what's the best python libraries for beginners to download and learn with? by ExperimentalGuy in c/programming@programming.dev

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 2 points 1 day ago

I heard there are quantum computing libraries in Python if that interests you!

If I were you I'd browse PyPi for any packages that look cool.

Anyone here heard of Wikifunctions, and if so what do you think? by ExperimentalGuy in c/programming@programming.dev

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 2 points 1 day ago

I'm not exactly sure what to think about it, but I do like how there's specific things that have their implementation in code right there. I did only look at the site for like a minute, so take that with a grain of salt.

Linux Server OSes? (programming.dev)

I've seen a lot of different enterprise and personal use distros for servers, but what do you guys use?

I'm planning on using Debian but was wondering if there are any other good free options to consider.

Considering that Pokemon are stored as computer files, tools like PKHeX probably exist in the Pokemon world too by ExperimentalGuy in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

Learning to back up my messages (programming.dev)

submitted 3 months ago by ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev to c/android@lemmy.world

8 comments fedilink

I've been looking around to find a good, privacy respecting way to sync my messages between phones. I decided I'm going to use SyncThing so I don't have to mess around with a server. The only problem with this is that I haven't been able to find any apps that work on modern Android that routinely backup and import messages from a file/folder into the messages database. Does anyone know any app that might do this?

C can be memory-safe (2023) by ExperimentalGuy in c/c_lang@programming.dev

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 12 points 3 months ago

The core principle of computer-science is that we need to live with legacy, not abandon it.

The problem isn't a principle of a computer science, but one of just safety. Also, who said this is a principle of computer science?

Owners of a domain, which domain registrar did you choose and why? by ExperimentalGuy in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 11 points 3 months ago

Namecheap bc I typed where to buy cheap domains and that was the first one.

I've got a domain but whats next? (programming.dev)

submitted 3 months ago by ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev to c/web_hosting@programming.dev

I recently purchased a domain for myself as a why-the-fuck-not purchase and I need some ideas for what to put on there. Some ideas so far include: Small Blog Personal S/FTP server to sync back to Minecraft server

Does anyone have other ideas? Thanks :)

What are you working on this week? (Mar. 2, 2024) by ExperimentalGuy in c/rust@programming.dev

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 9 points 4 months ago

I'm working on a distributed network scanner. Mostly for my own understanding of networking because there's always something new to learn in this space

So rude for not dropping the link for that duck in the post tsk tsk tsk

Best fuzzing tool (programming.dev)

submitted 6 months ago by ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev to c/hacking@lemmy.ml

0 comments fedilink

I'm trying to find a good fuzzing tool for testing my web applications and was wondering what people would recommend. I'm trying to find one that is open source, free, and doesn't use proprietary stuff. It seems like Google's OSSFuzz is the closest option to what I'm looking for, but it uses Google cloud :/

Mercedes-Benz is using Qt framework to build new operating system for its cars by ExperimentalGuy in c/programming@programming.dev

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 9 points 7 months ago

I would extend that and just say all first party operating systems are shitty

its even more outdated by ExperimentalGuy in c/memes@lemmy.ml

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 10 points 10 months ago

It's mostly not used in the US afaik. I've seen it in a lot of places in Europe and the middle east

Coming to you soon... by ExperimentalGuy in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 13 points 10 months ago

Im honestly considering getting a flip phone at this point it's kind of ridiculous.

Appreciation post for Liftoff not collecting user data or injecting ads. by ExperimentalGuy in c/liftoff@lemmy.world

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 25 points 11 months ago

I mean a lot of the people on here seem a bit more on the technical side, so it'd make sense imo

Runtime Profiling in Rust (programming.dev)

I've been trying to find something that allows me to see performance visualizations in my rust programs, but I haven't found any so far. I'm looking for something that's like SnakeViz in Python, but for Rust. If there's a better way to get about doing this, I'm all ears.
