What is Hackers' Pub?

뾰족귀때문에 생기는 라인이 넘 귀엽다

꽤나 기분이 좋은 날이었을지도 #고양이

졸려서 이만 자러 갑니다 안녕히 주무시고 좋은 꿈 꾸세요 고양이 사진 투척

冷笑したり悲観的、絶望的になって諦めるよりも、その状況を良くするために自分にできることがなにかを考えたり、その状況が改善した先にどんな良いことが起きるのかを妄想してニヤニヤしてるほうがよっぽど健康的だし建設的だと思うよ

i can’t believe how quick and pleasant Audrey’s Books was when it came to carrying Mages & Modems in-store.

huge thank you to their bookwizard Levi who walked me through the local author consignment program.

also: couldn’t have asked for a better spot beside alan siegel’s (far better) simpsons book 😆

if you’d like to support Audrey’s: https://audreys.ca

there is no bookstore more relaxing to visit in alberta.

훈련소 간 트친에게 보낼 물건을 추천받고 있습니다... 지금까지 생각난 후보들: 트렌드코리아2026 (2027년 전역 예정) 본인(저 말고 군대 간 사람) 사진으로 포토카드 만들기 스타벅스 선불카드 나무위키 문서 아무거나 하나 인쇄해서 보내기 라면 포장지 (음식은 배송 금지니까 포장지만) 아이섀도 팔레트

it's really funny to me that there's a cottage industry around legally signing documents with mock wet signatures using a handwriting font

and this for some reason is legal (not that I think there's any good reason it should not be)

when push comes to shove so much of the law, especially from before the era of law and order, is just vibes

Appreciating Nick Pope's review comments on django/django again this morning.

Folk wanting to level up their Python chops would learn something from reading/studying these reviews.

“As search, synthesis and explanation are mediated through AI models, control over training data and infrastructure translates into control over what questions can be asked, what answers are surfaced, and whose expertise is treated as authoritative. If public knowledge is absorbed into proprietary systems that the public cannot inspect, audit or meaningfully challenge, then access to information is no longer governed by democratic norms but by corporate priorities.”

Welcome to the resistance comrade Schneier.

For my weekly #music thoughts, I thought about a band that I've almost no connection with, and yet has always been there. And I surprised myself at how detailed I got, but I wanted to account for this wider moment we're in too. Perhaps the first and last time I'll ever write about the #GratefulDead https://www.patreon.com/posts/148298211

When I started experimenting with #Linux again in 2024, I was very impressed at how mature everything had become since I last tried it in the mid-00s. The biggest surprise, though, was #GNOME. It had a level of intentionality and clarity of vision that far exceeded my expectations of a FLOSS project. It made me feel welcome and comfortable.

To the developers of @gnome : Thank you for having the audacity to strive for simplicity in the face of continued criticism from the community. It matters.

#rust isn't a superior language. But learning rust's type system makes other languages feel inferior. The curse of knowledge...

Mastodon is looking for recruiting support to help us hire two exceptional backend engineers for multiple ambitious projects. More news on the specifics and the job description to follow soon.

This is a rare opportunity to work closely with our team on a non-technical project. If you might be interested in this or know someone, please get in touch. Ideally this should be fully or partially pro bono and start end of January.

Been thinking a lot about @algernonI'm in my database, and I don't like it's recent post on FLOSS and LLM training. The frustration with AI companies is spot on, but I wonder if there's a different strategic path. Instead of withdrawal, what if this is our GPL moment for AI—a chance to evolve copyleft to cover training? Tried to work through the idea here: Histomat of F/OSS: We should reclaim LLMs, not reject them.
