I would use Ada or Spark in a heartbeat if there was an easy-to-use, mature cross-platform GUI library for it.

I think eventually if a federated system (or particular server) gets too popular they will just defederate from everyone else and perpetuate the same problem all over again

that is the only current accepted alternative to paying for website access, yes

You might be right, but I don't think that's a problem they're going to solve all on their own, meanwhile the rest of users will suffer.

Advice getting around YouTube sign in requirements? (or away from YouTube entirely?) by refalo in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

requires

Not for everyone everywhere apparently. It seems dependent on some secret trust algorithm of your IP/fingerprint/something.

I made the same claim before and every time, people proved me wrong.

Mozilla doubling down on ads in Firefox by refalo in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

[-] refalo@programming.dev 24 points 5 days ago

69% of the world population doesn't use ad blockers. Google made their billions from people clicking on ads.

Not only are we technical folks, only 5% of the population, not their target audience, it seems most people don't care enough about ads to ever try to stop them... at all.

ICPP – Running C++ in anywhere like a script (github.com)

Interpreting C++, executing the source and executable like a script.

Writing powerful script using C++ just as easy as Python;
Writing hot-loading C++ script code in running process;
Based on Unicorn Engine qemu virtual cpu and Clang/LLVM C++ compiler;
Integrated internally with Standard C++23 and Boost libraries;
To reuse the existing C/C++ library as an icpp module extension is extremely simple.

There is also a Qt helper module: https://github.com/vpand/icpp-qt

403 on API endpoints (lemmy.readme.io)

submitted 4 months ago by refalo@programming.dev to c/meta@programming.dev

Tried to use several different API endpoints as described in the link, but they all return 403 with a cloudflare "Just a moment..." html reply. Even tried copying an existing jwt token from a working logged-in browser but the same thing still happens.

Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

curl -v --request POST \
     --url https://programming.dev/api/v3/user/login \
     --header 'accept: application/json' \
     --header 'content-type: application/json' \
     --data '{"username_or_email": "redacted", "password": "redacted"}'
...
< HTTP/2 403

Some comments not appearing? (programming.dev)

submitted 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) by refalo@programming.dev to c/meta@programming.dev

7 comments fedilink

I am noticing that some comments, which are coming from users on other verified (via /instances) federated instances, do not show up on a post. For example: https://programming.dev/post/13648105

Does not show this comment on it: https://lemmy.ml/comment/10803786

Any ideas why? I checked the modlog and the comment wasn't removed, and their post history to me does not look like someone that is likely to be banned from the instance, so I'm not sure what else it could be.

Is there a way to view the frontpage of another server, or get an RSS feed of another server's single community? (programming.dev)

submitted 5 months ago by refalo@programming.dev to c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

My lemmy account is on the programming.dev instance but I use newsboat for RSS reading of some lemmy.ml communities, along with browsing the local homepage of lemmy.ml and some other instances in a regular browser. Is there a way to do either of these things from the programming.dev instance so that I can easily comment on posts without having to manually locate the same post by browsing to /c/foo@lemmy.ml on my own instance?
