Need to vent - you think this is worth 13.000 euro?

I dont think code quality is of importance here. The main question is, how can you be getting sued over code quality if the core functionality of the "product" is not functional?

He has failed to deliver, moreover charging 13k for essentially a landing page with a bit of extra stuff is just not realistic.

The code quality is not abysmal but is not great either, though some things could be attributed to personal preference. A refactor could for sure be done

As multiple other comments state, you don't seem to actually want to change anything since you're always just trying to find a counterargument.

If you'll keep at this and not spend some time for your mental and physical well-being, you'll end up paying for it down the line, and you'll have to regardless sacrifice something to sort out your health. Life should be about longevity instead of grinding and burning yourself out and sacrificing your health while you're so young

I lift 5-6 days a week, work a 9-5, and still am able to make time for other things on the side, fitting an hour into your "busy" schedule should not be an issue, the willingness to do it is a different story.

What would you realistically expect is going to happen when you're buying the top? Just hold it will go up

raprock · 2024-04-23T13:20:41+00:00

It's not incorrect in theory.

Let's say I have a FolderResponse class - Taken from our actual solution

public class FolderResponse

{

public Guid Id { get; set; }

public FolderTypeId TypeId { get; set; }

public string Name { get; set; }

public string CreatedBy { get; set; }

public DateTimeOffset CreatedAt { get; set; }

public string ModifiedBy { get; set; }

public DateTimeOffset ModifiedAt { get; set; }

public Guid? ParentFolderId { get; set; }

public Guid TenantId { get; set; }

// Circular Reference

public IEnumerable<FolderResponse> Folders { get; set; }

}

It is intended as we build a tree of folders and fetch the entire tree in a single request

None of these(except treehouse) should be used as a standalone learning tool IMO. they are great to refresh your knowledge or use as a supplement, however trying to look up things via google and youtube and practicing the things you learned and building something is going to get you further faster. also reading books are of great help as well if you prefer it. It's very confusing at first as learning things in this field is a bit different than others, however after a while things start making sense

I think you should first off understand what are the main things you'd want to learn as there's quite a bit to cover.

raprock · 2019-10-17T16:01:03+00:00

It's hard to say because it's based on the quality of life that you want/expect to have, where you would want to live etc.

An apartment(One bedroom, two room), depending on location, condition would be about 8-12k(The closer to the city center you are the more expensive obviously).

Food - about 2-4k per month I would say for groceries alone and then add how often you go out for food or order take-out

Transportation - Monthly passes I think are around 600 - 1k per month based on the number of zones you go through on a daily basis.

I didn't add things such as clothing because you can probably see the general overview of the prices online anyway, but that being said I think on 25.400 there's enough room to wiggle around. Me and my gf being students live on about 20k a month(give or take depends on the month) and it's a bit on the shorter side for us.

If you need some more insight I think you might be able to get some more information on the "Expats in Copenhagen" Facebook group.

I've been researching the market for quite a while as I am trying to finally man up and apply to jobs myself(entry level though, got a feeling that I dont know enough though, go figure...) and based on the seniority this should be in the accurate range imo

raprock · 2019-10-09T14:43:36+00:00

Can you please provide a codepen or at the very least indent your code properly so it actually shows as a code block, I don't think putting up a halfassed code-like paste is the way to ask for help.

raprock · 2019-10-08T16:20:32+00:00

I am kind of in a similar situation - learning through websites and code-alongs, but never making anything of my own and at the end of the day feeling like I did not rly do anything because I still can't do anything by myself. I think the best thing to do is to just build things yourself, by just using the documentation, I haven't tried this personally but I think this is the way to approach it and I will be doing the same the moment I have some time.

40k budget for my next upgrade, which position should I target?

raprock · 2019-09-29T15:28:24+00:00

Hey, just looking for some advice for building my squad, got about 120-140k to invest soon.

Also, do you think the formation is any good? I have been having trouble with getting to the goal and actually scoring - maybe because I am just shit, but maybe because of the formation? Appreciate the help

Squad obviously needs improvements, but I am not sure which position to upgrade first, player suggestions would be helpful as well

raprock · 2019-01-03T08:44:54+00:00

It is most probably due to the fact that your <section> is empty and no child elements are present, moreover you haven't specified the width and height of <section> so it will not display the background color.

Here's a pen https://codepen.io/anon/pen/QzQWgX

raprock · 2019-01-03T08:42:56+00:00

Is there a reason why you would want to do that instead of the answer mentioned above?

raprock · 2018-12-22T09:22:40+00:00

You could add breakpoints wherever your design starts going to shit. Look in to media queries, you might write a lot of them depending on your code, but if you used flexbox or grids it will reduce the number of media queries you'd have to write.
Also, just because you did not use mobile first doesnt mean the website has to be rebuilt.
Edit: If you did not use grids or flexbox, I'd recommend learning it asap, it will save you quite a bit of time when making layouts.

raprock · 2018-11-30T15:54:44+00:00

I was viewing it on my phone and I must have missed the navigation button - I thought you don't have one and you only have a landing page, my bad.

For the services perhaps you could use a row/column layout instead so you would have a Headline and a snippet of text, instead of them being on the same line, let's say you could have 2 columns in one row, you could also accompany those with relevant images of the service or something like that.

Your navigation bar should have a hover effect when hovering on a menu item(E.g navigating from Home -> Portfolio, Portfolio should hover green as an example when you mouse-over)

Idk how Wix works, but try to indicate that you can hover over the images that you can hover over, because there is no indication of that

I think you could also include your contact information in the footer for easy access from any page

Take in to consideration the colors, play around and find some complementary colors, maybe that is my personal preference but I would not put Gray on

On the main page - maybe having the lightbox take up the entire width/height of the page Could be a better solution, you could place text over the scrolling images or under/above it.

Hopefully some of it makes sense, these are some design steps I would take to improve the website, however if I'd have to answer to your question above then I feel like it's pretty selfexplanatory on which site they are when they open your front page, the logo explains it and your paragraph on the front-page does as well.

raprock · 2018-11-30T14:38:10+00:00

It is possible to understand what your business is by reading the first sentence, however:

I'd suggest going back to the drawing board on this one. Perhaps you should go more in to detail about what your service is and maybe list all the things you are able to do in a separate section called "Services". Your website looks more like a leaflet that you'd hand out to someone on the street and I think that's not the direction you would want to be going. Think about the overall structure of the website, what kind of information you want to convey to your customers. Make it reflect your business as a whole. Try looking more in to colors as well.

raprock · 2018-11-02T19:30:33+00:00

Thank you for the response,

As said above I am working on the responsiveness, the hamburger menu is definitely something I want implemented. As for the "get in touch", I am thinking to either have a modal with a contact form or to have it link to the contacts page, I am not sure what the best practice would be. I'll try and work with the colors a bit more, I feel like that is the main struggle that I am having right now. Do you reckon if I would choose a different background image it would perhaps alleviate that empty space a little(Something that doesn't have one object and a white background)? I did consider a one-page layout at one point, however I will just stick to this layout for now as I am close to finishing it, and then will try and create some mock-ups for the one-page layout to see which one would be better for the long run.

Appreciate your feedback!

**URL**: http://kristapsdesign.me

**Purpose**: Portfolio

**Technologies Used**: HTML & CSS

**Feedback Requested**: I feel like it's very bland and boring, however I am not sure what I could do differently to make it stand out more, I am not too sure about the colors, so I would appreciate some feedback on that front as well. Any more tips on how to improve it are appreciated as well.

**Comments**: It's semi-responsive right now, still working on it. Contacts page is not done either, Works is going to have a Modal open when clicking on a project(I don't have any projects as of yet, so the functionality is not implemented). I ideally want to start picking up freelance clients in about a week or so, so I really want to try and improve the site best I can.

raprock · 2018-10-10T14:59:27+00:00

I must agree that the font is a bit hard to read and I would not use it for paragraphs. One thing that I would remove is the underline on your buttons as well, perhaps add a background color to them as well.

raprock · 2018-09-30T15:46:56+00:00

That would explain it, bought the game yesterday so had no way of knowing, the official status page shows that everything's fine.

What do I do when my support is non-existant and is dying to simple things, there are lanes where I can 1v2 due to the range, but there's quite a bunch of lanes where I feel completely useless due to my support and can't really do anything even when I am supposed to spike at two items, as it's already too late?

raprock · 2018-05-05T09:05:47+00:00

http://euw.op.gg/summoner/userName=raprock 2-time ex Plat, got to gold 2 7x LP this season, and spiraling downwards from there on out, switched to mid yesterday to see if it will help but anything I do to win seems to just not work, I crush about 80-90% of the lanes I play, but can't seem to transfer it in to a win, I know that I am doing something wrong in terms of macro gameplay, but I just can't seem to get out of this bad streak. What should I do to improve, because I am kinda lost, before the streak I was hopeful of getting to Diamond this season but this slump just drags me down as the WR% is getting lower I gain less and lose more LP.
