Building a tool

Hopefully I'm not breaking any rules about self promotion or any other nonsense. If so let me know and I will either modify or remove.

I have recently found myself unemployed and I am going through and trying to work with a new programming stack that I haven't worked with in the past. Not sure what I am going to do with it yet, but I was hoping that there might be some people who are interested in trying it out.

In the past I have utilized other tools for tracking the content of my worlds, but I never found one that really worked for me. The last one that I ended up working with was worldanvil. The tools is amazing.... but, I found myself spending more time trying to make things look better than actually writing content. So here is my crack at things, you can register and poke around, if you have any thoughts for things that you would like to see let me know, not sure if I'm going to fully stand it up as a hosted things or maybe dump it as a docker container.

Thoughts and feedback would be greatly appreaciated.

Shielding Your Code: How Effective Unit Testing Enhances Application Security — Withstand Security

Test-Driven Development (TDD) is a development methodology that prioritizes writing tests for code before the code itself, followed by writing the code to pass those tests. This approach not only ensures the functionality of the code but also presents an opportunity to address security concerns, particularly validation bugs, early in the development process.

Logging: The Unsung Hero in Developer Security - Here's Why and How

In the last blog we talked about what everyone assumed was the most boring topic that you could talk about, keeping your dependencies up to date. But I think I’ve got it topped this time, this time we are going to be talking about that number one thing that all developers love spending their time working on... Logging.

Developer Security Software Composition Analysis — Withstand Security

The differences between application security and developer security are simple enough in principle, but go significantly further as soon as you get past the surface. Many people in the cyber security community seem to place a great emphasis on the effectiveness of application security but in many cases, will completely negate the secondary portion of this which is securing the individual who is responsible for introducing security bugs to the software. I'm not saying that to be harsh, mistakes are a simple part of life and without the proper tooling and education it is very easy to continue to produce mistakes especially when greeted with constricted timelines and consistent budget crunch.

I can't be the only person... (Issues with lemmy)

I love the decentralized web, I left the others and came to the new sites... We know that there will only be a matter of time before there is the next 'we've had enough' moment, so what are the things that we can do to help build the technologies to be ready for it?

I think it's important that there be a rich culture that is approachable, but that doesn't mimic what the other platforms do. Lemmy won't have the numbers that the other site has. But surely we have more to offer that isn't memes of cans of beans.

Digital Trash Heap

So here’s the problem that I have, I have several generations of back ups, which are currently taking over huge amounts of space on my NAS server. I want to be able to go through and process all of the files that are on it while the duplicating, and possibly going through and tagging any files that I find that are helpful. Is anyone aware of a good tool to help accomplish this task. Again because of the nature of the backups, I don’t want to utilize any software I’m not running locally.

Thanks in advance.

Returning to the Game

I am recently coming back to D&D after an almost two decade hiatus. I have noticed that there seem to be a lot of sour grapes towards Hasbro and WotC. I know that there was the whole issue with the Open Game License, and that there has always been a portion of the community that think that the new edition has killed the game. But it seems a little extreme for these items (or at least my understanding).

Is there another reason for the sour grapes or is there something that I am missing? It is hyped up for ratings/likes?
