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.

Nirgendwo ist man mehr vor sicher, nicht mal in einer Klassenarbeit in der Schule.

Im Gymnasium meiner Kinder ging es kürzlich im Fach Geografie um erneuerbare Energien. Dazu gab es dann einen dreiseitigen Aufgabenzettel mit Arbeitsmaterialien M1 bis M12.

Hier die Highlights dessen, was die Geografielehrkraft dort mittels KI zusammengezaubert hat:

Man achte auf die Jahreszahlen an der Zeitachse dieses Diagramms!

This is being driven by Claude btw, and is gonna be the next big LLM patch into SBCL when it's finally pushed for review. I expect the SBCL maintainers to thoroughly review it, likely with a lot of changes, given what Christophe has said (they have to scrutinize patches even more carefully these days) and stas approach, but I still don't feel all that great about LLM generated code landing in the only performant CL compiler (for real-time applications).

what do you call the psychological phenomenon where you hallucinate a human face onto a corporation like Apple and decide it must have goals other than profit maximization and exploitation

I came across this video which is a good reminder to us. It’s sometimes uncomfortable to ask ourselves the question if we need that new or device.

We have forgotten that we used to upgrade when our needs changed. We started to believe the big lie and here we are now. A world of YouTube influencers telling us what to buy even if we don’t need it.

Grab a coffee or tea and watch the video anytime you feel like buying new tech.

Youngest asks me if people can be deaf and blind, I was like "Yes they can. Can you imagine not being able to see or hear? They have a special sign language that's by touch."

I went looking for a video and found that in America at least, it was finger spelling until a 'pro-tactile' way of speaking ASL developed quite recently. Here Oscar says that it's "like going from dial up to broadband!":

I wonder if a similar tactile variant has happened in other sign languages?

Theory: the reason all these coders love their AI code generators so much is that it completely removes the need to *talk to other people*, while removing any chance of push back.

If you either/all of:
- are an introvert
- consider yourself a master coder; or
- have imposter syndrome

… then having AI constantly sycophantically go “yes, master, BRILLIANT!!” this has *got* to be so self-affirming and hit you right in the dopamine dispenser.

How could AI be wrong, if it tells you you are right?
