Re: Coin Flip (Python Newbie) 9 Hours Ago by jassonadder Hey! Great job getting started with Python—your logic is almost there, just a couple of small fixes needed. The main issue is that you're using the variable timesflipped in your while loop, but it was never initialized. Because of that, the loop never runs properly, and your counters don't change. Here's a corrected version of your code:… Re: How to speed up my (WordPress) website? 21 Hours Ago by graceweb One thing I’ve noticed that helps maintain speed without breaking things is being careful with how many plugins you install. Sometimes even just one poorly optimized plugin can slow things down. Also, consider lazy loading videos and iframes if you haven’t already. Custom font on Cloudflare error page 1 Day Ago by Dani As you may know, yuo can customize the error pages in Cloudflare, such as for a WAF block, etc. For some reason, since the switchover to the new error pages dashboard, the custom font I always use isn't working. I can see that it converted https://cdn.daniweb.com/font.woff into inline base64 for the @font-face CSS, which sounds about right. … Re: 💻 What’s the First App You Install on a Fresh Windows Machine? 2 Days Ago by Reverend Jim >I'm quite sure that you can, if I remember correctly? Before OneDrive it was easily done. Not anymore. Microsoft is slightly brain dead. Locations for shell folders are stored in the registry. You'd think they'd all be under "Shell Folders", but not all of them are. And you'd think they would have consistent names. But here are … Re: Custom font on Cloudflare error page 1 Day Ago by wwwalker I would check out assets you add to custom error page. See https://developers.cloudflare.com/rules/custom-errors/ Re: How to Choose the Right Mobile App Development Company? 1 Day Ago by jonathannweyer A good starting point is checking their portfolio, look for apps similar to what you’re planning, especially ones on both iOS and Android. Client testimonials can help too, but try to find detailed reviews or even reach out to past clients if possible. Also, ask about their development process, how they handle updates, and how involved you’ll be … Re: Custom font on Cloudflare error page 1 Day Ago by Dani Hello Dwight, I had already checked out that link, but from what I can gather, Cloudflare does not consider individual resources (such as fonts, images, etc.) as "assets". My understanding is than an asset is the entire HTML file used to generate the page, complete with inline, base64 encoded resources. Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 3 Weeks Ago by Salem So I've seen two (possibly more) threads that end with the phrase "let's discuss" and an exclamation mark of over-enthusiasm (which is ironic, since it's low post count drive-by accounts posting this stuff). The preambles are well written, but meaningless pith. It's such an odd way of closing out a post that it stinks of having AI … Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 3 Weeks Ago by Dani I agree that they *might* be AI generated, or at least have the help of AI. Sometimes it's hard to tell, and I always want to exercise extreme caution and not delete or infract a post unless I'm 100% confident. I have a bit of a migraine right now, so I have to put a little more thought into whether these 2 posts should be deleted when my head is a… Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 3 Weeks Ago by Reverend Jim And I disagree with that. The post I was referring to was >In this thread, let's dive into the exciting advancements in the world of audio technology. From spatial audio to AI-driven sound systems, the audio landscape is evolving rapidly. Share your thoughts on the latest innovations, your favorite audio gadgets, or how new tech is shaping … Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 3 Weeks Ago by Reverend Jim I have a problem with people who start posts about a topic with "let's discuss", but don't actually start the discussion. I have a friend (?) in Toronto who, especially during election season (which seems to be always these days), asking for my opinion on things without ever offering one of her own. I got tired of putting in the effort … Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 3 Weeks Ago by Reverend Jim 1. I thought we didn't have "forums" anymore. 2. Perhaps the OP posted in the wrong place. 3. Regardless, it was clearly a discussion and not a question. It's moot since the thread has been deleted. Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 2 Weeks Ago by Reverend Jim I've had close relatives who had that but I don't recall headaches as a symptom. I hope I never get it (I can't get the vaccine because it's a live vaccine). Good luck with recovery now that you have a diagnosis. Re: How Does Google's BERT Algorithm Affect Modern SEO Practices? 3 Weeks Ago by ashleydent4u With BERT in play, it’s definitely become more important to prioritize content quality and user intent over traditional keyword stuffing. Keywords still matter, but the focus has shifted to how naturally they fit into well-written, helpful content that answers real questions users are asking. So, understanding your audience’s intent and creating … Re: How Does Google's BERT Algorithm Affect Modern SEO Practices? 3 Weeks Ago by jonathannweyer BERT shifted the focus, it's less about exact keywords now and more about matching search intent. Quality content that answers real questions clearly tends to rank better, so definitely prioritize that over keyword stuffing. Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 3 Weeks Ago by Dani I disagree with that sentiment when it comes to a Q&A forum such as DaniWeb. The very premise of the site is that people ask questions. Quite often, uninformed questions. Sometimes those questions are just asking for your informed opinion as an expert in your field or as someone more informed than they are at the topic at hand. Other people … Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 3 Weeks Ago by Dani >I fail to see the distinction between asking for an opinion versus a suggestion versus any other form of help or assistance. I understand that you see a distinction when the OP is trying to start a discussion versus asking for advice or help. However, I don’t understand why you make that distinction in a Q&A discussion forum. Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 2 Weeks Ago by Dani > I have a bit of a migraine right now, so I have to put a little more thought into whether these 2 posts should be deleted when my head is a bit clearer. Unfortunately, I ended up in the ER from an unrelenting migraine that hasn’t let up for 6 days, and is not responding to any medication. I don’t mean to drop the ball on this thread. Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 2 Weeks Ago by Dani Today is day one trillion of this still unrelenting headache. FINALLY, a diagnosis! I have shingles. Feeling hopeful to begin treatment and start feeling better. Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 2 Weeks Ago by Dani Jim, My intense headache is because the shingles rash is all over my scalp, my eyebrow, and even all over my eyelid! The intense headache pain was radiating from the area of my scalp where the shingles rash eventually presented. Luckily, the shingles vaccine is no longer live, so you should definitely get it. (I just happened to have not … Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 2 Weeks Ago by Reverend Jim I'll have to ask next time I am at the pharmacy. Thanks for the tip. Re: Are we being played by AI? Let's Discuss! 2 Weeks Ago by Dani Having a very, very difficult time. My eye is swollen shut and I’m in danger of losing my vision as the shingles rash gets closer and closer to my cornea.

The wait for v4 gold release is killing me. Also, please don't make fun of me for being a jQuery user. DaniWeb has been built on jQuery for decades. (Okay, maybe that's not something to brag about.) Evaluating OpenAI GPT 4.1 for Text Summarization and Classification Tasks 2 Weeks Ago by usmanmalik57 On April 14, 2025, OpenAI released [GPT-4.1](https://openai.com/index/gpt-4-1/) — a model touted as the new state-of-the-art, outperforming GPT-4o on all major benchmarks.

How many of you linux fanboys and girls use it as your primary operating system for daily tasks? How does it compare to Windows or macOS in terms of productivity and overall user experience? Re: Is linux your daily driver? 3 Weeks Ago by Dani I started this thread thinking about James, DaniWeb's sysadmin, who I was surprised to hear uses Windows as his daily driver, despite his proficiency in Linux. I believe he quoted things like Linux not being ideal for gaming. I'm macOS only these days. Re: Is linux your daily driver? 3 Weeks Ago by jkon I exclusively use Linux on my personal PCs, currently the Ubuntu distribution. I switched from Windows between 2010 and 2012. Before that, I used Linux on a different PC for several years, followed by a period of dual booting. Thanks to WINE, I have yet to encounter software I cannot run on my PC. I believe Ubuntu has become so user-friendly that … Differential Directory, indexing method 2 Weeks Ago by xrjf **Features:** * Retrieves the differentiating bit of a key with respect to the previous one and stores only this position in the index. * With at most one single disk read, assuming the index is in memory, it determines whether the key exists or not. * The index is always sorted and therefore requires no reorganization. * Performance is … Re: Is there anything special I should pay attention to when doing SEO? 2 Weeks Ago by scope_2 Choosing the right keywords that match user intent is essential when performing SEO.
