| I have utmost respect for DevOps. Posted: 31 Jan 2019 10:16 AM PST I am a backend developer at a pretty big company ( not going to namedrop ) and it's an amazing job. We work in teams and the environment is awesome and the people are so intelligent. I have no experience in DevOps. If docker is a part of DevOps then my knowledge is limited to docker. Today I met a DevOps engineer at my office and he really in a bad state. I bit of context is required for understanding the situation. Our company has edge servers running go and redis. So last day there where some major upgrades, the team responsible for the edge servers tested everything and it was deployed to the cluster. The moment it was online everything started to fail and our core api servers stopped working. It was shit show all day and took us three hours to find and fix it. It was a weird redis issue with some clusterfuck Kubernetes. So today I came in and went to DevOps as I need a server to test some GraphQL API. And then I met the Rick ( not his real name ). Dude got a insane red eye with a trembling hands. I thought that he was diabetic and had a lot of candy or he was on drugs. I asked if he's alright and then he said about the last day outage. He was awake from 4am and was trying to manage the outage by forwarding the traffic to the next cluster and also trying to find the bug simultaneously. DevOps engineer are so amazing. We all think that serverless is awesome and now I can deploy my Todo app in second but no one thing about the person who manages those servers. And when shit hits and something doesn't work, these are people who manage and maintain. To all the DevOps engineer you are amazing and intelligent. Thank you for taking care of the internet.

| Posted: 30 Jan 2019 05:32 PM PST I began programming in February of 2018 and just received my first official offer for a junior software engineering position, which I intend to take. It's a very good offer and I feel like I owe a portion of it to this sub and others related to development. Absolutely ecstatic and just wanted to share my excitement and appreciation for this sub! For some context I work in the web development space, non traditional developer (aka self taught/no CS degree) and focus on the MERN stack. My offer is for 65k with handsome benefits and I'm a 23 y/o male in NC. I have a Bachelors of Arts degree in a non tech degree field. Never give up, that's all I can say. Edit: it took maniacal effort and upwards of 5-8 hours a day, 7 days a week of hard work Edit 2: one of the most important words of advice I would give myself looking back, is COMMENT WHEN WRITING CODE. Doesn't matter if it's a solo project, write well thought out, coherent/concise comments. Future reviewers of your code will commend you and future you will thank you [link] [comments]  | ||
| Embarrassed by bad code at work Posted: 31 Jan 2019 06:31 AM PST I had to write some ugly huge bulky monster code because I felt time pressured by the people above me. If I had some time I could have made it all pretty and efficiently but now I have to commit this horrid thing. Does anyone else struggle with this? Should I bring up to my superior that I consider my code bad and if I had more time it would be better? I hate deadlines >:[ [link] [comments]  | ||
| 4+ years dev who needs to "learn" Dev Fundamentals. what should I need to know? Posted: 31 Jan 2019 08:53 AM PST So, as the title says I've been a developer for more than four years, working with JavaScript, React, PHP and other languages, mainly Angular framework. I'm unemployed ATM since my last project got cancelled 3 weeks before. I've applied to a lot of jobs and they all say the same to me: That I have the experience and know a lot, but my main lack is regarding basic concepts of the things I use. I.e. I've used closure functions but when they asked me what was the purpose of using them I didn't knew what to answer. I'm not an engineer actually, I'm a publicist so I guess this lack of the basic knowledge is kind of common, so I ask you to point me in the right direction about what themes should I start to read about.

| Posted: 31 Jan 2019 04:40 AM PST Having a conversation with some seniors developers and they believe because I use a front end framework EG Vue js it makes me less than a developer than them? I didn't understand this mindset and wonder if anyone else has ever been confronted with this as it makes me second judge the choices I made with my stack. [link] [comments]  | ||
| What is your oldest ( possibly first ) still publicly available creation on the web? Posted: 31 Jan 2019 01:09 PM PST I'm curious, what is your oldest/first publicly available creation online? Please do share, let's see some sites with Comic Sans, visitor counters and animated gif backgrounds :) Here is my 20 yo site surprisingly still available on the formal dialup internet provider's free storage http://solair.eunet.rs/~beginner/index.htm [ I also posted this to r/web_design , people are not to eager to share older stuff :) ] [link] [comments]  | ||
| What's the average that you charge per hour? Posted: 31 Jan 2019 09:19 AM PST I've applied for a company which is asking me how much I'm going to charge per hour of work (in dollars). This is kind of a hard question for me since I live outside the US so I think some of you could give me a hand with it. I'm a 4 years experience developer, with experience in JavaScript, PHP, NodeJS, Angular2+. How much do you think I can charge that isa common or standard price? [link] [comments]  | ||
| How can I stop being an idiot web developer? Posted: 31 Jan 2019 11:48 AM PST I've been working as a web developer for almost a year after graduating with an unrelated degree. I work in a somewhat unusual situation, where my supervisor (and only other dev at the company) works remotely in another state. As a result, I code alone and make many decisions independently. Unfortunately, these usually turn out to be the wrong decisions and he has to then spend time fixing them. For example: I choose to rely on a library to simplify things and avoid reinventing the wheel in a crucial part of our application, but I fail to realize that the library doesn't jive with our data structure and doesn't do everything we need it to. The code needs to be rewritten. I add a feature which I think works pretty well, but then it either doesn't work on my supervisor's machine or there are numerous things which he needs to fix. The code needs to be rewritten. I add items as a field on our database documents, but they'd be better stored in a subcollection. The code needs to be rewritten. I feel that every change I make is riddled with holes which need to be filled and that the app takes two steps backward each time I try to commit one step forward. Is this usual or am I just way out of my league? How can I stop making such idiotic mistakes as a developer? [link] [comments]  | ||

| Paid vs Free SSL certificates? Posted: 31 Jan 2019 11:29 AM PST The company I work at has an ecommerce website that I recently set up for them using WordPress. When I set it up, I used a free SSL certificate from letsencrypt.org. The company still had an old SSL certificate from GoDaddy that is coming up for renewal soon. Should I be using the paid SSL cert over the free one? I found this article that implies the paid one is worth it for ecommerce, but I feel like it could be outdated. So what's the deal with SSL certs? What are the advantages of the GoDaddy cert over the Letsencrypt one? Thanks. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Pros and cons of Jekyll, JSON, or PHP objects for (very) simple product catalog Posted: 31 Jan 2019 02:37 PM PST So my mom is starting to make some handmade products and wants a website, just to list her products, and she won't be updating the site. It's just one page, with 2 buttons that toggle between a <div> that displays her about section and a <div> that displays a list of her products, which are grouped together in Collections. IMO it's too simple for Wordpress, and I already have a design coded, so I have two options:
Both seem to accomplish the same task and could easily be managed and deployed with git. Am I missing anything? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Issue with controlling website cookies Posted: 31 Jan 2019 02:32 PM PST Hey all, I've designed a mailchimp newsletter pop-up form to trigger with an onclick function, however after a user enters their email, the button no longer triggers the pop-up. I've tried numerous ways to control the cookie expiration but continue to have the issue. I imagine it could be from the mailchimp servers since the pop-ups are controlled from their platform, but before I contact them I wanted to troubleshoot my code with you. This is the button This is the script. I've omitted my UUID and LID. Any ideas why the pop-up would fail to load after a user submits their email? The button works every single time, UNTIL the user enters their email, then it doesn't load again. Thanks for your help, sorry if this post violates any sub rules. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Downloading a video using chrome devtools from xhr fragments Posted: 31 Jan 2019 08:25 AM PST Hello, I hope I'm in the right place with this question; if not, I apologize. (I searched for "Chrome devtools" and found some posts in /r/chrome, but most in /r/programming or in this subreddit.) I am trying to download a video from a weblecture at my university, so that I can watch it later offline. I've managed to get the majority of lectures from this particular course using the Chrome devtools, but for the last few lectures, the video files do not show up under "Media" in the "Network" tab of the Devtools, the way they did for the earlier lectures I managed to download. Instead, a large number of xhr files are shown, with more generated as the video continues to play. Some are labeled "Fragments(audio=[some number],format=mpd-isoff)" and others "Fragments(video=[some number],format=mpd-isoff)". If I try to open these in a new tab, a video player loads, but no video is played in it, and it will not let me download anything. Is there a way to still download such a video? If so, how would I do it? Thanks in advance. [link] [comments]  | ||

| It's been nine months since graduation. Not a single phone call for an interview yet. Posted: 31 Jan 2019 01:51 PM PST I'm defeated. I've been defeated. I graduated last April in a Web Development program and I have been applying to jobs ever since. I won't lie and say I've been sending out dozens of apps every day; I've been applying once or twice a week. But each time I sit down, I apply seriously with proper time taken for each application, to at least ten places that day. Whenever I find job postings, it feels like I know absolute nothing about anything in this market, even though I have a diploma. Most of the time postings ask for 5+ requirements (languages/frameworks/etc), and I might have one or two, but I apply anyway because that's the best I got. I'm currently dealing with a recruitment agency as of early January, and I was told my resume is fine and he could not think of any changes. I'm not posting it on here in anxiousness of someone that knows me finds this. I am embarrassed and ashamed that it's been this long and I have not had a single contact. If I was getting rejections from interviews, it's fine, I have something to learn. But now I'm stuck in nothingness and it feels disgusting. Apologies for the post feeling like a rant rather than asking for help, but I could use every shred of help here. Why am I not even getting acknowledged by recruiters? My information on the resume is accurate. According to some friends, peers in the field, and a recruiting agent, my resume looks good. Where are the phone calls? Am I supposed to just suck it up and multiply the number of applications I send, even if they start to become half-assed, until I hear something? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Getting ready to rebuild my portfolio, want to learn a new stack Posted: 31 Jan 2019 09:59 AM PST My portfolio is old and outdated. It was built on a LAMP stack with no frameworks and I want to update it while also updating my toolbox. My problem is that I don't know where to start. I've read some things about Docker and Vagrant, and I've experimented with Node (Express), Vue, and Laravel in the past but never enough to be fully comfortable using them. I primarily want an environment where I can build a simple portfolio site, probably single page, with some kind of build tool for production roll-out. I have 2 servers that run Debian and lighttpd for hosting and plan to host my finished portfolio on one of these. Any advice on where to start? [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 31 Jan 2019 01:24 PM PST Hi there! Living in Toronto, Canada. IT degree. Work for an eCommerce company in UX Analytics. Not a big fan of my company/job, and would like to move into development this year. I'm comfortable with the MERN stack but I will need to put together a portfolio before applying. I've just about had it with my company, I see that I'm so close to getting into development and just want to get out of this job asap. My question is, how might recruiters for a jr. position perceive a "gap" in my resume. i.e. worked for e-commerce company, progressively received more responsibility, left the company and for a few months freelanced before applying there. Worst case, best case, realistic case scenarios are welcome. Thanks! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Methods to reduce content within a div that is 100vh Posted: 31 Jan 2019 09:35 AM PST Interested to hear how other people deal with this. Imagery and videos are not so much of a problem but getting text to reduce down with the users device height and width is something I am interested in. [link] [comments]  | ||
