    Is it normal to be given a 4+ year old repo and told to add features for a job interview?

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 09:11 AM PDT

    Is this normal? How many of you have gone through this, and is a company that does this worth working for?

    edit: thanks everyone I've been validated below.

    Use different favicon depending on browser tab color

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 11:39 AM PDT

    I have to use a favicon that's either white or black. The white version looks horrible on browsers that have a white or grey tab. The black one looks horrible on browsers that have a darker tab color.

    Is there a way to detect the browser tab color/theme and load the correct favicon?

    Websocat - a bridge between WebSockets and UNIX world

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 04:03 AM PDT

    I'd like to introduce here a tool for dealing with WebSockets I've made: websocat.

    Websocat serves as a command-line WebSocket client, server and proxy. It is inspired by old and tried socat tool.

    Websocat is open source (MIT), there are pre-built binaries for a number of platforms.

    Some features include:

    • Simple command line client mode: one line = one text WebSocket message (binary mode also supported).
    • Simple server mode: websocat -s 1234 and you can connect to ws://127.0.0.1:1234. websocat --pkcs12-der test.pkcs12 -s 1234 and you can connect to wss://127.0.0.1:1234.
    • Specify HTTP headers while connecting, like in curl.
    • JSON RPC mode - wrap your input in {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1, "method":"...", "params":...} automatically. Replies are printed as is.
    • Accept reverse-proxied connections from Nginx.
    • Start your CLI script to talk to a connected WebSocket client, with URL as environment variable.
    • In server mode, additionally serve some static files (for quick prototyping without running additional web server).

    Tetris wallpaper generator

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 02:41 PM PDT

    Just wanted to share my Tetris wallpaper generator I built: https://topswagcode.com/tetris/

    I wanted to switch wallpaper on my pc. But couldn't find any I liked. So thought I would code a small webapp to fix my problem. Made it dynamic so it would fit for all my screens. Added a couple of colour schemes to pick from.

    Might add some features in the near future :)

    What tools to generate content from db?

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 01:56 PM PDT

    Hi, I want to make web, where clientside will render two types of content.

    First will be simple text content updated once a day from some db. -- client will just fetch data to render.

    Second will be something like twitter feed dynamically updated like every 10 seconds with user interaction for commenting. -- client will fetch stored data and also will be able to post something new without registration (maybe only storing his choosen name for that one session)

    What else besides javascript should I use? I wanted to avoid React for this simple app, but is it best to render server side data in this case? is there a way how could I store (and let users send data to some db) without proper backend? If not, what is simplest option?

    Thank you

    How to improve horizontal scrolling for mouse users in OSX

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 01:55 PM PDT

    I have a list 40 of thumbnails in 1 line that scrolls horizontally within a div that has overflow:scroll.

    In OSX scrollbars are hidden by default. If you do not have a trackpad you cannot grab a scrollbar and scroll it over. You also cannot use the mousewheel to scroll horizontally. Most people do not know about holding the shift key to scroll horizontally with the mouse wheel.

    I would prefer to not have to add some kind of JS slideshow widget with left and right arrows but I can't see any other solution right now.

    Google Maps API Billing Requirements. Setting Quotas Question.

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 01:02 PM PDT

    Hey everyone!

    So I get that I have to enable a billing account and that sucks but I get it.

    After I have set up billing will I definitely have the option to set my quotas to under the paid tier (or the $200 credit tier) and not have to deal with potentially getting billed? Has anyone come across any resource to determine what the magic number is to avoid getting charged or is it as straight forward as following the pricing sheet here which suggests I can just set my quota limit to 70k per month for location autocomplete and not be billed.

    It will be interesting if they start implementing the same requirements to their current "free" services.

    Don't be evil, indeed.

    Many Thanks!

    Simplest way to provide a value from the server? (Server-side help)

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 11:46 AM PDT

    Hi!

    I'm making a fun "escape game" kind of website for friends and I need to show values without showing how they are calculated. I'm scared that they look at the source code and find out the answer.

    What would be the simplest way to provide the client with a value calculated on the server? I'm new to web development so I would like as less implementations as possible.

    Thank you very much for the help :)

    Thoughts on # + Initials in PERSONAL domain name email address?

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 11:28 AM PDT

    I have a very common name, let's say it's Jane Mary Smith for example. Obviously all of the good domain names are taken. I was lucky enough to get the domain '4JMS.com' (essentially the number 4 and my initials)...so it is really short and easy to remember/type.

    For personal email (not for a business and not for employment purposes)...what do you all think of it? Does the number make it a crappy email domain? Or does it's shortness and ease of remembrance make up for it?

    Web Developer Intern - What to expect?

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 10:01 AM PDT

    Hey everyone, I have been lurking this sub for a while and have a question concerning interviews for web developer internships. I've seen mixed things concerning how the interview will be like, so I figured I'd ask here to get some valuable input. After searching past posts about web dev internships, I've seen that it's valuable to be able to talk through my projects intelligently and explain them to the interviewer.

    My concern is whether or not there will be Data Structures/Algorithm technical problems during the interview. I have the least amount of experience with these, although I have studied them here and there. Most of my time has been spent building out projects, most recently in React.

    The job requirements are jQuery, JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS; so I have been studying up on these pretty heavily. Interview is in a week, anything I may be missing in my preparation?

    Thanks!

    Feedback on my website

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 09:42 AM PDT

    Hey guys,

    I created my website about two months ago, and figured opening it up to critique and criticism would be a great way to learn some of the shortcomings regarding design, UI and more.

    If I could please get some honest opinions I would be entirely grateful, thanks.

    The most expensive System76 computer is over 46000 dollars, what should i get instead.

    Posted: 01 Sep 2018 09:21 AM PDT

    I'm looking for some advice about my next PC. As a joke I went through the System76 design and buy and moddest out the most expensive possible option, it was $46,296 dollars. Assuming that I'm a rational person, what should I get instead?

    I do web development, you know like JavaScript php and the like. However my new job wants me to learn Java for enterprise.

    If possible I'd like my new computer to be able to run a docker box containing Java, tomcat, nginx, mongodb, and Cassandra db without feeling like I'm worried. I also want to learn Hadoop but can probably use AWS for something like that...

    I like the idea of supporting a company like System 76, I don't need anything too crazy I don't think. What do you all recommend?

    Hello,

    I made this portfolio page for myself. While I'm not very good with frontend designing, I tried to make it look nice. Would appreciate hearing some feedback on UX and UI as those are the things I lack (and I'm learning and wish to improve).
