    Anyone on here have any experience with trilogy web development bootcamps offered at universities?

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 08:52 AM PDT

    I'm in the interview process with Columbia for a web dev bootcamp but from a reddit post I read from this past April including a former trilogy employee response is giving me red flags. I'm already learning web dev on my own but have considered these programs but a lot of them seem like scams.

    Is mastering Css and designing still worth in 2018?

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 04:15 AM PDT

    Hi!

    I'm sorry if my question seems redundant but I have to ask it.

    I'm a full stack web developer but I enjoy front end quite a bit too much. By front-end I mean the designing, animtions, js and css stuff, not the Api-fetching-logic-building stuff with frameworks like Angular.

    I enjoy messing around with css&js in my free time and post various templates to github pages. What i want to ask is:

    Is it even worth (in terms of finding a job) to learn and master css? Everybody I know use Bootstrap and only a few lines of css to make their front-end whereas I, first develop a sketch and then custom code everything from scratch as most of the time, what I require is not provided by bootstrap.

    I find it satisfying in making unique designs and animations using css&js from scratch but I want to know if I'm wasting my time? I found a video on facebook for a platform (it was skillprogramming maybe?)where a dude was drawing on a whiteboard and an AI program was using those drawings to convert everything to actual Html and CSS (live).

    Lol I hope you understand what I'm asking.

    Thanks!

    Using PayPal with multiple sellers, but getting a sale confirmation to my server?

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 03:25 PM PDT

    Sorry if that title doesn't make sense, I'm unsure how to word this.

    I have a set of files that people pay to access. Each file is owned by a different person. I don't want to collect the money myself and then pay the file owner, that's a lot of time and liability. Ideally, I would have a way that the customer could pay the owner of the file directly using PayPal, and PayPal would then inform MY server the payment is complete and then allow access to the file (basically I'd have my own payment history database).

    I was thinking about using a PayPal buy button with a hidden field for the return, but then I was thinking it might be pretty insecure because people could change the price in the hidden field and I would have no way to know they paid the full amount.

    I have enough contact with the file owners to get an API key from them, but I cannot get, nor do I want, their PayPal login info.

    I'm not really sure the best method to go about this. I haven't used PayPal for development in a long time.

    Has anyone done anything similar? I would greatly appreciate any suggestions you may have!

    First FT Job Interview - have any tips for an anxious introvert?

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 05:53 AM PDT

    I'm f/21/grad and going to my first full-time job interview tomorrow for the company I am already employed under (part time, similar web dev position). I spent all weekend working on a project they gave me to showcase at the interview, so I didn't have a lot of time to look up advice on the interview itself.

    All I really know about it is that it'll be a 45-minute long interview. I have a feeling it's with a full review board or panel, and I have severe social anxiety so this is making me really stressed. Any & all tips appreciated!

    I might be in over my head. Looking for guidance with grouping lat/lng points into clusters

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 10:48 AM PDT

    I have a project for a client where they want to display a bunch of lat/lng points on a map using google maps API. That's the easy part. The hard part is they want to group these lat/lng points into clusters based on proximity, with a soft cap of ten points per cluster. Each point must be in a group, and the tighter the cluster the better. Also, the lat/lng points are dynamic based on user data, so I can't rely on fixed data.

    I know how to cluster different points with the markerClusterer API. The problem I'm running into is exactly how to cluster these points in the best way possible. The way I see it, I could approach it one of two ways:

    1. Start with the most condensed cluster of points and work my way out. This might mean looping over the points until I reach 10, getting the size of land covered by the bounds of the points, then as the loop continues checking if other points fall within the bounds and switching out those points with the points at the edge of the bounds, until I have the tightest cluster possible. The problem here is I will end up with a lot of outlier points that don't mesh well with any group.
    2. Start with the problem points, I.E. the points that fall at the edge of the total bounds of all the points, then group those first, working my way in. This strategy incorporates the business logic that all points must belong to a group, so get the worst ones out of the way first. The problem here is I will end up with clusters that are not the tightest possible.

    With either approach, I can't seem to find a solution that doesn't perform a ridiculous amount of loops. Once one cluster is decided, I need to loop back over my points and exclude the clusters already in a group. I don't foresee the dataset getting so large that this is a deal breaker, but I know it is clunky. This is not code I would want to pass onto the client browser. I'd instead want to perform it server side via an admin action, hopefully store the clustering in the database after running the action once, then have the data ready to present to the view.

    I am not the best at algorithms, so I think that is tripping me up here. I know there must be a really good programming solution to handle this problem, but I am having a hard time coming up with it. Anyone have any guidance or has anyone run into this kind of business need before?

    Trustworthy Chrome Extensions, by default

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 12:21 PM PDT

    I wrote a Library for rendering UI. (sigh another one of those...)

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 02:13 PM PDT

    Link to library: https://github.com/muggy8/proxymity

    Proxymity is a pure javascript 2-way data-binding library inspired by angularjs that allows you to build UI and bind them to data so that any changes that happens to the data is reflected into the view without any other commands. Unlike angularjs however, is the fact that this library only handles the data binding and doesn't care for when or how you do any of your other processes such as AJAX calls or async operations.

    ​

    Additionally, the library only updates exactly the elements that needs to be updated instead of every element that could be updated (like angularjs except it's scope based) or creating a whole mini dom tree to per update (like React). It is also entirely built and ran in javascript meaning it doesn't need any pre-processors which makes it easy to use for simple projects.

    ​

    Feel free to give the library a look see and provide any feedback that you have.

    Tools to expand services/skillset

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 04:31 PM PDT

    So long story short, due to illness I could no longer do my regular work in IT and over the past year have started freelancing doing websites for small businesses.

    I am proficient in HTML/CSS/PHP and passable in several others.

    At the moment, I offer a fixed package which includes email/web/database hosting, and a monthly report on visitor stats.

    I am looking at ways to offer more services that I can charge an ongoing monthly fee for, things like ongoing SEO services.

    I don't want to take on too much work due to my health, but looking for anything that I could spend a hour or two each week on for each customer that is willing to pay.

    Any suggestions on either tools or courses I can use to expand my skills and offer more services would be appreciated.

    Off the shelf solution for REST API with secure authentication and authorization?

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 04:18 PM PDT

    I'm building a single page application and on the server side, I just need an API for database access. The db will hold user accounts and other user data.

    I know that rolling my own security is a no-go since there are thousands of possible and creative exploits to account for so I'm looking for a well maintained off-the-shelf solution that has some good adoption.

    The language is not that important but I'd rather it not be PHP. Node / JS is fine, Python is fine.

    I don't want to build the thing from modular parts either, it is so damn hard to properly secure multiple unrelated libraries talking to each other.

    I think Django fits the bill but is feels like it is a bit of an overkill for this. Django + Django REST framework has everything I want actually but I'm looking for other opinions.

    If you know a "backend as a service" that does just this, that is fine too. I just want users signing up, interacting with the site, saving their data to db to their own accounts, login, logout, forgot password and other amenities bundled together through a REST interface. Any help?

    Is there a way for me to get a notification if a page's results change?

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 04:01 PM PDT

    Sorry if this is the wrong place to post. I know nothing about web development.

    Basically, I would like to keep an eye on my voter registration status, and receive some type of notification, like an email, if the status changes from "Active" to anything else.

    I don't know if there is a form or something? The page requires entering some personal information to check, like my district, name, birthday, and license number. I don't know if that makes things harder. I'm just curious if this is realistic or what.

    Here's the page I'm hoping to check: http://voter.azsos.gov/VoterView/RegistrantSearch.do

    301 redirect questions

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 03:19 PM PDT

    Hello, All!

    I searched a little and couldn't find too much info so thought I would just make a post.

    I have a wordpress site hosted on AWS and am trying to get 301 redirect with ssl to a www subdomain to work so all requests to mysite.com go to r/https://www.mysite.com. I installed an auto letsencrypt generator package and the ssl seems to work fine. I tried my best to configure the htaccess file to redirect and it seemed to work ok but testing more I see I can get to just regular old r/http://www.mysite.com. Redirecting to www seems to work but can't get it to force to https. I have domain on google domains and the 301 redirect dns option doesn't seem to work well at all and id rather do it on the htaccess file anyways. I guess what im asking is where do I start to get this done properly? I'm no expert but im savy enough to edit the server files but just can't seem to get it to work. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    ExactTarget and html opinions for a noob, please!

    Posted: 01 Oct 2018 03:08 PM PDT

    I have an interview coming up for an email marketing specialist position and the company uses ExactTarget. I have no experience in ET, but I've been trying to due my due diligence when it comes to coding. I've used other email automation marketing tools and I'm wondering how easy/hard would it be to learn and grasp ET? I'm assuming software like this has text editors or templates built into the program already, and is able to create reports that can be downloaded without too much fuss? Thanks!

    Best editor for viewing large .log files?

    I'm using Atom right now, and viewing some of my error log files (100Mb) is causing it to lock up and make for pretty crappy scrolling.
