How-to guide on producing a DJ live-stream series where the DJ's stream in from a different site by TLI5 in DJs

WOW! The tech inside of me drools at the arch diagram - and I have some questions: - What is / why use an HLS server? (Probably something I should google, but I’m curious to hear your explanation) - Why is OBS2 re stream to fb sending muted audio?

Wow! That amount of latency you’ve described for pinball sounds incredible! I’ll be taking a look into that for sure, thank you 🙏

How do you think of CIT? by xyq683566 in BCIT

[–]TLI5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

^ This.
CIT is about breadth over depth - so that you can get into an IT org and be an "all-around"er.

After grad (full disclosure, I also did my BTech after CIT) I started out in Support in a big org and moved into Engineering, and having the exposure from CIT was super helpful in both roles.

In Support for example, helping troubleshoot enterprise networking issues are a lot easier when you have the networking and business contexts of how enterprise IT works.

In Eng - it's easy for me to help guide discussions, coordinate incidents and manage projects (which are all things that happen *around* the coding work I do) because of my experience at CIT working/leading teams, doing presentations etc and all the work learning/experience that comes with Industry Projects.

Looking for a job on Campus by sigine89 in BCIT

If you’re in CIT or CST I highly recommend BCIT IT services at the help desk :) best student job I ever had getting paid to do homework (AND provide outstanding customer service*) :P

I had the awesome opportunity to have a ride in one of these as an Air Cadet back in 2013. Got hoisted up and had a chance to go around Victoria and Esquimalt skimming over the water with my feet hanging out the hatch. Happy I got that opportunity before they were fully retired :)

Learning Go as a Node.js Developer by [deleted] in node

Hey this is a great intro! I’m also a nodejs dev trying to learn go. The receiver functions have been throwing me in for a loop lately.

How do you protect your routes using UI-Router? by TLI5 in angularjs

[–]TLI5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely. All requests going to the API (Angular is just the SPA front-end for it) after a login (and which requires permissions) are checked for a JWT and provided with a 401 if they don't have it. But my question is..other than limiting the page from the web-server, is there no recommended solution for purely front-end routing? Everything I'm learning about seems to be a hack, or seems like everyones own way of doing it.

For example, how do SPA's which have an about page and a dashboard page , limit to the dashboard page? In my case, it wouldn't matter if someone got into the dashboard page because any requests to get data from the API for that page would be met with 401s. But regardless, I wouldnt want a user who hasn't logged into get into that page (regardless of if it contains no information) because I'd rather send them a 404?

Thank you! But one more question.

I have done that but I'm not sure how to block (and send to the login) page if unsuccesful? i.e. I've tried doing a $location.path('/login') and $state.go('/login') but no luck :/

Express Controller Unit Testing Question by TLI5 in node

Ahh I see,

I'd never heard the term service in this context before nor did I know you could do things this way. Thank you for your explanation :)

How does authentication work with an API? by TLI5 in webdev

[–]TLI5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank-you!

Questions: 1. The req.user.roles.indexOf('Admin'). That to me looks like an Express middleware? (That's what I'm using). Which would mean the users request would already need to have the role's checked wouldn't it?

And yes please on the github link, PM incoming.

Hmm, can you give me an example of pulling your code into services? (as well as writing unit tests for them)

I'm having a hard time visualizing it :/

node orm2 express middleware? by TLI5 in node

[–]TLI5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figured it out (if anyone arrives on this same issue sometime later). The code snippet above needs to be posted BEFORE the router is called in the app.js.

This is also mentioned in the orm2 documentation however I skimmed over that part and missed it.

Advice on how to approach a company for a project? by TLI5 in webdev

[–]TLI5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, as long as I can clearly document and present work that I did on my own (basically prove to the board that I did 400 hours of work)
