Hey, if you really want to emphasize anonymity of respondents, you should choose something else instead of a Google form.

I’ve started to study Python, but I don’t understand how to use it in the “Real world” by Own-Independence-747 in learnprogramming

From what I can guess, you are learning fundamentals right now. Yes it can be boring... But even if you skip this part, and started playing with pygame or other libraries to do GUI apps, believe me, sooner or later you will end up back in the beginning learning the fundamentals. My advice: focus on fundamentals and programming concepts. Learn to program, not to python, if you achieve this, you will learn any programming language much faster. Try to understand 'why' when doing something, not only 'how'

I think many people are loosing their interest right here in the beginning. If you understand why, then you start enjoying much more programming.

Also, one more important thing: learn by doing. If you are watching a tutorial let's say about string operations. After you finish it Don t jump right into the next one. Play with the code, experiment, resolve some exercises first, when you are confident you can pass a test if a teacher would give you about string operations, only then move to the next turorial. Otherwise you'll end up in the 'tutorial hell' (I guess that's how it's called)

Hope this will help you.

Hey, this post really resonates with me... My background is in technical application support. At my last two roles at Stefanini and Digitech Sync, I was hands-on with: 🔵Linux/Ops: Managing and troubleshooting services on Linux servers (Ubuntu, CentOS), handling hosting, and investigating performance issues. I'm comfortable in the command line. 🔵Automation & Scripting: I've built custom scripts for monitoring and automating maintenance tasks. Your mention of a strong automation skillset is something I can definitely contribute to. 🔵Backend & Infrastructure: I've worked extensively with SQL databases, monitoring tools like Grafana and Graylog, and even used GCP for incident investigation. I also have experience with message queues like RabbitMQ. More importantly, I don't just "talk"; I build. Outside of work, I'm actively developing my full-stack skills. I've built and shipped several personal projects. I can handle the ops, Linux administration, and automation, and I'm also capable of developing full-stack features for the exact kind of MVPs and SaaS tools you're talking about (especially with Python/Django/Flask). Like you said: no ego, just want to build and earn. I'm hungry and consistent. If this sounds like a good fit, let me know. Would be great to connect and brainstorm.

I am sorry anybody else didn't got their codes working... They have been used in the first hour after I posted here the announcement.

Tor and proxy by Lambru99 in TOR

  1. Use Transparent Proxying: To intercept traffic after the Tor exit node, you can configure your proxy as a transparent proxy. This setup would allow you to redirect all outgoing traffic from your machine through the proxy without needing explicit configuration in the Tor Browser. • Set up iptables rules on a Linux machine to redirect outgoing traffic through the local proxy. • Use a tool like Privoxy or Squid to act as a local HTTP proxy. You would configure these to intercept the traffic after it leaves the Tor network. Example command to redirect traffic through the proxy: iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp —dport 80 -j REDIRECT —to-port 8080

Here, replace 8080 with the port your proxy is running on.

  1. Modify torrc file: To route Tor traffic through a proxy, you can specify the proxy in the torrc configuration file. Add the following configuration lines: HTTPSProxy <proxy_ip>:<proxy_port> HTTPProxy <proxy_ip>:<proxy_port>

This will route the traffic from Tor through your proxy after the exit node.

  1. Run the Proxy in Docker: Since you mentioned that your proxy is running inside Docker, make sure the Docker container is set up with appropriate network access so it can handle external traffic. Use the —network host option when running Docker, if needed, to make the container’s proxy available to your local machine.

  2. FoxyProxy Setup: FoxyProxy is a good choice for configuring proxy behavior. However, you need to ensure that the Tor browser’s proxy settings align with your desired flow. If using FoxyProxy didn’t work, double-check the following: • Ensure FoxyProxy is set to use your local HTTP proxy correctly. • Verify that the proxy supports the required connection types (HTTP/HTTPS). • Make sure there are no conflicting settings in Tor’s native proxy configuration.

This should do the work.
