My answer to this problem has been the plugin Wordfence. It's primary feature is a WAF whose rules update continuously and intercepts every request. Having worked at several agencies I've seen and inherited many hacked sites. I have never had a site be infected with a clean install using Wordfence. knocks on wood

Fair enough. I primarily use it for GraphQL queries. Each of my queries exist in a file queryName.jsx. Those files consist of the following code:

  import gql from 'graphql-tag';
  
  export default gql`
    query Blah($var: VarType!) {
      blah(var: $var) {
        id
        etc
      }
    }
  `;

I like it. Not confusing to me or anyone on my team. To each their own.

It's a nice feature when used appropriately. Article says at the bottom in bold: "It’s a nice-to-know feature, good for impressing others, but my suggestion is to use this only if it’s the clearest way to express your concepts."

Using AWS CodePipeline (Github -> AWS CodeBuild -> AWS CodeDeploy). It works nicely with all of our AWS resources. Looking to migrate to Kubernetes.

I am a huge Grateful Dead fan (I don't call myself a dead head because I was 9 when Jerry died, I never saw them play.) But I always loved John Perry Barlow's songs. My old band used to cover The Music Never Stopped and Cassidy, and my all time favorite dead song is Throwing Stones.

I didn't even know he was a big influencer in tech until I saw him appear on the Colbert Report representing the EFF.

My JPB story is short and relatively meaningless, but back when I first signed up for twitter I just followed a bunch of famous people and would every now and then attempt to engage them. The only one that ever replied back to me was John Perry Barlow, and it made my week. I had interfaced with true greatness. Rest in peace, John!

Love it. Might want to update the meta tags to remove the mention of the "preact-boilerplate." That's some prime real estate for describing your site when sharing it socially.

It is honestly worth your while to pay off your mortgage as soon as humanly possible.

siteground shared hosting - you get capped at X number of executions per 2 hour / 24 hour period / month. If reached, they shut you down until your quota refreshes at the end of the month or if you contact them to get your account reinstated. On the plus side, their tech support is helpful and hands on. Op should probably upgrade their hosting plan.

I didn't see the original article, but he was tossed a softball. The issues quoted in his response are so cliché.

React is great, and judging by the growing ecosystem, many people agree. If you don't like it because it requires you to learn a workflow you are unfamiliar with, don't use it.

What CSS really needs is a canonical standard, and a tool for generating CSS compatible styles for ALL browsers down to IE8. Until then, I'm more than happy to skip these new layout techniques.

I recognize that 3d model from when I was learning blender. It's carl from the walking dead, from a tutorial by Sebastian Lague. His channel is full of Blender, Unity, and general Game development tutorials. All very detailed and helpful: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmtyQOKKmrMVaKuRXz02jbQ

I find the responses to my comment pretty great. I find the comment that "the game is not for me" particularly amusing. This game is right up my alley. I knew I would get downvoted for posting what I posted, but I feel it should be said. Contrary to what the other guy says, I feel it's a valid contribution in itself. I get that the background is the game. I get that it is a brilliant game. I get that it is a cult classic. I don't care if nobody cares. It is a fucking terrible background to read text on.

No offense but trying to read a list with that background burns the eyes
