I don't know about recent events, or chatgpt4 lately, but i reallly thing it has gotten far worse in the latest months, around the time when issues about protection of jobs against AI and ethical were arising.

I started web development in the last year and was desperately looking for a job, i learned React and Django and was really bad at those as well.
I just got a chance to land a fullstack job near my home, it required Node and Angular, liked my interview and wanted to test me in 2 weeks.

I really put a lot of effort and hours myself, followed documentations and tutorials, but i kid you not, chatgpt got me out of a looot of stupid issues i could not figure out, either syntax, or complete explanation of what i was wrong about, (i really don't like and use copy-paste of its code, just because i needed to learn, not complete the project).

Landed that job with my boss even congratulating me on my assignment and got around with my tasks better than what i used to do with my own code.

Lately I feel it is waaay worse, maybe it's me using it just to find out something i can't already find anywhere else, but it's not uncommon I paste in some code, and he spits out word for word the same thing i'm telling it is not working

wow, thanks for all the help!! Man, i misssed this kind of community feel for the last like...4 years.

I just woke up and saw this comment, as i get back from work i'll test it.
Yesterday I've tried making nginx proxy manager and cloudflare work, since I had already tried them couple of times, but still, i get to the same point and can't really figure out why I either get "Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site." or " Web server is down Error code 521 "

same here about reddit, I just joined as well, and also plan on giving back to communities I enjoyed in reddit.

Unfortunately i'm kinda busy with a new job and I haven't had time yet to properly set up all my communities and start adding content :(

anyway, thanks a lot, i didn't know about tildes, i'll check it out !!

right?? so it's not just my own impression...

I know I like tech stuff and I know i can get passionate and raise my skills on my own, but I could not find any good "beginner level" resource that didn't step from a simple nice to get drawing of how things should be, to a complex mixmatch of services and settings that leaves me in doubt of what do i have to do in my instance....

Thanks for the link, i'll check it out as i get back home...
Since you are on the same journey and know about any group chat or communities that are noob approachable, i'm all ears

I may have express myself poorly, sorry, was in a rush.

I got the services running fine, am still learning and testing few things but the things I need or build are available and running on local.

My issue is about publishing them online, like linking them to a domain name I bough, and pointing that to my static home IP address, and the routing for each of them
like "cloud.myhomelab.net" to point to my home IP, and then reverse proxy that to the nextcloud instance at 192.168.1.127:8080 that is a proxmox container running docker containers

I followed some of dbtech's tutorials, and tried via Porkbun and cloudflare tunnels, and just after posting this I saw that it finally propagated (after a looot of days) but can only reach one of the services I set up.

Another way i kinda heard about was not using cloudflare tunnels and redirecting the traffic to my static IP to an nginx container that then redirects the traffic inside my home lan but I really don't know how to handle security with that, and also my ISP is blocking traffic on port 80 and 443 ( "it's for our router firmware's updates..." that were like 4 years ago last update )

All the idea of how to connect my local machines to the outside world and different method and secure proofing is soo difficult to understand for my, i really can't wrap my head around on what does what

 

So, couple years ago i started to learn about tech, programming and self hosting services thanks to redditors ( not reddit the evil corp ), and found lots of communities where they pointed me to good resources but then ended up allocating more time to learning programming to switch career into that field and finally got it.

As a passion and private needs I had set up couple of small servers for testing, but never ended up being able to actually expose them publicly in a secure way

I found some "beginner level" tutorials, but to be honest, it still was quite hard to understand.

Where can I found even lower level resources or any chat group or discord group for literal illeterates like me??

I know i can do my own research as I did for programming, but that was for landing an actual job, this is mostly for personal need, so i really cannot allocate much time into studying so much while I also have family duties and improving my coding skill for the current job

Thanks a lot

goood!
Reddit behaved in such a horrible way, that I feel like API pricing was the least of the bad...

One could argue about their fairness and aim to destroy 3rd party apps, and I had already closed my accounts at that very step.

But the way they treated mods, forced subs to open and behaved like pure evil assholes, I really see how companies or more "official" subreddits with a touch of interest in their users, would feel the desire to leave and close bridges

 

Hi yall!!
I swear I want to do my due diligence and learn it and google it myself...
But i really cant allocate enough time between my new career, family and home stuff...

I usually only browse via mobile and it is kinda more difficult to get a hang of it...i usually never know where i'm at and what i am looking

Also...on mobile like 80% of the posts are in polish and I can't really figure out where i am lookin into.

I just started coding and can't even allocate time in the week to code something on my own or learn something new...so struggling to learn what to do here, seems even harder.

I swear I want to allocate more time and not be a pain to others, but I also kinda would like a place where i can ask things and read answers to other user's questions about switching to a new platfom.

Also, many times i google about it, It is either a super long youtube video, or a reddit post...and i'm not going to click on the reddit thing at all
