    Why are these two almost identical redirect chains punished differently?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 08:22 AM PDT

    I am trying to optimize my site and I noticed something weird when comparing it to a competitor's site.

    Both websites are only accessible via the non-WWW URLs. All WWW links are redirected to non-WWW links.

    All redirects are 301's

     

    Competitor's website

    • Uses COMODO certificate
    • Redirect chain

      http://www.example.com/ http://example.com/ https://example.com/ 

    My website

    • Uses Let's Encrypt certificate
    • Redirect chain

      http://www.example.com/ https://www.example.com/ (1 cookie set) https://example.com/ 

     

    My website gets punished more by website analysis tools (Pingdom, GTmetrix etc) and I am unable to figure out why.

    Anyone know why this is the case? Is there any way to change the redirect flow?

     

    I have the following at the top of my .htaccess file.

    RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.mydomain.com [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://mydomain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

    Tomorrow I start a new as a Junior Developer. Need advice

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 09:43 AM PDT

    I finished college some years back. At the time I didn't know what I wanted to do so I did non dev tech work. I gained a huge interest in the web and decided to do some freelance work and develop my skills, mostly in Php, JavaScript etc for about 1.5 years. late last year I got a job as a web developer in a small digital agency. Unfortunately I found it hard and was dismissed after a few months due to underperformance. I was mostly working on my own and was expected to see a through project from start to finish which I struggled.

    After this I went back to freelancing for a few months and got this new job. I'm really looking forward to it but is there anything I can do to make this opportunity the best it can be? I feel I'm a really talented coder but some things like time management I stumble on.

    How long does it take you to code the HTML and CSS for a site?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 04:05 PM PDT

    Assuming you don't have any boilerplates or styles ready, how long would it take you to create the site from scratch?

    I was given a coding challenge for a company that basically asked me to recreate their site in HTML without looking at the source, but I feel like its an over 8 hr task. I don't think I should give out the company site that it is, but this one is rather similar in many aspects

    https://www.soliddigital.com/

    How long do you think it would take you to code that site? (just the home page view)

    Looking for that Old School Forms CSS Library

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 09:08 AM PDT

    I saw recently someone posted a link to what I think was a CSS framework that focused on minimalistic forms. The design was meant to mimic paper forms that people would fill out. So it's really a minimalistic style, that looked something like this or like this.

    Does that ring a bell with anyone?

    Any threads where i can reference to people in the webdev community to follow on social media?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 03:54 PM PDT

    Aspiring webdev beginner. Looking for webdevleopers on social media to follow for inspiration, ideas, motovation, etc. Mainly Instagram and YouTube. Only people I seem to find wben i search webdev are really attractive female devs with 100k followers lol. (Nothing against that) Just those tend to have more branding mixed in then actual webdev related stuff. Do you guys look up to any figures in particular? Any smaller webdevs that I should know about. Or could you redirect me to a previous thread. Ty!

    How to offer custom email hosting solution?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 12:05 PM PDT

    I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this.

    Basically, I want to offer customers an email service for the domains that they've already purchased. Something like Google apps for business, but on a very small scale. Basically they signup at my page, setup the MX records for their domain to point to my server, and get a very basic email (them@theirdomain.com) that works.

    I've good understanding of DevOps, and can code well in PHP and Javascript.

    I'm not sure what approach I should take for this. Can someone point me in the right direction?

    What are nginx, tomcat, and docker, and how do they come together?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 03:24 PM PDT

    I'm a developer at this company. I want to know my stuff.

    This being a large enterprise software, it has lots of moving parts. Few of the technologies we're working on are nginx, tomcat and docker. I am somewhat confused as to what each of them do.

    How to start a form submission website that returns data based on input?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 02:40 PM PDT

    Apologies if the title is somewhat nonsensical, but I've had an idea about a website that I'm designed (for teachers) that outputs template comments for report writing based on some criteria, like subject, year group, etc.

    The basic premise is that the user selects a few of these options from a few drop-down lists and text boxes, then clicks generate and then a number (say 10) statements come out. So the front end sends a form to the back end, and a back end algorithm spits out some text information which is returned in the form of a few sentences. I actually hold all the data in a few CSV files, and have written a Python script which does the aforementioned algorithm. I've also designed the front end (to a basic level).

    The trouble is, I am a physicist by profession, so my programming expertise is somewhat limited (mainly Python and Haskell). I've taught myself HTML, CSS and JS but not to the degree where I would even dare to say I'm at the intermediate level, not to mention the fact that I have very little idea about web frameworks in general, so I am not sure at all which way to implement this entire strategy. I've asked a similar question on reddit before but I got offered many solutions; pure JS and JSON, Ajax, jquery, GraphQl...but it was like telling me "sure! you want to do this? Just learn Chinese/Indian/Russian".

    I was hoping that someone here would be able to tell me what the best structure for such a site should be, as well as what the best way to implement it would be (pay a company, pre-built website, self-built, etc).

    Looking forward to your advice!

    Could someone help me integrate Firebase database REST API with Bubble editor?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 02:36 PM PDT

    Long story short, I learned how to create an app on Android Studio and am now looking to create a web app that is similar in function to my Android app, and that is connected to the same database as the Android App.

    I did some googling and didn't come up with much, there was one post in a forum that just says "use firebase REST API" but I am having a hard time figuring out how to implement the app.

    I already have my firebase database set up and connected with the android app, now I just need to connect it to the website app.

    Learning Elm. Or not.

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 08:09 AM PDT

    When I learned to code, it was still called programming and C++ was the new, cool thing.

    I've never put my coding talent to great use, but it is still an interest of mine. I've watched JavaScript rise to superiority in the web space and I've seen it's gradual descent into framework hell.

    Then I watched a few YouTube videos about Elm and I realised exactly why Elm was a great thing. What I'm struggling with is the 'everything is immutable' paradigm. I 100% understand why it is that way, but I am still trying to wrap my mind around how you actually get stuff done in a universe of unchangeable 'variables'.

    Has anyone got an idiots guide aimed at explaining Elm specifically tackling "you can't change data, but this is how you get around it" ?

    Need Advice on Interview for Intern/Temp Position

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 01:34 PM PDT

    Hey everyone,

    I've got an interview for an early-stage IoT startup coming up in the middle of next week. Basically, they just responded to my application and invited me in for a 1-hour interview, no pre-screening or anything of the sort. This is my first interview for a developer position so is there anything I should know in advance? What should I wear? How should I present myself? What are things I should do to impress the employer?

    Thanks in advance!

    Wait for http post and show the results in a popup box

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 01:00 PM PDT

    I only have 1 question... How? :D

    var res = $.post("localhost:8889/asd", {"key":1234, "value":9876})

    So this is the post what is sent but how do I "visualize" waiting (it can take 6-7 seconds) with some kind of progress bar or something like that.

    Also how I show a popup box when there is a response?

    My Experiment with Hosting Speeds on Siteground and Hostgator

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 12:36 PM PDT

    I recently looked into switching hosting providers for my Wordpress sites. I was using Hostgator forever but wanted to give Siteground a try, so I signed up and ran a little experiment to test loading speeds for each provider.

    I made a post about my results if anyone is curious: https://codebushi.com/siteground-hostgator-wordpress-hosting/

    The TLDR: I installed a new Wordpress site on both Hostgator and Siteground, using the exact same theme. I then tested the sites with several Page Speed testing tools to see how Siteground compared to Hostgator. Siteground beat Hostgator by a small margin in 2 tests, and had a better mobile optimization score.

    Where do you draw the line between front-end Web Developer and someone who makes Webpages?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 12:04 PM PDT

    As the title suggest, where do we exactly draw the line between front-end web developer position and a position on which you only create web pages? I know the question itself might sound pretty stupid, but then again, I suppose people aren't being paid 60-70k$+ per year in the U.S. just for making web pages with little-to-none JavaScript for example, right..? I myself am aiming for a web developer position sometime in the future, but was wondering where** and** what is the line that distinguishes the both.

    Does anyone know any legal resources that I could ask very specific questions about the European GDPR as it relates to UK hosting of simple online forum communities?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2018 11:17 AM PDT

    All of the language seems extremely ambiguous and doesn't make it clear how to handle glaring oversights in the text of the GDPR. Is there a legal resource I can use to ask very specific questions about those missing scenarios, or just how much of the scope applies to a simple forum with zero revenue?
