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.
When looked at the right way, init systems like systemd, launchd, etc are build systems; instead of building a piece of software, they build a working environment. This is more than just a vague metaphor: most reasonable init systems will have a way of expressing dependencies, expected outputs, etc.
What *is* legitimately different is that init systems keep running after the artifact is built, and have rules that dynamically fire; EG: a rule that fires when network configurations change, a rule that fires every hour, etc. In a sense, this means that init systems are build systems that are always in watch mode, and support dynamic rules.
It would be interesting to transfer these rules across our analogy, and experiment with a build-style system that supports dynamic watch rules. Most fancy build systems already support an ad-hoc form of this via hot-reloading, but a principled version seems very useful!

AI 사진 크리틱을 하면서 가장 큰 도움은, 내가 뭘 찍고 싶어했는지를 알려준다는 점이었다. 이런저런 고정관념과 미련... 때문에 우겨넣고 있던 부분들을 걷어내라고 알려주더라. 사진가들의 계보가 그 방법이었다.

Instagram removed end‑to‑end encrypted chats on May 8, 2026 🔓.
Without E2EE, private messages could become accessible for data analysis or AI training, raising serious privacy and user‑trust concerns 🤔.

I'd love to have a chat with the person at Apple who looked at the Apple Music layout for Top Results and went "yes. YES. THAT'S IT"
Not a day goes by I don't find a reason to forward a friend going through a crisis something that

One of the ways people are noticing if software projects are using AI agents is if they magically add 10,000 lines of code because that’s not something a sane human does to their project one day.

Of course eventually, chickens will come home to roost. Amazon has been laying off tens of thousands of engineers over the last few years, sometimes claiming to be replacing them with "AI".
The result is brain drain, and thus outages big and small:
https://www.theregister.com/2025/10/20/aws_outage_amazon_brain_drain_corey_quinn/
> A Resume.org survey of 1,000 hiring managers found that 59% say they emphasize AI’s role in layoffs because it “is viewed more favorably by stakeholders than saying layoffs or hiring freezes are driven by financial constraints.”

What VPN solutions do people like for iOS? I've never tried using one on my phone before, but it's mostly because I've been intimidated about how to do so.
In every chatbot related blogposts, replace "developing software" with "woodcraft" and "prompting" with "ordering from Amazon".
Try it, seriously!
— Ordering from Amazon is the future of woodcraft. It’s faster, cheaper. Don’t be left behind.
— I tried it but the quality was really poor.
— That’s because you are bad at ordering from Amazon. It’s a skill you should practice.

#JacketPotato has a new spot for sunny days.
Every Sunday I’m going to post a Sunday Build – a complete app you can build from scratch. Each one includes a full build tutorial with video and finished source code, so follow along and ship something! (And if you don’t want a weekly stream of app ideas, mute #SundayBuild.)

Some work for my next game that I wasn't looking forward to: upgrading the automap with a scrollable viewing area to support bigger levels. I actually didn't need to add a whole lot of code, though. It was mostly updating a bunch of finicky math to work for a more general case.
ML1 was locked to 16x16 maps, but I can make them much bigger now. 🤔

예전에 서버에 꽂아둔 990 pro SSD가 돌연 문제가 생겨서 중고 SSD 급히 꽂아 어떻게 살린 기분나쁜 기억이 있는데
RMA 받았더니 9100 Pro로 변신해서 와서 기분 좋아짐. 어제 홈서버 작업하면서 꽂았다.
이번엔 용서해준다 삼성(?)
