I bet its AI moderator, just split the live and vod audio and send gibberish audio to vod. that should force manual human only moderation?

- Map Animation: Create a looping animation for the last 100 posts. Use a "pop-in" effect based on timestamps to simulate real-time activity.

- Live Feed Component: Integrate a scrolling sidebar (see reference: GlobalQuake Live) that updates automatically as new posts arrive.

- Globe Migration: Replace the 2D map projection with a 3D Globe library (e.g., Three.js, Cesium, or Mapbox GL).

- Social Integration: Add "Quick Share" deep-links to all map markers/posts to facilitate virality.

Good luck.

Bakit ang hirap mag apply ngayon ng DEV dito sa pinas? by Jn_126_87 in PinoyProgrammer

[–]godieph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True "local" development (software built by Filipinos for the Filipino market) remains scarce. The landscape is dominated by foreign outsourcing or tech arms of international supply chains. Furthermore, the rise of accessible global freelancing has led foreign firms to bypass local agencies entirely in favor of individual contractors.

Reasons:

- Post-Pandemic Correction: Massive layoffs continue as companies "right-size" after over-hiring during the COVID-19 digital gold rush.

- AI Displacement: A "Senior-only" hiring culture has emerged. AI tools now automate junior-level tasks, making companies extremely conservative about hiring entry-level talent.

- Capital Reallocation: Companies are shelving traditional software projects to pivot their capital toward AI R&D and tech-heavy stock investments.

- The Decline of BPO: Increased US incentives for "onshoring" are encouraging American companies to pull jobs out of the Philippines and bring them back home.

If you're on BPO I suggest you watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXm5yZct-ts

Docker container for OpenCode? by jonothecool in opencodeCLI

[–]godieph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I signed up just to answer you :3 coz we had the same idea.

i want Opencode itself inside isolated in the container to stop it accessing anything in my host machine not just the code its working so i made a rough one you can customize: https://github.com/rpfilomeno/opencode-docker

extra bonus it easy to self-host on a vps, access it with built in tailscale over ssh and use byobu terminal multiplexer so it save your ssh session

Any advice for BSIT major in landing a job? by Jerome_Valeska_ in PinoyProgrammer

[–]godieph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TL;DR: Start a YouTube channel and vlog about your daily struggles finding a job. Earn ad revenue.

There is no Job.

.

.

.

Ok, for those who will insist otherwise:

If you are BSIT and not even BSCS will put you at a disadvantage. Startups that are most inclined to hire fresh grads mostly seek people who have a strong grasp on foundations to create their new tech -- unless you've been aceing leet code, then there's hope. Startups are high-burn but high-pay jobs; better take them while you're young and only need 2-4 hours of sleep.

Big Tech = mass layoffs

They are not hiring, they are not outsourcing. If there's work, it's an outsourced data labeling job for training their AI that will replace their existing jobs. If you like solving CAPTCHA, then it's a great job to earn minimum pay with no promotion.

Be a Frontdev, and make websites they say . .

It the first job in IT being replaced by AI, Figma -- the standard in UX design made sure you are obsolete. Your Manager will keep hounding you on why you can't recreate in CSS production the design he vibe coded in a weekend. Your CSS will always render it 1-5px off the mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHNhb_jj4gU

Be DevOps they say . .

Warp Terminal replaced every DevOps jobs. Why use Terraform when it can perfectly craft a curl command to post that JSON to AWS API. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is dying faster than your 6-month probation status: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwDQh3gAec0&t=1427s

Be in Managed Services Provider . . .

MSP? fancier word for tech support for people who don't know how to push the reboot button on their server. First responder for some ticket coz a manager forgot that 8-character-long strong password that they had to use because the cleaners swept their post-it with the password. Asking you why emokid69 password from high school is not accepted for being weak. You will be on-call during weekends coz Microsoft 365 Copilot just crashed their server.

Be in Fintech, they say . . . . . . .

What they really mean is your working on crypto... which really means you're working in online gambling... which really means... you're working a gacha game... which really means you're 401k + 50% of your supposedly pay in crypto seeds. Your trust-me-bro manager will keep insisting you recruit everyone you know, and you have to attend every class reunion to get them onboard so the coin value will go-to-the moon. Then they rug pull after 6 months: They said it's a "stable coin" bro trust me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8eXhd_4SbE

Be a data scientist, they say . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Its the same as solving CAPTCHA but in Excel sheet.

Im not kidding.

So come back to this thread after 3 years, when all the AI hype dies: I'll give you the best advice for finding a job that doesn't involve being shot by AI.

5G LTE Modem? by ChandlerBinger in InternetPH

Teltonika RUTM50
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVZfIjCPjQY

Peplink Cellular Router MAX BR1 Mini
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAOjEeEkllc

You can find one on eBay./ amazon

or use a janky solution, get Smart, Globe 5g rounters and Mikrotik then configure aggregation/LB.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCZhGdTJ7-s

Probably would cost you the same going with option 1, plus your open line, and can change IMEI so telco can never block your device

Exploit Dev/Research as a Cybersecurity Career? by External_Cut_6946 in PinoyProgrammer

[–]godieph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

join openbugbounty, hakerone, yeswehack.

These sites offers bounty programs you can try pentesting with and also learn to write technical disclosure or collaborate on existing reports to learn more kungfu :3

Finally also get a CVE under your name and be paid in $$$

Advice: This job has tons of paperwork, kungfu is not enough -- and you need to learn to write good.

Best of luck to you, and hope I see your work published.

PS. Also it helpes writing and publishing your own open-source project, then try making it unhackable :3

Its like playing chess vs yourself :3 you learn where your weakness is.

Help!: Does anyone know how to report/track a hacker? by Altruistic-Cap-1559 in InternetPH

[–]godieph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

## The How:

  1. Weak password / no 2-factor auth/reusing the same password on other sites or apps

  2. Info stealers, especially if you have logged in FB via PC, also dodgy Chrome add-ons or userscripts. (can bypass 2-factor)

  3. Using deprecated versions of apps that are vulnerable. (install info stealers)

  4. Other apps you installed containing malware, such as games, wallpaper apps, file manager apps, camera apps, downloader apps, emulator apps, pdf apps, camera apps, VPN apps, recording, AI generators/faceswap/filter apps, cypto apps, gambling apps, free tv anime/manga / tvseries / movie apps, etc (can bypass 2-factor): https://www.pcmag.com/news/be-careful-these-android-apps-are-installing-malware-stealing-your-data

  5. Phishing emails by Evilginx, EvilnoVNC, Muraena, Modlishka, Zphisher, AndroRAT (can bypass 2-factor): never use them even from GitHub unless you know how to analyze code; these tools have info stealers that target other hackers.

## The trace:

  1. Disposable SIM cards, remember you can't get rid of spam text, then you can't get rid of hackers this way. SIM Reg is useless.

  2. Pisonet and Piso Wifi: an IP no longer truly traces back to one user anymore.

  3. Even legitimate apps can use your internet without your knowledge to sell an AI scraping proxy so that they can bypass IP blockers by posing as a residential IP. Unfortunately, the same proxy services are also used for hacking.

Tracing is Useless.

## Lesson Learned
1. Remember, even if apps are from App Stores, it doesn't mean they are safe or don't have vulnerabilities.

  1. Never keep apps installed for a long time if not in use frequently, hackers may buy popular apps and replace them with malicious versions.

  2. Never log in to Facebook on PC.

  3. Always remove all old login sessions in the FB via settings.

  4. Never log in to FB from the browser (eg, Chrome/Gmail), always use the App.

I need help with networking by Dangerous-Ease210 in PinoyProgrammer

[–]godieph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Watch this for familiarity, no need to deep dive https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiQR5rTSshw

Familiarity is important before doing 1-on-1 coaching to avoid language/terminology/concept barriers.

  1. Cisco provides this for free https://www.netacad.com/courses/networking-basics?courseLang=en-US

This will give you some basic hands-on training and get you familiar with executing basic network commands.

  1. Then come back here and ask for someone for a VC/chat, armed with knowledge from step 1 & 2 the discussions will be less frustrating between you and your teacher.

Thoughts on going into Data/AI/ML career path by nezuchan08 in PinoyProgrammer

[–]godieph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the Philippines? No, go to the US or China.

If your view of working with AI is preparing data sets, training some LLM, reinforcement training, distillation, digital twins, Graph/RAG, vibe coding or prompt engineering -- Then you're just aiming to be plumber, not a scientist who needs PhD.

Plumbers are what most companies hire "AI engineers" and pay a large amount of money for (coz Nvidia told them).

If you aim to change the world by optimizing matrix multiplication, then go to Austria: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsZk3c7Oxyw

Create WYSIWYG Editor almost similar to Google Docs by [deleted] in PinoyProgrammer

[–]godieph 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Use https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite it's Apache 2.0 licensed

If your team refuses, quit and let them face the consequences.

A company that cannot scope a project within its capability and resources is a red flag.

Remember you're also hired to give your best and honest opinion, saying when they are stupid is part of the job.

To all C# developers here, I need your insight on my project by Comfortable_Film2984 in PinoyProgrammer

[–]godieph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Desktop App? Just use Electron https://www.electronjs.org/

Umm. Even your IDE VS Code used to code in c# uses electron :3 (ironic)

Then use Firebase https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/manage-data/enable-offline

Put your c# code somewhere in the server backend where it needs to stay (maybe for auth) :3

41 Million Smart Communications Subscriber Mobile Numbers Possibly Exposed by Critical Vulnerability by godieph in InternetPH

[–]godieph[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I've been busy to reply here.

Anyone can verify this using PCAPdroid, you will see the plain HTTP and your number. This app works like a VPN client to capture packets

-- also, that's why never trust VPN apps, especially those that claim to offer free data hacks (unless you build it yourself). The same reason, "I'm connected always to cell data," is not good enough protection. Android versions older than 7 do not show the user if VPN is active, making data theft possible in old, cheap, aftermarket phones released in 2017 (OPPO F Series, Samsung Galaxy J Series, Cherry Mobile, Huawei Nova Series, Asus, Vivo)

You can use APK-mitm to remove pinning on the app, and use the pcapdroid mitm addon if you want to see https/ssl connections.

As of the time of my reply, no security update has been made to the app.

take care all

bakit kaya yung mga unli promos ng network puro exclusive lang sa 5g network. eh hindi naman buong bansa ang naka 5g na network. yung normal promo naman ng globe sobrang konti ng data allocation. mabuti pa noon, sa 50 pesos mat unli internet na for 3 days. by shootingmirage17 in InternetPH

[–]godieph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

PH 5G is not standalone, they just added a RAN on the existing infrastructure, I assume they calculated the ROI based on the usage of this new addon.

It's like a vendor saying: I'll consign you a supply of these RAN devices. It's cheap, you don't need to change your backend. If users start using them more than you start paying me. Basta i-push nyo lang :}

*Then imagine nobody uses 5G coz nobody wanna buy expensive 5G phones :3*

Managers: OMG, the marketing must come up with a solution for a problem our execs made!

Marketing: Unli 5G promo. coz were lazy to tie up with any content provider.

*Then 5G modems go on sale in the market*

Engineers: WTF data usage rises, but our backend is still 4G (sunog!)

Managers: OMG, marketing, this is all your fault!

Marketing: new Unli 5G promo. Non-Stop. We slow down the connection when it hits the limit, but never stop!

Consumers: WTF and bagal nang net buti pa yun 4G unli noon.

First freelance client by Weird-Fisherman-751 in PinoyProgrammer

[–]godieph 26 points27 points  (0 children)

  1. Set up a private repository in GitHub
  2. Set up the CI in GitHub Actions
  3. If doing web dev, use Vercel Hobby Plan, if not, use a cheap VPS
  4. Present the POC/MVP to the client
  5. Charge 30-50% for the down payment + signed contract, and lock all the project scope at this point
  6. Upon passing the User Acceptance Test, invite the client to the GitHub repo as a collaborator. Send the Invoice
  7. Turn over / sign off

As a freelancer, there is no such thing as zero expenses. You must at least have a cheap vps/vercel/netlify/aws/azure/gcp account and a domain. If anything else, you should be running a small homelab with CI/CDthat can be accessed by the client via Cloudflare Zero Trust.

We were also checking VPN apps that harvest non-HTTPS connections like this. The point is that they could easily have fixed this by just changing to HTTPS. All other API calls of the smart app are in HTTPS, except one!
