Posted: 07 Jul 2020 02:22 PM PDT I do a lot of work on both sides of the fence and feel at least like they both value me fwtw, i don't have huge issues with any of them - at least not in a capacity i haven't had with someone on any other team i've ever worked on professionally, people are people - you don't have to love everyone you work with. It's just really challenging working with separate teams when they're constantly bitching about the other to you. Most of the time i don't think we're that far off our goals, it's just they have no trust in each other. We're trying to get to a common place, and i don't get all hissy(?) fits. i'm normally pretty quiet but i'm about over it. What does escalating this accomplish? I don't want to start any more he-said-she-said bs, i like my neutral ground kind of but why can't everyone be neutral lol? [link] [comments] |
What can you do about that one project that immediately burns you out as soon as you touch it? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 02:07 AM PDT Never had that before, but i'm currently tasked with programming a planning software and i just can't. My mind wanders off instantly, i feel burnt up and i can't think straight. Any other project, no issue. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 07 Jul 2020 08:04 PM PDT I am interested in developing a simple phone app that sends push notices to alert users of a missing person. Yes, kind of like Amber Alert, except my focus will be on mostly seniors with dementia. It'll be on phones too. No, there's nothing like this already. Does anyone know how complicated that would be? Who does that sort of thing? The cost? I live in Vancouver and, like a lot of places, public health officials are trying to keep seniors at home longer, usually with a healthier spouse. Sometimes, they wander off. I feel bad for both, and in winter, the risk of loss of life is real. Sometimes I go off looking for them, but other times, I have kids sports commitments, or I'm exhausted from working. I want to create a network of folks who can help. If it works, I'll let others use it for other cities. [link] [comments] |
How do I learn agile as someone with no group of people and no work/internship experience with it. Posted: 07 Jul 2020 07:57 PM PDT I am a recent college grad in CS.

is it hard to get a job as a self taught dev without a degree? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 09:40 AM PDT So, can someone without a degree just knowing some code like oop, file manipulation, guis, error/exception handling, etc? and if not, what are the industry standarts to get a job [link] [comments] |
Is it possible/how to create a bot for an XBOX game? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 07:18 PM PDT The game I'm referring to in particular is FIFA 20 Ultimate Team. It is a soccer card collecting game for the XBOX One. The game also has a iOS app and website where you are able to open packs which contain soccer players. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to create a bot that could automatically open up the packs in the game. Whether it is through the phone app, website, or the XBOX console itself. Any help would be appreciated I am just looking to get pointed in the right direction! [link] [comments] |
What do I need to learn to accomplish my Goal... (Execute Code after scanning a QR Code) Posted: 07 Jul 2020 05:28 PM PDT PS this wouldn't necessarily be a phone application. I envision this being run on a Windows or some sort of PC. Thanks. Hi. I have an idea but it requires creating (or maybe licensing if it exists) a software. I would like to ask a broad and narrow question: What language would I need to start learning to (a) either write this code myself in that language, and/or (b) what languages would I need to learn to understand the basics of one building block language and then graduate into the other language in which I would write the code? A secondary question would be: where can I go to hire/interview an engineer/coder just simply to write this for me? See, without having any real knowledge of coding, I don't know what I don't know, to use a cliche. So it's difficult for me to find someone that (a) I could trust, and (b) I could fairly and accurately evaluate his/her skillset. So here's roughly kind of the idea or what I'd like to be able to accomplish: I want to create a software (it might be two), that will read a QR Code within an image (or any "code", I'm just starting with QR because it seems generally accepted in the market), and actually DO something with that data. What do I want it to DO? I want it to communicate with a database and then essentially execute some sort of code. To use an example, if I could write the following, I could probably write what I actually want to do: I take a picture of a QR code off the internet, and run that .img through the software. The software reads the QR code. The QR actually says something like "j8921kzu8brxnmqujwe", it's nonsense really, but my back-end server knows what to do with that. So perhaps the QR code actually says something like "point to URL or URI or some backend server and j8921..." (I have zero clue how to do this URI assignment btw). Now on the backend server, I want it to receive this input that "j8921..." has been scanned, and the backend server associates real information to "j8921...", for example, maybe in the backend server, "j8921..." is associated to my reddit username and password, so the backend system knows that is my information and perhaps it logs me into reddit or something (this is just an example, my actual idea has nothing to do with reddit, I'm just trying to simplify). But the important thing is, the backend system is important because "j8921..." essentially serves as a mask to protect my actual username and pw, where as if my QR code was just simply my usernamepassword, well then obviously that would be a problem. Any thoughts on this? Much appreciated! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 07 Jul 2020 09:08 PM PDT I currently don't work with any more experienced developers to ask this kind of questions. START OF STORY I had to code some very basic reporting functionality for a (very) small company: it basically shows you (the company's client) the sum of the operations, their corrections, discounts, costs for the company, price to be paid by the company's client, etc. Before starting that task I had these kind of questions: 1- (A) Should I do the calculations (totals minus discounts plus corrections, etc.) in SQL for every group of "concepts" related to an operation? Or (B) should I bring it all raw and then calculate in the backend app? 2- (A) Should I loop over the list of clients and then query its operations inside the loop? Or (B) should I query all the operations, then all the corrections, then all the discounts, etc. of all the clients and then in the backend app start classifying it by client and doing the calculations? My lack of SQL proficiency made me choose (A) in the first question. In the second question I did (A) because my boss told me so in a hurry. So no much thinking there at least by me. What I have in mind before deciding things like this is that I should check what already limits your options: the requirements of your client, your language/tool proficiency, how much time you have to come up with something, how much data are you going to manage (lot of clients but few operations? lots of operations but few clients?), how much time can your process take to finish, can you make it faster doing fewer and bigger queries to the DB / make it use less memory but slower with more small queries... But I feel like I could end up doing something that its going to be difficult to mantain, prone to errors, etc. because I failed to take common knowledge about (for example) the widely used "reporting module" into account. END OF STORY My question is: Is there a concept or keyword I should know to google best practices for this kind of widely used modules before coding it? "Common practices for reporting in software" leads to reporting software. "Common patterns for reporting in software" brings nothing. I don't know why it seems to me that there should be something like "software design patterns" and "software architectural patterns" for this level of processes that only I never knew. Does that "concept" exist? What do you do before coding some "common" module from scratch? Check open source projects that may have implemented that same module? Ask a coworker / boss? Power through it hoping it will end up doing just ok? [link] [comments] |

I am getting hacked to oblivion... Posted: 07 Jul 2020 12:13 PM PDT Years ago I bought a VPS, to run some tests and demos; not a big deal; at first I didn't think about putting top notch security since there was literally nothing but small demos, tests and prototypes, one day I executed some new shiny JS code. Next day everything was destroyed. According to my logs it started by being crawled by google, then it got crawled by something else, portmapped, DDoSed and overloaded, the database password was bruteforced, and the data dumped, there was nothing in there so all tables dropped. They couldn't go further as my standard security prevented them. So I turn off the server and enable full blast production security. The bots will stop; no, they double down; they are trying MITM with proxies that now pop up in google search and somehow rewrite my requests to HTTPS and redirect them to my own IP using a different IP each time, they bought 3 domains for that on the same day, one of them has a shitty HTML only copy and somehow turned on my demo website to German support which was off and deep inside (in the client side), which means they are rewriting requests and somehow analyzing my minified codebase. A lot of websites are vulnerable to this, I am not security dumb, I just don't have time to patch every little thing for "demos and tests", how would you even prevent anyone from making a clone of your site in plain HTML?... or prevent this proxying, What is going on...? what did I do?... What are these bots after?... [link] [comments] |
Academic Question! I am confused Posted: 07 Jul 2020 01:33 PM PDT Hello I am in a graduate class and have been tasked with finding a program that would be the best application for a specific job. I am totally a beginner on this subject and honestly lost. The problem states that I need an application that can handle a mixed-integer programming (MIP) inventory-location model consisting of 470,000 variables and 56,000 constraints. If so, how long would it take to produce an optimal solution? I am so confused about looking up programs to do this because none of the websites speak about variables and constraints it can handle. The problem states: "Conduct online research and suggest at least three other applications or types of software that could handle the magnitude of variables and constraints the company used in their model. The problem states that it took ILOG OPL Studio with CPLEX 4 hours to produce a solution. Thank You! [link] [comments] |

What do I need to do/learn to make an app like TikTok or YouTube? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 09:27 AM PDT I know: Java, a little bit of C#. Android App development, and use external libraries a lot. Have also had experience in building/deploying websites, and little bit in making get/post requests. And I have experience with digital design and graphic design for promo material. But not too much experience in back end dev (really limited experience). From what I know, I'll need: A large database that can house millions of videos Another database for user accounts (and maybe a table for user preferences, if not another small database?) A large server farm to hold the servers that will store those databases To be able to perform crud operations on said databases Obviously classes that can extract said data into a viewable form and UI classes to display said data (video, user account, etc.) Along with standard permissions (internet permissions, phone storage permissions to upload videos, etc.). Is there anything else I'm missing? And Additionally:

Is it legal for me to use open source software like Tesseract commercially? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 02:15 PM PDT I'm building a software. For now it will be free to use, but hypothetically if people are willing to pay, I wouldn't say no. But just in case, am I allowed to use the Tesseract engine in my software that will have X number of users? Thank you. [link] [comments] |
Why don’t IDE’s colour in the code hotspots red? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 01:31 PM PDT Just an idea I had while running a bath. You press run on a program. The program could sample to find hotspots and tell you there and then which bits your program is spending most time in. For junior developers (like me), profiling is boring but optimising is fun. For me this would replace a chore with a challenge. It's also one less bad habit to grow out of. [link] [comments] |

Any Open-source alternatives to Retool or something similar? Posted: 07 Jul 2020 11:28 AM PDT Hi, I've been having bad luck in trying to find some low-code, open-source, self-hosted developer tools to quickly create a front-end to query databases, test API's, etc; basically automate certain tasks in a user friendly way. I'm not very familiar with web development in general so I was hoping some of you would have some experience about such tools. I've been using Node-Red for quite some time now making custom API's and automating tasks, however, I'm missing a versatile front-end to kick-start these processes. I guess what I'm looking for is a sort of drag and drop ui with a built in editor to act as a javascript playground, but aimed more towards the front-end aspect in comparison to Node-Red.I'm well aware of node-red-dashboard as well as ui builder but they don't have what I'm looking for. Yesterday I came across a web based toolkit, Retool,that does exactly what I want, however it's not entirely free. Do any of you know of a open-source, self-hosted alternative to Retool? What I like about Retool is the speed and lack of code, but some tools that would also work for me is a tool to, say, drag and drop an input field, create a few check boxes and based on the state of these input widgets, a json document would be generate and sent to an API? To be able to present the result would be a bonus. Is Joget a viable option? Thingsboard had some really nice features with processing data (a bit like node-red) but it's more aimed towards displaying and managing IoT devices. Hopefully this wasn't too messy of a question.

Posted: 07 Jul 2020 09:58 AM PDT So I'm working on developing a google chrome extension that is going to be making use of some of the google API's that require authentication. Our current plan is to have the extension function as just a front-end interface and have all of the work done on a server that will act like our own API. I've read a lot of the documentation on the different methods of google OAuth flows and I can't seem to figure out which will be the best for this project, or even if what I'm doing is an OK way to handle this. As of now I planned on having a login button in the extension that brings you to the google consent screen, which redirects to the server where we can accept the access token from the URL and create a user profile, then update the front-end extension based on that information. I'd love to hear any suggestions or advice. [link] [comments] |

7 Cool Python Tricks That You Probably Didn’t Know Posted: 07 Jul 2020 09:06 AM PDT |
Technology Stack Question (NodeJS/ExpressJS) Posted: 07 Jul 2020 08:45 AM PDT Hi all, I'm new to web dev, but have a security background with web app testing experience and building a web app that I want to deploy that has these specific features:
Here's what I have so far:
Now, my question is this: is that sufficient? I'm learning about the existence of all these other frameworks and honestly, I'm confused. I wanted to have a VueJS front end but I wasn't sure how to tie it back with express since I don't have my own API that I'm running. I'm learning about NuxtJS that can be used with Vue to implement server-side rendering but then it seems like I have to transform my progress so far into that. Do I need a front-end framework such as React or Vue or would just using EJS be sufficient? Otherwise I would have many more questions regarding routing, session management, and even authentication. As I've stated before, I'm new to all of this so if possible dumb it down for me :) [link] [comments] |
