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.

Trans people on (non-DIY) HRT:

Do you actually personally look at the numbers that come back from the lab from your blood tests (to the extent of having a vague idea of the levels of T/E2/P4/etc. that are right for you); or do you just trust what your doctor says about the levels without looking at the actual data yourself?

(Boosts appreciated, thanks!)

The execution of every single instruction can alter a significant chunk of this enormous amount of state and must do so reliably. But as I mentioned before it's impossible to test all possible combinations and some sequences might lead to inconsistent or corrupted state, which in turn will manifest itself as a software bug. 9/31

Here's a few examples I've encountered: the instruction pointer is fetched from the stack while returning from a function call but it appears wrong, possibly because the wrong instruction pointer was sent to the instruction fetch pipeline: bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug. 10/31

The ICE situation in Minneapolis demonstrates the dangers of database software combined with pattern recognition and meta-data surveillance such as phone data. I'm sad and disgusted that clear danger to democratic society is not recognized by the general public on scale. Palantir is able to convince German federal officials and parliaments to buy their systems. the same technology that is core component of ICE's executive power abuse.

이런 것을 볼 때마다 '인간 유전자의 가능한 조합이 얼마나 적은데 차라리 지금 태어나 있는 어린이 중 나와 가장 닮은 사람을 찾는 것이 나을지도' 같은 생각을 합니다.

MacOS 9: Are you me from the future?

iPhone: No, I'm your replacement. From the future. Now that I think of it, I suppose that part is probably what you were more in awe about.

MacOS 9: You mean I'm dead?

iPhone: <chuckles> Oh yeah. Looong dead. They shoved your remains into your first replacement, then pulled them back out when they got too rotten. Some necromancers revive you from time to time, though. That's actually what's happening now.

MacOS 9: Software needed! 😭😱

華郵記者 Hannah Natanson 遭聯邦幹員拂曉破門扣押所有個人電子用品,包括手錶,目標是找出她的報導消息來源

這裡無意討論美國司法部的行徑是否合法、合憲或產生寒蟬效應。或許一切都有理有據,況且目前台灣應無政府破門而入搜查記者消息來源的風險

然而,開戰之後呢?我們能信任什麼樣的網路溝通媒介?假如敵軍直接、突然、現在立刻沒收你已解鎖的手機,你能保留多少隱私?

E2EE 確保主機端給人破獲也難以解譯,但出問題的是資訊已解密或尚未加密的,你的手機這端

這就是 Media Confidential 本週討論的話題

諸星大二郎の「妖怪ハンター」を読んでみたんだけど、これ妖怪と戦う話というわけではないのね(ずっとそうだと思っていた)
これは70年代のマンガだけど、昔話や民話を深堀りして古代文明や神話などと合わせて考察する、というスタンスは、最近見かけるマンガやアニメをやたら深堀りするような考察タイプの人にウケそうな気がする(YouTuberとかがやってそう)

While working on , I noticed something about how handles object access. When a remote server requests a followers-only post or DM with a valid HTTP Signatures (draft-cavage) from an authorized actor, Misskey still returns 404 instead of the content. It seems Misskey only checks the visibility field (public/home) without verifying the signature at all.

takes a different approach—when is enabled, it validates the HTTP Signatures and returns the content if the requesting actor has permission. I think it would be beneficial if Misskey could adopt a similar mechanism, since it would better respect the access control semantics that ActivityPub intends. Has anyone else run into this, or are there specific reasons Misskey handles it this way?

예전에는 CPU 버그가 드물었지만, 최근에는 복잡성의 증가로 많이 흔해졌다는 이야기로 시작하는 CPU 버그에 대한 좋은 마스토돈 포스팅. 버그가 어떤 식으로 발생하고 여기에 어떤 식으로 준비/대처하는지에 대해 자세히 이야기를 해준다. 습관적으로 마스토돈에 들어갔다가 상당히 흥미롭고 깊이있는 이야기를 발견해서 기뻤다. 주소는 여기

예전에 lwn.net 에서 본 What every programmer should know about memory가 생각났다. Static RAM 과 Dynamic RAM 의 속도차이는 왜 어떻게 발생하는 것일까에 대해 아주 오랫동안 궁금해하던 것을, 회로도를 통해서 직관적으로 이해할 수 있게 해줘서 굉장히 (...인생에서 가장 기뻤던 순간 중 손에 꼽을 정도였다.) 기뻤던 기억이 아직도 난다.

로우레벨 컴퓨팅에 대한 이야기는 내 정신 저 밑바닥에 있는 "아니 그러니까 왜냐고?!" 의 욕망을 크게 해결해주는 경향이 있어서 좋아한다.

그리고 마스토돈의 기본 웹 클라이언트는 브라우저들이 번역을 정말 잘 못한다-_-; 웹페이지의 기본 언어가 브라우저 언어로 맞추어져 보여지고, 그래서 번역할 필요가 없다고 브라우저가 판단해서 그런 것 같다고 이해하고 있는데 이 문제 어떻게 해결할 방법이 없을까 흠 ' -' ...

키워드 뮤트에서 '철학'이라는 단어를 안 쓰고 1~3단어만 등록해서 일반 탐라에서 철학 주제 대화를 걸러낼 수 있을만한 키워드가 뭐가 있을까나

칸트 니체 <- 교양철학 보는 사람만 걸러짐

인간 존재 <- 인외러 걸러짐

**주의 <- 주의: 가 걸러짐
