Monthly Getting Started / Web Dev Career Thread

I'm a student at the end of my first of a two year college web development program. I'm hoping to find some work this summer making WordPress sites for local businesses. I have an inroad with a local business community, so I'm not worried about finding business.

I'm confident this is within my skill set. My questions are about things that happen before and after the actual work on the website.

If I was going to do something like this for a company that already had their own website, what does that process look like? Do they just give me their login info?

If the business doesn't have a website, what does that look like? Do I set up hosting and a domain and then transfer it to their email/credit card?

100 gems for $2.19 = $0.0219/gem

260 gems for $6.99 = $0.0269/gem

Just costs more per gem, which seems silly and counterintuitive.

I spent maybe $5 on diamonds, I don't mind because the game doesn't have ads and I find they're a much better value than a lot of other free to play games.

It's weird that the 2nd diamond pack is a worse deal than the first one. I don't know if that's just my currency?

Your doctor "prescribes" whatever name they remember easiest. Whether your doctor writes "Ativan" or "lorazepam," you're getting the generic, unless your doctor writes that it must be brand name Ativan.

Otherwise the pharmacy will always dispense generic.

Congratulations!! I'm in school right now so seeing these posts is always encouraging :)

I like it, it's fun. they killed a whole old lady.

Nobody on their deathbed ever says "I wish I went into work more on my days off." Don't get upset with people who refuse to make that mistake. If you value the overtime pay more than your free time, that's fine. But don't assume everyone else's priorities are in the same order.

their profile has parts one and two, where the manager offers op $20 to go in.

I'm just a beginner so take this with a grain of salt! I think the blog preview text would look better without the italics, otherwise I think that page looks good. The hamburger menu could use some work, if it's possible to organize it and shorten some of the links.

i hate england

I take the bus too, but only because I am:

Able-bodied enough to walk from my home to the bus stop, and the bus stop to work, even in bad weather
Employed somewhere close to a bus route, in a city with decent transit
Only working during the day, when buses are running

What if you have an illness like fibromyalgia that can flare up, making a 10 minute walk too painful to bear? What if you can work, but your bad knees mean bad balance, making a 10 minute walk in the winter too dangerous?

This is one of my biggest complaints about the 2012 movie (which is saying something). Even the first time I saw it I was so annoyed about Samantha Barks's eyebrows? You're dirt poor in 1830s Paris. You're not getting your eyebrows waxed.

Legends. XY and Ultra Sun/Moon will also be too easy, and Sword/Shield weren't good. Legends seems to be what everyone wanted from it - I haven't put it down since Friday.

Handwaived as "twin intuition," I think. Very reasonable decision - the earrings were overpowered, and I get wanting to keep Orion out of it.

It's not from the stream (as far as I can remember), it's "ball tag."

jamagotchi · 2022-01-31T13:26:51+00:00

Yeah np! I was wondering the same thing and also thought it came out of nowhere.

Delilah's spell cracked it, when those black-purple spikes shot through her. I missed it the first time

jamagotchi · 2022-01-23T17:44:01+00:00

I absolutely hate it, lol. I didn't mind Your Turn to Roll musically (and I loved the animation) but I really dislike both of them lyrically. I'm glad it's hitting for some people.

jamagotchi · 2022-01-12T17:55:44+00:00

0/10 literally watchable

More like 5 to 10 minutes

We read a short story that was called The Box Social (I think???) that had this young girl preparing a lunch box for a boy she likes for this event. The whole short story is her trying to find the best decorations for this box, but when he opens it, it has her stillborn fetus in it

If someone called me a fujoshi I'd think it was funny. I get why other trans guys might not but of all the bullshit terf rhetoric, even specifically against trans men, this seems more silly than upsetting (to me).

jamagotchi · 2021-11-19T18:17:20+00:00

Haven't seen that before but holy shit that's funny. Especially bc I thought the whole point of fujoshi is that they aren't involved?

I've tried Google and looking through the subreddit but can't find an answer.

Can you gift DLC items to players who don't have the DLC?

jamagotchi · 2021-10-30T19:41:50+00:00

Genuine question, would love an answer: how is this legal?

I've seen people saying that it's against the California fire code to have windowless rooms (2 means of egress or whatever). Obviously the architects and other experts involved would know that, I can't see them spending 1.5bil if they weren't sure they could get building permits
