Reply to the guy from the last thread saying there is not point using WP if you don't want to use shitty plugins:
How so? It's a whole CMS. I'm using it because I don't want to go through a whole process of setting up a blog/news site/whatever. I just add some custom functions to it, but it still saves me tons of work.
Looking back at how much time it took me just to get a frontend going and coding a few hundred lines of custom functionalities, I can't imagine how long it would take me to build all the backend by myself, at least not on that level, both in terms of security and functionalites.

Of course, without it all would fall to pieces, or worse continue into corruption until nothing can be made to salvage the wreck that is no supervision of code.

I'm bundling code with webpack. For various reasons I can't load my images in my Sass files, so I have to require them into a .js file. Right now, I've required the images within a file that holds a function does work based around these images.
Is there a better or more logical place to write these image require statements than the function file I've placed them in currently? Is it convention to place them in say, index/app.js instead?

Google adsense doesn't pay out until you make $100. Are there any other good advertising platforms?
Justin Baker
That should motivate you to get 100 dollars.
Kayden Baker
Adsense denied me because my site doesn't have enough text. It's a webapp so it doesn't need much text, so I'm looking at other advertisers now

Do they pay per click or what? I tried Amazon but they only pay out if people actually buy the products using your affiliate code. Maybe I'll just charge a one time signup fee

It's pretty much the same as adsense, so yeah, pay per click.
It gives a great speed boost. So yes.

So what's after web dev?
I've maxed out salary and responsibility over the last 2 years, what comes next? im fuckin bored
I can do back end, front end, devops, sys admin, management, etc. guess ill just find me a higher paying job every couple of years for the rest of my life
life is underwhelming
Christian Rivera
what's the problem with this? It's exactly at compile types that you need to check your types. Are you specifically looking for reflection or something?
Keep in mind that compile time type checking does not exclude the presence of generics and inheritance and stuff (although not sure if typescript has this)
Caleb Baker

some good advice I've heard is that now is the time to stop worrying about a higher paying job. take a pay cut to go and work on an insanely interesting / important but insanely hard problem.

In today's world you can't go wrong doing javascript, seriously. There is so much shitty software that's being written in javascript that you can do some serious impact building automated QA systems around this.
Both server side and client side.
Databases are generally easy, if you have time I'd say learn mongo and mysql. mongo is just easier to get into considering that the hard part to learn is actually the programming language and not the database really
Jeremiah Myers
But also "php is garbage" meme is floated around only by people who don't have much experience writing software in general (or by people who have way too much experience in PHP).
PHP is still quite popular, if you've already chosen that don't doubt yourself.
Cameron Williams
PHP or node.js... pick one. PHP is more sought after in Europe, though.
MySQL or Mongo? GTFO. ACID databases, of course. NOSQL is a meme, and it's dead. Use MariaDB, though, or Postgres.

Postgres is the way to go. MariaDB hasn't figured out JSON column types yet which is upsetting because JSON is a gift from the gods. Also IP column types are pretty neat since I barely understand ipv4 and don't forsee myself wrapping my head around ipv6 well enough to check if an address is within a range or not. Postgres will do it all for me

this is likely out of scope for the thread but i'm going to ask anyway.
Anyone here moving into a more senior role at a more enterprise-like job?
I'm looking for more resources for this transition (promotion coming next month).
Some of the problems i'm facing/going to be facing:
* Being in a position of authority, including dictating work and having interns * Less coding, more managing * Maintaining and moving away from old code and stack (total rewrite would be best case scenario but not holding my breath) * Dealing with other seniors * OFFICE POLITICS
Current stack is a totally fucked up ASP.NET + JQUERY + shoe horned Angular 1 originally made by C++ devs in '09/10. I can't overstate how fucked it is.
Robert King
where2cop that elephant? its cute
Zachary Fisher
>ASP.NET + JQUERY + shoe horned Angular 1 originally made by C++ devs in '09/1 My sympathies, but you're on your own. Fuck that shit.
The NG1 was shoved in there by a junior dev who was forced to take it over. The digest cycle doesnt even run, so you have to wrap anything changing in timeout. It is absolutely bizarre.
Also all HTML is constructed by manipulating the DOM within JQuery + html in strings.
I can't make this up.
David Cox
>The digest cycle doesnt even run, so you have to wrap anything changing in timeout
thats incredibly fucked

Oh there is more - there is a js/jquery "framework" that was made internally years ago to make things "easier" so in order for me to make a button that even looks like it belongs on the page i have to make everything a with an id, then i call it in the javascript and "convert" it to a button, the "framework" does all the heavy lifting.
Everyone that wrote that framework was fired years ago, no one maintains it, there isn't even anyone to report bugs to.
If you don't use the framework, nothing works right. I'm vendor locked into an internal framework - its so fucked up.

Sure, thats how I normally do shit, but I am looking at a blank page and not even sure where to start other than creating the interface.
Jacob Wilson
If you look at pic related, what I want is for there to be 6 dots, and when you slide across using the arrows, the active dot (red) changes, is there a better way to do this other than have a new image each time (i.e somehow align 6 dot glyph icons like that).
Jaxon Ward
you can do that easily with css.
Xavier Hill
Thats what I thought, but I am struggling, is it just having 6 icons in a span and using absolute positioning?

Got it, nevermind, cheers.

What's the best way of keeping track of changes to a wiki entry?
Currently I'm storing every version of the page in the database and then I work out the diff whenever somebody requests it, but it feels a bit clunky, especially for minor edits.
Caleb Butler
what wiki? does it have a "last edited at" somewhere?
Noah Thomas
I'm writing one with Java and Spring MVC.
Nolan Lee
Web development in 2017? ASP.Net Core! What else seriously?
You're doing this all wrong, (can you even set the foreign key as the user import?).
Heres some ideas. A) 1) Set the different officers to standard django groups Set the different officers to the user ID 2) Set groups as a foreign key on your other tables and then just join all relevant groups. Then you can loops through the groups to see if user X is in one of the positions. B) Use raw SQL:
SELECT * from groups WHERE website = "niggers_r.us" AND (president = [userID] OR treasurer = [userID] OR ICC_rep = [userID]) LIMIT 1;

This works when I resize the web browser or use the mobile viewport emulator in Firefox and Chrome, but on real mobile devices, it does absolutely shit nothing (those styles are not applied).
I also have this meta tag:
What am I doing wrong?
James Smith
what's your devices resolution?
Eli Bennett
Ask a JavaScript/HTML/CSS hacker anything.
Daniel Nelson
1080x1920 (Nexus 5)
I know it is above the threshold, and this is what I do not understand. Many mobile devices have high resolutions, but I see websites using 480px, etc. as their breakpoints.
Brandon Howard
so your style says only apply for devices under 780pixels, your device exceeds this. That's why it doesn't apply it.
Generally you want to turn it around though. You style something for mobile and then apply your desktop style using min-width.
Connor Long
>Nvm found it :)
Josiah Green
how'd you do it? just curious.
Brayden Green
>Generally you want to turn it around though. You style something for mobile and then apply your desktop style using min-width.
Yes, thank you for the suggestion. This is my first responsive site, so I am just throwing things together as I learn.
I actually got it to work by removing screen and so that it just reads
@media (max-width: 780px) { ... }
Now the styles are applied to my real mobile device and in mobile emulators on the desktop.
It turns out that CSS "pixels" do not necessarily translate to screen pixels.
>These pixels have nothing to do with the actual pixel density of the device, or even with the rumoured upcoming intermediate layer. They’re essentially an abstract construct created specifically for us web developers.

k guys, i am trying to make a web extension that replaces baka desu senpai with the original words. Here is what I have in the content script so far, and it doesn't work: document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replace(/baka/g, 'baka'); document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replace(/desu/g, 'desu'); document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replace(/senpai/g, 'senpai');
Justin Rodriguez
I was wondering if I could get some help. Sorry, I forgot to ask for help in my original post. Also, the code has the original words in it, this website just replaces them.
