Have you ever owned/had the exclusive use of a black and white TV set?
Let's say you wanted to block a bunch of rogue web crawlers run by slop companies from your website. What are some tricks you'd apply? I already have a list of AS numbers that send garbage traffic around and I'm also looking at non-standard user agents.
Should I have multiple accounts for various things on here or just the one stream of nonsense? I’m trying to post here more often but I don’t always post my wargaming stuff or music/TV stuff here and instead focus on technical stuff.
Does anyone have *any* of those. online "learn programming" type things they like and would actually recommend? I've not been a professional software developer for well over a decade, and the last code I wrote other than my own personal stuff was mostly just fixing up other people's HTML/CSS/JS, not starting from scratch. Hoping for something that doesn't shove AI slop at me, and ideally something for either Ruby or PHP. I've tried boot.dev -- it's fun, but Python and AI slop in places now.
Taking a break from social media for a bit.
Reply to this with a domain name or band name you've thought up, written down and never done anything with. I'll go first. I bought zebrafoot.com after seeing it on a Law and Order episode. I will commit to putting up a picture of a Zebra Foot there and a link to the posts for the best names I see. Please repost good ones! #zebrafoot
