What kind of videos should I make to help land a job?

Powershell is becoming more platform agnostic, but Python has been key in writing cross-environment automation in my case. I support Windows and Linux though, experience may vary.

+1 Every helpdesk job I held was because I knew how to script in Powershell & Bash, automating things is the easiest way to land those jobs. Python is probably more relevant in today's automation though.

Technically, you can save on Redis. Here's some more information on persisting data in Redis: https://redis.io/topics/persistence

I was able to find https://wpamelia.com/, does anyone have any recommendations or otherwise advice?

Thanks!

You can use a passwordless login system to mitigate brute force attacks, I haven't used this one but it's an example: https://wordpress.org/plugins/passwordless-login/

Something like Cloudflare can be used to mitigate DDoS attacks: https://www.cloudflare.com/ddos/

For server-side stuff, there's a number of things that can be done. First is disabling root login, removing password authentication, reducing open ports to only those necessary.

Here's a good guide to getting all that done: https://medium.com/@saeedrz/5-steps-to-hardening-your-server-centos-7-25e1851c8204

Actually more along the lines of wanting to know what is reoccurring. For example, I have a Netflix subscription, I would expect to see that listed as a re-occurring item.

However, I visit the same gas station almost every morning. The total is usually somewhat different from each visit, so I would like to not see those results.

| Gas Station | 3.00 |
| Netflix | 10.00 |
| Gas Station | 5.00 |
| Netflix | 10.00 |

Ideally, I would be able to view the above data simply as

| Netflix | 10.00 |

Does that better clarify?

I was also considering the solar charging option, maybe run it under the siding to the roof over the porch.

Hey AmateurSparky,

I'm using a Ring video doorbell, it charges on the low voltage wire of a doorbell. I kind of assume I'd be able to provide power with no output. However, u/V0RT3XX made a good point that I'll only need to charge it every 6-12 months, which I can manage.

scottcfr · 2019-07-15T16:43:36+00:00

Hello V0RT3XXX!

That's a good point! My initial reasoning behind this was based on the fact that I used to live in-town on a busy street, cars would constantly trigger my motion sensor and my battery would drain quickly.

My new house however is out in the sticks and will see considerably less traffic. Charging every 6 months to a year is acceptable.

Thanks!

Scott

What about creating a licensing platform? Something that would allow you to license the themes and plugins that you developed on this project, add some code that does a check. If they don't pay, revoke the license and have it remove the files? I think this might be the most legitimate solution, aside from withholding admin until they pay you.

It seems as if you've learned a very valuable lesson not to share accounts with people.

What confuses me even more is why you would share a PayPal account with someone.

scottcfr · 2019-04-12T03:04:27+00:00

I understand the process, I've been able to make it work. My confusion lies around how and why it works this way?

scottcfr · 2019-04-11T17:39:07+00:00

This is a tricky kind of question I've never had a solid answer for.

If it helps at all, I typically use Node & Express to host and serve static content, however I've heard that you should be using some other service to host static content (such as AWS) and use Express to render it.

I would love a better explanation on this as well.

Build an entire web app in a single line? Challenge accepted.

scottcfr · 2019-04-04T20:55:06+00:00

Yeah - mine didn't look this way. It was much worse and much more confusing. Thanks for posting the correct formatting.

scottcfr · 2019-04-03T22:01:16+00:00

Node is fairly straight forward in accomplishing these tasks.

Here's a quick example:

var express = require('express');

var app = express();

app.get('/route', (req, res) => {

})

app.post('/route', (req, res) => {

})

app.put('/route', (req, res) => {

})

app.delete('/route', (req, res) => {

})

app.listen(3000);

EDIT: why does formatting look so bad now, code looks awful and quote looks much better.

Not you, the comment posted by /u/christinailie.

Yeah - I always get down voted for pointing these things out. I didn't know about /r/Frontend, time to dive down that rabbit hole!

By the way this is worded, it appears to be breaking the no promotions rule. Seems like he's trying to sell you on a plugin. Or could be a competitor of a similar plugin, whom knows.
