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.

Die Staatsanwaltschaft verfolgt also einen Teenie für einen flapsigen Spruch über Merz auf einer Schülerdemo.

Na hoffentlich finden die nicht raus, dass hierzulande ein erwachsener Typ frei rumläuft, der non stop ganze Menschengruppen ("kleine Paschas", "Sozialtouristen", "Tassen im Schrank"), arbeitende Bevölkerung ("faul") oder ganze Länder beleidigt,
sonst rückt hier noch die Armee an.

The first ten minutes I spent on social media this morning made me feel all kinds of things. Why is it that people who routinely use LLMs are so loud and brash and proud, making these tools appear as essential and inevitable?

A post by a dev whose app I use said something along the lines of: "no use exercising your coding skills, AI is too good now, you can't compete with it anyway".

Another post by a user on an instance I try to engage with wrote - literally: "tired of overthinking every decision?" and then disclosed he had created an AI that will "run a weighted decision matrix so you don't have to." In all seriousness.

What is this dystopian world where human qualities are devalued, critical thinking is discarded and surveillance capitalism is ignored at the altar of AI worship?

If they are loud and proud, maybe so I can be too... but in the opposite direction.

This weekend I will start the MIT's Missing Semester class (the 2020 Lectures, so pre-AI) because in this brave new world hyping up techno-fascist LLMs, knowing the basics of code are essential IMHO.

So my March "project" will be a deep dive in MIT's Missing Semester and my April project will be off-grid mesh radio communication.

What about you, what are you doing to resist?

Special props to @emilymbenderProf. Emily M. Bender(she/her) @cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber and @tante for being outspoken on these issues... you're my beacons of hope

One thought that I can’t seem to shake lately is that there’s an absence of “accounting for evil”.

There’s a lot of discussion around what people propose we need to do in order to address $CRISIS (take your pick—there’s plenty of them to go around). These proposals usually incude reasonable and altogether positive steps that involve people working together.

And then I remember that there’s a small percentage of the population who classify as either sociopaths or psychopaths. And, somehow, those people end up in positions of power—or control vast sums of wealth, and thus influence those in power.

It makes me wonder how the proposals would change if they accounted for the fact that evil people exist, and that evil people will act (or are acting) to counter their proposal(s).

6년 반 넘게 진행 중인 개인 연구 파이프라인 이제 공개.

선형정칙변환을 로그가 알려진 연산자 (가령 분수차푸리에변환의 로그는 양자조화 해밀토니언. 필요시 i를 곱) 11개로 쪼갠 뒤 BCH공식 써서 로그만 합치는 게 내 목표. 근데 BCH 이게 유한차원에서도 작을 때만 성립하는 판국에 지금은 무한차원 연산자.

그래서 bijective functional 만들어서 유한차원 행렬로 교묘하게 바꾸고 그 행렬에 대해 심볼릭 계산(Ax=y, A와 y는 알려져 있음)하는 중. A, x, y 각각의 원소들간 교환법칙이 성립 안 해서 블록역행렬 쓰고 있는데 완성 못하는 이유가 이 마지막 단계. AI(로컬, 인터넷 다)도 환각뿐.

구체적으로 적자면, (가령) int lambda=0...inf f(z, lambda) 이게 |z|<epsilon(복소함수라고 가정)에서는 수렴은 확실. 이거를 (거의) 모든 실수 z로 해석연속하려면 f를 심볼릭계산부터 해야 하고 이 마지막 단계를 완성 못한 상태.

Funny Signs (10 Photos)

STREET ART UTOPIA @streetartutopia@streetartutopia.com

Some public signs are supposed to keep things orderly. These ones do the exact opposite. From a crosswalk that breaks into music to a handmade warning about sharks in an Ontario wheat field, these funny signs prove that the quickest way to brighten a street is with one smart joke. Here are 8 hilarious signs and sign-based interventions that seriously deserve a second look! 🎼 Musical Crosswalk Sign — By Etisk Vandalism in Landskrona, Sweden 🇸🇪 This is what happens when someone […]

とても長い間、AMDはIntelに比べてcorebootに優しくないベンダーだったが、openSILによって状況が変化しつつある。まだPoCの域を出ないが、将来的にRyzenのマザーボードにcorebootを移植することも現実的な目標になりうる。
