    Stackoverflow Mod marked my question duplicate and linked to his own answer which doesn't answer the question. What options do I have?

    Posted: 11 Jul 2018 12:05 PM PDT

    I spent 1 hour to create minimal viable question and another 30 mins to write the question. But it was marked duplicated the moment it was posted. What options do I have? I have tried making an edit explaining linked question is related but doesn't answer the question but no help. What options do I have? Should I make a post on meta stackoverflow? I fear that I will be downvoted to hell hole if I do so. Any suggestions?

    Do you think the ever-growing amount of "coding bootcamps" will end up over-saturating the industry with web developers?

    Posted: 10 Jul 2018 10:45 PM PDT

    One of the reasons these coding bootcamps are so successful right now is:

    1) The field is growing. Every company needs a website or a web app these days, so the demand is certainly there.

    2) The field pays well, in general, compared to other entry-level jobs.

    3) It's a flexible career and the job itself is pretty enjoyable, at least in my opinion. Lots of web developers and programmers really like their jobs.

    However, my concern is that with 10's-100's of new bootcamps springing up each year, that sooner or later the field will become over-saturated. Everyone knows someone who has went to one of these bootcamps, and they've only been around for a few years. What do you guys think?

    How can I promote my webdev tutorials and snippets?

    I'm thinking of creating a blog where I can share some PHP and JS hacks I've created over the years. But I have no idea how I would promote my postings. Does anyone have any ideas? Are there any sites that aggregate tutorial links?

    What unique ways are you using to combat contact form spam?

    Posted: 11 Jul 2018 01:57 PM PDT

    I'm using a honeypot field for my contact forms which is helping a lot but some automated spam still gets through.

    I'm really interested to here how other people are creatively combating contact form spam and what they recommend.

    My websites aren't running on Wordpress so I'm not looking to just install a plugin.

    Is anyone using Akismet outside of Wordpress?

    I would prefer not to use reCaptcha since it makes it difficult for legitimate users and getting them to fill out the contact form in the first place is difficult enough.

    Is there a good way to set the height of an embedded PDF object to the height of the document?

    Posted: 11 Jul 2018 11:56 AM PDT

    I have a single-page PDF document that I'm embedding like this:

    <object data="/document.pdf" width="100%" type="application/pdf"> alt : <a href="/document.pdf">document</a> </object>

    Obviously I can just hardcode the height, but the PDF viewers are different on each browser. Is there a way to do something like height="100%" to make the object fit to the height of the PDF? I want to avoid scrolling and extra space at the bottom.

    I found this forum, but it ends up looking the same as it does when I don't set a height.

    Please don't tell me my only option is to hardcode different heights based on the browser.

    Can we talk about markdown?

    Posted: 11 Jul 2018 07:56 AM PDT

    At first I thought it was a stupid markup language used for posting on reddit. Now that I am writing my own docs, I see its usefulness. I am starting to use it to replace MS Word for a lot of textual purposes, such as journaling and writing procedures. Here are my questions/discussion topics:

    What do you use to write it?

    What do you use to store it? Database? compiled HTML? .md files?

    How do you display it on your web pages? back end library? javascript library?

    What is your front to back workflow?

    Thanks

    Agile + GitLab

    Posted: 11 Jul 2018 06:17 AM PDT

    Hi,

    I come from an Atlassian background where we use BitBucket for code and Jira for project management. It has its downsides and annoyances but it generally works really well.

    I am about to start work at a new job who use GitLab. It seems like it has limited support for Agile processes. Does anyone run Agile using GitLab? Are there any other tools I should be aware of that can be used to make the process more simple?

    Many thanks,

    Opportunity to interview for a web development position in two weeks. How can I boost my skills in the meantime.

    Posted: 11 Jul 2018 01:02 PM PDT

    I'm pretty mediocre as far as web devs go. I have a chance to get a new job, so I want to cram in as much practice as I can.

    I was thinking of going to Free Code Camp and just spending as many hours a day as possible learning. Any better ideas?

    Reddit CSS: Target only thumbnails that have or don't have image previews

    Posted: 11 Jul 2018 04:10 PM PDT

    Hello,

    I've been struggling to find any info about this or figure it out myself. I'm wondering if it's possible to exclusively target post thumbnails on Reddit that are the generic thumbnail and don't have an image preview for styling. Or, adversely, if it's possible to exclusively target only thumbnails that aren't the generic thumbnail and do have an image preview for styling. Just to clarify, I'm not looking for the selector to target the img itself (i.e. .link .thumbnail img), but a selector for thumbnails that either exclusively do or exclusively don't have an img as a child.

    Thank you so much in advance for any help.

    Creating lightweight CMS

    Posted: 11 Jul 2018 12:19 PM PDT

    I've started creating a lightweight version of what can best be called a CMS, but it has one main purpose. I've made a UI with a dashboard and the option for users to create pages based on 1 of 4 template options. Each template is comprised of panels (basically divs that can be populated by TinyMCE text editor, or an image/media, etc.).

    I've set up a database to store everything and render properly but I'm starting to get lost a bit.

    The 4 templates have the same top banner and a footer/news ticker that is always in the same place but they can edit the items on the ticker itself. Between the banner and ticker, there are either 2 50% divs, 1 100% div, a 50% div on the left with two 25% divs on the right, and then another with a 50% on the right with 2 25% divs on the left. Basically, when they click on a div and create content for it and hit save, I will be saving a 'page' with a banner panel, ticker panel, and then the middle panels, as well as all content pertaining to each panel type.

    The only thing this is used for is to assign pages to displays in certain areas of an office for news, announcements, weather and social media.

    Is there anything out there to give resources for what I'm doing here? It's much more scaled back than most CMS systems and it's only serving this one purpose but I'm getting to the point where I just need to connect the dots of the front end with the database a bit more strictly and I'm hoping for some helpful resources if anyone knows of them?

    How to manage state?

    Posted: 11 Jul 2018 03:02 PM PDT

    Hi,

    I'm in the middle of my first react project and I'm unsure how to manage my state: I learned that ideally I should only manage one store (given this, I assume my entire application should only contain one stateful component) and I should distribute state down to the children components via props.

    Given this, I ran into the following challenges:

    1. I have nested components and need to pass data via props down through every component, until I reach the last component (up to four times currently). I believe this is inefficient, adds boilerplate code (passing the state on every component) and is hard to manage. Is there an alternative?
    2. Assuming I would like to change the state on a given event, which is handled by a children component, I have to create the setState method in the parent (since only the parent owns a store (stateful)) and additionally pass it down as a prop...through the entire component chain. As already mentioned in my first question: inefficient, boilerplate code and hard to manage. Any alternative(s)?
    3. Since I need to extend react.Component to access the lifecycle methods, every method which should be fired at a specific lifecycle step (e.g. reaching out to another server after componentDidMount()) also needs to be defined in the parent, since it's the only stateful component and therefore extends react.Component. Is there a more efficient solution to this approach?
    4. Redux (I'm currently reading about it) looks very interesting, since it provides a single store with relative easy accessibility and without the need of passing down props. I'm unsure however, if redux would be overkill for my problem? I would be happy to hear some opinions on this, given my situation above.

    I appreciate every help I can get on this topic! :)
