| Posted: 09 Apr 2018 02:57 PM PDT I used to use https://mapzen.com/ which is no longer an option, recently had to make a switch and i chose google maps (which is less likely to go out of bussiness i guess). Im making ~100-1000 geolocation requests/day, ~10-100 directions api requests/day). The website making like 100-200 euro/month and if read this right:
Im supposed to get a $10,000/year premium plan for my app even though i stay below the free standard plan quota? It seems that I wrongly assumed that I'm just going to have to pay $0.50/1000 additional requests. When did this change and are there any alternatives? edit: too late to change the title now i guess :/ [link] [comments] | ||
| What are the pros and cons of being a full stack developer? Posted: 09 Apr 2018 12:56 PM PDT Hey r/webdev, I was wondering if you all could provide some insight into the day and life of being a full stack developer? What are your days like? What are the pros and con of being a full stack developer? What is your life/work relationship like? Has your lifestyle changed? Thanks! Appreciate some insight. [link] [comments] | ||

| Client asked about SEO, need advice Posted: 09 Apr 2018 04:20 AM PDT Hey, a client (my very first client) I built a website for noticed a competitor very well ranked and wants to improve his rank as well. He asked me if I could make that happen and of course I said yes. But I am a bit lost. They don't want to build a blog/news feed, so I figured that the only thing I can do is really optimize the html code (headings structure, meta tags etc) and search for good keywords. I feel that it's not enough though, am I overthinking it? Do you guys have any advice or similar experiences? Thanks a lot! [link] [comments] | ||
| Tell me sites that block people that have adblockers installed (like Forbes.com) Posted: 09 Apr 2018 09:42 AM PDT I'm building a small app to scan sites that block people who block ads. If that's a bit of a word soup then this Forbes example should make things clearer: https://i.imgur.com/ZDWGgSO.png I need a list of sites that do this, but it's surprisingly hard to find. What other sites do this that you know of? Big or small. [link] [comments] | ||
| Leverage browser caching on a serverless static site? Posted: 09 Apr 2018 03:35 PM PDT I've recently built several simply static sites that are hosted on Firebase, but they are all getting dinged with "Leverage browser caching" on PageSpeed Insights. Is there anyway to fix this issue since I'm not using an apache or nginix server of any type? Thanks! [link] [comments] | ||

| What is your most efficient Web App workflow? Posted: 09 Apr 2018 01:16 AM PDT Let's say you need to create a service very quickly. Do you start building it from scratch? Do you use a Boilerplate? I'd like to hear what some of you use to get up and running with a project. Let's say something with:

| Handling traffic / bandwidth for hosting audio files for simple playback Posted: 09 Apr 2018 01:39 PM PDT Hi! I'm still cutting my teeth with personal projects and have some questions regarding one I'm looking to build for myself. If I'm working with compressed audio files for an HTML5 audio player- ogg and the fallback for non-HTML5 browsers- is it a bad idea to host a relatively short audio file directly on my server? This is not a project that will be smothered with traffic, rather just a small thing for a portfolio project to demonstrate some ideas. I'm just concerned that this is a bad way to go about requesting an audio file over and over again. It seems like a lot of AJAX calls repeating themselves and I'm looking for another way of approaching this. If I wanted to provide playback for, say, 5 different audio files ranging between 2-6 minutes each, do you think I should be hosting the files elsewhere and not local to the page's server? I know this is kind of broad but I'm sort of reaching here for a way to describe the issue I foresee with being way inefficient with requesting said audio. In particular, I'm building a ambience playback engine: handful of field recordings of train cars, coffee shops, plus a few files of white + pink noise. I use sounds like this constantly when programmings and I've always wanted to build something like this for myself, as well as to share with other people. Any ideas would be yuuuge, appreciate it. Thanks! [link] [comments] | ||
| How honest should I be about my experience when applying for jobs? Posted: 09 Apr 2018 01:34 PM PDT I don't want to talk myself out of a position, but I obviously don't want to lie either. I've made several websites and I know how to program pretty well… but there are certain aspects of my job that are only delegated to the senior developers. Things like hosting/database/server stuff, dealing with clients, pushing a site to production, and gathering requirements are all things they don't want me near. Basically… I can program a site, and that's about it. How unappealing is this going to be to employers as I look for another position? Should I be upfront about my experience? My portfolio looks pretty impressive for what it is, and I'm worried that I might get hired with the expectation that I'll already know everything right out of the gate. [link] [comments] | ||
| What is your preferred Wordpress development stack? Posted: 09 Apr 2018 01:23 PM PDT I have a client that would prefer to stay in the Wordpress environment for their new site and it's been a little while since I've developed in WP. In the past I've used roots.io which still looks promising, but I was curious about what other technologies I should look into to make the process as streamlined as possible. [link] [comments] | ||
| Those who have a career in the webdev field.. I have a few questions. Posted: 09 Apr 2018 01:22 AM PDT Depending on the day, I will tell you I'm a decent programmer. About average I would say. If I put my mind to it, I can create it. Anything that stumps me, or anything I can't figure out, I find a way, but when it comes to actually joining a team, I'm scared shitless. Everything I know, is self taught, so I'm worried that the way I do things will not be accepted in the 'real world' but my dream is to be a 'real' programmer, I just can't get over my anxiety. I don't want to present myself as a loser that doesn't have a college degree wanting to get in a field that revolves around a college degree. I also live in a pretty small town, there isn't any large companies that will hire entry level programmers, so I'm kind of left with the option of work at home. Before we get into that, I would like to ask a few questions..
College is kind of out the question. I'm a cable guy (35-40k a year) providing for myself, my two siblings (almost old enough to have a job, I CANT WAIT!!) and a girlfriend that has a shit job. Does that cut me out of the game? Is there any advise you can give me? A point in the right direction would be perfect and greatly appreciated. [link] [comments] | ||
| In a really, really tough spot, any advice appreciated Posted: 09 Apr 2018 01:14 PM PDT Hi everybody, I'll try to keep this as short as possible but it won't make sense without some context. I'm a junior developer. Basically, I've been working very closely with my mentor for several months now. We had been rebuilding an app and website that he created years ago. He told me he wanted to start monetizing the app, and if it did well enough, he would hire me as a web developer. It it didn't succeed, he said I would have enough experience that I could put on my resume to get a job somewhere else. I was working on the website and he was rebuilding the app. I knew he had some psychological issues (PTSD) but it seemed like he had things under control. There were no warning signs or red flags. Last week, I needed to speak with him about an important matter and requested a meeting. He was very irritated and I had no idea why. Four hours after my initial contact, I emailed him again. I was on my phone and all of a sudden, I couldn't log into Slack, and all of my tasks in Jira for the project had been unassigned. He rescinded my admin/creator rights on Bitbucket as well. I had been working on this project for nearly three months, full-time, most weeks well over 40 hours a week, for $500 a month. I believed in the product, in him, and had hoped it would lead to employment. He's cut off all communication with me and I don't even understand why. Instead of working on side projects and my own portfolio site, I have been spending all of my time and energy on his project. So now I feel like I'm starting over and really need to find employment soon but have no proof that I worked under a senior developer for nine months and no code to show them. I learned so much from him and got experience working on a team (well, two people) on a large project but can't prove it. I'm working on my portfolio site and projects now but don't know what to do in terms of my resume and/or future interviews. I can't believe this happened. I'm just devastated and shocked. As I stated in the title, any advice would be greatly appreciated! [link] [comments] | ||
| How was working in small companies for you? Posted: 09 Apr 2018 12:22 PM PDT I'd like to know about your experience working as a developer in smaller companies (like 10 or less employees). I'm curious because I'm trying to figure out if the work conditions at my current workplace are just normal or not. As you could have imagined I'm young (21 yo) and at my first work experience as a junior developer. In the office I work "development" is an abstract and very personal word. Software is our core business and we are 2 developers (with me being the junior one, ofc), 3 employees working at help desk\data maintenance and 2 bosses. Everyone but the other dev and I do not understand how you maintain and develop a software. Refactoring and re-designing features is always seen as a loss of time and as something you have to do "when you have some free time" as it was something you can do without focusing on it. Our focus changes every day since it's always related to what the boss needs on that particular day. You always have to follow his needs. Priorities shifts every day, going 100% on something because the boss needs it and then forgetting about that thing the very next day because the boss is working on something else. This makes impossible for us to have a release\sprint system (even though we use source control) since you can't plan your work as it changes almost everyday. We also don't have a QA process since we have a new deploy almost every day (and waiting some time in order to complete a QA process and get to a release point is just unacceptable) which leads us to waste even more time running after bugs. "Developing" is seen as something you do when you don't have anything else to do, for example if there's a client's machine ready to be set up we need to stop coding and focus on that. If there's some time left, then we can focus on coding. When the other dev and I want to have a developer meeting to try to organize our work we are treated like we are wasting time since we are ""loosing"" 2 hours of our time to try to plan something. Recently I think I've spent my time 75% doing data and software maintenace (nothing coding-related) and 25% developing software. Oh and if a critical bug comes out, then of course it's our fault since we wrote the code. Now, as I said I don't have any other experience working as a developer due to my age and I understand in small companies you can't have a complete and strict development process and I'm ok with that, but honestly I think that my work habit is simply wrong and completely a mess. But before thinking about quitting I'd like to know if all this is pretty normal considering the type of company I work for or if not. Thanks for reading all this text! [link] [comments] |
