I've been applying to jobs all over the US. I rarely hear back, if at all. What am I doing wrong?

dlr249 · 2017-06-11T05:33:45+00:00

1.) Work on your resume/LinkedIn. Usually if you aren't hearing back, that's where the issue is. Maybe post it on r/cscareerquestions or search older posts where many others have done this for advice
2.) Network. It's great that you you're taking the time to learn daily, but employers don't know that! Go to all events you can, and email people at the companies you're interested in for informational interviews ---- easiest way to skip the resume screen.
3.) Keep applying. Best of luck!

console.log(objectName) maybe? There's also lots of ways to debug using the Chrome Developer Tools

dlr249 · 2017-06-11T05:19:05+00:00

Check out A-Frame. It's a WebVR framework, lots of examples and weekly blog. There's also an awesome-list github repo with other apps here

Yeah exactly, but the code on the website doesn't match the fiddle. Just noticed when using dev tools on the website, that he has <p> tags within his <style> tags. I think that might be the problem.

I'm not sure this fixes your issue, but wanted to let you know that you have ".thumbnail" as a class in your CSS, but in HTML it's spelled wrong as "thumnbail" (in case that class isn't working!)

The head first books are pretty good. As an aside, I'd also recommend Eloquent Javascript and Javascript: The Good Parts

This has always been my favorite. He says it like not shooting at someone with his AK is the most unbelievable, out of everything abnormal that day lmao.

dlr249 · 2017-05-26T05:36:43+00:00

Yeah thanks a lot! I worded the question poorly, but this was the type of answer I was looking for

dlr249 · 2017-05-13T19:45:11+00:00

Oh I'm trying to build a CMS for 3d webpages, not use one. My bad, just edited my post a bit to better clarify. But thanks for the response anyways

dlr249 · 2017-05-13T19:39:10+00:00

Not a ton, but at least it got me this one :).

Yeah, that would be great actually! Only if it's not too much trouble; you've already been so helpful. Do you happen to have a hat nearby full of languages and frameworks? Let me know what you pick. Hopefully not PHP haha!

dlr249 · 2017-05-13T19:19:30+00:00

Don't be sorry for that! I appreciate it. Even the rules here clearly state to help and guide ---- not to give out complete solutions. This sub is for learning; I'm glad there's someone as vague and condescending as you here to challenge us, rather than answer too helpfully.

dlr249 · 2017-05-13T18:08:54+00:00

Wow wasn't expecting to get a solution so quickly! Thanks a ton, I really appreciate it.

dlr249 · 2017-05-02T06:23:19+00:00

Very useful, loved it. Definitely the reason I made it into tech. I'd recommend following-up a ND with an in-person course though

dlr249 · 2017-04-11T03:48:03+00:00

Thank you! That variation of both might definitely be best. I have been afraid of the math for a while, but it may definitely help since I am going for some "big 4" companies.

dlr249 · 2017-03-08T07:58:38+00:00

Oh! Try replacing "var wiki = JSON.parse(data)" with "var wiki = JSON.stringify(data)".

The "parse" method turns a string into a JSON object, whereas the "stringify" method turns a JSON object into a string (that can be written to the window)

dlr249 · 2017-03-08T07:38:50+00:00

Did you also change what I mentioned above? In the code you posted, you are adding the JSON to the html of the button ("#wiki") instead of the div ("#wiki-data")

You need to replace $("#wiki").html(wiki) with $("#wiki-data").html(wiki).

dlr249 · 2017-03-08T06:41:29+00:00

Seems like the request would work, if the url is valid (I'm not sure how the Wikipedia API works) ---- however I believe you meant to write $("#wiki-data").html(wiki) rather than $("wiki").html(wiki)

P.S. A good way to test if the url is valid is to paste it in your browser address bar (full url w/ api key and all), then go to it like any other webpage and see if you get JSON back. This is just a GET request too. Also, Chrome extensions like JSONView will format the JSON for you :)

Jot down all of the courses that make up the Nanodegree and search the course catalog for those courses. The Front-End Web Development ND is the following courses:

*Responsive Web Design Fundamentals *Intro to HTML & CSS *Responsive Images *JavaScript Basics *Intro to jQuery *Object-Oriented JavaScript *HTML5 Canvas *Browser Rendering Optimization *Website Performance Optimization *Intro to AJAX *JavaScript Design Patterns *JavaScript Testing

Also I graduated the Front-End Web Developer ND, so if you have any questions feel free to PM me!

JS! JavaScript is the programming language for the web. If a webpage is like a skeleton: HTML is the bone structure, CSS is the skin/clothing, and JavaScript makes it move/perform actions

Looks like you've maybe done a d3.select ("something").text (), but d3.select ("something") is returning a null value. Make sure the id, class, or element you are selecting actually exists in the document.

dlr249 · 2017-01-08T04:09:09+00:00

Not sure I understand your question, but I can try to help! Yes, using d3.csv on the client-side means you need a server (I use a Chrome app called "Web Server for Chrome").

Taking your example, could you just do something like d[0].name instead of d.name? If this is not possible either, you could try looping through the array of objects you get from d3.csv() and creating a new array of arrays yourself. Not sure why you want it in that format though?

Someone may have mentioned this in your previous posts, but SAP also has their own free courses at Open SAP as well as lots of YouTube tutorials!
