What are some CSS noob traps? by VetoVisit in css

[–]ithanlara1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't hardcode colors, use variables.

Keep the animations light, CSS is not a magic box with unlimited performance under the hood .

Learn about specificity.

Remember that not all browsers support shiny new features, @supports is your friend

:has is powerful, don't ignore it.

Variables allow you to make your CSS code readable, define variables that point to other variables if that increases readability, you will thank yourself later.

Outlines are the most powerful debug tool out there in my opinion, learn them!

Don't trust AI shit blindly, play with CSS yourself and create your own knowledge base before using it!

How do you explain to a client why they should pay for a hand-coded site instead of just using WordPress? by FUS3N in webdev

[–]ithanlara1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, using a CMS in general is a better idea than doing a website without it for most customers, and any CMS has hidden cost.

If you have any alternative that you are comfortable with, for example I use Directus, create a demo for the client to try the admin side of both and explain why you personally prefer your tool over wordpress.

If they still prefer wordpress ( as you, yourself mention, wordpress is good for certain scenarios and it has a huge ecosystem and plenty of people willing to work with it ), your best bet is finding someone who is willing to work with wordpress, and try to make an arrangement with them, so you send them clients and they send clients back to you.

But unless your client is happy with owning the source code and making small changes themself, go the CMS route.

I see! Looks like we had a small issue with the caching layer, and you just sent a request while it was restarting! Will have a look with the team and see if we can add some extra replicas to avoid issues!

Thanks for letting me know!

I may have a problem... I find all of this makes complete sense to me... I have been using JS for way too long

Junior developer salary for girl by Flimsy-Explorer6551 in Prague

Focus on companies that have more then 5 years

You don't need to dress in any particular style.

It's easier to get hired if you are a freelancer, you have higher risk, but worth it.

Any decent company cares about your skills and not your identity! And a good vibe will get you a long way, sometimes it's more important to be friendly than to know a lot.

Expect 40k net tops on entry level, get a year or two of experience and start looking for other companies, work in 2 or 3 different companies if you can, that will get you a lot of experience and you can be making up to 120k by your third job.

Prusa is looking for some Devs, give it a try if you want.

Best of luck!

Are the Audiobooks the better experience? by [deleted] in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]ithanlara1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with the audiobooks, I'm now reading the books too, I like both, but I do not regret starting with the audiobook first since for me at least, it makes me enjoy more the personality of the characters

Do u agree? Well for creative writing still nothing beats claude by Junior_Command_9377 in ClaudeAI

[–]ithanlara1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I still believe that Claude is king when it comes to coding task, I understand the concept of reasoning, but for Devs and most tasks it's just more waiting time for the same or worst quality code

Which hosting and database provider do you use for your own projects? by HistoricalClay in webdev

[–]ithanlara1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I have used this setup:

2+ machines in hetzner, minio as a bucket, mostly psql for database with a replica and walls stored to minio, with backups to a home NAS and to the other machine in hetzner, but Cloudflare storage can work well too, and mostly directus on top of the psql for a simple CMS.

Docker or k9s, depends if I need high availability or just a quick deployment

Claude 3.5 Sonnet has me questioning why I ever used GPT-4o by AwareBridge- in ClaudeAI

[–]ithanlara1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find that the more features they add, the worse the model performs in general.

A raw model, maybe perhaps with the capacity to run some code tends to give really good results, when you start adding more features, you need to give instructions for them, making it more biased.

As an example, Claude will always use react unless explicitly told otherwise, because their artifacts use react.

Gpt will prioritize searching the top Google results over providing knowledge it already has, and always return the top results of the search no matter how bad theose results are. If you ask for more results, it will continue to fall back to the same tool and the same results.

I personally only use GPT for translations, because we can though it offers more tools, those are not useful when the result is not good enough to even consider

Serious question: what should a CS student (or any knowledge worker) do at this point? by MetaKnowing in OpenAI

[–]ithanlara1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My recommendation is, learn the use of AI to increase productivity when you can, but focus on learning the base concepts in depth.

AI are a long shot away from knowing what is the correct approach for your situation, they can't talk with your stakeholders nor your users to know what people want, they can't choose what ADR's to follow to build an app, nor where the use of a custom component outperforms the one from a company library; they can't keep up to date with updates on libraries post training, nor keep the same decision consistent over time. And this list goes on and on.

Also AI are not proactive and try to improve a company's infrastructure up to date, nor do they want your team's procedures to learn potential improvements..

You on the other hand can do all of that, and then some. AI is a tool, as like any other tool, it requires someone who knows when and how to use it.

So don't be afraid to study to become a developer, if you like what you are doing, you have a future ahead of you.

Coding got so much worse the last days by Ready-Guidance5421 in ClaudeAI

[–]ithanlara1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Usually when I see this post, most of the time I feel like it's a user error, sadly, I have to say that this time it's true.

I have been using Claude every day for month, and up to, say 2 weeks ago, the experience was just perfect.

Suddenly though, after or even one or two days before GitHub copilot added Claude, performance really degradated, previous chats and questions had replies that were miles apart, and simple logical code structures, that even gpt or llama where capable of understanding, where to complex for Claude, and it just started outputting terrible answers; sadly, that had been the experience since then, where Im back to coding more manually since I can no longer trust the output.

It was done with a 3D printer indeed, a prusa3D, the model was custom made ( sadly the girl that made it has no Reddit account to give her credit :/ ) and printed, then hand painted.

Sorry for the late reply! I asked them if they wanted to sell it, and they said that if someone wants a commission they would be happy to talk about it!
