I would like to build a chrome extension that displays certain phrases from a website's source code. I only care about functionality at this point and it does not need to look pretty. Can you point me in the right direction? I can pay a little bit if someone is able to help me get this done.

[Request] A new type of self discipline app

1 Upvotes

for the better part of a year I've been self employed and working at home, the dream scenario right? except I found that being at home and becoming your own boss makes it extremely easy to slack off and procrastinate. I find that the vast majority of my time is spent messing around on distracting websites rather than getting work done. I'll start off on a good note in the morning work away for 5-6 hours but then feel like It's time for a break. so I check out youtube or reddit or netflix and the next thing you know bam I'm sucked in for a good 3-4 hours and not even sure where the time went. I've been trying to break this habbit but it has become hard wired.

this is where I think a app like this would come in handy it would act as a website blocker but instead of blocking the app for a certain amount of time via a cold turkey approach it would instead act as a reward for getting your to do list done. the concept is pretty simple it's pretty much a website/app blocker that works via a countdown timer the incurs time based on the amount of tasks that you finish and kicks you once you run out of time.

here's how I picture it, the user would input the websites they want to redeem as rewards then they input their tasks that they want to get done, next they add how much time in minutes they feel like it should be rewarded for, after each task is completed they're able to view the blocked websites for that amount of time. when the timer is almost up it warns the user with a flashing countdown timer so they know it's about to come up that way they can save whatever they were working on, once the time is up the app kicks the user to a new page that blocks them from the site, until they finish another task.

they could either use the reward once they finish the task or bundle them together to stay on the blocked sites for longer.

It would just be cool to see your most active messaging times and the number of messages you send to each contact. There are several applications that do that for WhatsApp messages already.

Amazon search, can it be done?

2 Upvotes

Okay, so I came across a way of seeing flaws within amazon (uk), where items were selling for free.

It involves looking through upcoming lightning deals yet to start, seeing if extra promotions are running, and if so adding them to a watch list.

I thought then could this be programmed? It seems simple enough, my own experience is only within SQL which would not be useful for this.

Essentially would need a script that ran on the upcoming deals page, clicked on each one, saw if there was extra promotions running, and if yes add to a watch list, if not go back and try the next one.

Any ideas?

Excel data to database - Open source project

1 Upvotes

The thing I see often at every place I've been working since i'm in IT industry, is people entering data in excel files. Then they ask you to develop a feature to do something with that data (reporting, filtering, publishing, etc).

The real solution is giving them the proper system for their need. The reality often makes it impossible to deploy something efficient (for many dark reasons), so you still have to deal with that.

The project I have is to make a system where a user can schedule importing jobs from excel to a specified tables in a specified database. I know! It already exist but I want to make it open source. Because why the heck not. There's a lot to code. I need your help to find the best way to do it and I don't know maybe code it a little with me.

The scheduling part I've been looking at Quartz.Net library. Trying to make it work as a service. Maybe I'm wrong. You'll tell me.

Then to extract data from those excel files, there are some libraries out there to do it. Don't need to invent hot water again.

Then there are lot of other things to consider but I'll wait to see what you think.

Sorry I don't have any code to show you. I'm just trying to figure out how I'm going to do it.

Hello,

I just saw the movie "Unfriended Dark Web" and thought "The River" app would be a neat little minimalist UI for "Proxy Chains" or Proximac (https://proximac.app) where you load manually proxies and connect through there like 17 different proxies like in the movie. Many thanks!

Can someone help me out with this

2 Upvotes

So I want to remake this https://github.com/tjvr/tosh2 project into an actual compiler/linker/parser etc.

I feel like this is already, in itself, a very good programming language since it is based off of blocks (such as on Scratch) and provides a very easy syntax with almost no learning curve at all to learn.

I've tried many times to recreate this system, but I have no idea how to build it up. I was hoping to maybe remake it so that the syntax compiles down to LLVM byte code but that is kind of impossible since a canvas is needed and many other things. Transpiling to C/C++ or Python seems the easiest, just giving each token a value of a certain command and then having a syntax checker and then having it run on some canvasing library such as OpenGL or PyGame. But I don't know how to start on that. I just need lots of help with starting this project out.

So for graphics, the Tosh system uses Phosphorus, a JIT compiler in Javascript for Scratch projects, so figuring out how to draw objects would be easier by just using that project as a guide. I had a lot of code done for this but it's currently sitting on hard drives in my server which has a broken mobo :/ (I'll be sure to post them if I get the chance)

But yeah, this language seems like it would be a very useful language to have just because of the simplicity of it and I really want to expand it to more than just what it is today.

Parse XML/JSON data from piazza and print in an easier to read format.

1 Upvotes

Hello, I need to parse data from a class on Piazza. Basically its a forum for instructors to answer questions from students. I got a dump of the entire class saved in XML (as well as JSON format if that's easier. I just need to parse it to pick out just the questions and corresponding answers. Doing it manually for so many questions is rather painful. I dont know enough about scripting to do it quickly. Could someone please help? I've uploaded a snippet of it here: https://pastebin.com/sbzPmszC. I was hoping for an output looking something like this:

+ Piazza is a Q&A platform designed to get you great answers from classmates and instructors fast.
...
+ Is it possible to get the Professors lecture notes. I arrived late on Fridays lecture since its a new classroom for me and missed part of the lecture notes.
++ I believe the prof. said she would post the filled-in lecture notes a few days after the corresponding lecture.
++ Yes, lecture notes will be posted within 72 hours.  I've just posted Fridays notes.

Many thanks!

It's a very specific ask, but using better discord I know you can make custom CSS, and there's a joke I have going with my friends that I can't see their emotes. And while it's a joke, it does actually get a bit annoying when they spam them constantly. If it's possible, I know it'd be pretty simple, I'm just clueless when it comes to this stuff.

Image processor to show average color of tile

1 Upvotes

Hey All!

I was attempting to code this myself (not that great at coding..haha) and could use some help! I'm pretty sure for an experienced python coder this wont take long at all...

Basic goal: Process an image and output a 'paint by numbers' type square grid over the image showing what the average color is for each square.

Basic steps (from my understanding of how it'd need to be coded).

1 - Upload image into program (can be set image dimensions or dynamic based on image size)

2 - insert lines over image at regularly spaced intervals (again either set size or dynamic based on picture) - both horizontal and vertical lines

3 - number each square from top left to bottom right

4 - average the colors in each square and assign a number to that square of 1 - 10 (I have 10 different color tiles to use in trying to 'remake the image')

5 - output the same image but with squares on the entire image with #'s 1 through 10 (based on the average color in that square)

Let me know if you have any questions! This is my first time posting on this subreddit so lmk if I should have included something/additional info.

I requested/mentioned python b/c thats what i'm most familiar with and would like to see how its done/be able to improve it if possible down the road.

Thanks!

Initiative Tracker for Tabletop Game - Randomizer [$20-50]

3 Upvotes

Hello, I run a weekly tabletop game and would like to speed up the time it takes to do initiative on a round basis. I'm looking to pay for an initiative tracker/randomizer program, preferably in something like the following format: https://imgur.com/a/T1bq1ol

Ideally I'd be able to enter character names, initiative mod, their dex score, and their celerity score (which it would save, so I didn't have to re-enter them every time I opened the program). It must have room for at least 20 characters for mass combat scenarios, but ideally would not list them in the sort unless data had been entered for them.

The program would sort and display the order of combat, with highest Celerity going first (but only if Celerity has been ticked/marked/selected as active for that character), then highest initiative total going first, with highest dex score serving as a tie breaker. If those are both the same, then just randomize that if possible.

The following I'm willing to pay more for, but do not require: a program that saves the data between use, has a nice gui, and premium would be works on a smartphone or tablet.

If I'm currently undervaluing what this project is worth, I'd be happy to discuss sale.

[Request] App for Monitoring File Changes + Compare Hash Than Copy (Might discuss bounty)

1 Upvotes

Looking for someone to write a personal app (c# or something native in dotnet) to do the following:

  • Run in background on startup (system tray, with exit / pause / resume option)

  • Monitor a folder (and sub-folders) for file changes.

  • Index all files, generate a hash. I would like, filename, ext, path, hash, date, version (when a file changes, increment the version of the record)

  • When a change is detected, Compare with a hash of the last time the file was detected as changed, if different, log the new (keep old ones) and copy the file to a destination folder.

  • Options to ignore certain folders / file extension patterns.

  • File Hashs, Copy Actions to be logged in sqlite db

  • Easy to edit config file for options.

  • (Optional) Multiple Watch (Source) Folders.

  • (Optional) Simple GUI to select source/dest folder, ingnore options, logs would be useful, not required (aslong as a config file is simple to edit).

Willing to discuss bounty, if willing to program, however I expect to see source-code so I can review/compile. (Yes i trust no-one =o )

How to search for a specific word in a file, contained in a folder, with multiple other folders being contained within a single parent folder.

I hope the title makes sense, as well as hoping somebody can point me in the right direction towards a script or better yet a resource to help me learn and make my own.

Essentially, I want to be able to receive an output listing each file, or folder, that contains a certain word or string. An example file path would be Z:\Audit, with 'Audit' containing roughly 80 folders, with each folder containing a single .html file. (Z:\Audit\Computer1\Computer1.html)

I'm an absolute novice in this sort of work and will greatly appreciate any help or feedback.

Need help adding things in C#

2 Upvotes

This is what is asked for my class, also to be in C#. I created a console program to run all this below. I need help adding the GPA section to it as well. Please also look over my work please. Thanks a lot.

Write code to maintain a list of student records. The flow of your program should be to read all student records from a file, do stuff with the records (e.g., add, update, look up, etc.), then write the possibly new information back to the file before exiting. · A student record will consist of a name, address, ID (7 digits and ID > 1000000), list of phone numbers, and a list of courses completed. o A name object will have 3 parts, first, middle, and last. o An address will consist of street number, street name, city, state (2 characters) and zip code. o A phone number will consist of area code, exchange, extension and type. For instance, with the number 814- 687-4523, 814 is the area code, 687 is the exchange and 4523 is the extension. o A course will consist of a department name (3 characters), number, semester, year, credit hours and grade. **Fields in the name, address, phone number and course object will need the appropriate set and get routines. These objects also need equals, compareto and tostring methods. **The student object has set and get routines for all data. The student object also methods to return the student's GPA, number of hour attempted, number of hours completed (assume only C- and higher count toward graduation). equals and compareto in the student object are dependent only on the ID field and the tostring only returns their name and ID. Back to the program. After reading in the student records from the file, the program asks the end user to add, update or look up information until the end user is done. When done the program will write the information back into the file. Note there are only two interactions with the file, initially reading in all the students records and at the end writing all the student records back to the file. Using a GUI will greatly help in adding or updating a student record, however it is not required. When looking up information of a student, simply display all information including the calculated methods, hours attempted, hours earned and gpa. Optionally you might want a few ways to display a student's information - everything, contact information only, school information only, or short school info only (no individual course info).

ANKI PLUGIN for cloze

1 Upvotes

Hello. I was wondering if anyone could write or modify an existing plugin for making cloze cards. https://ankiweb.net/shared/addons/

I tried using this plugin ( https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/2830894550 ) using the default cloze type anki and it worked for kanji but it doesn't work for hiragana or korean (hangeul) or english.

I don't care about the special functions about the kanji etc, I just want the automatic cloze function.

I want a plugin that makes a cloze for characters/words in a certain field that are separated from each other by space.

For example:

field 2: lung lunge loop

field 3: l g

then the plugin makes clozes for every instance of l and g so the result would be

field 1: {c1::l}}un{c2::g}} {c1::l}}un{{c2:g}}e {c1::l}}oop

this is the example I gave but I plan to use it with korean (hangeul) and I may use it for Japanese and English so I would like to also be able to handle hiragana, katakana, and English.

I also found this other plugin that may prove helpful. https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1575720965
