If it’s actual work that suits my experience and not some pitch to buy their product, then it’d be a nice foot in the door. We’ll see how this goes.

Thank you! I knew there was something, but I wasn’t sure what.

Thanks for sharing this. I really need to listen to that podcast more.

Exactly the same company. The fact that all of their glassdoor reviews are from India made me rethink if I should follow through. We’ll see how it goes, but making a blacklist sounds pretty dope, so that’s a nice new goal.

For some reason in middle school I tried it and, for obvious reasons, couldn’t figure it out. Then in 2012-2014 Reddit kept telling everyone to learn Python. I failed that and kept trying randomly for 10 years. I’ve only recently begun making progress in web dev, which is deliberately avoided because of Reddit language opinions.

Ignoring all of that, I really like text editors for some reason, and I’m on a journey to make some. I still haven’t made any, but it’s a goal.

They’re completely separate. I’ve heard that they’re working on ways to fix this issue, though.

Because of the difference is that there’s a hard cut in continuity with the teleporter. The body is destroyed. In normal life, our body does get replaced, but the continuity remains equal through that time. With the teleporter, everything gets replaced at once, which is a hard continuity cut.

For this reason, sleep doesn’t affect continuity, just its potency and what can be accessed during sleep. If we turn a microwave off by unplugging it, whatever continuity it has ceases, this is in no way equal to sleeping. The functions, information, and mind are still present and functional.

Question: How long does it take to get the proverbial ball rolling on Upwork? I used it for a month and spent $200+ and wasn’t able to get any work.

For sure, I’ll send you an email.

edit: sent. Thank you again for the help.

I’ll stay away from the LLMs for now – they’re largely unhelpful anyway.

The value of those elements needs to be concatenated and displayed to the user. Is that right?

Right. The other components with a single text box seem to work fine, it’s the multiple boxes in the phone component, and it’s local state, that are confusing me to no end.

I think what you’re talking about are Signals from Preact?

Oh, no, when I was talking to Bing it said that the local state interferes with the parent state, so I instead need to bring the parent state into the child. It sort of makes sense? At least the part that local and parent state can interfere with each other makes sense.

If you’re still interested we could try writing a couple of basic components that get us part of the way there.

Please, I’m all ears. I have a feeling that your approach will help me a lot.

If there’s any links, resources, mental models, or anything that you or anyone else think would be helpful in getting this to work, I’m all ears. Also, since it’s pretty obvious that this is an assignment, my limitation is that I cannot use useEffect, and the PhoneComponent has to use 4 inputs.

I’ve been stuck on this for about a week now, so any help, feedback, insight, or articles I should read would be incredibly appreciated.

Hey, I’m just now seeing this. So, my component hierarchy is something like this:

App

• Form
  • TextInput
  • PhoneInput

The TextInput components are very simple:

import { ErrorMessage } from "../ErrorMessage"; //this function can be used to determine if the error message renders based on criteria

export const FunctionalTextInput = ({
  dataProperty,
  errorMessage,
  placeholder,
  value,
  propertyHandler,
}: {
  dataProperty: string;
  errorMessage: string;
  placeholder: string;
  value: string;
  propertyHandler: (property: string, e: string) => void;
}) => {
  //Object.keys(initialUserData)[0]
  return (
    <>
      <div>
        {dataProperty}:
         propertyHandler(dataProperty, e.target.value)}
        />
      </div>
      
    
  );
};

export const FunctionalTextInput = ({
  dataProperty,
  errorMessage,
  placeholder,
  value,
  propertyHandler,
}: {
  dataProperty: string;
  errorMessage: string;
  placeholder: string;
  value: string;
  propertyHandler: (property: string, e: string) => void;
}) => {
  //Object.keys(initialUserData)[0]
  return (
    <>
      <div>
        {dataProperty}:
         propertyHandler(dataProperty, e.target.value)}
        />
      </div>
      
    
  );
};

The shape of my data is like so:

export type UserInformation = {
  firstName: string;
  lastName: string;
  email: string;
  city: string;
  phone: string[];
};

In my Form Component, I have two functions that work in the TextInput component, but not the PhoneInput component.

const dataHandler = (e: FormEvent) => {
    e.preventDefault();
    userDataHandler(formData);
    setFormData(initialUserData);
  };
const propertyHandler = (property: string, value: string) => {
    setFormData((prevProp) => ({ ...prevProp, [property]: value }));
  };

So, over the past few hours I’ve been trying to talk to bing about this, and get some answers. After a few hours, I finally think the problem is a conflict of state. It seems like the state I’m using in my PhoneInput component interferes with the state of the parent component. This seems to be the case since when I click submit, my dataHandler function doesn’t trigger for the PhoneInput component.

So, I guess now I’m wondering how that works? I’ve heard of raising state to the parent, but passing state down, not as data, but as actual state, sounds difficult and somewhat complex. I’m wondering how to use this technique, the uses, and how I can determine when to use it. Or, better yet, maybe I’m missing something and the answer is right outside my reach.

The phone input in question:

// This is a component that is used for the phone input
// it wall accept 4 inputs, and "lift" the values to the parent component as a single, unformatted string.

import { ChangeEventHandler, useRef, useState } from "react";
import { ErrorMessage } from "../ErrorMessage";

type TPhoneInputProps = {
  errorMessage: string;
  dataProperty: string;
  higherPhoneState: string[];
  propertyHandler: (property: string, e: string) => void;
};
export const FunctionalPhoneInput = ({
  errorMessage,
  dataProperty,
  higherPhoneState,
  propertyHandler,
}: TPhoneInputProps) => {
  const [phoneState, setPhoneState] = useState(["", "", "", ""]);
  const phoneNumber = [
    useRef(null),
    useRef(null),
    useRef(null),
    useRef(null),
  ];
  const phoneNum0 = phoneNumber[0];
  const phoneNum1 = phoneNumber[1];
  const phoneNum2 = phoneNumber[2];
  const phoneNum3 = phoneNumber[3];
  const phoneChangeController =
    (
      index: 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 //  1 | 2 | 3 | 4,
    ): ChangeEventHandler =>
    (e: React.ChangeEvent) => {
      const length = [2, 2, 2, 1];
      const nextInput = phoneNumber[index + 1];
      const prevInput = phoneNumber[index - 1];
      const maxLength = length[index];
      const value = e.target.value;
      const shouldGoToNextInput =
        maxLength === value.length && nextInput?.current;
      const shouldGoToPrevInput = value.length === 0;
      const newState = phoneState.map((phone, phoneIndex) =>
        index === phoneIndex ? e.target.value : phone
      );
      if (shouldGoToNextInput) {
        nextInput.current?.focus();
      }
      if (shouldGoToPrevInput) {
        prevInput.current?.focus();
      }
      setPhoneState(newState);
      console.log(newState.join(""));
      console.log(dataProperty);

      // Concatenate the new state with e.target.value to get the full phone number
      // const fullPhoneNumber =
      //   newState.slice(0, index).join("") +
      //   e.target.value +
      //   newState.slice(index + 1).join("");
      propertyHandler(dataProperty, newState.join(""));
    };
  return (
<> 
<div>
        Phone:
        <div>
          
          -
          
          -
          
          -
          
        </div>
      </div>

  );
};

Please note that this component is 1000% broken. I was in the process of changing it with Bings suggestions, but it’s frustrating getting anything useful out of the thing.

I’ve used it to help me understand some code concepts and debugging, but over the last two weeks, it went from competent to completely stupid half of the time. It also fails to connect so often, it’s unreal.

Thank you 🙏

If you still have any, I’d appreciate one.

Godot is written in GoLang?

Especially if it’s free. Who would say no to free food?

Similar, but in a past job, I didn’t pick up on some cues, treated a coworker like how I treat everyone, and I got yelled at by them. They told me to respect the hierarchy and that I’m not his equal - I was training for a higher position at the time. I was later let go for other reasons they wouldn’t mention.

This is my third time writing this. I just have to say, I agree with you 100%. I’ve only begun to begin to act “normal” by being treated like shit and being afraid of being myself.

I’ve even had a boss tell me to only talk about the weather. It’s grueling, dehumanizing seeing other people talk like normal, but when I do it, it’s somehow wrong.

Thanks for the tip! I’ve gotta try that
