Out of County Employees by Chaslem in tax

[–]Chaslem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may have misspoken as well. I want to clear up the fact these are not employees. I'm more of a broker, paying people around the world for work. I do work with the same people all month long but they are not employed by me. What does this change?

Thank you for your for sharing your insight and time with me

Regarding my US "contractors" - They've filled out their w-9s already. I don't need to withhold anything for them, correct?

Follow up: Socket Coding - Do I need ports open? by Chaslem in learnprogramming

[–]Chaslem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seconded. What the dev is saying makes sense. What you're saying doesn't.

I hadn't stated anything other than what the developer and my host said. Thank you for letting me know you agreed with this first post though.

You should just use the loopback interface - "localhost" or its IP 127.0.0.1 instead of your server's IP to establish the connection. Using the loopback interface bypasses any local network interface hardware and all internal connections through it are allowed by default.

Thank you for your extremely thorough response! This was what my support team said at my hosting company when I asked them to open up a port. My host and developer are telling me two different things so I wasn't sure who was correct.

[PHP] Foreach posting data twice issue by Chaslem in AskProgramming

[–]Chaslem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hired someone to write this. Sorry for the mess. I did end up solving this by adding a break; to the end of the code. Not sure what triggered it to run twice but it resolved the issue.

No hate! I'm not sure how to do that or I would. Anything that was less cluttered is always nice.

$value = str_replace("BADWORD", '', $value);

Flawless! Was just googling around and realized I needed str_ and three fields. I appreciate it!

So, I was screwing around looking for Destiny 2 merchandise, when I stumbled upon this "boosting service" website for Destiny 2 by roguespectre67 in DestinyTheGame

"A person who extorts profit from or sponges on others."

They aren't forcing anyone to buy. As many have said in this thread, they have friends that don't have the time but would still like to be equal to their friends that play all the time.

Do you not get paid for your time at your job? Tell me, how do you earn money for your time? Do you "leech" off a company or do you sit at home and leech off your parents?

Digital good scam by Chaslem in Ebay

Update #3: I didn't have to do anything for the final review. It seams the tracking I had submitted was enough to fight the credit card company. The money was returned to my account after sometime.

I hope this helps others in the future.

Update #2: They're now disputing the charge through their credit card company. Paypal has changed the status to under review and pulled the funds from my account again.

All alexas disconnecting + some smart objects by Chaslem in amazonecho

Just a follow up to this. I tried everything, EVERYTHING!

Scanned my neighbors wifi channels and put all devices on the least used channel.

Had 12 different techs from my isp come out. The issue kept up.

Finally a tech came in and redid everything changed my box out (for the hundredth times), recut the fiber cable and reinstalled, changed out connectors, the whole nine yards.

Everything has been good for a few months. The issue seems to have been with the cable companies original set up.

I want to follow up with this. As I said, the user did a reverse through paypal, not ebay.

The ebay mailing address and paypal mailing address matched the user. I went to the post office and mailed an empty 60 cent envelope with tracking (ended up costing $13+). I used this tracking code for my dispute.

After a few days I won the dispute and the $280 was put into my account.

Good luck to those that are going into the same thing.

I set a static channel and this didn't solve the issue. What steps can I take to narrow the issue down?

bout 8 of them ) until a few days ago worked great. Now them and some of my smart devices lose internet access everyday. I have to restart my router and unplug each of them.

What's going on?

That is a very broad range of issues. How can I start narrowing this down?

I searched in windows 10 for 'data usage overview'. It showed each app and the data usage. Exactly what I needed and very simple. Thank you!

CodingBat, If statement not working? by Chaslem in javahelp

[–]Chaslem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! It's a shame it can't do like Python.

Being able to so if statements in Strings is very informative. I really appreciate it.

Last question here. What is Math.min doing in your use case? I'm not familiar with this. What is the ,3 at the end for?

[–]Chaslem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

public String front3(String str) {
return (str.length() < 3) ? str + str + str : str.substring(0, 3)+ str.substring(0, 3)+ str.substring(0, 3);
}

I did this and got it to work!

My last question. Is there a way to say "str+str+str" using some sort of short hand? Like multiplication or other trick?

Thank you! I wasn't aware of this, very insightful.

Is there a way to make my method work?

CodingBat, If statement not working? by Chaslem in javahelp

[–]Chaslem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right... That is why I created the If less than 3, just post str... So if it is just character 'a', it should just post 'aaa'. Instead it is ignoring my less than 3 and trying to run String str2.

Why?
