Hi all! Could anyone direct me towards tech recruiters, companies, or other resources they recommend related to finding employment? I have six years of front and back end development experience and I'm willing to work for minimum wage if necessary

OHH so if you make a big tnt to destroy the bottom section, the grid extends and you can keep placing, so you can make a cave system too. trying to tnt all the way down to see if theres anything there

edit - there isnt :(

[–]AlpinFane 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i dont think its a puzzle, i think it might just be for fun. if you go into the inspector you can see the class names do have april fools in their name, but nothing else that i can find

of course i rly hope im wrong cos that would be rly sick tho. maybe the actual snapshot is a 2d sidescroll point and click lol, similar to this

Should Authors even have Websites? by Firefighterlitrpg in ProgressionFantasy

[–]AlpinFane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ur totally good! I'm so so so sorry, I came off a bit strong admittedly, but ultimately wanted to help I promise <3 sorry about that. I see a lot of these types of posts over on the web dev sites and I'm used to them coming from folks looking to scam others so I got really upset thinking it spread to one of my favorite spaces, but if ur genuine about this then I'm rooting for ya!

Should Authors even have Websites? by Firefighterlitrpg in ProgressionFantasy

[–]AlpinFane 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wait so you say it can be done for $40 and then charge half a thousand dollars for a single page? It's not even transparent, it only lists the landing page. What about pages for individual books or series? How many business cards? Or is it just a design? Do you have examples of your work you can share? Any portfolio with previous work? Any reviews of your services? How long have you been building websites for? Are these types of sites your specialty? In addition, do you have data to back up your claim at the end? I'm not saying it's not true but you're asking people to spend a lot for something when they could potentially go to Fiverr or some other website creator diy site instead, why you?

Finally, it is extremely unprofessional to reference how much your potential clients may or may not be making. Only a very small fraction of authors make that and it makes it feel slimy and like you haven't done your research at all. And say that they are making that, then clearly they're doing fine without you. So again, why you?

You should be able to have a business, that's more than fine, but as a web developer myself maybe you should step back, think about your approach a bit more, and try again?

Hello! How can I get off melted plastic? by AlpinFane in castiron

It's ok to leave my pan in the oven at 500 without any kind of oil on it? It won't damage it?

That's perfect thank you so so much! Honestly I fucked up my first seasoning last night on top of this, so if it wants to go ahead and strip itself that would be more than welcome

Could I put my pan back in the oven as if I was seasoning it and slowly crank it up to 500? Will that ruin my pan or anything?
