/wdg/ - Web Development General

JavaScript is a meme lol great pic OP

I have a phone call about a position soon.

I don't even know how to prepare.

>>58319376
A phone call interview will probably be pretty simple.

You should start preparing for the whiteboard interview, though.

>>58319439

>whiteboard interview for web dev

do they really do this? thought that was only for software engineer positions.

>>58319439
I'm very ready for a whiteboard.

This company has 11 employees though. If they whiteboard me I will be disappointed.

>>58319460
They do. I hear they don't even let you use stackoverflow for help.

>>58319460
>do they really do this?

"Tell me a little about yourself?"

Oh god. I forgot about this question.

>>58319543

its the easiest one you idiot

>>58319543
Literally "Brag about all your accomplishments"

Well, the call is in 8 minutes.

I think I have supplied my pockets with an adequate amount of spaghetti.

Since this is pretty much the best place for this, without much shitposting, I'd just like to ask for a quick feedback of this layout (and a design in general). It's almost impossible to get any.

>https://the-kinematograph.rhcloud.com/

I can't tell if the header should have more info or not. Ignore a few bugs.

P.S. - I bet some anons have already seen this, since I posted it before. Just want to mention that people don't use the sidebar at all if it is hidden on default. I'll just put a hide button on top and make it work like YouTube's, I guess. Otherwise, it's more or less finished.

>>58319810
>https://the-kinematograph.rhcloud.com/
Comments section in a side-bar is kinda dumb. Not wide enough to have lots of information in it. Otherwise I think it's pretty well-made site.

Since we're shilling sites: https://om-verysimplyms.rhcloud.com/

Only works in latest versions of chrome and firefox

>>58319845
Oh, it just lists latest comments there, like, their excerpts. I could change the length of an excerpt and add more info, though. Thanks!

From what I can see from yours, it looks pretty nice, colors are sweet. Don't have a webcam or mic so I guess I can't test a functionality, though.

>>58319915
The site should, ideally, work fine without mic + webcam. You can deny it and it should work without issue, similar to omegle's text-only chat.

Nobody is ever on my site though, so you probably still wouldn't be able to test functionality :^)

vue 1 or vue 2?

>>58319460
they ask you to write the names of some frameworks on the board lol

>>58319845
How do you do the webcam stuff?

I know how to use HTML5 to get video, but not send it to others. Flash server?

>>58320110
You're fucked. They're incompetent.

>>58320117
Good. I am too. We should get along fine.

>tfw no call

Maybe they found someone already.

Only 3 people had applied when I applied and now 22 have.

I wonder how many of them are from India. I DO GOOD PRICE 3 DOLLAR HOUR TO ME THANK YOU COME AGAIN.

Anyone have a good guide to building a site or blog specifically to monetize through advertising.

>>58320308
Call them instead. If they're as incompetent as I think they are, they probably literally forgot.

>>58320629
No listed phone number.

I will just email about a reschedule.

>>58319460

Any company that does that is pretty shit.

I've a crap memory and can't remember syntax for shit. You ask them generic coding principle questions or give them programming exercises to do at home. No one works without being able to look shit up, especially in web development where You're working with 6+ languages together (plus god knows how many frameworks).

That said I tanked an interview once and I had no idea why. Was a fairly generic drupal job, interview was over and done with in under 10 minutes so I knew I'd done badly. Got a call from the agency, apparently the guy was really angry, said I'd wasted their time and knew nothing.

I couldn't remember them asking me a single technical question, they had no fucking idea what my ability level was. Only thing I could think of was that I must have mispronounced a framework or just mixed up a word at some point. Didn't care too much though, ultra shitty commute to the middle of nowhere, everyone seemed up themselves and half their building was currently flooded.

>>58319439
You're going to be asked standard HR shit. They're going to ask you your pay rate. You might be asked some technical stuff the HR person won't know about but she'll write down your response to give the actual department. So brushing up on terminology won't hurt.

Good luck.

Should I use w3school or codeacademy to learn html? I have been using w3school for the past while and just found out it might not be a good site but I haven't had any problems with it

Does anyone know which tutorial site is the best for web dev? I'd like to get a subscription to one as a supplement for learning some of this stuff. I'm at a pretty basic level skillwise. I had access to a Lynda account when I was in school, it seemed OK but I just want to know if there's anything better out there.

Since I'm really bad at linq this is my solution to parse an html document and return the content in the div block.
[
string textSnippet = String.Concat(String.Concat(reviewBlock.Split(new string[] { "<div itemprop=\"reviewBody\">" }, StringSplitOptions.None).Skip(1).ToArray()).Split(new string[] { "</div>" }, StringSplitOptions.None).Take(1));
]

Please tell me there's a more succint approach to solve this problem.

When giving an inline-block div a padding it goes over the next div.

How do I avoid this?

>>58322806
Change the width and height of it to compensate for padding lad, margin,border,and padding all add to the length and width of a div. You may think padding wouldn't because it happens inside the div, but it does m80

>>58322629

I don't know C# but I do know there will be a better way of doing that.

There will be some DOM loader type function that'll load html as an object and let you more safely extract a particular element.

Never use text find type functions to traverse HTML, the edge cases are a nightmare, you're coding a HTML parser.

>>58322629
Use Regex.
Or Linq.

Give me the original text sample and what you want from it because I have a headache. I'll write you a school lesson.

>>58322868
I have multiple <li> with one of these in each one of them:

<div  id="comment_40413_">


<meta itemprop="name" content="Ok">

<div itemprop="reviewBody">Satisfied with it, pretty good.</div>
</div>
</div>

It's the reviewBody content I want.
Tnx!

Why is the animation eating the other div? I can't z-index it out.

http://codepen.io/webdevhehehe/pen/ZLYbYP

>>58323299
Simultaneously fixed and broke it;

>>58323299
Kinda confused.

What's supposed to happen and what's actually happening?

>>58323299
What do you mean with eating the other div?
Can you provide a screenshot what it's doing and what it should be doing?
it looks fine on firefox.

>>58323255
You have two options. Navigate the DOM cleanly using .NET and LINQ, or just regex it out.
Looking at your earlier attempt, it seems like you don't particularly care for the DOM order of the elements, so it'll be a lot easier.

4chan thinks my help-links are spam so for REAL google
"msdn csharp regex"
and
"regexr"

string pattern = @"(?:<div itemprop=""reviewBody"">).*(?:</div>)";
string textsnippet; //= ...

foreach( var match in Regex.Matches(input, pattern, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase) )
{
  //...
}

Regex is a collection of escape characters and shortcuts for finding something in text.
Simply specifying " <div itemprop=""reviewBody""> " will find that item in the text.
" (?: <div itemprop=""reviewBody""> ) " will look for that, but not return it.
" .* " will match any number of any non-newline character.
" (?: </div> ) " means that again, we're searching for this but don't return it.
I suggest you look into some readings next for Regex.
Keep in mind though, that Regex is not the PROPER solution to your problem here.
You may later want to only fetch instances of this that are inside another specific element or with more complex logic. Then you'll be looking at using C# and LINQ with DOM objects which will parse the text and present it as an XML tree for you to navigate.

>>58323453
I had display: inline-block; so the animation was moving within the parent div.

I set to float right to fix, but then had overflow. Turned off overflow and everything seems to be better.

reading an angular2 book right now

does it get good at any point?

angular1 syntax was pretty bad, but this is some new level of retardation

>>58323477
Thanks a million! Will use this in a lot of places!

still pretty new to JS to and web dev
any books to help me understand programming concepts in general? reading YDKJS currently

>>58323477
thats slow as fuck you clown stick to js

>>58323493
You can also change the min-width to a higher number (256 worked for me) and should get your ideal results that way as well.

>>58323452
Ok, take a look now.

The div that says "something" is ontop of the twitter icon div.

>>58323501

no

>>58323555
Regex is the fastest Generic solution to the problem that can be expressed in the fewest expressions. It's clean and not too confusing, leading to its widespread adoption. It may not be as fast as a forloop, but I would wager money that the poster would rather sacrifice a couple microseconds of performance ( in a compiled fast language! ) for a clean solution they can learn a new ability from than write for loops.
It's also eons faster than their previous solution of splitting a thousand arrays.
In either case, no, JavaScript would not be faster.

>>58323537
No problem. As mentioned it's a pretty popular thing present in most standard libraries. It's also something I've found that everyone 'knows of', but doesn't know how to use. You can get easy brownie points with a basic knowledge.

>>58322409
Bump for help plz

I don't know if anyone here will remember me from the previous thread a day or so ago. I had a stack that was from 2009/2010 written by C++ devs using JQuery to manipulate the dom. All HTML was span tags with ids, and used an internal library (the team who wrote it was fired) to create shit like buttons, textboxes etc.

4 files of 40,000 lines of jquery mixed with html strings.

First day back to work yesterday it was announced the web client would be put into legacy status and i would be leading the new direction and client.

Could not of gone any better and I didn't do a damn thing.

can anyone tell me why this doesn't work?

    $queryPrevName = $dbh->prepare("SELECT * FROM ReplacementOrders WHERE [Replacement-#] < ? AND [Name] LIKE ? ORDER BY [Replacement-#] DESC LIMIT 1;");
    $nameParam = array("$repNum", "%$searchText%");
    $queryPrevName->execute($nameParam);
    $prevName = $queryPrevName->fetch();

normally i would just bindValue() but i can't since i'm using a LIKE statement in SQL.

>>58322409
Picture is the most pure truth.

Don't use that sites, they are just a way to take money out of you.
My suggestion, learn the basics of:
A web framework and a language to use in the backend(python django/flask are good options);
Client side JavaScript framework(Angular, React);
HTML/CSS.

Think of something you like and implement it. It's the best way to learn anything.

Just enabled caching on my site(used a config from Stackoverflow). And now whenever you load the site for the first time(or after clearing cache/new incognito window), the banners div text and background image disappears?

Ugh, I updated jQuery from 1.12.4 to 3.1.1 and apparently THAT broke the site's banner(and menu animation). Really weird, menu animations worked randomly and the banner only rendered after refresh.

Sorry to keep bothering, but do I download jQuery Migrate to check what's wrong then?

>>58327009

Thanks for the advice anon. I was really wanting to get into Ruby/Rails but I've heard that it's been dying in demand for a while (at least that's what I hear), I've never seen a job listing that asked for Ruby yet.

I assume that just making various applications is the way to go?

>>58327064
Developed it in 2015, used a template(Yeah I know) and that heavily relied on jQuery. Had a look on their page and migrating shouldn't be too bad

Yes.

>>58327129

Nothing wrong with using templates imo, as long as it doesn't look too generic and you manage to customize it enough. Templates are great for people with no design skills.

So I made a webapp with buttons in it. Some of the buttons are pressed rapidly. So I need to disable zooming so that double taps don't zoom in on the button. So I do

Do I need to know CSS before learning JavaScript? I already know HTML. I mean I can always outsource web design or freelance it. I want to learn JavaScript, PHP, PYTHON, .NET, SQL, and JAVA. I want to start an SEO/Online Digital business later on.

>>58328648
no but you may end up using alot of css in your js depending on what you do. like if you are modifying the style of a div element you will be changing the css via js:

document.getElementById(some_id).style.cssProperty = abc;

if you are into web dev then you should probably be familiar with basic css

>>58328648
You really can't do HTML without CSS these days.
Just learn enough CSS to use a framework like Bootstrap and you won't have to worry about it again

The flight software will execute the command sent by the calling on-board script and return telemetry, which will be evaluated in real-time by that on-board script.

i do alot of hobby-level hardware work in js but that's kind of scary

how can I put loop into array data?

I have this

for (i = 0; i < 5; i++) { 
 var test = {      
                data: [i]
            };
}        
 

but I only get one value

>>58331197

var test = [];
// for loop
test[i] = {
data: i
};
// end for loop

>>58331233
it doesn't seem to be working, could it be because I have other arrays inside test except data?

>>58331349
if test is already an object/variable then you could just append it with push. otherwise you might want to try explaining in more detail what you are trying to do.

// for loop
test.push({ data: i });
// end for loop

>>58331422
I have something like this

   var test = {
                label: 'dataset title',
                backgroundColor: 'blue',
                 data: [ array[0].test, array[1].test, array[2].test, array[3].test, array[4].test ]
            };

the data gets values from another array but the problem is the array changes length constantly so I want a loop with i<array.length to put values in data

>>58331075
I guess the kernel wouldn't let them do something stupid with JS, just like your browser doesn't let a web page do something stupid.

>>58331597
```
array.map(a => {label: 'dataset title',
backgroundColor: 'blue',

Just tell your clients that there are only 2% of global IE8 users...

One more thing...

Of those 2% of global IE8 users how many percentage of probability do you think those 2% of users would land on his "goddamn nonsense" website anyway?

.000000000000000002% chance of those 2%
global IE users would land on his page!

And WHEN does he expect those .000000000000000002% of users to land on his page? So if your client's life expectancy is 70 then 70 * 24 sqrt 5/.000000000000000002% * 24 * 365 = ?

Videos won't even play on my tablet. Getting off to a good start...

Uhm...am i missing something here?

Say i want to create a site where people can upload and view webms. Lets say each webm file is 5mb, and in one month about 1000 webms are uploaded, so thats 5gb of data. If i store this in an AWS S3 bucket, that would cost me "$0.023 per GB", or 115 USD. Next, say i get about 1000 requests a day for a month. So thats 30.000 requests a month. If i use a CDN like Cloudfront, that would cost me "$0.085 per GB", or 2550 USD.

So for a small shitty site with barely any content or users, it could cost me almost up to 3K USD a month...

I thought shit like this was supposed to be cheap? Is that really what things like this costs???

>>58334556
Ah nevermind... 1000 * 30 *= 30.000 * 5mb = 150.000mb or 150gb * 0.085 = 12,75 USD.

Correct or am i still a dumbass?

RewriteRule ^item/(.*)/(.*)/$ /index.php?$2=$3 [QSA,L]

But it didn't work with the second line so I merged them together.
This worked:

RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/$ /index.php?pg=$1&$2=$3 [QSA,L]

it gave me a response after I checked what's in the item's category by using GET['category'] for example, http://localhost/item/drinks/soda would be like GET['drinks'] would return "soda"

BUT the only problem arises now is that, when I go to let's say http://localhost/about/ it fucking 404s on me via the .htaccess even though I have my rewriteengine On. This thing has been bothering me for several days now, I can't seem to find a way around it without declaring

RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ index.php?pg=$1 [QSA,L]]

What should I do to stop getting 404 pages from the .htaccess? I mean, it's very annoying how http://localhost/about is totally different from http://localhost/about/ getting it to redirect to the latter was weird, but that works, but not for the later things like http://localhost/item/drinks/soda ;_;

>>58335626
Oops, the first code shouldn't be commented, should be like

RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ index.php?pg=$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^item/(.*)/(.*)/$ /index.php?$2=$3 [QSA,L]

>>58335626
>>58335640

RewriteRule ^([a-z]*)/?$ index.php?pg=$1 [QSA,L,NC]
RewriteRule ^item/([a-z]*)/([a-z]*)/?$ /index.php?$2=$3 [QSA,L,NC]

don't use . to match, it also matches forward slashes.

>>58335730
Alright that works, though doing it like this worked too (from the other thread (>>58335575) )

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/$ /index.php?pg=$1&$2=$3 [QSA,L]

Also, I had to change $2=$3 to $1=$2 with the two liner one because it didn't work as I expected.

Now the thing is that, how to redirect to a ./ for a page like http://localhost/item/drinks/soda -> http://localhost/item/drinks/soda/

I currently have

# index.php to /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /.*index\.php\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(.*)index\.php /$1 [R=301,L]

# always a / at the end                                                     
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !../+$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !./+$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/+$
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([a-zA-Z0-9]+)
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ /%1/? [R=301,L]

You can tell I suck ass at regex and I was just copying and pasting whatever I found that worked, then modified it a bit to see if it worked or not. This works for the regular http://localhost/about -> http://localhost/about/ redirect but doesn't for the latter.

Any good sources to get gud at regex and htaccess stuff?

Thank you by the way.

>>58335773
>>58335730
Nevermind, yours work perfect. The longer one integrated with your regex still gives me 404s from the .htaccess. Guess something is breaking the rewriteengine when doing so. Or maybe that first line is important.

>>58328563
It's good for noobs just learning things (i.e. people who are on github a lot) because you can very quickly make a real thing that actually works with just some basic js skills.

It's very awkward and inefficient to use in production though, especially if you want client/server separation and a REST API, so you pretty much never see it used for real life stuff.

>>58328648
>Do I need to know CSS before learning JavaScript?
Technically no, but CSS is easy as fuck to learn and things will be a lot harder for you not to know it. You don't need to master it, but if you take a day or two to get the gist down, you'll be much better off.

>I mean I can always outsource web design or freelance it.
You're handicapping yourself by not knowing it. What if you just want to tweak something a little? Would you want to pay a designer to do something that you could do yourself in a few minutes?

> I want to learn JavaScript
Sounds good
>, PHP, PYTHON, .NET, SQL, and JAVA.
You're getting waaaay ahead of yourself. Learn SQL (easy) and only one of the other ones. They all have their pros and cons, and all do basically the same thing. Other popular options are NodeJS, Go, and Ruby.

>I want to start an SEO/Online Digital business later on.

>>58337761
The code you type in the JavaScript panel is wrapped inside a function before being executed in the lower right panel, that means the functions you define in there are not accessible via HTML
You need to attach them dynamically via event listeners, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/EventTarget/addEventListener

>>58332541
PHP is reasonably fast for most needs (especially 7)
If it isn't fast enough the first thing you should do is look at how you can optimize your code because that's almost always where the bottleneck is. If that's not enough, you can use something like HHVM to compile it or just use a faster language.

use a JS framework and call your backend with ajax only.
see angular, ember, react etc.

>>58338924

so thats why all these meme js frameworks are popular...how would i call queries with ajax tho? how similar is it to php/sql apps?

you don't.
your backend with PHP or whatever does.

Where in the world do you execute javascript in there?

>>58339270

well im using conditions. I hide and show divs based on if some submit types are set or not. First I tried to just use jquery and say "if this button is clicked then hide/show this div"....BUT it would still go through even if the submit button didn't meet the backend validation requirements i gave it.

>>58339379

disgusting, use a MVC framework.

>>58339388

ya all of this is raw PHP. I'm learning a lot though. It's a pretty complex app. You sure some .js framework, ajax, and php won't be overkill?

>>58339432
for what?

>>58339441

it's a heavy duty CRUD app. Ideally it would have been awesome to have this app be a one page app that never refreshes the page after each request

>>58339472
then no, why would it be overkill.

>>58339542
You write HTML+CSS+JS, they output an .apk/.ipa/whatever-extension-windows-phones-use that can be installed and run on Android/iOS/Windows Phone
"Native" usually means that the UI components are generated using the operating system's native components (eg Activity in Android).
There's also other "non-native" projects (see: Ionic) that let you do the same thing as React Native but instead of using native components, they just run a pseudo-browser, present it as an app and run your code in there

>>58319171
how would you notice if your api stopped working? do you write in some kind of self-tester?

i wrote one that takes in ajax and sends email with nodemailer. do you res.send the success message or an error message to the AJAX requester? my end users are just joe blow off the street so they have no incentive to report errors.

oh wow i didn't know React could do that. Sounds comfy.

pretty sure sublime has autocomplete and a file tree

>>58339735
then it's an IDE.

>>58339739

nah its a text editor. What makes it super comfy is the package manager. I think the file tree and autocomplete are enabled by default. There are better autocomplete packages you can install tho. It's pretty comfy

>>58339778
for me a text editor has no filetree or is aware of other files.
but I guess there's no definition of what an IDE actually is and what not.

Anyone have any experience with monetization through captcha ads? I've looked around and not found anything decent. Perhaps drop the idea and just get regular locally-generated captchas or Google's captchas?

Where do you get time on an "Assembly Line" to stare at your phone all day?

What you should do is practice what's called 'Deep Work'. Go on libgen.io and look up the book Deep Work by Cal Newport (computer science prof).

You get up 1-2hrs before work everyday and use that time for concentrated work on webdev or whatever it is you want to practice or learn. After a few weeks you will train your brain for concentration and it pays off like compounding interest, soon you'll rapidly make progress whereas if you glance at a phone all day you'll learn shit.

>>58344956
Take webassembly, it's the future anyway. You can compile C/C++ or Rust to webAsm.

All these javascript frameworks will be extinct within 2 years, and there will no longer be such a thing as 'apps'. Instead what you will do is use a browser to download a proprietary binary that runs local on your device and interacts with the remote API. All future phones will just be a browser and nothing else because calendars/clocks everything will be webAsm.

It's the evil future Stallman warned us about though we can always create free webAsm binaries. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11976509

>>58345103
But web assembly is actually bytecode, not a native executable binary file

So I'm making an e-mail waitlist, and when ever a person signs up it stores that e-mail for later use. Is there an e-mail redirecting service that signs people up for a wait list so when the website is launched it sends them an e-mail notifying of it? Or am I gonna have to make a back-end to make this happen?

>>58345173
WebAssembly is not bytecode: Bytecode is linear and (usually) stack/register/SSA-based, wasm is a binary format for an abstract syntax tree (AST).

WebAssembly eliminates the parser as a bottleneck so will be insanely fast whenever it's ready for production.

>>58345366
Web assembly is byte code running on a virtual machine. Obviously it'll be faster than parsing JavaScript as it's executed, but it's not goign to be "insanely fast". It'll be similar to Java or or .NET.

>>58345458
WebAssembly is not bytecode it's a binary format which is different. It's like bytecode in that it allows for universal VMs but it's a binary format for AST/S-expressions you compile with C/C++ and LLVM (and soon lisp).

So lets say I have all img.src from a page stored in an array, which is fairly easy to do if you know any sort of DOM traversal...how do I then transform those src into actual images?

Obviously save the log of the console but then what? Hear someone said he used wget but no experience whatsoever with this and rather curious...

>>58345815
As in, you have an array of image urls and you want to use wget to save them to your computer?

Join the array with newlines (

arr.join("\n");

) and write it to the page somewhere you can copypaste it. Then do this in a terminal:

mkdir ~/your_images
cd ~/your_images
touch urls.txt

(then paste the list of urls into urls.txt and save it)

wget -i urls.txt

then wait a bit while wget downloads your images to the current directory
?????

of course, if you're trying to do all that programmatically without having to copy/paste, you'll need to find or create some crawling software

>>58328648
You should learn HTML and CSS before JavaScript in my opinion. Then pick a professional one like Ruby or Python and stick with it/master it.

When you're using JavaScript for web dev, you end up using CSS a lot in your js, and knowing how the three (HTML, CSS, JS) interact together is really important. They're kind of like, the core of web dev.

>>58346572
You can do it with powershell. According to stackoverflow, you do it like this:

$client = new-object System.Net.WebClient
$client.DownloadFile("http://www.xyz.net/file.txt","C:\tmp\file.txt")

DIVERSITY IS OUR STRENGTH

I've got a question about what's safe to share on github.

keep in mind im a newb.

I have a project with a mysql database. if the database is just running locally, do I need to be worried about sharing code with user/pass info for the SQL server? seems like that would only be an issue if it was some public server. since I'm just using localhost for the mysql server it's fine to have a user/pass for the database in my project right?

>>58347922
Put the database login info in a special file and add it to your .gitignore.

Also, use a dev database while you dev and a production database on live.

>>58347947

thanks for the info, but I'm really just thinking about Dmitris and Pajeets running scripts to find my info and mess with my database. not really looking for best practices info.

so if just running on localhost:3306 or whatever my username/pass won't be good for anything right?

>>58347922

just replace the username and pw with "xxxxxx"'s. The database is local so they wouldnt be able to access it anyway.

>>58347996
If your database is just exposed to localhost and not the general internet it's impossible to access unless they logged into your server through SSH in the first place.

Putting any kind of username/password info on a public git is still stupid. Just use .gitignore. Why use git if you're just going to halfass it. Might as well just use dropbox or something if you don't want to learn the basics of git.

Oh boy are you in for a surprise. Also, you mention ajax like it's a framework or something -- it's just a paradigm, so if you tell somebody you're "using ajax" they'll probably laugh at you.

>>58339496
If you're just starting out, diving straight into Angular or React is probably a bad idea.

> ive seen some Angular apps that were slow as shit
I've seen Angular, React, Meteor, Backbone, even vanilla JS apps that were slow. No amount of framework or libraries will save you from writing a slow application if you're a bad programmer

>>58323501
no but stick with it lad, in a year Angular 2 devs are going to be in HIGH demand. Its a lot better than the shit that was AngularJS and will compete very well with React (Until kikebook releases a newer version to compete that its)

This anon is so fucking right lad, I can't even begin to explain, when I was still scrub status (I still am to a degree) and learning HTML/CSS/JS I would go through Jon Duckett's pajeetbooks

https://www.amazon.com/Design-JavaScript-jQuery-Duckett-2014-07-08/dp/B01JXS1RKG/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8

that had no questions/assignments at the end of each chapter btw, and just make my own shitty miny coding challenge like "oh i'll use js to make this div have a red background" or "oh i'll use js to make a slider" etc.

Now I read a book that i most likely pirated all the way through without coding shit and then make something yuuge. Once I finished the first HTML/CSS book I sat down at a computer hoping to make something that looked good but realized i didnt know shit even though i did all those faggy assignments. You will realize whenever you are using a new language/framework/whatever you will feel very helpless until you bring yourself through hellfire making something that looks professional like that anon's russian movie site before me. Just read something as reference then program your heart out lad.

Also while I'm at it you will learn jack shit from places like codeacedemy. If go to your local library and get a free lynda account (at least thats the case in my city) or pirate some book then do what I did

I'm curious lad and could google it myself but what is vue and what is /g/'s opinion on it (from people that have used it)?

>>58349508
More like in a year Angular 1 devs are going to be in HIGH demand, because everybody's jumping ship to whatever bullshit flavor of the month is popular.

You're better off just getting a proper handle on web components, because *that* seems to be the way things are going, if anything.

Add a directory outside of public_html that isnt publicly accessed and store the info in a .ini file, then write a class in your public_html that specifically parses that ini file, gets the db/username/pass, then returns a PDO or mysqli connection for you to use. That way you wont even have to upload the .ini file containing special information to github in the first place. Safest way that i know but im still quite the scrub

>>58348127
anon all you literally need to do is include the file in .gitignore if youre going to do that, god damn

>>58349764
good point anon

>dying in demand

Yea, we'll see how far up his own ass DHH is. If he stays really, really far up his own ass, then it's dead because rails can't do SQL right, and it can't do javascript right. If he gets his head out of his ass then you'll see rails drop it's fucking shit-tier "asset pipeline" bullshit in favor of something javascript devs actually want to use. If he REALLY gets his head out of his ass, then it'll be even better because he'll stop loudly telling his shitty rails-dev cult about how he's the greatest and how nobody needs to know any SQL... then maybe you'll see moderately performant rails apps become the norm instead of the exception.

>>58347922
Use environment variables. Then you don't even need to have anything ignored and you'll have smoother deploys.

I literally RREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE'd. Fizzbuzz isn't some fucking complex shit, you could solve fizzbuzz after your first 3 chapters of babby's first programming language. Anyone whose literally not fucking retarded should know that.

first hex string decodes to WScript.Shell, sounds like an attempt to exploit IE

>>58350821
Go on. I believe this is a new exploit because the site in question is used by dissidents of a particular country. It might contain a 0-day.

>>58350842
Turkey? It looks like a privilege escalation / remote code execution type of exploit, it's trying to get in thru the javascript interpreter to execute a command that i cant figure out yet, it might attempt to install a backdoor / logger to track the dissidents I imagine.
Not sure if its related to this, its a zero day

>>58350842
this sounds closer to what the exploit says

Lads, I can't be fucked to type this up again. Any MEAN stack buffs here with some input?

I think you solved it. Anyway, I've removed that post so retards don't get infected by that shit. It contains a link to some EXE (I ran it in a VM and watched wireshark traffic).

>>58347398
maybe because they're hipster

>>58321944
>Any company that does that is pretty shit.

You should be able to at least do it in pseudo code. They aren't testing your coding skills. They want to see if you can think on your feet and communicate well.

>>58351033
I'm wading through a MEAN stack site because I took it over from a useless cokehead dev and that's what he wrote it in.
Fucking end my suffering.

Eh, I know but if it dies and someone is searching for /wdg/ there won't be one.
I managed to fix my problem anyway.

Lads, never, NEVER agree to fix someone else's code. Fuck me.

back end development is pretty much programming

>>58353214
I work at a giant tech company (you waste your time on our website every day) doing backend development and its the most tedious shit.

Most backend development is rewriting the same shit ad infinitum.

Infrastructure or any sort of non-web software >>>>>>>> web development

I've got a .ogg live stream on my site that plays music.

But sometimes in my firefox browser, (might be other browsers as well but i've only seen it there) it stops playing from the live feed and starts playing from some cache instead. No matter how many times i refresh the page it starts playing the same buffered audio over and over again. If i want it to go back to the livestream i have to restart my browser and visit the page again.

Does anyone know if there's a possible fix? i think its a browser issue, but it would be nice to fix it in the code anwyays,

The JS community has moved back to using npm.
Don't bother with bower or whatever

What's a good certification to go for in the UK for web development? I'm learning the basics right now and I want something to help me find work when I'm done.

>>58351103
There's nothing wrong with MEAN tho
If you understand routing and middleware you can write super clean and efficient code
The '../../../..' from hell do suck I'll give you that

>>58342416
We are using javascript because it's cross platform. This does not appear to work on windows

>>58349627
It's like react but simpler and less facebooky

>>58349627
It's babbys first SPA framework
It's not shit but I suggest using React/Redux instead. Less opinionated and can scale to huge fucking apps

t. currently working as a React dev, have used Angular1 in the past and dabbled in NG2 and Vue

>>58350976
>MEME stack

I feel like I should take one of the existing MEAN stacks and extend it to include babel from the get-go in order to promote the use of ES6.
I'll call it ENEMA.

>I've a crap memory and can't remember syntax for shit.
Who wants to hire a programmer who doesn't even know a language well enough to write fizzbuzz without having to look up where the curly braces go?

alright wdg im gonna bite the bullet and learn React. I still don't get how I use a backend language with it...

>>58337432
A simple and easy solution is running a

setTimeout(someReadAllFunction(), 5000)

which consumes a REST resource via GET every 5 seconds
the function should of course merge the return data into the apps state.

>>58357186
good luck mate keep at it
the official docs are pretty good. especially those of Redux once you're ready to get into that, really take your time to work through these if you want to build scaling apps
