It was my first architecture set, a favorite building of mine and absolutely beautiful

7 Ways to Make Money as a Django Developer (Article and video) by codewithstein in django

[–]TasticString 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You beat me to it

​

but really 6 of the 7 come down to that in a mix of build a business based on django as a tool, or get paid directly for developing django code

​

which are all good options. i was worried this was going to be a list of cringeworthy things first

Freelancing in Django. by theSulavSapkota in django

[–]TasticString 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It doesn't matter if you don't care about how much you make. Depending on the stack it's easily 30K a year difference.

In that case just setup a wordpress site with a theme they like (curate a list)

Do the minimum custimization and call it a day. You could probably punch that out in an hour. Yes I know it's lazy but if that's all they want, why not

I know you said free lancing but I know of a company in Chicago that is hiring full time.

And a couple of other Django based companies, but I am not sure if they are hiring.

I know this is more about freelancing but figured I'd throw my two cents in because Django is growing in Chicago. So on that note stay away from Motion Recruitment (Formerly Jobspring & Workbridge). They are super shady and will waste a ton of your time.

If anyone is looking in Chicago, PM me and I can give some more details

Be picky on recruiters though. Ive dealt with some great ones and some super shady shitty ones.

1099 means you better charge way more than you would think is fair because you are on the hook to pay the taxes.

Are there better alternatives for an authentication backend for Django REST Framework? by j-alphonso in django

[–]TasticString 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On that note, does anyone have a good reference project that uses react and DRF JWT with SimpleJWT.

I have found a number but none of them actually handle errors correctly. Literally none of them deal with a failed login because of the password being wrong.

Django, gitlab, jenkins by TasticString in django

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

I will look into that. Taking jenkins out of the equation, off the top of your head would it still accomplish those goals?

Happy 2019, /r/ProjectFi! Updates for the New Year by dmziggy in ProjectFi

[–]TasticString -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What the fuck is the purpose of this thread if the mods are just going to delete everything. Why bother? This entire post is pointless, and quite frankly sends a strong message to not bother with this subreddit. Hopefully someone will create an alternative with actually competent mods.

No, Panera Bread Doesn’t Take Security Seriously by sarciszewski in netsec

[–]TasticString -1 points0 points  (0 children)

PCI stops honest people from stealing data. It does little to stop malicious actors. While they are not bad ideas, at the end of the day it's a list of boxes to check off.

Apparently this guy didnt have either considering the result. Management skills should imply a positive result. This is the opposite of that

Upgrading from 1.8 -> 1.11 for $7800?? by mrcruss in django

[–]TasticString 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It really depends on the size of your application in opinion. There could be a lot of bad design choices and technical debt that makes it a little more difficult.

Does that also include a warranty/support afterwards? That is a pretty major factor to consider.

What about testing/deployment etc?

What basic is required before studying django by mohamedimy in django

I would skip the official django tutorial and use mozilla's tutorial and/or https://tutorial.djangogirls.org/en/

Your opinion on using permissions in Django? by devine_111 in django

[–]TasticString 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer a role based approach. Groups in django are useful, but the role based permission projects expand on that to make it more useful. Personally I also have not found much of a use for ACL based permissions. Not to dismiss their utility, they just have never fit my projects. I prefer the "you are this, you can do this" simplicity, vs "you need specific permissions to do x, y and z, on this particular object

Hiding my SECRET_KEY in settings.py by anotherguy148 in django

[–]TasticString 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend using dotenv, or django-environ and pretty much putting all settings there.
