Adblocker is blocking API calls to my server

I have an online shop, and one user said the item they wanted to buy wouldn't load. We figured out that if they disabled their ad blocker, the item would load. The ad blocker was blocking the post request to retrieve the item details. I tried to use a try/catch thing on the post request so I could catch the error if it happened, then display a message...

Words that help convey you agree

This is not a web development question in specific but I did not know where to ask. During my internship, I am often given a lot of information but only respond with "sounds good" and "hmm". I think at some points it may seem like I am bored because my replies are so predictable and my bosses may interpret it that way. Anyone has any suggestions to...

Do HTML forms require both CSRF token and Session token?

I am reviewing some of my Laravel projects and I see that in every form I always place a hidden CSRF token at the beginning of the form and a Session token at the bottom of the form. Does it matter where and in which order I place them in my form? When does a form require each of these tokens? Example of one of my forms (Laravel Blade template) ...

I'm working on a side project to build an online directory and am looking for insight on where to source the business data. I was considering an aggregator (like factual) but the data looks cumbersome to acquire. Any suggestions? Any help or advice would be appreciated!

I'm trying to create a minimum viable product for a small startup that I'm working on, we don't have a huge budget but if we get something up and running, we know the right people who can get it funded. A friend of mine is a data consultant, that offered to help do the due diligence for 5K, But we honestly just need something quick and dirty (for now)...
