GraphQL was a good attempt at allowing the client to determine exactly what data it needs to receiver. We
should take the next step and allow the client to completely define the database itself and make the server
just host the raw data. I'm going to call this BlobStore.

the only thing that stops all other software from being reinvented all the time is other things being built on
top of it, making it harder to change without breaking something important.
webdev is close enough to the top that nothing really "important" depends on it remaining the same

is it possible to somehow register a service worker without actually calling

navigator.serviceWorker.register()
in my code?
similar to how browsers will fallback to /favicon.ico
can I put a service worker script file and have it registered automatically by the browser?

background: I've got a web server, outside my control, which creates HTML directory listings if there's no
index.html file in the requested directory. These listings are very bare bones and I'd like to apply some
additional styles etc.
If I can get a service worker registration, then I suppose I should be able to intercept the requests and
inject some style elements into the HTML directory listings.
I would like this to happen automatically, rather than having to specifically direct users to
/enable_pretty_styles.html or something.

For fellow employed web devs - how much are you getting paid and what are your working conditions?

My first job: $60K/yr, midwest US, fully remote, flexible working hours (it doesn't matter when I work), only
25hrs per week of work need to be logged. So it's a 25-hour work week but ends up being over 30 when
you include talking to clients and figuring out what they want, setting shit up and being able to focus.

I work with React, React Native, PHP, and a shitton of shitty custom WP themes for the smaller projects.

I have about a year of experience now and can do fullstack work completely alone.

Should I look to jump ship soon, or stick with this longer? I want more money but I don't want to work
longer hours. Anything except remote work is no-go for me, I'm not wasting 1-2hrs per day in a fucking car

let and const are block-scoped, which (in simple terms) means they only exist within the block of code
denoted by curly braces
for example:
if (condition) { let foo = 5 }
here foo is only defined within the body of the conditional expression but not outside of it

if you were to use "var" instead, it would work as you originally expected because var is scoped to the
whole function in which it is declared. But you should not be using var in 2023. Try to use const wherever
possible.
In the code you provided, you can use const if you replace the if statement with the ternary operator like
this:
const one = a.yearOfDeath ? a.yearOfDeath - a.yearOfBirth : year - a.yearOfBirth
or even:
const one = (a.yearOfDeath ?? year) - a.yearOfBirth
 Lastly, there's no need to sort an array if you only want to find the largest or smallest element. This operation
is O(n) if you iterate over the array only once while keeping the "greatest element so far" in a variable.
Update the variable when you encounter an older person.

What's the conventional way to "skip" variable declaration in a callback function? Say for example you are
looping like this:
>[...something].forEach( (item, index, array) => {} );
and I don't need index, what would you call that variable? There has to be a convention for this right? I
just had a nested loop pick the wrong iterator from the outer one because of the way I generally call my
variables during loops

the convention is to use underscore as the first character of the name
[].forEach(item, _idx, arr)
of course if you only need "item" then you can just skip the remaining parameters altogether

Had my first round of challenges for a junior role today. I have a question about double precision floating
point in JavaScript. I know there's a hidden bit in the mantissa and I know the smallest distance between
floating point representations is an ULP. Luckily I knew how an ULP and machine epsilon differed in that
it's a constant whereas a ULP is relative (they tried to trick me). My question is moreso about the guard
digits. It was a kind of simple question:

Why does (square root of 2)^2 - 2 not equal 0. So I walked through the process of adding the exponents
and shifting the radix point which in turn increments the exponent. However I was a bit lost on how floating
point actually rounds. I just answered that since the 54 bit was 1 it was rounding upwards and it seemed
correct.

Also does anyone know if the ECMAscript specifies anything about twos complement integer encoding?

In a react project, I have a potentially very long array of similarly structured objects (data from an API), if I
knew a particular field on those objects that I wanted speedy access to, I could obviously preprocess the
array of responses into a hash table keyed on that field.

What if I wanted to do this on any key of the object? The naïve solution is to make a hash table for every
possible key That seems suboptimal spacewise, but it would get the job done timewise. Is there a better
solution I'm not thinking of?

>> Anonymous 03/12/23(Sun)01:09:42 No.92036747 ▶

>>92036648
Since you just reference the original objects, you just copy each value one time. So you should just end
up with O(n) for the array + O(n * map objects) or something like that.
Basically just double the size and a bit more depending on how much extra a map object uses.
So it should not be that bad. If you can handle one array, you can probably handle the double the size.

What do you mean by "want speed access to"?

Like you want to get a list of every element of the collection where that key = a certain value? Or you want
to iterate the entire collection and get that value out for each element?

Honestly this sounds like a premature optimization unless you know this is an actual bottleneck. Shit like
iterating a list with 10000 elements takes microseconds on even a pretty slow computer. It'd probably be
faster with a for loop than with .filter() though. What is slow 99% of the time is DOM operations, API calls
or doing actual calculations.

But yeah, you can make an array indexed by the key you want to search on, if you use a string based key
then JS will just make a hash table automatically I'm pretty sure. And yes, it'll trade off space for
performance, but that's the nature of indexes.

The second SQL execution should be:

$stmt->execute(array($usn, $usn, $pwdHashed[0]['user_pwd']));

ERROR 2:

As someone pointed out in the comments, using rowCount() to check how many results we get when we
query the database, isn't a method that work in all database types. Instead you should use count() after
you returned the data. Make sure you do it ALL PLACES where you SELECT from the database.

SO INSTEAD OF:

$stmt = null;
header("location: login.php?error=usernotfound");
exit();
}
$profileData = $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

Because that's only partially true. These libraries help for sure, but I think in majority of cases are not
enough. Eg. we're using React with MUI but still write quite a bit of SCSS.

How do you go about actually making a back-end service? I see a lot of tutorials about how to make APIs
but what if I want to take the request of the user and do some heavy processing, that cant be done in an
API right?

I think of APIs as gateways into my system but im having difficulty understanding how I actually make the
"system".

Sure you could call external stuff from your backend but if you use a reasonable language/framework
there's really no need to do so, unless what you are doing is very heavy to process. For normal use? Just
use the backend itself.

Made a board game in React and I wanted to try and use sockets to make it multiplayer but it's actually
been harder than making the game. I managed to get it where two people could join a game with each
other but because of react's re-rendering bullshit it disconnected both of the users from their room and I've
put in all of that work just to be at square one

Is working with sockets usually this hard or am I being retarded?

it's because I'm using the auto-generated socket id to connect users, so when the state changes to reflect
a room being created it re-renders it, leaving the users from the game.

well I'd have to persist Id's using something like uuid and cookies which is easy enough, but on the
backend socket.io automatically creates rooms for the auto-generated socket id so I'd have to write a
bunch of code that filters the auto-generated ones, on top of that I already have janky code as it is to
prevent showing users occupied rooms and I don't know whether react's re-rendering would still
automatically break up rooms that were previously connected by users. I guess I'd have to persist the
session somehow

Are you making the socket connection inside the component and just using a regular variable? You could

Any object inside a useRef is persisted between renders, and changing a "ref" variable doesn't cause a

Nodejs is actually quite simple to get up-and-running, tons of serverless support, lets you share
components between front and backend, and performs reasonably well. For 95% of jobs that require
building server backends, it's 100% sufficient.

The reason web development blew up in the first place was the proliferation of PHP and MySQL on cheap
VPS in the early 2000's. It allowed javascript-shitters to make "good enough" sites and web apps and is
the reason everything is on the web now. Nodejs was a natural evolution so pajeets had to learn one less
language to destroy. There was actually quite a nice sweetspot in history when webapps were largely
pure JS or simple jQuery and 90% server rendered with a little bit of AJAX when it served functionality,
rather than enabling a client framework to mimic MVC.

Depends what you mean by that.
 Usually, you want your API responses to return fast. But that's not always possible, if something complicated
is requested. So you have to make a judgement call.

If you have something heavy to do and you don't want the API response to be slow then your best bet is to
use a queuing library like rabbitMQ etc.

So you have
> API endpoint that creates a "task". This adds a job to the queue and then returns a unique ID for that job.
> API endpoint that queries the job, takes the ID from previous as endpoint and either returns the result, or
returns a "status" that tells you if it is incomplete to failed.

The other alternative is to have some kind of webhook or websocket that "pushes" the result when it is
complete.

Or you can just have a slow API response for some things, but you need to make sure this is properly
documented and make sure you don't have a timeout etc. You also probably don't want to have your UI wait
on the response.

maybe because the iterator doesn't tell the computer how much memory it needs and it doesn't have to
populate the array afterwards
however iterators are for iterating thought an indeterminate set, using them to gain a small
memory/processing advantage over array at a huge cost of readability in an era of excess memory and

Not him, but I'd personally just do it as a fully server rendered PHP site and use a simple 10-30 line JS for
hiding/showing comment trees.

The page would respond with s-maxage/stale-while-revalidate headers so that pages are cached on
CloudFlare. Lighthouse metrics would be 100.

You could get a little more complex and do it using Astro, it doesn't require any opt in to any UI library like
React/Svelte so you can just do raw JS. it's probably easier to deploy as well with providers like Vercel
and Netlify having full support for running JS on edge functions.

Hey wdg. Would you mind tearing my janky code apart?

I am learning react and trying to create an old fashioned desktop in the browser. I am having trouble
making a component draggable across the screen. This "process" component is the window in which
individual apps will be rendered in. At the moment I have all of the dragging logic inside this component. I
am keeping track of two states(MouseCoords, OldMouseCoords) and the mouse position (up/down).
Basically Movement is determined by compairing old mousecoords to mousecoords and figuring out
which way the box needs to move, then editing the css style to make it rerender somewhere else.

This feels like a really hacky way to do this, any suggestions? I'll reply with the component

type ProcessProps = {
exitApp: (processID: number) => void;
process: ApplicationProcess;
}

const Process: FC<ProcessProps> = (

{

exitApp,
process,

}
) => {
const [MouseCoords, setMouseCoords] = useState({ x: 301, y: 301 });
const [OldMouseCoords, setOldMouseCoords] = useState({ x: 300, y: 300 });
const [BottomLeft, setBottomLeft] = useState({ bottom: 300, left: 300 })
const [mouseDown, setMouseDown] = useState(false);

const MousePosition = (event: React.MouseEvent<HTMLDivElement, MouseEvent>) =

if (mouseDown) {
setOldMouseCoords({ x: MouseCoords.x, y: MouseCoords.y });
setMouseCoords({ x: event.screenX, y: event.screenY });
}
}

A somewhat better way for this would be to use "movementX" and "movementY" of the mousemove event
 IMO.
But generally speaking your approach is correct.

lol it took me almost 3 hours to solve a leetcode easy question that basically only used for loops & arrays
then, i got to a question that used trees, had no idea how to solve it, looked at the answers, had no idea
what i was looking at, and just gave up on leetcode entirely
i just accepted the fact that i will fail interviews that use leetcode questions
i'm hoping that they ask me work-related questions, or just give me take home projects
i can't be fucked to learn DS&A and git gud at leetcode, when 90% of my work is just fetching APIs and
handling JSON data, or updating CSS colors
i don't care if this makes me stupid, i'm just not wasting time on that shit
