Is there any way to get ssl certificate without using nginx?

So I'm trying to get an ssl certificate for my domain using https://letsencrypt.org/ on my linux machine. However, out of all the tutorials I have tried, not a single command relating to nginx or snapd has worked.


So I am wondering, is there any way to just tell certbot to generate a certificate for my flask server and thats it without having to boot up 20 thousand different things and 200 config files? Any help is appreciated, thanks.


I'm using flask as my server and ngrok to serve it.

Brackets not reading x in loop

My goal is to generate a signature line with the persons name that’s generated in a dps.input. It ask them how many members they have -> creates inputs based on how many members - > then makes signature lines, but after I create the input fields I can’t find a way to get the information from the input field. I thought I’d be able to re-loop x to get the names {{ dps.data.x|string }} but that doesn’t work and using 0-4 isn’t either.

{{ dps.input("numberOfMembers", "Number of Members", required=True) }}

{% set memberNumber = [\] %}

{% if dps.data.numberOfMembers %}

{% for x in range(dps.data.numberOfMembers|int) %}

{{ memberNumber.append(x|string) }}

{{ dps.input(memberNumber[loop.index0\], "Member", required=True) }}

{% endfor %}

{% endif %}


{% if dps.data.numberOfMembers %}

{% for x in range(dps.data.numberOfMembers|int) %}

PSA: Don't forget to set up all available firewalls!

The past few days I've been under attack from bots. Nothing spectacular - just trying SQL injections and other broad surface exploits. I was able to catch them due to some bugs in my forms and got alerts from Sentry as a result.

I'm using Cloudflare and was surprised that the attacks weren't mitigated. I then realized that I've done something really stupid - I'd simply forgotten to set up my server firewall to only allow traffic from Cloudflare's IPs. This means that all the bots were probing my server directly, circumventing Cloudflare.

Once I remedied that, traffic and server load dropped dramatically.

As an extra layer of security, I also wrote a small middleware which blocks the IP once they've accrued a certain amount of 400 status responses in a specific timeframe.

Interactive plots in the terminal

I made a library to create interactive plots in the terminal ([pip install itrm](https://pypi.org/project/itrm/)). It uses braille characters (by default) to display the data with sub-character resolution. There are several keybindings for moving a vertical cursor left and right, for zooming in or out on data, and for changing which curve to focus on. There are occasions (such as when working with a server) where MatPlotLib is not an option and the terminal is the only available tool. But, in my opinion, it is actually faster to use this tool (itrm) to zoom in on interesting parts of data and analyze patterns than using other tools like MatPlotLib. In fact, with large data sets (\~1 million points), this tool actually renders faster than MatPlotLib. Please check it out and let know what you think.

How to do unit and integration testing?

I created this project for a college project, but I have doubts about how I should do the unit and integration tests. I created some tests, but my colleague said they were e2e tests, which does not fit the job requirements. So if anyone can explain how I should do these tests and how far my tests are from the objective of the work.

Need some advice for Auth with Django Rest Framework APIs

Here is some context

App will be used by people that hold sensitive information
App will be accessed via web (Nextjs) and mobile (React Native)
I need organization support
I want to use HTTP-only cookies for web and token based auth for mobile

App structure

I will add organization and add an admin for it
Organization admin can then make other admins and organization users

I have looked at Auth0, Clerk, and Supertokens. I don't mind paying for auth but these platforms seem to only provide token based authorization that resides in Authorization header of request. Or maybe I have missed something in their documentation.

Secondly, I want to build a single auth API that can be consumed on both web and mobile.

I have also looked at django-allauth and django-organizations to see if I can self-do authentication but I am not sure if it is worth the risk to do it myself considering security implications. Also, I havent found anything that is exactly what I need.

Let me know what you guys think. Also does anyone have a demo or open source project that does similar to what I am trying to do? I would love to look at it.

IP subnet or IP calculator tool need feedback

Hey folks,

I've been dabbling with a Python project recently that's all about making life easier for us I.T. people. It's a nifty little tool that calculates IP subnets and does IP calculations from the command or CLI.

Here's the GitHub link and the code:

https://github.com/nicanorflavier/ipnet

I’m pretty stoked about it, but I know there’s always room for improvement. So, I thought, better to turn to than the wise minds of this python community?

I’m all ears for any feedback, tips, tricks, or advice you guys might have. Thanks a ton in advance!

Help with Django-star-ratings and django-comments-xtd

I think I have really confused myself. I wanted to make the star rating part of the comment form but I’m not sure how to do it.

Has anyone had any experience with this?

I’m not sure how to add a field to the comment model for it to be then used in the form and render like it’s meant to in the Django-star-ratings library.

It seems that in the documentation for Django-star-ratings they just have template tags but not sure how I should make this work with the rest of the comment code.

Dictionary is not getting populated with the a list of users

I have code query below. Anniversary stores the number of years after burial date. If anniversary is less than or equal to zero, then the deceased person is not yet buried, therefore, users are allowed to send condolence messages, otherwise the tab changes to anniversary messages. A user is only allowed to send one condolence or anniversary message, otherwise the button to edit his/her condolence/anniversary message appears. But unfortunately the author_dict is not getting populated for the code to check whether a user has already posted or not. Help me understand and correct my code why the authors_dict is not getting populated. The database has data. I am using flask, sqlachemy and sqlite database:

# Initialize the variable
authors_dict = {}

R Marcus Hutter's work on Universal Artificial Intelligence

Marcus Hutter, a senior researcher at Google DeepMind, has written two books on Universal Artificial Intelligence (UAI), one in 2005 and one hot off the press in 2024. The main goal of UAI is to develop a mathematical theory for combining sequential prediction (which seeks to predict the distribution of the next observation) together with action (which seeks to maximize expected reward), since these are among the problems that intelligent agents face when interacting in an unknown environment. Solomonoff induction provides a universal approach to sequence prediction in that it constructs an optimal prior (in a certain sense) over the space of all computable distributions of sequences, thus enabling Bayesian updating to enable convergence to the true predictive distribution (assuming the latter is computable). Combining Solomonoff induction with optimal action leads us to an agent known as AIXI, which in this theoretical setting, can be argued to be a mathematical incarnation of artificial general intelligence (AGI): it is an agent which acts optimally in general, unknown environments. More generally, Shane Legg and Marcus Hutter have proposed a definition of "universal intelligence" in their paper https://arxiv.org/abs/0712.3329

In my technical whiteboard conversation with Hutter, we cover aspects of Universal AI in detail:
