@iKlsR, @CharlesL, @David, @ideasman42, @gandalf3 It's been a while! How's this community coming along? Wow, so many memories.

@GiantCowFilms Managers and other leadership roles pay way better and will always be in demand :)
David
2:26 AM
@DanielPendergast oh wow. it has been a while. good to see you around.
BSE is doing great. a lot of LQish questions from noobs, and even more unanswered; but we are doing very well.

<why the silence?>
TARDIS Maker
@Rahul2001 People not really having much to say...
It's sad...
This room used to be super awesome and active
Rahul2001
@TARDISMaker I do seem to recall that it was more active when I dropped in a few times last year and before that...
TARDIS Maker
Yeah
Mostly people are more busy now
VRM
For example I'm 1.5hrs behind on my work day already . . . RIP
Rahul2001
Meh, I got my first job today
It was... weird, to say the very least
VRM
5:38 PM
Congrats!
Rahul2001
Thanks :)
Someone paid me USD 10 to create a calculator for a vaping website :P
VRM
haha
It's all up from here I guess lol
Rahul2001
They saw one on a website, asked me to create something identical :P
VRM
That's a bit for $10 tbh
They got a good deal
Rahul2001
Yeah, they did
But to build a reputation on the website you need to start low
VRM
5:41 PM
yeah
You using Indeed/Upwork or what?
Rahul2001
I'll see if they offer a bonus though, that'd be nice
@VRM Upwork
Scalia
o/. hola people. qué tal?
VRM
Me too
Rahul2001
@VRM Cool! How's your experience been on it?
VRM
Very good so far, only really gotten one gig but it's long-term
the 5% cut is annoying but understandable
TARDIS Maker
5:43 PM
@VRM Yeah, $10 is definately pretty low...
Maybe not for just html + css, but once you get the rest of the logic in, it's probably worth more than twice that...
Scalia
i make $10 for cleaning greasetraps at restaraunts...
Rahul2001
@TARDISMaker It was mostly copying JS from another site and recoloring, so I don't actually mind if I get a decent review/rating
Took under an hour
TARDIS Maker
@Rahul2001 So cheating :P
But sure
Rahul2001
@TARDISMaker No, they said they wanted something "identical"
VRM
Ah, that makes it more reasonable. Work smarter, not harder as they say lol
TARDIS Maker
5:45 PM
@Rahul2001 Sure, I'm mostly joking
Rahul2001
Man, I really need to learn bootstrap properly though, looks like a lot of people are paying decent amounts for responsive websites...
@TARDISMaker ;p
TARDIS Maker
@Rahul2001 I don't like bootstrap...
I find it to be a pain to use
Rahul2001
@TARDISMaker Neither do I, but it's in demand
TARDIS Maker
But the question is can you do the same thing that bootstrap does from scratch?
VRM
I used to be pretty good at web development, gotten old and rusty on that subject though
Rahul2001
5:47 PM
@TARDISMaker Yeah... I just use CSS smartly + veiwport to deliver perfect mobile interfaces
@TARDISMaker I can, but I don't think these people will accept it, and it's more work anyway...
TARDIS Maker
Okay, not the kind of people I want to work with then...
Rahul2001
In all honesty, I prefer backend PHP, or Windows scripting
TARDIS Maker
I feel like doing it from scratch would be more worth it
VRM
There are a lot of places where the people in charge of the money don't understand the project, so there are a ton of arbitrary rules you need to work around
Rahul2001
@TARDISMaker It is if it's your own website, you often end up with something that performs way better
But the effort isn't worth the amount these guys are willing to pay
@VRM exactly
TARDIS Maker
5:49 PM
Forcing yourself to use bootstrap is really just going to make the site slower and bigger
Okay
As I already said, not the type of people I want to work for
Rahul2001
Yeah, me neither, but I could do with the funds, so I'm willing to do work as long as the guys aren't too picky
TARDIS Maker
Okay, sure
Rahul2001
> Need an experienced web developer to work on a marketplace similar to etsy.com, redbubble.com and a bit of eBay/amazon
Budget: $5
:/
TARDIS Maker
That is not practical in any way
Especially when you say experienced...
VRM
@Rahul2001 hahahahahaha
$5 for 5 minutes of advice maybe
TARDIS Maker
5:54 PM
^^
Rahul2001
;p
Also, I fail to understand why people design websites in
Photoshop
.
TARDIS Maker
@Rahul2001 As opposed to what?
Sketch?
HTML + CSS?
Rahul2001
Uh, you got me there
But... idk, people who don't do WebDev shouldn't be designing the website anyway...
TARDIS Maker
Design is hard
I think that Designers should have some understanding of web technologies, but should specialize in it
Rahul2001
@TARDISMaker Agreed
TARDIS Maker
6:01 PM
But developers absolutely should not be designing websites
At least when there are enough resources to hire a proper designer
For smaller scale things it's okay
Rahul2001
Hm. Fair enough
TARDIS Maker
See, we care too much about how easy it is :P
VRM
@Rahul2001 Web design and web development are completely distinct disciplines
TARDIS Maker
Designers try to make it easy to navigate and use
VRM
A designer should be designing, and they like photoshop :)
TARDIS Maker
6:03 PM
And then on top of it make it look nice
Rahul2001
lol, fair enough :)
VRM
Also it is actually very well fitted with tools that help with quick UI prototyping in my experience
There are other ways, but it is pretty common
TARDIS Maker
Yeah
Sketch is gaining a lot of traction though
But they need to branch off of OSX
VRM
yup
TARDIS Maker
@Rahul2001 btw, have you tried other backend platforms?
Like ruby or node?
Rahul2001
6:05 PM
@TARDISMaker Have been planning to, but haven''t gotten around to it yet
TARDIS Maker
Okay
Rahul2001
Done a bit of python+Django
TARDIS Maker
Okay, sure
I've meant to look at that, but I've been happy enough with node
I used PHP for a little while, but then I switched to node and it felt like a breath of fresh air
(btw, a disclaimer, I'm literally a 16 year old in my parents basement)
(So when I talk like I know what I'm talking about, I probably know a lot less than I might try to sound like I know :P)
Rahul2001
@TARDISMaker I remember, I'm the same age, just don't have a basement... :)
@TARDISMaker Very true for me too :P
TARDIS Maker
Awesome, glad we're on the same page :D
Scalia
6:10 PM
@TARDISMaker i thought you were 17 now
TARDIS Maker
@Scalia Nope
I've got almost a year to go first :P
Scalia
oh! ok
aw you're just a wee fetus. :)
TARDIS Maker
:P
Scalia
idk how much it means coming from me (lol) but at least online, you act very mature. gj
Scalia
6:29 PM
what should be the objective of the game. i have the interchangeable head script up and running
Rahul2001
Goodnight folks :)
TARDIS Maker
6:47 PM
@Scalia Yeah, people seem to think that about me in person too
Who can blame them, my voice dropped dramatically when I was like 11
I went to summer camp, got a cold, my voice got scratchy, and seemed to lower, and then it never got higher again...
:P
@Scalia Idk...
Scalia
7:08 PM
@TARDISMaker weird. I wonder why that happened
VRM
@TARDISMaker be thankful it dropped at all, lots of buff dudes have the most immature sounding voices. It's hilarious
TARDIS Maker
@VRM :D
Yeah
It was fun being the most mature sounding 11 year old around me... :P
VRM
haha
TARDIS Maker
@Scalia I think I just hit puberty really early
I was taller than most kids my age until like two years ago
And now I'm a few inches shorter than most of them
VRM
RIP
I'm already about as tall as I want to be, six feet plus a few inches is the max comfortable height imo
TARDIS Maker
7:18 PM
That's where I want to be
I'm about 5'8" right now...
I need to grow at least four inches, hopeful six...
:P
VRM
you have a good chance, 5+ years of growing
Scalia
yeah, but why would it stay scratchy after your cold?
@VRM heÅ› 16? i dont think he's gonna be growing till he's 21 lol
VRM
Do some research
Scalia
i think i stopped growing around 17...
VRM
As fast, yes. You usually gain another inch or so in the years from 18 to 21
Scalia
7:21 PM
height wise at least
@VRM oh
hmmm
TARDIS Maker
@Scalia No, it didn't stay scratchy, my voice just didn't change back
Scalia
ok
@TARDISMaker ah
i was thinking you had a voice that permanantly sounded like a cold
TARDIS Maker
Okay
It probably did for a little while
Partially because I still looked like an 11 year old... :P
3 hours later…
Scalia
10:52 PM
@VRM how tall are you? 6 ft on the dot
Scalia
11:03 PM
@TARDISMaker @X-27
pasteall.org/blend/index.php?id=46929
move with wasd to one of the tings and right click on it
Scalia
11:34 PM
does anyon know if its normal to be unable to enter negative values for scale in the uv editor when snapping is enabled or is that a bug?
