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 would love to increase the diversity of the F-Droid board.
If you are a woman, agender, non-binary, and you are keen but unsure about nominating yourself (e.g. you doubt that you have the credentials / experience), I will be more than happy to chat / exchange email / Signal messages etc.

Dropping DUO like a hot potato. Who thought this was a good idea?
"are software engineers Real Engineers or not" is a pointless distraction. software engineers who don't know how to deal with guilt love to self-flagellate with it and other than that there's no basis in reality for that discourse. do something useful instead

Did you know that you can host HTML/CSS/JS demos with execution and source code display on GitHub? All you need is a few include commands in a markdown file and your html/css/js files in a folder.

<p>So NodeBB tests have been failing for the past few days because <a href="http://coveralls.io/" rel="nofollow ugc">coveralls.io</a> is down.</p> <p>Coveralls is a code coverage bot that is free for open source projects. We integrated it into our workflow years ago and it's been trucking along fine all these years.</p> <p>While coveralls being down technically prevents us from running our tool to launch a new version, we could always just do it manually.</p> <p>Their outage page is here: <a href="https://status.coveralls.io/" rel="nofollow ugc">https://status.coveralls.io/</a></p> <p>They are on day 3 of the outage and have absolutely no idea when things will come back up.</p> <p>This paragraph is worded curiously: [...]</p>

If more people were willing to quit their jobs for principled reasons, a lot of things would turn around real quick.
Pytest's parametrize decorator is awesome! Even better is to use your own functions to populate the data:

In case anyone was wondering, TypeScript has polymorphic recursion. I was wondering that for a while.
しばらく前の石破所感についての石破本人と辻田真佐憲の話、ようやく見たけど、けっこうおもしろかった。近代史、もしくは軍事博物館を作るべきという話にこだわりがあって、たしかに啓蒙の重要性というのがあってそれはないがしろにされてきたとは感じる。 https://txbiz.tv-tokyo.co.jp/world/vod/post_332910

@zkatkat thats surrendering the idea of what software should be to the worst actors though, large corporations want software to be irresponsible so its normal for things to fail and not directly their fault, shit like spaceflight computers and most earlier computer engineering id actually say qualifies as such without being 'stolen valor' or what have you, calling it that is succumbing to the lowered standard companies are trying to get away with rather than pointing out correctly that theyre dragging our expectations down to their profit margins so nobody ever even gets the idea of holding them accountable for shit software because 'software is just like this'寶可夢第十世代你確定真的要放一隻屁眼派對狗在御三家嗎真的假的

The Python bitwise-inversion (or complement) operator, "~", behaves pretty much as expected when it is applied to integers—it toggles every bit, from one to zero and vice versa. I [...]
Has anybody thought about modelling #activitypub with a tool like https://alloytools.org/book.html
to find potential exploits? Thinking about the spec it’s missing any algorithms for authorization, but I already found a couple of edge-cases that make a server DoSssable or give an attacker the ability to spoof messages …

One time I interviewed at one of those tech gov contracting outfits that came out of the healthcare.gov/USDS stuff.
Front and center they had clearly stated that they wouldn't build weapons or weapon systems.
When talking to the CEO I called this "an easy ethical choice". I was trying to figure out where the line actually was.
Before I could finish my question he said "As a Business Owner it's not an easy choice."
I think about this a lot any time "A Business Owner" talks about ethics.

✏️ I wrote about django-simple-nav last night. It's a nice library for taking some of the painpoints out of managing menus and options that need to change based on your users being logged in, staff, superusers, or groups they belong to.

Apropos of nothing, the idea that you can measure developer contribution or value by number of PRs is fucking wild.

I just hope we can all understand that there's a difference between "alternatives to American software stacks" and "alternatives to imperialist software stacks."
We have a rare window here where needs of the people and the needs of a democratic, representative state are aligned around independence, agency, privacy and security. But replacing a dependency on distant dominative software with local dominative software is only the illusion of progress.
If the soles are pressed out in nearby factories, if the leather comes from grass-fed cows raised on regional farms, tanned, trimmed and worked into shape by local craftsmen, and these shining, sturdy, artisanally-made boots still end up on our necks, what have we gained?
にゃむにゃんねんこ〜
a part of why i am kinda open-weight-maximalist about this stuff is for local use or hosted provider substitution - there are already some other perpetual subscriptions built into the practice (eg servers, domains) but we're fine with them because they're optional + competitive

Within the upcoming two weeks, Exquisite.chat will officially be launched. The first iteration will be an XMPP server - in a later phase more services will be added.

#關於故事的紀錄 今天去看《雙囍》，諸位，《雙囍》好好看，請進電影院支持
一天辦兩場婚禮很荒謬，但現實人生更荒謬的都有，所以他其實也不荒謬
台灣父母那種情勒大法真是看得心有戚戚焉，感觸到我都滴淚了，很喜歡爸爸媽媽的結尾，沒有強行爸爸媽媽一起合照有種溫柔
香港爸爸這邊負責鬥嘴吵架加溫情，吳爸爸認真起來真的也是逼出眼淚
劉冠廷把庭生那種希望達成父母心願的焦慮、魂好像在又好像不在的樣子演得好好
繼《大濛》柯煒林之後，《雙囍》認識了余香凝，看完不喜歡吳黛玲不喜歡余香凝是不可能的，《緣路山旮旯》跟《白日之下》在清單裡還沒看，找時間要來補上，然後細看他的作品，他有演《翠絲》耶
劉冠庭跟余香凝真的好有火花，很有夫妻感，庭生跟黛玲的小小出逃也很喜歡
最近看的國片幾乎都有9m88，9m88演戲唱歌都不錯，真的是不得了啊
這部也是還有很多想講，一時卡住，有想到再來補
吉岡里帆的客串也是亮點
