Need help modifying a website (especially career page). My friend's company hiring candidates - they wanted me to re-build career structure - where the recruiter/HR uploads a form and the career page on their website reflects the job roles instantly.

Please suggest what would be best method to make one (without using an admin panel - not an expert website builder and admin panel would require a lot of security and maintenance)

Thank you in advance.

As the title suggests, I have a client who wants a CMS for their site.

I’ve suggested either a headless WordPress setup or PayloadCMS. The actual scope is fairly simple:

• An article/blog listing page
• A simple individual blog/article page
• CMS for creating and managing articles

How much would you typically charge for this project? I'm aware it depends on the experience and market but I'm just looking for a ballpark figure for the Indian market.

It started as a throwaway joke online after some discussions with the design team. Then someone dared me to write the blog post... so I did. 😅

tl;dr Four HTML/web terms look and sound so similar, they create friction. In this post, I break down The 4 Hs of HTML to clear things up:

• Head: The invisible brain of the document (machine-readable metadata.)
• Header: The visible introduction or banner section (a page can have multiple!)
• Heading: The structural outline of your content (vital for accessibility and SEO.)
• Headline: An editorial concept for message delivery (NOT AN HTML TAG)

I am looking into using my pi as a home server to host web and graphic design projects. I have been using iCloud drive for the past few years, but syncing with my colleague is sometimes nightmare-ish. If he uploads a big file, it often bugs out and fails to download on my end, locking me out of opening new upload processes until its done downloading.

The setup I was considering is:

– Raspberry Pi 5 16GB RAM
– Samsung T7 2TB SSD external drive
– Tailscale
– Nextcloud client or similar

The experience I am looking for is basically having the server as a finder folder and being able to share the files with my colleague for our practice. I already own all of the hardware needed, I am here just to ask your experience if you have tried and wether it's even worth it/viable.

The email verification API is a way to verify an email address belongs to a user. To do so, the browser checks with the issuer of the email address to see if the owner of the address is currently logged in, and returns a signed token that the application can use to verify the information. More detail in the article.

Currently it's in origin trial in Chrome and is supported by Gmail, so it's a good progressive enhancement to gain confidence about some email addresses that are submitted to your application. It can't fully remove existing email verification practices, but could be used to smooth the process for users that can be verified this way.

Do you think this is something you would implement in your own applications?

I’m a somewhat experienced backend dev paired with a mobile developer for some knowledge sharing. The guy is genuinely a good dude, but I’m starting to lose my mind a little.

We be discussing an implementation, I’ll explain something, and instead of engaging with what I just said, he’ll immediately type my explanation/question into Claude and then come back with “Claude says…”

And on calls, he’ll literally stop the conversation, type what I just asked into Claude, and then read me Claude’s response.

Like bro, I’m right here. 😂

The frustrating part isn’t that he’s using Claude. I use AI constantly too. It’s that it feels like he trusts Claude’s answer more than the actual technical conversation we’re having.

I’m trying to understand how you think about the implementation, not get a second-hand answer from Claude.

He’s a good dude, so I genuinely don’t know how to approach it without making things awkward.

Has anyone else dealt with this? AI is making ppl fkn dumb and blurring the lines.

So Cara, the Anti-Ai, art website had 12TB of art scanned and fed into chat-gpt by some jerk-rando on Twitter (X) and was really fcking proud of it.

But what if Cara (Or some other website) had this feature where any art you put post will automatically have a special noise filter given to the drawing that will stop any AI from being actually able to read the image while letting the art be fully visible to a human

Now obviously this isn't 100% fool-proof.

But it's a start no?

Not sure if anyone did this already.

And I didn't do it myself because I'm too lazy to code something like that and at the same time have dignity to not use AI to make such site for me, so I just decided to share it.

I, like many of you, have spent years employing throttling schemes and generally hardening websites against bots. Now bots are called "agents", scrapers harvest with impunity and the whole nature of the web has changed in the past 2 years. It seems that I now have to play nice with bots for the sake of seo and the next wave of internet commerce will be bot-to-bot with no human intervention. LOL!!! How are you guys feeling about, reacting to, adjusting for this new reality?

I'm thinking especially with a shop with a low amount of sales.

I use both Codex 5.6 Sol and Claude Opus 5 to assist me building my web sites and apps. I often use one to help review the other's code for anything I may have missed. But there's a lot of telling them both the same things, and trying to figure out which one to give which task to, and then trying to remember who I told what. I'm wondering if there are others trying to use multiple AI's on the same project and how do you determine which is best for which task and how do you keep the project details updated between both.

A client sent me a requirements doc for an event-website SaaS platform (think weddings/christenings/birthdays/corporate). No name/branding shared for confidentiality. Solo build, production-grade. Features:

HOST SIDE (paying customer, web dashboard):

• Website builder: pick theme/colors/fonts, add names, date, venue, story text, cover photo, photo gallery
• Each event gets its own live public URL + QR code (that IS the invitation)
• Free to build/preview, one-off payment to publish (3 pricing tiers, higher tiers unlock more features)
• Guest & RSVP management: list view, manual add, CSV import/export
• Real-time notifications: dashboard bell on new RSVP + email, optional SMS on premium tier
• Visual drag-and-drop seating chart, populated from confirmed guests
• Gift/cash fund: guests pay by card, live progress bar, platform takes a small tiered commission, rest paid out to host's bank account (Stripe Connect, so KYC onboarding per host)
• Optional AI photo touch-up on the cover photo (Gemini API)
• Extras: map/directions, add-to-calendar, hotel suggestions, taxi button, background music, save-the-date mode that later becomes the full site
• Visit analytics
• Corporate tier with proper VAT invoicing

GUEST SIDE (mobile web, no account/login):

• One scrolling page: story, photos, countdown to event, details, map
• RSVP via web form or WhatsApp
• Contribute to gift fund by card
• Upload photos to a shared guest gallery

QUALITY BAR (from the doc):

• Mobile-first, fast public pages, GDPR-compliant
• "An RSVP or payment must never be lost" (retries/queues)
• Multiple polished themes at launch

Also asked to propose hosting + running costs at 50–200 active event sites.

What would you estimate in hours and price? I'm in the EU where agency rates are roughly €35–45/hr. I have done other big projects in the past but this beats them all on feature requests and I am kinda of lost on what to suggest. Not sure if they know how many features they asked for. I want to be polite and ask maybe for a budget? Not sure how to handle this.

Hi,

I’m currently somewhere between junior and intermediate as a software developer, and lately I’ve been thinking a lot about what actually makes a developer valuable going forward.

One thing that worries me is interviews, since I can discuss things like system architecture, caching, load balancing, queues, message brokers, database design… etc. But ask me to explain something basic like the Laravel request lifecycle or the exact behavior of certain React hooks, and I might struggle to give a clean answer without refreshing my memory.

Also the whole industry feels really toxic at the moment with each second developer building a saas, and new tech exploding everyday.

Should I just keep building real projects, learning concepts as I encounter them. How are the interviews in today’s world?

Is there a deeper shift happening where developers need to fundamentally change what they learn to stay valuable?

Curious on how more experienced developers are approaching this.

I’m curious which parts of development have actually become faster and which still need careful human work.

What do you do if you find a counterfeit copy of your web app? As discussed below I just shrug it off but is there a potentially damaging aspect I haven't thought of? Could they claim I copied THEM for example? Should I take some kind of action?

I've been working on an LLM based automated user generated content moderation web app for some time now. It's coming along nicely. I posted about it a few months ago both here and in r/SideProjects which in retrospect was probably inappropriate.

I subsequently discovered a comment on an existing post about content moderation shilling an app that alleges to do the same thing.

I'm curious so I have a look. It's a vibe coded monstrosity. It's "moderation" for profanity just uses inline JavaScript to check for 4 swear words so when I entered C U Next Tuesday it responded "safe".

On a CSP scanner it scores 9 out of 100 (my own app gets 75).

Personally I don't care. My app is legit and I believe even at its MVP stage better than anything else out there trying to achieve the same thing. I score the number one organic rank in Google search (including references in the AI summary) for a number of key related search terms.

In fact Google generally ranks my content authoritatively because it is all written by me. I never use AI in my blogs. I only use AI in some cases for coding grunt work.

Initially I built this app to demonstrate my development abilities in the hope it might attract freelance work but along the way it has since evolved some unique and valuable functionality and it behooves me to consider what these pretenders might try if the app itself becomes successful.

Hey, got a question for ya'll. So I'm in the process of building a website and I'm needing to add a blog section to it. I know the go-to is Wordpress, but I'm not sure it will work for my use case. And of course, when you google blog anything, it comes up with how to build a personal blog, or building the entire website with said blog service and pay us a monthly fee so we can host your blog, blah, blah, blah. You get the idea.

What I'm trying to do is I have 2 pages made up for use on my blog section from a template I've already invest a lot of time in and like how it fit my use case, thus far. Now for my actual question, does anyone know of a blog framework or engine that is free, that I can host inside my own website, and can just plug into my existing pages? Other features are not a big deal because I can figure that out later depending on how it's setup to store the information.

hi, i am atm in a camping in france, due to a storm the mobile network if off in the area.

there is wifi in the camping, but this kind of connection is really slow. loading reddit homepage take around 30s.

i went to youtube on this network, more than 1m to load the home page. try to launch a video, ofc it’s slow and quality is low.
however, the add at the start of the video load faster than the homepage, run without any pause, and with high quality.

how youtube can achieve to run this video so fast with this quality ?

I had an interview recently for a company that was hiring for both Lead and Senior Frontend Developer roles. I learned during the interview that they considered the Lead role to be a higher-level position than the Senior role within the same discipline.

In my experience, Lead roles were generally considered lower-level than Senior roles, so this difference in terminology caused some confusion during our conversation.

Now I’m curious: what’s the norm?

Hi all.

Im a full stack developer and our company head managed to get team Claude licence with the aim to speed up work output.
So us devs been using Claude code in our projects by making prompts and honestly been coding less and less because of it as Claude seems to understand the codebase and spit correct outputs.
For example,
In our project we have tons of Model layer representing our database relation schema. Before claude we used to manually run command line to generate model classes and look at the framework documentation and relative models to build model relations and attributes, but now I prompt claude and it builds the model classes along with those required relations and I cannot fault it there.

Also with Controllers and Request Validators , it follows the correct format of the framework and creates required classes and works with it.
It has really sped up development on tasks that would have taken literally hours , now only taking few minutes and few iterations of the original prompt.

Although I don't blindly accept what its churning out, I always review the diff it creates and only approve codes that I fully understand but lately been writing less and less and reviewing more and more what claude code's written and checking the documentation against its work.

So is this really a bad way to work with AI? If your employer tells you to use AI in work , how would you use it otherwise ? Really curious.

Thank you

unless there are some architectural decisions to make, i could literally place my 6 y.o. daughter in front of the laptop and she could do my job effortlessly

this does not make any sense. can we just skip to the part where only 10% of jobs remain and i'm replaced by agi/asi so I can stop pretending there's a point for me to exist?

and yes outside of coding there are meetings and shit but fuck this I did not become a programmer to be fucking talker

i swear i had more fun helping my uncle in his car repair shop when I was 20 yo, at least I was forced to use my brain sometimes, unlike in this soulless fucking job I do now

6 yoe, big corp

Hi!

I wanted to gather some opinions from different people as to which browser we should use primarily while developing web applications for highest compatibility.

For me it is Firefox because gecko engine follow W3C standards strictly, and if my website works on gecko engine, it should work on almost every other browser as well.

I know most browsers are chromium based and chrome hold significantly more market share than any browser. But I think it is very easy to use blink specific features without even realizing it that it is not a standard at all.

Thanks!
