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.

One of the places where many are hoping Bluesky and the ATmosphere improves is — DID-PLC.

DID-PLC and the centralized server plc.directory are at the core of what identity on Bluesky and the ATmosphere is based on.

Unfortunately it is centralized — which is a problem if you are trying to build a decentralized social-networking platform.

To exist online in 10 years, you're going to have to give a random company a face scan and photo ID and they're going to give that and everything you post to the government to spy on you for being queer, left-wing, "a criminal," or whatever. None of your data or communications will be private. The government and corporations will go through all of it.

If you don't want that to happen, you should raise a stink about "age verification" right now because that's what they're actually building.

RE: hachyderm.io/@rationaldoge/116

Is it OK to call them concentration camps yet?

Or do we have to wait until they all get built?

Until they get filled?

Until they become death camps?

Please, if you object to the term “concentration camp” right now, clearly identify your bright line for when that term becomes acceptable.

「UTF-8は31bitまでエンコードできる」
というのはUnicodeのかわりにUCS側の枠組みを取り入れた場合の話で、

・ UTF-8の構造に着目すればさらに36bitまでは自然にエンコードできるし、
・ 後続バイトにバイト数情報を延長することを許せば任意に n byte で 5n + 1 bit を表現できる。

If anyone is looking for a software engineer with a lot of experience (~20 years) with a dozen or so major programming languages, I've been let go recently in a restructuring. Coworkers often come to me for help because I never make anyone feel stupid for asking questions and will help find a solution if I don't have the answer right away. I can design, implement and deploy backend/distributed systems in any language/stack you want. Portland, Oregon, USA or remote.

この間も書いたけど、この間、バッテリー上がりで来てもらったJAFのスタッフが、人手不足で大変なんだと言ってたから、「外国の人、雇えば良いのにねぇ」と言ってみたら「ホントそうなんですよ。上にも何度もそう言ってるんですけどね。なかなか首を縦に振らないんです」とこぼされてましたね。

Will Bunch: "But officials in the small town of just 5,000 also did something else that probably raised some hackles at Kristi Noem’s ultrasecretive Department of Homeland Security (DHS). They made public what few documents that DHS has so far been willing to share with Social Circle, including its blueprint for what the innards of an American gulag will look like.

"Close to two-thirds of the massive, rectangular floor plan is divided into 80 squares separated by narrow corridors, each box with dozens of strike marks. The thousands of marks presumably represent bunk beds but what they truly signify is human beings."
