I don't like the idea of Jetbrains having a monopoly on smart code editors but... no matter how much I try, I can't find anything approaching its level of convenience and language-understanding. (For Python, Rust, and JS/TS)

I'm running into a bug that's roundabout enough that I'm not even sure how to google it effectively. So I'm using a React frontend and an Express backend, both currently running on localhost. All information about the website is stored on a local SQLite database (although I had this bug when I was using a local MongoDB one as well). The website is built around being extremely editable, with lots of different components potentially getting updated back to back by the user. When I'm doing mass data input on the site it'll just silently stop making POSTs to the server until I refresh the page after I update 6 or so elements. What's the cause of this and is there a way to prevent it? I think it's on the React end, since refreshing immediately resets it and lets me start making edits again, but I'm really not sure. Does anyone have an idea as to what's going on here? I can give more info on how things are structured if needed, but this feels like it's probably less of a thing with my code and more of an unspoken design choice in how React works that I'm not aware of OtspIII fucked around with this message at 01:58 on Aug 28, 2020 |

If performance is a concern, then I can only recommend ed, the standard text editor I have been paying Jetbrains the $150 a year for everything, but I still use VSCode for web projects a lot of the time. The IntelliSense there for web development - especially with TS - is second to none.

Munkeymon posted:Are you sure the requests are completing? Oh man, I figured it out. So I was doing a bunch of fetches from my client, but not all of my server-side POST handlers were sending confirmation messages back to the client after the POST was handled (which, in retrospect, was a dumb mistake on my part even unrelated to this bug). I guess React must have a queue or something of fetches to process, and if there are six fetches still waiting on a response it won't send out any more until those have been handled. So I'd make six edits, never get confirmations from the server that they went smoothly, and then the queue would clog up and everything would stop working

ultrafilter posted:Is there a data structure analogous to a binary search tree for partially ordered data? I don't think there's an exactly-analogous general-case one. Depending on what exactly you're after, there might be some data structure that has the specific properties you care about. There also might be something more directly analogous if your partial ordering has specific structure to it.

Volmarias posted:Consider also batching your mutations rather than sending them one at a time. Including if the mutations are from different user inputs? Like... Case A: hitting this button once spawns six new boxes and send six posts to the server. It sounds like I should set this up to batch messages Case B: there are five text boxes the user can edit on screen. I figure I shouldn't batch these since there's likely to be a big time delay between edits Case C: there are six boxes on the screen, and each has a red button that deletes it from there screen/DB. This is the case I'm not sure on--odds are decent the user might close all six in rapid succession. Should there be a little timer that collects messages and batches them in that case, or is it better practice to still just send six posts?

OtspIII posted:Including if the mutations are from different user inputs? Like... It's sort of a decision you have to make. You could take the super simple approach of "until the last request returns or times out, just add every mutation to a queue, them send the contents of the queue as a whole as the next request, rinse and repeat. If you expect high latency but good throughput, you probably want to let multiple concurrent requests. I'm sure there's frameworks that can do all of this for you, I haven't done real web dev since Web One Point Oh.

So I've started learning web development and I wanted to start accepting Stripe payments on some apps. Is it advisable to create some sort of business entity? These are pretty small crappy apps for now and I don't expect a ton of customers. Also, if I'm going to do a lot of smaller sites, does each one need to be a separate business or could I just make an overarching one like "Agentcow Services, LLC"?

Hey all, I develop a small freeware windows application and I'm looking into getting a code signing cert to make the scary windows defender warning go away. I was looking around and found https://codesigncert.com/ which sells a 3-year Comodo cert for the same price that Comodo sells a 1-year cert for. I understand windows code signing is mostly a racket so the prices are completely made up, but that seems too cheap compared to everywhere else I'm looking. I'm curious if anyone here has experience using them. It also says that Comodo provides "extremely complacent solutions", which really makes me think. Alternatively, does anyone know a reliable cheap vendor for this sort of thing?

Also, if I'm going to do a lot of smaller sites, does each one need to be a separate business or could I just make an overarching one like "Agentcow Services, LLC"? I hold an LLC strictly for the limited liability part of things. The way it was explained to me is that if you do work through an LLC then the business goes south for whatever reason and someone takes legal action against you, since you were working through an LLC it prevents them from being able to take action against your personal property. Like only the assets of the business can be considered, not any assets you own personally. I've probably butchered the explanation somehow, but basically in my case it was a $50 or so filing fee with my state government to cover my rear end a bit. Plus I think you can writeoff things like PC purchases for something like 2-3 years as business expenses, if that's your thing. I've never bothered, I just use a CPA to file my taxes and help me maximize returns. Macichne Leainig fucked around with this message at 15:02 on Sep 2, 2020 |

I'm not a lawyer and this is not legal advice but I do work at a legal tech startup that does litigation and, occasionally, corporate formations. If I was freelancing I'd definitely start a protective business entity, most likely an LLC. In my state its cheap ( wanna say $150), fast, easy, allows you to have employees if things start to go well and has many protections for your personal assets. Be aware though, there's plenty you can do that risks "piercing the veil" and some laws which hold the members/managers liable, for example unpaid wages under the FLSA. You can google "piercing the veil" for more info about when your personal stuff might not be protected. In my state I'd need to file paperwork each year that takes about 15 minutes to keep it active. Websites get sued pretty frequently where I live for ADA violations. You wouldnt want that website you built for some hotel 3 years ago to end up with you getting shook down for $10K.

Heya once upon a time a poster gave me this code which I use as a bookmarklet to help skim picture threads / skip derails:code:quote:java script:(function(){ $('table.post').filter(function() { return $(this).find('.postbody > div.tweet, .postbody > img, .postbody > a:not([href*="somethingawful.com"]), .postbody > .timg_container, .postbody > url.container, .postbody > .gifv_video, .postbody > iframe',.postbody > str.includes(“KEEP THIS POST”)).length === 0 }).hide() })() I turned it into a quote instead of code so bolding could happen. In this case, I'd like it to also show posts where the text of KEEP THIS POST is included somewhere. I keep trying things but honestly I'm just flailing.

I have what I think is a pretty simple machine learning project I want to work on, but everytime I sit down to start, I get bogged down by finding a good tutorial/place to start. There’s ton of tutorials out there for this stuff, but I haven’t found one that tells me why i’m doing some of this stuff. Basically, I have a MYSQL database that I want to use to train a model. There’s a column (color) that I want to predict based on data from the other columns (time of day, temperature). Does anyone have any recommendations for a good starting point, or even a tutorial?

What do I need to do to create subdomain DNS entries quickly? I have a web app that adds subdomains through Namecheap API (so the customer gets a vm at user.example.com), but it takes forever (10+ minutes) to go live. Do I need my own DNS server? I always thought they were large-scale infrastructure, not something you'd roll up on your own. What am I missing?

DNS is hierarchical, you would provide your own authoritative DNS server, but it only covers your particular site and subdomains. Namecheap probably does this for you as one of the services they provide along with your domain registration right now, but (as you've found) their goals for that service aren't necessarily in line with what you need. You could use something like Cloudflare DNS, if you didn't want to stand up and manage an actual server. Alternatively, if all your subdomains are one level deep, you could register a wildcard DNS entry and have your own infrastructure handle it from there.

I've made a discord bot for my one friendship group's discord and I host it on my PC. I am a cheapskate that doesn't want to pay even a measly £5 a month for hosting (cos it will add up ya know). I do however have access to web hosting. Is it possible to host it from something like Siteground? If so, how would I go about that?

Unless i'm an idiot and Jupyter is somehow still using Python 2, or whatever was installed by default in OSX. I installed Python 3 via Brew, then changed the Python version used via a symlink. 'python --version' returns 3.8.5 in the terminal, and 'which python' returns /usr/local/bin/python which also shows 3.8.5, so I think i'm good, right?
