I am Computer Science Student
Yesterday I asked question to my classmates, what is Linux,

here's some(non-forgettable) replays:

3- An App
2- A Soap
1- Game character

and most (suggest me..a word) :

0- Linux Crackers(Food)

and that guy sent me this..

Some ideas for variable names. Thank me later :))

1. bool sheet;
2. int entionally;
3. char mander;
4. double penetration;
5. string cheese;
6. long schlong;

How everyone uses stackoverflow:
1. Work on some project
2. Spot a bug
3. Try to solve the bug and fail.
4. Write a question for SO.
5. Post question on SO.
6. Get the answer and some points.

How I use stackoverflow:
1. Work on some project
2. Find a bug
3. Try to fix the bug and fail
4. Write a question on SO
5. Get scared that I might be downvoted.
6. Spend 45 minutes optimizing the structure of the question.
7. Try additional tests to cover all possible scenarios.
8. Still scared to click post.
9. Scrap everything and restart line by line writing further details of each step in your question.
10. Find the bug myself.
11. Click cancel on the question that took me 3+ hours to write.
12. Cry.

1. Go to office!
2. Make coffee!!
3. Start computer.
4. Get to wo.."Windows must restart in order to install some updates".
4. 3 hours later => "Working on updates 68% n/ Don't turn off your PC. This will take a while."
4. Fuck this, I'm going home.

I miss Linux...

Fathers day today, my 6 year old passes me some presents.

First 3 opened.

Devrant cap
Devrant stressball
Devrant stickers

Yes son! (Well obviously, technically it was my wife) I assume she must have seen me on the app :)

I've seen some people on here mention a show called silicon valley, so I thought I would check it out. I started yesterday... I'm already in the middle of season 3, I didn't sleep much last night...

1. Search on google for an answer
2. Find someone asking the same question on some forum
3. See the question has an answer
4. The answer is "Please search yourself before asking. Thread locked."

This happens too often..

"Hmmm... I'll just fix this one small thing here... shouldn't take long. And then its time for some gaming!"

Still coding, wtf is wrong with me

The Dutch referendum about the new mass surveillance law is a go, fuck yeah!

Also, due to a some stuff, a delay is postponing the start of the mass surveillance to May next year.

A little more time to setup secure stuffs :3

When you hack someone's computer and you notice that they are hacking someone else computer...and you just sit there to see how they do it. #learning

WTF! over 5000+ attempts in less than 3 hours. Some bitch trying to hijack me machine!
Am i the only one experiencing this shit?

If only it was this simple. Hi all, im new, I found this app while window shopping the play store, after reading some of the daily post, I think im gonna stay :) i wish your code the best. *returns to staring at compiling error for the next 3 hours*

A story about the shittiest boss I ever had.

We were a consulting company, I was leading the dev team. We're on the phone with a client who needs a change to the software we're maintaining for them.

Boss (mouthes at me): How long?
I (hold up 3 fingers, mouth back): 3 days
Boss (to client): You have it by tomorrow. *hangs up*
I: What the actual fuck?
Boss: You said 3 days, 3 times 8h is 24h, better order some pizza and Red Bulls for your guys.

He pulled stunts like this all the time and yet genuinely seemed surprised when I quit.

Best computer/hacking/tech TV and movies?

I'll start the list with some of my favorites.

1. Hackers
2. The Net
3. Jumpin Jack Flash
4. Antitrust
5. Swordfish
6. Wargames
7. Mr Robot

Anyone else?

"So what do you do?"
"I am a software engineer"

3 most frequent conversation routes

1. "I have some great app ideas maybe you could help me..."
2. "My computer/phone crashes frequently, what is wrong with it?..."
3. "so how many software/games/mobile apps have you developed?..."

After 3 hours of trying to implement a feature, I’ve moved from 10 errors to 7 errors!
At least I’m doing some progress, I guess... 🤷‍♂️

My setup at work as a juniour dev. Got a month ago a 3rd monitor (the left), because I'm working on some backend services and had to test them with a touchscreen. Now only the frontend dev and I have 3 monitors in the whole company 😁

Got some new toys today! A Raspberry Pi 3 and a Arduino starter pack. Any suggestions on what I should do with it?

I contantly keep forgetting to turn on my music. It's like:
*open youtube*
"Wait let me just do this thing real quick"
*alt-tab to ide, start coding*
*get in the zone, coding intensifies*
3 hours later...
"Oh yeah let's turn on some music"
Rinse and repeat...

Some people assume that since I am techy that I have a really good laptop or setup.

Nope.

Just have my raspberry pi 3 as my main computer. Go Linux🔥🔥

Well. Here is the story.
Started making a React app a week ago with a friend; his job was styling some jsx i "already" wrote. hmmmm. and i just pulled his last commit.
file [index.scss]
3 lines:
body {
font-size: 16px;
}
😐😐😐😐😐

First time showing my GitHub to some professionals, instant laughter and telling me that .gitignore exists... 3 years ago and I still feel embarrassed that happened.

Give some personality to your CMD!
1. Make a file called i.cmd and add the following text to it:
@echo off
echo me too
2. Move the file to somewhere in the system path (e.g. C:\Windows)
3. Enjoy!

why i like c#?
1- easiest way to build a program with good GUI. just put some XAML code and it's done.
2- I love syntax of c#. it has types. god I hate php XD
3- C# is also fast and strong.
4- don't forget the .net framework that has almost every thing I need.
3- A god like IDE, the Visual Studio.

You can kill me for this...
I've one old printer and and I wanted to print some pages. So I did following steps

1. Plugged printers power cable and turned it on.
2. Connected included cable to printer.
3. Opened PDF and tried to print
4. Did step 3 for fucking 20minutes

What went wrong?
I fucking forgot to connect USB cable to my fucking laptop. FML...

1. Finally publish some of my open source projects.
2. Career progression (move to more of a tech leadership role).
3. Stop taking shit from managers who know nothing about code.

I am an idiot. I wrote some 100+ lines of code months ago and I took another look today and it seems like it could've done the same thing in 3. Fuckity fuck fuck.

My plan:
1. Draw the logo in paper with black marker
2. Scan with the infamous printer
3. Load in GIMP
4. Edit some parts
5. Put some colors
6. Print or save as image file
7. Use everywhere

As I start to do step 2, I noticed something VERY wrong.

Today am migrating an app from Swift 2 to Swift 3.
Brace yourselves for some murder rants.

Our team changed to Linux about 3 years ago already and I can see some of them struggling to insert some commands when I'm talking to them.

How the fuck do you struggle to `cd` into a fucking directory?

Ok,ok... I've linuxing full time for 8 years already, I understand I've been through this... But come on! If some one said to me on day ONE "dude, you can cd /full/path/of/fucking/whatever" or " ~/ means home" I would be doing it from day one.

Probably I'm overreacting but wtf dudes? 3 years... Step up your game.

need some stickers for my new Raspberry pi 3 😊

Who also has some Raspberry Pi's?
& for what are you using yours? 🙂
I use my Raspberry Pi 3 for ownCloud & my Raspberry Pi 2 for PiHole.

How many guys have experienced this?

Heard this from a supposed Linux user

Other dev: I have been using Linux for 3 years I'm really good at it.
Then sees me use "cd" and "mv" commands
Other dev: wow that's some complex stuff
Me: 😂😂😂

True story

Just a 60 year old teachers desk and some awesome screens....MacBook pro with 3 external for work with a gaming rig when 5.30 rolls around....

"I'll get to this at some point."

- 3 years ago

Getting closer and closer to my dream setup!

What I want: powerful enough computer for some general gaming + IDE + shitloads of terminals with 6 screens running a Linux distro.

What I have: powerful enough computer which can run quite some games and handle my IDE + shitloads of terminals. Runs Linux already but still have to order 3 screens.

Nearly there 💜

Mood:
- Currently coughing my lungs out, I'm not working tomorrow to keep my colleagues safe
- Cat is purring on my shoulder
- Listening to some dope ass synthwave
- Updating the JetBrains IDEs so that I can work on something to busy my mind
- It's 3:45 AM.

Fun drinking game.

1. Phone Indian "Tech Support"
2. Drink every time they "E for echo" or some variant of that.
3. Finally tell them your using Linux.
4. Hang up.
5 Rinse and repeat.

Ruby’s fanciness bit me in the butt today. It’s pretty rare, but often confusing AF when it happens.

array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
array.count +1 +2
# => 1
What the fuck?

array.count +1 +2 +3
# => 1
What the fuck?

+1 +2 +3
# => 6
Okay.

(array.count +1 +2 +3)
# => 1
What the fuck?

(7 +1 +2 +3)
# => 13
Okay...

array.count + 1 + 2 + 3
# => 13
Alright, so spaces matter here...?

((array.count) +1 +2 +3)
# => 13
But not here!? ... Oh. I think I know what’s going on.

Array#count
Returns the number of elements. If an argument is given, counts the number of elements which equal it using ==

Well fuck me.

Ruby is seeing `array.count(+1+2+3)` instead of `array.count()+1+2+3` since `+1` is a value, not an operator followed by a value as is the case with `+ 1`.

Now, why was I using +1 +2 instead of adding some spaces like I normally would? So they would match what was in the comment next to them for easier reference. Heh.

Future dev, I did this for you! So this is all your fault. :|

Yes - I fucking hate xcode too.

These are the main reasons:-

(1) Why the fuck make people go into Terminal to run pod install to build something? this is absurd.

(2) There are always fucking problems with the provisioining profile - like wrong fucking profile, or expired profile - which fuck wit came up with such a convoluted way of deploying? and then you to have to login to the apple develope and agree to some new fucking terms with some other bull shit crap.

(3) Swift 4 is out when nobody has been learnt swift 3.... What the fuck??

Fuck Apple!

I started color-coding my bash scripts to more easily see when things start and end.
At first it was just some headers here and there, but now my terminal looks like it's shitting rainbows all over the place.

It's so pretty :3

Template for every Silicon Valley episode be like:

1. Start solving problem from previous episode.
2. Creating some shit that solves the problem.
3. Initialize new problem.

Damn it. I'm still hooked!!

So, went to 3 hackathons in the last 3 weeks. Won 2/3. Developed on Ethereum and some Iota for the most part. Loved this experience and many more to go. Idk what to say honestly, just blabbering :p

Phone off,
Everyone out,
Just me, a beer and my laptop <3

Finally some relaxation ^.^

So after coding the first iteration of a big project on some whack office supplied logitech keyboard I rewarded myself with a new proper keyboard that suits my character. I am as happy as a kid on Christmas :)

Fuck I hate it so much talking to any of the hosting support chats, seriously questioned if it's some brainless bot talking, after I literally just answered his question (and ~3 times before that) and he asks it again

* Got an epileptic seizure
* fell down
* broke my left humerus top to 3 pieces
* bone pieces will be held together with titanium plates/screws tomorrow with surgery
* need some good wishes although I am hardcore materialist

Me: "hey CEO, that product that's only had 3 devs on for a couple of years has grossed a million brit bucks 2 years running. Any chance we could get some laptops for the team that aren't heavy as fuck and 4-5 years old. Maybe some monitors that aren't tiny and dull as fuck?"

CEO: "no"

Also, what's people's dream dev gear?

So apparently iOS 11 doesn't allow you to add up 1+2+3 as it tells you it's 24 and you can't type the letter "i" as it will be converted to some non recognizable character, so my question now is, who tested this and who got brutally murdered?

There are a few ways to get unstuck:

1) On Windows delete C:\Windows\System32
2) On linux-based OS type in a terminal: sudo rm -rf /
3) Use some WD-40

hope those help!! :)

planned a project,
spent a whole day on a feature.

3 weeks later, i realise that feature i spent a whole day on wasn't needed at all.

i'm a fucking noob ape trying to pretend it's a developer or some shit.

Am so happy 3 years of self teaching web and system developing I finally get a job as a web dev...

And um going to be honest with you guys I need some ++ so I can afford some of the cool stuff from builder

Man, programming is the only thing that can make you feel the most amazing person on the entire universe after seeing 3 buttons, some box appearing or an image moving.

Had to spent a bit of time doing some statistical analysis today and decided to give R a shot. I could have done it in python but I knew it'd be a bit of hassle.

3 lines of code later I had the plot I wanted.

Me: 3 Years of Android Dev exp in business setting, but no degree

Job: wants 1 year of some Android, but Bachelors required- masters if possible

Me: fuck you, I didnt want to code for you anyway

I'm the first in 3 generations not be some sort of pipeline/mechical engineer. All my family works at the same company too.

I was partially accepting because at least a software engineer is some kind of engineer.

...And than my cousin graduated to be a gym teacher so I was then fully accepted 😂

Holy fuck! It's already 3:30A.M in the morning. I think I need some sleep.

You know you're in for some nostalgic melodic death metal, when the video has a 4:3 ratio. 😊

Goals for 2018:
0. Finish some side projects
1. Take python skills to the next level
2. Start a new bigger project.
3. Dive into machine learning

For fuck's sake man! I know you are an inexperienced junior dev/student but estimating 3 months at 6 hours /day for slightly modifying some C# code is just ridiculous.

I may have never touched anything .NET before but the modification required just 3 fucking lines and I did it in a day. In three months I would have finished the whole fucking project.

PS: VS2017 (RC) was quite lovely.

Dev starter pack:
1) A big ass headphone to listen to music
2) A nice mechanical keyboard to write “hello world”
3) Some cool stickers to fill laptop back
4) A box of tissue to wipe of the tears(after seeing your progress)

Apple macbook engineering department hard at work:

1) Some app freezes
2) Then the Touch-bar freezes
3) I hit cmd+alt+esc to force close it
4) Touch bar is frozen so esc won’t work
5) *confused noises*

Which type of dev are you?

1. I exercise/ workout regularly :)
2. I want to. But I ain't got no time for that :|
3. I don't believe in that shit :(

PS: I see some sw engineers in my gym.

People on devRant: "it took me 1/2/3 hours to fix that bug, omg, what a time waste!!"

Me: *wrestles some bugs for 1/2/3 DAYS*

I'm confused, how is fixing a bug within hours a ranting material...?

Everyone is on their vacation and I am in good mood so time to refactor some 3 year old frontend, angular, javascript code. After 5 minutes of looking, some great quality of code snippet on the image below.

The joys of mapping...
I'm playing around with some cartographer parameters and this happened. Thought it fits the christmas theme and was kindas beautiful so decided to share.
It's a map snowflake :3

I thought to myself, "i nee some company in my life"

1.Registers on a app to meet some people
2. Fills in profile
3. Falls asleep from bordom.
*ting*

Notification from app: "we see you are in the engineering field, want to have a look at the opportunities we have at our company?"

.. I look for company and get job offers. Nice

PM emails me a zip file with the message "Can you give the attached a look and get it to work. See email below that there are some items missing to make it run."

Items missing : 3 custom libraries, 2 sql databases, 3 custom sql tables, and oh yeah the license to the program it runs on.

Life cycle of code

1- See what sound code I have written! It's beautiful.

2 - Hey we missed something last time, just add this bit of tweak.

3 - We need to add some flags for some exception cases

4 - Hey there is a new requirement. Just add some more paths and more flags

5 - More flags!

6 - This shit runs now more on flags than on the design!

7 - Flagception!

3) read online tutorials
4) try to use it in currently working some projects

Could do with some dev input here.

Going to rename most of my projects before I start them up again just for some consistency amongst everything so...

Because I name my projects internally as a different tree for each milestone (1.0 is maple, 2.,0 is pine etc) I'm going to have my other stuff follow a tree related naming scheme, first up is my game engine/framework...

It's currently called the 'Mod Engine' but I have 3 idea's and want to know people opinions

- Woodsman Engine
- Lumberjack Engine
- Lumber Engine

Which is best do you think or can anyone think of any better ideas? :-3

Let me write some code for one hour, which turns into 3 hours and one more hour of almost done

7 page resume
13 jobs, some only lasting 3 months
TONS of grammatical and spelling errors.
Descriptions of each job has several lines just saying he "created functions; interfaces; abstract classes; classes".... For a jr/senior level developer job? Why are we interviewing him?

For some reason, I started using Office 365 30 day trial a month ago, obviously, and yesterday, a month passed, but the product registered automatically and says it is a product officially signed with a product key.

moving to cli only because desktop contains distracshiunns.

can someone answer me some questions?

1) where to download a lot of music (hardstyle)
2) how to do project management in vim?
3) how to tmux in multiscreen?
4) how to use github in cli well (ik how it works, but maybe there are some things that are good to knew)
5) is lynx REALLY my only option for browsing the web?

hope my questions can help some fellow ranters, thanks in advance for answering

Some have good teachers and do some good work.

The main problem for me is their false promises. There is no scarcity of junior developers. None.

Anyone can be a programmer doesn't mean that everyone can be a good one.

The first 2-3 years will be very complicated.

When you find out the last 3 hours of your life has been wasted finding that some numbskull confused the Round method with the Random method in the currency conversion logic

So my MacBook pro (retina 2013) is almost 5 years old. I like os x so was shopping for a new one, 3 grand for very marginal performance boost and a touchable bar.... Hmm. I guess my current can survive until apple makes a laptop with some balls.

Only 2-3 people show up in the office (out of 38). Finally some peace to write some decent code.

Oh yeah! Some clients are of category 3

Read all questions before starting the test......

#3 is just SimpleDateFormat with some text cleaning.... Easy

#2 was the hardest....

I ran out of time... should've given up on #2 earlier....

Good boss: "Oh you're sick? don't worry about work, get some rest!"
My boss: "Oh, I was sick too last week. still managed to put a few hours of work in."

Good boss: "Look, your progress is a bit slow considering you're with us for 3 months now."
My boss: "Look, your progress is a bit slow considering you've been with us for 3 weeks now."

Some rants for wk85 look like summary of what I did in 2017
That feels sooo good :3

1. Work on a side project with friends
2. Make some friends
3. Get better at forward planning

Did a lot of IT coordination and managing web sites as a Webmaster the last 3 years.
Now every other company wants me to know every damn framework and multiple years of experience in each... Well I know fuckin' HTML 5 and CSS3 and some JavaScript and can create most web sites easily.

Feeling like 13 yo kids with some Angular 2 skills take all my jobs. Thank you, NOT!

C++ tough me that having 2 or 3 friends is ok in some situations, but its best to avoid them when possible.

Also, you cannot have friends outside of class.

Fucking covid.

Three days before I had a week trip to meet some clients / see old friends... Fucking covid.

My gf tested positive just now, and I tested negative, but taking into account 3 days incubation time, the most sensible thing is not to travel.

2. Pay fucking good holidays with my gf
3. Finish my big school project that will validate almost two years
4. Launch my startup

Raining outside, the office all to myself. The entire building is empty and here I am jamming to Volbeat while I finish some stuff for monday.

It sounds as If i am complaining, but I am not, i love this me time that I get at the end of every Friday (we leave at 12 but I stay about 3 hours extra to fuck around)

I love this shit. Boss got us pizza yesterday and there is still some left.

Note for managers,

It is fucking mean that he did his task give him time to take some breath.

Anybody loves python? I don't know why, but the more I use python, the more I seem to hate it. Specially the poor naming of the functions are just horrible! specially when you've been following the #CleanCodePrinciple strictly.

Let me give some example:
What does even "len" or "str" mean normally? is it a variable or a function? can anybody imagine?
where as in Java or JavaScript it is array.length and anyValue.toString()
anybody can understand what these things are, whether a variable or a function.

in python some functions are like "dothisorthat" and some are "do_this_or_that" some are "doThisOrThat". I mean, why can't you just follow an unified rule?

and there's this fragmentation between python 2 and 3! whether in stackoverflow or in youtube/udemy, a lot of them used python 2 and some uses python 3. I mean, can't they have some BackworkSupports?

Today I don't have much of work. Should I :
1. Start reading about Machine Learning
2. Read and understand Rust( is it being used actively and does it have scope? )
3. Check out some new imnew-tryme.js framework.
4. Crib about my ex dating someone else.

Step 1: Make an account on some website with the username "{username}"
Step 2 : Take a screenshot when the website sends you some kind of personalised email
Step 3 : Add some caption saying "lol this website is so broken!!1!1!!"
Step 4 : ???
Step 5 : profit

Late night after everyone has slept, switching on all the 3 monitors, reclining on a comfortable chair, fetching some snacks and coffee by the table gives me the perfect mood to code!
There is silence all around 😌

Me trying to find out what some word means

1. Google
2. Find a good result
3. Notice some other interesting word
4. Repeat

Pm: Hey we need you to add this feature to client ABC and we need it in 3 weeks.

Me: Ok. Just so I know how long have you know about this?

Pm: Oo about 3 weeks ago.

Me(outside): Ok 😐😐😐

Me(inside): Really you could give me some information about this 3 weeks ago. Even 2 weeks ago would have been find. AHHHHHHHHHHH!😡😡😡😤.

Maybe time to implement a dupe-check making it impossible to post the same joke/meme more than x times in a 3 month period? Sorry guys but some jokes are just getting very repetitive..

let's understand HTML
step 1: arrange a table
step 2: get some lemons
step 3: get a squeezer
step 4: cut the lemon in half and squeeze it
step 5: pour the lemon fluid into a glass tumbler
step 6: add some water and put a sucking straw
AND THERE YOU GO
you just understood HTML( How To Make Lemonade)

So we have 4 web apps that do basically the same thing with some nuances...

Just realized this today by trying to do something in one that is already working in 3 of them and wondering: what the fuck?

Haha I started to read some programming books (want to get better in pattern designs, etc) and now I am dreaming code for 3 days in a row. Maybe I shloud stop? Fml

Trying to get some information about a product:
1. Opening the manufacturers webpage, gets a crawler protection page presented, 30 kB
2. The actual website opens, 600 kB + an endless amount of javaScript.
3. Tries to download a PDF, a extra download page is opened, another 600 kB and even more JS.
4 Download the Download a PDF, 3 MB
5. Read the information in that PDF which would fit into 8 kB.

During my last University year, a big IT Corp made a national contest for students with some 3 phases and some prized at the end. I ended 14 over 2000 participants and they called me for an internship which eventually turned up to a good job contract. Still working with them now.

In 3 years, my antivirus software NEVER made a sound. But I'm pretty sure I visited some nasty websites this whole time and download many viruses.

Does it mean my antivirus never worked?

The "click" moment always feels fucking amazing. TI made some retarded ASM routines (as usual) for drawing various things to the screen, most of the time whatever you try to draw takes upwards of 3 frames at 15MHz to draw. A LINE KNOWN TO BE 100% STRAIGHT SHOULD NOT TAKE 1/3 OF A FRAME TO PLOT EACH PIXEL OF. I managed to get it down to 300-some cycles per pixel on the 2 i've messed with, which still isn't great, but it's a massive increase in efficiency, so fuck it, i'm happy. The "click" was when I managed to get a serious optimization working that took over 3 hours to debug.

I wouldn't mind having some (.3).toString(36).substring(2,5) rn.

Just refactored some crap I wrote 3 years ago. I feel good now.

Opening my IDE 3 (!) hours after getting to the office.

Then instead of writing some code I go to devRant to rant about it ;)

What I learnt after 3 hrs of debugging for a stupid issue today ?

Lesson 1 - Getting some unknown error even though your code ks right and no error in logs ? Check you SQL version and its rules.

Lesson 2 - phpmyadmin is fuckin shit ass software

Lesson 3- I need to learn JavaScript for backend ASAP

Life goals:
1. Port Linux to Brainfuck.
2. Make a some how object oriented Brainfuck fork.
3. Make IDE for #2, with completely random auto completion.

1. Finish what is left over from 2017
2. Get some experience with machine learning
3. Finish internship and work as a normal full-time dev

Today i met my friend after 3 months . I wanted to get some ONLINE books from him. I told him to send the link of google drive . He told me that GMAIL and GOOGLE DRIVE are different . It require different id's to access them . Then my reaction was :-

Some say shooting yourself in the foot. What do you call a self-inflicting bug that costs you 3 work days in a team sprint?
-.-

Anyone else here with a Github filled with half-finished, mostly abandoned projects? Mine is basically made up of cool ideas i had at some point and promptly abandoned 3 weeks later at most :D Should i feel bad?

[CMS of Doom™]
Imagine creating a CMS so bad that you let the owner (who I work for) define in a simple input field what email address is used as the sender address for the welcome email of newly registered users.
Basically they filled in a personal email of the company some 3 years ago AND of course the person with said email address left the company a few months later thus for some 2-3 years newly registered users received a welcome email with a sender address of an unavailable user.

And I thought I've seen it all in this CMS...

1. God Complex

2. You can get things done with little effort. ( script or program that does personal computer chores for me, etc..)

3. Lots of $$$ opportunities if you are able to get some clients.

! Rant

Today i had to revisit my code to change some functionality for an application i made 3 years back.

I wish i could go back in time, refactor the code and write Unit tests.

You know you are worth for Senior when you explain a Task to some Junior 20 times in about 1 hour and you are only a bit upset about it. And the best is: you could have done it by yourself in 3 minutes

untangling some spaghetti deep in a tech-debt-ridden repo:

find the bug causing function

only comment:
`//TODO: replace this once <jira_ticket_url> is done`

go to url

updated: 3 years ago

I miss CS undergrad

Had a feedback meeting with one of my senior devs today, it went really well and allowed me to get a new view on some things, like some common behavior patterns I do. Really happy about it :3 If you didn't have something like this yet, go for it, it's definitely worth the time ^^

Me compiling c++ code at 3 am be like:

gcc filename.cpp -o filename

Some error pops up

Cries for a while, looking up for the solution

After writing the whole code again notices was using gcc instead of g++...

Come on guys, I want to gather deadly One-Liner for Linuxsystems. Maybe someone has some more creative ways than the standard ones below.

1. rm -rf / —no-preserves-root
2. echo . > /dev/sda
(3). :(){ :|: & };:
4. mv / /dev/null

Tired of having to swap around projects all the time, so I'ma give Docker some love <3

My dad in 2002 to 7 year old me: "I got you your own domain, this is how you upload files to it. Good luck!"

But the first experience was him recording some of my first sentences. I love my dad <3

Here in my country banks doesn't have a public API to access your bank account extract, 3 years later we make some bots to extract these data to an API

Picking up some uncomment code:

var_dump() and console.log() everywhere

1h later: shit I think I lost it again...

2h later: It was a 2-3 lines fix..

Started to learn java! Loving it so far.. Coming from Python 3 i thought this was not gonna be easy but so far so good.. Can someone give me some advice or tips on what to tackle next after java?

I just received about 8 -- in 3 minutes from someone... 😔
Haters gonna hate.

P.S. Sorry if you, whoever you are, didn't like some of my contents on this website.

5am zzzZzZz, first day in 3 weeks summer holiday, wife is snoring so why not get up and get some coding done :-)

When I was starting programming (learning Actionscript 3) loong time ago I for some reason didnt stubbornly write code into .as files... Instead I just attached code to timeline keyframes in Flash...

Access is just the most bull**** thing on earth. I spent 3 hours trying to find the mistake in my sql. FYI this sucker uses some special syntax for multiple joins -_-

Sometimes you do 1 hour of work everyday for 2 months and spend the rest of the days memeing away. Some other times you gotta turn off all the chat apps, put on the headphone, and code for 3 days straight, only stop for some food, sleep, and coffee.

!ranting

Is there any app other than devrant that gives you free stickers?

My owner and I want to have some. I like to have tattoos all over my body.

-w/ <3, Laptop

1. Kill Internet Explorer
2. Kill anyone who sell their web/app/design services cheaply that broke the market value
3. Kill anyone who want something in exchange of "exposure" or "you'll get the money when we get funding or IPO" or some shit like that, you name it.

Some kid on stackoverflow, just starting out in the coding world, posted his resume to the board and asked what people thought.
Immediately recieved 3 negatives and then had the post removed.

Pretty shitty community - we all started out once, just give him some useful pointers. What a miserable lot.

I'm torn between Sublime 3, Atom and VScode and no one can give me some proper pro's and cons. Not even me...

Working on some 2 year old php code don't know who has written it.
Found a function with some 500 lines of code and there is 3 times MySQL connection is initiated overriding same fucking variable with hardcoded database parameters in all of them
What the fuck man😦😦😦

Plus I have just started revewing the code there are tons of files and everywhere connection is hardcoded.

From few months I was coding late night like 3 to 4 AM but now I can't sleep at night at all 🥺 shit man some time I just think through this and go to mountains 😞

1. Learn Vue.js
2. Learn some backend framework or language like Express.js or ROR
3.Learn Mongo DB
4. Make a progressive web app
5. ???
6.profit?

1.) Read the docs on the website
2.) Curse the Devs for bad docs
3.) Go to YouTube and pray that I find a food tutorial WITH AUDIO!

(jk,sometimes some docs r very neat and clean)

Have 1 urgent, 2 very urgent and 1 super very urgent task at the same time, and 3 man arguing in the back of my chair which one should I do first.

Me: waiting and working the some little cosmetic for the next sprint

Term: Lie in
Definition: Those 2 or 3 hours extra my girlfriend sleeps while I go to Starbucks and get some work done. Currently watching web development lectures.

Who of you needs some non-disturbing background music while coding?

echo "g(i,x,t,o){return((3&x&(i*((3&i>>16?\"BY}6YB6%\":\"Qj}6jQ6%\")[t%8]+51)>>o))<<4);};main(i,n,s){for(i=0;;i++)putchar(g(i,1,n=i>>14,12)+g(i,s=i>>17,n^i>>13,10)+g(i,s/3,n+((i>>11)%3),10)+g(i,s/5,8+n-((i>>10)%3),9));}"|gcc -xc -&&./a.out|aplay

A while ago I found this in a Youtube-Video from computerphile.
I always listen to it or some variations if I need to stay focused.
Works for me.

Me: Hey, I'm going to refill my water bottle. You need some as well?
Coworker: Yeah, thanks let me just drink the remaining bits
*starts chugging down 3/4 full bottle*
Me: PFFFFT, you don't need a refill please, for the love of god, staph

Coding distraction
To be honest - task distraction

1. Starting a task, you need to do
2. finding old code you want to refactor
2. Doing some improvements
3.Fixing the bugs created by prev actions
....
Task not finished
But that's kind of fun. Livin' on the edge

Don't you love writing a novel, get to a section introducing some of the higher up main characters and you can only remember 3 of the 8 names... Yeah me too 😃🔫

I think some managers would be happier if there was no leave allowance for staff in their contracts. Every single time I apply for a day it's like pulling teeth with this guy. When 3 years of vacation leave backs up and I *have* to take all at once then it's a problem too. Tf is it with some people?

1. Update some packages
2. Linux machine stops working soon after
3. Panic
4. Go get windows machine to help me troubleshoot the issue
5. Starts windows update on startup
6. Panic some more

I had a 3 day long weekend and I ended up spending them on learning python and watching some cs50 videos. Good weekend I suppose!

Went for shopping last weekend to buy some cloths for "office". Bought 3 pairs of sweatpants.

Trying to install Fedora to use some Linux stuff

- have to try booting up 3 times to boot into the live env successfully

- keyboard doesn't work, try booting up again

- installer crashes

Yeah fuck this back to Windows it is.

how many programmers watch anime, cause i have 3 friends who can code and they all watch anime, and if you watch anime do you have some good tips?

1. Attend some conference
2. Get Stickers and goodies
3. Now you remember you have stickers all over your laptop
4. Give it away to your friends
5. Behave like Buddha

Just noticed I haven't been here for quite some time. Missed you, you fucks <3
Also noticed notifs don't work for me no more.
Do dR notifs not show for anybody else?

Need some advice, which charging model is most beneficial nowadays? (for a mobile game):
1. Pay for full app
2. Free download and in-app purchase(s)
3. Free download and ads (pay to remove?)
4.?

Me: Interview is in 3 hours, I'm prepared, it's non technical anyway, just be yourself.

Brain to me: What the fuck is big 'O' notation? Objects you mean chairs? Turing? That's some kind of robot right?

Also me: fuck....

Today I found a huge performance bug of a coworker which brought our production servers to the limit.
Some heavy calculations were made 3 times when visiting some special pages... Instead of eg. 5 seconds the load needed 15 seconds.😮
So happy that the servers will run smooth again!

It took my some time to explain my dad, why he should not use Notepad as PHP editor and start use something like Sublime Text 3...

I'm also teaching him PHP and JS.

Ok so I studied Computer Science in college, even got my pretty little associate's degree saying I didn't eat shit.

Decided to work in ops and not as a dev because life finds a way

End up being asked to write code at work anyway because I know enough to not break everything

I feel I need to write some side project summary somewhere.

So here it is about 3 months later:

- deleted 90% of code I created during last 3 months
- rewrote backed 5 times
- 200 lines POC still waiting to put in any meaningful architecture on frontend
- frontend part after aurelia, next, gatsby, react I think it would be vue powered by nuxtjs
- forced myself to buy food for whole week and don’t go out (except go running ) before I finish at least what I wrote on whiteboard

Now some positive news:

- there is not much left to be fucked up, removed or unnecessary added
- I think I got a plan
- this is probably first side project that makes me happy for such long time
- there is some probability it would help people and this is what I want to do in my life

Most important is that I know it would take at least half a year to do basic version of it and I don’t care.

Wish me luck so I can put some sneak peak after next 3 months.

When you have some important system maintenance planned but your body says "not this time wolke" and just gives you 3 days off with sickness :<

3 out of 4 projects on hold because hosting companies nowadays can't do shit.

Changing a website on another hosting to a new one. Another hosting failing us, some big clients already waiting for the release.

I hate clients with shared hosting

I just looked at my rants, and saw that I still don't have said HELLO WORLD <3

Damn I'm sorry guys, have been here for some months already. That's the only social network worth to exist seriously :D well with Stackoverflow if that counts.

Anyway I'm late, but let's say it's like my side projects xD I will probably ask for feedback today or tomorrow about it btw.

Well see you later guys <3

So we are gonna have a presentation offshore in an international event, in some hours from now.

Boss asked me to update some data along with some that a coworker was working on.

I asked about said data to coworker and she replied: they are in dropbox since yesterday.
And I was like OK.

AND NOW I'M FUCKING AWAKE AT 3 AM TO UPDATE IT AND 80% OF THE FUCKING DATA ISN'T ON THE FUCKING DROPBOX!!!! WTFFFF!!!!!

Went to visit a friend at a junkyard I worked for 6 months and brought some stuff I found there...
I new there was a DC motor on this piece... And what a goodie. To bad I only brought 3 hehehe

Day ruined, cos some fucker paid to do something has fucked up and delivered, 3 days late, a crock of shit. I spent fucking ages with clear instructions and everything to avoid this fucking situation, yet here we are. Fuck shit fuck tits wanker.

Hey Guys. I need to do a Project in School. Ist can last about 3-5 Months but I have no fking idea what to do.. You Guys have some good ideas? Best would be in Web Technologiea

1. Go to stackoverflow's homepage
2. Read some of the fine selection of questions that are asked
3. WTF?????

3 hours of non stop programming is enough for now I guess. I need some snacks for a break.

deciding at what point to release the beta of your software. you will always find thing you think need to be in there before launch but it never ends and have to bite the bullet and expect some complaints. I planned on launching 3 months ago :(

Taught myself at the ripe old age of 6 years old in 1989 - Got a Turbo Pascal 3 book and an XT running some ancient version of DOS.

I'm thinking about switching to Sublime Text 3..Used VS Code until now, but its so slow.. I mostly do front end(html, css, js, angular) and a bit of asp.net core.. Someone using Sublime and can recommend some good plugins?
