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.
Here goes Doctorow again, in that way of his:
"I suspect that the people who oversee the design of modern news sites don't care about the news at all. They don't read the news, they don't consume the news. They hate the news. They view the news as a necessary evil within a wider gambit to deploy adware, malware, pop-ups, and auto-play video."

근데 이란 전지역 여행금지는 좀 충격이긴 하다. 당장 인터넷 뒤져보면 미국 무비자 평생 안 되는 거 알고도 갈 사람은 가는 여행지였는데. 비록 내가 간 적은 없지만.
케이채님 22년에 수단 갔다오시고 1년 뒤에 여행금지 된 것도 떠오르네. 이라크 못 가서 아쉽다고 트위터에 쓰신 게 엊그제 같은데
반대로 시리아 골란고원 여행금지 풀린 것도 의외. 우크라이나 크림반도도 아직 안 풀렸고, (상황이 다르지만) 이라크 쿠르디스탄도 아직 안 풀렸는데 골란 하나만 풀린 것도. 이스라엘이 수십년 강점 중이었고 이것도 인터넷 뒤져 보면 후기가 대놓고 올라와 있어서 사실상 말만 여행금지였긴 하지만.

In the short term, this is not as dangerous as an outright ban on estrogen. If implemented and then combined with other methods of suppressing trans people, it might be far more destructive in the long term.

@PaulaticsSenator Paula Simons🇨🇦 If it were about kids, there would be a push to get media literacy in schools. Age verification is dangerous to everyone, its implementation is only a variety of privacy violations. When kids were getting into their father’s or uncle’s porn magazines, no one was searching homes looking for these stashes to protect the children. Kids will be curious, so also make good sex ed mandatory in schools.

same as substance abuse, same as homelessness - its not about helping anyone its about making the problem less visible so it doesn't seem like there's a problem. See, problem gone, it must be solved right?
On the plus side, age verification will make our kids a LOT more tech saavy trying to get around it, spoof it or fake it. Not to mention a cottage industry of of-age ppl farming their IDs out so kids can post on Tik-tok or whatever.

@jdp23Jon @Em0nM4stodonEm @effElectronic Frontier Foundation The Online Harms bill is still gestating; no sense yet of when it might emerge. On the other hand, Bill S-209, which would require proof of age 18 to access porn finished at committee today and will come back to the Senate in two weeks. (It is not govt legislation, but rather the Senate equivalent of a private member’s bill. We call them Senate Public Bills.)

プリンターのトナー / インクが高いと言われている話。
少なくとも個人向けのインクジェットプリンターのインクは高いと思うけど、レイザープリンターのトナーは安い（妥当）だと思うなぁ。
勿論、ランニングコストをゴリゴリのエンタープライズのと比較している訳ではなく。
結局、互換性のトナーも純正品再利用したり高品質トナーみたいなのは価格が 70% ぐらいに見える。

사실 난 동생 삼반수에 어머니께서 돈 낭비하셔서 석사 자체를 미룬 상태. 이공계우수인재가 될 수 있었지만 지금은 몰라. 어차피 빨리 취업 시키거나 공기업 보낼 거면 삼'반'수 자체가 무의미하고, 동생 본인도 제대로 할 생각 없었고, 결과적으로도 학벌이고 취업이고 캠퍼스 라이프고 다 현상유지였는데 엄마는 왜 허락했을까.
사실 나 자신도 삼반수 문제로 집안에 돈이 줄어들었어서 도피성 휴학도 다 끝나고 나서야 했지만(면제받은 20학번. 할 말이 예전에는 많았지만, 지금은 뒤에 적은 대로 없음), 그래도 코로나 때 포함해서 대면으로 할 건 다 해서 불만은 없음. 유일한 불만인 대학원 쪽이 계속 마음에 걸릴 뿐.

우리나라는 고위공직자 병역공개 때문에 공공기관 이사회에 (여자는 그래도 가능해도) 남자 장애인(신체적 포함, 상황에 따라 법 외도 포함)은 사실상 불가능한 환경. 마스킹 중인 고기능 자폐인이라든지는 더더욱.
공기업 임원진 유리천장 얘기는 매번 나오지만 병역공개 장애인 차별은 다들 무관심.
공공부문 고위직 전체가 해당. 가령 유능한 장애인 인재가 4급 빨리 되기 싫어(4급부터 병역공개)서 행시 대신 7, 9를 치는 경우도 있을 것.
어느 나라나 장애인 차별은 당연히 존재. 우리나라는 공공에서 대놓고 고위직을 병역공개로 박제를 해 버린다는 차이. 민간도 고위직은 타국보다 덜한 이유.

I've been thinking about adding federation health monitoring to #Fedify—not as a separate data store or custom API, but by extending the existing #OpenTelemetry integration. The idea is to expose delivery outcomes, signature verification failures, and per-remote-host error rates as OpenTelemetry metrics alongside the spans Fedify already emits. If you already have a Prometheus or Grafana setup, you'd get federation observability basically for free. Circuit breaker behavior (temporarily skipping a remote server that's been consistently unreachable) could surface as OpenTelemetry events, keeping everything in the same trace context rather than scattered across separate logs.
Does this sound useful to you? I'm curious whether people building on Fedify—or running federated servers in general—would actually reach for this, and what kinds of things you'd most want to observe. Happy to hear any thoughts.

#Mastodon turns one decade old on Monday!
@lmorchardLes Orchard wrote something that stuck with me: AI-assisted coding isn't creating a split among developers. It's revealing one that was always there, just invisible when we all worked the same way.
If you're mourning the loss of the craft itself—the texture of writing code, the satisfaction of an elegant solution—that's real, and no amount of “just adapt” addresses it. You might need to find that satisfaction somewhere else, or accept that work is going to feel different. Frankly, we've been lucky there's been a livelihood in craft up to now.

Water is life. So is intelligence.
I'm not claiming that they're right, that you are actually buying "intelligence" from them by the meter, I think that's misleading.
But also, the fact that that's the *framing* goes to show to you that they absolutely, completely want it to be, and want to sell intellectual slavery, as far as they can get it.
I'm beginning to consider a new career. Something mundane with no hype cycles or manias. Grocer would seem to suit me perfectly.

things that never happened and then the printer stood up and clapped too? because writing a kernel extension that bypasses Apple’s system integrity protection and driver kits requirements in a single prompt isn't a productivity hack it’s a miracle equivalent of Jesus walking on water 😂
