I want to share my own app that I develop using Biff. This app takes terms of webpages (currently only facebook) and allows you to ask questions about them: http://termsoverload.com (I want to add more questions and more webpages but the main UI is there)
I worked a lot on this. It has to be at least a little cool 😄
This is a very smart idea, congratulations. We all click through so many terms and conditions without thinking or reading them. It is overwhelming the volume of text they contain. Your tool could help us take back control over our rights regarding our own data and the terms on which we deal with our digital overlords. Thank you for your work.
I tried to build this kind of a tool before but for blockchain stuff and there actually was a backlash from node owners when I made it visible what they don't have and where they cut corners 😄 They were not liking the idea that they could be analyzed and compared between others of the same sort. So let's see how it goes this time :face_with_cowboy_hat:
And if you want to help me then you can DM me some of your proposals or actually add a question that you have 📝
re: blockchain, that's hilarious
And congrats on the launch!
> And congrats on the launch! What is a launch... I deployed it two weeks ago already xD But yeah, thanks a lot :))
I set up https://www.papertrail.com/ as Jacob suggested. I could see the port scanning had started right away. The firewall (`ufw`) works well — and putting a Digital Ocean firewall in front of the droplet really reduced the burden on the droplet firewall. ssh
and https
get through fine. FWIW.
Also, the DO uptime checks Jacob recommended are easy and effective. They have Slack integration built in.
secondly… what is the list of dependencies that are loaded (I presume from biff) that we have access to
It's a transitive dependency. if you use it in your app, it's best if you add it to deps.edn anyway just in case the transitive dependency changes. you can run clj -Stree
to see all the dependencies.
not sure where to find the exact line number but here: https://github.com/jacobobryant/biff/blob/master/example/src/com/example/ui.clj#L46
oh, yeah I should add it. thanks for pointing that out.
