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.
I was reminded of Casey Muratori's "Handmade Hero" video project where he shows you how to write a game in C from scratch without using any libraries. It's a cool project, but, hear me out here, libraries are great! You can walk in there and they've got desks and/or computers for you to use, and you can tell the librarian about how you want to make a game from scratch, and they'll be like "that sounds rad" and you can walk out with an armful of game programming books and a spring in your step
I *just* updated this fantasy font to:

Lu dans un programme électoral pour les municipales : « Nous mettrons en place des réverbères dotés de capteurs pilotés par l'IA capables de réagir aux crimes et délits. »
Et j'imagine le réverbère se pencher pour frapper le délinquant.

A quick post to my new LinkTree for links to everything #retrocomputing I do - my main website for all my SAM Coupe development, the two smaller sites for ZX Spectrum hardware and peripherals for RC2014 & compatibles. My other social media accounts and my Tindie and eBay stores.

l’m not sure this is very well known fact but early Playstation 1 console models had more issues with color banding that later ones, they HW patched in the later PS1 revisions so some games would look different depending on where you played it.

US Americans are, slowly but surely, learning what it’s like to be a citizen from anywhere else in the world at a border crossing. Top of the NYTimes is how to get and (gasp) pay for a UK ESTA:

Protobuf definitions make more sense if you're not looking at a truncated one
Okay so language question. When Japanese speakers onomatopoeize "Bang", it sounds to me like they are saying "Pan". Are they saying "Pan" or "Ban", or are they saying "Bang" and it just sounds to me like "Pan" due to my limited familiarity with Japanese phonetics?

I had an earlier post about municipalities leaving X and joining Mastodon and a thought occurred to me.
Cities and towns could benefit from having their own instance running #Friendica - the closest #Fediverse equivalent to Meta/Facebook. It would allow them to have separate groups for neighborhoods or communities within their municipality, and integrate easily with other Fediverse apps. It would give them more control and focus for their communications.

Oh fucking FINALLY, I got Copilot to shut up in VSCode (don't @ me ... Work nonsense). Intellisense is legit one of the best code completion tools on the market. And they replaced it with this nonsense that hallucinates more often than it's true.
Hello, Hivemind - looking for recs for a Python IDE, ideally with no AI tools embedded.
