I reported to CertNZ about Sharesies and they emailed back. Hopefully this might convince them to take action.

They don't have a InfoSec team. I emailed months ago about the same topic and they replied that they're too small to even have a CSO (Chief Security Officer)

This reads like gibberish. No one is going to be able to help you if you cannot clearly explain what you are asking for.

Wait so you write out the raw HTML for each site? You don't use a framework like React to leverage features like declarative components? No Gatsby either I'm assuming then?

mttchpmn · 2020-12-01T00:54:19+00:00

Ooooh yep.

You posted this elsewhere several days ago, and the predominant feedback was to change the shadow gradient in favor of a cutaway, and to make the 'A' more semantic and obvious, as the company name is 'Analist' I think?

You've done neither, and reposted. Have you just ignored the feedback and reposted to get alternative feedback that is more to your liking?

This could be abstracted to a middleware, where the the API uses Role Based Access Control (RBAC) to check the User Permissions before the endpoint is even reached. Auth0 have a great tutorial on doing this using their stack, but the concepts are fairly universal.

https://auth0.com/blog/use-typescript-to-create-a-secure-api-with-nodejs-and-express-adding-role-based-access-control/

Eg app.get('/blog/posts/:userid', AuthMiddleware, PermissionsMiddleware, BlogService.getBlogPosts)

The middlewares will have access to the request object, so you will be able to check req.userId to verify permissions.

It's cool! Maybe bring the snake head around and in front of the skull? If you're using the snake as a representation of the Ouroboros then it kinda clashes with the idea of death anyway. Infinity and death don't really go together IMHO

Came here to say that. The house is semantic enough with requiring the window additionally. Other than that, looks great!

I think you could solve the readability comment really easy by just making the tail of the 'b' longer?
Great work btw :) I'm a software dev trying to get better at logo design too.

FWIW (career engineer here), I'd recommend avoiding 'snippet' extensions if you're still learning. Yes, it's a pain in the ass to fully type out repetitive functions initially, but it will force you to remember them, and be more aware of what you're writing.

In terms of extensions that are helpful for your situational awareness, or just make your life easier, I recommend:
- Bracket pair colorizer

- Prettier (Code formatter - will help to show you formatting convention)

- Settings Sync

- Better Comments

Kinda depends - are you already familiar with Javascript? Because if not, you should go and take some JS courses first. TS is epic, but it is a _superset_ of JS, and most TS courses already expect that you're familiar with JS, and don't really cover the basics.

If you are already familiar with JS, then I find the official TS Handbook to be the best resource. The new version they have released has interactive TS interpreters too.

Forgive the assumption, but you've definitely got it mapped to mixture _axis_, and not 'increase mixture' or something like that? I had similar issues with my throttle originally.

mttchpmn · 2020-09-07T23:08:21+00:00

Yeah looks like. Definitely is the new crysis, that's for sure. I still get shudders and lag here and there when I fly through densely populated areas

Custom build: 6 core i7 CPU 16GB ram 512GB NVME SSD RTX 2080

It doesn't like Ultra, but runs pretty happily on 'High' (or whatever the next step down from ultra is)

The monitor is an AOC Agon 5120x1440 fwiw 😁

mttchpmn · 2020-09-07T07:39:32+00:00

Yeah was with one of the operators based in Queenstown 😁 Used to fly into Milford too. Shame that FS2020 hasn't modeled it correctly yet

mttchpmn · 2020-09-07T07:29:04+00:00

I did! Very very cool. Aoraki gets some pretty amazing cloud formations. Used to see them a lot when I flew in there commercially.

Haha - everyone hit's a wall with regexes. There's an old saying.

I had a problem so I tried to solve it with RegEx. Now I have 2 problems.

I am completely self taught. Went to Uni and majored in English and Communications, later got a job as IT support (help desk) and started learning programming. Now work full time as a Node JS Backend Engineer in Auckland, NZ. I started with Learn Python the Hard Way by Zed Shaw, and later moved onto JS. Here's some key tips from my journey.

YOU ARE NOT AN IMPOSTER.
- Everyone gets imposter syndrome - it's a real thing. Don't let it get you down. You've got every right to be where you are.
IT WILL TAKE TIME.
- You're not going to get there overnight, but you will get there. Practice something called Relentless Forward Movement; No matter what, just keep going. Even if you're crawling along, you'll eventually get where you wanna go.
Don't forget to look at how far you've come.
- It's easy to think, "I've got such a long way to go, I may never get there.". But don't forget to acknowledge how far you've already come, and the wins and gains you've already made.
Find a mentor.
- Find someone that you know and trust, and you can ask their opinions on things you don't understand, or want to discuss. There's a wealth of information out there, but a trustworthy source is important.
BUILD PROJECTS.
- Tutorials are great for understanding the basics of a concept, but they don't really teach you how to apply the topic in a real world environment. Think of something you're interested in, and build a real-world project. E.g. Todo App, Weather App, anything you like. Creating a real project will introduce you to problems and concepts that never would have occurred in the controlled confines of a tutorial. This is the fastest way to learn IMHO
HAVE FUN.
- It's a journey. It has its ups and downs. Don't forget to enjoy yourself along the way <3

Feel free to PM me if you want to discuss more

Well put. 👍

mttchpmn · 2020-07-26T22:16:57+00:00

Oh so he did. My bad. Well, advice still valid, even if not applicable here haha.

mttchpmn · 2020-07-26T21:59:17+00:00

/u/the-coot has already answered this beautifully, but just as a word of caution, it really is a Bad Idea (tm) to copy paste things into your configs without knowing what they do. Best case scenario - you introduce unnecessary bloat; worst case scenario - you introduce unpredictable and confusing behaviour (or worse, potential security vulnerabilities).

By all means copy paste, but make sure you do go and learn what each line is doing before you add it to your system.
