    StartCom aka StartSSL to stop issuing SSL's and terminate being a CA

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 11:27 AM PST

    Thought id share this with you guys, I just received an email telling me that StartCom are terminating because they are still not being trusted by the main browsers.

    Shame as they were the only free SSL providers for a time for personal websites. Looks like Let's Encrypt is the only other alternative (and better in most cases).

    Link to a copy of the email.

    Best non-scummy ways of monetizing a website without paid content ?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 05:50 AM PST

    Hey r/webdev,

    I was wondering how you would make money of a website if you can't have a paywall for content, while being as ethical and non-intrusive as possible.

    Let's suppose you have high traffic on your website. Do we have solutions that allows to earn decent money without selling users data and using tracking add services such as Google Adsense ? I know of Carbon Ads, and it's close to my criterias but it's only targetting technical people. I'd be curious to hear about other ways of doing that don't necesserarily involve ads and paid content. Basically anything that is clear with the user about what it's doing and not doing anything without the user consent is fine.

    My first library! An abstraction library for the Web Audio API to make working with oscillators way easier

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 11:10 AM PST

    Is there a way for me to hide my Google API key on my client side application?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 06:33 AM PST

    I've been working through the Google API documentation and managed to make a web app that creates playlists. The only problem is, initalising the gapi object requires and API key, and I've no idea how to do it securely.

    I've read around online, and a lot of people seem to suggest that I should instead make requests to my server, which then makes the requests on the user's behalf. Is this true? If so, what is the point of having a client side library if I can't secure an API key?

    Thanks for the help

    GoDaddy Domain, Node JS and Heroku - First Time Website - Opinions please!

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 03:04 PM PST

    I have a person who has a GoDaddy domain name and wants a single page website.

    However, I am most comfortable with Node JS.

    I am thinking about using that domain name with another hosting service. Right now I am looking at Heroku.

    I was thinking I could use GoDaddy to direct to Heroku.

    This is my first time using GoDaddy and Heroku.

    For such a redirection, is it possible to not display the link at mywebsite.herokuapp.com?

    Are there any better options out there for a single page website?

    Thank you for your time!

    Need some advice for a portfolio website

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 08:40 AM PST

    I have a fairly strong background in HTML and CSS especially after my last internship, in which I did a lot of prototyping with VueJS 2 and the Vuetify framework (also with some deployment using AWS). My JS skills aren't great and I'd like some recommendations for how to approach building a portfolio website since I'm currently using Wix. I feel like I'd be most confident in just building a basic Vue app and utilizing AWS, but I'm concerned it might be overkill...
     
    Tl;dr how did you build your personal website , and how would you recommend someone with foundational knowledge in HTML, CSS, VueJS and Vuetify go about building a portfolio site from scratch? Thanks in advance!

    How much experience do I need for a basic job?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 01:29 AM PST

    I have been learning python for 2 years and django for a year. Yes that isn't much, so how many years of experience do I really need for a job? I know Django, python(obviously), PostegresSQL and some other DBs, bootstrap, jquery, stylus/css, js

    (I'm not getting one though because other reasons. Just curious)

    I need some help with my tribute page

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 01:36 AM PST

    I recently started doing freeCodeCamp courses. I'm almost done with my first web page but I need some help. Here's the CodePen link to my site: https://codepen.io/karlomajer/pen/wPRzar

    The problem is that when you are viewing the site from your phone, the ending quotation mark at the bottom of the page ends up at a weird position. Here's how it looks like: http://s18.postimg.org/gpr5jloqh/Screenshot_2017-12-03-00-11-14.png

    I'm almost certain that it has to do with 'position: absolute;' in 'q:after'. The problem is, if I don't use 'position: absolute;' for the quotation marks, they mess up the quote, unless I'm using the default quotation mark size, which I don't want to in this case. How can I solve this problem?

    Fellow developers (and business owners, too), I feel I'm stuck. Is the problem me, or is it the company?

    Is WebRTC Ready enough? (Native Camera Use)

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 01:25 PM PST

    Trying to decide if I should build a web application/PWA or go with native apps...

    The camera is it's core function.

    Grounds on using photos on your website that don't belong to you but widely spread?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 12:57 PM PST

    Hello,

    So i'm just wondering what the grounds are for using a celebrities photo such as a rapper or singer who has an iage of them on thats been reposted, reblogged and mentioned on social media and other websites? Are you still not allowed to use those images for commercial gain if its been publicised this much?

    If not, how do websites such as looklive.com able to use images of celebrities? Obviously, they don't have to get permission from the same celebrity everytime they upload a photo of them?

    Please shed some light on this matter, thank you

    Have you ever had a project be picked up at your job which is not related to development at all?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 11:30 AM PST

    My main job is a support engineer and the last few months, during downtime and at home, I've picked up learning web development. I want to make this my career at some point so I've dedicated to learning it everyday. The past month I have been working on a tool to help with my job. I have showed it to a few colleagues and they wanted to use it too, so I shared it with them. Lately people outside of our team has even started to use it which is great.

    My only concern is that I want to cement my path to being a full time web developer so any advice on what steps I should take next?

    Thanks

    Portfolio domain name

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 10:25 AM PST

    Hi everyone. I was figuring out what the domain name of my personal portfolio site would be and came up with two alternatives: myname.io and myna.me (actual tld is .im). I was going with .io, but then i thought that having the name being completed with the tld is really cool. Any thoughts about this, considering seo, etc? Thanks.

    Any reason to switch to Firefox from Chrome?

    Posted: 02 Dec 2017 07:27 PM PST

    With the big push Mozilla made with Quantum I was wondering if there is anything specific in FF 57 that would make it worth wild to switch over. They both seem to have the same performance and use about the same resources and the dev tools don't seem that much different.

    Django best-practices question (loading static files, URL dispatcher)

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 02:27 AM PST

    Q1) Should I use a single urls.py file to dispatch requests to specific views, or should I just use a url dispatcher file in the app's specific folder to act as a dispatcher to app-specific views? I prefer doing it the first way as it is simpler and my project is simple

    Q2) How should I load static files? Using the {% include '___.html' %} method or the {% load static %}

    Goal: Finding the easiest thing as possible right now, don't really care about future-proofing my project but don't want to run into problems. The project is simply and will have related content (thus probably one app would suffice for this prjoect)

    Thanks all !
