Re: Adding Intercom support to your Laravel application

Chris — Thu, 15 Dec 2016 23:37:51 -0000

for this part:

And because we’ve set up the Log implementation, you don’t have to worry about accidentally triggering this service when running your tests or developing locally.

Can you explain further on why that is (the separation between log and intercomagent). Where is the portion of the code that mentions that if the app is local to only log but if it's production/development environment to send data to intercom?

I currently have listeners attached to all my events with logging in each listener but I would want to avoid doing something like if(environment == "production") { send to intercom }, since it'll get clunky.

Re: PredictionIO and Lumen: Building a Movie Recommendation App

I tried looking for it and only found one listed here:

~/PredictionIO/vendors/elasticsearch-1.7.3/config/elasticsearch.yml

Did I miss a step?

Re: PredictionIO and Lumen: Building a Movie Recommendation App

I get this error when I try to access the index page:

cURL error 7: Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 7070: Connection refused

I checked curl localhost:7070 and it returned {"status":"alive"} and I ran pio-start-all. Any ideas why it has connection refused?

Re: Build an Activity Feed: Part 2

Chris — Mon, 04 Apr 2016 05:09:42 -0000

Anyone know if it's possible for the updated portion to also include what was updated? I imagine I'd just need to add a column for the additional data but being able to pass the before values and the new values for the columns would be nice for the feed.

Re: JWT: JSON Web Tokens in AngularJS and Laravel | Toptal

Chris — Fri, 09 Oct 2015 20:19:10 -0000

I wanted to add to this as well. If i have a user management system, and a user logged in and received a token back, what is to stop the user from doing base64 decode on the payload then manipulating the data, encoding it and use the new token? Especially if the payload contains a user_id or something used to send back information from the server.

Re: Gyazo.. on your own server

Thanks for this, not sure how gyazo updated itself but noticed my urls were going to gyazo.com instead of my own server so I had to fix it.

Re: Eloquent 101

Chris — Thu, 21 May 2015 03:01:19 -0000

In the video around 9:50, you mentioned if we don't want to allow user to mass assign user_id, to not include it in the fillable. If I had user_id in my columns, how would I get it to save then?

Or does mass assignment just mean you can't assign using Input::get() but other methods such as Auth::user()->id is allowed?

Just noticed you mentioned Laravel 5. This issue currently exists in Laravel 4 as well. =\

Hey, did you ever figure this out? I'm encountering the same issue on a project of mine where the flash message is not being outputted in the codeception file.

Re: 10 Counterintuitive Lessons We’ve Learned About Email Marketing

Chris — Tue, 31 Mar 2015 13:44:53 -0000

for the ecommerce section of the last point, does CTR typically include the links at the bottom of the email (unsubscribe/manage subscription)? I'm wondering if the second one is higher due to users opting out of the emails or managing their subscriptions to reduce the frequency.

Re: An Algo Change, A Penalty, Or A Fluctuation - Tutorial | SERPWoo - Niche Tracker

Ok, followup question then. So if I joined a few weeks ago, would my view of the data for serp sightings only go back as far as I joined?

Re: An Algo Change, A Penalty, Or A Fluctuation - Tutorial | SERPWoo - Niche Tracker

Chris — Mon, 04 Aug 2014 12:07:19 -0000

For SERP sightings, does it look across the entire system's dataset (not including our own) or just the data each individual accounts are tracking?

Re: Cross Domain Tracking, Multiple Domains & You.

Chris — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 20:38:31 -0000

You'd have to do something like onclick="_gaq.push(['t2._trackPageview','/twitterclick']);_gaq.push(['_trackPageview','/twitterclick']);" where t2 is the second account (similar to how I define t2,t3 in the post above). Let me know if it works.

Re: If You’re Not Using This Gmail Ad Targeting Tactic, You’re Missing Out

Chris — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 12:58:33 -0000

Great tactic. For the keyword, does Gmail just scan the entire contents of the email (subject title and body) or just the subject title? If I did the same with an exact match that occurs in the body of the email, would it work?
