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.
完全に寝かたを忘れてますわ
In the interests of remaining off of instagram (and still getting work hopefully) I’ve made an ad for myself. I know this is the wrong audience because like half of y’all are audio engineers too but I had fun making this so here it is #recording #mixing #getfedihired
OH: Titty thursday! Warum habe ich das diese Woche erst mitbekommen!
Another top-tier malware analysis writeup. This is a soup-to-nuts breakdown of CastleLoader, with clear explanations at every step.

Somebody's been yelling at me a lot when I'm in another room and I'm beginning to worry about cognitive decline. Will have to watch him carefully for the next while.
Here he is on our last sunny day which feels like a month ago.
Something inside me healed when 
@maximumrocknroll finally joined 
@The_Counterforce.
Oh wow @maximumrocknroll joined the fediverse! This is one of the longest if not THE longest running diy zines on earth.

some of y'all have been priv mentioning me guesses as to what i'm talking about before voting and my favorite so far has been:
“is this supposed to be an analogy for how the trump administration has been attacking, kidnapping, and victim-blaming marginalized groups”
good to know who's taking home gold in the olympic mental gymnastics
And also not a fan of Anil transitioning to the we-have-to-make-our-peace-with-ai spokesperson. We really, really don’t.

Here's an animated version of the Trapper Keeper art!
Could do more with it, but this is not a bad start. 😎

If anyone is looking to help out folks in MPLS as they're under siege, a trusted comrade has created this fundraiser.

Read the statement from #OpenTelemetry about the Node.js denial-of-service issue reported recently. 👇

Poslední tři roky byl Leo Steiner vrchním ředitelem sekce národních a evropských programů na ministerstvu pro místní rozvoj. Právě tento útvar rozhodoval o tom, zda se subvence vyplatí. A jako takový přestal posílat evropské peníze Babišovu holdingu Agrofert. Že jde o správný krok, potvrdily v následných sporech soudy.

I recently came across an interesting video about a method for identifying AI-generated art. I thought it was worth sharing:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xxui8MoUJ5k
TLDW: Increasing the saturation and luminosity of an AI-generated image reveals artefacts, even in solid-coloured areas.
However, I'm not sure how reliable this method is, since a very similar effect can be observed in JPEGs with medium to high compression. I'd love to hear from anyone who can shed some light on this (pun not intended)!
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

Actually kinda like the new styling on the Safari tab & tool bars. *ducks for cover*
Tusky now ships it's own Html parser. This unlocks a whole new level of bugs. 😎

There's still time to submit to #FluConf2026 which is on at the end of this month. It's a safe, virus-free online conference for sharing ideas about Free and Open Source Software and Culture.
Participating in 
@fluconf is free, and anyone can submit something: a video, an article or blog post, a livestream, a song, a poem or whatever fits the conference themes.
No AI/LLM slop. Just humans sharing ideas.

今天是弟媳產後D23，在昨天外出用餐的美麗閒暇之後，我們又回到日常。今天我請求弟弟和弟媳幫我看一組超貴的德國品牌輪針組；主要是在附近的手作店舖沒看到架上有陳列，我就改打網購的主意，發現手作店的官網雖然有賣，但價格是€189和台灣售價沒差很多，網路上有其他商店賣到€148這樣的低價，請弟媳幫我確認應該不是詐騙網站（她的德文比我弟又好上不少，也在慕尼黑生活更久，更懂這裡的「民情」）後，我就請弟弟幫我下單。弟弟很阿莎力地刷了他的卡，說算是對我的感謝之情。
來這裡後，我常想這個問題：負責大部分家務的那個家人，要如何才能不覺得自己被當成幫傭？而當那麼多人說會將幫傭當成家人，又是怎樣才真正讓人感到「被當成家人」？在我來之前，弟弟就曾訴說負責每日餐食是多麼辛苦，我實際參與後，覺得廚房工作真的讓人感到一整天彷彿都在為了「吃」這件事在勞動，而一個飄飄然忘了想「下一餐是什麼」，就會讓生活節奏掉拍。（今天中午我就因為忘記準備，買了麥當勞來吃）在外食、外送如此昂貴的國度，家務的計價應該更高，因為負擔確實更重。
台灣的便宜人力讓家務更容易外包，這裡的昂貴人力卻迫使人們更花時間在生活。

Running Mastodon on FreeBSD? Stop using wrapper scripts that break service status.
I've refactored the init scripts for Sidekiq, Puma, and Streaming to be fully production-grade:
- Clean privilege dropping (no su wrappers)
- Native signal handling for log rotation
- Correct PID tracking & status reporting.
I published the scripts and the reasoning behind them in my Codeberg gists:
https://codeberg.org/Larvitz/gists/src/branch/main/2026/20250115-FreeBSD_Mastodon_rc.d.md
I use those to run a Mastodon instance and they're working great so far!

So are designers now at the mercy of marketing teams or what?
Zero creativity. All branding. Gross.
"an extraordinarily interesting video that touches on a load of great topics"
No, really! Someone just wrote this comment about my conversation with Marco.
This gives you an idea what it would be like to work with me. What do you think?
(Watching myself is nerve-wracking and sometimes even cringe, but I'm really quite happy with this one!)
love to see Bluesky support Twitch streamers like this 👍
