    Any advantages to developing on a Mac instead of Linux?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 03:13 AM PDT

    I'm curious if the Mac has any advantages. I know graphic design apps are much better on Macs (not my focus, but it's something). Anything else?

    Is it really this difficult to get a web developer job?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 10:57 AM PDT

    https://nypost.com/2018/07/28/homeless-man-hands-out-resumes-gets-hundreds-of-job-offers/

    TLDR; 26 year old experienced web developer who had to resort to holding up a sign at an intersection to get a job offer.

    This is very discouraging for me as I am self taught and am almost at a point to where I was going to start applying.

    Part of why I decided to focus on web dev was the apparent "shortage" of developers AKA job security...now I read post after post of people who can't seem to get any interviews- and now this guy; This is a guy who has experience on his resume.(resume can be seen in the link- it doesn't look bad IMO...)

    What are your thoughts?

    How much should I expect to pay a freelancer for building a website?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 11:30 AM PDT

    Hey guys, i'm working on building a personal website and i'm talking to a lot of developers, but I have no concept of how much a good website costs.

    I already have a domain, hosting, and wordpress set up. I'm asking the developer to help create 9 pages using wordpress templates.

    The most "interactive" thing I'm asking for is a carousel style gallery, which is ready an existing widget in wordpress. The other pages consist of one photo and about a paragraph of text.

    What do you guys think the project is valued at? I don't want to lowball anyone, but I also don't want to be taken advantage of since I know nothing.

    Does your site verify ownership of email address at sign-up?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 03:07 PM PDT

    Do the site(s) you are responsible for truly verify the email addresses submitted when someone signs up? Verification of email involves sending an email to the address in question, which the recipient must then click to complete the sign-up process.

    I know many sites are failing to do this. For better or worse, I have an email address composed of <common first name><common last name>@<major provider> . Apparently, this means that many people with similar names think that my address is their email address. My email has been used to sign up with some fairly important sites, including financial, gambling and air travel.

    The customers are probably unhappy that they are not getting their emails. I usually have no recourse to completely stop the emails. In some cases the recipient of such emails would be able to reset the user's password and take over their account. I don't want to do this.

    Please, please, developers, verify any email addresses submitted by your users . It is not enough to verify that it is a valid email address. You must also verify that it belongs to them.

    Can you think of a good reason not to do this when many sites do this type of verification?

    Looking for pay as you go SMS and Email API for Saas App

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 11:25 AM PDT

    I'm building a Saas app and am currently looking for an SMS and Email provider. The app is going to offer my customers the ability to market via both SMS and Email at once.

    I'm looking for a provider. Preferably one that can do SMS and email. Right now so far I've found Plivo seems to be the cheapest for SMS, but am at a loss for email.

    Is there a decent cheap API provider for both SMS and email out there?

    Looking for advice, trying to transition from accounting/finance to full stack web development

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 11:02 AM PDT

    I have been in the accounting/finance field for over 7 years now and around 3 months ago finally decided to make the move to web development. I have been apply to jobs for the last 2 months and have sent around 40 applications so far. I have received a few phone calls, mostly from recruiting agencies, but have not had any success in getting an offer.

    I am going to be more aggressive on my applications and hoping to get around 3 per day moving forward (it's a bit of a challenge working full time, maintaining projects, working out problems on HackerRank, etc). Also I am limited to positions near Orange County as my girlfriend, who I am supporting, is going to school out here for the next year and a half. I will also be looking for tech meet ups in the area to start networking.

    I have put together a portfolio and have had several iterations of my resume

    I am hoping the kind people of webdev can give me some advice and answer a few questions.

    1. Is the meetup app the best place to find tech meet ups?
    2. Should I try applying to mid level positions?
    3. Is there a better way to find open positions besides Indeed and LinkedIn?
    4. Are there any changes I should make to my resume?
    5. Are there any changes I should make to my portfolio?
    6. I see a lot of jobs for php, should I try to learn a new stack or continue focusing on what I've been learning?
    7. Should I get certified?
    8. Should I make a cardboard sign asking for a job and stand on the street with my resumes? (This is a joke)

    Any other advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    State of modern web development

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 03:41 PM PDT

    20+ year developer here, front and back end. I am over the moon with what all we can accomplish in the modern web, but am I the only one who feels like it takes longer to setup all the build tools than it does to actually build the site? :)

    Don't get me wrong. I love what all these build tools do for us and the end user, but I kinda miss the days of change a stylesheet, upload it and you're good to go.

    Seems like web dev is becoming software dev having to compile everything then uploading/pushing.

    Again, I'm not knocking it, I use it everyday. Maybe I'm just getting old and nostalgic.

    How to acquire a godaddy domain that's expiring soon without notifying the current owner that I'm interested

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 03:32 PM PDT

    I noticed that a domain owned by a competitor will be expiring soon, and I'd like to acquire it. It's not something of general use, but a very specific name that actually references me--so I'm guessing that he's just lost interest in it and doesn't want to pay fees on it anymore. But if he sees that someone else is trying to acquire it though, he will assume that it's me, and that may spur him to renew it.

    So I want to acquire it, but I don't want to alert him that I'm doing so. What's the best way forward?

    Do I put it on backorder? Do I wait until it expires and then make a bid on the auction where it will apparently go up for sale? Do I do that soon, or do I wait until his 30 day redemption period is up, and then just hope that no one else snapped it up in the meantime?

    Also, if I buy the domain at auction, who keeps the sale proceeds? The current owner or godaddy?

    JS Code question for Streamlabs

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 11:44 AM PDT

    So I'm working on making a circular collision box for a streamlabs overlay.

    Currently, the basic boundary box is this:

    cupBase[1] += 10; boxBody = new p2.Body({ mass: 0, position: [cupBase[0], cupBase[1]] }); boxShape = new p2.Box({ width: 140, height: 30 }); boxShape.material = this.materials.wall; boxBody.addShape(boxShape); this.world.addBody(boxBody); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + 68, cupBase[1] + 133], 300, 30, 85)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] - 68, cupBase[1] + 133], 300, 30, -85)); 

    This code creates three rectangular collision boxes, and angles two of them in the shape of a very basic glass.

    What I want, is to have a boundary box for a perfect circle;

    cupBase[1] += 10; circleBody = new p2.Body({ mass: 0, position: [cupBase[0], cupBase[1]] }); circleShape = new p2.Box({ width: 140, height: 30 }); circleShape.material = this.materials.wall; circleBody.addShape(circleShape); this.world.addBody(circleBody); this.world.addBody(createCircleBody(0, 40); 

    This fails to compile, however, and results in 0 collision detection.

    from what the documentation says, a circle body is created like this;

    We provide a few wrappers for more simple objects, they can be accessed through 'this.' createRectangleBody(position, width, height, angle) { createCircleBody(position, radius) { createWallBody(x, y, l, w, angle) { 

    Any help is appreciated! I have VERY little experience in JS, so sorry if I make you cringe at the attempt!

    Pastebin : https://pastebin.com/MPPhFteJ

    Edit: Found this bit of info, but kind of confused on how to apply it to this scenario.

    EDIT: Cheesed it:

    this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + 87, cupBase[1] + 176], 26.38, 50, -317.834)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + -87, cupBase[1] + 176], 26.38, 50, 317.834)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + 111, cupBase[1] + 134], 26.5, 50, -344.096)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + -111, cupBase[1] + 134], 26.5, 50, 344.096)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + 113, cupBase[1] + 86], 26.5, 50, -10.835)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + -113, cupBase[1] + 86], 26.5, 50, 10.835)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + 92, cupBase[1] + 42], 26.5, 50, -38.989)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + -92, cupBase[1] + 42], 26.5, 50, 38.989)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + 53, cupBase[1] + 11], 26.5, 50, -66.927)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + -53, cupBase[1] + 11], 26.5, 50, 66.927)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + 12.701, cupBase[1] + -2.514], 26.5, 36.68, -81.152)); this.world.addBody(this.createRectangleBody([cupBase[0] + -12.701, cupBase[1] + -2.514], 26.5, 36.68, 81.152)); 

    When in doubt, use a more complicated way to achieve the same result you re looking for!

    Creating a GUI application/Web application

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 03:11 PM PDT

    Hello all, I had a question that was bothering me, I'm hoping this is the correct subreddit that can answer the question

    I'm wondering, how testers test web/gui applications on desktops and laptops. There's a lot of permutations it seems. Things you need to account for are things like what browsers users will be downloading the application + running the application on (the operating system and the hardware)

    I do know of a website called browserstack that tests web browsers, but couldn't find anything for physical device? Do they just buy a bunch of laptops/desktops like mobile qa testers?

    What are your favorite PHP base eCommerce solutions?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2018 11:20 AM PDT

    Looking for a lightweight eCommerce recommendation for a high end site built by a team. Preferably something built on Laravel or CodeIgniter that utilizes MVC and allows for code deployment via github (as opposed to some CMSs, which want you to make all of your changes in the CMS).
