To anyone reading, im leaving. The moderation on this place sucks.
I cant tell someone to add authentication to their app I cant tell anyone to self reflect
But people are allowed to bully others out of learning? yeah bye
What projects are you working on?
just work :(
Is there any known collaborative efforts? (i.e popular projects)
the one at work :(
What are some good communities?
my workplace :(
Thinking about project involving programmable led strips but I have to finish my training cycle planning app first.
welcome!
I am currently working on https://spaidyslabs.com/ it’s a project of my friend. feel free to join or collaborate! :D
( oh and if you find any vulnerabilities which there are a lot please report it don’t exploit it :) )
Google? Hard pass.
we have been trying to move away from google but don’t have any other robust solution to prevent spam that’s why we are stuck with Google :(
I would say to make username/password registration invite only until you figure out how to stop spammers
Removed for telling them to implement invite only username/password authentication, tf??
pASSword - Profanity filter caught you. Sorry.
Why is there even a profanity filter? I understand it for slurs but who cares if somebody says a swear word?
We had a bunch of new accounts created that immediately hurled abuse at another user. It got us briefly defederated from a few instances. We are using the profanity filter to raise those kinds of post to our attention so we can deal with them rapidly.
Once we are sure the new account is behaving itself, the filter is turned off. We don’t care if you swear, as long as it’s in line with the code of conduct.
We still have the Scunthorpe problem in 2026?
We do, the library I am using isn’t the best. If you know of a good rust lib for profanity checking, feel free to share.
But we are kinda okay with it being a bit over-eager. It only applies to new accounts, and I am actively reverting the messages if its an error. Its scaling okay for now.
Just wasnt fast enough in this case.
The joke is that you’re doing cybersecurity, and you cannot figure out how to secure your platform without using Google to manage authentication, despite the massive amount of resources to do exactly that.
People who are serious about cybersecurity would never use Gmail. Perhaps you should stay out of cybersecurity until you know what you’re doing.
could you share some resources please?
You’re right but you’re rude
I’m rude, but they’re dangerous—and that’s worse.
They’re not dangerous, you lack nuance. That’s worse.
You use the word “nuance,” and you simp for insecure cybersecurity products because someone was “rude.”
I’m cracking up. Please participate in their project. You will fit right in.
Not programming per se, but I’ve been working on some electronics projects. If you check my profile, there’s two PCB designs that I’ve posted. They’re fairly simple, but I’m working on a larger project that I should be posting relatively soon. Currently I’m just waiting on a shipment of parts, because I didn’t realize I would need XNOR gates.
I see, I’m not super familiar. My extent of PCB design is a custom slimevr board for myself.
The solderable 16 byte ROM design is interesting, I could maybe see it being in some kind of debugger?
Oh, that’s cool. I hadn’t heard of slimevr before.
My use case for the diode ROM board is to take 4 binary input bits (16 possible combinations) and translate them into what segments of a 7-segment LED display should be lit or unlit, in order to display the corresponding hexadecimal digit (0-9, A-F). Like so:
It could be used for any other case where you need to convert a 4-bit input into 16 possible 8-bit outputs. In theory you could use them in multiples for more address space, but I forgot to include an enable pin on the board to allow for that. Something to add to the next version.
Not sure if its this sub, this instance or what. but im out. bad moderation.
