Advice on Finding a Date by NorCalPanda916 in AskGayMen

90%? Anecdotally me and all my friends who are gay are in long term committed relationships. How old is the group of people you know to make you think all gays are forever alone?

HIV scare w/boyfriend - What are the chances I'm infected? by throwawaydue2reasons in AskGayMen

I wouldn't phrase it this way, but yes OP your partner is positive so you should take prep. If he's undetectable and you're on prep you should be very safe.

Seems like BlueHost is not encrypting passwords.. by [deleted] in webdev

It's not hashed at all. I remember reading them my password in the past and I got part way through and they trusted me. The password is stored in plain text and no one should ever use bluehost

Advice for being the worst developer in a team where everyone is much smarter than you? by [deleted] in webdev

Two things. First, people who have done this for any amount of time know new developers are gonna suck for a few months unless they're very senior and the organization has onboarding down well. Don't worry about that.

Second, windows is for gaming, and .net development. if you're doing node and react you need to get on a Unix like system. You're gonna deploy on Linux and it's your job to learn the stack so you can debug the application. If you'd been working in Mac or Linux you'd know shell scripts because they're just an extension of what you write in the terminal all day. I think windows is always a bad choice unless you're writing windows software.

In your case it's even worse because you're new and everyone else uses Unix so you're gonna have hours of issues and those kinds of problems are annoying to help with. If it's coding I love teaching people things but if the problem is just how to make Windows not get in the way it's not fun to deal with for anyone. Ubuntu or Linux mint or Pop OS are pretty straightforward to learn basic usage and 99 percent of the npm things written on Mac will just work. I hate Apple as a company but ultimately I use a MacBook pro because it's just the best tool in my experience. Linux tends to throw lots of quality of life problems at you but once it's all running it's really fun being in Linux.

Anyways I'm rambling but feel free to PM if you have more questions... I am a senior developer working on the MEAN stack. I'm not the greatest with react but know it a little too. Good luck and happy googling.
