What is Hackers' Pub?

#Spotted at a recent Italian Festival in Aotearoa New Zealand:

Two jolly women (70s?) are leisurely doing an olive oil tasting.
Laughing and comparing notes.
Do they like the chili flavour?
The lemon? Hmm.
Maybe both.
They wander off arm-in-arm, debating the merits of an afternoon Aperol Spritz.

In a marquee behind a food truck: A whistling man (60s?) is wielding a wooden spoon, stirring sauces in big no-nonsense pots.
Every now and then his son calls from the food truck: "How's it goin' back there Papa?"
Whistling Man replies: "Can't rush. It'll be ready when it's ready!"

A woman (60s?) says to her poker-faced parter: "What I really fancy is some balls. Big balls. I dunno what they're called, but I really want some of those REALLY BIG DELICIOUS juicy balls."
Both later seen sitting beneath a shady tree, happily chomping on a couple of arancini.

At a pizza stand, a tiny human (2?) is holding her hands up in the air: "Up Dad! Up!"
Dad picks her up.
Tiny Human considers her situation.
Hmm. Nope.
"Down Dad down!"
Indecisive Tiny Human gets put down and then frowns. Hmmm Nope.
"Up Dad up!"

Two men (50s?) are both motoring side-by-side towards the festival on vintage Vespas. Grinning at each other as they come to a stop not far from the local Italian Club.

Any typos spotted in this post are very much looking forward to eating the take-home arancini they purchased at a recent Italian festival. They are rather big and juicy balls.

그 뭐시냐.... 제가 모임 개최 플랫폼 (대충 https://event-us.kr 혹은 https://connpass.com 같은거) + 지역 기반 리뷰 서비스 (대충 포스퀘어 같은거) 를 만들었는데요.

**당연히, 연합우주 거주민 대상으로 만들어진 서비스이고, 연합우주에 계정이 있다면 누구나 OTP 로그인으로 인증이 가능합니다**

어떻게 만들어나갈지 나름 고민은 많이 해봤고, 내가 생각하는 고민이랑 다른 사람들이 생각하는 수요가 일치하는지 확인도 하고 싶어서 이렇게 공개적인 글을 올립니다.

I've been increasingly concerned about the corporate monopoly over frontier LLMs. While many ethically-minded people choose to boycott these models, I believe passive resistance alone cannot break the structural grip of big tech. To truly “liberate” these technologies and turn them into public goods, we need to look beyond moral high grounds and engage with the material basis of AI—specifically compute, data, and the relations of production.

I've written two posts exploring this through the lens of historical materialism. The first piece analyzes why current “open source” definitions struggle with LLMs, and the second discusses what it means to “act materialistically” in our imperfect world. My goal is to suggest a path forward that moves from mere boycotting to a more proactive, structural socialization of AI infrastructure.

If you've been feeling uneasy about the AI landscape but aren't sure if boycotting is the final answer, I'd love for you to give these a read:

• Histomat of F/OSS: We should reclaim LLMs, not reject them
• Acting materialistically in an imperfect world: LLMs as means of production and social relations

One would imagine Microslop, being a pretty old company by now, would have heard about the Streisand Effect:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect

I mean, they almost certainly trained Slopilot on that particular article (among others).

『メラニア・トランプが国連安全保障理事会の会議を主宰しています。

冗談ではありません。

米国が現在、理事会の議長国を務めており、トランプが主宰者に選んだのが彼女です。』

冗談にすら見えない。地獄絵図。

LLM、claudeやgeminiに自分の描いた絵を読ませて判断してもらうのは時間の無駄だと思う
一家に一台阿諛追従マンとして使うならともかく
文脈に引き摺られ過ぎるので、「首と肩の接続に違和感があると思う」とかを先に言うとそれにずっと固執するし、なんなら向こうが言い始めた事ですら固執して勝手に引き摺られていく。
「改善した。いかがか？」と聞くと「**素晴らしい**ですね」と返ってくるし「うーん、どう思う？」と聞くと「もっと改善できます」と同じ絵でもデタラメが返ってくる

"Not only did Trump’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick admit to visiting Epstein island after lying about it (and has so far faced no consequences), but Trump himself is named more than a million times in the files, according to lawmakers with access to the un-redacted documents. Several victims identify Trump by name, alleging he raped and assaulted them."

“Condé Nast-owned Ars Technica has terminated senior AI reporter Benj Edwards following a controversy over his role in the publication and retraction of an article that included AI-fabricated quotes, Futurism has confirmed.”

“The Epstein class are the warped elites they pretend to hate.

For years, MAGA has attacked minority groups in the name of ‘protecting women and children.’ It turns out the real abusers are the wealthy and powerful.”
