I started coding in 1994 making .BAT menus for my DOS games. Used HELP.EXE to find commands I could use. Then I figured out how to modify and run GORILLA.BAS (using Q-Basic). Man, when I realized that all BASIC commands were in the OS documentation as well, that was the Red Pill! Just started to copy commands and blocks from the Gorillas game into a new program, read the doc, modify, run and learn. Btw, the first BASIC command I played with was "PLAY" (for music).
At that time I was 10 and there was no Stackoverflow, no Youtube, no tutorials, no Google... no easy path to follow down the rabbit hole.

Got a question for the linuxers.
I'm a linuxer myself (no shit) but I don't really tweak a lot. Whenever I see those awesome arch setups with tiling wm's etc (https://devrant.com/rants/1902395/ for example), I would love to set that up myself but one thing:

I should not have looked at this really interesting Chrome extension.
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/...
It tries to prevent phishing links from working by adding attributes to change the behaviour of the browser.
HOW DOES THIS WORK?
Just one simple line:
$('[target="_blank"]').attr("rel", "noopener noreferrer");
But why is this extension so bloated?
It loads the full jQuery library. For an attribute change!

This is the face of NPM right now.
So, Devon Govett (Parcel creator, hella lot of GitHub stars) offered to kind of standardize package.json, but faced nothing but angry NPM-CLI creator telling him that he’s a “rando from internet” and “why the fuck are you even speccing something, and why would anyone care”. No real professionally ethical discussion, no invitation to discuss things together with team, no even polite “no”.
Definitely the friendliest behavior possible, well done!

Hello devRant!!
Just released a small little app to share links to your PC directly from your device (Linker).
It uses a Java server running on your PC so there are no middle-men. Everything is open source and on my GitHub.
It's currently in alpha. Basically:
1. Run server on your PC (no UI ATM so run in a console) - defaults: 0.0.0.0:8090
2. Add the server IP-Port in the Android app
3. Share a link from any app through linker
4. Magic 😎
Below are the links if anyone likes the idea and wants to try it out (UI is crap I know! - I had very little time to work on it)

Took a web accessibility course somewhat recently. Here’s the list of typical accessibility problems according to those who use assistive technologies, from the most common to the least common:
1. CAPTCHA
2. Buttons and links that don’t work
3. Lacking/incorrect alt attribute
4. No input labels
5. Sudden layout shifts/content changes
6. Lacking/wrong headings
7. No keyboard access
8. Too many links
9. No skip link in header (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...)
10. Lacking/broken search
11. Complicated and/or long forms
12. No closed captions for videos
13. Bad grammar
14. Bad contrast
15. Custom checkboxes
16. Custom dropdowns
17. Font size
I never knew CAPTCHA was THE worst offender. I also never knew that font size was perhaps the least problematic aspect.11 -

To be honest, Windows Vista looks undeniably beautiful, no matter how unpopular it might was.
The user interface looked amazing. It looks decent even by today's standards. Windows XP looks more like a toy with its over-saturated colours, but Windows Vista appears elegant.
The stock wallpaper of Vista, "Aurora", is among the most beautiful out-of-the-box wallpapers I have seen.
Remember, Windows 7, arguably the most popular version of Windows, is a rebranding for a slightly altered Windows Vista Service Pack 2. Microsoft realized the reputation of the "Vista" trademark was ruined beyond repair, so they had to rebrand.

Hey, privacy guys, I've recently decided to switch to DDG, and I just came across this DDG browser addon. It promises things like
"block all the hidden trackers", which is what AdBlock can also do, "force sites to use an encrypted connection", which makes no sense since most websites using https will redirect to https automatically, "Search Privately", which is already supported by them without installing the add-on, and "Decode Privacy Policies" which is the only feature that seems to be useful. Should I use it?3 -

One of the samples specifically shows how to disable HTTPs requests for when retrieving customer info but it also states in the documentation to specifically NOT USE this disable function.

Was having problems on a VPN where my URL was constantly redirecting to https, after https was disabled, spent ages reconfiguring nginx, removing and adding nginx again with no luck. Eventually said fuck it, backed up everything of importance, destroyed the droplet and spun up a new one. Installed nginx and redone the DNS for the domain only for the same thing to happen. It was at that moment I discovered it was chrome caching the HSTS domain. I now have a long night ahead of me configuring the new droplet and restoring the backup data.

Why useImperativeHandle in React is bad?
I have component A. I have component B which is a child of A.
I have button in component A that should change how component B is displayed.
Usual approach is to set state in A, change it upon click and pass that state as flag via props to B.
But there is another approach via exposing ref to component B using forwardRef() + useImperativeHandle().
And then calling method that belongs to B from A. Like this: bRef.current.changeDisplay()

It took me two days to finally get my discord bot to a specific voice channel in my guild/server. It turns out that there are two gateways and one https gateway. The https gateway, the main gateway with a websocket connection and a voice gateway (with udp I guess).
Guess that I will be able to let my bot speak at the end of this week.
The documentation of the Discord API is not so good. It contains examples that won't work even if correctly modified. That is why I joined the Discord API guild/server yesterday and they helped me find the solution to the "I get no response from the voice gateway".
It is only getting more complicated, but I love it. Maybe I love hurting myself lol.4 -

Hey everyone!
I'm thinking of building an open-source React Native app for DevRant just as a fun project. I came across an unofficial API documentation and also a wrapper.
https://devrant-docs.github.io/
https://github.com/danillouz/...
If anyone has used these, kindly let me know your experience and which one is better.
PS: I have no intention to publish or earn money from this project. Anyone who is interested can jump into the project and help in making it better. If enough people want to use it, I can compile an apk/ipa for people to download later on. -
Looking for users to stress test our AI-powered collaborative streaming platform for gamers and developers
Up to 9 users can stream concurrently in a single channel. No external software or setup needed.
Would be super gnarly if yall could humble me with your presence and
1. login
2. create a channel
3. test it with your friends

Anyone find a Pixel 6 Pro tempered glass protector?
I can find films... Ordered this for now. https://amazon.com/dp/B09JYJ278J/...
. Is it because of the curved edges...
Or the on screen finger print scanner...
Only found thin films.... No it's how good those are... -

Fuck social media websites that don't allow you to embed their content with a simple iframe
Good example 👍 :
<iframe src="https://youtube.com/embed/..." allow="..." allowfullscreen></iframe>
Bad example 👎:
<blockquote class="reddit-card" ...><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/.../...">...</a></blockquote>
<script async src="//embed.redditmedia.com/widgets/platform.js"></script>
NO I DON'T WANT TO RUN YOUR 100kb JAVASCRIPT FILE WITH FULL PERMISSIONS ON MY WEBSITE JUST TO DISPLAY 1 SENTENCE AND 1 IMAGE. WHO KNOWS WHAT OTHER NASTY THINGS IT MIGHT LOAD IN IN THE FUTURE.
With an iframe it's at least somewhat contained.5 -
WTF is this bullshit ?
https://securityheaders.com/
Basiclly you get an "F" if you don't provide these headers.But there is NO obligation for any browser to follow these headers. And if it is an attacker with custom software there is no point at all.20 -
Has anyone else used the Decimal module in python?
And if so do you know why it returns
"AttributeError: type object 'decimal.Decimal' has no attribute 'power'"?
According to the documentation
https://docs.python.org/3/library/...
...theres a power() function.
Doing
decimal.power()
Decimal.power()
power(x, y)
No matter how I call it, it always returns an error indicating power() doesn't exist and I'm scratching my head.4 -

Emailed them at 11:15. No reply. So I doubt I'll hear anything until Monday at the earliest -
Just a reminder: it doesn’t matter how it’s advertised. They all have logs.

Fucking mql5 - code gives no errors, it should create a file but it does not. Why is that?

I have searched all my computer, there is no such file.9 -
Bruh how are you meant to link Chromium snapshot id's to Chromium release versions without https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/ anymore?!?!!?!?!
There's literally not commit data or anything on this page:
https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/...
And the new site has NO snapshot linking capabilities?!

vue errors impossible to know where it caused
https://pasteboard.co/E5ynqes5IISK....
when I click on vue.js?3de6:634
it just gives some inside file. No stack trace to my file. Are you thinking what you are creating? Or are you making it to make it more difficult to debug vue creators?

Just how the hell did we get here!? The culture war has no place in our community. People push their code under anon pseudonyms. When even.the normies are getting scared, you know we're in a very dark place.
