Javascript is required for the Captcha
-
2020-01-06 at 8:36 PM UTCIt would be nice if you used some custom code to do the Captcha Lanry.
I have made my own and would be willing to post the code if your interested in implementing it. It is written in Java and creates images of random numbers in which each digit is of different size, slight rotation, and color.
Let me know if you are interested Lanry. -

2020-01-08 at 9:40 AM UTCYeah, I've wanted to get rid of recaptcha for a while now. I hate loading jedigoogle scripts. The main appeal is the annoying collaborative CV shit that makes intentional spam a pain (as opposed to actually determining user humanity). But I'd be willing to swap it out for sure.
Don't want to pull in the whole java ecosystem, but if you can do it in python that'd be fine. PIL/Pillow is already a dependency, although if you wanted to use something different I wouldn't mind.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

I appreciate your reply Lanry. The code I have could be used on the serverside only.
Let me know when you are ready to use it. -
2020-01-08 at 10:56 PM UTCThe thing about Java is it is slow as shit and not at all lightweight. To run a Java VM on a server, even to do something lightweight, is a serious nuisance and risk* and not something sensible webmasters want to go near. Lanny's code here is just about all Python, with some node.js used for utility, and I don't think he wants to bring a giant indian elephant into the room to shit all over that.
*Yeah yeah, docker and all that.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2020-01-09 at 1:08 AM UTCI could come up with some Python code maybe.

yea, a new and unknown poster wants to inseminate his/her codes straight jnto the server to impregnate it with who knows what.
will lanny be such a code prostitute ?
stay tuned tommorow.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

In theory the JVM is pretty fast if you count out startup time, which you can for something like a website where you have a long running process that spins off some kind of concurrency mechanism for each request. JVM GC and JIT are actually really solid. Like if you look at raw benchmarks netty is one of the fastest webservers around. The issue is that the ecosystem is such dogshit and the economics of it are such that sizable projects end up being horrible and slow.
Also definitely yes, ISS has enough moving parts as it is. Definitely not planning on bringing in another language and dependency management and build tooling around that. -

Not to mention he's pushing for javascript, a notoriously unsecure programming language.
When you guys are ready for a website that doesn't rely on shitty, hand written, questionable code made by random people assortments of people with skill varying from bad to okay head over to newtotse.com -
