    Github slows developer production? web developers

    Github slows developer production?

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 09:58 AM PST

    I'm contracting with a company that has an internal development team about 8 people total.

    We are building a pretty complex codeignitor application, with jQuery and MYSQL. Lots of custom features, user roles, data analytics/reporting.(CRUD on steroids?)

    Anyway, I found some security bugs, and after the developers fixed via recommendations. There were other bugs that came.

    Upon having a meeting, im finding they have no version control besides their ticketing systems history.

    I recommended we start using github, then the lead developer says that at this point using a tool like github will cause too much overhead and slow feature development, ticket fixes, etc...

    In Summary im asking, as a developer do you really think using github hurts your personal production?

    Note: I'm working as a DevOps & Security Consultant for this project. I'm not a client hiring a team.

    Edit: Note

    the least you can do is have the decency to give feedback if you're going to pass on him/her. I'm just frustrated. I completed it, verified that I met the criteria, and left my thoughts on why I did it the way I did. All I got was "We'll pass on you".

    Today’s Tech Interview Questions I got

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 07:57 PM PST

    Hey guys, today I had a second round fullstack job interview. And I want to share all of the questions that I've gotten.

    First of all, Let me start sharing the first round interview that I did last week. I will write all of em as many as possible that I can remember.

    • General Question
    • Introduce yourself,
    • what made you apply for our company?
    • Have you ever used our service before?
    • (Looking over the resume) On your resume, you did some relevant activities, can ypu explain about them? Like what you have leaned etc..

    Tech interview - Have you ever used RDBMS? What is the difference between RDBMS and MongoDB??

    • what is functional programming??

    • cookie vs session

    • (he asked me some more questions, but I don't remember well)

    White board time

    1. Compression algorithm 112233 ==> 122232 111233 ==> 132132

    2. Find a pattern and explain {1,3,5,7,8} ^ {9,5,0,7,2} = 12 {7,9,2,3,4} ^ {5,3,1,8,6} = 3

    Second Round (today)

    I thought I would do some more coding challenges, but it wasn't.

    1. About the project you have done

    Instead they asked me to explain about the projects that I did, pick one and explain about the tech stack , architecture , features , how I created User model/ schema and etc..

    1. Data structures and algorithm
    2. Can you explain about hashmap?

    - array list and linkedlist

    1. Tech questions
    2. event loop

    - process and thread

    I will write some more questions if I can remember them..

    Hope it could help someone who prepares job interview :)

    Is tasking developers with creating detailed estimates a waste of company money?

    It’s just a fucking website.

    Can I prevent google from crawling a specific domain my site is hosted on?

    Posted: 07 Dec 2021 01:47 AM PST

    I am using a hosting provider that provides a base domain along the lines of id-company.provider.com (so I don't own this domain myself). I have in the mean time added my own domain name, but it is not possible to remove the default one. The issue is that this original domain is also showing up in the google search results for my website. I know I can prevent Google from indexing certain pages, but how do I prevent this default domain from being shown in the results?

    Is Web3 really the future?

    Posted: 05 Dec 2021 07:42 PM PST

    I've seen many posts on Tech Twitter talking about how Web3 is the future, but also Tech Twitter is full of people who either think JS is the best programming language or the worst, so it's filled with a lot of people who would just get into the first wagon it comes around, so I'd like to ask outside of Tech Twitter.

    Is Web3 really the future? Is it worth learning? What do you think?

    I don't really trust Tech Twitter at all to be totally honest...

    New to webdev, a bit confused on how hosting works?

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 05:04 AM PST

    Hi~~ Just for context I'm a computer engineering student, I have the bare basics of programming (python and c) and computer science down, so I roughly understand some aspects, but I'm still very confused about others, so I would really appreciate some guidance, thanks beforehand!! :)

    I know that I'm suppose to learn html, css and javascript, but what happens after that?

    What are the steps and things I need to know to go from coding the website, and then having it live and functioning on the web?

    What exactly is hosting? Can someone point me to some resources that go in depth with this?

    My goal this school break is to build a personal website to use as a portfolio :)

    And for that reason, I hope I can keep it as affordable as possible, because I don't really need traffic, I just want a website that I can send the link to someone and they can access it.

    ​

    Any help is appreciated, thank you :)

    What are some of the best marketplaces to sell your software?

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 05:59 AM PST

    I'm thinking about selling some web applications that I made for myself. Small little useful applications. I thought about Code Canyon, but their rev share is terrible. I'm looking for a marketplace because I don't want to do much advertising, I just want some passive organic sales.

    What are some of the best options?

    Student humbled me with HTML Booleans

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 09:50 AM PST

    I had a student give me a presentation on HTML which contained an example of HTML Boolean attributes written as follows:

     <input disabled="disabled">

    I told her that no one writes Booleans as such much preferring the concise version.

    However she was correct this full version is in the spec!

    https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Attributes#boolean_attributes

    https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/common-microsyntaxes.html#boolean-attributes

    Curious, how often do you see the full version in the wild?

    How to target the color of background of whole scrollbar region (not background of track)

    Posted: 07 Dec 2021 01:04 AM PST

    How to target the color of background of whole scrollbar region (not background of track)

    Here I've made the scrollbar's track take up less space than I'd normally have it take up. I do however want there to be a small region above and below the track which is not taken up by the track itself so the track can be an capsule-shaped container.

    ​

    This region is a part of the whole scrollbar, but not a part of the track. How can I target this?

    This region is not a part of the track, but a part of the whole scrollbar. How do I target this?

    Sorry for the poor color contrast, but notice here that this region is a different color than the footer beside it. It's taking on the color of my body. I want this to be transparent so the color behind it comes through. Is this possible?

    The relevant CSS:

    ::-webkit-scrollbar { width: 1.375rem; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-track { background: black; border-radius: 10px; margin: 2rem 0; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb { background: red; border-radius: 10px; }

    How can I achieve the desired result? I've tried assigning a background color to the ::-webkit-scrollbar selector, but to no avail. Also, this scrollbar is for the whole page

    Edit: Apparently, I can set its color by just doing background-color on ::-webkit-scrollbar, but making it transparent just makes it inherit the color of the body.

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 08:01 AM PST

    Hi guys,

    I'm still fairly new to the job, and I work a regular 9-5 as a full stack junior dev.

    Do you guys are productive all day ? Or sometimes have very blank moment ?

    I feel like I'm very productive in the morning and struggle to focus in the afternoon, is it a normal thing to do or am I just a lazy bad employee ? Thanks

    What's your approach to frontend development?

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 04:42 PM PST

    Hey all,

    Coming from a WordPress background - most of my front-end stuff has usually been the old school: come up with the design in Photoshop or Illustrator, make static HTML + SASS mock ups and then convert that into the plugin and/or theme.

    I feel like I've been left behind as WordPress has been using React more and more and a lot of the Gutenberg block development workflow really does my head in.

    Keen to hear how you approach this kind of stuff design-wise and for re usability.

    Explicit Typescript return types helps to clarify async/await functions. When we know that the return type is a Promise we can then sometimes omit the async keyword as in this example

    Best option for small local business website

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 06:30 PM PST

    Best option for a small local business website

    I currently have a google sites website for my local business. This is not ecommerce / I am not selling anything on the website. Just a static / informational site to get leads (service type of business). My google sites isn't ranking or showing up much, though.

    I am looking to get a new website and work on seo / ranking locally. Looking for advice. I am considering square space. I have also read that Wordpress is superior but I can't afford to pay a professional $1,000+ to build a site for me. Is there an easy way to use a template and make my own Wordpress site? Or do I need to have coding knowledge?

    I don't need a complicated or fancy website, I actually like the way my google sites looks right now and it looks better than a lot of the square space templates for what I'm trying to do. Really the issue with google sites is that I'm not ranking or showing up in searches.

    I don't live in a major city and there isn't too much competition from competitors websites. With a budget around $500 MAX what is my best option? Thanks

    Issues running Python in VSCode

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 09:52 PM PST

    Hi, i'm having the weirdest issue with VSCode and is driving me crazy.
    So I run a simple code (e.g print("hello world")) and it works fine sometimes but others it just throws an error in the terminal.

    SyntaxError: invalid syntax

    File "<stdin>", line 1

    I can copy the code, create a new py file and paste the code and it works fine until it fails again.
    I have reinstalled, download python again, download older versions of python and it's still happening.

    Any idea?
    Thanks

    How do Zoom's/Skype's Backends look like? What tech do they use? How did Discord implement their Video Live Streaming feature?

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 05:42 PM PST

    Whenever I look at how to implement something like that, no matter if it's through a free software like Kurento Janus Media Server, or managed service like OpenVidu Wowza or Mux, they all have one thing in common: their implementation (on AWS/GCP/...) is damn expensive! Creating an own Live Streaming site would be a huge financial risk without enormous big venture capital.

    Or am I retarded? What do Zoom and Skype use to save money?

    Is running Kurento or Janus Media Server really that expensive? Maybe it is extremely cheaper running it on a baremetal server like Hivelocity?

    What are your experiences?

    What do pros use for client-side form validation?

    Posted: 06 Dec 2021 12:32 PM PST

    I'm learning web dev and have been experimenting with HTML's native form validation + the Constraint Validation API.

    Is this what most of you pros actually use in the real world? If not, what libraries or tools are the best? I'm interested in non-React AND React options. Thank you
