How do games know you're using a memory editor?

I found this website called 'Windows 96' from Hacker News. It is a 'Web OS' that looks similar to Windows 95 or Windows 98. It looks pretty cool, and I think you should try it!

Here is a screenshot:

Need a new portfolio website to be approved by apple (yea I know...) so decided to build one based on me because I'm so vain. Made a pretty little terminal window that looks like my tmux theme because I can. Complete with stupid commands.

Best way of spending 3 hours 😂

Feel free to play with it! https://pedantic-bartik-8fb191.netlify.app/...

ps: the input selection is a bit buggy (bad UX) click the cursor if it doesn't type

Well, here it is finally, a first preview of the Covey Web UI.

It's powered by CoreUI (the only easy to use admin thing I could find).

If you want to look at the code, be warned: I don't do frontend...

Working on a funny/new api/service (will be a public one) and I'm only now realizing how important good security is but especially:

The amount of time that goes into securing an api/application is too goddamn high, I'm spending about 90 percent of my time on writing security checks 😅

Very much fun but the damn.

So after google claimed back .dev in chrome some time ago it is now clear why they did it, first https://web.dev which seems to be planned as a useful resource, but then also https://get.dev

I have a suggestion for you,

Please set up an Unbound resolver so people does not have to depend on big actors like Google, Cloudflare or quad9.

My first times today:
First time a droplet on Digital Ocean.
First time Nginx.
First time trying to separate mail and website servers.
First time using UFW firewall.
First time Ubuntu webserver.
First try all alone configuration of my webserver.
First time installing all the stuff I need on my own, like MySQL, PHP and so on.
First time only SSH access from the beginning.
First time deployment from bitbucket.

Do you have any advise what I should think about. Or what software I will need. Or what I should think about.

I'd love to get some feedback on my new insta page: http://instagram.com/dailycsscode

I will post some css tips especially for beginners but there will also be useful stuff for adavanced people

Ma chéries!
What job sites do you recommend?
I want to leave this nightmare behind.

Dear DevRanters,

I have a question: Where do you get your Tech/Developer news from?

Thank you.

If any iOS developers are wanting a good repo to follow, I believe HeadGazeLib is about to take off.

There's been a few articles about how eBay is using head tracking to allow for hands free shopping (huge for accessibility!) If the rumors are true, then Apple should be announcing many more devices that support Facial Recognition (like the iPhone X). If they do, then there will a huge surge in games/apps that tap into that technology.

HeadGazeLib makes it super easy to incorporate Head Tracking in your apps, so I think with all the publicity, it will quickly rise to the #1 head tracking "add-on".

Share your most useful terminal aliases and functions.

alias gs='git status'
alias gcm='git commit -m'
alias push='git push'
alias pull='git pull'
alias hosts='sudo nano /etc/hosts'
alias glog='git log --graph --oneline --decorate -n 10 --color'
alias mykey='cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | xclip -sel clip'

function mkcd () {
mkdir -p -- "$1" && cd -P -- "$1"
}

As well as one for each major project (lets say 1+ weeks of dev time) to immediately cd to it from anywhere. How about you guys?

Always looking to improve my terminal commands, so am curious what everyone else uses for shortcuts.

Time to move my mailserver!
I am having an inner struggle about what distro/OS to use:

Debian
CentOS
Ubuntu
FreeBSD
OpenBSD

What should I use? Why?

To the freelancers.

Do you offer web-hosting? What are your experiences? Where do you rent servers? What do you charge?

Thanks in advance

I'm in love. ❤️

A handy linux tutorial for whom cares!

Does anybody know an awesome list of services relevant to (.NET) developers? Preferably self hosted.

The section in kickballs list is too short I think.

A simple object mapper for CosmosDB SQL API

Cosmonaut is an object mapper that enables .NET developers to work with a CosmosDB using .NET objects. It eliminates the need for most of the data-access code that developers usually need to write. [more details]

Need help with creating an awesome-list for devRant!
If you have any devRant-related projects, please add them! [more details]

Have been trying to setup Netdata as a monitoring system for a while now and finally got it working!

Instead of the built-in webhooks I just did a curl to a url containing a php page/file which error logs the status and description (just for testing).

It took me way too long to get it to work but BAM.
Immediately made a new cpu load rule (one minute high load):
The satisfaction of getting an error message in the php logs containing my custom rule as warning and a minute later as critical 😍

Netdata ❤

Last night I nearly finished my portfolio site. I was working on the perfect framework and workflow like forever. But in the end I accomplished a pretty pleasing solutions. For the back-end I choose Laravel with it's built in rest-api, the front-end is managed by Vue. I'm also proud of my assets-management which is handled by Gulp + Webpack (Laravel Mix). But here I decided to run Gulp on images, fonts and CSS and let Webpack bundle the JavaScript.

And what really crawls my balls is that I can write Sass and Jade, even use partials and organized the shit out of this website, and let Gulp just vomit some minified HTML and CSS on the other end.

Man that feels so good.

Does anyone know good tools to use for designing a site? Like I'm good a developing but I suck when it comes to designing :/

npm install -g create-react-app
create-react-app hello-world
du -sh ./hello-world/node_modules

Just found this awesome repo https://github.com/EnterpriseQualit... it's so perfect.

DevRant-API-Docs Site Update:
Started with the back-end for the Q&A yesterday.

You can see it here:
https://github.com/devRant-Docs/...

So I'm moving to a new/bigger place with faster Internet soon so I think it's time to rebuild my current home/remote server setup.

I want to setup the following things:
- vps for server monitoring (open source pushover alternative + netdata)
- Zero tier network for connecting all my servers to the same network
- pihole/pivpn (or the Angristan vpn installer, look it up :)
- second blocking thingy next to pihole to make sure that I literally can't access google/fb etc anymore, even if I really needed/wanted to
- bunch of general servers.

Any ideas?

Wan't your own personal devBanner?
Now you can have one!

We're building a powerful banner generator over here: https://devrant.com/collabs/...
The first version is up and running, still basic tho.

You can generate your own by calling this URL:
https://devrant.nuernberger.kim/api...

You'll have to replace "Kimmax" with your devrant name and the value after subtext with the extra text.

A cool domain is already on it's way!

We'll be working on a frontend and a ton of extra features to make this banner even more awesome.
If you got any nice ideas add them to the issue tracker here: https://github.com/cozyplanes/...

Have fun!

Finally finished both books and got some inspiration on how i wanna code in the future
