Re:How Britain got its first internet connection (2018) on Thursday January 09, 2025 @04:01PM (#42649765)
It says it was newer published (before now), so would not 2025 be correct?
Because reasons i don't remember, I ended up doing all my scraping through Firefox (i think it was easier to make PDFs?). Is there something like this that works for running (non-headless) Firefox?
Re:Deploy a Hugo Website to Cloudflare on Saturday October 19, 2024 @03:59PM (#41890315)
A bit weird to suggest NameCheap for domains when Cloudflare also sells domains, and spesifically only charge you the registrar fee for the domain.
Re:Show HN: Web Scraping with Your Web Browser: Why Not? on Thursday October 03, 2024 @06:13AM (#41729145)
I understand that "with/in your web browser" implies a extention or simmilar, but i have good experience using Selenium and Python to scrape websites. Some sites are trickier than others, and when you are instrumenting a browser it easily triggers bot prevention, but you are also able to easily scrape pages that build the DOM using JS and simmilar. I have considered, but not looked into compiling my own Firefox to disable i.e. navigator.webdriver, but it feels a bit to much work.

Re:Reverse engineering ESP32 Wi-Fi driver: the road ahead on Saturday May 25, 2024 @12:03PM (#40475815)
Does this way to write an implementation have a name?
Re:Reverse engineering ESP32 Wi-Fi driver: the road ahead on Saturday May 25, 2024 @12:02PM (#40475808)
As other comments have mentioned - they do not want to decompile the source, they want a clean-room-implementation.
Re:120cm to inches on Friday May 17, 2024 @03:39PM (#40393502)
Is the answer not supposed to be ~47.24 inches?
It is a good explanation of what is happening. However, I think that many of not most Python linters will warn you about this. It is perfectly valid, and something you might actually want, so it should not throw an error.
Could this solution be extended with a openssl pipe to offer encryption?
