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.

我們這些「台獨份子」說破嘴也總不被死忠藍相信的那些事蹟, 都寫了,還比我當時所知(真的很少就是了)的要更深入許多。

那才是寫得好的「現代武俠」;正如金庸擅長把虛構的功夫編夾進歷史一樣,張大春也把他與父輩作為「外省人」的經歷,揉雜了奇門遁甲與功夫,寫成一部虛虛實實的故事,而我對國民黨的真實歷史知道愈多,就愈心驚於小說映照得更多。

而張大春,他非常清楚國民黨是個藉由暴力團(黑道)、暗殺、特務……等力量遂行恐怖統治的真實本質的,卻在鄭南榕被逼自焚後,投書報紙大大地羞辱鄭南榕、嘲諷民進黨一番,現實中的他遠比《城邦暴力團》小說裡活得如同老鼠般的張大春更卑猥不堪,又一次藉由小說映照了真實。

所以,是的我非常討厭張大春,可是我還是推薦這套小說《城邦暴力團》。它比我的歷史課本更清晰地勾勒了(國民黨那部分的)台灣近代史,它更以自身與作者訴說了,如張大春這樣的鐵藍「文人」有多麼下賤又悲哀。

@nightside 說到金庸,他第一部的《書劍恩仇錄》諷刺乾隆為了權力地位翻來覆去,善於妥協的陳家洛一事無成;後來《笑傲江湖》也不乏毛澤東和文革的影子,主角看出打著正義旗號的往往不是好人然後歸隱山林

晚年金庸卻為香港提出極保守的政治方案、支持中共,這串經歷也很接近了

anyway that was the first difficult thing 2. the second difficult thing is designing social coordination primitives between components. the most basic one is <Link> — of course it goes to an at:// URI, but what does this actually mean? which component gets displayed? is this contextual?

on implementation side, i just turn these tags into React Server Components tags (with Client components where appropriate) so it's just whatever i can express using React component model. it mostly ends up CSS but there's there's also server and client logic for things like <List> pagination

Saw a post on fedi about The Expanse and that got me thinking about my favourite genre again, dystopian sci-fi.

Would love book suggestions along those lines, but tonight it's time for Silo, season 1 episode 1!

看到有人評九把刀是「少數寫現代武俠」的作者,但我覺得九把刀的作品B級,很難認可他的所謂「現代武俠」的地位。說到「現代武俠」,我仍然認為我討厭的作者張大春寫的《城邦暴力團》寫得最好,是我難以理解他身為鐵藍為何又那麼下作的好。

最近再次想起1999年出版的《 》,是因為看到象友推薦 EP132時,引述了受訪者徐紹綱說的,他從檔案中讀到「王師凱」這個人一再出現,追查下去卻發現……這不是一個人,而是國民黨的一個黨部名稱,就像黃復興那樣。

我在看到這段講述時,瞿然而驚,這就是《城邦暴力團》反覆在說的手法與概念呀!《城邦暴力團》講述的是一個真正的史實,它甚至比我讀過的國立編譯館的歷史課本還要清楚交代國民黨是怎樣的政黨:它從在中國大陸時就藉黑幫之力崛起(書中的漕幫、清幫大致為真)、蔣介石得了性病、少數重要人物才有資格隨國民黨撤退來台、在來台的船上,正直的外省人也動不動被砍頭,餘下的見證者為了活下來不得不整個餘生都卑鄙地保守這個秘密、漕幫(青幫)在台灣「落地」後的眷村子弟組成了竹林聯盟(竹聯幫)並壯大……

so in a sense even if the entire API changes, a <Heading> is still the best name for a heading, and maybe old props still work, or maybe they're gradually no longer interpreted. that's also kind of like html

I recently posted about archive.today (also archive.is, archive.ph, archive.fo, archive.li, archive.md, and archive.vn) using its archive links to launch a ddos attack against a blogger they accused of doxing them: mathstodon.xyz/@11011110/11602

That attack triggered (at least, the English part) to discuss banning archive.today links, and the ensuing discussion turned up evidence that (as part of the same dispute with the same blogger) archive.today had also tampered with its archived content to falsify certain names in old archived links: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedi

This led to a quick close of the discussion and a consensus to remove all archive.today links from Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedi
For the same reasons I have removed all archive.today links from my blog, where I had been occasionally using them as a convenient way to access paywalled content. I suggest that others remove their links as well, lest you unwittingly become part of additional ddos attacks and falsification.

so effectively there's an "html" of it (<org.atsui.*>) but it's really my first guess at what i think that html is like. i thought about version numbers but kinda concluded it's fine not to have them. i'll probably support everything "forever", like html, maybe with deprecations

out of curiosity, when did you first start using unix systems?

(please no replies with details on this one, if none of them fit exactly that's ok, just trying to get a very rough sense)

in this system, some tags are considered built-in. i'm gathering them into <at.inlay.*> namespace (language primitives) and <org.atsui.*> (the initial design system i'm developing). but in principle any "browser" (interpreter of these tags like @inlay.at) can choose other nsids as primitives.

NewScientist: "Antibodies harvested from the blood of paediatricians are up to 25 times better at protecting against the common respiratory infection RSV than existing antibody therapies, and are now being developed as preventative treatments"

This is both so logical and yet absurdly like a science fiction story ...

or do we have a <List> with multiple built-in layouts, or is this a <List layout> enumeration, or is <List> responsible solely for pagination while some layout thing above decides on how the items are rendered? i don't know! for now my approach is to rebuild some existing uis and see how it feels

Instead of defending the use of LLMs for polishing up your writing, we could be advocating for unpolished writing. Blog posts with spelling errors and awkwardly repeated words. Emails that sound a bit less warm and professional because you forgot the preamble of "Apologies for the late reply, hope you're well! Thanks for the thing last week".

If there's no budget for a human editor, why should the text meet a "professional" (middle class, formally educated) standard? Dyslexic people can just write how they write and people can deal with it. Autistic people can just say what they mean to say and not waste energy on the double empathy gap.

We can learn to read for a more inclusive world, instead of wasting the planet's diminishing resources masking our differences.

anyway, this has been difficult for me. like for example today i'm fighting image proportions — we need them as grids sometimes, and sometimes with clamped aspect ratios — is that something we build into the <Image> component, or do we have a <Clip> component that can clamp it, do we need a <Grid>?

i'm not using html although it is a possible alternative direction. i was thinking html is too low-level for this although maybe some subset can be an escape hatch. it feels like the design language has to have some producty things like <Avatar> or <Tabs> or <Gallery>. some layout but not all

In which, Blaine Cook ( @blaine ) explains "What is OAuth?" in the framing not of standards and specifications, nor in technical terms, but instead in this framing:

two weeks of running

number of files generated by snac is huge, but i don't care that much anymore.

$ du -hd0 /var/snac
133M /var/snac
$ find /var/snac | wc -l
35603
i like snac a lot: i run my own server and client, i can modify css (and i do tweak it often, i can modify the source code---didn't get to that yet ;)

sometimes i use snac command line, but mostly snac web ui and nothing else.

someday maybe i'll try to build some minimalist server, but looks like a lot of work :)
