It's sort of eh. Someone said it reminded them of a website from the early 2000's. The backgrounds for the boxes will be expanded so they don't tile at bigger resolutions. It's probably best viewed in an 800x600 window, as that's what it was originally designed for (recently discovered box resizing, hah).
Under server details, each header might get its own box.
Yes, the logo smells.

Still an early mockup, no real details
I am totally sold on graph databases now. Neo4j is almost hilariously powerful. This piece of code...
1. gets all the things liked by a user
2. sticks them in a collection
3. finds all the people who have liked the things the user has liked, and then finds all the things that they have liked
4. filters out any things that are in the collection from step 2
5. counts the number of likes each thing has
6. sorts the things we've found from most likes to least likes and then returns an array of database row IDs for them.
And look how fucking short it is:
[code]
Neoid.db.execute_script("
m = [:]
u = g.idx('node_auto_index').get(unique_id_key, user_unique_id).next()
u_likes = []
u.out('likes').aggregate(u_likes).in('likes').out('likes').except(u_likes).groupCount(m).iterate()
m.sort{-it.value}.collect{it.key.ar_id}
", unique_id_key: Neoid::UNIQUE_ID_KEY, user_unique_id: neo_unique_id).to_a
[/code]
And the 5th and 6th line are the only ones doing the real work. The first one just creates the map that will hold the items ranked by number of likes, the second one finds the user we are searching from, the third one just sets up the collection to hold the user's likes, and the first and last lines obviously run the query (with the last one providing the parameterized values we need to find the user).
did some very very basic xml embedding into a html document. just started working xml documents and html. Luckily I know Javascript already, so the script used in embedding the XML was way easy to figure out.

Will update with some content in a bit. New logo on the the [url=http://www.circleprefect.com/]webpage [/url] tho..
Btw, I learned from somewhere that I think a heading like this helps with Google indexing, the numbers at the top being how many letters the Google robots (or whatever!) read
[CODE]<head>
<title>Terraria Hosting, 50 Cents and Under Per Slot, Monthly Reserve.</title>
<!-- 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789

<meta name="description"
content="Circle Prefect, Terraria Hosting, 50 cents and under.">
<meta name="keywords"

<meta name="robots" content="all,index,follow">

[/CODE]
But this was several years ago. This could be irrelevant (I did not make the format for the heading)

I present to you, my new and revamped website - it's not quite as finished as I would have liked and it's missing a product as I haven't finished it yet but as I'm going to university soon I wanted to push it before I go. Any feedback is very welcome.

If you need an SSL certificate then I'm your guy! I've tried to make the best possible order experience after being very unimpressed by the current options. I'm currently targeting App Engine users as I found the process of setting up a certificate with App Engine to be non-straightforward (it requires both the certificate and the key to be in a special format and doesn't give a helpful message if they are not, it just rejects them) but I also provide the unformatted certificates so they can be used with any host.
If you don't need an SSL certificate then I'd appreciate it if you could order a dummy one from the sandbox site:[URL="http://beta.volcanic-pixels.appspot.com/"] http://beta.volcanic-pixels.appspot.com/[/URL] (enter 4242 4242 4242 4242 as the credit card with any valid expiry and CVC) and give me some feedback on the process.
If you are an advanced user then you can upload a CSR by clicking "upload csr".

So you want me to buy a SSL cert by entering my Bank Card number on a site [B]with out[/B] SSL?
Not a good sign.
[QUOTE=benjojo;42378032]So you want me to buy a SSL cert by entering my Bank Card number on a site [B]with out[/B] SSL?

The main site does have SSL, the sandbox does not.
[url]https://www.volcanicpixels.com[/url]
Also:
The credit card details are never sent to our server, they are sent to stripe (which uses ssl regardless of whether you have loaded the ssl version of my site or not) via javascript straight from the page, a stripe token is then sent to our server. This token can only be used by us as it is linked to our secret key.
Soon I will enforce SSL (just don't want to do that until I'm certain everything is fine as it isn't something you can just undo once google starts linking to https)
Either way by using Stripe you must have SSL (as they say on their site), regardless of whether the details go through your server or not.
[QUOTE=Snakess;42378360]Either way by using Stripe you must have SSL (as they say on their site), regardless of whether the details go through your server or not.[/QUOTE]
I do have SSL, I just hadn't flicked the switch to force users to use it which I have now done.
Stripes SSL requirements do not apply to their own sandbox API (which is what the sandbox version of the site uses).
You will now need to access the sandbox via [URL="https://beta-dot-volcanic-pixels.appspot.com/"]https://beta-dot-volcanic-pixels.appspot.com/[/URL] otherwise you will get a warning that the ssl certificate is not correct.

You have to be really on top of always improving your skills and keeping connections open with the right people. Absorb and learn as much as you can and make sure that everyone you talk to knows how passionate you are about it.
I don't even have my high school diploma yet.
Also turning NYX into more of a platform/framework, you can either write your own modules or choose from the built-in ones. There are also module packs which are just a collection of related modules that you can disable/enable in bulk. It'll be great for internal enterprise apps and stuff like that because you can rapidly prototype, even faster than Rails because of how DRY everything is.

Rad. Is this up anywhere we can peek at it? I've been coming to the realization that it would be nice to have a layer above something like rails that does even more work for you, because a lot of the code you end up writing when you build apps is still simple CRUD stuff, and can definitely be made way more DRY than they way rails encourages you to build.

I've been getting so many work offers thrown my way lately that I couldn't even take them all if I had a second copy of myself. I'm seriously considering starting up a consultancy again except finding a few good people to employ/subcontract this time around.

Not yet, I do have it on a private Github repo but I'm not comfortable with opening it up because of the infrequency of my commits and the commit messages. It's really opinionated at the moment and the markup generation is bound to Bootstrap which I'm not sure if I should change or not.

I don't think being bound to bootstrap this early on is a terrible thing. Is there an easy mechanism for people to plug different generators in if they want to?

Not at the moment, no. Shouldn't be too difficult though. I'll see if I can split the markup generators into modules.
Funny, was just talking to my parents about how it was a mistake to continue after high school. I could have spend the last 4 years improving the skills I will actually use instead of wasting time for shit like "game design and development" that eats away half a school year.
Here are some hours spend on some classes I take.
200 hours Cisco (CNA)
112 hours Presentation (Half of it Dutch and half English)
200 hours Math (Mostly shit already learned at highschool)
250 hours spend on classes that teach you how to do school
And these are some of the more useful classes. So many hours wasted on shit like "working together", "how to deal with conflicts" (just watch "[URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSf3YB_g79s"]Straight talking[/URL]") and of course how could I forget "thinking creatively" where we had to write a paper with very strict rules about how it has to be written.
It does feel good I will have a paper to show but I don't think its that much of a requirement these days. You can teach yourself everything programming related if you are motivated. The best part is just the student life that comes with going to uni.
