If you ask it to build a headless frontend web app, it immediately starts generating code with Next.js. I’ve always wondered how it was trained to default to that choice, given the smorgasbord of web frameworks out there. Next.js is solid, but it’s also platform-ware, tightly coupled to commercial interests. I wish there were more bias toward genuinely open-source technologies.
Why can't this just be on their website? Not everything needs engagement from the masses.
Also building online communities is incredibly difficult and resource heavy, seeing that we can barely get enough funding for teachers to run their classrooms appropriately would this be the best use of taxpayers money?
Curious, how long did it take before you before emacs was your go-to choice?
I'm a big vi and sublime text user but always open for better tooling.
btw - I actually agree with you on the learning thing but React just sucks. I'm able to get shit done with Vue and at the end of the week I haven't wasted three afternoons learning jsx/webpack/deployment/relearning-a-new-way-of-doing-css blah blah. I say this with some hesitation but CSS is a solved problem in my opinion with Sass.
Talk honestly about things you are working towards professionally.
This has always worked well for me for a few reasons 1) the honesty will show and be appreciated, building trust with your prospective employer and 2) they can make an inform decision as to how they can benefit from your future growth. Both parties win because expectations are set from the get go.
For example, I have a phone interview tomorrow, and I will probably talk about things I am trying to level up on (Angular 2, Laravel and Python/Flask etc) yet, I'm very familiar with javascript, OOPHP, and most of the front end stack.
If you try to fool them it will turn out bad for both in the long wrong. I actually prefer to take a code exam so they know exactly what my weaknesses and strengths are.
If you have capital for investment in programmatic display ads you can buy the audience that way. I work in digital for a radio/publishing company and I can honestly say the programatic ads work.
Would you mind explaining? As a jQuery believer, to me this looks like a selector method - getElementByID or something. I'm guessing this is against the whole idea of React.
Ads pay my salary. I agree. Someone has to pay for the free content everyone is getting. I will say that we try to created interesting and meaningful ads, not just garbage. We are one of the good guys, at least we try to be.
Honestly, ad devs are some of the savviest javascript developers out there. We have a lot of constraints and need to move fast and scrappy on a daily basis.
I won't be doing it forever however it's one of those things that holds my interest until i get in my car and go home for the day.
* I work for a very large company that own radio & publishing properties.
I used Grunt for a little while until I discovered Gulp. Thought I'd post another option if anyone is interested. Much easier to get up and going. Although it doesn't have as large a community of tools. I'm confident it will get there.
