Webminal (www.webminal.org) | Lead Front End Engineer | 100% Remote | $0USD,15% ownership

We launched in 2011 and so far helped more than 350,000 users with our platform. I'm looking for NextJS/React Enginner to lead the front end effort. I can't pay for this position hence I'm offering 15% ownership for this role. Few months back we decided to re-write site and we have partially completed NextJS/React with the help of freelancer. If you are interested, please reach-out to efgadmin AT webminal DOT org

did you use TWS API or Web portal API for IBKR?

I run quite a few FOSS project and I'd be happy to get some help on moving forward or reviving these projects. The reason why I ask for help is pretty simple, I have too many things to handle as a solo dev!

1. www.webminal.org 10+ year old side project. I tried to make it monetized without much success. Now I got sponsors for server. That covers financial burden to keep servers running. I'm primarily looking for front-end dev to improve this project.

2. If you are interested in python and automation: https://gitlab.com/giis/distroQA/ This project, it does OS image testing with Docker containers.

3. If you interested in Android app development: In 2016, I developed some Rooted(TWRP) Android apps. Seems like they removed from playstore now. I think these apps can be revived and uploaded to F-Droid.org Some references here:

spacemachine -> Use SDcard as your internal storage to install and run apps. Insert SDcard into any mobile and run apps stored in SDcard http://www.giis.co.in/spacemachine_userguide.pdf Parted4Android -> Port of GNU-parted app with an interesting UI. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtHSiNQ-9z4 Link2Cloud -> Runs apps directly from Cloud. Uses sshfs and mount cloud account to user mobile. Uses firebase. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpmVVDBpsCE

4. Btrfs CI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdLx4asGUME Tests BTRFS filesystem with kernel and update results on Github.

5. Finally any PR contributions to https://github.com/Lakshmipathi/dduper

I happy to discuss quite a few ideas on improving these project with you and Other than these, I do have few other FOSS project: Please have a look at http://giis.co.in/Lakshmipathi.G_md.html If you like to collaborate with me on any of these project, please feel to drop a message (see email on my profile). Thanks!

Yes, its part of simple introduction to rust beginners presentation where I used this picture to explain ownership concepts.

Yes, I thought rollbacks will be much easier in case of data loss. :sob:

I don't know whether my 10+ year side project with 225,000 users(www.webminal.org) gone forever! :(

I have backup snapshots but its stored in ovh itself :( hoping for a miracle!

Article points out Gitlab account olgired2017 (https://gitlab.com/olgired2017). I think it will be interesting if GitLab shares his/her list active session details like ipaddress, browser, date and time from their site logs (profile/active_sessions).

Before some western-media starts their well known statement like "India is a poor country and they need to focus on their healthcare, education etc before wasting money on Space projects like this".

They need to examine themselves, "Have we ever said above statement when our country lobbying for multi-million/billion dollar defence deals from India?"

>* Everyone knows Uber and Ola don't own their fleet so who'll be accountable?

Who says so? Have you read about tie-up with Tata for EV ? https://www.indiatimes.com/auto/current/tata-nano-electric-m...

Try to understand ground reality before making false claims.

Btw, elections over just ~15 days back, if this just PR stunt, it makes more sense announce it during 7 week long election not after that.

I had terrible experience with Gumroad (more info: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13139000) and even pinged you on quora: https://qr.ae/TUrSmp No response what so ever. I still believe Gumroad provides one of arrogant customer support I ever received.

If you have 'startup' with so many unhappy customer - its expected to fail. https://gumroad.pissedconsumer.com/review.html Focus more on being open, transparent and being kind. Good luck!

I went to IBM(India) interview sometime in 2011, after leaving GlusterFS (Red Hat). Interview went well, during final call with management. I was asked to stop working on Open Source during weekends or off-hours even though the IBM project and my Open Source work has nothing in common.

I said, "I thought, IBM support Open Source right?" his response, "Yes, but that's another team"

I decided to call-off the interview after that.

Interestingly, Jio needs 4G supported phone and it won't work with 3G handset. So other (ex: airtel,vodafone etc) telecom operators still keep higher prices for 3G handset!

3g Data Mobile Recharge Plans: Rs. 298 - 28 days - 1 GB 3G Data. Thats $5 for 1GB of data with 28 day validity.

But If you look at their 4G data plan it will be completely different thanks to Jio.

My first reaction after logging into unknown *nix machines.

then check appropriate logs or dmesg etc

RIP Stephen Hawking

I'm one of those million of lives you have inspired. I brought A Brief History of Time with my first salary. Thank you for everything.

Here is the course 'authors' page https://www.udemy.com/user/niharika-23/?src=sac&kw=master%20... Interestingly no domain name or author name.

thanks for pointing out, I'll update the resume this weekend.

I've around +12 years of experience and my resume is one and half page. Half of that will be opensource contribution not related to any organization. If recruiter needs more info, we can always discuss that during interview itself :-)

Edit: If anyone curious about the format/layout, here its: http://www.giis.co.in/LakshmipathiG.pdf

I didn't notice that, thanks

I'm running free Linux terminal site for 7 years now. Before that written few open-source tools.

Receiving a mail from user with simple message like "Thanks for the your effort" will give great source of energy and motivation to carry on.

Because from time to time, like everything some doubts arise like "is this project still useful to others?". Thank you notes will help to clear those doubts :D

Recent Redhat decision may also be related to their investment in Storage products Ceph (~175 million in 2014) and GlusterFS (~125million in 2011) not just about stability of btrfs.

As someone who previously experienced with distributed storage like emc-Isilon and also fuse-based glusterfs, btrfs has huge potential for enterprise storage. It does also need more effort on testing front at this moment. hoping that soon btrfs will become default fs for most Linux distros.

As someone who worked with outsourced IT services companies, I highly recommend you to join product based companies. Most of the work done by Indian body shops are not great,they focus on managing legacy codes and some maintenance works.

If I get a time-machine, I'll go back in time and avoid the mistake of joining services-based IT companies. :-)

> I've now learned they will be soon be releasing a commercial product that is strongly related to the open-source project I submitted.

Is it someone from segment informed you about this upcoming commercial product? How did you learned about this info? What if there is no such plans or upcoming product?

Are you sure about their terms & conditions? Some companies include special clause to own or implement these ideas on their own.

I hope someone from segment will address your concerns.

Seems like when you provide free terminal, some user may be just curious to try/test it out and some user wants to bring it down :)

There is also another command 'paste'.

Example: Created two files (1.txt and 2.txt)

[efg@fedori ~]$ cat 1.txt

file1: line1

file1: line2

[efg@fedori ~]$ cat 2.txt

file2: line1

file2: line2

In order to merge the lines of these two files we can use paste:

[efg@fedori ~]$ paste 1.txt 2.txt

file1: line1 file2: line1

file1: line2 file2: line2

Also check out 'man fold'

Looks interesting, anyone tried these steps? Did it work for you?

Did they actually decrypted the files after getting money from victims?

It would be interesting, if some white-hat security researcher, pays the $300 money and gets the solution (reverse engineering) . Make its available for free to everyone :)

Someone already has few findings: https://gist.github.com/rain-1/989428fa5504f378b993ee6efbc0b...

thanks for the link, will check

I'd like to give it a try later today with Wine under Linux VM. Anyone know the download link for wannacry?

I'll update the findings here :)

With 60+ countries agreed to attend the event, Its interesting to note: India refused to take part on this OBOR project. China's arch rival Japan sent a official team, but India refused to attend the submit.

China repeatedly blocked India's move to Ban terrorist Azad[1], blocked their NSG bid and their flip-flop on Arunachal. so India prefers to stay away from China-led project.

Russia is watchful about rising Chinese influence in their regions. Once they used to be major partner and China played minor role. Now the trend reversed.Russia knows that too.
