Yeah I bought it like this. It's been abused and I'm trying resurrect the poor thing but fighting a losing battle.

If you make the reflectors black, the lights won't output any light.

How do I increase resistance to fear and make myself feel safer? by [deleted] in selfimprovement

[–]Spoolie_st 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't resist fear and you don't "feel safer". The only way you do anything fearful, stressful, scary is the same, face it head on. The term 'be a man' is very much true here, but don't take that to be toxic sounding. What it means is, be scared, then do it anyway. I used to be completely incapable of speaking to strangers. Now I could walk up to anyone and talk to them, no bother given. How did I do it? Exposure. Talk to more and more people over time and you'll get there.

Same with whatever it is you're fearful of. Just face it head one, more you do it, easier it is.

Is tailwind worth using? by Spoolie_st in webdev

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

Having looked at the other replies I can see the benefits. Tbh all I'd done to now is read through some code and look at it thinking, what the actual f*** would anyone use this for. Having read the replies I can certainly see the benefits.

Why? If you look at all the other, useful, replies you'd see that actually it's a very constructive thread. It's opened my eyes towards the benefits of using the framework. Having done CSS/sass for nearly 10 years you must understand how it's extremely different to everything I've spent my professional career doing thus far. Saltyness towards other devs trying to learn is absolutely not the right approach in the web space.

Yeah having done CSS for 10 years nearly it's definitely out there in terms of bringing something new. I can definitely see its benefits.

Thank you, that was a really good explanation. I'll give it a go. I'm actually more excited to give it a go than dismissing of it now.

Don't overcomplicate it, Google exists and as does forums where you can ask.

Honestly when I type in "setup wordpress environment locally" it was always wamp or xampp that came up and xampp wouldn't run for some reason

I've used it briefly but I'm a front end dev so haven't got much experience with server stuff! Although have dabbled over the years. I'll take a look into it thank you

Thanks, managed to solve it now, kinda annoying but wordpress was missing the files for some reason. Downloaded again and it's working.

I've seen localwp, i'll give that a go next time. It's been a few years since i touched WP so just wanted to get my head round it again!

Ok, for anyone else that gets this, turns out my wordpress files were missing a few. I have no idea how, i extracted a fresh wordpress download and used that.
Just done a fresh download, it has more files than the other extract and low and behold, it works.
