Enabling stack traces in Delphi: [WayBack] Getting started · MahdiSafsafi/DebugEngine Wiki · GitHub:
Using DebugEngine stack trace when error occurs:
All what you need to do is to include DebugEngine.HookException unit into your project. And each time an error occurs, you will be able to get the stack trace from the point where the error occurred.
uses
DebugEngine.HookException;
{...}
procedure Foo;
begin
try
DoSomething;
except
on E: Exception do
ShowMessage(E.StackTrace);
end;
end;
You can get similar functionality with JCL.
Via [WayBack] Why Delphi (like other developer environments) natively not included full call stack for every exception? Or if this is possible, please tell me how (wi… – Jacek Laskowski – Google+

Having mainly used ssh as a means to connect to a shell on remote machines and occasionally a manual port forward.
I never noticed autossh where you can automate the ssh logon process to keep permanent port forwards up and running. Cool!
It’s on my research list now, as this will be useful probably sooner than later:
My initial impression is that autossh is a wrapper around the regular ssh client that allows reconnection upon communication failures.

Still an interesting thought: [WayBack] Maybe we need a vote here but personally I’d like the next update from Emb to NOT contain any new features at all – just a huge bundle of bug fixes. We… – Chris Pimlott – Google+.
Especially the comments in it are well worth re-reading.
By now a new Delphi version should have been out, so I am curious how the balance between bug fixes and new features was.
Edit: Fixed bugs are features, so in my opinion Embarcadero should release only bug-fix updates and upgrades for at least two years.

Problem with new features is that they usually come with new bugs. Therefore new features take away developer capacity from fixing old bugs twice.

Not sure when this happened but the CIDR list is no more [WayBack] https://www.whatsapp.com/cidr.txt:

WhatsApp team
In the past it was the place to get the CIDR so you could either block or allow WhatsApp traffic: [earlier WayBack]
It is still widely cited as way to regulate WhatsApp traffic, for instance at these places:
Time to find an automated way to get the replacement list. Maybe the below helps (via [WayBack] Block facebook messenger and whatsApp on Dlink router – Super User)

Try https://gitlab.com/api/v4/users?username=??? where ??? is your username. This will only work if you are already logged into gitlab.
Alternatively,
- go to https://gitlab.com/profile/account and copy your Private token.
- Then run the following command from a bash-like terminal:
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: AAAA" https://gitlab.com/api/v4/users?username=BBBB
where AAAA is your private token and BBBB is your username.
Source: [WayBack] [solved]Where is my user ID in GitLab.com? – HowTo – GitLab Community Forum
Works:
- https://gitlab.com/users/sign_in
- https://gitlab.com/api/v4/users?username=wiert
Via the ID, you can find the issues assigned to the user:
