Forget IPs: using cryptography to verify bot and agent traffic in c/webdev@programming.dev
[–] refalo@programming.dev 1 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (1 children)

So when that gets blocked, they can just generate a new key. I don't see how this really stops anyone that wants to keep going.

Why, in 2025, do we still need a 3rd party app to write a REST API with Django? in c/django@programming.dev
[–] refalo@programming.dev 1 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

you don't...

I also feel like the amount of code they had to write with the CBVs was ridiculous, and it's not the easiest thing to read.

To me, this could have been done much simpler and more readable with a plain function view.

The article starts out talking about malicious bots that DoS your site, but how would a crypto signature fix that? Couldn't the client just change the signature whenever it gets blocked?

Is it possible to make a chat website with server side rendering? in c/java@programming.dev
Question: Can I create a CNAME record to point a subdomain to a webpage e.g. blog.example.com -> example.com/blog? in c/webdev@programming.dev
[–] refalo@programming.dev 2 points 5 days ago

There is, just google something like "url redirection service" and you'll find lots. Your domain/DNS provider may already offer one as well.

Not strictly within the normal way DNS works, no. A CNAME record response can only contain another domain or subdomain name. You would have to run a webserver that listens on the IP that the CNAME record eventually pointed to, in order to handle redirections to a specific URL.

Why does digital violence against LGBTI people in Thailand and Taiwan continue even after marriage equality? in c/Technology@programming.dev

digital violence?

Some Reddit users just love to disagree, new AI-powered troll-spotting algorithm finds in c/Technology@programming.dev
[–] refalo@programming.dev 2 points 1 week ago

What frustrates me is that it's almost impossible to find a platform for real-time chat for technical subjects that aren't completely dominated with this type of person filling the logs 24/7 and just making the whole experience exhausting.

ICPP – Running C++ in anywhere like a script (github.com)
 

Interpreting C++, executing the source and executable like a script.

  • Writing powerful script using C++ just as easy as Python;
  • Writing hot-loading C++ script code in running process;
  • Based on Unicorn Engine qemu virtual cpu and Clang/LLVM C++ compiler;
  • Integrated internally with Standard C++23 and Boost libraries;
  • To reuse the existing C/C++ library as an icpp module extension is extremely simple.

There is also a Qt helper module: https://github.com/vpand/icpp-qt

403 on API endpoints (lemmy.readme.io)
 

Tried to use several different API endpoints as described in the link, but they all return 403 with a cloudflare "Just a moment..." html reply. Even tried copying an existing jwt token from a working logged-in browser but the same thing still happens.

Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

curl -v --request POST \
     --url https://programming.dev/api/v3/user/login \
     --header 'accept: application/json' \
     --header 'content-type: application/json' \
     --data '{"username_or_email": "redacted", "password": "redacted"}'
...
< HTTP/2 403

Some comments not appearing? (programming.dev)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by refalo@programming.dev to c/meta@programming.dev
7 comments fedilink
 

I am noticing that some comments, which are coming from users on other verified (via /instances) federated instances, do not show up on a post. For example: https://programming.dev/post/13648105

Does not show this comment on it: https://lemmy.ml/comment/10803786

Any ideas why? I checked the modlog and the comment wasn't removed, and their post history to me does not look like someone that is likely to be banned from the instance, so I'm not sure what else it could be.

Is there a way to view the frontpage of another server, or get an RSS feed of another server's single community? (programming.dev)
 

My lemmy account is on the programming.dev instance but I use newsboat for RSS reading of some lemmy.ml communities, along with browsing the local homepage of lemmy.ml and some other instances in a regular browser. Is there a way to do either of these things from the programming.dev instance so that I can easily comment on posts without having to manually locate the same post by browsing to /c/foo@lemmy.ml on my own instance?
