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.
The countdown to the announcement of a new Python packaging project has now started…
Even without acquihires…
Hi #fediverse. We need to talk about something.
While talking to a colleague about how I recently learned most people have never sat on a cat it came up that she has never really been far even as decided to use even to want to do look more like. Like, not even once during childhood.
My hypothesis is that most people have at one point in their life really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like.

Are there any particular topics you want account recommendations for?
I can't promise anything as I can only list what exists, but would be interesting to hear what kind of accounts you would like me to post about 🙂

Jensen Huang is not a software engineer and is not a computer scientist.
He is an electrical engineer who first designed microchips and then became CEO of his own microchip company.
These guys who cannot shut up about the future of software engineering and why you should not learn anything about software engineering? They don't know shit about software engineering themselves.
And yet for some reason we keep repeating their bullshit as gospel.
(the reason is "they're rich therefore they must be very smart otherwise the American Dream would be a lie")
i don't want none of y'all who told me to post more gay shit complaining about me spamming anna's posts
Back from the office, with the #MikroTik #Chateau 5G - the coverage isn't great here, only 4G, but constantly having 50/20 mbit/sec. More than enough until they'll restore the connections.
@EnigmaRotor how's your device doing?
Hi #fediverse. We need to talk about something.
While talking to a colleague about how I recently learned most people have never sat on a crow it came up that she has never been sat on by a cat. Like, not even once during childhood.
Another colleague admitted they also have never been sat on by a cat.
My hypothesis is that most people have at one point in their life sat on by a cat.

Have you ever been sat on by a cat?

"cats brooke", who is sat on by 10,000 cats daily, is an outlier and should not be counted
Cats love when you lay on the floor with them 💕
@toxiKarsten Schmidt hi, apologies for popping into your mentions as a random stranger, but I thought of your work and libraries when I saw this and was wondering whether you’d have any advice for this person: https://tech.lgbt/@ngaylinn/116255979362275375
Thank you for your time either way!

한국인들이 만든 오픈월드 게임? 나는 안 함.
오브젝트들과 그 상호작용을 엄밀하게 정의하고 구현할 생각들부터가 없는 사람들인데 그들이 만든 오픈월드는 앨리스의 원더랜드보다 더 기괴한 상태일 것.
보나마나 기획서는 부분부분 느낌들만 쓰여 있는 날림에, 구현은 일정과 인력 부족에 쫓겨서 엉성할텐데 거기서 움직인다고? 미안, 나는 그러고 싶지 않네.

The 0.12 version on Windows will treat paths like "\Windows" and "/Windows" as absolute (to the current drive) and no longer relative.
This will allow path completion to handle implicit drive letters.

evil* idea for likes/shares/etc collections that allow interactions by direct POST. instead of POST to inbox you just POST to the collection. the collection can return 4xx if your interaction isn't accepted, and if it's missing you just "can't" interact that way. basically every interaction collection could be its own "inbox" in a way. you could still use something like AP outbox delivery to forward published activities to appropriate targets.

이거 살아있을 때 한 100개쯤 사놨어야 했는데 안 사놓은게 ㄹㅇ 천추의 한임
So I got this bot that allows multiple people to curate a list of toots that are boosted by it, to create a nice topical account to follow.
Now I only need ideas what to boost haha :)

v1.119 is live! Bot labels are here. If you run an automated account, you can now mark it as such in your account settings. The label will show up on your profile and posts so people know what's a bot and what's not.

Are there any programming languages that do whitespace-aware precedence? So 1+2 * 3+4 is 3 * 7 but 1 + 2 * 3 + 4 is 1 + 6 + 4. Or possibly 3 * 3 + 4, if you aren't bringing along any other precedence rules (besides parentheses, let's say).

Vincent got in my lap and demanded all of the snuggles, until he was so overflowing with love that he had to get onto the bed and start attacking his brother. 
He amusingly also timed his attacks to escalate along with the music I was listening to.
조성진이나 손열음을 대회에서 만나고 좌절했다는 이야기를 농담처럼 하고 웃는 것은 그것대로 재밌긴 하다. 하지만 한 걸음 뒤로 물러서서 보면... 어린, 혹은 이제 막 예술을 배우기 시작한 학생을 '능력주의'에 푹 담구어 버리는 것 같은 작금의 예술계의 행태가 예술 그 자체를 얼마나 빈곤하게 만드는지 생각해보아야 한다. 어느 한 시점에서 작다면 작고 크다면 큰 어떤 기술적 차이가 이제 막 길에 들어선 학생에게 그 길을 포기할만한 좌절을 안겨준다면 예술가를 키우는 방식 자체가 잘못된 것이고 그것은 더이상 예술이 아니다.
anyway I look forward to having a full copy of the series downloaded so I can not-watch it

A lot of people in tech want me to produce more work but get upset if I talk about what it costs me to produce work, I really hope eventually we can get a little bit better at accepting that social, cultural, psychological work is real work

Current status: reverse engineering my hacks to this test machine so I can write up proper install instructions for a slightly more proper version of it. Also, mutating the hacks in the process, because why not improve them while I'm at it?
Achievement unlocked: first NAT setup with nftables instead of iptables, for no really good reason.
