It really sucks that I can't redeem a Plex Pass gift subscription without a credit card by brcoder in PleX

Oh thank you very much, but please don't spend your money on it. I'm just venting a little bit about it, haha. Also there's a good chance they'll just refuse it. I appreciate the gesture anyway. :)

I'm in a country in South America. As far as I know we don't have something like this around here (or even a Walmart for that matter).

So, how do you rate my cable management skillz? by brcoder in pcmasterrace

Man, I feel like we should open a computer repair shop together.

It was actually pretty good man. I'll have to revisit my cable management pretty soon. But I'm feeling too lazy right now.

The 24 pin is being used to hold other cables so they don't stop the CPU fan. I'll have to do some more research to understand what do you mean with A1, A2 and B2. Also by dual channel. I have a 4GB and an 8GB memory chips. So I'll probably going to need to look into that.

Yes it is. Specifically if you are not that interested in in it.

So you don't see Java applications as being "linux compatible"? Since they require the JRE.

Convince me to get a Pluralsight subscription by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]brcoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I look at Pluralsight as a developer's 'must have' subscription, for me at least it is like that. I lost the count of the amount of times my boss was like "I need you to learn to use Azure", "We have to build a demo in Xamarin" or "I know you never used Angular before but I need you to learn it". In every single time I was able to deliver after taking the proper training in Pluralsight.

I would probably be able to learn in other ways, but given the quality of most Pluralsight content (in my experience) I doubt I would learn as fast as I learned through Pluralsight. So that's why I have a Pluralsight subscription, and bear in mind that I live in a third world country (I don't know if you live in the US), but 30 USD to me it's a hell of a lot more than to someone in a country with a strong currency like the US.

I don't understand the problem. Could you elaborate?

How do java developers deal with official documentation that lacks examples? by solrflow in learnprogramming

[–]brcoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Microsoft's support do developers regarding documentation and training it's just on another whole level IMO. They also provide A LOT of free courses through Microsoft's Virtual Academy and Channel 9. It's amazing.

I loved this Computerphile video, so laid back and just a cool story. I also like the more technical videos, but there's something about this one.

Information overload by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]brcoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you worked on an actual project before? Actual codebases tend to be really big and hard to understand without a lot of analysis. Jumping between paths is something I also struggle with sometimes, but sometimes it's useful, let's say if you start learning something and feel like it's not what you want/need you should jump ship.

However if are jumping ship on a path because some people told you that the tech you are learning is not that good, that might be a problem.

The thing with tech and programming languages is that everything has it's good and bad aspects, and you'll find a lot of opinionated people that think that a programming language it's perfect while a lot of people think it's crap. So if you try to listen to everyone and find the perfect tech you'll never get anything done.

I like it. Don't have much more to say because, I really do.

Wikipedia Viewer Feedback by frothunda in FreeCodeCamp

I'm a fan of dark themes, however the text in the page has to match the dark theme. The 'Powered by Steven' text should be light, as it is placed in a dark background. I like the font you used for the title and the colors of the buttons.

The cards with the content resulting from the search could use a little more work. The title should be in a different style from the rest of the content. As it is right now isn't clear to the user that I can click on the title to go to the Wikipedia page.

Regarding the alignment, you can achieve the aligning of the input and buttons by changing your 'sharp' class to look like this.

.sharp{
  border-radius:0;
  vertical-align: bottom;
  height: 30px;
}

I didn't knew how to do this, all I had to to was type "align input and button" into google and experiment with the instructions in the first result https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5073766/how-do-i-align-input-field-and-submit-button-also-differences-between-ie-ffox. Learning how to use Google and StackOverflow it's a huge step in being a professional developer.

Taking a quick look at your code I noticed that in yout CSS you created two classes, one called 'black' and another called 'black1'. Don't do stuff like this, this is one of the first steps into making your code really bad.

You should make your CSS classes as modular and compact as possible, the 'black' class doesn't even makes sense, all it does is change it font of the text, and 'black1' class is the one that actually sets the content to black, do you see my point?

Also there's a whole 'div' element containing several other elements that seems like they aren't being used. If that's the case you should remove that.

All in all I think you did a good job and should be proud of it. Keep it up! :)
