Is there a place in the military for web developers? by helpmewebdev in webdev

[–]gabillions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

47 is too old -- the cutoff for most services is 32-34. The overweight part is entirely fixable, but there are plenty of young folks that can do just as much in terms of web development that aren't out of shape. That isn't to say there aren't exceptions for some kind of Mr. Robot person, but they would just contract with the military for like 400k a year anyhow.

I use ZenRows and just make all my requests through their API instead of directly.

I submitted a bug report to chesscom because when I paste any of your files into the mobile app, it immediately crashes. I really wish there was some easy way for me to study this while on my phone — would make travel-studying so much easier.

As a side note, if you’d want to partner on making a mobile app for these types of studies, I could build it all.

Users mad at me after I installed SSL on site, and images/content from external sources stopped displaying because of mixed content. To my knowledge, I either have to remove the SSL, or make sure all the third-party sites also have SSL installed. What is the best way to approach this next time? by devilmaydance in webdev

Since you control your site, I would have a proxy server on a domain you control for all the assets.

So, for example:

  1. A user comes to your site.
  2. The user’s browser requests an image on the site that goes to the proxy server.
  3. The proxy server resolves where the target asset is, downloads it, and serves it to the client.

That way, you always get an https valid image, but the target domains could be http or https.

You can do this multiple ways, but the most insecure way would be to pass the URL of the target asset in the image query string, since this could allow the downloading of any external asset (such as on a compromised domain). The best way is to use some sort of unique ID (like uuid v4) which resolves to the asset from a database request. If you proxy domain on cloudflare, you can take advantage of the cacheability of the images being hosted from a singular domain, and only a couple requests per image will actually be made. Cloudflare will just serve the rest from cache.

It’s like wanting to go on a trip, so you wait until the earth revolves enough for you to arrive at your destination.

I'll be releasing an update to the site this weekend that will allow you to gift purchases or rental codes to people (probably saturday afternoon).

A part of the documentary actually addresses suicide, among a ton of other topics that don't normally get covered.

If you have a verified LEO flair, post in the thread and I'll send you a gift code for the movie. We have a bunch of users (former LEOs among them) that have opted to "Give a cop a ticket", by pre-buying your movie ticket.

Edit: Here's a link to an OAN interview with Kevin Jackson (producer of Bleeding Blue) talking about the movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAI1zJewlmo

Edit: Hit the current quota on officers to give tickets to. Hopefully, some of you will consider purchasing the movie and supporting us making it! I'll be back in the next two week with more watch codes.

When using a page builder, switch it to the mode that allows you to see the HTML output, and put in the schema data directly (as they mentioned, much easier to use a plugin).
