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 added a few more tribute sites to our beloved, life long digital companions:
(If you find incorrect data, make me aware of it and I'll promptly update - it's a weekend project with lots of heart more than anything else.)
Started to get back into Erlang yesterday, to to build a little something with MQTT. I had fun, but making stuff OTP-compatible was tough for me. The docs are there, but they are *dense*. Still wrapping my head around a lot of things.
What are good resources for learning how to build IoT-adjacent services with Erlang/OTP?
I mainly feed of Learn You Some Erlang for Great Good (https://learnyousomeerlang.com/), The Erlang Programming Language by Joe himself, and the recently discovered Let Erlang Crash (https://cloudstreet-dev.github.io/Let-Erlang-Crash/), as well as the reference documentation on https://erlang.org/docs/.

Welcome to a new episode of delusional audacity. Today I was told I can buy it if I can bring it back.
Well, as long as it's under 80kg, and I have enough straps, I can bring back anything on my bike 😁

So I can rip two discs at once between my LibreDrive-compatible internal drive (which now groks both 4K and HD Blu-rays as well as DVDs) and my external Blu-ray (which can't be LibreDrive'd and reads only HD Blu-rays and DVDs)
But the external drive is _much flakier_ and refuses to read some discs which read fine in the internal drive.
I wonder if something's just slightly off in the mechanism; it's a slim drive where most of the guts eject along with the drawer. :)
Always make a memorable entrance
got inspired by some questions from phd students the other day; hope useful for others too! 🩷

"[Junior colleagues report] pressure from peers to use AI that they fear for their careers if they don't. If this describes you[,] then this is for you. [...]
I assume you care about the [harms of AI] I think you get these, deeply, and in addition also worry about yourself."

另一個《古蘭經》的啟示頒令，從現在起穆罕默德的妻子需要受到穆斯林的帷幕保護，以防有非其親屬的男人窺探她們。而且，因為帷幕只能在室內發揮功效，它很快就裁減成可在戶外使用的迷你版，即面紗。
有關帷幕的啟示顯然只以先知的妻子為對象，並因此賦予面紗極高的尊榮。在接下來的數十年裡，它被新崛起的伊斯蘭貴族婦女所採用，最終還被伊斯蘭基本教義派強加到所有的婦女身上。

5chの騒動について色々思った。私はレジストラやドメインというものに、ある種の希望を持っていた。インターネットを使うアプリケーションはドメインを鍵にして多くの情報を紐付ける。だからDNSを紐付けるドメインを発行するレジストラには、その下のサービスの信頼性を運命づける大きな役割がある。そこが特定の考えでアカウントの剥奪を行うというのは、いくらそれが社会的な悪とはいえ、法的な手続きなしにやってしまってもいいものだろうか？これはインターネットをささえる「ドメイン」自体の信頼に傷をつけているように見えてならない。
nostrのリレーサーバ立ててみた。ドメインを信頼のヒントとするインターネットが長年培ってきたものが、今壊れ始めている気がしたから。nostrはドメインに依存しないからね。

インターネットである意味国家権力よりも強かったのレジストラだった説 
レジストラは動いてるところ(サーバー)を止めることはできないが住所(IP)を書き換えて実質サイトを機能不全に陥れることができると...

“A recent study published in Personal Relationships provides evidence that individuals with exceptionally trusting and kind personalities do not actively seek out manipulative or cruel partners. Instead, they simply tend to be less likely to reject these types of people compared to the average person. This dynamic suggests that a strong tendency to see the good in others can sometimes reduce a person’s selectivity in romantic contexts.” (source)
5ch.netの件できになるのは、レジストラは5ch.netとbbspink.netのドメイン移管を拒否している点。つまりレジストラがドメインを乗っ取っている状態にある。こうすれば確かに「有害な」コンテンツをブロックすることができるが、はたしてそれをレジストラが行う権利があるのか疑問だ。

2017年に開始したムトーという無料マストドンホスティングサービスがあった。サーバとしてNTTのクラウドサービスを利用していたが、金曜日の夜に突如ダウン、ムトーの一部ユーザのコンテンツを理由にサーバアカウントを停止した。その影響でムトー利用者全員のマストドンが停止。たしか数週間停止してたきがする。この事件でクラウドのヤバさを思い知った。

What is the ultimate authority of a king?
It’s to decide whether people live or die, based on his personal preference,
and allowing no challenge to his whims.
That’s the power that Donald Trump holds right now.
The Trump regime’s war against Iran is illegal under U.S. law.
Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 of the Constitution gives Congress
– not the president
– the power to declare war.
The War Powers Act allows the president to send the military into “hostilities” only after Congress authorizes it
or there’s “a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.”
Neither happened here.
The United Nations Charter bans offensive warfare but allows for self-defense.
The Trump regime pretended it acted defensively when it joined Israel in killing Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and scores of schoolgirls in attacks that also led to at least four American deaths.
No matter what Trump says,
this was a war of choice,
illegal under the UN charter.
British Defense Secretary John Healey said it was
up to “the U.S. to set out the legal basis of the action that it took.”
But the Trump regime only occasionally feels the need to explain itself.
Laws have become quaint relics.
Citizens sue over the law,
judges rule on the law,
and fascists ignore the law.
The other two branches of government have largely surrendered
– the GOP-run Congress by not asserting its authority
and the Supreme Court by giving the president criminal immunity for “official acts.”
Trump has long thought himself to be above all laws,
even on matters of life and death.
He made that clear a decade ago when he said,
“I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody,
and I wouldn’t lose any voters.”
In 2020, he declared, “When somebody is the president of the United States, the authority is total.
And that’s the way it’s got to be.
It’s total.”
Obviously, he hasn’t reconsidered that view.

A well dressed sir! So shiny and silken! Only a little bit dusty!
lol the nuances I find when developing for activitypub ...
I found out #mastodon resolve the ids of the create activities , e.g. https://mastodon.ie/users/IanOB/statuses/116185301517466965/activity
but #pixelfed does not (e.g https://pixelfed.social/p/mahop/935715884483618042/activity) and these are the actual ids that come in the object.
What is more interesting is that you can actually announce create activities, and mastodon fallback to actually "boosting" but not notifying the creator as boosted. Other people would see it properly.
Anyway, #fediprofile supports boosting #pixelfed now
