2 weeks ago I created a prototype in SwiftUI to present at work this week and I was going to use my phone. An hour before the meeting I decided to open it and do one last run-through to refamiliarize myself with it. I got the same notice. H

I agree that even old conversations need updates, but I think it should come in the form of a repost. Ask or post about the same thing again and let it get to the front page. Every year or two the same thing needs opened for conversation -

All of the “suggestions” involve letting a pretty nasty bug persist in the wild. I can see why time was of the essence for them. Backlash from knowingly letting a bug be in production and exploitable would probably mean even bigger problems

Hmm, I disagree, and I also have a few clients that swear by its success. Many times it’s not that you didn’t show enough info on your site, it’s that you purposely withheld info on the site to force a live chat requiring a name and email o

Yeah. WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, Laravel, vanilla php. Together they power almost 45-50% of the web. So PHP is still extremely relevant. The most relevant you might be able to say.

Some hosts will require that you also install an SMTP plugin and use a 3rd party service like Sendgrid or Mailgun to authenticate and send the messages. If you have a professional web developer to help, this is usually fine, but if you don&

I got the same email and I sent them the same email. Not paying for anything, it was a free tool for a while, I didn’t use it, but loved the company. It is sad to see it crash and burn like this.

I don't like how the thing I have to move covers up the things I have to look at. Lost interest pretty quick because of this, but it seems like it would be pretty easy to put the moving thing next to the symbol or something.

And it’s okay for bootstrap to use p- or m- etc? Is it just because it’s w3?

I hope you’re so wrong. W3 schools is a wonderful, excellent site. Dropping w3- in front of their classes is so you can drop it in anywhere. It’s actually rather brilliant and has been helpful in many cases for me. I don’t get the w3 schoo

You’re missing out. It’s probably the best and easiest to use css/js/html reference site anywhere. I can’t gauge how it’s changed but I find it’s to-the-point and example driven format is perfect for the way I learn.

I still learn to code from books. Something about reading the code, retyping it, looking at it on the page. It gets glued into my mind in a way that I can actually retain and recall it. You learn NOTHING from copy pasting stackoverflow. I a

Life without TikTok, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram is so much better. There’s just no way to tell those people what they’re missing.

So, if an open source company changes their license, the code that existed before the license change still exists under the previous license right?

This is awkward. I don’t wait. In fact I try to get my comment out before anyone else when I see someone is typing. Hmm.

Just PHP. Plain old JavaScript. Bootstrap for CSS/HTML tho. Maybe I’m old, but learning frameworks doesn’t speed up or simplify anything for me.

We can make assumptions all day but for me, the worst thing about WordPress is EASILY Plugin Hell. I can update all plugins this morning and they all want updates by the end of the day. And then when they break it’s a disaster. WordPress it

Who decides what is “cleaner” and “simpler”? It’s such a strange take in the coding world. I don’t know why other developers get to decide what is clean, simple, easier to understand, etc, when it comes to my code or the way I write code. I

Haven’t there been banner ads at the bottom of shows for over a decade now or more? Usually not from the tv maker, but still a big banner at the bottom with a cheesy animation of the sitcom star or whatever?

Honestly, I went to the site, tried a few questions, waited a long time for it to “think” and got back pretty poor “answers” which were just links to the same huge websites that run ads on Google. Not going to go back unless it makes some s
