What is Hackers' Pub?

한국이나 동북부에 계신분들이 들으면 황당하겠지만... 흐 오늘 이동네 왜 이렇게 추운가 ㅠㅠ 앞으로 다시 따뜻해진다고 하긴하는데 털짐승이 히팅패드 밖으로 안/못나오는걸 보면 추운것이 맞긴함...

having full end-to-end control of two of the biggest fediverse platforms is a rare thing.

it means real progress: comment controls, unified messenger, ephemeral stories.

it also helps legitimize smaller projects doing incredible work — emissary, gotosocial and beyond.

we're living the fairytale 🫶

I am an allegedly functional adult so I can have (more) coffee any time I want it. Will it help this yawning and this day? Stay tuned, but don't hold your breath, coffee is sort of decorative to me.

(I once quit coffee cold turkey for a week with no observable side effects, when you're usually supposed to notice symptoms from caffeine withdrawal and so on.)

GIMP has again been accepted as part of the Google Summer of Code project - see the link for details and some project ideas.

We have a no-AI policy: in particular we need people who will understand the code they write :-) and write code that we can maintain.

Feel free to get in touch - see gimp.org/discuss.html

@rakoo @ricciRob Ricci have a read of Lauren's article: connectedplaces.online/where-d

Yes, community on AT Protocol is a nascent concept still, but the separation of identity + data from applications makes it possible to experiment and have one social graph or many.

One project doing community spaces on AT Protocol is: github.com/collectivesocial/op

@thisismissemEmelia 👸🏻 @ricciRob Ricci

yes, if we're looking at mastodon and the model it has created that all microblogging apps have copied, then community doesn't really exist in the technical parts but must be artificially built up. The more interesting example is the threadiverse where communities are literal spaces: people congregate towards one or any number, they are independent from your server and from your identity. This, to me, feels closer to how communities start to create: pick an obvious topic, make obvious-y rules about what is on-topic or not to guide what people can talk about, then possibly graduate from there to another form (maybe a specific, closed community with your people). I do think more visibility should be given to the threadiverse rather than microblogging, or even mastodon, because of all the problems you have listed. And the future direction of AP should definitely split the server from the usage and build apps on the client only !

You think web page size bloat is bad on some things? oh boy.

Good afternoon to everyone, except bumn.go.id (an Indonesian government website) for having a (at least) 3GB web page because of embedded MP4's with uncompressed audio and video seeming straight from the camera...

This must cost so much for them, like a single page load could cost at least $0.15 in cloud egress fees alone

Sup is meant for those who use Snapchat, Whatsapp and Messenger daily, but also brings a clean and refined experience to people who prefer other protocols.

The modular nature of Sup separates identity from protocols to connect you to your people, wherever they are, with push notifications, dark mode, and even video chat!

This should exist, but it would be difficult to grow from scratch...

Unless you had two platforms you could integrate with first class support.

RE: hachyderm.io/@mekkaokereke/116

Mekka's take on the methodological implications on the (lack of) cross-tabs on this study are on point, but there's another thing to look at here: our definition of "platforming". So much discussion of "platforming" is conducted from the perspective of "are these ideas dangerous, is it OK to let people hear these dangerous ideas". That's not what is happening. The speech acts involved are not "conveying ideas" and letting people analyze them.

Reading a post that predicts redundancy of 50% of white collar jobs in the next 5 years due to AI. This is a pro-AI post. Ignoring what seems to me some questionable reasoning, the author does not seem to acknowledge that this may have some pretty negative effects on a societal level.

Donkeys: Whatchu doin goofy human?

Me: Well, I’m taking your picture to try to ease the sorrows of humanity.

Donkeys: We’ve got some sorrows you could ease.

Me: Oh yeah?

Donkeys: Yeah, like, we broke one of our toys and one of us has probably swallowed a large piece of it, but you could get us a new one. And then maybe call the vet.

Two donkeys, up close, peering intently into the frame of the camera, ears up, noses down.
