What is Hackers' Pub?

와아아 멸망이다아아아아아

You know how everyone's freaked out about how technology is impacting teens? Notice how often the voices of teens are missing from the conversation? Come to the Wayfinding: Teenhood event next week and hear a panel of actual genuine teens talk about their perspectives on it! It was so hard to put this one together because teens but I am so freaking excited about it because teens!! https://luma.com/wayfinding3 #toronto

OK, I'm keeping a permanent top-five list of best Fediverse-themed songs. I'll update as more songs are made!

3. Moi aussi je peux décentraliser des trucs si je veux

@alexiaAlexia ΘΔ @liaizonwakest ⁂ I don't think SWF wants to be "the" organization for defining applications on the Fediverse, but we do want to clear obstacles to collaboration between developers. There are at least two other groups doing social standards on ActivityPub right now:

日本今年1月外國遊客人數統計4年來首度錄得下跌，較去年1月少了4.9%

中國旅客急寫60.7%，只餘38.53萬人，是上月遊客減少的主因

香港按年跌17.9%；初步觀察，即使計及農曆年因素，這個跌幅也偏大，但要觀察本月數據才能更準備掌握最新港人遊日意欲

Alex Karp, CEO von Palantir, des Konzerns für Überwachungssoftware, hat in einer Videokonferenz mit Investoren gesagt:

„Palantir ist hier, um [...] die Institutionen, mit denen wir zusammenarbeiten, zu den Besten der Welt zu machen. Und wenn nötig, werden wir unsere Gegner einschüchtern und sie gelegentlich sogar töten. Wir hoffen, Sie unterstützen das.“

Da will jemand Gott spielen - und lädt Firmen und Regierungen mit Geld dazu ein, mitzuspielen.

Kein deutsches Steuergeld für den Dreck!

Every now and then people break into a fight on here over fediverse vs the Atmosphere (or Bluesky, as its main representative).

I get it. Many of us get frustrated when we see people flocking to a VC-funded fediverse competitor.

But let's focus this energy on making the fediverse a place people want to spend their time in.

「青海」も、2種類読み方があります。 「あおみ」（東京都）と「おうみ」（新潟県）ですね。 ちなみに、新潟県には「青海川（おうみがわ）」という駅もあります。

Seriously, I don't think most Americans have put together that natalism, "naturalism," anti-science, anti-medicine, anti-vax, pedophilia, misogyny, queerphobia, eugenics, racism, anti-immigrant xenophobia, anti-woke, anti-DEI, and disempowering labor through automation and "AI" are all interlocking parts of modern fascist ideology.

Decentralised social media isn't just a tech experiment, it's critical infrastructure for a resilient democracy. Bertelsmann Stiftung's latest report explores how open protocols like ActivityPub can break tech monopolies.

How do we scale? The report calls for better usability & lower entry barriers; mandated interoperability via EU policy; public institutions hosting their own instances.

방콕 여행 좀 알아보다가, 한국인들이 많이 줄었다고 해서 바트화 환율을 봤더니, 어... 줄어들만 했네. ㅋㅋㅋ; 싼 물가를 원하면 베트남이라는 대체재도 생겼고 굳이 태국을 고집할 이유는 적어졌지.

Everry once in a while I post a link to this masala chai recipe: I wish every hipster cafe that claims to make ‘chai’ would just follow this recipe

(Ideally, don’t use a tea bag that claims to be for ‘masala chai’. I’ve never found a decent one)

I talked about it before in this thread:
https://mastodon.social/@reiver/114421698141076701

But —

The Fediverse doesn't have a single culture. It has many cultures.

The Fediverse doesn't even have a single mass-culture.
https://mastodon.social/@reiver/114225137060121782

Different parts of the Fediverse and different groups of people on the Fediverse have different cultures — different social norms, different traditions, different (cultural) expectations, etc.

Wow, it's snowing in Vancouver

국민은 선거에서 잘못된 선택을 할 수 있다. 한국만이 아니라 선진국에서 모두 벌어지고 있는 현상이다. 이를 어떻게 보완할 지에 대한 고민이 필요하다. 4년, 5년 후에 다시 선택한다는 여유가 없는 시대가 되었다.

It's a problem that we only have one Universe. It's very hard to do statistics with N=1.

내각제는 정치 불안이 단점으로 꼽히는데, 미국과 EU를 보면 민주적 정당성을 지닌 의회가 빠르게 재구성 되고, 거기서 정부 수반과 내각을 조직하는 내각제의 유연성과 대표성이 이 시대에는 더 필요하지 않는가 생각이 든다.

Don't use the term cargo-culting, it's racist and offensive. You can use the far more expressive alternative: claude-culting.
