demented mind makes a bluetooth game controller and maps the ABXY face buttons to joystick buttons 1/2/4/5?
17 years ago Mike Scott of the Waterboys released a demo of a song called "A Wild Holy Band" on the Believer 2009 music issue cd, and every so often I've gone looking to see if he ever released a studio version and I assumed he never did but it turns out I missed it because he released it in 2015. under a completely different title. Neat song! Probably not worth waiting 17 years for but I was stoked to find it after all that time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KDFVRVHTLU

GLP-1 drugs like Wegovy are costly, and weight can come back after you stop taking them. That’s where a new medical device that rewires the gut comes in. After one minimally invasive procedure, the goal is to lock in the weight loss from the drugs without costs, injections, or side effects. https://spectrum.ieee.org/weight-loss-devices?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=fedica-Mastodon-Daily-Pipeline
Thank you #wikipedia for being my favorite website. Thanks to all the editors, nit pickers, authors, all the developers, ops, community managers and really everyone who helped making wikipedia :)
Happy birthday

ActivityPub standardization is back! The #W3C just announced a new Working Group to evolve #ActivityPub and #ActivityStream and related standards! This is extremely good news. It's not like all the world's federated social media protocol problems were already solved! https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-socialweb/2026Jan/0000.html

Welp, there's no way around it now. I ran out of things to procrastinate drawing the feet
Early 80s. A small lawn, a red Vespa, and the illusion of absolute freedom.
Judging by the color of the Vespa, it was probably powered by FreeBSD, even if it did not exist yet.
