I have a request to do something that I am not sure is possible. The request is to create a website that will backup someones PC, either through the internet or they would download a small software package that will back up their pc and send the backup to a remote server, kind of like Carbonite or Iron Mountain. Does anyone have any idea where I need to start with this or look into how to code for this.
I think you should look into the existing HDD image creators (quick googling gave me XXClone, but you may need something else).
You basically need to
create an image of the entire PC's storage (i.e. all logical disks)
upload the image to the internet area
A relatively small program may perform the tasks 1 and 2 for you, provided that you bundle it with an existing image creator.

I need to create an internal page where there are links to approx 10 files. These will be HR compliance forms and training manuals. Just a list of links, no frills. I started going down the sharepoint path but it seems too complex for what I need. Is there a way to create a 1 page link that will open in a web browser and just list the files in a specific folder? THe files are already stored on a network drive all users have access to. Thanks!
I tried sharepoint but it involves setting up on a server and seems too complex for my needs. T

I am bulding a learning portal for a client and the client has asked for a feature where the user can record and upload sound directly from the browser (or browser plugin) to a custom made forum on the portal. The client envision having a button like [start recording] on the site. I am probably ending up with recommending against this feature but I would like to hear if any of you have done something similar and what you used.
This specific application is built using dotnet core 2.0 and Angular 5 in the frontend.
Using WebRTC could be an option if you can run your site under an SSL cert.
You may want to take a look to this example here.
Here you have another example using the device camera.
You can store the response on a Blob and send it to your server.
It is an initial aproach but I think it could help you take a decision.

I'm implementing an Android app that collects data throughout the day. When the user returns home where there is internet connection, then the app will push data to backend.
I have been looking into Firebase for this. It has offline capabilities that would save data into disk in case there is temporary network interruptions.
My question is whether the offline feature fits with my scenario? Is the feature designed for short term interruptions, or works with any kind of interruptions?
It works with any kind of interruptions. So if you don't have an internet connection during the day, when you come back home in the evening, all the changes made when you were offline will be pushed to Firebase database.
To achieve this you need to use this line of code:
FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().setPersistenceEnabled(true);
Hope it helps.

So I have this huge game created with Unity, and our installers are about 700mbs in size. We first tried serving the files through a normal wordpress website and hosting services (hostpapa), but found that speeds were being throttled after a while.
I'd like suggestions on how to proceed with the distribution of my game as well as website hosting:
- Should I take the time to make my own server and deploy in Heroku maybe?
Try using Amazon S3 for your file hosting or use a service provider like GoDaddy, HostGator, or BlueHost. Here's a comparison of all hosting services here: http://www.whoishostingthis.com/compare/
Alternatively, depending on the game, you could try getting it on Steam Greenlight if you're trying to distribute the game on a wider scale. Also try asking Green Man Gaming,

Recently I've got some problems in my live site but the localhost version is fine. But live site contains some updated articles of type page/story and also comments.
So what I want to do is to move node & comment table to localhost. I'm not using comments in any custom modules.
Will moving comments & node can have any issues given some minor db settings may be different between localhost and live site versions?
Just dump the entire database. Unless you're using a module like domain access or sso you should be able to just take the entire database without it causing issues. You might want to clear the cache tables first though.
