So basically, I am in high school and have been pushed a website assignment that requires full stack knowledge, I am fully clueless about Javascript, we haven't been taught it at all but need to make things such as search boxes with ai assist, etc.

How do I not get cooked by this? [currently pulling all-nighters]

"search boxes with AI assist" what

#

Also check your course material, you're probably a few weeks behind already?

north cipher
#

but we need to icnroprate javascript too

#

we havent even touched javascript in class

#

so im cooked asf, its due ina week too

it mayhaps may be the time to copy code

open relic

It mayhaps be the time to share the assignment

i dont plan on being a cs major because frankly the job market seems shit

#

but tis useful knowledge

#

rn ive been trying to make some projects on my own but its a bit hard with my teachers breathign down my neck

north cipher
#

still planning to do cs as a minor

open relic
#

I'd agree the job market for CS is shit right now

#

But do you actually believe that a business major has it easier? 💀

north cipher
#

hell no they dont

#

lmfao

Might wanna post your assignment because they probably don't expect you to do anything super crazy

north cipher
#

like we are given creativity

#

but need specific features

#

its designing a website for a company

#

8 pages minimum, login, signup, js features, responsive, use of ai for assisting, styling things, etc

#

Is using json for storing user info best?

#

or are there better options?

open relic
#

Use of AI for assisting

#

how much crack did your professor smoke before writing up that garbage?

north cipher
open relic
#

Or are they referring to you using AI to write the code

north cipher
#

no lmao

open relic

#

we gotta like

#

use it for autofill, ai assistance for disabled

#

and shit

#

fuck why did i take both softwares

open relic
#

Again I think you're interpreting stuff into the assignment

north cipher
#

nah i asked them this exact stuff

open relic
#

I really can't imagine them actually asking you to make some garbage AI feature

north cipher
#

because i thought they were insane

#

and they said yeah

open relic
#

jesus christ the state of modern education

north cipher
#

legit

#

our teacher

#

gave us

#

1 piece of javascript

#

said analyse it

#

and expects us to do this shit

open relic
#

May I ask what country this is in? kek

north cipher
#

australia

#

lmfao

open relic
#

Damn

#

The West is doomed...

north cipher
#

python i have a dogshit grasp on but a graps nonetheless

#

html and css same

#

js is like

#

an abyss

open relic
#

JS is basically like ugly Python with shittier standards

north cipher
#

i agree

#

like what the fuck

#

same function 100+ lines

open relic
#

Maybe ask chat gippity for advice on how to build funny AI features kek

north cipher
#

this thing

#

fucking sucks shit

#

we gotta like

#

explain our code

#

at the end too

#

aghhhh

#

then there is that one prodigy in the class thats been coding since the age of 5

#

who is incorporating 3d shit

open relic
#

It's even harder for that guy I'd assume

north cipher
#

my ranking is doomed

north cipher
#

the big problem is the coding itself

#

report can be bullshit

#

i think

#

i might be cooked

#

fuck this im sleeping

#

tyty

open relic
north cipher
#

im back

open relic
#

Those assignments (and professors) are typically completely detached from reality with a focus on the wrong areas with incredibly outdated tech

north cipher
#

i realised it was 6:20am

#

so not btohered to sleep no more

north cipher
#

oh yeah speaking of that

#

the js piece he gave us

#

purpossely had erros in it

#

for us to identify em

#

evne tho like 90% of people didnt know js

#

like

#

tf?

open relic
#

😂

north cipher
#

like i legit remember asking

#

why is there a triple =

#

and bro said oh yeah it just works

#

then later said that was an error

#

like bro?

open relic
#

=== is a thing in JavaScript

#

== is with coercing types, === is super strict equality

north cipher
#

yeah i researched it later and it was

#

the problem was he said the correct one was ==

#

he said === works when ti doesnt

#

it

#

like how am i meant to know that?

#

aghhhhh

#

time t get ready

#

thanks for the chat, have a good day

Hi

# ruby temple Idk wtf is happening with your assignment but I did have something similar in ye...

My best guess was same as not rob, an input with a datalist for auto-complete?```html
<div>
<label for="names">Name: </label>
<datalist id="names">
<option value="attention_to_detail">Attention to detail (low->excellent)</option>
<option value="creativity">Creativity (low->excellent)</option>
<option value="performance">Speed/performance (slow->fast)</option>
<option value="security">Security measures (poor->solid)</option>
<option value="uptime">Server uptime (poor->solid)</option>
</datalist>
<input id="name" tabindex="1" autocomplete="on" list="names">
<button id="nameclr" title="Clear the input.">X</button>
</div>

Technically a good coder will throw back a bad request upon running an initial parse? 🤔
