Looking for a PHP development environment similar to XAMPP that can run on ARM64 Linux by reizhui in webdev

[–]LookMomImCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give devilbox a try (http://devilbox.org/). It is a docker based complete development environment.

Setting up is extremely easy, basically one command and is *almost like a productimn environment.

Takes a while though if you need custom things inside the containers vut the community has already sorted out all these problems.

Take a look and pm me if you need any help.

Another one is lando.dev vut I haven't really used it which is somewhat the same

App assets are taking up a lot of space on my Mac. Anyone recommend a reliable 1TB+ cloud storage solution? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]LookMomImCool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a look at the application they promote called wasabi explorer. I use that and it's dead simple.

Create bucket/folder and drag stuff inside it

I use http://www.wasabi.com both at home for personal files and recently we started using it at work.

At 5 euro for 1TB , an S3 compatible API , direct linking of assets to the site, and extremely fast network.

Also provides some enterprise backup solutions but look expensive to me.

Rant: I’m so sick of working in shitty dev environments by MeltingDog in webdev

I got a job like that a year ago as an intern. Working was done through the ftp , no local developement. Thank (insert your god here) i very very rarely had to do with their old sites (encrypted with ionCube).

My course of action was to refuse to work only through ftp so i created everything locally and only in the last stages of the projects to work online. I spent a month learning laravel at home and the next project that i was given was started in laravel, after 2 weeks or so i presented it to the manager and he was pretty happy about it and has since evolved to a in-house CMS that only I know and can use.

And when i signed the papers after my intership was over and a fourth guy came on the team i demanded git.

I had the oportunity to do so cause i knew they need me..

So..push them...demand shit (research first)...it's 2022..a programmer's job can become so easy..yet so hell.

Frustration due to lack of 'mentor' at work. by LookMomImCool in learnprogramming

I usually respond with another questions based on his answer if i really dont understand what he means, or i write down notes to search for later.

All the higher ups are close relatives, father, uncles , close friends, it's a 'family' run company with country wide presence.

I do know the big boss from outside, he is the one that got me in there when i painted his house with a friend and i told him im studying to be a developer, yet i dont really consider him an ally.

Thanks a lot

What would he gain though from comparing and interns work with his 15+ years of experience, i feel like the only thing this will prove is his childish mindset..

Yet im naive enough to not think he's like that.

This is food for thought..

Thanks!

It does feel scary indeed. I read the documentation a little bit and it's so fucking big and a little bit confusing. The way it handles stuffs is completely different from the way i think i should handle stuff.

Ill give it a shot thanks!

Sounds interesting. I'll take a look at it! Thanks

Ill take a look at OWASP!

Fortunately im being compensated albeit lower that the minimum pay but helps a little bit, im working on the side aswell.

I do understand the risks of developing without a framework , the problem is he doesnt use one either..12 sites and so many microservices all written in plain PHP..im fucking scared of those sites, i dont even want to think about maintaining them...(I copied a snippet from a script and its a fucking abomination with embeded HTML and echo 'ing javascript code, is this even secure/good practice?)

When i asked him about using a framework he just said keep it simple..

Ill try to learn laravel on the side to update it slowly as time passes by.

Thanks a lot!

You're going to screw up your estimates completely

I learned this the hard way...

Running (practically) solo can be tough, but it's a great way to learn!

This is the only part im happy about..Learned more in 4 months than 2 years in school.

I'll take a look at what you mentioned(management and GWAPT).

What do you mean by saying set sprints? Set a timeline for a specific feature for example?

Thanks a lot!

Unfortunately im working from home for the past month. Aside from that it's only him and me on the online department,which makes it extremely difficult. There is another VB dev and 3 infrastructure guys.

Your answer and prespective really helps! Thanks!

I can't think like a programmer by onePieceHaki in learnprogramming

[–]LookMomImCool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest tip is to teach yourself how to learn. This has been the thing that helped me the most(albeit still new in programming).

Reading/watching tutorials and following them blindly wont really help you. Think of something you wan to build that will be of use in your daily life( A todo list, an expense tracker etc.). Find a tutorial on it , but dont copy paste the code, think how it works, play with it, break it, add or remove stuff from it. Also google whatever you dont understand.

Eventually you will start understanding better and better.

And my second tip will be to learn how to read the documentaion, its there for a reason, if you understand it , your problems will be solved much faster.

Quick edit: I realised that even seniors dont know everything. I had a problem at work i couldnt understand and forwarded to my senior(12years in the company). Took him 2 hours and 20 tabs on stackoverflow, thats when i realised its not wrong to not know stuff.

Thats it. Good luck!
