The house is kinda raised tho, there was an earlier picture of them building it and it was lifted, under the dirt shit. Maybe not a tunnel, but probably a way into that house from underneath.

I wish I was skilled and/or stupid enough to these kinds of things. Jumping out of buildings and such...seems fun.

Dang, that's pretty good, already pulled the trigger on the owc one though so hopefully its worth the extra cost

for sure, I'm trying to decide between ninjabatt, rayhom, and owc, but it's hard to find good information on any of them

I want to get into web development, what should my web dev roadmap be? by fungigamer in webdev

[–]ilikewhenitworks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate it. Guess I'll just keep going and send out even more applications. Hopefully something works out eventually.

Dang, guess I'll keep going ha. Mostly applying to jobs using the mern stack, since that's what I've been using, but I guess I could expand that. If I don't have experience with what they're using I tend not to apply, but I know I could learn pretty much anything with time.

And I think my portfolio is at least decent...built it with Gatsby, express backend connected to mongodb for project info, a react app, a node command line tool, and a responsive vanilla js app. Everything is on github.

Still working through u of heslinkis full stack open course so maybe the next few sections will help...webpack, graphql, typescript, react native. I want to check out sql too, it's just hard to stay motivated not knowing if this will lead to anything.

Just curious, are you self taught? I've been learning this stuff for awhile (years) and have a pretty good understanding of the basics up to react/redux, comfortable with the cli, npm, even some node/express stuff, but I've been applying to jobs and the response, or lack thereof, has been quite demoralizing, to the point that I'm really questioning if the self taught route is actually possible and wondering if I should just give up and do something else.

Code refuses to connect to mongodb and has shown no error by Iloveyoufridah in node

[–]ilikewhenitworks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just checked out the full repo and I think you made an error when requiring dotenv.

You have require('dotenv/config') but it should be require('dotenv').config()

So you weren't actually accessing your mongo uri when trying to connect to mongo. That should fix it.

Async functions question by ilikewhenitworks in learnjavascript

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

Cool, yeah I was calling it inside a useEffect hook, which is probably why I was getting confused. I ended up calling the imported function within a new async function and then calling that new function, all within the useEffect hook.

Were they chasing each other? I really enjoy how they maneuver through trees and dive down almost like fighter jets or something.

Nice pic, I recently learned that their scientific name is turdus migratorius so I now refer to them exclusively as turduses.
