    Stories for VS Code, because why the hell not?

    PSA: If you are making a site that supports multiple languages and you want to select a default for a particular user, make use of the 'accept-language' header in the request, rather than just guess based on their country.

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 06:22 AM PDT

    So many sites require I navigate through their Dothraki interface or whatever to find their setting to change my language because the one I want is not the most common language of the country I'm in. This issue is super common, on pages from big multinational corporations to small indie companies.

    My company wants me to make them a website even though I have basically zero experience; should I accept?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 06:55 AM PDT

    My company severely needs a new website - the current one is just a WordPress site. They know I have some interest in web development and they've asked me if I could take the helm on designing and managing their website. They have offered to buy me courses on uDemy to learn what I need to know.

    My current experience is just beginner Python and very basic knowledge of Java and HTML.

    Is it possible for me to learn to make and manage a website in a relatively short amount of time? I think they want it by the beginning of next year. I'm a quick learner, but I'm worried I'll be taking on too much. I'd love to take this opportunity to learn how to do this and have work to show for it in the future.

    The website will be for a manufacturing company and will just need to be a simple site for info and marketing.

    How do you manage configurations for all your various services?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 12:56 PM PDT

    We have an ecosystem with 10-20 services running. Each service has numerous configurations, keys, etc.. These keys also vary by environment (e.g. you probably have different development api keys and production api keys)

    When you add it all up we're managing a few hundred configs.

    I'm curious what other organizations use to conveniently and securely manage configs? Does any have a solution that lets them manage this in a central place?

    Thanks!

    Help with github please. Trying to update gh-pages

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 01:53 PM PDT

    so I don't know much about github, and I've never found a resource that cleared the fog. For me github is still witchcraft of which I only dream of understanding. a few months ago I did a simple web-app to try and learn github, I kept all the code in the master, and had the built dist folder on a gh-pages branch, so that I could host it on github pages. Now I've made a few updates to the codebase, I pushed the new code to the master, but it won't let me push the new version to gh-pages. the repo is: https://github.com/SirKastic/cat-app can someone please help me? and if possibly link some very easy to understand resources on git and github? I'd appreciate it immensely.

    Is CORS Backwards?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 01:58 PM PDT

    An example is probably best. Say I'm creating a web app, facebook.com, and I want a cool weather widget that puts the weather on the page. My front end (in the clients' browsers) will make a call to wunderground.com to get the weather.

    The way CORS is currently implemented, this will only succeed if wunderground.com puts facebook.com in its CORS header, right?

    This seems backwards. It seems that FACEBOOK.com should be deciding whether or not its clients' browsers should be able to access wunderground, right? This means facebook.com will have to write a kind letter to wunderground asking the latter to add "facebook" to the CORS header, pretty please?

    Put another way, the question is: Who should be trusting whom? Why should wunderground need to trust facebook.com by putting the latter's domain in the CORS header? The page that users are accessing is facebook.com. It is facebook.com that should have to trust wunderground by adding the latter's domain in facebook.com's CORS header.

    If the point of same-origin policy is to cut down on DOS situations then CORS seems to be written properly. If the point is to cut down on cross-site scripting attacks, CORS is backwards.

    I understand that web security is a HUGE industry, and I chalk my misunderstanding up to my own ignorance. But I'm still ignorant and would like to understand.

    How can I transform audio visualiser into an exportable mp4?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 04:18 PM PDT

    At the moment I am animating SVG's based off the amplitude of an audio file. I want to create a feature where the user can export the SVG animation, so if the audio file is 30 seconds long, it will export a 30 second video animation of the audio visualiser. Does anybody know how to achieve this?

    How effective are freelancer portfolio websites in our industry?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 03:41 PM PDT

    Hello devs.

    I'm a freshly baked freelancer and I keep asking myself whether to build a portfolio website, or an agency one when selling my services. I mostly want to do web shops and am afraid that clients would not put enough trust in a single person building their website.

    Tell me, what's your opinion on those two approaches?

    How to store user-submitted pages

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 03:04 PM PDT

    Basically what the title says. I'm working on a project which is pretty much a blog with some extra features, and I need to allow users to create and upload basic articles to my server. Images and other fancy stuff will come later, but for now I assume it's just going to be basic HTML in a form field that they'll be uploading.

    Anyway, my question is what do I do with it once it's posted? Storing the whole thing in a MySQL table seems like the wrong way to go about it. Would I upload it as a .HTML file to /media/ or an s3 bucket and then keep a reference to the url in the database? I'm pretty new to web development so any help is appreciated.

    I'm using Django/DRF for the backend since I do a lot of Python data science and React for the frontend.

    Edit: I forgot to mention, the pages are for lessons so it may be the case that they are long enough to be split into multiple pages linked with a "next - previous" buttons.

    Clearing cache in cPanel

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 02:39 PM PDT

    I'm working with a client and making some CSS updates that aren't loading on their end due to their browsers cache.

    I've heard that on some hosting platforms there is a force purge of vistors cache but I can't seem to figure out if that exists within cPanel natively or with an app add-on.

    Does anyone know how to clear website visitors cache so I don't have to ask my non-technically inclined client to manually clear his cache every time?

    Thanks!

    How can I add pdf files to my website using namecheap web builder?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 01:37 PM PDT

    Beginner: I'm using the namecheap web builder and I want to add files to my website that can be downloaded by visitors.

    I have no idea how to do this. Their cpanel is so hard to navigate especially for a beginner. I noticed some plugins would file manager do the trick? What do i need to look for?

    How can I use my web development skills to make a difference in the world?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 01:37 PM PDT

    In the last few years I've been feeling an exhaustion with the Tech industry.

    It's such a mess - the numerous frameworks, philosophical arguments about the "right" way to do something, the modern web being a shadow of what the original semantic web was supposed to be, cluttered websites with ads and spyware and popup modals, etc...

    All this just to sell marketing services or some other app convenience.

    I've been envying people in the medical profession - they literally get to impact thousands of lives over the course of their career. Same with Teachers, public officials, etc...

    When I look at web development, it just feels like a hobbyist profession that gets paid well but is unsatisfactory at its core.

    So, how can I use my dev skills to do good in the world? Are there any big public projects that I could lend my time to? Not even sure where to start. Or is there a big type of free software I could build that a needing group would benefit from (e.g. "accounting software for teachers!")?

    Sorry if this post is a bit disorganized, I'm just looking for anything and everything to explore how I can make a difference in the world instead of building SaaS sales software.

    IDE advice?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 01:30 PM PDT

    I think this is the name? I am trying to design my own website. What is it called when you're trying to see the actual progress being made in real time as you're coding? Currently I'm in my repository. I'll make a change then save, then go to the url. It will either look weird or look how I want, then I'll go back to the live code in the repository. It's back and forth, and annoying because of the time delay. Is there no way to see this running in real time side by side? If I add a button or change the font is there no quick or easy way to see this?

    Background image changes with browser window size

    Posted: 30 Oct 2020 01:13 PM PDT

    Hi there, I am creating a site for my table tennis club and i've stumbled into a small problem on the way. In my header i'm using a background image that i'd like focussed on one particular part of the image.

    Now my problem is this: https://gyazo.com/5d921ee5b3c6b046492a017b2e469a52

    when i resize the window in any way, the background image seems to change positions. Is there any way i can resolve this?

    CSS:

    header{
    background-color: #bbc8ce;
    /*background image*/
    background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7), rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7)),
    url("./img/background-image-blur.png");
    background-size: cover;
    background-position: 0 -400px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-attachment: fixed;
    /*position header*/
    border-bottom: 2px #607d8b solid;
    position: fixed;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    height: 100px;
    width: 100%;
    z-index: 9999;
    }
