Chrome Extension to keep track of likes/dislikes for every url Posted: 06 Apr 2021 03:00 PM PDT I'm building a chrome extension to essentially replicate the youtube like/dislike widget for any url. Therefore, I'm going to need a backend database to keep track of global likes/dislikes for any url. I don't want users to have to sign in but I also want to limit 1 like/dislike per user per url. I understand that there will always be a way to abuse this system. However, I want to make it as difficult to like a url twice as it is to create two accounts on youtube to do the same thing. I think one way to do this is to limit 1 like/dislike per url per IP address. Is this a good approach? Any better ideas? [link] [comments] |

Correct HTTP status for distributed systems Posted: 06 Apr 2021 08:10 PM PDT I'm having a professional disagreement about where to define error boundaries for a REST API. Here's the set-up: Our API sits between the client and another API. Almost in proxy fashion, the client gives us certain parameters and we then construct an appropriate API call, which then gets sent off to any one of hundreds of nodes. My position is that if our API cannot find a node which can be used then it should return some flavor of 50x status. My reasoning is that our API has failed to fulfill an evidently well-formed request, and it should explicitly flag that as an error. My colleague's position is that our API should always return 20x unless it actually crashed. Their reasoning is that all HTTP and database transactions were successful, there simply was nothing to return and that should not be flagged as an error. We're equally adamant and can each present situations where our own logic makes sense. The issue seems to come down to two things:
In a distributed system like ours, I consider upstream nodes a resource just like I do CPU cycles or memory, and view the entire lifecycle of the transaction, including those phases executed on other machines, as subject to the API's "zone of responsibility." But, I've been rebuffed on both of these: only the API server's own resources should factor in to the response code, and the zone of responsibility stops at the CGI. Is one of us right? Are we both idiots? Are we in some twilight zone that the HTTP/1.1 spec didn't account for? [link] [comments] |
Is Go a free programming language? Posted: 06 Apr 2021 06:11 AM PDT By "free" I mean the c++ kind of free - nobody owns the standard, and the language itself is nothing more than an international standard in the first place. So far I haven't found a definitive answer to this question. It would seem that there is no Golang specification (only the documentation - on google's website), and there is a single "main" compiler that the developers of the language only care about. Having a programming language that can be supported by only ONE compiler that everybody is forced to use is the kind of Google boolshit I want to avoid. [link] [comments] |

Should the API model mirror the database model? Posted: 06 Apr 2021 03:28 PM PDT Let's say I have an API for RPG characters. The user will see something like this:
In the database, class and race are actually foreign keys. Maybe I store integer IDs, or maybe primary keys are just varchars containing the name. Either way, the users see a web form with a drop down that lets them select from a list of options. Is it OK to hide that implementation detail in the API? For instance, when a user GETs a character object, it might return something like this: as opposed to this: or this: or even this: And similarly for create and update operations. Are there any opinions on the best way to handle this, or any suggestions on how to approach it? [link] [comments] |

Is there a tool to help review prs? Posted: 06 Apr 2021 11:34 AM PDT I'm looking for a tool that will help find common issues in prs (misspelled words, formatting, etc). Are there any tools like this? If not, anyone want to help me create one? I hate reviewing prs, so I'd like to be able to spot the common issues easily so I can focus on the important things.

random.org got an update with a timestamp Posted: 06 Apr 2021 08:45 PM PDT i was using https://github.com/azate to rig random.org number generator they make it easy by adding the extension. setting your number or numbers and you could left click to have the number gen be random and right click at any time to have the preset of numbers. however random added a timestamp to their number gen. any way anyone know how to add a timestamp to the above extension?

Any ideas as to how I could write something to autoskip Spotify podcast ads? Posted: 06 Apr 2021 08:01 PM PDT The problem: Spotify injects ads before and throughout podcasts, even if you are a premium user. I want to write something that will detect an ad is injected in the middle of the Spotify podcast, and basically drag to the end of the ad on the little progress circle thing. All users, regardless of whether they pay for Spotify or are a free user, can skip through ads by doing this. But its kind of ridiculous that you even have to if you pay for Spotify already. I was thinking of using AutoHotkey, but was wondering if anyone reading this knows if there is a better tool for this job. And I'd need it to work in the background, which I'm not sure AHK could do. I know it could open Spotify for me on my screen and do this, but that would be a nuisance and the whole point of my idea is to make listening to podcasts not a frustrating experience. For detecting the ad, on the client I was thinking of checking for a short duration, like under 180 seconds. That would indicate its an ad. I've never seen a podcast episode that tiny. I imagine on website its gonna be way way easier to detect the ad just by pouring over the HTML Ideally, the solution would work on the Spotify desktop client so the user isn't forced to use the website for this fix. But if someone has an idea for how to circumvent these horrible ads on the website, feel free to share. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Apr 2021 07:36 PM PDT I'm trying to make sure my understanding of callbacks is correct. I was reading about reasons to use queues on a Stackify page and came across this blurb:
This is what a callback can do, right? Essentially you'd want to pass some callback address or function along with the transaction and once it completes on whatever final system it's intended for that system can "call back" to wherever is needed and give a success or fail (or anything else) status.

Fastest Way to Replace Values Inside Brackets in a Pre-Written Template Text File? Posted: 06 Apr 2021 06:38 PM PDT I have a long .txt file with default pre-written text in it, such as "The weather temperature today is [weathertoday], while the weather temperature tomorrow will be [weathertomorrow]" where the values of weathertoday and weathertomorrow are simply values taken from a weather website that shows the temperature. What I've been doing is going on the weather website and manually copy and pasting the values in, but this has gotten really tiring and repetitive lately, and I'm hoping someone could point me in the right direction as to what I should look into to have this simply task automated.

Posted: 06 Apr 2021 04:44 PM PDT Hi everyone, sorry for the newbie question I'm doing a website of surveys and I have 2 databases, one for the user which allows the user ID and other things and another of answers. These two are related because in the second one I want to know whose the answer is with his ID. My question is how can I make the database automatically add the data to both databases? I mean when a user registers himself and answer the questions appears in the databases. Thank you very much for your time! [link] [comments] |
¿Can you transform an audio file into a video file? Posted: 06 Apr 2021 08:53 AM PDT I´m not a programmer and I want to picture the EM signal that comes from a song/audio. Similarly to the Windows music player visualization. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Apr 2021 04:04 PM PDT Disclaimer : I know nothing about programming Hey guys, I had a question about your average websites (big and small) and how they record last login IP. I know your typical server logs record every visit to a site , but I know sites probably connect your specific user account to the IP address. Is this typically done for the sign up IP , every single different IP address that you sign in from; or is it usually just the last one you log in which overwrites the previous in some database. I've googled people talking about different codes(?) like last_login_IP and current_login_IP etc and im not sure what it means. Could a site like Reddit be able to tell me every IP "pubh12" was associated with for years. Or just the last? Any help with understanding this would be awesome! Thanks! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Apr 2021 03:54 PM PDT I tried my best to describe this in the title, but it may still be confusing. I am working on a project in R, in an RMarkdown file. When defining a custom function, for which I will be using an existing variable as an input, is it good practice to use the variable name when defining the function? If "VarA" is a variable in my project, should I do something along the lines of CustomFun <- function(VarA){ x <- VarA*2 return(x) } If I am only going to use it as follows: CustomFun(VarA) ? Thank you! [link] [comments] |

Search OpenLibrary API by Book Title Instead of ISBN or other IDs? Posted: 06 Apr 2021 03:05 PM PDT Is anyone familiar with the OpenLibrary API that can tell me if there is a way to search for books by any other way than by ISBN, LCCNs, OCLC numbers or OLIDs (using the "generic Books" API) ? While reading through the docs, I only find ways to search by these IDs, but what if none of these IDs are known and you want to display by the book's title? I am fairly new to using APIs and so I am still trying to learn how to read the docs. I know they also have a search API that seems to allow searching by book title, but I don't think this is exactly what I'm looking for. TIA. [link] [comments] |
Human silhouette highlighting via live android camera feed? Posted: 06 Apr 2021 01:27 PM PDT Hello there, first post here so sorry if it is a weird question. TL;DR: is it possible to color in human silhouettes similar to what is presented in this image here in an Android app via live camera feed, and if yes, any pointers towards resources? Thank you!

Posted: 06 Apr 2021 07:15 AM PDT I want to make a simple application that downloads some data in JSON format, to my computer or a cloud server like Dropbox. I, or someone on a different computer, can download or look at the data, go through it, and modify it in some way. When they are finished, I can look at the modified data on my end too. Is the simplest way to pull this off to have us both modifying some central data repository, say in Dropbox, or is there some simple method that allows the remote user to "push" their edits back to my computer, so the edits just appear in the file on my filesystem? I mean, apart from them just emailing a file to me, can I give them the ability to write to my filesystem, somehow? Thanks very much. [link] [comments] |
What is the difference between CSS and SCSS? Posted: 06 Apr 2021 10:31 AM PDT I know CSS relatively well, but I am still very confused about Sass. How is SCSS different from CSS and if I would use SCSS instead of CSS would it work the same? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 05 Apr 2021 11:47 PM PDT Like GDC is for game design, and Unity Unite is specifically for Unity. Not necessary talking about learning some new tech, but learning about it. Also, maybe it's a person, like Uncle Bob, and not an event. [link] [comments] |
