That's the option to publish it. I was curious about the aggregated results.

Is there a place to view the device database yet or is that coming soon?

EDIT: Found it here

Are you trying to make an offline website? If so, you could look into using a Service Worker which would give you full control over when the content gets refreshed.

Windows has something called the ShutdownBlockReasonCreate API which enables apps with long running operations to prevent a shutdown to avoid corruption or losing work.

Is there an equivalent for Linux? When used appropriately, it makes shut downs even more graceful.

I thought this was using SDKs embedded in apps and advertising platforms. This is a different threat model. You need to block ads and prefer using websites instead of apps which have more access to device info like the advertising ID.

If you've got an Android, go to Settings, search for ads, and find the advertising ID and delete the ID. It's a stable identifier that can be used to identify your phone.

Switch to more private browsers like Firefox for Mobile and install uBlock Origin.

EDIT: I'm not saying this will protect you against IMSI catchers or tower based drag nets. In addition to not bringing your phone, when you do go home you need an entirely different set of tools to protect yourself.

Are those networks marked as hidden SSID networks? Hidden networks require the client STA to broadcast them to find them.

You're describing what agile should be, but Agile™ is the variant you get in toxic companies where they say they are agile, but it's just a mechanism to micromanage developers with bad managers asking why you're not burning down enough points or why you haven't met the estimated date you thought before you realized there was more technical debt than a bankrupt business.

Maybe you've avoided it but I've seen it first hand.

Pretty cool. I played around with Dafny at work for some security-related software and I was pondering if Dafny could be effective for other problems like complex web-app state management or even more standard services.

I use it to play music from Jellyfin to my Sonos speakers. It won't fix a Jellyfin library that has bad data, but it can pull in music from multiple different sources and push to different players.

It works well enough. Some issues where songs get interrupted, but I think that's issue with the Music Assistant/Sonos integration.

I developed my own scraping system using browser automation frameworks. I also developed a secure storage mechanism to keep my data protected.

Yeah there is some security, but ultimately if they expose it to me via a username and password, I can use that same information to scrape it. Its helpful that I know my own credentials and have access to all 2FA mechanisms and am not brute forcing lots of logins so it looks normal.

Some providers protect it their websites with bot detection systems which are hard to bypass, but I've closed accounts with places that made it too difficult to do the analysis I need to do.

I scrape my own bank and financial aggregator to have a self hosted financial tool. I scrape my health insurance to pull in data to track for my HSA. I scrape Strava to build my own health reports.
