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.

@mellifluousboxFelix Hlatky I’m reminded of my early days at the Open Knowledge Foundation @okfnOpen Knowledge Foundation , first as a volunteer and later as an ambassador in Brazil.

After some time, I suggested forming a local group. Due to my involvement, I later worked as a consultant. A member of the core organization coordinated local leadership, supported ambassadors, and held open meetings periodically. That structure was important.

Out of that structure, I founded Open Knowledge Brasil @okbrOpen Knowledge Brasil , which I ran for years before moving to Europe. Being close to people with strong communication and advocacy skills was invaluable, that's where I learned the most.

Today, I see similar energy in the Fediverse, with accounts such as @FediTips and @mastodonmigration. There are also communication professionals, for example, @hpod16Hannah Grace runs a highly strategic account for the @EUCommissionEuropean Commission. Or people like @bjoernstaBjörn Staschen , leading the awesome campaign .

Resources may be limited, but there is clearly a passionate and capable community.
It might be worthwhile to find ways to involve and coordinate this existing expertise more intentionally.

It's not business attitudes that help Bluesky, it's the sheer amount of money and the promise to get this money back in the future by screwing their own users. This is not a model to be emulated, because the resources for it come from future exploitation of ordinary people.

If we want proper long term infratructure that serves the public instead of exploiting it, we need governments to invest in non-profit FOSS projects like Mastodon etc.

I started adding support for services and it looks like it's easier than I imagined it initially.

On the server side, implementing the proxyURL handler doesn't need any new additions as it shares 90% code with other handlers that return objects.

On the client side, I'm creating a new http.RoundTripper that can use the proxyURL transparently for the caller.

As a developer in your client code you only do a regular request for a remote URL, and the round-tripper handles the proxying part transparently if it has all the available bits: a server that supports proxyURL and a valid OAuth2 session towards that server.

Smithereen seems to be the only AP implementation that actually does the LD part of JSON-LD. I find broken contexts all. the. damn. time. By far the most common mistake people make is forgetting https://w3id.org/security/v1 in actors, which makes all the public-key-related stuff not have a namespace, which makes Smithereen think there isn't a public key, which is required for an actor.

🔒 Decoding E2EE: Privacy vs. Usability

E2EE keeps your messages private - but can make adding devices, recovering lost data, or keeping your identity tricky. We make it seamless with unlimited devices, full history, and easy recovery.

누군가 나한테 단도직입적으로 물어본 적이 있다.

"내가 널 위해서 하는 말인데... 너는 왜 극단적 선택 안해? 내가 너같이 어려운 상황에 처했다면 벌써 결단했을거다."

혈연 관계가 있다고 봐도 무방할 정도의 가까운 사람에게서 나온 질문인 만큼 귀를 의심했지만, 진지하게 물어보길래 솔직히 화도 안났다.

솔직히 피식하여 웃었다.

"내가 누구한테 이런 소리를 들을 정도로 저점을 찍었단 말인가? 그럼 곧 고점 한번 찍는 날이 오겠군."

그리고 그 다음 해에 좋은 일이 많이 생겼다.

그 해에 준비하던 프로젝트의 성과를 인정받을 기회가 생겼고, 결혼도 하고, 10년이나 갚아오던 빚도 다 갚았다.

만약 누군가 힘들게 사느니 차라리 죽는건 어떠냐고 조롱한다면, 그때야말로 투자의 방향을 크게 변경할 때라고 생각한다.

너 이제 잘 될 일만 남았다는 소리를 사람들은 참 4가지 없게 하는 경향이 있지만, 그 저점을 잘 잡으면 어려움을 이겨내고 평범한 삶을 누릴 수 있다.

Updates 🚨and more help still needed 🙏🏻.

We’re incredibly grateful to share that her surgery went well and was a success. She came through it bravely, and she’s now on the path to healing. This miracle happened because of you all ❤️.

At the moment, we still have an outstanding vet bill of $300. We’re kindly asking for a bit more help to clear this balance and cover her ongoing care, medications, and follow-up visits.

If you’re able to please give at :

ようやく帰宅したけど雪めっちゃ怖かった。

車運転しててライトはぜんぶ雪の粒に当たるし、どの方向向いても進行方向から吹いてきて吸い込まれそうになる感じだった。

あと轍が一つもない真っ白な路面が一番怖い
