I tried accessing https://programming.dev/c/programming_languages but it tells me that the community can not be found. Is that a lemmy bug?

Self hosted Bitwarden. It has been awesome for three years, never had any problems when switching from windows to Mac and then my phone from android to iPhone.
Better than keeper and last pass. Good synchronization and more options to share passwords or notes with friends compared to Firefox password store.

I’ve been using Scala professionally for 3 years. I don’t know what I’m doing most of the time because we have a ton of implicites and monads and extension methods. I just know the general idea and can get where I want by reading types.
I’ve been creating a language for fun for nearly 6 years. I often don’t know what’s going on under the hood because it’s somewhat complex. I think this is normal for every language. You don’t have to know everything to be able to use it. You don’t have to write blog posts once a week about the language subtleties you found.

I know of which-key.nvim that help you search your key map.
There is somewhere a plugin that will belittle you for using jjj instead of 3j too, and I think that’s more like what you look for. I couldn’t find it, if anyone knows it!

I still have said button for language in my stars when going to GitHub.com/username?tab=stars
If you only have the search box you can filter using lang:name

On my own server at home, yes. Because that’s important for me to know what’s going on and not discover something by chance weeks later.

TLDR: perfctl is a crypto mining and proxy jacking malware that exploits about 20’000 common missconfigurations to install itself on Linux servers. Mostly using a 10/10 CVE on Apache RocketMQ. It is very persistent and can reinstall itself even when you have deleted all the perfctl and perfcc files. It hides itself by removing logs, network packets, and stopping all activity once you login to the machine. Monitoring cpu usage using tools (I use net data on my server) can help identify infections (100% cpu usage when « idle »).

This feels dangerously threatening. A formidable tool for scammers, stalkers and the like.
How could one defend against that? Not post anything publicly, but what about leaks?

They would have to avoid paying their exec 25M$ a year, that would be a good thing imo

They are trying to make foldable iPhones because everyone else is making a foldable phone, but have they stopped and asked themselves if people want and need a foldable?
I have yet to see a real use case for something like a Samsung Z flip, and carrying a bulky Z fold phone in my pocket only to be able to have a tablet once in a while and watch a movie is not interesting enough.

I’ve started putting the (long) forum posts I make about ArkScript on my blog, so that more people can follow the development. I must say I like the look of it, that’s also helping me getting back into blogging!

So they are allowed to pirate content actually? Even if it’s not Netflix or YouTube they take screenshots of potentially copyrighted content

From what I saw it was actually rising. A lot of Brazilian signed up when X was banned in their country and all the indicators are going up it seems. I don’t know where they got their numbers, to me it feels like they needed an excuse to cut costs.

I just wanted to have a handy description of computed goto that I could refer to, to reuse this concept without having to read thousands of line trying to make sense out of it.

The hacktoberfest used to be cool, people contributing meaningfully to projects.
Now it’s a rush to who will make the trashiest PR, adding a space here in a readme, adding an unrelated file to your repo…
Once again I won’t be participating, as a maintainer nor as a contributor (didn’t participate last year as I got more and more trashy pr until the 2022 edition when I decided it was enough).

I’m an unpaid maintainer working on my own projects, so far I got (in my opinion) a lot of external contributions on those projects but people do not stay.
I just like working on my projects for fun, and seeing the stars in GitHub people seem to like the project, I’m just the only one creating issues on it and improving the product mainly for fun.
As a maintainer it isn’t easy to get people onboard, as a contributor I have very strict needs to contribute to a project (good documentation, should be build easily with a few commands and not require a 40 years old version of an unmaintained software, a guide to know how to contribute (contributing.md)), and I’ve done my best to add that to my projects so I could onboard myself from another universe.
Oh and no discord. I had one at first (and still have for webhooks and discussing with a few people, but it’s closed and I’m pushing everyone to GitHub discussion).
This past few weeks, Python 3.13 and the possibility to disable the GIL has seen a lot of coverage and that pushed me to dig into my own language, to see how different our approaches are. So if you’re curious about the rambling of a pldev, that might be for you!
I thought you guys might enjoy it: I have a website that I push to frequently on GitHub, and some GitHub actions that update it periodically by pulling code and generating docs from it. I needed to connect to my vps often and update the website which was cumbersome. Well a solution is to use webhooks on push events and have a server listening to those events to then update said websites for me.
I had some fun trying to check if a hash (more like a transformation really) was collision free, so I wrote a quick piece code and then iterated on it so that it was usable. I might add a quick bench and graphs and try to push it even further just for fun, to explore std::future a bit more (though the shared bit set might be a problem unless you put a shared condition variable on it to allow concurrent read but block concurrent writes?)
More and more new accounts are posting spam and ads to communities (eg !technology@programming.dev), would it be an idea to block new accounts from posting to any p.d community?
I wanted people to be able to try out my language online, and it’s now possible with a vscode like interface, sending code to a docker image running the interpreter! It was easier than I thought to implement, and yes, security was a concern, but I have been able to harden the docker container as well as implement restrictions on the websocket server to avoid having users escaping the docker image and getting access to the VM it’s running on.
I currently have a server, a Dell T310 with an SSD in it and 12Gig of ram (weird config, I know I messed up but it works fine so I can’t be bothered to change that for now), with all my dockers running in it. It runs mostly fine, with Debian 11, a VPN so that I can block public ssh and allow it only on the VPN network, an nginx proxy to have services like a forgejo and a music library (ampache). However it can’t run a Minecraft server with more than a single person on it without stuttering ; so I was considering changing it maybe next year, after more than 3 years of services, for something beefier but also consuming less W/h (current consumption is 80W), and since I already have a Mac for work I was wondering how suitable a Mac Mini M1/M2 would be for a homelab? Does anyone have such a configuration and how does it work for you? Any hurdle that you should be aware of?
I’ve been thinking about it for a while now, and just realized how weird it is, after trying to explain it out loud to a friend who’s also neurodivergent. I’m curious to know if it’s a common experience with other neurodivergent individuals. My mind has three different depths: - a very conscious one, capable of conjuring images and sounds from the void, capable of manipulating at will said images, morph them, move them… I can think « words » and have them be real in my mind - a conscious but closed one: I can put words in it but without acting on them, only watching them. This one is the weirdest of all. There is a difference for me when I think about « dog » and just « look at the idea of a dog ». There are some things I don’t want to consciously think about (like things that makes me sad or depressed) so instead of thinking about them I’ll put them in this zone. They exist but it’s very different from having the words out loud in my mind, as if I was thinking inside my own mind. It’s like I’m in a museum watching thoughts behind plexiglass - the dark zone, where I put things I don’t want to think about at all, things I want to forget. It’s literally a foggy dark place made of some kind of fluid darkness with no thoughts shining in it, I have to consciously want and try to pull things from it A while ago, I read somewhere that the mere thing of being able to conjure images was « rare », like only 25% of people on earth can do it. Somehow I linked this idea to people being neurodivergent but I have no proof or source and I may just have made things up in my sleep or under the shower. TL;DR: how does your mind works? Mine is weird
I’ve finally picked up an iPhone about a month ago, and have been loving the experience. However I’m now thrown into an ad-full world again (I used to have a browser blocking many if not most ads on the android), so I’m wondering, what adblockers do you use (may it be safari extension or entirely new browser for my fellow Europeans)?

Hello! I've been working on this language for the past 5 years, ArkScript, which is: - as small as I could (language wise, 10 keywords, nothing I deemed too specific/useless) - running on a VM, compile once run anywhere, just ship your bytecode - can be used as a scripting language on its own, like python (though it's not its strength) - easy to embed, made in c++ 17 with simplicity in mind I'm currently working on the v4 (I screwed up with the semver), redoing the imports syntax, and currently cleaning the code and rewriting all the unit tests using boosr-ext/ut. I'm open to criticism, suggestions, discussions on how to enhance it, or just questions on that weird project.
I played BotW a lot, and really loved it. I feel like the beginning of the game was relatively easy compared to TotK, I died a few times trying out things, discovering the game and possibilities ; in TotK I died a lot and still do even with good gear and armour (1*-2* armors, 30-40+ damage weapons). You could say it's skill issues and I would agree with you as I am not a pro player and play games once a week maybe, however I feel like the difficulty curve is far greater in TotK. That has affected how I view the game to the point that sometimes I think I dislike it (even though the new powers are the best thing they could have added, with the verticality of the world) ; that might also have to do with the much darker ambiance of the game, which can feel frightening (to me) to the point going underground is hard. Is it just me? Should I just "git gud"?
