Recommendations on where to post job openings for full-stack devs? Posted: 31 Dec 2018 01:10 PM PST I have two openings for full-stack LAMP developer positions. I've posted on /r/forhire, authenticjobs.com, linkedin.com, our industry's primary job board, weworkremotely.com and a few Craigslists. I reviewed roughly 40 resumes. I interviewed 16 candidates last week. Of them, 6 were keepers until we got their salary requirements. Once salary requirements were provided, only one is a potential keeper. Where are people finding and hiring semi-skilled webdevs from? In the 10 years I've been with the company, we've only added one tech person, so my knowledge of the recruiting scene isn't the sharpest. submitted by /u/loki_racer [link] [comments]

How do I make the code for my Full-Stack website public on Github without having vulnerabilities? Posted: 31 Dec 2018 10:56 AM PST I made a demo application which tries to emulate social media platforms like Instagram/Twitter/Facebook. It uses Angular in the Front-End connected to a NodeJS server and a MongoDB database. My question is, if I make it public then I would be releasing information such as how to connect to the database or how passwords are being encrypted since this is stored on the server's codebase. The reason I want to make it public is so that employers can see it. Is there any way I can get around this? submitted by /u/Jake1122 [link] [comments]

ASP.NET Web API user authentication Posted: 31 Dec 2018 03:20 PM PST Hey! I'm learning how to use ASP.NET Web API, and I don't really understand how to do secure user authentication, I have googled things like JWT but I didn't understand how they work really, can anyone help me understand how to do that? submitted by /u/sasasiassa [link] [comments]

Getting tired of React Posted: 31 Dec 2018 07:36 AM PST Hi webdevs here. I have a question to ask. Am I the only one getting literally tired of developing with react? Having to create 3 different files for an action (action creator, types, reducers for redux and the component file) and maintaining all became so exhausting especially if I am starting a project from scratch. Also handling inputs with onChange events and the burden of doing everything manually leads to the exhaustion of deciding between packages. All these problems make me wanna go back to Angular 1 after working with react for over 2 years or switch to Vue. (I have made a couple pet projects with vue, and loved the comfort though). What do you think about this? Do you have methods to reduce this tiresome things working with React? Note: I have tried Mobx, worked with redux-thunk etc. so I am pretty experienced with react ecosystem. submitted by /u/kucukkanat [link] [comments]

Here's a tough one: aside from sugars, energy drinks, coffee... how do you manage to keep yourself focused? Posted: 31 Dec 2018 11:00 AM PST Hello! I am not completely sure this is a question for this particular subreddit, but there it goes! I feel like I depend too much on coffee and other substances (legal ones lol) to maintain my concentration level when it comes to programming. This sedentary lifestyle is not helping my system, so I ask of you elders of the internet, how do you manage to stay focused when sugars, energy drinks or coffee are not an option (if ever)? ​ I am eyeing a small routine by exercising in the mornings and using the leftover adrenaline to code. Who knows if it'll work.... ​ Looking forward to your replies! :D submitted by /u/doymond [link] [comments]

Should I keep my previous experience on my resume? Posted: 31 Dec 2018 05:19 AM PST I'm a former EE applying around for web dev roles. People are suggesting that I keep irrelevant experience off, but I'm not exactly sure what 'irrelevant' entails. I have some personal webdev projects I'm going to put on there, but I also have previous experience programming FPGAs and performing simulations in MATLAB from my previous EE jobs, it's not directly relevant to web dev but still shows some programming skills to an extent, should I keep it on my resume? submitted by /u/Sleples [link] [comments]

Has 2FA/MFA for apps went too far? Posted: 31 Dec 2018 12:23 PM PST I understand 2FA for web sites and web apps may be a necessary evil. As I install more mobile apps to access accounts and services, I notice I'm having to re-authenticate more and 2FA is becoming more prevalent and much more of a nuisance. Does anyone else feel that SMS auth to access an app on same phone is a little self-defeating? Additionally, don't most folks, especially with critical apps on their phone, keep it passcode locked anyway? It seems all this sending us through hoops to access apps defeats the purpose of installing an app in the first place, which is to have easy one-touch access to the information. And if someone has access to the app itself, they will also have access to SMS/email to retrieve the code. It seems like we must be headed for some other, more integrated mode of authentication that provides the necessary security, privacy AND convenience. What are your thoughts?? submitted by /u/boxcomp [link] [comments]

How to toggle overlay in Google Maps API? Posted: 31 Dec 2018 12:07 PM PST I am using this code to display nautical charts over Google maps. Everything works as expected. How can I add a checkbox to toggle the overlay on and off? submitted by /u/Produkt [link] [comments]

Mp4 embedded into HTML won't play? Posted: 31 Dec 2018 11:36 AM PST I'm testing a webpage that is supposed to have an embedded video, but the video won't play. The file is hosted locally and I've tested it running locally in VLC and it works fine. The website displays an initial image from the MP4 file referenced, and it is the correct size, but the image is static. Why won't the video play? ​ Here is the code: <video width="80%" height="500" autoplay> <source src="videos/parkinglotcam.mp4" type="video/mp4"/> </video submitted by /u/namocaw [link] [comments]

Help finding login system tutorials? Posted: 31 Dec 2018 11:23 AM PST I'm looking to create a login system (let me know if there's a technical name for it please) for a resume website to show I know how to manage users and passwords but I don't know exactly what I'm looking for. An Internship wants me to learn mySQL and nodejs so that would be preferable but I'll take what I get. Thanks! TLDR: I'm looking for recommendations for a login system tutorial. submitted by /u/SirSurreal55 [link] [comments]

What kind of API is this? Posted: 31 Dec 2018 11:04 AM PST https://api.recruitsosimple.co.uk/?action=webint&page=vacancies&key=yCANntWSIH67JHukZoDaHZ ​ How would we use the API on on something like this? I'm used to JSON API and I've never seen an API formatted in this way? Is there a name for this kind of API? submitted by /u/EducationalRat [link] [comments]

Profiling / Sourcing information on CSS filter: blur() perf / battery impact? Posted: 31 Dec 2018 10:40 AM PST So I've contributed a small PR to a fairly popular package in a framework, it's just improving their blur-up effect by using the CSS blur filter(they're presently just stretching a 20px wide thumb to the loading images intended display size(it fades out once the actual image is loaded), that's often imo a bit ugly and the blur filter smooths that out. Several contributor/team members have voiced concern about performance / battery impact on mobile users by accepting it(at least as a default). There was plenty of articles back in 2012 and up to around 2015 where it slowed down about how using effects like the CSS filter blur was bad for mobile content. Usually it was due to the dev applying it to a header/hero image fullscreen size, and/or using a overly large blur size(>50px). There's also the issue of when it was being rendered by CPU(and certain usages like animation/relayout would repaint/reapply the blur filter. Fairly certain these days the major browsers have this effect GPU accelerated now? Mobile hardware has come a long way too over the years, even budget hardware should be pretty capable. And for the use-case, it's just for producing a nicer aesthetic with better blur(similar to what Medium has, although they use Canvas to rasterize the result and ensure no recomputation happens), the effect wouldn't be visible/applied for that long, once the actual image loads in the placeholder/preview has it's opacity set to 0. Chrome dev tools used to have a continuous paint mode, that'd have been helpful. I don't have much experience profiling stuff like this, so any advice would be good :) TL;DR: Any way that I can show using CSS blur filter on a placeholder while loading the real image shouldn't be a huge concern for smartphone user? submitted by /u/kwhali [link] [comments]
