User-defined HTTP callbacks When something happens, ping this URL with this data Examples: When something sells, ping this URL When someone reverses a charge, lock their account Trigger a build of the website when the content changes Then someone buys a shirt, generate a shipping label and save it to the DB 07:57 - Sending End Can be a great way to hook two services together 09:13 - Receiving End Often you will be the one that accepts the webhook ping In this case, you set up an endpoint 11:00 - Payloads Almost all will send a JSON body that you parse out The method send is variable 11:51 - Auth On the receiving end of a webhook, you often get a token which you can then ping the service with. It will tell you if that request was legit or not. On the sending end, you can often set up headers with auth - same with the method Can be a replacement for a serverless function 13:18 - Testing webhooks Can be a pain in the ass ngrok - expose locally localtunnel Insomnia Postman Stripe has a great VS code extension Snipcart has an awesome dashboard Will also tell you when one failed webhook.site https://expose.dev/ IFTTT Zapier Tweet us your tasty treats!

A cabinet reshuffle is expected hours after we go to air, with leaks abounding. Nicola Sturgeon, Scotland's First Minister, has made a strong case for independence in a speech to her Scottish National Party this week. But there remains a big constitutional barrier.  Meanwhile Brexit Britain is suffering a goods shortage due to a lack of truck drivers. Hasty training of new drivers is underway.

Future versions of TypeScript may introduce additional stricter checking under this flag, so upgrades of TypeScript might result in new type errors in your program. When appropriate and possible, a corresponding flag will be added to disable that behavior. 03:26 - noImplicitAny The any type in TypeScript is exactly that - it can be anything. TypeScript will try to infer the type. When it can't it will be any. Sometimes you need any, but if that is the case, you must explicitly type it as any. If something is implicitly any - it might be a mistake, or you forgot to type it. Risky! 06:01 - noImplicitThis You must type this - it can't be implicitly inferred. 06:47 - strictFunctionTypes If you have a type that is a function and it doesn't 100%. 07:44 - alwaysStrict Always turns on strict mode. You can't do things like redeclare var variables. 09:25 - strictNullChecks Makes you check that the item is actually there before accessing a value or method from it. Imagine you filter or find on an array, or query selector a DOM element. There is a possibility that nothing is there. strictNullChecks makes you check that it's there - like an if statement.

Scope creep - Adds on new features while not considering the amount of work required to make them happen. Can be mad when you run out of time or budget. Ill Communicator Contacts you at odd times. Thinks that you should answer every email in an hour. Contacts you in inappropriate ways, via text message, social media. OR doesn't respond to emails in a timely manner giving you blockers. Jerk The rude client Thinks they can be rude because they are giving you money Hundreds of emails Tries to be flashy upfront (dinners, etc.) Scatterbrain or way too big. Facebook for nurses 18:06 - What to do about toxic clients Communicate your needs clearly. Set expectations. “I work best when…” “I answer emails once every two days” Set clear deadlines for deliverables, feedback and revisions (one revision backed in, more at x hourly rate, etc.). Just be VERY clear. If something doesn't work for them, they will hopefully tell you. Get things in writing. Put things clearly in a working agreement for your client to approve. That way you have something to show in case things go south and you can say, “You agreed to the following things”. Fire them You can fire clients. Honestly, some of them just aren't worth the time and effort. It's usually the cheapest clients who demand the most from you. Don't let them take more of your time and energy than they are paying for. Firing clients is very simple.

I made the hastiest hang up of my life a few days ago. I was talking to my buddy Robert, and an emergency emerged...and I just said, "Gotta go. Goodbye." Not at all like the way I usually end a phone call with a friend. Usually it's something like, Well I really enjoyed this 3 hour conversation, but my wife is putting dinner out on the table, so I've got to go." That's a more reasonable way for a guy to get to a hangup after a long conversation. "Oh my god my husband's home" is an...effective... hasty hang up line for a woman talking on the phone to her lover. But I got to an immediate hurry up hang up recently with my buddy Robert. I just said, "I've got to go, goodbye" in a fast, out of breath burst, and I slammed the phone down. I still use a land line for my phone calls, so I have a slammer handy for hasty hangups. I'll tell you what caused the hasty hangup in a few minutes...and it's a true story. But I've come to realize that some hang ups don't involve a telephone. Like when you're trying to be polite but you can't remember which fingers you're supposed to put in your mouth when you want to give one of those long, loud whistles at a baseball game. Or if you have an important piano recital to give and you know that practice makes perfect, but nobody's perfect, so how do you talk yourself into practicing. Don't get hung up. Give a listen please.

Show Notes 03:15 - I was wondering what you guys think about using the latest of Svelte (svelte-next) in serious projects? Does the improved devEx makes up for the small (but growing) community and lack of libraries? Do you think svelte-next is here to stay or maybe we will get a revamp that breaks backward compatibility in a couple of years, like svelte 2 -> svelte 3? 8:48 - Git question: My process is often that I want to be able to use my last project as a starting point for my next project, with the new project having absolutely no connection or relationship to the old project. What steps can I take to completely sever any ties to the old project? Bonus question: In the new project I would love to eliminate all commits from the old project and start the new project having just one commit, the initial commit with all the code from the old project. 11:05 - Is CRA still useful for building actual production-level web apps these days? People seem to be reaching for Next or Gatsby most of the time, and I feel CRA is mainly used for actually learning React/building personal small websites. Your thoughts? Also, for normal CSR, I feel it is better to use something like Next, and fetch data inside your component (eg: for a dashboard) rather than building one with CRA. Am I wrong? 19:40 - What are your favorite screencast tools? (Linux? Mac? Windows?) 25:53 - Is it a bad trait for beginners to “give up” easily? By that, I mean instead of taking the time to think of the answer to a problem, they would instead rely on googling the solution and try to understand how it worked afterward. 27:55 - In pursuit of better health I want to track my weight daily using a smart digital scale. The idea is to automate the process of logging my own weight (e.g. stepping on the scale will update my Apple Health and any other integrations I have). After some searching around I landed on the Aria Air (mostly because I like the design and it has the coolest name). One small problem - it does not sync with Apple Health as it is a product from FitBit. They have an API so I'm thinking about running a serverless function daily, around 8 a.m. after I weigh in, to hit the FitBit API, get the data and push it to Apple Health. This way I can stay in the Apple eco-system whilst happily getting this nice, aesthetic digital scale. Any thoughts on how you would personally implement something like this? P.S. My girlfriend thinks I'm crazy, but I know the tinkerer inside Wes will love this. 30:26 - I work for the government with good pay and benefits and love where I work, but I feel like I'm missing out. Working in government we are not always working on the bleeding edge of technology. I do try and learn on my own, but it's hard sometimes if I don't put it into practice. I do peek at other job openings and get excited about the tech stack and the things they're doing. I'm just afraid if I leave I won't have the stability and benefits I would get from working in government. Any tips or thoughts would be appreciated. 34:24 - Unpopular opinion: Authentication isn't that hard, but authorization is! What systems have you built to handle when users with specific permissions are allowed (or disallowed) to take actions within your system? What advice would you give to other developers developing permissions-based APIs, assuming their users can have 5-10 different levels of permissions? 40:21 - What are your thoughts on ReScript as an alternative to TypeScript? 44:43 - How come you guys moved to two sponsors on a Hasty and three on a Tasty? Not that it's a big deal - was just curious of it was to keep up with costs or just because you could and then you'd make more? Either way, the show is awesome and really appreciate your opinions on everything! 48:01 - Have you tried Angular 12? I'd think you'd be pleasantly surprised if you gave it a chance! 52:20 - I have to copy and paste hundreds of products with six rows of details from a spreadsheet into a web interface because there is no API or CSV upload function for this program. Any recommendation on how to automate data entry into web inputs, navigate pages / click buttons, and toggle between applications? BTW, I scored my first web developer job and have to give you guys credit for steering me in the right direction.

 In- Person Interview Questions I walked into an ice cream shoppe in Cincinnati to enjoy two scoops of Cotton Candy ice cream in a waffle cone with sprinkles on top.  Yes, I am a grown man, and yes cotton candy with sprinkles is my preference. Waiting in line I noticed the manager of the shop come around from behind the counter and sit with a lady who had just walked in wearing workout gear.  My first assumption is that it was a friend or family member coming into say hello.  As the two sat down the manager pulled out a piece of paper and began awkwardly asking questions… “What experience do you have working with customers?” “What jobs have you had before?” “What do you think you would like about working here?” I did not time their conversation, however, there is no way it lasted longer than 2 minutes.  It was noticeably brief and the conversation was vanilla (sorry, the dad joke just came out!). The interaction will be remembered as a waste of time for all involved. In-person interviews tend to either be too robotic and templated, or too meandering and wasteful. There is a better way.   The business owners that tend to experience less chaos are the owners who have a mapped out, purposeful, sustained hiring process that walks potential candidates through the various attributes of the business. The exposure creates either desire or lack of desire.  Imagine being guided personally throughout the various worlds of the Magic Kingdom at Disney.  You don't ride the rides, but you take in the sights and the movement.   At the end of your tour, you either love Disney... or not. Most in-person interviews are akin to showing someone a billboard about Disney and then asking them if they are ready to commit their lives to the cause based on a crafted, pass-by advertisement. In order to earn the right to have a great live, in-person interview, you must first have gone through the hard work of the first sections of your hiring process: Understanding the gap in your business and writing a role to fill that gap Budgeting for a new role Writing out your vision, mission, and values Drafting your organizational layout or chart Initiating a phone call with the candidate before bringing them in If you skip those steps, you are setting yourself, and your candidate up for a billboard-style job interview. Once it is time to bring the person in face to face (or via video conference if remote), you will resist the urge to talk about the actual job role. YES!  You will resist discussing the job role. Instead, you will focus on sharing the things that matter most: a) where you are headed as a business (your vision), b) WHY you do what you do (your mission), and c) how your business makes decisions every day (your unique core values). You sit down with your candidate and hand them a written copy of your vision, mission, and values, and you will start to walk through each one pausing periodically to see what questions or thoughts they may have. In the first in-person interview you will discuss ONLY the culture of your business. Why? It is of no value to discuss the role or compensation if you come to find out that this candidate has no desire to head in the direction that you are going. Why would we share the details of their involvement in our trip to Kogi State, Nigeria, if we come to determine that our candidate would actually prefer to travel to Sarasota, Florida? At Business On Purpose we do things a certain way with certain elements and it can feel invasive even though our entire team is remote.  We are in each other's business and are obsessed with predictability and consistency through the tools we have built and expect each other to use. Many businesses have the mindset of “get the work done however you get it done.”  We do not.  For some that does not sit well... For others, they thrive with it.   A client of ours, a mid-level Architecture firm in the Southern United States came with this idea of only discussing culture in the first sit-down interview.  Once complete, the candidate looked across the table shocked, and simply said, “wow, that helps so much”. As the employer, YOU lead the way.  YOU set the tone.  This is the culture that YOU and your team are building and it must be both protected and shared with thoughtfulness and preparation. During the phone conversation, it will be best to let the candidate know the entire flow of your hiring process by simply saying,  “This is a six-step (or whatever) hiring process that will likely take 3 to 6 weeks (name your duration) to complete.  After a casual phone interview where we start to learn your background, we will then invite you to an in-person live interview where we will focus our time on the vision, mission, values, and culture of our business.  To be clear, we will not be discussing the specific job role or compensation details until the 2nd in-person interview (or whatever step that is for you)...” The more structured you are in the hiring process the more confidence you will breed into your candidate as to what they are signing up for (or not).   You will constantly fight the urge to want to “move fast” to hire someone because you need their help.   Relationships rarely benefit from HASTY starts. Your first in-person interview is about sharing culture, and then evaluating if that person matches the right ingredient profile of the culture you are growing.

 In- Person Interview Questions I walked into an ice cream shoppe in Cincinnati to enjoy two scoops of Cotton Candy ice cream in a waffle cone with sprinkles on top.  Yes, I am a grown man, and yes cotton candy with sprinkles is my preference. Waiting in line I noticed the manager of the shop come around from behind the counter and sit with a lady who had just walked in wearing workout gear.  My first assumption is that it was a friend or family member coming into say hello.  As the two sat down the manager pulled out a piece of paper and began awkwardly asking questions… “What experience do you have working with customers?” “What jobs have you had before?” “What do you think you would like about working here?” I did not time their conversation, however, there is no way it lasted longer than 2 minutes.  It was noticeably brief and the conversation was vanilla (sorry, the dad joke just came out!). The interaction will be remembered as a waste of time for all involved. In-person interviews tend to either be too robotic and templated, or too meandering and wasteful. There is a better way.   The business owners that tend to experience less chaos are the owners who have a mapped out, purposeful, sustained hiring process that walks potential candidates through the various attributes of the business. The exposure creates either desire or lack of desire.  Imagine being guided personally throughout the various worlds of the Magic Kingdom at Disney.  You don't ride the rides, but you take in the sights and the movement.   At the end of your tour, you either love Disney... or not.

Usually point your app at an HTML file Your HTML file has an ES module It then goes and loads everything from there They have adaptors for different types of files CSS Images Etc. You can also point it directly at files 14:59 - Common use-cases React / JSX OOTB Vue Svelte TypeScript Both just work Custom Babel config Plugins for both Sass Vite: Detects it, asks to install it Parcel: Detects it, installs it for you PostCSS Processors 20:29 - Custom API Both have a custom API or “plugins”, which you can integrate into your app or tooling if needed. Example use-case: a really nice WordPress dev package. 20:57 - Which one? Both are really good! Parcel 2 has been in dev for 2+ years - unsure when it will launch. Wes: In my experience Vite “just works” a bit better. Might be a side effect of Parcel being in dev. Both are wicked fast.

Show Notes 05:12 - Why and when to rebase? git rebase -i is interactive Rebase allows you to rewind your current branch, apply the changes of another branch to it, and then on top of that, apply your new commits. Common uses: Squash all commits into one or multiple commits Reword commits These lines can be re-ordered — they are executed from top to bottom. p, pick = use commit r, reword = use commit, but edit the commit message e, edit = use commit, but stop for amending s, squash = use commit, but meld into previous commit f, fixup = like “squash”, but discard this commit’s log message x, exec = run command (the rest of the line) using shell b, break = stop here (continue rebase later with ‘git rebase --continue’) d, drop = remove commit l, label = label current HEAD with a name t, reset = reset HEAD to a label m, merge [-C | -c ] [# ] Links Git Rebasing Tweet us your tasty treats!
