What's the best way to ban all Dimitri's, gooks, pajeets and obongo's from your website?
I'm thinking of range banning Asia and Africa. But I'm not sure what road to take.
>>54031160
Why would you do that?
>>54031170
I'm running a content driven website. They dont make me money, yet they are a security and copyright risk. So it's the logical thing to do.
>>54031200
Because they don't run comment bots from the US or Europe? They place were most $5 VPS datacenters are located?
>>54031160
The back-end dev team at my work banned all of asia. Seemed to work for them.
I'm also sick and tired of coming to /wdg/ and seeing you fucks joke about being in a paid internship and how fucking, "comfy," it is.
I get paid 12 an hour, work 40 hour work weeks AND I can't even pay rent/student loans without mommys help.
What's more is that I learned that the company I'm working for is no longer honoring the, "Intern for us at least one semester out of school and you have a job," code it used to and after 2 months, unless I find something else, I will be unemployed.
I know Ruby really well, JS, HTML/CSS, bootstrap and jQ okay and I barely know enough node to use gulp.
Should I learn Rails to prevent myself from committing sudoku or should I instead just focus on JS, jQ HTML/CSS and hope that no one grills me on AJAX shit?
>>54031217
I highly doubt they look for targets through a proxy. So it should deter most of them.
>>54031224

>>54031274
>the le arcanine maymay
How the fuck can I freelance if I barely know enough to land me a Jr. entry-level Front-End/UI/UX position at a company that is only hiring me because I don't reek of curry?
To be fair I know a bit of Rails but isn't it a meem? All the Rails positions I've applied to told me nicely that I don't even have enough experience to get not enough experience.
>>54031330
Where do you live that entry-level rails jobs demand experience?
>>54031330
when I started freelancing I had installing a PHPBB3 forum when I was 14 and install Ubuntu / debian without the hand holder installer on my belt. When you see the shit they ask you to do you'll wonder how retarded they must be to not be able to do it themselves.I earned 700$ as the no programming language knowing little faggot I was then (17 year old)
>>54031469
Well, people simply dont have the time to do it themselves. Especially if the business is filled with overpaid professionals who make hundreds an hour.
Plus most people can barely handle installing office.
>>54031523

There's no such thing as an entry level Rails job you fuck that's my point.
>>54031469
I'm a fat socially inept neckbeard without a facething or instasomething. I have maybe 2 friends after graduating college.
I would be horrendous at marketing myself without a proper background and portfolio.
My github currently has a repository for a site I half-copied form some code tutorial. It uses jQuery and bootstrap to let the user rate doggos and press a button that says, "sleep tight, pupper"
I'm literally a walking maymay.
>>54031665
When I started freelancing I marketed myself with the default description generator from fucking odesk, your only problem is your obvious horribly low self-confidence, you shoot down any idea or possibility that you might pull something off out of fear of failure / subconscious fear of making someone mad by succeeding (im not shitting you looking it up) just give it a try. If pajeet can get 20$/hour so can you.
>>54031665
>There's no such thing as an entry level Rails job you fuck that's my point.
I don't think it's possible to put those words together in a sentence like that.
Rails is an entry-level framework. It's impossible that there are no entry-level jobs. I accidentally applied to one and I didn't even have Rails on my resume, and I still got an interview and a trial day... Before taking a better-paying node job instead.
honestly y'all newbie niggas in these threads need to stop fretting about what technologies you are choosing to learn. just make stuff.
>>54032356
also when y'all read job postings don't worry so much about meeting specific requirements or every single requirement. think of the qualifications/requirements as the company's "wish list", because that's what it is. no one checks all the boxes.
This is Rails-specific question because I'm kind of stuck.
I have a Project which has many Reports and many ReportTypes. Each and every Report must belong to a ReportType. I want to be able to add or modify ReportTypes when submitting a Report. I obviously tried accepts_nested_attributes_for :report_type on Report but when I send POST /projects/43/reports with{
"report": {
"additional_notes": "shit went wrong",
"report_type_attributes": {
"name": "I have no idea what I am doing"
}
}
}
it blows up with
"report_type.project": [
"can't be blank"
]
How do I solve this?
>>54031799
>Rails is an entry-level framework.
Literally what.
>>54031717

There are plenty of startups around me that use ruby/rails in/as their main stack.
They want a minimum of 2 years and want 4. they really want you to be a buddy they roomed with in college or served with in the army and after taking on this internship, im learning more and more that startup culture is a codeword for pure (and rarely blind) nepotism.
>>54032392
if I can check all the boxes does that mean im overqualified?
How is this el "constructed"? What is the jQuery...?
I'm looking at some code and I want to know how I could recreate this structure.
Just wondering to see where I'm/should be at.
How long did it take for you to learn:
>Node

>>54032839
>im learning more and more that startup culture is a codeword for pure (and rarely blind) nepotism.
what? compared to corporate culture? lol.
honestly from your comments you sound like you make a lot of excuses and don't have much confidence in yourself. you also have at least one of those frog pictures saved on your computer, which alone speaks volumes. just keep coding and applying and something will work out for you.
also where do you live? where i live there are rails job listings specifically looking for junior devs. it's no coincidence that a lot of these bootcamps teach rails (perhaps that is changing recently though).
>>54032392
if people are good enough, we hire them even if they don't know the languages/tools we use, we just pay them the first few weeks to learn them. it is worth it.
>>54033735
How do you know they are good enough if they dont know anything
>>54032976var jQuery = {fn: {jQuery: {init: []}}};
>>54033165
It took me one or two hours to learn the basics of angular and node, and by that I mean knowing it enough to build something functional and slightly complex (i wasn't writing my own angular directives by this point). I had experience with javascript and MVC before I tried them, though.
I've been using both for about a year now and I'm still learning new things from time to time.
I've never really used express except to route things, so I can't really say that I know it (unless that's literally all it does).
>>54034170
Yeah of course, thanks.
How would that return a DOM element though? Kind of stuck here.
The el is actually this.el and when I console log the this.el it returns [div.wm-space].
>>54034130
If you know computer science principals and can think like a programmer then picking up languages and tools isn't a big deal.
For example in an interview could you explain the difference between composition and inheritance?
>>54033735
Question. If someone comes to you on the back of glowing recommendations from his former employer and has a great portfolio with examples of his work, do you still ask him the standard interview questions?
Just got canned AMA
Last question, what is this "context"?
It's exactly the same as the 0: div
>>54035196
Not that guy but what do you mean by 'standard interview questions'? Shit like 'what's an object?', 'which one of these two algorithms is more efficient and way?' or what?
I'd ask them anyway. You'd be surprised by how much can be done without proper CS knowledge. It won't be efficient or easy to maintain, but It Gets The Job Done™
>>54035696

>>54031224
>I barely know enough node to use gulp.
It's just Javascript, really not hard at all. Keep at it with the internship and Rails/Javascript. Learn how AJAX works, it's really not complicated at all. You should be able to get interviews for junior positions after your internship. But be sure to start applying now while you're working for the internship.
You can do it Pajeet!

Freelancing is extremely hard to break into.
About 60% of the time contact is broken once they realize I'm a freelancer and not a company they can sue if something goes wrong.
I have ~2.5 years of webdev experience working on various personal and FOSS projects.
How can I find part-time employment over the summer? I really want to put these skills to use, and I'd rather not get a shitty job at McDonalds or whatever.
I'm trying to do a count down that is triggered when you click a button but what happends instead is that each time you click the number goes down by one, what can I do to make the count down function runs completely when the button is clicked?var count = 10;
var counter = setInterval(timer, 1000);
$(".button-start").click(function() {
count += -1;
if (count <= 0) {
clearInterval(counter);
return "Done";
}
document.getElementById("timer").innerHTML = count + " s";
})
If I do it outside the .click it works fine but I want to make it run when you click it.
guys please help I am stuck in this for days
I have a chart from chartjs and I want to put a background image without css so it can be part of the canvas. The problem is that the chart has a repeat and whenever I change data on the chart the image gets refreshed. I tried to put bigger repeat timer with clearInterval and it kinda works on Chrome but its still flickering in Firefox. Is there a way to fix this without creating a second canvas? Here is fiddle test http://jsfiddle.net/sj1k78rb/

Have you tried talking to your rubber duck?
there just has to be a simpler way to create a rest api than just plain old express.
what do?
>>54030945
i disagree with "express or nothing". koa v2 looks very, very promising (with async/await. koa v1 with generators is just weird). it will take some time for it to be stable, though. express is a good foundation but in a year or two we will most likely all use koa v2.
>>54037088
REST is so simple everything supports it. Or you can write it yourself.
Be honest, /g/, is PHP really that bad? Newbie coder here and it's the only language that I know well.
About to start a web project, just for fun, because I miss coding. Nothing fancy.
Can I stick to PHP with a framework (I'd like to learn one - Laravel, CakePHP, Zend, Symfony or Slim?) or should I learn a new language (Which one? Which framework?)
"Nothing is meme. Everything is permitted."
I came up with this all by myself. I think it should be used as an answer for the people when they ask which technology they should use.
I might be a genius.
>>54030416
I am a webdev and I hate web developing
>>54037807
I'm too new to understand why PHP has such a bad reputation though.
>>54037055
Yeah, it didn't work though, I get the feeling that is actually a really easy fix but I can't figure it out
>>54037594
Do whatever lang you want to. Web dev isn't really about languages, but about principles and how everything is structured, also after you learn a language and try to pick a new one up, you start seeing parallels between the two, making it really easy to pick up new langs. Depending on the size of your project, I would do Lumen/Laravel or RoR.
Deploying on DO soon, should I be using CloudFlare?
I know almost nothing about DNS in a web server context.

I'm going through CodeSchool's "Shaping up with Angular.js" right now. It feels kinda like Codecademy, but I think I have learned some things. Does anybody have any experience with it? How much knowledge is actually contained in there? How much more I would have to learn, because I have no idea about the size of this library. It still looks quite messy, I have to say.

>I'm going through CodeSchool's "Shaping up with Angular.js" right now.
100% of the Angular tutorials are absolutely shit. You can't learn good Angular online. Some things that the tutorials do wrong:
- assigning variables to scope ($scope.num = 4 etc.) - the moment your site gets complex this will cause problems
- using outdated stuff like ngRouter and the ngController directive
- Not creating an isolated scope for a directive nad using scope instead of attrs
- Not teaching proper modularization
>Does anybody have any experience with it?
I have been programming in Angular for the last year and I can say that I'm pretty experienced in it
>How much knowledge is actually contained in there? How much more I would have to learn

I still don't know about those subjects so I can't say anything. Btw I was asking does anybody have experience with that site I was learning from (Codeschool). I already went through the first half today, it won't take me long to finish, but I'm wondering how good actually is it.
Is storing user login through localstorage a bad idea for phones?
I don't want people to edit it and pretend to be someone else.
Maybe I can salt it heavily PHP side return the shit back to AJAX and store that, then just validate with a php script and...that's how awesome I am. Can't even ask a question without solving it before I ask the question.

>>54042334
Can you give examples of something I can't do with PHP and jQuery?
I'm trying to do AJAX login with php.
I can't use sessions, so would localStorage tokens be good?
It would be their salted username andded to their salted last_login timestamp returned to AJAX and stored in localstorage. Any requests to DB would split it in 2, send it to PHP to validate username and login timestamp, either success would be returned or an error would.
Would that work ok?
Decently secure?

>>54042748
English, motherfucker.
>>54042652
Why can't you use sessions? It's way more secure than cookies because they're local, meaning an attacker could modify them.
>>54042909
It's an app in Cordova. I read sessions are broken with it, so I'm just making my own token system.
The local salted timestamp has to match the server-stored timestamp or it throws an error anyways. Doesn't really matter if they attack it. I can throw an additional md5 in the local string and it's almost impossible at that point. Match that with intrusion prevention limiting 20 connections per minute and the universe would implode before anyone cracked it.
>>54043073
>making my own token system
Look at ones that already exist. If you're trying to do it all on your own then props for trying, but you'll leave yourself open to vulnerabilities.
>>54044430
I don't see how. It's pretty straight forward.
What does a session do other than store and compare the token?
>>54044803
Yeah, I bet everyone that made something that got hacked/exploited thought it was pretty straight forward too.
>>54045520
Do you not know how key cryptography works? You should study that shit so you don't sound so retarded in the future. The only vulnerability is hijacking which sessions are vulnerable to as well.

Hey, I want to add a vertical divider to a navbar I'm working on, except I want the vertical divider to be a different color between every li!
I'm using sass and I was wondering if there is a sexy way to do this, something like extending classes or smth, or concatenating stuff.
I'm just starting with sass, I tried extending classes but clearly I am doing it wrong. Anybody here with experience with this?

What the fuck is the Document Object Model (DOM)? I've heard about it for years, tried reading the wiki page, but still don't understand. Can someone explain in simple terms? Maybe if they can some examples of another model, I don't know
>>54050772
I think about it like the skeleton of a page.
>>54050772
This is how I learned. They lay it out like an elementary school lesson.
https://css-tricks.com/dom/
>>54050969
I still don't understand what it is. This link here says that it's an API? https://www.w3.org/TR/WD-DOM/introduction.html
So where can I read the source code for the DOM? What's it written in? What are some competing models?
How do I know if what I'm doing is DOM?
I've been programming for years and have written my own back-end framework yet can't grasp this lmfao
>>54051033
It's not really important. If you can manipulate an element through javascript or add an event listener then you are already using the DOM.
It's not that important. It's just a name for the code parsed from the file the server send and before the client is rendered. Thats it.
>>54051033
look that tree representation of that portion of html code. I think is the best way to understand it. It converts the html/xml text into some kind of object you can manipulate/interact.
For a competing "thing" check out xpath.
>>54051011
Thanks, that helped a bit
>>54051129
I never thought it was important so I've neglected to really try and grasp a solid understanding of it. Now I feel stupid
>>54051167
Isn't xpath just part of XML?
Who came up with DOM?
>>54051033
It's simply a standard for the data model in a browser.
It was standardized so that competing browsers interact with and access the different SGML descendants, like XML and HTML, the same way.
If you want to look at specific implementations you have to look at the different browsers layout engines like Webkit, Gecko or Servo.

I know it's pretty bare but I just want my website to be the bare minimum. Haven't uploaded any photos or proper descriptions yet, but does this look functional enough?
Again, not trying to make anything flashy (admittedly because I don't have the skills to make anything good, but it doesn't seem necessary anyway).
Side question: what do I put as the href url for the home link? Tried leaving it blank but that just links to whatever page you're already on. Atm it's just "index.html" as you can see yourself.

Actually, while the anon at >>54052026 expressed it rudely (though not that rudely by /g/'s standards), he's right: what you are using isn't a "CSS framework". You will benefit from learning what a CSS framework does.

They want an <iframe> that makes the same request to their ad server, but WITHOUT using Javascript.
How the fuck am I meant to get the variables into the URL without JS? Is it a trick question? Am I missing something stupidly obvious? Fuck my life.

>>54053573
PHP out of the question?
>>54042652
whenever i do this sort of thing, I get their userid from the user table in the database, then store it as a session variable.
on each page, check and make sure that the session variable is active. you can pass that into sql queries on different pages to get different info about the user. If the session variable isn't set, that means that the person isn't logged in, so redirect them to the login.
i'm not sure how secure that is because I only ever used it for school projects/hackathon stuff
>>54053750
I hope you're joking.
>>54053988
Elaborate
i'm working on this site that lets me and my roommates bet on what we think the rotten tomatoes score will be for certain movies.
why the fuck aren't these images showing? when I inspect them and go to the src that they link to, it displays the image,but not on the webpage..
>>54053842
That renders the ad perfectly but I've tried an iframe with a similar source and I just get the delivered javascript text in a window.
>>54053921
I would assume so
>>54054025
what does the network tab say?
>>54042652
>I'm trying to do AJAX login with php.
Is it really worth all that trouble for AJAX logins?
There are many cases where using AJAX for form submissions is great, typically when you expect a user to make many requests during a session, so it's more productive and efficient to not have the page reload after each request.
But with a login form you only expect it to happen once in awhile for each user, the user logs in and it's done. Seems like a waste of effort for something which result in any significant benefit, not to mention the security risks.
>>54053926
I can't use sessions. They break Cordova.
The only option I see is to make my own token system and use the apps localstorage for one keypair.
I'm going to leave them logged in unless they hit 'logout' anyways.
It should work great unless they get MIM'd, but then again I could just encrypt their key with their unique app ID as a salt.
Im going to work and this shit today opensource.
>>54054071
look up jwt/oauth
>>54053842
I guess my question is, why does an actual <iframe> tag using this source not render correctly?
>>54054117
because the target is javascript, and an iframe wants text/html.
>>54054132
I knew it was something that simple.
Thanks very kindly anon.
>>54053573
what are you trying to do?
why no javascript?
do you have any server side language?
check your ad hosters documentation and implement it in your server side language then.
maybe you can just ask them if they have some small libraries already to do exactly that.
otherwise I have no idea what you're trying to accomplish.
>>54054069
> security risks
Do tell. It's the same as a form submission but I'm getting returned values from the php page.
>>54054156
It's a code challenge for a job I'm applying for. I am really confused about what they want as well because this seems very poorly phrased to me:
>Below is some JavaScript code that renders a Criteo ad. Please create a simplified iFrame tag, without using JavaScript, which makes a similar request to our ad server. Please also explain what process you used to arrive at your answer.
The script tag using an appropriate URL produces an iframe with their banner using the delivered Javascript function from their server. But the question seems to want a custom iframe tag that does the same thing and I'm not completely sure how to implement that since<iframe src="Javascript: 'url' "></iframe>
does not render the received code.
Alright ya'll, got my final interview with AT&T Monday. Wish me luck please.
>>54054288
iframes don't render. javascript like this.
just run the ad normally and then grab the iframe element they create in their javascript.
>Put resume up on Indeed yesterday because I'm starting a job hunt
>Mention I'm a fullstack rails developer
>Recruiters have sent me 4 emails already
...Has webdev always been this easy to get work in? Should I have been trying sooner?
>>54054333
Generally recruiters just look for buzzwords (like fullstack in this case) and experience (which is generally discussed when you call them). So yeah, getting them to email you is pretty easy.
Getting through the interviews with the actual devs may be a little more challenging.
Also, try Dice. It's more geared towards dev work.
>>54054329
Is that really all they want? Maybe I've been overthinking it.
>>54054333

Damn, was about to say that. Good catch.
Alright motherfuckers, I need some suggestions.
I have a side project idea that's basically a web app and I'm undecided on which frontend framework to roll with.
I've used Angular 1 in the past and it was... alright but that was some time ago.
I've had a look a look at Aurelia and it seems nice. I've had a brief look at React with Redux but it seems too barebones for my current needs.
Thoughts?
>>54055418
turn your web app into a weeb app
>>54055438
I'd rather commit Sudoku
>>54055418
vanilla js faggot
>>54055418
Angular 1/2, React with Redux, Vue with vue-router, Ember, Mithril...
You are going full-frontend I suppose.
>>54055418
Ember
>>54055452
But muh productivity m8
>>54055470
Vue looks nice, I'll do some reading on it.
>>54055494
>>54055470
After some reading it would appear that Ember is more of a "batteries included" framework that might suit my needs right now.
Thanks for the suggestions m80s
If I've made a POST request in curl and I get 200 OK, that means it succeeded right?
What laptop do you use?
>>54055711
it should, but doesn't have to.
201/204 would be better.
but it could have thrown an exception and the developer just returns 200 anyway, so you really never know..
Took over a project. I have the master folder which has all the pages, angular stuff, Css, js files, etc. And then I have a mongodb-data folder with a few JSON files. How do I get this up and running on my computer?
>>54056280
Forgot to mention when I run the index file I get a blank screen
>>54055711
Pretty much what (>>54056182) said.
That's why some APIs return some kind of 'success' field (true/false) on their response, to indicate if your request to _the API_ was a success, and not your request to _the server_ of the API.
>>54055711
I'm guessing you are using nginx? If so, yes thats fine.
How do you pronounce gunicorn? I say G Unicorn but I'm afraid I will look like a fool if I ever say that out loud.

Assuming you don't go over the limits agreed in the contract with the web host (like bandwidth use, for example) then I don't see why it would cost much to keep it up and running. You'll probably want to use a CDN service for protection and fault tolerance, SSL, and some other things but it would probably still be pretty cheap to maintain I assume.

who /webmaster/ here?
I was having an issue with nameservers that I am not sure how to resolve.
essentially the browser would display the server's ip address rather than the domain name whenever content other than the index was loaded
e.g

If the latter, maybe it's a problem with the way they configured their webserver
How do I know if I'm employable?
I've been doing webdev for years now, dropped out of college and have done some freelancing through acquaintances. But how do I go about finding a real job?

I would greatly appreciate it someone could help me out and walk me through the getting a job process. I'm honestly considering suicide because my life has been at a standstill for so long.

Quick life lesson. No one is ever going to take you by the hand and show you how to do shit unless a) you pay them b) they want to fuck you.
The thing I like about this field is that you have to learn it by yourself. A degree will do fuckall besides open that first door. This is the field where you can do good because you are good and not because you paid 10s of thousands of dollars to hello world for years and then learn turing was gay.

How do you find out how much it would cost to host a website vs how much ad traffic would be required to host it? Also, what do you think of AWS? The content on the website is a Twitter app and it's volatile and will only be on the server for an hour
>>54062346
Your ad revenue depends on a lot of factors. It could be anything from 0,5 dollars per 1000 to 25 dollars per 1000.
How much your server costs also depends on a lot of factors. But traffic usually is cheaper than ad revenue.
I use a host with unlimited traffic. So as long as the CPU and RAM can carry my site i'm good. So I don't have to worry about that shit.
>>54063621
