    After 8 years I don't think I want to be a developer anymore. Any advice on what I could transition to?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 09:58 AM PDT

    This is NOT meant to bash web developers or web development. I'm just looking for advice for me. I've been a developer for 8 years now and I don't think I enjoy it anymore. But I'm not sure what else I can do. I'm currently unemployed and am looking for a job. But I don't really know what else I'd enjoy. Product owners jobs have always seemed interesting, but I don't know if I can transition straight to that from development. Any one else been through this? Got any advice for me?

    When to use a Statically Generated Site Compared to a WordPress site?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 07:45 AM PDT

    I am at an agency that has primarily developed websites using WordPress, where we would fully build a custom theme and functionality for that client using the normal WordPress templating engine and PHP. A decent bit of our clients are the usual information website where it discusses what the company does and may have a blog or something of that sort. These websites usually are very static with content with the occasion blog post or update to a page.

    ​

    That is why I thought developing these sites statically would be beneficially to these projects because of the infrequency in content updates, where these sites could be built using Vue/Nuxt and pull content for an API. This would benefit the client with better page speeds and better security.

    ​

    I talked to my boss about this and he liked the idea, but was hesitant to move in that direction due to the familiarity we have with WordPress, but also the simplicity/time-saving we receive from using WordPress plugins like Gravity Forms, Event Calendar, and simple plug and play plugins. Where now instead of just installing those plugins and configuring them to what we need we would need to build that functionality ourselves within the statically generated website.

    ​

    I understand his concern, but feel statically generated websites would improve performance on informational style websites, but maybe just configuring WordPress with caching, minification, etc would be enough.

    ​

    Would love to hear other viewpoints on this topic or if anyone else had a similar issue at an agency and what direction you went.

    Struggling to find Jr. Dev job - any advice?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 08:38 AM PDT

    I got a really sweet jr. front end developer job earlier this year only to be laid off four later in April in due to downsizing. I've applied to well over 150 jobs since then and have not gotten any offers. I took an unrelated data analyst contract job in July because, well, I'd been unemployed for three months and was down to my last $200.

    The feedback I get the most consistently is that they like me, they're impressed with my resume, but they need more experience. So I'm really struggling to find experience without having experience.

    My area of knowledge is in the MERN stack from my certificate. I worked heavily in the major CMS's (WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla primarily), and have some basic SQL, Python, and SQL. I'm working to get better at React, as well as striving to expand my knowledge to the back end. I live about 50 miles out of Boston, so that would be my closest market.

    Firing off my resume has not worked. I'm not sure if it's my resume that needs work, if it's the fact that I'm looking to leave my current role so soon, or if there are certain projects I should work on. I'm adding more networking events into my schedule (including a day-long free code camp event this weekend I'm looking forward to), and trying to find projects to work on or ways to improve past projects. Or if there are adjacent jobs I'm unaware of that could grow into a dev role. I've been working with two recruiters, but they don't have anything other than DBA roles or developer jobs looking for senior level experience.

    It's hard to stay encouraged when it's been almost seven months and no bites. I'm severely depressed to be quite honest, and feel like I don't have any hope of a career in this field, making all the money and time spent a waste. I guess I'm looking for advice, encouragement, or something.

    Can't get idea for project.

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 10:36 AM PDT

    So I've had web development as a course in my college for last 3 months. Have learned HTML, CSS and the basics of JavaScript by now. I was really interested in this field in the beginning and thought that this is what I'll try to do in the future but now as the end of the course is coming near they asked us to submit a website as a project and i've been trying and trying but I still haven't got a satisfactory or unique design for the website. Everytime I just try to start coding the basics out I lose motivation because it just doesn't feel good enough. This has really started bothering me and giving me double thoughts about my choice. Please explain to me that how should I proceed now?

    Help with billing AFK hours

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 03:47 PM PDT

    Hey guys,

    So basically I am downloading a looooot of files from my clients web host. It is going to take a few hours.

    Obviously I am not really doing work during those hours, its just downloading. But it is still using power and bandwith.

    My question is, how do you go about billing this kind of work. Do I do a flat amount and charge it as power or overheads? Do I record the hours it downloaded and charge at my usual rate or a reduced rate? Do I take the power cost on the chin?

    How do YOU go about doing this or what would you think is right. Please also let me know if its what you think or if you have actually used your method on a client before and what was there view on it?

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Hosting for Static Websites

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 09:11 AM PDT

    I'm trying to figure out how to minimize the costs for running my websites, while also minimizing the page load speed. I have around 10 static websites (and 2 Ruby API services running on Docker). So I need 1 VM and some way to host the static websites.

    Currently I host everything on virtual machines on ScaleWay, with 5 sites on each, and then use Cloudflare to proxy the traffic. I know there must be a better way. I've been thinking about using AWS (either S3 or Amplify), but I'm not sure about what it would cost compared to now (I pay $10/month right now).

    • How are you hosting your static websites?
    • What services do you use?
    • How fast is it?
    • What is the pricing per month per site?

    Free Angular Hosting for Non-HTTPS websites

    So I am currently looking for free hosting services that will allow me to upload my angular project without HTTPs. Firebase hosting does not allow me to do that and GitHub pages requires a custom domain. Does anybody know any other sites I could potentially use?

    Question regarding PHP and json

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 02:28 PM PDT

    Hi!

    I'm learning PHP right now and I've bumped into a problem that I can't seem to be able to google. So I've got a site that reads the content from a .json file and populates certain parts of the site with texts and images. The problem I've encountered is that I want to implement a input box that allows me to enter the name of another .json file that uses the same format to update my main page with different texts and images. I can't seem to make this work at all and any help would be very appreciated.

    edit: forgot to paste relevant code. So it's from the login.php that I want to send the .json file name from to index.php.

    index.php snippet <body> <?php session_start();

    include("test.php"); static $used=false; if($used==false){ $used=true; $array=startup(); } else{ $array=newfile($_POST['json']); } ?> <div class="grid-container"> <div class="item item1"> <div class="slideshow-container">

     <div class="mySlides fade"> <?php echo "<img src='".$array['news'][0]['imgurl']."'>"; ?> <div class="text">Caption Text</div> </div> <div class="mySlides fade"> <img src="images/sofia.jpg"> <div class="text">Caption Two</div> </div> <div class="mySlides fade"> <img src="images/sofia.jpg"> <div class="text">Caption Three</div> </div> </div> <div class="content"> <h6> <?php echo "<h6>" .$array['news'][0]['title']. "<h6>"; ?> </h6> <?php echo "<p>" .$array['news'][0]['content']. "<p>"; ?> </div> </div> </div>

    test.php code <?php

    $array =[];

    function startup(){

    $strJsonFileContents = file_get_contents("Ass2News.json"); $array = json_decode($strJsonFileContents, true);

    return $array;

    }

    function newfile($str){

    $strJsonFileContents = file_get_contents($str); $array = json_decode($strJsonFileContents, true); return $array;

    } ?>

    login.php snippet

    <div class="login-input"> <?php if (isset($_SESSION['username'])) { logout();

     logoutButton(); } else { if (isset($_GET['status'])) { if ($_GET['status'] == 'reg-success') { echo "<h1 style='color: green;'>new user registered successfully!</h1>"; } else if ($_GET['status'] == 'login-fail') { echo "<h1 style='color: red;'>invalid username and/or password!</h1>"; } } loginform(); } ?> <div class='container'> <div class='blocck'> <form action="index.php" method="post"> Name of file: <input type="text" name="json"><br> <input type="submit" value="submit"> </form> </div> </div>

    How do you with constant interruptions at the office ?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 04:19 AM PDT

    submitButton opens 'undefined' - please help!

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 01:27 PM PDT

    So I got the pop-up template my client modified. The problem may lay somewhere in this piece of code:

    ​

    <div data-v-13fb7982="" class="row row-wrap">

    <a id="submitButton" href="https://www.example.com.br/gto/novidade-dxxx-qc" target="\_blank"><img src="https://xxxxxxx.xxxx.com/media/uploads/uwbej9-xxxxx/popup-novidade-c59c34964536.jpg" data-gtm-trk="true" data-gtm-category="BlackFriday" data-gtm-action="Popup" data-gtm-label="\[Black\] Popup Teaser - Novidade" width="100%"></a>

    </div>

    ​

    The links works perfectly on their own. If I show a pop-up on the page Example.com and click it opens Example.com/undefined and if I show a pop-up on Anotheremaple.com it opens a Anotherexample.com/undefined. Where is the mistake? Please point me in a direction.

    Cheapest FTP server for constant transfers and low storage

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 12:36 PM PDT

    I am looking for the cheapest option for a storage solution that allows for constant FTP file transfers (say once a minute) and a high volume of GET requests. Here is the situation, an airport that is a new client of my company's has a real time flight tracker app. We are going to rebuild this app for them. The data for the app currently is being transferred to a server via FTP something like every minute or two. They want to move away from the current set up and have us manage this. So what I need is an ftp server that can receive data very frequently, and also serve it via a GET request frequently. Amazon S3 charges $. 30 an hour for an ftp endpoint, making for a $200+ monthly bill, which sounds like much for this case. Any advice would really help!

    How do i execute an external js file while staying in the same page?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 11:46 AM PDT

    Basically I used <form action="jsfile.js"> to open an external js file and all it shows me is the actual text from the code (like for example "var myname=" john" and stuff like that) and I want it to instead execute the code inside of the same webpage.

    didn't find a solution googling it altho I did find some people saying you should just use internal code with <script> but I wanted to ask before trying that.

    html-

    <html>

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="CSS Files/homepagestyle.css">

    How to transition from being a front end developer to being a full stack developer?

    Posted: 30 Oct 2019 11:03 AM PDT

    I've been a front end developer for a couple of years, working with React, Angular, Vue, and I want to try myself at something more challenging. I'm not sure, though, what back end technology would be the best to focus on (not counting SQL and MongoDB) and how to proceed from this point. I know a bit of PHP, Python, Node, and Java. What would you recommend and why? Thanks.
