Is anyone actually going to go and check what they asked for? I feel like I understood what they asked but still don't know where to start if I were to try.

Good Computer Handbooks (programming.dev)

submitted 1 week ago by ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev to c/programming@programming.dev

I went to my local library today and noticed there's a lot of networking, cybersecurity, tcp/ip books from the early 2000s. Now, I want more modern versions of these types of handbooks. Does anyone know any good modern handbooks that deal with networking or network security standards?

Thanks :)

Car Privacy is Shit (programming.dev)

submitted 2 months ago by ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev to c/privacy@lemmy.ml

I wanted to get others' takes but it seems like the only real way to get a non-spying car is to get an older car without any sort of telemetrics. I saw a video about different car companies' security policies, well specifically the new Mental Outlaw video, and it just blew me away how even our cars aren't safe. Anyone got tips for how to anonymize their car?

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.

Learning to back up my messages (programming.dev)

submitted 6 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) in c/c_lang@programming.dev

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 12 points 6 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? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

[-] ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev 11 points 6 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)

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 :)

Best fuzzing tool (programming.dev)

submitted 9 months ago by ExperimentalGuy@programming.dev to c/hacking@lemmy.ml

2 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 :/

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

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.
