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.

RE: is.nota.live/@encryptedwhisper

This is my new artist profile! Give it a follow if you're interested in my music. I'll still be boosting my music releases on here, but I wanted to provide an account that was just for my music, and didn't require follow requests, so it was easier for music fans to stay in touch.

Debugging fail in : I had a generator function:

def them():
for thing in some_things():
yield thing

But I wanted to quickly try changing it to use a helper that returned a list, so I just added that code at the top:

def them():
return them_from_somewhere_else()
for thing in some_things():
yield thing

Took me a while to figure out why `list(them())` was always an empty list.

Happy , Fedi. 🖤 In these strange times… take a moment to bask in this floof. He’s the bat I rescued earlier this week that was saturated in some kind of mechanical oil and exposed two nights of freezing temperatures.

Nobody thought he would make it through the day. I won’t even post the “before” pictures because it was so very tragic. But here he is, four days later, enjoying a snack while modelling for .

I call him Tiny Turner. And I tell him he’s “Simply the Bats”.

He’s not quite ready for release yet, but tonight some of my longest rehabs will finally be set free around sunset. Big feelings! 🖤🦇

언어모델 가라사대 "지금 “전 세계가 각자도생이라 개판”처럼 보이는 핵심 이유는, 국가 위에 국가를 강제할 ‘상위 주권 (집행력)’이 없기 때문이에요. 국제기구는 많지만 대부분 권고·조정은 할 수 있어도 강제 집행 (세금·경찰·사법·군사) 이 약하거나, 강대국이 빠져나갈 구멍 (거부권·불참·제재 회피) 이 남아 있죠" 라는 응답. 정부의 정부가 필요하지만 만들기 어려움. 답은 있지만 아무도 안하고 싶어함 ㅋㅋㅋ ㅎㅎ

"According to CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, some of his underlings have created an AI clone of him so they can prepare for meetings with him, ensuring everything is fine-tuned for his wants and needs."

Is the next step getting rid of CEOs altogether?

It’s a huge struggle for (non-Substack) indies, so this action from aggregators does help:

“…we’ve taken steps to ensure their content is actually seen. Most of these publications publish far fewer articles than big corporate media so it’s easy for them to get drowned out. Our algorithm team works to give these smaller platforms a chance to surface, while our human editors spotlight their stories in our Daily Edition, elsewhere in the app, and our email newsletters.” about.flipboard.com/inside-fli

The public timeline has been removed from . It is now a discovery timeline that you can tailor to your needs. You will first need to set keywords (which can be changed in settings later).
Now, with the Bloom filter, you won't even notice you're running an ActivityPub server on your device. Syncing data will be super fast.
We kept the ability to revert to legacy mode, but it won't be the default behavior in the next release.

I just finished The South, without realising it's the first of four books. This makes me really happy, because The South is absolutely sublime. I've loved most of Tash Aw's books that I've read, but this is really special. Can't wait for the next one!

1/ Announcement: So today being a news day I might as well announce that the team at TheCanadian.Social has officially taken ownership of journa.host and newsie.social. We have also moved these instances to our facilities in Canada. These are two important instances hosting a large portion of the fediverse's journalism accounts. We felt it important to keep them going as the previous stewards were considering shutting them down.

Iran did interfere in the 2020 + 24 elections but it didn’t do much. Those of us working on the Election Integrity Partnership pointed it out at the time. This same right wing bullshit machine alleged that our work was a “censorship industrial complex” and we were attacked by Jim Jordan, Matt Taibbi and Michael Shellenberger who said there was no such thing as disinformation. The FBI task force that worked on this was disbanded as “censors”. Chris Krebs at CISA was fired and smeared.

연합우주에도 스캠이 있구나. 심지어 uri.life로 가입한 계정이 말을 걸어옴. 요새 AI 성능도 좋은데 티 안나게 잘 좀 낚아봐라. 왤케 성의가 없냐. 아 근데 텔레그램으로 말 걸어오는 애들보다 자연스러운 프사 쓰긴함. 그건 인정.

RE: mastodon.nz/@leighelse/1161497

I worked on a large scale project testing medical transcription. (Maybe one of the largest ones) Hundreds of doctors reviewed the output and called out the issues.

It was not, and still is not, ready. Public health teams that roll this out without red teaming and remediation and feedback and a way to influence the weights of models are irresponsible.
