What is Hackers' Pub?

FireRed and LeafGreen are not just the standard roms from 2004, they actually got the build system working and compiled a new build (with still unknown changes) more than 20 years later! Very interested in what changes they made.

Real-Time ISS Tracker Shows Off the Goods

Jay Graber just stepped down as CEO of Bluesky PBC and appointed Toni Schineider as "interim" CEO. He is a Silicon Valley old timer, listing on his resume as being Automattic's founding CEO and has been partner at a VC firm since 2005 that lists Ring (the surveillance company you pay to let them spy on your neighborhood with) and a few AI companies as highlights.

#Bluesky is lucky to have Toni as an interim CEO. He was the first CEO I ever actually enjoyed working under. He focussed on how the product is only as good as the employees are allowed to be.

If you use LLMs, this isn't a surprise.

> A prevailing concern is that generative AI encourages people to outsource their thinking to machines, which weakens understanding — known as "cognitive offloading." Through class, I realized this worry holds weight only if AI is treated like an omniscient oracle. When students are encouraged to experiment with and critique large language models (LLMs), AI becomes an on-demand study partner with benefits and drawbacks.

Hiya! Anyone in the SF Bay Area/Remote need a cool programmer for your team? I've been messing with computers for over 30 years now, I can program anything with bits, and I've got a lot of experience with all sorts of different systems, environments, and languages.
I've done mostly CI/CD/devops/SRE stuff recently, but I also do embedded software, some hardware, primary development, tooling, etc.

Nice! NAT64 in action, My IPv6-only jail can successfully talk with Github. No tayga, just the new "af-to" feature, that the "pf" firewall got in 15.0-RELEASE:

pass in quick on bastille0 inet6 from $jail_net to 64:ff9b::/96 \
af-to inet from ($ext_if) keep state

This is genuinly nice! 🙂

for dumb local mode i think i'd maybe want choice between "resync everything from scratch" and "continue with missed"

Really enjoying this album that I found recently. It is electronic music with a retro vibe and some of the talking clips sound like they are from Computer Chronicles. Very tastefully inserted in some songs.

This strange dirt on a snowbank drew my attention: what did someone dump there?
The closeup shows they are millions of Snowfleas (Hypogastrura nivicola) emerging from the depth of the snow to feed on algae, fungi, and detritus.
A sign of spring.

$dayjob is forcing me to touch systemd. I am so glad I have avoided to this point. Next step, move this system off systemd.

For example....

Emelia has already done so much great standards and auth work behind the scenes, which benefits not just atproto/atmosphere, but also ActivityPub, Solid, and other social web ecosystems. really excited about the potential for FedCM to make login flows slick and competitive with Google/Apple/Meta

人間にくっつく場合には「付ける」じゃなくて「着ける」なのかしら

but yeah in my case since dids are added manually (only a few repos are watched) i presume that resyncing everything is always cheap, so i don't know why tap won't just do it on startup
