    Mispronunciations

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 04:31 AM PDT

    I just realized yesterday that I've been pronouncing NGINX wrong this whole time (thinking of it as en-JINX instead of Engine X)...I don't know that I've ever said the word out loud, and I'd only seen it written to the best of my recollection. So I'm wondering, since we spend so much of our time just reading about these technologies, what have you found yourselves mispronouncing for years?

    The rules of freelance web dev

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 08:33 AM PDT

    Some of the rules that my past 14 years of experience have taught me:

    • Communicate with clients consistently
    • Always manage expectations
    • Where possible, exceed expectations
    • Never work for free on the promise of future paid work
    • Bigger clients are better payers (with rare exceptions)
    • Be polite
    • Always quote 1.6 times what you think the job will cost--there WILL be changes.

    What are some rules that you've developed over your tenure as a freelance developer?

    Why is CSS support so bad in Outlook and how do I work around it?

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 12:46 PM PDT

    I am relatively new to webdev and I work for a small company so I do pretty much everything tech-related. So I put all this time and effort into learning HTML/CSS/Javascript to design and maintain our website only to find that these skills do not apply to our marketing emails because of Outlook's archaic CSS support. Practically all of my marketing emails look like garbage in Outlook, and it's one of the top email clients. But I get emails from other companies that render just fine. What's the trick here?

    Are ASP.NET developers still relevant for web development?

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 12:16 PM PDT

    I began as a web developer about 3 years ago using .NET framework for an insurance company but my entire office was made redundant and I took the first job I was offered as a software developer for a SaaS provider.

    The pay is good, the tech stack is modern (.NET Core/5) and normally the work environment is good, colleagues are nice, bosses really chilled etc. but I'm hating it at the moment and the work was never very interesting to me tbh.

    My question, basically, is can I still use my current skillset to find jobs for a web developer, whether agency or random industry?

    I only ask because the majority of jobs I see which are specific to web development these days seem to require skills like MERN stacks or PHP/WordPress.

    Working on a project and I need to find a way to identify and eradicate porn coming onto the site. This is not for a personal computer, but on the backend of website development. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    How to position things?

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 11:30 AM PDT

    New to web development. After the HTML markup is done, CSS becomes the fun part. For me, almost everything is good until it's time to position things. I am always mixing up px, em, vh, etc. To move distances, I use a combination of margin, top, transform: translate, etc.

    Even though the design comes out just fine at the end, the code is a hell of a mess.

    Has anyone experienced this? How to improve this situation?

    is your work laptop windows 10 or mac os?

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 04:22 AM PDT

    Random question, but I'm very curious about what OS you have on your work laptops.

    I had a macbook pro during school, but been given a windows 10 laptop for my first job because there are tech we work with that are only available on windows . I learned to use it and it's actually not as bad as I remember, for coding and other things. Plus my work laptop can play games, plus it cost less for more power and gpu. While nothing can beat Mac os for the user experiences and easy of use. I'm really wonder what people choose for their work and personal laptop.

    [WP] How iThemes Security can publish backups of your site publicly

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 11:06 AM PDT

    Hi there.

    I'm sorry if it's the wrong place, but I'm just alarmed to see that iThemesSecurity populates backups and logs in your public uploads folder (like others plugins by the way), and let you do this without any critical warning.

    Why is this critical? because if your server is not protected enough to prevent directory listing, users can just browse that directory by typing the URL in the address bar. BUT ! ok, you'll say: "hey, I just get a small shop site, no one will attack me!".The problem IS that if your server doesn't get this option which prevents directory listing, this directory can actually be indexed by Google, and then a hacker just needs to type "uploads/ithemes-security/backups" (or whatever other plugin name doing this) in Google to instantly find hundreds of sites freely populating backups of their DB to the hungry hackers, without even knowing they are doing this, thinking this plugin is protecting them.

    The first example you can find on the first page from Google, https://www.kypher.com/wp-content/uploads/ithemes-security/backups/ which is a company selling you security softwares and encryption-based products, which is kind of.... a joke seriously.

    Note: Not hating that company, by the way, just citing an example from those hundreds. Can't contact them to prevent a hack. That would take me life for nothing honestly. I prefer warning users that 30% of the sites are made with WordPress, and that WordPress and unsecured servers can lead to such critical exploits.

    I am able to send emails with a sandbox domain in mailgun but not with a real verified domain.

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 12:55 PM PDT

    I added the needed dns configurations on netlify where my website is hosted and when I go to https://app.eu.mailgun.com/app/sending/domains/<mydomain>/dns(the DNS records of my domain) all the ticks on all the fields(TXT, MX, CNAME) are green so I know the domain is verified. However I am unable to use the domain when sending messages and get this error:

    Error: Forbidden at IncomingMessage.<anonymous> (C:\Users\MSI\Desktop\mail\node_modules\mailgun-js\lib\request.js:327:17) at IncomingMessage.emit (events.js:327:22) at endReadableNT (_stream_readable.js:1220:12) at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:84:21) { statusCode: 401 } 

    Here is the code that I copied from the mailgun docs and changed the values to my domain and my api key:

    const mailgun = require('mailgun-js'); const DOMAIN = 'mydomain.com'; //The domain is written in the exact same form (not //https://mydomain.com) const api_key = '****************************************'; const mg = mailgun({ apiKey: api_key, domain: DOMAIN }); const data = { from: 'Name myemail@gmail.com', to: 'myemail@gmail.com', subject: 'Hello', text: 'Testing some Mailgun awesomness!', }; mg.messages().send(data, (err, body) => { if (err) throw err; console.log(body); }); 

    I have looked through all the stackoverflow questions on this topic it seems like but still didnt find what the issue is (And again, the code above is working with a sandbox domain). help

    I developed a website to check new film releases and check in what platforms can you find a movie based on your current location.

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 10:03 AM PDT

    I developed a website to check new film releases and check in what platforms can you find a movie based on your current location.

    After starting to work with Angular by my own a few months ago I just developed my first project:

    https://atlantida-1a948.web.app/home

    This little Angular web-app it's hosted on firebase and let you check new movie releases and based on your location finds out on what platforms can you see a movie.

    I haven't finished yet but I 'd love to have feedback about functionality or design. What do you think?

    IP law question about enthusiast website for portfolio

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 07:52 PM PDT

    Just completed my Udemy web dev boot camp course (Angela Yu's Link) and I need to start building a portfolio. I thought I would make a enthusiast site about Ford Mustangs, just because I have some familiarity with them already. However, what I am not familiar with is what legal concerns I need to be aware of while working with Ford's intellectual property. I don't intend for the website to ever be more than a portfolio piece, but I want to make sure my ignorance isn't going to get me into trouble.

    As a side question, how do you know when you are ready to attempt tiny freelance jobs on Fiverr for some extra experience?

    Plus, any advice on building experience when you are taking your first steps away from tutorial hand-holding would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Embed a bash interpreter/terminal emulator/simulator on web page?

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 07:58 AM PDT

    Hello!

    I am a CS student and I have a project for one of my classes in which I must develop an educational web app to teach something IT related. I chose to make a website that teaches Bash scripting, since it's something I am familiar with. What I wanted to do was to make a simple website teaching Bash concepts, and at the end of each topic provide an exercise or challenge for the user/student to test what they've learned.

    Therefore, would be really nice if I could emulate/simulate a linux terminal on the page, that accepted very basic commands (such as ls, pwd, and cd). I've seen some educational websites(such as codecademy) do it, so I know it's possible. However, I researched quite a lot about how to embed such a terminal on a page, but didn't find what I was looking for.

    Can anyone shed me some light on how I may do this? Will I have to hard code the interpreter from scratch?

    I am using node to code the project, so it would be nice if there was an NPM library or something like that.

    Thanks in advance!

    Writing the backend of an e-commerce website in Java (Servlets) or Python (Django)?

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 09:14 AM PDT

    I want to write an e-commerce website but have trouble deciding on whether to write it in Java using Servlets of Python using the Django framework. I know both as I've been studying them since this pandemic but have trouble on deciding which to use for an e-commerce website. The important things I am looking for are: security, processing payments, heavy traffic (if my site grows).

    How to find the script that is giving the csp error?

    Posted: 26 Apr 2021 02:56 PM PDT

    I have a front-end in angular and locally it doesn't throw any errors, but on production where there is https it throws the csp error related to script-src

    error message

    Refuse to load the font 'http://-.-.-.-:port/res/Soleil.woff2' because it violates the -.-.-.-:1 following Contetn Security Policy directive: "default-src 'none'". Note that 'font-src' was not explictly set, so 'default-src' is used as a fallback.

    note that -.-.-.- and -.-.-.-:port is just me taking out the ip of the server
