    EU has passed Article 13 which is a death knell to small bloggers and individual website owners across EU

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 04:06 AM PDT

    This new law gives a carte blanche right to copyright holders across EU to scrutinize any content on your website and penalize you if THEY deemed it violates their copyright.

    Whether its a blog post or a comment someone has posted, you (as the website owner) will be held legally responsible from now onward.

    Perhaps the only consolation would be if you are not an EU citizen and your website also isn't hosted in EU. But if they get away with this, how long until others like US and Australia follow suit?

    Of course, big companies like Google and Microsoft have got both technical resources to scan their website for copyright violations and legal resources to fight copyright trolls. But as a small blogger or site owner, what will YOU do?

    Please share your thoughts on this.

    Should I choose vanilla JavaScript or ReactJS?

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 01:21 PM PDT

    I wish to write a simple website which only describes features and development of a product. Does not have much interactive content, so should I go with React or simple vanilla JS is okay? I am just confused if using React for this would be like using a sword to cut your bread.

    Google Domains asking for photo ID

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 12:48 PM PDT

    Has anyone received this before?

    Been using Google Domains for years, first time receiving an email about Account Verification.

    It asks for both Address Proof with my full name + address and a Gov ID.

    That sounds crazy, I've bought domains for years and no registrar has ever asked for such info. I'm not sending my photo ID to Google.

    Email says I have 2 weeks to respond, should I unlock all my domains and bail?

    [Update] It's because of a recent .dev Google TLD purchase.

    React.js webdev - interview prep materials?

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 01:33 PM PDT

    I am applying for summer internships doing web development. I have a great portfolio of work, but haven't been doing any web dev for the past 6 months and just bombed an interview. (React.js and general web dev interview) I'm confident in my ability to code, so I'm not really looking for a textbook on react/js. I mostly need to brush up on syntax details that I never bothered to memorize, so I'm looking for a resource geared towards webdev interview prep rather than one teaching concepts, if that makes sense. Anything I should check out? I'm currently looking at cracking the coding interview (seems a bit too general) and doing suggested hackerrank problems right now, but I'd like a more focused study path. I have another interview next Friday, so I'll be prepping all weekend. Wish me luck!

    TLDR: Can anyone recommend a good resource for web dev interview prep? (react.js & general webdev)

    [UK] How much would you charge to create basic static pages for local businesses?

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 03:44 PM PDT

    Hi guys!

    I think it'd be a great idea to start creating some basic websites for small businesses near to me to gain some experience.

    I wouldn't be doing it for the money per se, but I hear it's bad practice to do work for nothing.

    So I'm curious, how much would you charge to build a basic static website for something like a restaurant?

    I know it can vary wildly but would love to hear some responses, thanks guys!

    I feel so stupid.

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 03:15 PM PDT

    I'm sure some of you will probably write that it's a normal feeling. But wtv. I feel so stupid when I try to do this. It's been almost a year and I feel like I've gotten nowhere. I always scroll this sub and others, and people talk about all these things I;ve never heard or even seen. It's overwhelming.

    Anyways, I'm just trying to do small things. And I cant even seem to get that right. Then I look at other people's work and the code is almost the same, yet theirs works and mind doesn't.

    Anyways, I jsut wanna post a link and can someone, for the love of god, just tell me what the hell is wrong and why its not showing up the way I want it to.

    I'm already embarassed by how simplistic the thing is and that I am probably doing the entire thing wrong. But wtv.

    It's in AngularJS.

    1) I'm just trying to do a bookmarker. I tried it with Javascript LocalStorage and it was getting me nowhere, even after copying tutorials. So I just tried AngularJS. And it's still not working. What's wrong?.

    2) It's a simple page with a modal button and when you click it, it's suppose to open. I know that bootstrap has a toggle feature for that but I wanted to do it with AngularJS, and it's not working. There will be more to the feature, but the initial stage of getting the modal to open isn't working. What's wrong?.

    Thanks.

    Image hosting solution

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 02:25 PM PDT

    Hello everyone,

    I am building my own CMS as experiment and I am looking for any tips regarding image hosting.
    I think that storing and managing images on my own is not really ideal as I tried it and I had problems with keeping system performant while dealing with a lots of image uploads, creating thumbnails, caching them, etc.

    Therefore I decided to do some research about other ways how to deal with images uploaded by users. Ideally I do not want to deal with image/album uploading at all. My vision of the system is that user uploads photos somewhere else and hosting service would provide me API to list all images/albums.

    System workflow vision:

    1. User wants to add photos from todays event so he does that on [image hosting provider]. He creates new album and uploads all these photos into album, then play a bit with the order of the images.
    2. Then user wants to post new blog post and CMS takes care of that. CMS will get list of images and albums from the [image hosting provider] via API and user will pick what images/albums should be added to new blog post he is writing.
    3. User submits and visit a preview of the blog post. CMS in the background will call API endpoint to get list of all images in album and display them. [image hosting provider] should be also serving different dimensions of image so I do not have to worry about resizing and serve the best possible resolution for all types of screens.

    What I've tried:

    1. Facebook Graph API. I thought Facebook would be ideal but permissions are somehow strange. I was asked to submit my app for a review while trying to get albums of public page. Why?! It is public and you can view it even without logging in Facebook.
    2. Google photos API seems very limited and it is hard to browse.

    What are the possible image hosting providers:

    1. Imgur

    Imgur seems promising. I can create hidden/secret albums, manage the order of images, get all images, get all albums. I can even get public posts without too much hassle with API. The only thing that bothers me is that they resize image only up to 1024px (huge thumbnail) and the better quality is only the original file. But I have workaround for that.

    Do you know any other image hosting service provider that would fit my workflow? Or do you suggest different approach to solve this headache? Thank you.

    Thoughts on Fiverr for web design?

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 02:22 PM PDT

    Hey,

    So I started my own limited web development business about 4 months ago. This was just a small thing that I am doing along side my main web-dev job.

    Now I have been trying to get it off the ground but before I go after customers I want to have a smart modern looking website. I have tried to do the design 4 times now but because I am a perfectionist with this sort of stuff I can't make myself happy with how it looks (which is why I dodged a career in design).

    Anyway because I haven't been able to design a website I am proud of I have held off working on a few customers that have asked me to build them sites (friends and family - leads that I can't lose anytime soon as they said they would wait for me).

    Now originally I planned on using Fiverr for all of my clients sites with the design and I would code them all myself and implement Wordpress to them, do the back-end PHP, ect...

    I am just looking for anyone's opinions on Fiverr for landing page design? I got my logo created from someone on there and am really happy with it. Should I spend the £50 - £200 on a landing page design for my site on Fiverr or are there better designers elsewhere within that budget?

    Bonus Question, what do you think would work better for a web dev companies design? A more business style (example: https://gritdigital.co.uk/) or a more digital/techy style (example: https://www.moberries.com/)?

    Any replies are much appreciated :)

    Why does adding precision to a decimal require drop and recreate?

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 01:26 PM PDT

    I'm pretty hot right now. I obviously understand how to conserve data and recreate tables, but I need someone to explain to me why this is needed. To me its common fucking sense that if you expand a decimal field append zeros to the prior entries.

    Please someone explain this to me, because I assume there is a reason that I don't know.

    What is the best cam for a downloadable content site?

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 01:24 PM PDT

    Edit— title - I meant CMS, not cam

    I'd like to have photos for download with space for ads. Wordpress has plugins but seems slow for this sort of thing? How are these sties made to accommodate traffic and downloads? Ruby?

    I always thought the 24-48 hours wait to change Name Server is a myth. Until I used GoDaddy...

    Posted: 27 Mar 2019 02:26 AM PDT

    I have been primarily using NameCheap and a local registrar for the past 6 years. They always have warning that it may takes 24-48 hours to change NS but it's usually done within 1-2 hours.

    So I thought like "Ehh.. maybe just in case their system down or something".

    Yesterday I'm working on this client who keeps his domain in GoDaddy. I went to change the NS and HOLY DAMN it's been 32 hours now and not finished yet!

    Checking with https://www.whatsmydns.net only shows 2 countries that have finished propagating.

    Is this common on other Domain registrar?

    Thanks
