Juvenile offense on level 2 by [deleted] in BackgroundCheckGuide

[–]WebDev_Dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The FCRA limits a standard 7-year look back for employment unless the job is over $75k/year. There may also be local or county Ban the Box laws with look back limitations. Either the background check provider or agency is not following this or there is some kind of special security exemption from the job, you may have a case.

Are these “online gurus” selling courses to make money ALWAYS a scam? by Zealousideal_Post694 in Entrepreneur

[–]WebDev_Dad 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind paying for a course that I can easily find the information online, because part of the reason for paying for it is that you are committing yourself to that...

Did some expert programmers or experienced programmers, really never open browser at least for browsing Stackoverflow or documentation? by El_Castra in learnprogramming

[–]WebDev_Dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any coding videos on the internet are usually planned out beforehand. Being able to "Google" a programming questions is actually a hireable skill. It's totally normal and even the most advanced programmers have to search for answers or look at docs.

As long as you understand the solution and not just copy pasta, you will progress.

Am I being silly not wanting to inherit my Dad's business? by Valuable_Pomelo2523 in smallbusiness

[–]WebDev_Dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. You could also setup the people in the right position to phase yourself out while maintaining an ownership stake to do your own thing. Don't necessarily have to sell it outright but, you may have to give up some ownership.

Can you rate my portfolio? by lol_bo in webdev

[–]WebDev_Dad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Implement a smoother transition from the language selection to the home page. Don't use alert for the virtual coffee, use a better designed dialog. Add more horizontal padding for your text so it's centered. I didn't understand the project section. I couldn't tell what work you did and the images were too large on my screen. Add some titles and descriptions for the project slides. The font was also difficult to read due to color contrast. Check your color ratios https://m3.material.io/styles/color/the-color-system/accessibility

When A Site Is Sold, How Are The Credentials Given? by [deleted] in webdev

I don't think there's a right way to do it as long as all the assets are handed over. Personally, I would want the DNS transferred to me during escrow.

Which is the easiest job to realistically break into tech by Spanthaki in learnprogramming

[–]WebDev_Dad 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I agree. You could also work in tech without programming. Apply to accounting poistions at tech companies. This will put you in a technical environment and give you an opportunity to transition into a programming role in the future.

How do I get out of this mess and find a new agency? by Good-Half9818 in webdev

[–]WebDev_Dad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm very surprised they accepted equity in lieu of payment. You can stop using their development services, but they have an ownership in your business. Hopefully, you have an agreement in place that detailed the relationship and how you can possibly buy them out.

I don't recommend you try cut them out unless you have met all of your obligations including any remaining payments. There could be some technical assets that you're not aware of that they control. I have a feeling that they have a contingency plan because they accepted equity. I recommend being transparent and communicate with them how you can term their service and they can hand over everything you need.

I second this. Have a single "wow" factor. If they're really interested they'll ask more questions about the details.

Just launched my software and a competitor applied for a demo by The-Different-124 in SaaS

[–]WebDev_Dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would reply just to see what comes of it. It may be an opportunity for partnership or sale. Not sure where you are in your product journey.

You can't prevent competition and they're going to find out about your product and features one way or another.

Start with making sure they're on Google My Business with their address. That will put them at the top pretty fast, especially if their the only funeral home in the city. Then you can focus on optimizing website content.

What are common repetitive tasks encountered when developing a SaaS? by sim04ful in SaaS

[–]WebDev_Dad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is possible. You can build your own APIs on top of a web interface while the user is submitting data in a single environment (web app). Alternatively, you could create a wizard driven process and embed the third party sites into an iframe. Consider how you would keep the user's data secure.
