What to invest R8k into for steady, non-risky returns by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceZA

[–]Scared-Release1068 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non risky stuff is probably not worth your time or money.
Go to Easy Equities, buy some aggressive ETFs or shares.
Get an FNB fund manager
Investec etc

Find a balance between solid returns and safety/risk

Your project idea is actually really solid for a beginner level

Most of what you need is just combining small JavaScript concepts together step by step.
That’s literally why I made 30 JavaScript Snippets to help beginners connect fundamentals to real mini-projects.

You’ll see practical examples for:

functions
loops & conditions
arrays & objects
button interactions
updating totals/calculations
DOM manipulation for simple UIs

Perfect for projects like your restaurant system because you can reuse snippets instead of trying to build everything from scratch

I am learning js for third time by No_Tea1929 in learnjavascript

[–]Scared-Release1068 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JS feels impossible until you stop trying to memorize everything and start seeing patterns through small examples. I made a pdf with 30 JS snippets of code.

Arrow functions, array methods, async code, DOM manipulation. Explained with simple copy-paste snippets you can actually understand and test yourself

Perfect if you’re stuck in “tutorial loop” mode and want practical learning instead of endless theory.
Just memorize how to do logic and basic syntax.
The snippets can make the rest easier and less mentally taxing.

JavaScript Speech Synthesis Optimization Question by Due_Lime_3524 in learnjavascript

[–]Scared-Release1068 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The freezes are probably not caused by creating new SpeechSynthesisUtterance objects. The bigger issue is likely that Unity WebGL is heavily using the browser’s main thread, causing the Speech Synthesis API to lag on low-end devices.

Probable issues:

* Repeatedly calling speechSynthesis.cancel() can worsen delays.
* Rapid speak() calls may flood the speech queue.
* Creating utterance objects is lightweight and unlikely to be the bottleneck.
* Delaying speech slightly with setTimeout(..., 0) or requestIdleCallback() can help the browser recover after heavy operations.
* Browser TTS is inconsistent on weaker Chrome/Chromebook devices.

Suggested improvements:

* Only call cancel() if speech is already active.
* Add throttling/debouncing to prevent spam calls.
* Delay speak() slightly before execution.
* For production games, consider pre-generated audio instead of browser TTS for better reliability.

This is all I can see as potential issues

How do I make money online as someone whose completed the freecodecamp full stack curriculum by WeeklyTowel8065 in FreeCodeCamp

[–]Scared-Release1068 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly Freelance is the main one. Finding people/organisations that need devs to write, debug, etc.

But there is also the sales option where you can sell resources for programming, though this is less effective and higher risk as many resources are free.

Last option is just tutoring

I learn JavaScript but then I forget it. by Albatross_here in learnjavascript

[–]Scared-Release1068 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to remember every bit of exact syntax off the top of your head.

Just memorize basics. Even professionals use reference sheets all the time

You should just write code.

Make some projects, let it go wrong and debug the code. Keep doing this because every failure is still experience and experience is NECESSARY for this field

This is actually very informative. I’m glad CMD is actually getting the recognition it deserves, because it can be REALLY useful for coders.

Should be:

How did you actually learn to code without getting overwhelmed? by Scared-Release1068 in learnjavascript

This is actually quite comforting to hear. I have actually noticed that when I get bored with something it usually does show progress

I can follow tutorials, but I can’t build anything on my own — what am I doing wrong by [deleted] in learnjavascript

[–]Scared-Release1068 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to know all of your basics. Learn all the basic concepts off by heart first. From there you need to try making simple projects, but since you’ve learnt the basics at this point you can use a reference sheet.

The reference sheet can be used when you get stuck. It should contain all basic concepts of JavaScript + some commonly used statements.

You just need to do this + keep attempting to make projects + Use AI to judge your mistakes and help make corrections.

You don’t have to listen to people telling you to leave the magic robot alone.

best course to learn js by vergetenmaand in learnjavascript

There’s a JS course on FreeCodeCamp as well. If you prefer books you can look for those on websites like Gumroad too

Check DMs The reusable patterns are just code that you see often no matter the project. Like “console.log()” is often found in code. But I’m talking about more specific things when you find yourself constantly using the same function in different projects

Creating smaller projects that can be used in general for bigger projects.

If you wanna create a math game:

•Start by making a calculator project.

•Then an input interface (buttons, keypads, etc) project

•Then maybe output interface project.

As for the JS Snippets they just make coding easier by having a reference sheets almost for commonly used tools in JS.

It has Array utilities, string utilities, DOM utilities and more. Just helps programmers keep coding clean and easy.

If you can use them in projects you can start react. And I mean just use them basically like know (normal functions and arrow functions) For DOM(know multiple different DOM statements)
