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.

RE: flipboard.com/@bbcnews/top-sto

This is not just about forced language assimilation, it is also providing the basis for complete cultural erasure, forced detention, and mass internment, far beyond what has already been happening in East Turkestan (Xinjiang) and Tibet

"The law also provides a legal basis to prosecute parents or guardians who may instil what it described as "detrimental" views in children which would affect ethnic harmony and it calls for "mutually embedded community environments" which some analysts believe could result in the break up of minority-heavy neighbourhoods."

The "we are 56 ethnicities all living in harmony" image that China tries to project to the world has been a lie for a long time

The White House 公式Xの任天堂ゲームを真似た戦争プロパガンダ映像を見た。末期的である。
この前も著名な映画作品を無断借用して同じような戦争プロパガンダ映像を投稿して映画関係者らから非難轟々だった。ほんとに低レベルな人間たちがホワイトハウスに住み着いている。

upcoming fediverse events

Liaizon Wakest @wakest@hackers.pub

This curated collection of global Fediverse events showcases the rapid expansion and technical diversification of the decentralized social web throughout 2026. Covering a wide range of activities from local meetups in Montreal and Berlin to large-scale international gatherings like DWeb Camp and FediDay, the schedule emphasizes core themes of digital sovereignty, protocol development, and public institution integration. Technical sessions delve into specific frameworks such as ATProto, Bonfire, and Hubzilla, while broader discussions address the evolution of W3C social web standards and the impact of regional regulations like the Digital Services Act. These gatherings facilitate critical knowledge sharing and collaboration for those building the next generation of open, interoperable communication infrastructures.

“[…] Senator Ron Wyden says that when a secret interpretation of Section 702 is eventually declassified, the American public “will be stunned” to learn what the NSA has been doing. If you’ve followed Wyden’s career, you know this is not a man prone to hyperbole — and you know his track record on these warnings is perfect.

Chrome(Chromiumもかなあ)のセキュリティアップデートが毎秋のようにでているのでVivaldiは大丈夫?と思ったりもする。一応、最新のセキュリティパッチを当てた感じにはなっているけれど、新バージョンがあるというのがなかなか出てこないときがある。

@nyeongAn Nyeong (安寧) '지적 능력'과 '지능의 원리'을 분리해서 생각해야 할 것 같습니다. 전자의 측면에서 보면, LLM과 인간의 능력을 어떤 기준에 따라 측정했을 때 그 차이가 크지 않거나 오히려 LLM이 잘하기도 하니 지능 본질(정확히는 우리가 지적 능력이라고 부르는 것)도 다르지 않다고 취급할 수 있을 것 같아요.

그런데 후자의 측면에서 보면, LLM의 지적 능력을 측정하기 전에 이뤄지는 사전학습과 파인튜닝도 지능의 영역으로 고려해야 한다고 생각해요. 인간 지능은 강화 학습으로 동작하니 LLM과는 다른 매커니즘으로 동작한다는게 자명하죠. 물론 LLM의 크기를 엄청나게 키우면 그 시점에 측정하는 지적 능력이 향상되겠지만, 여전히 사전학습과 파인튜닝에 의존한다면 그게 우리가 기대하는 '진짜 지능'의 모습은 아닐거라고 생각해요.

The South Sea Bubble ruined Isaac Newton and produced a century of regulatory caution. The $TRUMP memecoin ruined 813,000 wallets and produced a gala dinner. The distance between those two responses is the distance the casino has traveled. It moved from the margins of economic life to the center of political power, and somewhere along the way, the shame burned off completely.

Well, this kinda blew up a bit. My original post here[1] has so far seen well over a hundred boosts, a new personal best :D

It has been suggested it is time to detail a bit about the configuration of this beast. Let's start with the basics: This is a straight-up 11rc2 installation on a stock . Many people have detailed how to install it, but one useful source of information is Alex Haydock's blog[2], and of course the NetBSD release documentation. The kernel config[3] is modified slightly from the default WII in an attempt to save a bit of memory.

Building was straight forward; no difference from building on i486 or i686. Simply make and make install, with the -f Makefile.NetBSD (the NetBSD-specific makefile is included with the snac sources).

Since snac won't do TLS for inbound connections, a TLS proxy is needed. My go-to nginx isn't in the 11rc2 PPC package repository at the time of writing, so I built it from pkgsrc myself. This only took a couple of hours.. But alas, it's a bit too memory hungry for my taste, even with a minimal configuration.

Next up, I found ttp[4]. It is a very small and simple proxy server, which works fine but cannot serve static files, nor does it support TLS 1.3. It is also incapable of dropping privileges, and since I want to run it as nobody I had to find a different way to pass port 443 traffic to it.

Luckily, NetBSD has npf, a built-in firewall that can do NAT and which is fairly easy to configure (at least with the usual good documentation and examples included). Picking up port 443 and NATing it to a high port for ttp to handle worked fine - and allows me to easily move traffic from one TLS proxy to another while I experiment.

TTP wasn't without problems - but they turned out to not be entirely its fault. I kept getting connection failures and snac kept exiting for no obvious reason.

After some fiddling around, the snac author suggested[5] that I was running out of file handles, which is indeed the case. Adding ulimit -n 1024 to /etc/rc.d/snac solved that issue as well.

Then my thoughts landed on an old acquaintance of mine - pound[6]. This is a reverse proxy with good TLS support, and recent versions can even serve static files in a fairly simple way. After a couple of bug reports, lots of help by the current maintainer, and some more fiddling, I got the most recent versions to build. Once the next release drops (4.21), I'll have a go at doing my first pkgsrc port update :)

The pound configuration[7] now seems to be fairly complete, even keeping out most random scanning attacks (yes, they have already started).

학회에서 호텔값이 너무 비싸니 walk-in 거리 학교 기숙사 열어주겠다, 했는데 찾아보니 걸어서 45분 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 역시 유러피안의 거리 감각은 믿을게… 내가 안가는 학회라 다행(?)

미 백악관이 이란 최고지도자의 성명 발표를 생중계했다며 미국 언론 CNN을 비판했습니다. 트럼프 대통령은 뉴욕타임스가 ‘미국이 승리하지 않는 것처럼 보도한다’고 주장했습니다. 미국-이란 전쟁이 조기 종전하지 않고 장기전 양상으로 흐를 조짐을 보이자, 자국 언론에 책임을 돌리는 것으로 보입니다.

the Glasgow Interface Explorer project's new LLM policy:

We do not accept contributions where code was generated partly or in whole using LLMs. These tools are designed to be extractive and place an unreasonable burden on OSS maintainers, both on the level of individual pull requests and for the ecosystem as a whole. If you didn’t bother writing it, we won’t bother reading.
