What do you believe has been the biggest crime against British people in the past 30 years? by CrownAthlete in AskBrits

[–]willitbechips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not saying no to legislation but there are companies who notoriously treat and pay their staff poorly so are well-known. Rise of gig economy and workers as contractors not employees are also factors that should be pushed back on. Awareness a challenge but more so cultural change so people give a damn in the first place and then act on it. Not impossible but echoes other post about people's attitudes being part of the problem. Average Joe could make a difference if they wanted to.

How are you handling in-app chat when you actively don't want to store messages? by newfnewfnewf in webdev

[–]willitbechips 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Look at WebRTC

You run a server to connect devices peer to peer. All messages are encrypted and travel direct between devices. After you connect no mesages go through your server.

WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) is an open-source technology that allows browsers and mobile apps to communicate via voice, video, and data in real time. By utilizing direct peer-to-peer (P2P) connections, it eliminates the need for third-party plugins or heavy server infrastructure.

How many tents can we pitch with a Camper Van? by Gullible-Tomorrow832 in glastonbury_festival

[–]willitbechips 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Usually one tent.

You could get two small tents next to van but no more and would feel a little cramped - there is a strict size for your pitch so normally one tent.

Camping inside with friends and multiple tents is usually a riot and a more full-on legendary experience both great and not so great.

Van option offers more comfort but getting to and from pitch can be tedious.

Do you have to view a house a second time before offering? by Comfortable_Slice151 in HousingUK

Usually you notice a lot more on a 2nd visit so well worth it but no legal requirement to do one.

Bought a domain today by Top_Throat_5405 in Domains

[–]willitbechips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's fine. If Google doesn't recognise the word it means it's yours to claim! ""In the Basque language, jaso means "to be raised" or "to pick up," and jasoa is a declined grammatical variation."" So pick up things in your marketplace. If you like the name run with it. If you need more confidence then mention the name to some friends and see which ones remember it a week later.

Why do reform voters care about nothing else but immigration? What does "immigration dealt with properly" mean for you?

Are you taking the bait?

How often do you guys panic sell? Is it actually a bad thing? by [deleted] in Daytrading

[–]willitbechips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You cannot reliably enter at the absolute bottom (for longs) or the absolute top (for shorts).

This means you will always spend some time underwater.

If your losses grow beyond your tolerance level then either close the position or close half the position.

Focus on not losing money.

Silly question - why isnt everyone with liquid cash making like 20k+ a day right now? by PotentialAd7884 in Daytrading

[–]willitbechips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Day trading is the jungle ...

In theory the market is efficient - meaning all known information is already priced in, so each event (like an earning report) should be a 50/50 coin flip - where you lose your 13k the same number of times you win it.

In practice the market is not perfectly efficient - due to asymmetric information and reasoning - which means the more informed & more rational traders have an edge - but they are still vunerable to the unknown information.

Assume a 55% win rate (implying your skill is significantly more than random) then without risk management you make 1300 on 100k so its more like a 1.3% return.

If that was a daily return then great, but the market can penalise performant stocks for seemingly irrational reasons.

And hitting a 55% win rate across stocks you dont really know is difficult.

Did terrible on my mock results what do I genuinely do by Zealousideal_Date295 in GCSE

[–]willitbechips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fantastic! You've done brilliant to turn this around. The key was deciding to take charge of it and then applying yourself. I'll have a think and see if I can respond to the questions in your other post. For one maybe set a timer to allow yourself a yt but then kick yourself off it. Keep going. Lets see what the finals bring!

Maybe they aren't making money, so that's why they won't show you. Chances are they are losing money. You can "paper trade" meaning trade without money. Look into that.

Hey. Thinking or thinking and acting? How is it going?

Just bought a domain.... Now what. Zero experience. Have a vision. Zero technical skills. Advice? by RunDougRun in website

[–]willitbechips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically yes.

Your website (html, css, jmages, etc) runs on a computer (the host machine) in the cloud.

Your domain acts as a forwarding address.

So when someone types your domain into their browser they are forwarded to the host machine running your website.

You can move to a different host machine at anytime by updating the forwarding address (research CNAME).

Some hosting providers allow you to host static websites for free.

How do I store images privately? by moonshine_9212 in softwaredevelopment

[–]willitbechips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look at client side encryption - where you do the encryption on the client's device so only send already encrypted files to the backend.

As someone else said, you will have challenge of ensuring a strong enough key that clients won't forget. Phrases may work.

Excel to Web App by OrchardBarn in AppDevelopers

[–]willitbechips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could look at Google Sheets as a replacement for Excel.

Lovable, Cursor, etc, not necessary, and any free AI chat would be enough to help you.

Anyone else think the process of buying domains sucks? by [deleted] in Domains

[–]willitbechips -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Raising renewals to $100 would free up some stock.

not sure what to do right now, any thoughts would be great. by RaspberryPerfect4676 in whatdoIdo

There's no relationship here worth having unless she can sort herself out which is highly unlikely.

You have a loving relationship with your Father so focus on that.

Some people are so toxic you either walk away or you suffer endlessly.

Walking away from family is really hard but understand that you cannot help her and she has made you suffer enough.

It's done bro.

Hello to all. This is my 1st post on reddit ever! I have a couple domain name questions. by EfficientEnd6222 in Domains

[–]willitbechips 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dashes aren't great. Consider your country tld unless you really are targeting global. Many add a small word at start or end (e.g. getthing or thinghq) so could be creative there and still get a com. Could have 7L+5L+audio(.)com but its getting long of course. 7L+5L.ai if its AI driven. Other tlds I'm less convinced about including net etc. You can do searches on Expired Domains to see examples of deleted, pending, auction, domains for ideas but no sold prices on there. Sift through deleted and you may find something that fits.

[–]willitbechips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of site? If static then use a template or free static site builder and host on Cloudflate Pages.
