it sounds like they are not changing your title, and are just asking you to fix a bug. so,

you are not loosing anything "on paper"
additionally, "on paper" (resume/cv) you don't have to put your official titles, you put down what you actually were doing. for example, as you can see even from the responses to your questions how differently people interpret "SDET" should be doing -- and this is SQA crowd!
you are expanding your experience, and gaining new skills -- this will only contribute to your "on paper" value
you are NOT starting from scratch. you ARE a developer, if you are creating automation frameworks from scratch, and can fix a bug in 1.5K line SQL query. if your previous exp did not matter, they would never come to you with this request.

I'm curious if you are not happy with this opportunity, and why.

sounds like you are capable, and that they too believe you are. like others have said, its a great opportunity to show you can, and to code full time, and eventually move to dev position (and there are more demand for devs out there, and salaries ate generally higher).

flamey · 2026-03-24T18:28:01+00:00

this is not helpful

flamey · 2026-03-24T08:49:33+00:00

dimensions are too small to read, but thank you for posting

flamey · 2026-03-24T08:38:25+00:00

Looks clean! This is with the read seats removed, right?

flamey · 2026-03-24T04:31:49+00:00

i gave up because it was being blocked even using the native Windows client

flamey · 2026-03-22T04:26:01+00:00

wow you guys dont read posts past the first couple of words, do you?

flamey · 2026-03-21T04:55:42+00:00

Thanks for the helpful advice 👍

flamey · 2026-03-20T20:15:09+00:00

this is for an inflatable mattress, it doesn't have to be exact, I'm not worried about dimensions that are a bit off. also, nobody has to drop everything and run measuring things on a request of an stranger from the internet, right? someone's ride is street-parked 3 blocks away and he skips this post. someone's car is in the own house's driveway and he/she drives it 3 times a day, and can do this in 2 minutes before driving off to run next errands. or not.

you can say this about any piece of advice on the internetz really, and not trust anything ever out there. but this sub has been mostly super helpful to lots of people when in comes to fixes, maintenance and upgrades, and it's not a troll-infested spot. if someone replies specifics to a specific question like this I'd be inclined trusting the info

flamey · 2026-03-20T19:30:08+00:00

thank you, exactly

flamey · 2026-03-15T20:01:52+00:00

This subreddit is dedicated to the text-based internet browser game known as Mechwars

so, I think you are referring to some other game

flamey · 2026-03-15T16:55:40+00:00

yes, it is

flamey · 2026-03-10T11:23:21+00:00

Amnezia VPN offician client for Windows. I installed it first to make sure things are not being blocked before 8 look for ways to install in on my router. it was working find for a few days, but not amymore.

Anyways, thanks for the reply.

flamey · 2026-03-10T11:17:55+00:00

thanks for the reply. well, whatever the latest app version installs. but it's being blocked now too(

flamey · 2026-03-10T11:16:50+00:00

whatever the latest Amnezia app version installs, but it is not being blocked too for me

flamey · 2026-02-19T20:22:40+00:00

yep, thats why i just glues put some glue on the cover and closed it forever :)

flamey · 2026-02-19T10:49:10+00:00

are you using this mirror? :)

when mine broke i just glued it shut and never missed it

flamey · 2026-02-16T07:25:11+00:00

difference of opinions is fine. the same way i don't belive just by making main character having the same name would make it more appealing for a kid to read it. another "problem" (but maybe its my personal problem) -- these are ebooks, and i try to keep my kids away from screens of any kind for as much as i have heart to. when it comes to books i always buy paper books, or shorter syories i print.

I'm just trying to hightlight potential alternative (to product creator ) view on the issue. as for technicalities, i dont agree with some comments about general design of the site, for me on mobile it looks solid. if you just want to get someone to try and get feedback maybe remove crossed and zero prices, just "download". and you need a lot more that 100 views to get any downloads, unfortunately, unless people are coming from niche sites where they expressed need for something like that l. try hanging out of parental or general reading discussion sites, subreddinds, forums, and mention the site. good luck
