This is how my db is set up:

>two user type tables with a foreign key to user_info table
>two types of businesses with a foreign key to business_info table

My issue is, how do I manage one (or more) business manager? Should I use the primary key from user_info or one of the two user type tables?

Using react redux combineReducers kills my app. The view doesn't reflect the state even if given an IntialState. However, using devtools I see that the state changes the way it is supposed to do? What's going wrong?

How do we get rid of the ESL web dev poster problem on /g/?

Not that I am aware of, just seeking other people's thoughts.

Why is that better than angular for MEAN stack?

his personal preference. try all three of them yourself or pick one at random. reading a bunch of contradictory opinions won't help you in making the choice
also typescript+react+mobx+styled-components is currently the best spa combo

explain this

>>62068926

I did and minored in information systems. Wish I had reversed the two and majored in IS instead. I would still not recommend it because of the massive debt. I was an armyfag so I don't have to worry about student loans.

>>62068926
Universities offer web dev course?

>>62069492
Clever. What don't you get?

>>62067936
I inherited a React+Redux codebase, found Redux to be absolute cancer.

It would have been neat in a language with algebraic types like Haskell (TypeScript doesn't cut it, unfortunately) or one with actor model concurrency like Erlang, but the way it is it's too much boilerplate for too little gain.

>>62068926
Not even really an option, but no.

>>62069675
It helps me get a grasp of fun languages, tho. It feels like little sandbox in JS that let's you do some stuff you aren't actually cut for manipulating some views in an app.

>>62069645
the second recursion particularly, but not too sure about how the whole algo works

>>62069920
By, "Second recursion", you mean the second time it goes through the function? I'll explain it as such.

Notice that when it calls the program, it uses

hanoi(3, 'Src', 'Aux', 'Dst');

In that order.

Then when it reaches the first point of recursion, it calls in a different order

hanoi(disc - 1, aux, src, dst);

Notice how the order changes between src, aux, and dst. Does that help?

I found my mistake. I introduced combineReducers to my app which, I guess, changed the state tree of my app. However, I didn't consider this in my stateToProps function. This is why I referenced a wrong object and returned undefined to my view. Have tits fellow niggeneers

>>62068926
I did, and when I got hired I asked my boss if they would have hired me w/o a degree. The answer was a clear yes. And then I proceeded to work next to someone who had a degree in english and had just finished a code bootcamp

>>62069990
So, if i understood correctly, the second call with 'aux' as second argument moves the disc from aux to dst, unlike the first call which moves disc from src to dst.

>>62068926

Experience is king in web development. I learnt nothing from my time at university and it did fuck all in getting me a job.

If you want formalized, structured learning it can be good if you pick the right course that will teach you the coding you'll need and good practices but it's expensive. Also, degree courses teach you all the answers that employers love putting on coding tests (a self taught PHP developer probably will never experience things like tree structures and the various search types)

If you can learn a comfortable level of coding yourself, get a portfolio of coding examples you can show off and contribute to some projects that'll look very good on a CV and put you ahead of someone with just a degree and no proof he can actually code.

>>62070227
Yes, and now that I look at it, I see it calls itself twice in the same function. So double recursion, never seen that pattern before. So it mixes them up once and calls itself, then mixes itself up again and calls itself

Ok real talk; How viable is it to make a living on remote work / free lance? I've social anxiety and I'm not sure if I can function in a team with irl interactions and meetings.

>>62066945
What's wrong with underscore?

>>62071455
Not anon, but Lodash in objectively better and backbone is old man garbage

Anyone using webpack and react? Is it possible to do imports like: import Button from 'Button' no matter where the component is in components directory? I would want to use unique names and just use them to import.

>>62071430
pretty sure with freelance work you need even better social skills since you have to market yourself and go out to find new customers on your own (at least in the beginning)

I am in a similar situation.
Looking at job offers it's all those places trying to be hip and advertising with regular events and partys. I just want to code something and possibly get paid...

>>62071535
I am using webpack with Vue.
Not 100% sure I understand you, but yeah of course you can require/import from any directory.

>>62071430
I was the same as you. As a adult you will have to find a way to not be socially anxious. Understand where the problem comes from. You cannot function independently without having to interact with others regularly. Also if you are doing freelance shit then there will be a lot of video / phone calls. It is unavoidable.

>>62071602
I mean i want to Import a Button, but using a component name and without a path.

So it works when I move the component. Like for example React Native got providesModule.

>>62071535
import Button from './path/to/button'

>>62071430
>social anxiety
>trying to succeed in freelance
Might as well kill yourself right now.

Fully remote contract gigs on sweatshop rentacoder sites don't pay enough to scratch out a meager living in anywhere other than india or china. In order to succeed in freelance in the US you have to build a local client base, meaning sales and account management (real human interaction). It's a huge part of the job.

>>62071719
Yeah, but I would want it without the path.

>>62071651
>>62071739

there is resolve.modules where you can specify which directory webpack should check.
So you can specify your component directory in there and webpack will check it, when you import 'button' in your code.
That what you mean?

https://webpack.js.org/configuration/resolve/#resolve-modules

>>62071749
But it won't scan the folder recursively? If the component is in subfolder it won't work?

>>62071773
You have to override the default behavior ya dunce. There's not an out-of-the-box solution for this, but it's very doable and pretty straightforward to implement. Go do the legwork from this point and figure it out.

>>62071773
no, the loader needs a path to a specific file.
imo it wouldn't be a good idea anyway to import something in such a vague way

>>62071833
It's not really vague. In native we got unique components names and it worked.
You don't have to think where the hell is that component located or change 50 paths when its moved.

But it seems it's impossible in webpack.

>>62071430
Just find normal work remotely. I'm in the same situation. Only have to deal with the boss and some coworkers. But it's only over net. Don't need to deal with clients or other crap. You don't need to talk about anything beyond the tasks with them.

>>62071876
Of course it's possible, you're just retarded.

How do I get my first client? Local businesses? Online freelance work? How do I approach clients?

I'm sorry if this gets asked often but I was always terrible with business, I'm honestly clueless when it comes to actually selling my services/work.

Hey guys, I made my first javascript add-on. It makes youtube livestream comments into speech. Pretty great as background entertainment if you find a good stream.

>>62072546
Make them display over the video like in NicoNico and I'll download it

I've been using flask for a while
Recently I wanted to try websocket stuff
But the way I got into it is node.js
Should I migrate flask to node.js
Or migrate the websocket project to a flask websocket project

I'm OK with either, is either of them difinitely better?

Do webdevs actually like JS? After all, you're still compiling to and using it.

>>62073007
JS is much less shit than it used to be. ES2017 is pretty decent.

>>62073007
I didn't use to like it, now I do. Probably just got used to its apparent shittinnes.

>>62073032
less shit is extremely relative

For those who made it

Was it worth it?

>>62073226
There's no "making it" in web dev

>>62073259
Employed

>>62073226
Yeah. Saving a ton of money. Tons of flexibility. Gonna move to Europe and work from there for a year. Upper middle-class income. Work on pretty much whatever I want whenever I want.

>>62072447
I'm glad 4chan is also so helpful.
>>62072382
I actually went to r/software and scoped out people who needed specific apps made. But I've since accepted a job somewhere so haven't had time to do side work. Should get back into it though.

>>62073059
What do you feel about devops? We're steadily heading in that direction at my shop.

>>62073059
Freedom to create any app you want, that can easily be opened by anyone with access to a browser.
Are you talking about converting PSD to WordPress templates or wtf.
If all you do is reuse other people's code I feel bad for you.
Get some creativity going.

>>62073226
Oh yes. I started at $47k for my first job and now at $80k with fairly minimal expenses, so knocking back a good bit of money. Job is pretty low-stress, also.

Is there a <textarea> like element that has default functionality to bold and underline, etc. kind of markdown/controls like ctrl+b?

>>62073658

Damn good job anon. I'm still waiting to hear back from HR about moving from a 57 to 87k job in a different department. Hope to be there before the end of the year
