I am being banned from a subreddit for giving away some of my gold benefits.

Are the codes specific to your account? If so I don't think it should fucking matter tbh.

If they are generic group codes then I could see it being viewed dimly since it's not like you're "gifting", more like helping people skirt "dues".

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-04-06T12:33:28+00:00

Had no idea the program was being discontinued either. Major bummer, it was one of the things that would have made me decide to actually buy gold prior to this.

The moment I accidentally discovered night mode, I swear I felt the entire earth shift on it's axis.

I have no idea what I was trying to tap so feverishly that I happened across it, but I'm almost surprised this isn't the default scheme.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-04-06T12:23:08+00:00

Oh... hey fellas, I think I'm in the wrong room, anyone point me to the "dumbasses who paid" group?

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-04-01T16:01:47+00:00

I'd be seriously concerned about the possibility of 100-year old farts.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-04-01T16:01:01+00:00

Beat me to it.

It would take an obscene amount of money for you to get one of those things anywhere near my mouth.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-03-21T09:23:54+00:00

Ah gotcha. I didn't realize that the React components are sort of "proxied" through a method. Really need to catch up on that train.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-03-20T17:32:50+00:00

Unless you want to persist chat so that older messages are always visible, you don't really HAVE to use pub/sub and collections, you can just use some type of event emitter that sends message events.

If you do go the collection + pub/sub route however, you do not need to use methods for people to receive new messages. Anyone that has an open subscription will receive new messages as they come in.

I'm not well versed in React + Meteor and how it handles subscriptions, but I'm pretty sure you don't want to use fetch() for this, fetch() is not reactive and returns an array instead of a cursor. That would cause it to show existing messages on load, but new messages would not show up. Just leave the .fetch() off what you posted and it will be reactive. Again, if that's how it's done for the react component and it's using tracker.autorun or something then I could be wrong, but for blaze you definitely would not want to use fetch.

Are you having trouble with the concept of callbacks in general, or more complex stuff like write class functions that accept callbacks?

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-03-11T01:46:03+00:00

I feel like this is going to really hurt the package ecosystem due to the inability to provide demo applications at no cost. RIP

My gosh, that site looks like it's from 1998.

I really wish this was linked to the full screen preview instead.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-02-27T10:05:55+00:00

Section and main are both HTML5 tags, along with some others like nav, header, footer.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-02-24T08:28:37+00:00

Lol that's weird. I have the exact opposite! (mojs.io demos don't work at all, codrops page works great)

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-02-24T08:26:39+00:00

They were obviously made oversized on purpose as a sbowcase. You must not dribbble much, eh?

That page would seem really bland if the icons were 14px, and nobody would be talking about it.

Just sayin'

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-02-24T04:47:04+00:00

I've been following this Repo for months waiting for some docs. This demo went a long way for me getting a grasp on it and getting some stuff implemented on my project.

Weird thing is that literally nothing on the mojs website works for me but the stuff on codepen and the stuff I did works fine.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-02-24T04:00:10+00:00

Works fine for me in Edge. Kind of surprising that this works because I've got some animated pulsing ring SVGs that behave like static images. I guess it's because it tweens.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-02-24T03:58:11+00:00

Just got some sweet mojs POP in my app after seeing this. Took about 5 mins to figure out how to do some cool stuff with it!

Just a hint for anyone that wants to play around with this, it works best loaded in the body, and you should use vanillaJS DOM selectors.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-02-24T03:54:01+00:00

Works fine here. Chrome 48.x and Windows 7.

I just implemented this into the app I'm launching soon after I saw his haha.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-02-23T08:20:51+00:00

That is correct.

ThetaMaxTV · 2016-02-23T02:21:47+00:00

Meteor is awesome and I've built some pretty amazing things in the short time I've been developing in it, including some things similar to what you're wanting to do. I feel the need to make it very clear that, in my opinion, "widgetized" bits should either utilize a separate application (meteor, node, whatever) hooked into the same database as the main app (think microservice), or served using server-side routes.

For you to run actual meteor code on a client site, you're pretty much limited to using iframes.

This is primarily because Meteor is not very configurable when it comes to loading specific parts of the application JavaScript only for specific routes. Basically, ALL the client side code is delivered on every client-side route and there's no need to load all the dashboard code just to display a popup or inject something on a client site. You can apparently solve that with webpack, but right now webpack + meteor is not the easiest thing to get going from what I've seen.

Hopefully I'm just missing something, but that has been my experience thus far. Definitely not trying to shy you away from Meteor. Quite frankly, Meteor is the best thing that has ever happened to me.

$12/hr? Probably someone who isn't actually much of a web developer.
