The question is "could I" and not "will it work?" The answer is you could. And in fact given the wide variations of such schemes it may or may not work. No one will be able to tell you except the department that runs the network. But could you connect such a thing? Yes.

Where's line 72?

Since it's just a sketch. You need to meet with the usual board of physicians to get them to tell you it's OK or not. Folk's lives will depend on this and since it's an app that you wrote you have to tread carefully. That is, write your procedure document, design the screens, the questions and the decision tree. Once it's all in paper or say a PDF then your board or physiciams gives it go ahead.

I've seen folk want to write medical apps but get wiped out over the work you do before you code.

I worry about deleting a thing before I move a thing. Since your oject lastNode is removed in line 4, I worry what line 5 would do.
Also check out the answer at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2437158/whats-the-best-way-to-move-a-child-up-in-a-net-xmldocument where an insert method is used and remove is not used at all.

Sorry if you felt something was implied. Many projects over the decades. Project tracking is easier today but I continue to see companies try to do without the project owner or manager. Hey, their choice. Reap what you sow.

I worry that you want others to write your code. Maybe in a for hire post you could ask that but here you share your code and point out where you are stuck and members tackle the issues.

Since I don't want to leave you with nothing, why not look at prior examples as you build your app?
Example which looks to use wx and the database you mentioned seem to be out there. Look at https://wiki.wxpython.org/FullyFunctionalDemo

Let me share why I won't. Let's start wtih losses. Last year even with 71 million uses, CNBC notes that the company posted a $1.5 billion loss in 2017. And prior years didn't fare much better.

This may be hard to grasp but this cash raise is so those with shares now (company or people) can cash out and the new shareholders are left holding the bag. Not nice is it?

So if you are a Spotify exec, this is great news.

Since you got the report for free it appears that the results are indeed free.

As to understanding this report, I'll give you the answer for line 1. That's the first line of an ASCII graphic that follows on for a few lines. It's just for looks and to understand it you may have to move back another foot to see they made an ASCII graphic of their product name.

As to the rest, next time don't dump the entire report. Be specific to what line you wanted more thoughts about.

Finally I'm sure they offer support for a fee like most good companies do. The question becomes "Is it worth paying for?" For those that are just learning about the subject at hand, that can be a simple yes.

Parting note: This seems eerily similar to your post at https://www.daniweb.com/programming/web-development/threads/515767/amp-accelerated-mobile-pages That is, you seem to have yet again found something on the web.

WHY that GPU?

Here's why not! -> http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-HD-630-Desktop-Kaby-Lake-vs-AMD-Radeon-HD-6450/m178724vsm7821

That old GPU is so bad that it looks like the Intel HD 630 IGP beats the C**P out of this old card.

Businesses that make money by collecting and selling detailed records of private lives were once plainly described as "surveillance companies." Their rebranding as "social media" is the most successful deception since the Department of War became the Department of Defense

This via Twitter which poses another question.

As to those, they seem to miss your goal of no copying and not revealing the site address.

I'm going with no. There is no such thing. Do you need to get into why?

For example the URL is human readable and shows up in almost all browsers so you can't hide that. So that can be copied.
Any file that can be read from a drive for execution is automatically open for copying.

I could go on but I see you're a long time member and why dash your ideas like this?

-> If these are tools for learnings wouldn't a teacher supply them to all the children?

Example: Ol' Musky shares the patents for a lot of his car inventions. Why?

"If we're all in a ship together," Musk said, "and the ship has some holes in it, and we're sort of bailing water out of it, and we have a great design for a bucket, then even if we're bailing out way better than everyone else, we should probably still share the bucket design."

If these are great learning tools, share the wealth.

This area can upset folk. That is, if we break the VPN like this, it's not really a VPN but more of a proxy. That out of the way, some routers let you setup your LAN to VPN to where you wish. But breaking the VPN is well, another thing altogether.

To date I've kept the VPN true and don't accept such breakage to be acceptable and call it a VPN.

But as we see when reading priors at https://www.google.com/search?q=local+lan+access+when+using+VPN to break this (or some may calling fixing it) what you use for VPN matters as each system varies.

Frankly this may be a case of accuracy versus costs. Item 4 for example may be low value. Why do any of this for targets the user has little interest in? That and the time to travel 5 KM versus 5.1 KM has little need to be accurate. You could after some runs loosen up on accuracy and lump everything into loose categories of time like "under 5 minutes away" to other groups. Being accurate will be costly.

Whenever this comes up I remember how this is done at the office. We have a Microchip MIPS system so we use the C compiler and tell the compiler to save the assembler output for examination.

Seems simple enough. And free. http://www.microchip.com/forums/m783270.aspx

As I read your recent post at https://www.daniweb.com/community-center/threads/515773/python it appears you do know how to output from python.

Be sure to mark solved in your solved posts.

Take the time to read https://developers.google.com/edu/python/strings

Notice how the index into strings start at zero.

About replicate what IIS does. Think about the years IIS and other systems with hundreds of programmers have been working on this.

Now, for your first expedition I don't think it's bad to need more cores and RAM. You'll get better with time.

That is, you don't come in 1st or even place well in your first races.

Again, I see nothing wrong with high CPU use with so little resources.

Psuedo code is easy to find the definition on the web, so that's not the hurdle here.

What I want you to do is forget that you are coding. Imagine you have to do this manually. What steps would you take and to get it ready for a computer program, think about what values you need to get and calculate along the way to the answer.

No computer programming today. Just how would you do this, step by step.

I didn't find such functionality when I looked. Read https://github.com/aspnet/Microsoft.Data.Sqlite/issues/357 on ideas to implement it yourself.

But my thought here is since it's an in-memory system, your code is making the changes so you would implement it as you see fit in your change code.

Looks similar to https://www.codeproject.com/Questions/1230461/Modify-the-supplied-class-unorderedarraylist-the-f

Also, it's unclear what your assignment is here.

Hi, I'm an old hand at old school RS232 links. The most common reason for jibberish is the terminal speed doesn't match what the sender is using.

Example: If the sender is sending 19200 Baud, 8 bits and your terminal app is set to 9600, you get jibber. Not an encoding issue at all.

I admit I won't answer this directly but let's figure out first what happens with and without the forward slash. I'll defer to
https://www.thoughtco.com/urls-ending-with-slash-3466509

OK, that's a good clue how you might handle this. Since no slash forces a redirect, that's my clue to see how Django redirects. For that you have to scour your Django docs. Like this one: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/contrib/redirects/
Read until it sinks in. To me that's where your magic has to happen.

So something like http://www.corteil.co.uk/Blog/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-birthday-countdown/
It appears this is a common thing. maybe a few dozen to hundreds out there.

@Sinda. Don't bury your new question in 4 year old posts. Make your own. Do not leave out details like the cart isn't from HP and the printer is 10 years old.

Did you inspect the insides for all the fans coming on at power up?

Did you get out a Volt meter (remember this is a basic item when you repair computers and more) to measure each power supply leg?
What were the readings?

Also, why not find out what PC model this is? It's going to matter soon enough.

Wait, why does your post look exactly like https://www.chegg.com/homework-help/questions-and-answers/python-code-game-resembles-123-redlight-green-light-game-person-starts-curator-stands-end--q26277112

I wonder how you got this far in the course to hit this task. Did you happen to ask folk to code this for you? Folk that do that often fail on the finals.

I think you need to read the next link. https://computer.howstuffworks.com/dns.htm

You most likely bought a domain or web site name. So next up is to share where you will be put this side. Did the seller supply you with a place to put your web site at?

Those Kodi boxes and many add ons are dead now. Read why at https://www.howtogeek.com/336176/why-your-kodi-box-isnt-working-and-what-to-use-instead/

Are you sure you want to keep up a site that will only get folk that are upset?

You mean like https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/3ffs77/where_to_get_movie_subtitles/

I think you've battled this before. My encounters with this has always been problems with filenames that are OK on the server but not allowed on FAT32. To sort this out I have to find a title that didn't sync and then see if some FAT32 rule was broken.

Also, it's possible that sync stops on the first failure. Nod to logs and MAX VERBOSITY at https://download.samba.org/pub/rsync/rsyncd.conf.html

Repeat, nod to all options about logging. Chain saws must be sharp, oiled and gassed up. You know what happened to Ash Williams.

A few things. There are examples about this at https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&q=python+sql+example+login+name+password

next, you need to read the next link to see how these forums work.

That's what HP spun off. Right or wrong the king (long live the king?) of analyzers we used was the venerable HP 8510, B, C etx.

So here's the quick setup. Select the input range from say 2 to 3 GHz and of course setup some antenna to the input. Now let it sweep.
You'll see a ton of spikes in the 2.4GHz range. Now zoom in on those spikes and you get more spikes. Now keep scanning and eventually you'll get a new spike. That tells you something new came into range. Doesn't tell you much more than that yet.

To get more will require a lot more hardware.

So back to less expensive ideas. The Bluetooth discovery you know about and its limits. There's also good old packet sniffing. You could look into WireShark and see what you can divine from that.

Finally the newish fake cell phone tower emulators. Google up Stingray to learn what that is.

Nothing cheap, small or easy to use for this question.

Thanks Assertnull.

I do own a lightweight device that detects WIF signals but it's quite dumb and is not as interesting as WiFi is almost everywhere. It certainly won't tell you if the source was Android or other.

As to the BLUETOOTH, I will call that cooperative discovery. But it fails to reveal if the device is Android, some PC with what OS or an old dumb flip phone. It only tells you that some device had Bluetooth discovery turned on.

Passive discovery has to be spectrum analyzer then that put through analysis to categorize "what is it?" With many devices sleeping or in low power mode most of the time this would be costly to develop.

Then go ask about spectrum analyzers and how these are used to detect RF emissions passively. I consider myself lucky as I worked in the defense industry then commercial industrial controls and more. Today I'm on a team writing Android and other apps.

The only thing I worry about here is someone thinking that what you asked for would fit in your hat or pocket. We're not that small yet.

This is why for device tracking the device to be tracked cooperates. Otherwise you are looking at passive detection.

Where have you seen such a thing? My background was in defense where we would have passive sensing but I would be guessing what you are thinking here. Share what this sensing would be based on and what gear would be used.

For example one could set up a spectrum analyzer to detect all sorts of RF and then use a "what's different" to detect an active device come into the area and leave. But a sleeping device would emit so little that this would be iffy at best.

Let's hear what science you think would used for this.

This sort of plea is not unusual. That is I read it across forums so I take it you either posted widely and didn't like the answer or just didn't find them.

Anyhow, you can not be a passive user of this technology today. You must be able to get your stuff on backups (more than one, because stuff fails) and then if you suspect an intruder be ready to factory reset anything suspect.

Almost all spy software will not survive that.

Wait, did you just ask how to get all 1.86 Billion Facebook user info? Can you rephrase the question?

So this fails on both?

Anyhow, since you didn't share the email server or host I can't doublecheck or supply how it should work or if there might be a DNS issue.

DNS? Did you try it with the DNS you use? Or the Google DNS of 8.8.8.8?

Remember I might assume you know that telnet test is for SMTP and not IMAP servers. That was noted in the articles I read from my link.

I just ran into this and it turned out to be the owner's choice of AntiVirus Suite. Some are overreaching IMO.

Other reasons are trojans, DNS hijackers and such.

That aside, try the old telnet test. Example: https://www.google.com/search?q=test+email+with+telnet

@Addvantum. Don't be disengenious. Your profile and other post tell us you are into sales or support of these products. You could get called out for possible shilling.

You posted as if this is a job for hire. Please read https://www.daniweb.com/programming/threads/435023/read-this-before-posting-a-question

I also worry you left out a requirement as usually the app/program/code will ask for the first n positive integers.

No matter, I bet this has been written in over 20 languages. Let's find out.
Category: Primes -> https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Category:Prime_Numbers

There you go. 130 different languages.

ALARMS! Line 19 shows a common gaffe in login and registration systems. Here's the rule.

Never store passwords in a database.

It's just not done. If this is for your school project, I'd mark it down for this. I can't write what a bad idea this is.
Here's how you can research how to do it right.

@Is, that download.com tends to almost always install toolbars, adverts and more. I no longer go near that site.

Happy March 1. Oops, now Jan 1!

Put debug lines prior to 38 and 60 to output this.file.documentsDirectory so you can see what's there. Then go back line by line to see what your code did to fill in the variable.

That's a start. As in, you want to write an app that does something. But you omitted your code and where you were stumped.

Also, https://www.google.com/search?q=Python+Login+System+App finds folk that have done this so it's not as if you have to start from scratch.

I have to ask since I just wonder. Did you use google on your question? I ask because our new hires seem to not know to do this. Is research forbidden where you are?

PS. I didn't downvote you. Some do when folk arrive asking for code. Read how the forum works at

Time to put it on Google Docs.

But first you are likely to get replies by SCUM that SPAM document repair tools. Hey, if you fall for that, your wallet.

We don't need to open the doc in OpenNote as noted at http://smallbusiness.chron.com/save-onenote-google-docs-53952.html but the second half is all I ever needed.

I checked out Nine hertz and you might want to come clean so you don't get downvoted into oblivion.

Maybe you were scouting for talent? Hope to hear back from you.

I meant I went looking for examples and found it's not a simple thing to implement and have work on many clients. I get the feeling you are looking for a plugin and not to write your own. If the link supplied and the code there can't be used, keep searching.
