A funny story on how a Russian guy registered on LinkedIn

Posted by | Uncategorized |
  • He was unable to pay with his bank cards so he used Bankoff (that stopped working within couple weeks after that) and transferred some USDT to it.
  • He bought USA Skype number, because only US Skype numbers able to receive SMS.
  • Created a USA clone of his London VPS Linux with installed Squid proxy service in a datacenter.
  • Updated A records of his domain with USA Linux IP address.
  • Opened LinkedIn in Ghrome browser using command chrome.exe --proxy-server=https://domain.com:3129
  • Used USA Skype phone number to register on LinkedIn.

Is not this a funny story?

Building QT 6.3.0 for Windows with OpenSSL and C++20

Posted by | QT | Tagged |

Now QT doesn’t like backslashes in configure.bat parameters. Also I updated vcvarsall.bat path and added -c++std c++20: and tried static build with -static option:

CALL "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" amd64
   
set "CMAKE_ROOT=E:\PFiles\cmake-3.21.3-windows-x86_64\bin"
set "NINJA_ROOT=E:\PFiles\ninja-win"
set "PERL_ROOT=E:\PFiles\Strawberry\perl\bin"
    
set PATH=%CMAKE_ROOT%;%PATH%
set PATH=%NINJA_ROOT%;%PATH%
set PATH=%PERL_ROOT%;%PATH%
set PATH=E:\PFiles\Python35;%PATH%
      
rem Check if the tools are in PATH
where perl.exe
where python.exe
where cmake.exe
where ninja.exe
  
set "MY_INSTALL_PATH=E:\Qt\Qt6.3.0\windows"
set CL=/MP

Building OpenSSL 3.0.2 with MSVC 2022

Posted by | Development environments | Tagged |

Download OpenSSL sources and extract them with Bash:

tar -xvzf /c/Users/D-Ef/Downloads/openssl-3.0.2.tar.gz

Download NASM, open x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2022 and run the following commands:

set PATH=%PATH%;E:\PFiles\nasm-2.15.05
where nasm
set PATH=%PATH%;E:\PFiles\Strawberry\perl\bin
where perl
set MY_INSTALL_DIR=E:\libs\OpenSSL
echo %MY_INSTALL_DIR%
perl Configure VC-WIN64A --prefix="%MY_INSTALL_DIR%" --openssldir="%MY_INSTALL_DIR%"

Dramatically annoying crash at std::thread and std::mutex destructors on Android

Posted by | Android, QT |

It is a long story that started here about 2 years ago. My first understanding was that it is a QT bug that was not fixed within this 2 years, of course (as a rule or usually), but a couple weeks ago I noticed that a similar crash happens on Samsung Galaxy devices:

Visual Studio 2022 uses Cascadia Mono font by default:

Waitable QTimer with C++20 coroutines

Posted by | C++, QT |

Found an example of overriding co_await operator and was able to implement my own version:

#include <chrono>
#include <coroutine>

//QTimer::singleShot accepts only milliseconds and a template version of the operator does not compile.
auto operator co_await(std::chrono::milliseconds d)
{
    class awaiter
    {
        std::chrono::milliseconds m_d;

    public:

        explicit awaiter(std::chrono::milliseconds d) : m_d(d) {}

        bool await_ready() const noexcept
        {
            return m_d <= std::chrono::milliseconds(0);
        }

        void await_suspend(std::coroutine_handle<> h) const noexcept
        {
            QTimer::singleShot(m_d, [h]() -> void
            {
                h.resume();
            });
        }

        void await_resume() const noexcept {}
    };

    return awaiter { d };
}

For those who did not work with QT, QTimer::singleShot simply calls the lambda on the current thread after a given interval.

Binance looses its orders

Posted by | Cryptocurrencies |

When I query KAVAUSDT order #561657676 with /api/v3/order?symbol=KAVAUSDT&orderId=561657676&timestamp={{timestamp}}&signature={{signature}} that normally should return

{
    "symbol": "KAVAUSDT",
    "orderId": 561657676,
    "orderListId": -1,
    "clientOrderId": "ce86e0a9-85a8-4d9b-99b1-b08e227e2464",
    "price": "4.80700000",
    "origQty": "10.00000000",
    "executedQty": "0.00000000",
    "cummulativeQuoteQty": "0.00000000",
    "status": "CANCELED",
    "timeInForce": "GTC",

    "updateTime": 1632184233620,
    "isWorking": true,
    "origQuoteOrderQty": "0.00000000"
}

I periodically get

{
    "code": -2013,
    "msg": "Order does not exist."
}

see a video on YouTube that demonstrates this effect.
