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.
I've been working all day today improving, fixing, and enhancing the comments system in Incise.
- Comments are now correctly listed for #ActivityPub fetches
- Comments are now likable from the web UI as well as through #ActivityPub
- Comment replies are now #federated as well
- Comments by remote actors (eg. Mastodon users) liked by Incise users are now #federated
An example of the last point, this comment by

石破さんを象徴する言葉としてよく言われるのが「まず……◯◯とは、何か」というフレーズです。実際に彼がどの程度そのフレーズを使っているのかはわかりませんが、まず定義を確認し、そこから何が言えるのかを考えるのは学問において基本的な思考回路だと思います。
たとえば「Aはかねてから恨みを持っていたBに復讐する機会をうかがっていたが、Bが大切にしている壺がB宅の庭に置いてあることに気づき、ひそかに壺を持ち出し近所の空き地で粉々に割った。Aに窃盗罪は成立するか」を考えるには「まず窃盗とは何か」を考える必要があります。窃盗とは何か。他人の財物を窃取することです。刑法に書いてあるので間違いありません。では物を壊す目的で持ち出すことも窃取でしょうか。そうだと考えると、Aが庭で壺を割る場合と空き地まで持っていって割る場合で窃盗罪が成立するかが異なり、したがって刑罰も異なるでしょうが、それでよいでしょうか……
もちろん、政治的な問題は「窃盗の定義は刑法に書いてあるので間違いない」のようにははっきりしないことも多いでしょう。しかし、「当面これを定義として議論しよう」と考えることはできます。
Gaza under Israel fire as desperate Palestinians seek supplies
Israeli artillery and aircraft continue to pound areas across the Gaza Strip, ignoring a US-brokered ceasefire that took effect more than three months ago.

One of the dreams of Web 2.0 was that website would speak unto website. An "Application Programming Interface" (API) would give programmatic access to structured data, allowing services to seamlessly integrate content from each other. Users would be able to quickly grab data from multiple sources and use them for their own purposes. No registration or API keys, no tedious EULAs or meetings. Just pure synergy!
Is that dream dead? If so, what killed it?
A decade ago, I posted a plea looking for Easy APIs Without Authentication with a follow up post two years later. I wanted some resources that students could use with minimal fuss. Are any of the APIs from 10 years ago still alive?
These ones are still around:
These have shuffled off this mortal coil:
These are still alive, but you either need to pay or register to use them:
Something something … enshittification … blah blah … zero interest rate phenomenon … yadda yadda our incredible journey …
But back in the land of rationality, I've had a lots of experiences running APIs and helping people who run them. The closure and lockdown of APIs usually comes down to one or more of the following.
APIs cost money to run. Yes, even the static ones have a non-zero cost. That's fine if you're prepared to endless subsidise them - but it is hard to justify if there's no return on investment. Anyway, who is using all this bandwidth? Which leads on to:
Lack of analytics. Yes, I know tracking is the devil, but it is hard to build a service if you don't know who is using it. Sure, you can see traffic, but you can't tell if it is useful to the end consumer, or what value you can share. There's no way to communicate with an anonymous consumer. Which, of course, takes us to the next barrier:
Communication is key. If you need to change your API, there's no way to tell users that a change is coming. That might be the announcement of a deprecation, an outage, or an enhancement. You can try smuggling error messages into your responses and hoping someone notices a failing service somewhere - but it's much easier to email everyone who has an API key. And you know what else keys are good for?
Stopping abuse. It'd be nice if everyone played nice online; but some people are raging arseholes. Being able to throttle bad actors (figuratively or literally) is a desirable feature. On a resource constrained service, you sometimes have to put rules in place.
Still, if you know of any good open APIs which don't require registration, and that you think will survive until 2036, please drop a link in the comments.
