| Regularly Scheduled 'GoDaddy Fucking Sucks' Post Posted: 10 Jun 2020 10:55 PM PDT Trying to get a client's site live last minute because stupid reasons. Whatever, standard WP site. They have GoDaddy, cheapest Managed WordPress plan. I usually use AIO WP Migration to move simple sites around. Exported and the zip is 384MB and then realize GoDaddy has a 100MB upload limit set for the shared server. Tried creating a php.ini, no dice. Tried setting ini vars in the wp-config, no dice still. Finally, tried throwing the lines into the htaccess and still no dice. All of a sudden, 500 error! So I go back to edit the htaccess file and some automated system has locked the file and then the GoDaddy File Browser in the account dashboard isn't loading. Great! Tried SFTP but, surprise!, the server is timing out so I can't even FTP in to tickle the htaccess. I'm now on a live chat with some dude who takes literally two to three minutes to respond. I told him the issue and his suggestion is to wait for DNS to propagate. I am so upset and tired and I just want to go to bed. Don't use GoDaddy and don't let your clients use GoDaddy. What's your latest shitty hosting horror story? [link] [comments]  | ||

| Am I an idiot for not being able to contribute to open source? Posted: 11 Jun 2020 08:47 AM PDT I've got a fair amount of experience with Javascript. Most of it is for my own projects, but I still like to think I know more than a beginner. A package I need has made big changes to its code (I think it was a complete rewrite) and some functionality was completely removed because it would not be compatible sometime in the future. That's absolutely fine, the guys that made it probably know much more than me. After asking for how I would replicate the removed functionality with the new version of the package I was told that it was possible, given a small explanation of how to implement it and told to make a pull request to implement the feature. So I download the package to see how I can contribute and it's like 2000+ lines of code with no comments or any explanation on how it works. I tried to reverse engineer it and understand what did what, but it's just so much I just get lost. Is it my fault for not having the brains to reverse engineer the package to understand how to implement new features? Am I dumb for wanting explanations on what a certain part of code does? I'd love to contribute to more stuff, but it really feels like if you weren't involved from the beginning it's almost impossible to make any useful additions without spending a week decyphering someone else's code. Everyone above me seems to have to have such an easy time with contributing to open source software it really gives me impostor syndrome. TLDR: I have trouble contributing to open source software because I have a hard time figuring out what everything does without comments or explanations. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 11 Jun 2020 02:19 PM PDT Hi! I'm a Software Engineer (9-10yrs) and have been doing React for ~4yrs. AWS 5+ years, DevOps 2+ years, Py/JS/C/C++. I've been asked to develop these two huge projects. I wanted to get your thoughts from both a development and architecture perspective. I think the ask is too large, and using a pre-existing CMS may have tradeoffs versus rebuilding a CMS from scratch with React.. So, basically the client has the following requirements for 2 different apps: Job Candidate Experience
My thoughts: This one seems pretty easy. It's a multi-tenant application, basic CRUD application, all living in AWS. React S3, APIs in API Gateway & AppSync, all compute logic in AWS Lambda. I'm thinking the backend will be in Python and Nodejs. Jenkins will handle the CI/CD, and Terraform will be the tool for IaaC. Data storage I'm leaning towards Postgres & DynamoDB. Content Builder, Manager
My thoughts: This one is kinda complex. I'm thinking the CMS itself will be multi-tenant -- the infrastructure behind it being pretty easy. However, that's where the "easy" stops imo. My main concern & complexity comes from following once "publish" is clicked:
If site is already built, and publish is an update:
My concerns are mainly around this whole workflow ... it seems like a nightmare... I guess I need to start decoupling the different business needs & microservice logic input/outputs? So:
Thank you!! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Just landed my first contract, now what? Posted: 11 Jun 2020 12:48 PM PDT I've been learning front-end development for the past six months and have prior experience with WordPress. I decided to rebuild a couple of websites for family friends to get my feet wet and they were super happy. I got the confidence to reach out to my network to a couple of friends who own businesses, shared my work with them, and asked them if they needed a website. One of them responded immediately that he needed an entire site rebuilt as well as maintenance for another one. I charged him $2250 to build the first website, and we're now working out a deal for maintaining both sites indefinitely. They confronted me today asking if I could do SEO for them. I have minimal SEO experience, but it's something I want to learn and I want to increase my skill set by helping them. How much should I charge for monthly maintenance and SEO? I have a month until they want me to start marketing so I figured I would study my way into SEO until then, or look into hiring a freelancer. I was considering a monthly rate of $1650 for maintaining both sites along with SEO. Let me know what you think. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Have companies you have worked for in the past trained you? Posted: 11 Jun 2020 08:12 AM PDT I'm wondering if your companies have trained you in the past? I've been working for a company for 2 years now and I just realized, they have never once given me any formal training. We had a meeting today and the owner told us he expects us to be experts in not only x technology, but y as well. He then went on to say that even if we had to spend time outside of work learning this technology, his shop needs to have a higher level of quality. I 100% understand wanting your work to have a certain level of quality, but then to say in the same meeting "We always throw our people to the wolves to see if they can make it happen" just doesn't sit right with me. From day 1, I was thrown in the water and told to sink or swim and I've always swam except for this one time recently. I am paid ~15k less than my peers and I am talked down to and have been provided no training while not really advancing my knowledge over the past two years. Everything I have learned is because of me smashing my head against the screen until I learn it, at the expense of my sleep and mental health. I can't complain, because my direct report puts in 2x the hours and has 3x the stress I do. The reason I'm still here is that the job is remote and a couple days a month I get to do absolutely nothing and I get paid for it. I have gotten too comfortable, and writing this post has made me realize that. I guess I already know the answer, obviously good companies train people. I just needed to type this out, and I guess get some feedback on my situation. Feel free to downvote for a pointless post. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 11 Jun 2020 03:41 PM PDT I'm sure this is elementary stuff but I have a question about applying a DOCTYPE. I have a site I've had up for several years - maybe over 10 - that I did with simple HTML. Believe it or not I still get a significant amount of traffic to it. Anyway I noticed that the DOCTYPE of everything is : After a bit of looking around I've seen the latest and greatest is simply <!doctype html> now. My question is should I change the <DOCTYPE>? Keep in mind that everything is still just plain HTML. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Host for a subscription based retail business Posted: 11 Jun 2020 02:41 PM PDT Hi all, First time posting in here, just looking for some advice on which service is should use to host my website for a business I'm starting. The business will basically sell a monthly subscription for a box of music related items. I only need to have one product listed ( the subscription to the box ) but need the ability to do direct debit as it'll be a monthly reoccurring subscription. I would also like a good back end to keep track of subscriptions ect. I've looked at shopify but the £29 a month seems pretty expensive for what I need, any other cheaper options or recommendations ? ( I have very little web development skills so it needs to be easy to use ) Thanks! [link] [comments]  | ||

| Color schemes and bleeding edge <picture>s Posted: 11 Jun 2020 02:03 PM PDT Let's talk about it. In 2020 are we at the point where we finally care about dark, light, light level, etc for photos? Probably not because we're lazy, content editors and designers are never going to provide this properly, and it's honestly probably not worth it too. But as a theoretical discussion what is the most bleeding edge picture we can make leveraging css level 4/5 and newer web dev stuff. I know there are variants such as rotating the hue, brightness, inverse filter, etc but you still have to be careful with monochrome images using these hackish methods to cover everything and many edge cases. Alternative is <picture> and provide everything or at least fill in the gaps. So what does this look like? A quick first take is.... You'd need at a minimum for a cutting edge picture hitting almost every case
If you're using svgs this doesn't apply obviously. You can just target the fill property programatically. We'll also assume you don't do something naive like loading an svg as an image and actually inline everything to avoid an unfixable case. What else? That's all I've got off the top of my head.

| Posted: 11 Jun 2020 01:38 PM PDT I've been calling it a timeline, some folks call it a scrubber, others a playback bar, or a shuttle, or other names. I want to know the name of it because I want to find out if there is open source software out there that I can use so I don't have to reinvent the wheel. (exactly like this -- a "timeline" for guitar tabs, that autoscrolls as a video plays) Can anyone help out? Thanks in advance. [link] [comments]  | ||
| What's a good way to log the flow of clients entering and leaving a market? Posted: 11 Jun 2020 01:14 PM PDT Hello r/webdev, fellow lurker here. Web development is a hobby of mine that goes back to my teen years. After a while away from the scene, recently I have been trying to catch up with all the new stuff, like React and Node.js. A challenge I was facing was thinking of ideas to develop, resulting in a lack of motivation. Well finally I thought of an idea to help a friend and a good opportunity for me to learn and practice. A bit of background to the app: I'm making a web app for a friend that manages a market which inside has a lot of stands. The market has different entrances from all sides. The current situation of my country in relation to the pandemic is not good. Therefore all the establishments have a limit of clients permitted inside. Since this is a rather big market, the flow of people is large especially on the weekends. After working at one of the entrances for a day, the way they were monitoring the quantity of people was very poor: using a counter app on their phone and sending the numbers through WhatsApp. Either every hour, or when there were a lot of people entering and leaving. I came to the idea of making an app that can monitor the number of people inside in real-time. A basic web app (easier for me, I don't know how to develop native apps, neither hybrid) using sockets and a node.js server. I'm adding more features, like accounts so a person can enter and use the counter. Accounts with different privileges so an admin can open and close account registration, and more things to come. Learning how to use Node.js, express, the packages, authentication, hosting, etc was difficult but it is working out and I am very happy. I am using Node.js and MongoDB. I tried learning React before but I had a hard time and decided to leave it to another time in the future. To the question: let's say I wanted to log the flow of clients in and out of the market, through each entrance, what would be the best approach? Logging to the database or a text file? What would I use? The only data I'd want to save would be the time and entrance the client entered or left. The idea in the future is to present this data in graphs. Is this possible? Would this be a very intensive process? I tried searching and had no success. I don't even know the right keywords to use to look for a solution. Thank you for the help everyone. Edit: just to be a bit more clear, the app is already working, it's hosted, haven't tested it yet though. My question is mainly about logging the people entering and leaving the market.

| Looking for open source mobile applications that use Machine Learning Posted: 11 Jun 2020 09:11 AM PDT I started a web dev internship last week. I am a Computer Engineering major with almost no web dev experience, but I took the job because no one is hiring right now. We are in the early stages of developing a mobile app. My boss wants me to find 'use cases from a tech stack' of some machine learning related feature. The problem is I can't find any open source apps, especially ones that share the back end. Basically I'm looking for any resources out there that could help me. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Is there an easier way to enter information into JSON Posted: 11 Jun 2020 08:49 AM PDT So at work I have a very large JSON file with over 1000 lines of code. I have to manually change the strings on almost every line. For example "client": "Name goes here" "address": "Address goes here" Is there some way I can create a form or something so that its asks me for "Client Name" and enters the client name in the appropriate bits in the JSON?

| Need some help with a quiz/question bank site Posted: 11 Jun 2020 12:24 PM PDT Hi r/webdev, looking for some direction into making an idea a reality. I have a few hundred exam type questions for a niche that I would like to turn into a question bank site that people pay per month for using. I figured I could use a Wordpress plugin to handle membership and monthly payment. What I'm finding difficult is hosting the question bank. I would presume that I would need some sort of SQL etc database (sorry in the process of self learning CS), I'm just not sure of the rest but here's what I'm looking for once user logs in: User selects number of questions they want to take User then takes quiz which is made up of multiple-choice questions Would need a countdown timer based on say minute per question Once user finishes quiz the correct answers are shown/explained I've had a look at various Wordpress plugins but nothing I've seen fits my criteria unless you could suggest any? Alternatively how would I go round programming this myself? any tips or guides that fit my needs would be appreciated. TIA [link] [comments]  | ||
