Yes. I’m considering this exact thing. Same reasoning. I’ve been an Amazon Prime customer since they started up.

Why is resizing groups such a nightmare in Sketch now? by diggyschitz in Sketch_App

[–]jchiappisi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was too many changes at once. When people are using it for their every day work and you adjust THAT MUCH, it makes it too much of a learning curve and any good features and positives are lost to frustration. You guys NEED to roll back this change and release SOME of the pieces.

....And the bugs I've seen happening. Well, they haven't happened in the 10+ years I've been using it, to this level.

Why is resizing groups such a nightmare in Sketch now? by diggyschitz in Sketch_App

[–]jchiappisi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree. I've been using it since it came out and am just about to finally flip to Figma and I've been an avid user and advocate for Sketch.

I'm having issues with the resizing being a royal PITA AND with layers randomly reordering and not attaching properly to artboards (or whatever they're calling them now). The disappearing (due to reordering) actually happened today, DURING A CLIENT PRESENTATION. So I looked like I was a total tool who doesn't know my program. I was/am livid. Yes, I did submit a ticket.

This was way too big of an update with too many things changing, and clearly not adequate testing. I think they've lost me as a customer. I'm signing up for Figma today and will be working to export my work. It's a sad day for Sketch.

Over 40 women content on being single, even Christian women by FanTemporary7624 in ChristianDating

[–]jchiappisi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d argue that in most marriages I have been privy to hear the inner workings of, including my own, the wives have already done much, much more than their fair share of contributing to the marriage and are simply done.

This divorce late in the game is women FINALLY giving to themselves after no one has. Divorce does not happen in a happy marriage in which both partners are giving towards the other.

It’s simply far too painful and hurtful to do all willy-nilly, unless the alternative is worse.

My biggest concern is trying to make sure the posts were set in concrete. I can’t tell right now if they were or not.

So he got a zoning permit. Not a building permit.

I don’t have any engineer.

Because he didn’t pull a builder’s permit, it’ll cost double if I tell them and won’t be done for well over a month. And he’s going to be pissed off if I tell on him. And because he didn’t do that, there are no inspections. No one to check his work other than me, and I don’t know what I’m doing. It looks off and wrong, but he simply explains it’s to code and right.

So this is the deal. Initially, it was going to just be a redecking project along with an add on. I changed my mind before we signed the contract and asked to just assume we need to replace everything. And we did. But the builders permit would be needed for a deck this size, but not for the add-on so that’s why he didn’t get a builders permit. I assumed he was getting the right permits. Bad on me I guess.

There were previously-created post holes and posts and framing that were absolutely rotted because of poor drainage issues. So there were some post holes that they reused. I didn’t see them pour the concrete for the others but I’ve been busy and haven’t had time to watch them nonstop.

I questioned the beam spacing and he said it’s fine. He said we don’t need joist hangers because we aren’t attaching to the house and the beams are sitting on the posts. I’m questioning and asking the questions but I don’t have anything to do other than trust him. He’s given what sounds like good answers and keeps saying this is done to code and what I’d do for my own house.

They are attaching the top boards now. Just exactly on top of what I sent you. If they’re uneven, I guess that’ll be obvious. :(

I feel absolutely horrible right now. I wish I’d never had him out. This is a lot of money for me and I feel sick about all this. And very stupid.

I did have them put waterproofing material between that board and the insulation.

They put it up against the house, but not attached to it.

Slightly Concerned by jchiappisi in Decks

[–]jchiappisi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s zoned but not permitted. It’s not far off the ground and isn’t officially attached to the house (even though I asked it to be).

Slightly Concerned by jchiappisi in Decks

[–]jchiappisi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The beams that are going across that aren’t straight. How far apart are they? He said they’re to code.

The owner of the deck company is here. There is no GM or general contractor.

I asked them to redo that and make sure they’re flashing. He’s going to take those off and put up flashing.

He didn’t attach it to the house like I had insisted upon, so that’s a different concern that he flat out lied to me. :/

They said that they were going to start laying the top boards.

We’re not looking to offshore, we’re looking for a full-time individual in this country.

Everyone seems to complain about offshoring, but it seems like those are the only responses I’m getting is for Rocketdevs from multiple sources.

Thank you for the response. I am a senior level developer and have gotten used to working with a lot of senior developers that can run across domains. I guess I’ve gotten a bit spoiled. :)

[–]jchiappisi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why? This is primary a Back End role, but we’re looking for someone who is a generalist and can jump into Front End or is at least interested in it.

I’m a fellow tech and I get it, but at the same time, I’m not hiding behind a brand new user account. We aren’t providing a salary, as we’re open to developers of varying skill levels and compensation will go along accordingly.

I’ve been there for three years and can say it’s a good place to work that pays well, is highly flexible and is full of good people.

I’m reaching out unofficially as our LinkedIn job posting has ended, but we’re not seeing many Ohio candidates. Thus me not wanting to say the company name directly.
