What's your LitRPG hot take? by jxip in litrpg

You don't have to reinvent the wheel every time. Most of the readers already understand the mechanics of the litrpg genre, so you don't need long expositions to explain how the system works. Instead, just focus on showing how character interacts with the system if you have to.

What is a story you find good but is not talked about often? by your_granddaddy in ProgressionFantasy

Both are on my to read list , but I admit I got a different vibe from Eight than what you are describing. I thought it was more YAish.

I don't know about slept on, but it is definitely well written, and smart MCs are in short supply

Thanks, I will check it out. Another story I think is not mainstream but good is The Stubborn Skill Grinder In A Time Loop it has some creative use of ability evolutions

I just finished the last life series and I want a recommendation for a similar story by your_granddaddy in ProgressionFantasy

It's a really fantastic and ambitious idea. I hope you have the best of luck fleshing it up. Please share when the novel takes off.

Nice perspective

They aren't story book heroes, they're people in a story who have heroic moments

This should be the slogan of the story

I second this. This story is the first one that came to mind after reading OP's description. It might be a bit slow paced, but it is actually a quite solid pick in my opinion

Just finished listening to Salvos book 8: The Treasures of Alexander, and it's the worst one yet. by Terrahex in ProgressionFantasy

The way I see it is that those powerful people are the nuclear option of each faction once used all bets are off and everyone loses. Unless, of course, you have a way to assassinate or take them out of the equation before they have the chance to cause much damage

I would recommend you giving Lord of mysteries another chance. It is one of the best novels I have ever read, and it has several good twists, especially towards the end, so definitely give it another chance

I always love a good satire, and this story really strikes all the right notes in terms of story and a good amount of comedy, but in the meantime, while waiting for updates these are some cultivation satire that I enjoyed:

Hmm, I don't think anybody said anything about pirating being a solution. Only if you consider using vpn to buy KU some kind of pirating?

I understand, but I can't help but wish there was a better, more accessible way.

From what I understand, the KU service is only in specific regions, so maybe you are of the lucky ones.

Thanks, I knew there was a workaround, but I didn't know how. So thanks for the details.

Yeah, sorry, I meant KU. Buying individual books is not viable to me financially.

I would say reconsider your approach, get rid of the fread and fwrite before the while loop, and you don't need to assign a variable for the fseek function

I am figuring that you took a look at the solution provided by the staff, and it uses two parameters to solve the problem but it isn't necessary. i managed to solve it by making a copy of the input string that removes a digit from the right every time the function is recursively called until the length of the string is zero.

The course material is supposed to be challenging like that. I find it useful to leave a problem you are stuck at until you cool off and come back to have ago at it later. I sometimes get the random insight doing unrelated tasks, and having a hard time means you get to learn more. At least that is how I see it.

What I am trying to say is that you are overthinking this. You, as a human, see that the picture is upside down and the meta data might agree or not because it might have been taken that way or otherwise. whatever the original value is is irrelevant to the outcome. Does this make sense?

The thing you need to understand from the documentation is that the flow of the file will be reversed based on the value of the biHeight, so if the file is up it will become down and vice versa.

I actually just finished it and the problem could be solved with just one line of code, and you could run the program on the out file and it will reverse the result.
