    Does anyone else like W3Schools more than MDN, or at least for quickly looking things up?

    Posted: 28 Oct 2021 10:10 PM PDT

    When I first learned CSS in 2016 - 17, I would google properties and see the website at the top search results (which is still true). I never had any issues with it nor found any info to be misleading (though, most of the complaints for the websites was for the way it was back in the early 2010s, including w3fools.com), and I really like the Try it yourself. I still use the website for looking CSS up, and actually have barely looked at MDN. Though, I don't any professional web development, just writing CSS every now and then, like a Firefox UI theme (check out r/firefoxcss).

    How do you feel about W3Schools? Did you ever have problems with it? (after the early 2010s)

    Edit: Woah, I got a shit ton of upvotes, thanks guys! I thought this would be another random post here with no more than a dozen or so comments and <15 upvotes.

    Do you make TypeScript errors block deploy?

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 10:09 AM PDT

    We're slowly converting our app's repo at work to TS and I noticed that even if you don't address errors in a newly converted typescript file, you can still push and have pipelines pass. I know usually we can trust developers to fix these errors, but I just accidentally deployed some changes that had a file containing a couple TS compilation errors. Should we be more strict in this domain?

    Does Java has an equivalent to Django/Laravel/Node

    I want to learn to develop backend for websites using Java instead of PHP. Does it have some framework like Laravel? How do you start?

    Thanks

    Seeking insight on how to build a dynamically paginating list based text editor.

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 01:18 PM PDT

    What's my goal?

    I want to create a website where people can upload video/audio, get it transcribed and translated, and receive a subtitle file.

    Skillset:

    I'm a full time devops eng at tech company and I write a lot of deployment/automation solutions using a mix of python, shell, terraform, CFT, ansible. I'm looking to move into a full stack engineer role and I've already built several Python Flask API applications (1 for work, 2 personal). So I feel pretty covered on the back end and infrastructure side.

    I've been taking Udemy lessons for front end and I have a basic grasp of html, css, javascript. However the best I can do so far is make a pretty UI with buttons where I can enter and submit text, validate/sanitize input, if this then that buttons that makes api calls to my python backend server.

    What I've done so far:

    On the front end, I only have a ui with buttons to allow the user to upload a file which sends the file as a post request to my backend python flask app... and that's about it.

    My backend server then receives the file and stores it in a temporary location and sends a message to rabbitmq. A consumer then strips the audio from video, upload it to AWS S3, get text data using aws transcribe, and then generate a json string containing fields for the subtitle index, timestamp, speaker information, text, format tags, and other metadata. From that JSON string, I can build SRT or SSA subtitle files.

    ​

    What I need your help on:

    I can build the basic UI to playback the video/audio and display the entire subtitle file. However, I want the user to be able to edit the subtitles on the fly to clean up the stuff machine learning couldn't do well.

    I want display text line by line based on the current cursor of the video timestamp and allow the user to edit it on the fly.

    For example:

    User uploads video, gets transcribed and translated, now user is shown a page with a video and the text on the side. As the user scrolls through the video or text, the text and video timestamp should be linked. The user should then be able to edit the text if there's a mistake. The UI should look something like this

    https://imgur.com/a/FE1L6ae

    Now, I'm not asking for a solution, but rather for some insight on how I should do this, and what tools/frameworks should I use to make this happen? Basically how would a pro approach something like this?

    I'm currently learning nodejs but I'm not seeing how I could apply it here. Or should I just outsource this specific feature?

    ​

    Edit: I'm aware of services like this already existing, like rev.com but this is for my personal growth.

    How does npm work? How do I install a dependency correctly?

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 10:18 AM PDT

    Hi, I just started making my website after 3 years of mobile development. I created a simple html page and I want to create multiple custom elements in it with JavaScript.

    But I don't understand how to install dependencies in my project. Say, for example, I want to install fast. It says I need to run npm install --save @microsoft/fast-element. I ran it in my project root, and when I try to import the module in my index.js file with import { FASTElement } from '@microsoft/fast-element';, chrome tells me

    Uncaught SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module

    Do modules need to be "linked" in some way? Do I need to start the server with Node.js instead of http-server? Maybe I have to use require instead of import? I am lost, please help.

    WebAssembly Dynamic Tiering ready to try in Chrome 96

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 11:46 AM PDT

    Not very web-dev related, but does anyone know an API that tracks acquisition/mergers/backruptcy?

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 02:53 PM PDT

    Hi, I'm building a bot that tracks insider performance and I ran into this problem where like 20% of my database are from stocks that are delisted because of bankruptcy, brought out, or merger.

    Is there an API out there where I can put in a ticker symbol and it will output the status and if there was a merger/acquisition, how much was the price per share?

    Thank you.

    Preferably free if possible

    A comparison of modern frameworks

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 07:18 AM PDT

    Hi all,

    I've been a full stack dev for over 2 years now, and have had mostly React experience, but with some Angular and Vue thrown in as well (we move between projects a lot). Comically, his makes me one of the most well rounded front end developers in the company, so i'm in a unique position to potentially do a knowledge share on comparing the big 4 (i'm chucking Svelte in there too), and most importantly, when to use each of them. I'll also share the results in this sub if anyone's interested, with all the source code of course.

    I'm going to be creating the same relatively complex site in each framework, in order to test and display some criteria. Those criteria will be performance, bundle size, access to libraries, documentation/community support, opinionated-ness and complexity/development experience.

    Firstly, I'm wondering if there's any important criteria that i'm missing. Any suggestions would be very appreciated. Secondly, in the current climate of web development, would it seem disingenuous to just talk about vanilla React/Vue, or would you say it's assumed that an enterprise project would be using Redux/VueX (or any other state management library).

    Thanks, and any other feedback would be lovely (i can take constructive feedback I promise!).

    This is driving me wild...why isn't my array keeping it's elements?

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 02:41 PM PDT

     static async search(query: string): Promise<Station[] | null> { const stations: Station[] = []; const playlistResults = await(await fetch(`example.com`)).json() as PlaylistAPIResponse; if(playlistResults.success) { playlistResults.result.forEach(async (result) => { const station: Station = {} as Station; const stationId = result.station_id; station.text = result.callsign; const stationInfoResult = await(await fetch(`example.com`)).json(); station.streamDownloadURL = `example.com`; const stationInfo = stationInfoResult.result[0].stations[0]; station.image = stationInfo.station_image; station.subtext = stationInfo.slogan ? stationInfo.slogan : stationInfo.description; station.genre = stationInfo.genre; stations.push(station); console.log(stations) //outputs as expected }); console.log(stations) //outputs [] return stations; }

    The stations array is filled as expected when I console log from the loop, but once out it's suddenly empty. As I'm writing this, I'm starting to think it has to do with the async function?

    Is there a good reason why password requirements are not posted on the login screen?

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 02:28 PM PDT

    Is there a web safety issue or is it just common practice.

    I sometimes go to the sign up page to recall the password to a site.

    URL parameter encoding

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 02:12 PM PDT

    Anyone know about how to decode these? Reddit promoted links are a good example, but many sites now use parameters that don't seem to decode as base64. They typically have _ and - characters. Sometimes short strigs. Sometimes long. If I try to convert - and _ to + and / before decoding as base64 it's still gibberish.

    How do big platforms deals with thousands of small payments to their users?

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 07:20 AM PDT

    I was wondering, platforms like Gumroad, Kickstarter, Airbnb, how do they manage payments? I mean, they all sell something, they take a cut from the selling price and they send the rest on demand or once a month or something like that to the maker, home owner... As they deal with a lot of users, they send thousands of small transactions, how do they do that? What kind of software of system do they use?

    JS library for graphing huge amounts of data

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 12:46 PM PDT

    As the title suggests, i have a three csv files with 500k+ rows each. I tried graphing them using CHART.JS but the page crashes. The maximum # of rows i could graph was around 50k rows which is too small. Is there something i could do to make it support more values. If not, what other library could support that much data? Thank you in advance.

    Where to get help to get an idea running?

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 10:41 AM PDT

    Found an area in my profession where a certain type of website could be of assistance. Now this project is a bit more than I can do myself, so my question is, how does someone go about recruiting help for a project without giving away the idea so others can't take and run with it?

    I do myself have almost (1 semester short) of a CS degree, but I don't work in this field, I can code myself but don't do it professional so looking to see how to get my idea off the ground.

    Hope I've explained myself ok.

    Best way to test for pixel-perfectness in a CI/CD pipeline?

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 10:15 AM PDT

    Often when working in a team, I find that not everybody cares much about having their implementation match closely with Figma and I find it infuriating having to fix those issues myself.

    I was thinking if anyone just takes a screenshot of a Figma prototype and compares it against a screenshot of an implemented page (Using OpenCV SSIM or something) as a very crude and basic test.

    Or is there a better way to automate a visual check like this? It doesn't need to be a 100% match.

    Website change detection question

    Posted: 29 Oct 2021 09:53 AM PDT

    Hi. wanted to ask if anyone at yours could help with a specific issue we have

    we are a electrical equipment reseller. The distributer we use frequently changes stock availability and pricing on their trade website (that we have a log in for).

    However these changes aren't communicated to us. Which means that we get caught out with old prices on our site, or selling products (and then having to refund) we can't actually get as our distributers are sold out. It's not practical for us to keep manually checking their site for any changes to each product they sell.

    Therefore we are interested if there is a way for to monitor the distributer website (and all its '000s of product pages) that can update our site, or at very least alert us to changes so we can make them manually.

    Many thanks in advance.

    If you can do this, there is a budget for it!
