TDiblik | 2 years ago | on: A dispute over IPv4 addresses blew the lid off an effort reshape allocation

Hey, recentlly wrote a little site that could be relevant here (ip-atlas.tomasdiblik.cz), basically, I download ip2asn list and list how many IPs (4s and 6es) are not routed yet and how many are owned by which entity (and what ranges). Idk it was an interesting weekend project :D (Although, I was kinda suprised that percentage-wise, number of IPv6 and IP4 is nearly identical, makes you wonder wether companies should own HUNDREDS OF MILIONS of IPv6es)

PS: The site can get laggy on low end devices, because of the number of records (sorry :(, but I didn't want to spend too much time on this project)

Hi, why is this feature interesting/important? (Coming from [uneducated] webdeveloper with interest for systems/embedded programming)

Hi, I'm looking for an abroad (living in Czech Republic) full-time internship during the months of July and August of 2023. I will be 18 at the time of the internship. I'm looking for Rust based internship, preferably in a 5+ team. I have used Rust for hobby projects in the past (SIMPLE web servers, some embedded, tuis,...) and some simple utility projects professionally. I am using C# and React/Svelte (with TS) professionally, but I would like to try working on larger/corporate Rust projects, since I've never done that before. I would also like to try working in a in-person team, since I'm mostly programming projects remotely by myself (largest team I've been in were 4 people, including me). I'm being specific about these requirements, because I view this protentional internship as a learning opportunity, but I'm a fast learner, so I won't be dead weight :D. Also, that's the reason why I am open to any type of work involving Rust, as I see this as a learning experience.

If you'd like some kind of trial period before going in, I have 2 free weeks (15.05.2023 - 26.05.2023), where I would be able to remotely full-time contribute some code to your codebase (and prove my worth! :D).

TDiblik | 3 years ago | on: New AI classifier for indicating AI-written text

I mean it depends, is number of possible answears per prompt known? If so, can we even realistically calculate number of possible prompts? AFAIK ChatGPT answears even tho there is a gramatical mistake in your sentence, does that affect answears/is that considered a new prompt? Ok, let's say you feed all N possible answears in and make a rainbow table of hashes. Sha is basically random (not really, but lets not go there), after I generate my text using AI (which would get flagged by your detection system) and change few letters/words here and there, your whole Sha rainbow table becomes useless - right? I could be totally wrong, but I don't see Sha as a way to solve this problem, because of these complications :/

TDiblik | 3 years ago | on: Patterns.dev – Modern Web App Design Patterns

A lot of projects have been built with React and new ones start every day. React's here to stay for at least another 15 years (imo). Websites like these could be at least good as documentation of React features/patterns used in old React codebases you have to maintain in future. These assumptions lead me to believe that websites like these will age incrediblly well.

TDiblik | 3 years ago | on: Tell HN: Cloudflare Is Blocking Piped

No op, but

I believe that once you put your website behind cloudflare it's really hard, if not imposible to get content using requests. Don't know about scraping tho.

Also, I think it's better to block unknown free domains, because (public) IPs can have thousands of devices asociated with them. Once you block a domain, the "scammer" has to buy a new one.

TDiblik | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do you manage your important personal documents and other data?

Hi, kinda basic answear, but I like to use OneDrive. It's easy to setup and works everywhere I need (windows, android, linux). I have stuff like KeePass db on there and it works like a charm. As for backups, if it's something really important/secret, separate drive looks like the best solution for/to me. Nothing fancy. Althought, some people I know, use next cloud and it looks really nice, never made time to set it up.

TDiblik | 3 years ago | on: 3D map of the Czech Republic, made from 12.5cm/px imagery (2017)

I like to use mapy.cz when looking at czech republic, because they're veeery recent. Only problem I have with them, is that they are intentionally uncompatible with leaflet. They have their own api/map library and for some reason prohibit usage with other map libraries, because (as per their docs, api.mapy.cz) they believe that accessing their maps directlly is some kind of abuse? Other than that, it's a good product.

TDiblik | 3 years ago | on: A guide for getting started with self hosting

Hi, just asking around, I'm trying to self host on a basic Ubuntu server, I'll run some websites (behind nginx), databases (docker), cron jobs and other things on there. Normally, I don't really care about ddos, however since this is going to run on my home network (on it's own vlan separate from my vlan) and I have static IP, I'm kinda scared? I usually hosted my stuff on cloud with ddos protection included. What are some security precautions I can take to prevent this from happening?

TDiblik | 3 years ago | on: Gamification affects software developers: Cautionary evidence from GitHub

I feel like companies don't use Github as much as individuals. I've seen Azure DevOps used a lot, Gitlab right behind that, Bitbucket as a third option, however I've yet to work for company using Github organizations. And I don't blame them tbh, Github for organizations, has less feafures, but costs a ton more than other alternatives. Other thing i've notices is that sometimes, bigger companies have special deals with Microsoft, that for example include some Azure DevOps features for free.

TDiblik | 3 years ago | on: What's the right age to get a smartphone?

If they turn out not to be a programmer, won't using Linux hurt them? Basically every other profession/industry either use windows-only software, or have some kind of policy to use windows (microsoft intune, etc...)
