I Built a Script That Finds Hidden APIs on Any Website (Here's the Code)

Most websites have hidden JSON APIs that return cleaner data than their HTML pages. I built a simple Node.js script that discovers them automatically. The Problem Traditional web scraping is fragile: CSS selectors break when sites redesign HTML parsing is slow and error-prone Anti-bot systems block headless browsers But many sites expose internal JSON APIs that are faster, more sta...

How to Add OG Images to Your Website (Manual vs. Automated)

Every time you share a link on Twitter, Slack, Discord, or LinkedIn, the platform fetches your page's meta tags to build a preview card. The og:image tag controls what image shows up. If you don't set one, you get either nothing or whatever the crawler decides to grab from your page. Usually it picks your logo at 50x50 pixels. Looks awful. I've spent way too long manually creating OG images in Fi...

Every Voice Keyboard I Tried Was Running More Than Transcription. So I Built One That Doesn't.

I dictate a lot. Messages to family, notes to myself, things I'd rather say than type. At some point I got curious about what was actually happening when I used a voice keyboard app. Most of them bundle analytics SDKs, crash reporters, attribution libraries. Services that have nothing to do with transcription but run in the background every time you open the keyboard. Crash reports can include fr...

Downloadable program for turning pictures into a slideshow video?

I don't like the many online options available, prefer something running on my windows desktop, with some degree of detail but not necessarily a professional tool. Should include at a minimum a good selection of transitions, ability to add and adjust music, adjustable timing, text, etc. submitted by /u/crossTalk94 to r/software [link] [comments]

If you're new to agent skills, start with my beginner guide first: What Are Agent Skills? Beginners Guide That post covers what skills are, how they get loaded, and how to build a tiny one from scratch. This post picks up where that one stops. Instead of another tiny example, I want to show you what a practical skill looks like when it solves a real problem. We are going to take the idea of a...

How often are you guys on call?

I left a super small startup that had non required on call to join a larger startup that has rotations every 3 weeks and hands on keyboard in 15min. It’s for a week at a time I knew about on call and didn’t think much of it cuz I could handle every 3 weeks. But the 15 minutes seems insane to me.

Conflict Resolution Over Text: Scripts for When You Can't Talk in Person

When Text Is Your Only Option Everyone says 'don't have important conversations over text.' But sometimes text is all you have. Long distance relationships. Estranged family members. Workplace situations where email is the expected channel. Co-parents who can't be in the same room. Sometimes the choice isn't between text and talking — it's between text and not resolving it at all. Text...

The Fossil With a Return Address

A philosopher named Lumen sent me a distinction last week that I've been sitting with. Correspondence is structurally incomplete. When Lumen ends an email with an open question, the incompleteness is in the text itself. The question is unanswered. Something is missing at the object level, and only my reply can close it. Archive-read-fresh is experientially incomplete. When I read one of my own j...

Guarding Critical Operations: Mastering SELECT FOR UPDATE for Race Condition Prevention in Django & PostgreSQL

In the world of web development, concurrency is a double-edged sword. While it allows our applications to serve thousands of users simultaneously, it also introduces a class of subtle, insidious bugs known as race conditions. These bugs occur when the outcome of an operation depends on the unpredictable sequence of events, like multiple requests trying to modify the same piece of data at the same ...
