The adoption of cross-platform frameworks like React Native or Flutter brings me full support for creating applications which operate across iOS and Android platforms.

Based on evidence here, s..t-posting on forums seems to be the new use-case.

No end of dweebs drive by with the latest "helpful" pith generated by some LLM.

Part of the reason...

I, for one, am sick and tired of every Tom, Dick, and Harry requiring a separate app for everything. It has gotten to the point of having to scroll through pages of icons to locate whatever app you need for a particular occasion. Plus, every app stays open consuming limited memory. And then there are the constant reminders to update. And if you ever have to reset your phone (seems to be the default recommendation to fix any problem) you have to spend hours reinstalling everything. Far better to have one app (a browser). Of course you then have the problem of scrolling through all the links to get at the website you need. But at least a link takes up less space, and you don't have to manage updates for a website.

Developing apps for iOS and Android efficiently requires the right strategy and tools. Using cross-platform frameworks like Flutter or React Native helps save time and effort by allowing developers to write a single code base for both platforms. Optimizing performance, focusing on user-friendly design, and following platform-specific guidelines ensure a smooth experience. Regular testing on different devices and using cloud-based testing tools help detect and fix issues early. By following best practices, you can build high-quality apps that work seamlessly on both platforms.

In your opinion, what are industries use/benefit the most from automation, specifically intelligent automation?

The cost of Stable Token Development varies based on factors like blockchain selection, security features, compliance requirements, and customization. Consulting with a development team can give a more precise estimate.

We stopped making apps and moved back to web pages tuned to mobile users.

Part of the reason was Apple's draconian and costly app system. Put on the web and we're done. No dedicating a person to shepherd the app through the Apple gauntlet.

Developing apps for both iOS and Android can be challenging but rewarding. The key is to use cross-platform frameworks like React Native or Flutter, which allow you to develop app iOS and Android simultaneously. This not only saves time but also ensures a consistent user experience across both platforms. Focusing on adaptive design principles can further enhance usability and performance.

What are your thoughts on best practices for tackling this?

You can also use SHDocVw or System.Diagnostics name spaces from C# to interact with an open web browser, or connect programmatically to an existing browser window using the UI Automation API. Of course, for deeper control over Chrome, you may need the Chrome DevTools Protocol.

Bitcoin and Ethereum are the biggies.

Here's a comprehensive list.

Guidance?

Maybe you should read your topic and post before pressing submit. That would be a starting point.

To attach Selenium to an already open Chrome browser in C#, launch Chrome manually with debugging enabled using chrome.exe --remote-debugging-port=9222 --user-data-dir="C:\SeleniumChromeProfile", then use ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions(); options.DebuggerAddress = "localhost:9222"; IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options); to connect. This prevents LinkedIn from detecting automation and avoids re-login issues.

Can anyone provide some guidance?

For someone claiming to be an "SEO Executive", you seem remarkably inept at doing even the most basic web search.

But then again, most of your posts look like bait for spam.

The stable token development cost ranges from $10,000 to $150,000+, depending on factors like blockchain platform, smart contract complexity, and compliance needs. A basic stablecoin costs around $10K-$30K, while an enterprise-grade token with auditing and security features can exceed $60K-$150K.

Hii
I am a developer working on a blockchain MVP development. I want to add MVP features to the app, but I am not sure where to start. Can anyone provide some guidance?

Thank You

The Tru mp coin looks to have cost millions. Do you have a King that will back your coin?

Can anyone provide some guidance?

Thanks, as of using document complete I was using it and it is where I try to find the elements but it doesn't find any.

You can try it on your end with the same url and see if you will be able to fill any of the fields automatically

To allow a user to change the name of a tab dynamically at runtime, you can implement the functionality by using a TabControl, a ComboBox, a TextBox, and a Button. When the user selects a tab from the ComboBox, types a new name into the TextBox, and clicks the Button, the selected tab's name will change. In the button's click event, you retrieve the selected tab index from the ComboBox, get the new name from the TextBox, and update the corresponding tab's title using tabControl1.TabPages[selectedIndex].Text = newTabName. This approach allows for seamless tab renaming based on user input. Ensure proper validation, such as checking if a tab is selected and the new name is not empty.

To automate input fields using a WebBrowser control in VB.NET, ensure that the page is fully loaded by handling the DocumentCompleted event. In your code, you can navigate to the desired URL and then, within the DocumentCompleted event, use the GetElementById method to access the input field. Once the element is identified, you can set its value using the SetAttribute method. It's important to check if the element exists (If inputElement IsNot Nothing) before setting its value to avoid errors. If you continue facing issues, ensure the element ID is correct and consider using tools like Selenium for more complex automation if the WebBrowser control doesn't meet your needs.

you're encountering a syntax error while trying to create a virtual environment in Python, likely due to not having the correct directory selected. To fix this, open the command prompt (CMD), navigate to the desired folder using the cd command (e.g., cd path\to\your\folder), and then run the command python -m venv openai-env to create the virtual environment. Regarding the general framework question, you're looking to build a GUI (Graphical User Interface), and for Python, Tkinter is a good option for desktop applications. If you're aiming to integrate a GUI into a website, frameworks like Flask or Django for the backend and HTML/CSS/JavaScript for the frontend would be ideal. You can find templates and GitHub repositories for both Python GUI and web-based applications to help you get started.

To interact with an already open browser in C# using Selenium, launch Chrome with the --remote-debugging-port flag (e.g., chrome.exe --remote-debugging-port=9222). Then, in your C# code, use ChromeOptions with the DebuggerAddress set to the same port (127.0.0.1:9222). This allows you to connect to the open browser and automate actions without triggering login prompts or the "controlled by automated test software" message. This method bypasses the need for a new browser session and maintains the session's state, including authentication.

i have this code worked for me. thanks for the idea.

Make sure you're using the correct SMTP settings for Gmail in your C# code (smtp.gmail.com, port 587 for TLS or 465 for SSL). Ensure that "Less Secure Apps" is enabled or use an App Password if 2FA is on. Check if firewall/antivirus is blocking the connection and verify IMAP/SMTP is enabled in Gmail settings.

It sounds like you're having a bit of trouble with Gmail's SMTP in C#. One thing to double-check is the use of the correct SMTP settings:

SMTP server: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 587 for TLS or 465 for SSL
Encryption: TLS/SSL
Authentication: Your full Gmail address and password (or an app-specific password if 2FA is enabled)
If you're still facing issues, consider using an app password if you have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled, or alternatively, look into using OAuth 2.0 for more secure and reliable authentication.

This just in: Ghostty was released with full source and cross platform.

Kafka-King is a cross-platform Kafka GUI client that offers a comprehensive set of features for Kafka cluster management. It allows users to view and configure broker and topic settings, consume messages from specified topics with customizable parameters, and manage topic creation and deletion, including batch operations. It supports a range of authentication methods like PLAIN, SSL, SASL, Kerberos, and sasl_plaintext. Kafka-King also provides statistics on message counts, offsets, and lag for each consumer group, as well as detailed partition information.

I'm going to skip all the back and forth and flat out ask what we need to do here. Yes, this is all about stopping robots. But all is not lost. You should share what you are actually trying to achieve since it's possible there's something in the Linkedin API that you should be using instead.

Again, I see nothing broken here as it's all about maintaining security against robots.

How do I establish an open connection to an open web browser in C#?

In a Microsoft C# program using a Visual Studio Code I am using the following namespaces:

 using OpenQA.Selenium;
 using OpenQA.Selenium.Chrome;
 using OpenQA.Selenium.Support.UI;

After I get a string variable, "url", assigned with a URL of a website page, I use the following commands which successfully opens a browser window and loads the web site:

 IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
 driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(url);

But this opens a chrome browser which is denoted somewhere as being a "test" session. It somehow knows it was launched from a program. And, since I am using this program to automate some interactions with linkedin, this information is passed along to linkedin which prompts me that it requires I login. This creates a cascading seriies of events that are difficult to automate including using my cell as a means of verification.

Here, let me show you what I am up against. This screen shot:
https://www.likablelogic.org/images/Direct/01.png
shows that the web browser that my code launches through selenium commands has a label on it, "Chrome is bring controlled by automated test software". Yes, and I wrote this automated test software.

What is most annoying is the fact that there is no log in to the session which is done automatically when I normally launch a browser. Here see this screen shot
https://www.likablelogic.org/images/Direct/02.png
where you can see that the user icon is this nondescript non-person.
I made a video to demonstrate how pointless and …

i don't know if u find solution suggest me to.

Who thought up that project name. Reminds me of Kafkaesque times.

This project is a cross-platform Kafka GUI client. A star would be appreciated to support the open-source effort by the author. Thank you!

Hi to all, I already solved this problem. Thanks!

While I'm conversant with this, your last sentence is incongruous with your first two paragraphs. Why is that?

That aside, after decades of development work which is not all software the answer became clear. Ready? "Are you willing to pay?"
That is, while SEI Level 5 can be obtained, can you afford it?

Payment can be money, time and leaving the technical debt for later work.

I'm currently working on a project where technical debt has started to pile up, and it's beginning to affect the stability of our software. However, the team is under pressure to deliver new features quickly, and we’re struggling to strike a balance.

What strategies or workflows have you used to address technical debt without halting feature development? Are there specific tools or techniques that helped your team prioritize and fix these issues efficiently?"

This approach presents a real-world challenge and invites practical, experience-based solutions.

I program only desktop/shell apps for Windows and I use Visual Studio Code (free) and python (free) with wxpython (free) as the target GUI. Do you see a pattern here?

I defer to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/python/tutorial-working-with-python-in-visual-studio-step-01-create-project?view=vs-2022

It is however possible this isn't a feature in VS2019. I will share I picked up VS2022 for under 50$ recently so that isn't the budget buster it used to be.

Can you give us the actual query in pseudo code with field names? I think we can figure it out by first eliminating the vb.NET syntax. I typically use a SQL management console to get the underlying query before I add in the gory code details.

Unfortunately I don’t know VB.net. However, the way I would do it in my language of choice is to split the search string by spaces into an array of words. According to a Google search, this should accomplish that for you. Then, I would loop through the array of individual words looking for each one in my database. (Or, looping through the array to build an SQL query to search for any of the words individually.) Good luck!

Hi, a pleasant day to all.

I just wanna ask if it is possible to search any string or keyword inside my Access Database using the search in my VB.net application? Most of the tutorials only teach on how to search the table using an exact keyword or input.

Example: I want to search the name JOHN SMITH. To be able to search that name, I need to type the whole name because if I only type JOHN there is zero result. If I only type SMITH there is also no result.

What I want is if type any of the two, there is a result. Even if just type "OHN" or "SMI" the name would be still in the result and wont return a no record found.

Is this possible? Thank you in advance.

By the way here is my code:

Private Sub btnSearch_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btnSearch.Click
    If txtSearch.Text = "" Then
        Call notFound()
        Exit Sub
    Else
        AdminRecordBindingSource.Filter = "(Convert(OfficeOrigin, 'System.String') LIKE '" & txtSearch.Text & "')" &
        "OR (OfficeOrigin LIKE '" & txtSearch.Text & "') OR (Particulars LIKE '" & txtSearch.Text & "') OR (ReceivedBy LIKE '" & txtSearch.Text & "')
        OR (DateReceived LIKE '" & txtSearch.Text & "') OR (StartTime LIKE '" & txtSearch.Text & "') OR (ActionTaken LIKE '" & txtSearch.Text & "')
         OR (FinishTime LIKE '" & txtSearch.Text & "') OR (TotalTime LIKE '" & txtSearch.Text & "') OR (Remarks LIKE '" & txtSearch.Text & "')"

        If AdminRecordBindingSource.Count <> 0 Then …

Environment is Windows 11 and Visual Studio 2019 using Python. I am a Python novice.
The goal is a project with multiple dialogs. Not a web project, just many dialogs.
From VS some options are Django, Flask, Bottle, Jade, and more. Searches for each of those provide simplistic descriptions without the details that are needed.
Which project type do you recommend?

RAM (at least 4GB), a mid-range processor, and support for the latest Android version. Popular options for testing include the Google Pixel series or OnePlus devices, as they offer good performance and compatibility with Android development tools.

If you're looking to test your Java apps on Android, I'd recommend starting with a phone that offers a good balance of performance and affordability. The Google Pixel 6a is a great choice since it offers a clean, stock Android experience and regular updates directly from Google, ensuring compatibility with the latest Java APIs. If you’re looking for something more budget-friendly, the Samsung Galaxy A52/A53 or OnePlus Nord 2 are also solid options with good performance and reliable software updates. These phones will give you a smooth testing experience without breaking the bank!

Hope this helps!

It doesn't really play great role in what physical Android device you check your app because you have already checked it in several virtual devices in Android Studio / Tools / Device Manager (I am sure other IDEs have similar functionality)

Are you sure about this? I haven't run a Java app on Android in over a decade. Back then and maybe now the requirement to install a Java Runtime was asking too much of the end-user.

Are you sure you can't make this a web site or native app?

Commercial real estate analytics? Funny you should ask because your profile seems to say you would be writing blogs and more about this.

HOWEVER, there are now many lawsuits over AI Rent Rate Setting.

What model of Android phone would you start with for testing a Java app? Is there one phone of which you can say, "Well, it works fine on here. There’s a good chance it’ll work on 75% of other Android phones and tablets"?

Hi everyone,

I’m curious to learn how others in the commercial real estate space leverage property analytics for better decision-making. Whether it’s identifying growth markets, assessing risk, or optimizing portfolio performance, I’d love to hear your insights and strategies.

At Leni, we’re exploring innovative ways to analyze commercial properties, but I know there’s always more to learn from the community.

How do you incorporate analytics into your workflow? Are there specific tools or metrics you rely on? Let’s discuss!

Looking forward to your thoughts.
