Umm
refalo@programming.devto Web Development@programming.dev•Forget IPs: using cryptography to verify bot and agent traffic1·22 days agoOk so effectively then this basically shifts the work from blocking IPs to blocking domains. It might slow down some smaller players, but I imagine anyone with a decent amount of money can afford an insane number of domains.

refalo@programming.devto Web Development@programming.dev•Forget IPs: using cryptography to verify bot and agent traffic2·25 days agoThe article starts out talking about malicious bots that DoS your site, but how would a crypto signature fix that? Couldn’t the client just change the signature whenever it gets blocked?
not MS-DOS Edit
sad.
refalo@programming.devto Web Development@programming.dev•Question: Can I create a CNAME record to point a subdomain to a webpage e.g. blog.example.com -> example.com/blog?2·28 days agoThere is, just google something like “url redirection service” and you’ll find lots. Your domain/DNS provider may already offer one as well.
refalo@programming.devto Web Development@programming.dev•Question: Can I create a CNAME record to point a subdomain to a webpage e.g. blog.example.com -> example.com/blog?5·29 days agoNot strictly within the normal way DNS works, no. A CNAME record response can only contain another domain or subdomain name. You would have to run a webserver that listens on the IP that the CNAME record eventually pointed to, in order to handle redirections to a specific URL.

refalo@programming.devto Rust@programming.dev•Qt Group unveils expansion plans for technology-agnostic Qt ecosystem6·1 month agopotentially escaping the notion that because Qt is C++, it is not as safe to use.
How does this even potentially escape the notion? Qt is still C++, and still unsafe, no matter what you use for the rest of your application. And the fact that Widgets is being left out in the cold doesn’t sit well with me either.
They still won’t even say what these “bridges” are, other than it “does not necessarily replace existing bindings”. Does that mean it’s still yet another binding?
What would have been really nice IMO are some plain C bindings, for both widgets and QML.
They probably used AI to help write it.
