| Posted: 12 Aug 2020 03:25 PM PDT I have a startup that provides a B2B2C service. We are transitioning onto our own tech platform that lets us add clients to it and then allows our clients to add and service their own customers. It requires a high degree of security and scalability. We interviewed a few firms and ended up selecting someone who we have worked with before on other IT projects who has extensive programming experience. He's building the whole thing in AWS from the ground up. He jumped right into the project and started sketching out a very basic UI to serve as a roadmap for the functionality we want to include. Now a lot of backend work. The trouble is that requirements were not clearly defined up front, he just wanted to sort of lay things out as we go. Fine. But, SO MUCH STUFF keeps coming up. For example, 2FA is set up, but little things like "if they enter the wrong code for 2FA, we have to clear out the input box and tell them they entered the wrong code." I didn't expect to have to spec that sort of thing out for them. Or "when prompting them to change their password on first login and then having them log in again, tell them you're going to have them log in again instead of just routing them back to the login screen." I wanted to focus on the business, and I'm getting pulled into having to identify these crazy little user experience things. Does that make sense? It seems like there are frameworks for this and we are just reinventing the wheel on basic stuff like login screens and uploader modals. 6 week project now in week 12. My other issue with it is that it seems like it's irritating him that we're coming up with these things, and it's actually more irritating to me that he ISN'T coming up with them. Like, telling the user what's going on is not optional, they have to know why their password was rejected or that the 2FA code was wrong or they're just going to click submit 10 more times and then call us for help.

| Computers can't generate truly random numbers... Posted: 12 Aug 2020 01:31 PM PDT Computers can't generate truly random numbers, and a dice roll is considered "truly" random. If you use a physics engine to create dice and roll them, would those numbers be considered random? [link] [comments]  |
| Solution for faster web server loading time Posted: 12 Aug 2020 08:36 PM PDT What is the best way to run a web site even faster with a web server. If I build my own web server it could run my web site faster than if I use Nginx or Apache, because I will have less code and fewer background tasks. Is my opinion building my own web server true, or not at all? Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Super Simple Html Website help Posted: 12 Aug 2020 09:53 PM PDT Hey everyone, for digital tech at school we have to create a very basic website, but we had a teacher change just before the topic and he knew nothing about HTML, im stacked on assignments and was wondering if someone could whip a website up quickly, can't imagine it would take much more than 20 minutes (yes that basic) Msg me and ill send pictures of what need to be done. thank you [link] [comments]  |

| How did/do people write games in Assembler? Posted: 12 Aug 2020 04:11 PM PDT As someone who is primarily a programmer for games today, I use C++, C# and Java primarily, and how they work makes sense to me. What I can't get my head around is how people coded games with visuals and audio etc in raw Assembler. I know that compiled languages are compiled into Assembler, so it's clearly possible, especially since plenty of people have done and still do it. It just blows my mind how they do it. Surely all you can really do in Assembler is move memory around, compare values, and perform math operations on them. I mean, strictly speaking that's about all you can do with ANY programming language, but with Assembler, there's no semblance of organization. How do you keep track of which values you put where? How do you know which memory addresses are available to you? How do you determine which device you want to communicate with? Can anyone recommend a good way or tool to learn how it works?

| Posted: 12 Aug 2020 07:18 PM PDT I'm creating a service that provides customers with digital content to help them with their college coursework. They will be able to buy bundles of videos and pdfs that only they can access. I'm concerned, however, that people will just share the pdfs and videos with each other, so I'd like to make the material available only to the paying customer, in such a way that they can only access it on their personal computer. Of course, I don't want students to be able to just download these videos or pdfs so they can share it between themselves. Thus my question is just, how can I make these videos and pdfs exist in such a way? [link] [comments]  |
| Is there a decent modern PHP onboarding course/tutorial around? Posted: 12 Aug 2020 05:00 PM PDT I'm starting a new job at the end of this month focusing mostly on PHP dev. I'm pretty competent with programming in general (Python, JS, and Java), but haven't spent much time with PHP (past minor bug fixes or one-off database conversion scripts). Most courses/materials I've been finding are either old or target at a beginner leave. Are there any decent modern resources for PHP (paid or free)? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 12 Aug 2020 08:10 AM PDT Hey y'all, So I want to make an exe for work that will help classify some rocks. It's meant to be used by others and outputs a string at the end (by way of text boxes and such). What's easiest for others to just download and open (without knowing how all the under the hood stuff works)? I have done a quick binary tree in java as well as C#. It seems easier in C# to make different text boxes but maybe that's just some advantage that is outweighed by something I don't see in Java? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |

| Identify "peak" of a scatterplot to plot a normal curve in python Posted: 12 Aug 2020 11:33 AM PDT TL;DR: I can't get my normal distribution up and my lab partner is disappointed :'^( I want python to identify the peaks of some datasets but the peaks are close together enough to be seen but not far away enough so that you can just separate the data at some "eye-picked" value. long version: Basically i have 6 datasets of wavelenght (lambda) vs absorption (A) that have 2 peaks each, the problem is that they're close together, close enough to be identifiable by eye but not far away enough to really define a domain as to calculate a max. It does look like 2 local maxima (if it were a function) and i have to identify the corresponding peaks for these (so the x values corresponding to the peaks). This will allow me to know where to position the mean of the normal distributions i want to graph. As for the standard deviation, i tried getting the stdev from the y values and then graphing them just like that, but, the normal curve comes out incredibly skinny, aka, wrong. Here are some of the graphs: https://imgur.com/a/UDywnkq My code is systematic, i wanted to do 1 for loop and have all my data systematically analyzed, any suggestions with that are also welcomed.

| Want to change a websites camera refresh time Posted: 12 Aug 2020 05:00 AM PDT Hey everyone! I'm a surfer and I use a camera for my local break from a website. Unfortunately, they made it so it refreshes every 35 seconds... I've been trying to go into inspect element and try and change it to a smaller number but it doesn't affect anything... Was wondering if someone on here could give it a go and if you have any luck tell me how you did it... Thanks! The website is: [link] [comments]  |

| Where to start: Making a little script to do tedious tasks between Adobe CC, Finder and Web Posted: 12 Aug 2020 06:59 AM PDT Hello, I'm a TV/Film freelancer and do a lot of video editing. I found an SEO service that needs simple videos edited for $20 a pop. These videos all require about 3-5 simple animated title screens, b-roll from a stock site and the main talent video and voice over. I have three days to complete a video, but in order for it to make financial sense, I assign myself as many as possible at a time, and then get swamped. I've done over a hundred this summer and am seeing some patterns that I could definitely automate. It would save me an immense amount of time if I could have a program:
These functions will just help me do tedious stuff. All the color, design, motion, and broll cuts, music and etc will be filled in and adjusted by hand. I have some JS experience from simple web apps I've built, and some C++ and Processing experience doing some Arduino projects. So I kind of know how I'd want the script to loop through the tasks, but I honestly have no idea what language or approach to take. Every other coding project I've done either showed up instantly on web browser or triggered some mechanical action through a microcontroller, so idk how to make a desktop app or script. Where should I start? What terminology should I use to Google solutions? How would a programmer even describe my problem? TLDR: I need a language or approach to build a script that moves files and text around different applications including Finder, Adobe Premiere, After Effects and Web Browser. Thanks in advance!

| Python: Need help with the 'asyncio' module - Details in the description. Posted: 12 Aug 2020 10:25 AM PDT I am building a discord bot where there is an 'async' function that resets a flag after asynchronously sleeping for 15 seconds and there is another 'async' function that sets the flag if the input arrives within 15 seconds. How do I stop executing the first function (which sleeps for 15 seconds) after the input has arrived? The input is given in the form of a discord command. Thanks for the help. [link] [comments]  |
| Need some pointers as to where to start with my project Posted: 12 Aug 2020 06:37 AM PDT So I want make an app for android, a really simple one (at least I think it's simple). You enter a number x and then it gives you a set paragraph of text, you enter 1 it gives the text for 1, 2 it gives the text for 2 etc.. But my entire programming knowledge is some vague memories of php in highschool. What language would you recommend for an app like that and do you know any other resources I should look into for this. Thanks in advance. [link] [comments]  |
| I want to read multiple .csv files in a systematic way but don't know how Posted: 12 Aug 2020 10:22 AM PDT So i am doing some data analysis on cyanines, and i have 6 datasets all of the same shape and form (3 columns and n rows). All the data have the same file path and are named Data_#, #=1,2,3,4... I want to use panda's read_csv to systematically load and process the data, I thought about doing a for loop but i don't know how to include the variable index, i, in the file path. The idea would be: for i in range(1,7): df_cyanines_i = pd.read_csv( ' C:\\File_Path\\Data_i') Now, i would like for the result to have 6 new variables named df_cyanines_i, with i between 1 and 6 with the corresponding dataset. The problem (as far as i am concerned) is in making python somehow vary the i in the "Data_i" If this is possible. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |
