A month after most California fast food workers started earning at least $20 an hour, economists say it’s too early to determine industry impact. While some workers report improved quality of life, others see cuts in work hours and less income as employers adjust to more expensive payroll.
I'm doing interviews, and I wanted to get an idea of what other people are doing. Say a position offers a pay range between 50-65k. In my interview with HR (first interview), should I try to provide a more narrow range? for instance, " Based on my skills and experience, I'd expect a range between 56-60k" Or should I just tell them the range offered is good for me and let them actually provide an offer? This is of course assumes the entire range is acceptable to me. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

A reminder to my colleagues about a document called the U.S. Constitution and, specifically, the First Amendment.
I feel like hidden rooms aren't very transparently shown in the game. Currently there are usually 2-3 hidden rooms in each area, with an additional hidden room for every floor that has "many secrets". This is all totally fine, except that its sort of hard to identify them, even as someone that's rather familiar with what they are. By identify, I don't mean to search for them, but to actually identify whether a room is a hidden room or not.
My suggestion would be that all hidden rooms share some kind of identifier. some suggestions would be:
uniquely colored door that, even if burned, has a different color so you'll always know that was an entrance to a hidden room
Uniquely colored flooring
Uniquely colored walls
Indications in the logs when you step into an area or floor ("you have found 1 of 2 or 3 hidden rooms in this area" "There is one discovered hidden room on this floor")
Hidden rooms can affect your rankings score so allows for easier ways to track that would be welcomed.
What are your opinions?

I'm currently a Technical account manager at a company and I'm uncertain where to go from here. I currently make 150k, with some of my more experienced coworkers making 200k. I'd like to apply to other companies to make more money.
But I'm wondering, is staying in this sort of role good long term?
Some additional information on what I do, since I understand this role varies company by company:
We interact a lot with clients post sales making technical recommendations on the products of ours to use.
We sometimes help direct clients with integration, or do it ourselves which involves using our REST API.
We also sometimes have to configure and customize our web application front end, which involves making changes to its HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
We would sometimes also need to investigate and deploy bug fixes for production.
Now, looking at potential jobs, I'm seeing Technical Account manager, Solutions Engineer, and customer engineer roles that seem really similar to what I'm doing now, paying about 150k average, maybe even a bit more. I'm uncertain what kind of progression there is though.
On the other hand, as a software engineer (which,despite having a degree in CS, i have no work experience doing, other than what I'm doing now), it feels like there's an, obvious to me, career progression. The issue is that it appears that the average pay for what I think I could work as (junior/entry level software engineer) is closer to 100 - 120k.
Should I keep trying to stay in my current job type? What sort of new positions should I aim for to make more money?
Should I bite the bullet and go into software engineering, losing some short term income in exchange for a better career path with better pay in the future? Should I be applying for entry level positions? or staff/intermediate level Software engineering roles?
any advice is appreciated!
