    Anyone else work in an agency, but struggling to switch to software engineering?

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 04:38 PM PDT

    I work at an agency which primarily does custom WordPress and JAMStack marketing sites. However, I'm more passionate about "software engineering ". I like building web applications, using TDD and writing scripts. I have a few small scale web applications in production, but it's been challenging to close the gap. My fear is that I just don't have enough experience with a team to get my foot in the door as a software engineer. Any advice? Anyone else in the same situation?

    How does Netflix/DisneyPlus stop you from print-screening their video player?

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 02:57 AM PDT

    If you've ever tried print-screening your screen while using Netflix, it replaces the window with a black background. How do they achieve this?

    By the way this is on Safari, Chrome and Firefox.

    It's annoying but I understand why they have this feature. It even works if I don't have the current window active.

    Need help with hiring

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 04:08 PM PDT

    This is my first time hiring web developers. I created an MVP and have customers lined up. I have funding for 2 developers. I posted the job on indeed.com and I was specific about the framework (vuejs / google cloud). I received over 100 resumes and narrowed it down to ~15. Some of them have github accounts so I was able to see some of their code.

    What can I do during the hiring process to test their knowledge and efficiency? I'm looking for well structured, clean, maintainable, testable code. Should I give them a code challenge during the interview? Or 'homework' code challenge to submit? Or are there better alternatives to code challenges?

    How best can I setup my MongoDB to fit my needs?

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 03:39 PM PDT

    I have a small project where the structure is like this. There's the top users which we can call admins, then each admin has their own sub page, then for each sub page different users can visit it and leave comments, press a specific button, whatever. These admins then must be able to see when a comment was made/when the button was pressed, etc. The admins also have a dashboard so they can see how many comments were made over the past day, past week, past month, past year, etc. The data itself like the comments is very small, like less than 20 words. Button presses is simply a number that gets incremented.

    How can I structure the database so that it's efficient at read/writes with good indexes?

    There are two problems I can currently think of. Imagine that there's 100 admins and within each page there's 10 comments being left every minute. That means I would need to write 1000 times each minute which just sounds insane. Then there's the fact of what happens when the admin opens their dashboard. To go through millions of records would take so long (I imagine)

    Any help is appreciated!

    [Showoff Saturday] Write.md a shareable, distraction free markdown editor.

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 11:40 AM PDT

    Many people switching to webdev from trades or other career based jobs. But I am interested in people who leaving any dev career for trades or completely different field.

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 03:47 AM PDT

    And I want to know why:

    1) Weren't you happy with the industry as a whole (like switching from front end to back end and vice versa wouldn't cut it, saturation, low wages, mental overload etc.). And if, wasn't there opportunity to bootstrap your own tech app, business or freelance?

    2) Are you happy with your decision looking back or was it waste of time and if, what would you do differently?

    3) Even let's say you considered all of this, but you stayed in the industry anyway, what would you say to all those new folks who are excited about webdev and mostly wearing a rose glasses (like me) to get mentally prepared or foresee future they can't comprehend at this early stage?

    Thanks in advance for all your answers

    I can post this in career type subreddits but I think that it will be lost there with all current pandemic related questions and I feel that a lot of people who switched still lurking here.

    I want to know, how to write clean and structured JS application.

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 04:24 PM PDT

    I want to write a application that does not suck.
    My goal is to write clean, structured and easy to maintain application from scratch.

    I wrote my first application in JS and it is working. But when ever I want to add new features or debug the program I get PTSD. Because the code is all over the place and it is not as fun as it used to be before.

    I know there are software design principals and stuff related to it, but the problem is it is all theory. I want a book or a tutorial that will teach me how to write a real world application from scratch with all the nuts and bolts.

    I try reading code in Github, but I don't know where the code starts and ends. I for sure know they are are guidelines that help you avoid common pitfalls these other devs are using. But I sadly did not find any reading material.

    I am a self taught developer, so I don't have a computer background. I love web development. While I was a beginner there were Udemy courses to hand holded me but now I am left alone in a desert without a map.

    Please guide me move in the right direction, I want to know how to create my own framework from scratch like Vue or React and also write plugins for JS. I does not mean I will write my own Vue framework from scratch but if I want to I should be able to do it.

    Google Maps API and Tolls

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 04:20 PM PDT

    Hey guys. Was talking to my CTO about our platform and he told me that we had to switch away from Google Maps API because they don't offer toll information.

    Has anyone here successfully used GMaps to extract toll information? Seems like a huge gap in foresight to not offer toll information. We've moved to tollguru specifically because of toll information.

    Thanks

    What is a "module" in Javascript?

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 04:19 PM PDT

    I had trouble finding this one - Some say the module is just another file however on code academy it states that the steps for exporting a module is as follows:

    1.Create an object to represent the module.

    2.Add properties or methods to the module object.

    3.Export the module with module.exports

    If it literally just means file, What does it mean we need to "create an object to represent the module"?

    Its says you need to create an empty object (eg const objectName = {} ) to represent the module object....

    What does this mean? Anyone have any insignt?

    Anyone knows of any live chat integrations that is screen-reader and keyboard friendly?

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 04:15 PM PDT

    Its for a personal project. The only requirements is that it's free for 1 seat and has an android app (or offers unified messaging with WhatsApp or Telegram).

    I had just finished implemented Tawk.io and was testing it with keyboard-only and NVDA. What do you know, I can't open the damn thing even though I have the chat button focused. NVDA doesn't tell me its a button for a chat widget too. (But Tawk sure puts in a lot of effort to make sure their branding stays visible, setting up a setInterval that makes sure it stays pretty every second.)

    I tried out Pure Chat with the implementation on their own website and while it is only slightly better than Tawk, its still unusable for keyboard and screenreaders.

    I though of asking you guys for your suggestions so that I don't need to go around testing too many implementations.

    Screen-reader and keyboard friendly means:

    • Clear outline or other indication that an element is focused. This is less of a problem on OSX with the default being a bold blue outline but on windows the grey dotted line can be hard to see with certain background colors.
    • NVDA should announce something every time I tab to a new element so that I know what is selected.

    [Showoff Saturday] Feedback request - should I go out?

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 04:09 PM PDT

    I made a little frontend app in TypeScript (my first TypeScript app to be exact). I posted it earlier this week and saw that Saturdays are for asking for feedback. I know there's way to many Covid related apps out there at the moment, but I hadn't seen anything like this yet.

    App: http://www.should-i-go-out.com/

    Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

    If anyone wants to check out the code, hit me up, I would love that.

    [redone post] How to protect the video against piracy by novice users (i.e., someone practically without knowledge on how to pirate)?

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 03:52 PM PDT

    I'm creating a video platform and I want to know how to protect videos from being hacked easily.

    ​

    One way is to make the generated url not be the one with ".mp4" at the end, use a blob and convert the video to the ".m3u8" format, so the video will not open if the user simply copies the url, which eliminates the chance of almost 100% of the target audience pirating my content, since they will be courses for beginners in programming.

    ​

    The above form seems to work well, but I don't know how it works behind things. For example, I downloaded a ".m3u8" file but it did not play on VLC. I also don't know if you need to use HLS this way (I also don't know how to work with HLS).

    ​

    I currently intend to store the files on CloudFront. I thought vimeo was a good idea too, but I am starting without any investment.
