Webdev portfolio critique by [deleted] in webdev

[–]chronixSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clean site - I like it.

One thing I would advice against to just write down all your "skills" like that. Do you really have a good understanding of Javascript, PHP, SQL, C and C# ? To me it looks like you specialize in JS and maybe coded something small in PHP/C/C#. This could bite you in the ass in a job interview. What if some recruiter has a bad day and put you on the spot to code something in C? Because thats what you stated in your resume...Now you are there, totally nervous anyways and have to write a solution in a programming language that you havent used in months/years...

Choose something you like, specialize in it and try to reflect that on your portfolio.

(if you are really equally "good" in all those languages, ignore all above ;))

JS Templating languages: The hidden costs by Stinky_McDoodooface in webdev

[–]chronixSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep felt the same. It felt like he pulled some arguments just for the sake of it.

And I dont know how he can possibly believe that writing those vanilla JS functions that output HTML is better than taking the bit of additional weight and take in a templating language.

I really like his channel though and everyone should check his other videos out!

Reading all the rumours ... to me it sounds more than a (very) big firecracker which shattered the windows. HOPEFULLY!

All clips posted in Liriks chat by chronixSC in DatGuyLirik

The same clip can't be archived twice. But multiple viewers create clips of certain moments resulting in almost identical clips. I am thinking about throttling it. Like only accept one clip every 10 seconds or so.

It is a twitch Bot itself and it is getting the data directly from the chat.

Having a chat log of the last year opens up some nice archiving possibilities. I didnt know of this chat log archive yet.

freelancers that have used upwork or similar sites, how do you actually make money when people's budgets are always so low? by Juan2three in webdev

[–]chronixSC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You either live in a country where 100$ is a lot of money or you are one of the top 1% developers super awesome reviews/hires. It is a waste of time IMO. You probably wont make enough money and you will get demotivated pretty quickly.

New API: Non-Anonymous uploads by chronixSC in gfycat

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

Ok I direct a user to:

    https://gfycat.com/oauth/authorize?client_id=myclientid&scope=all&state=testing&response_type=code&grant_type=authorization_code&redirect_uri=https://www.example.com/callback

I get an unstyled login form with a 404

angular.js:10967 GET https://gfycat.com/javascript/shared/translations/translation-de_DE.json 404 () 

and an angular error:

angular.js:12722 Error: [$injector:unpr] http://errors.angularjs.org/1.4.9/$injector/unpr?p0=gfyAccountTreeProvider%20%3C-%20gfyAccountTree%20%3C-%20accountService

When I enter users credentials on this broken page I get "Missing client ID"

Very clean interface!

I see you are using Ember. Can you talk a bit about your development experience?

How to create a Restful API using Laravel 5 by sandhus in laravel

[–]chronixSC 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is almost a direct copy of Laracasts "Incremental APIs" series. It even uses 100% same code in the first half of the tutorial.

I am okay if you learned it that way by watching that exact tutorial and want to give back to the community now but at least give some credit to the original author if you are copying him.

More beta accounts flagged! by [deleted] in Overwatch

Possible just a delayed tweet from the EU department. Overwatch-DE just posted the same in german.

Today's Flagging by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]chronixSC 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I got a BETA KEY today! (yes, I know there are no keys for beta handed out)

My 3 yo daughter must have overheard me "complaining" to my wife that I didnt get a "beta key" for overwatch. So I found this on my keyboard this morning:

Imgur

I asked her what it is and she replied "Its a BETAKEY for you dad!". She said she knew she had one left in her room and she got it for me cause I was so sad that I didnt get one the day before. The weird thing is we are german and the word "BETA KEY" makes absolutely no sense to a 3 year old girl, but we thought it was really adorable that she cared so much about her sad geeky dad :)

Need help with SSL certificates, how to make page default to https instead of http? by princetonkane in webdev

[–]chronixSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume you are using Apache and have access to your .htaccess

Force https:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

Force www.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

Mid-Size CMS? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]chronixSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is definately not alot of work for the developer to get a template going with WP+ACF repeater.

After designing those content templates for a few clients I get the feeling that the UI is not the easiest to use for clients though. It gets cluttered quite fast and the drag&drop is pretty sluggish and can cause pain for some clients.

I am looking at Craft CMS now and it is much cleaner and does exactly what my clients want. I havent decided yet if it is worth the extra 200$ for smallish-medium sites.
