MOTHERFUCKER!

I warned EVERY client 4 weeks prior to my current vacation that I would be gone for 12 days, that I'd be in Canada, that I would NEITHER be able NOR fucking interested in doing ANY work during that time and that I'd only be able to react to absolute and undeniable emergencies regarding server matters.

"Hey, can you update our WordPress site?"
(Auto responder answers, reminding all current clients and telling potential new ones that and when I am on vacation)
"Hey, did you receive my email?"
(auto responder doing its thing)
"It's been two days, have you been able to update out site, yet?"

No. Fuck you. Eat shit and die, leave me alone on my fucking vacation and godamn motherfucking hang yourself or by god's balls I'll visit you with a blowtorch, some pliars and a spray can of sulfuric acid, you ignorant fucking son of a syphilitic whore and her mongoloid brother!

*puts email address on block list*

Goddamn!

Wife: what are you thinking about?

Me: how to optimize key storage in a binary tree

Wife: forget that I asked

That moment when you realise that stack overflow can't help you...

Forever alone.

Fucking leave me alone...

Group projects make me realise why Batman works alone.

I just found out by accident that you can mention yourself and receive a notification. So, if you ever feel alone on devRant, ...

lol

This is why I prefer working alone. Its sadly true...

So I maintain a open source PHP app that wraps youtube-dl, providing an UI for it basically. Some guy on a forum DMd me saying it's not working for him. I asked him what php version he used and if the file permissions are correct (the script makes and switches directories, so the permissions can't be root but need to be www-data).

He answers with PHP 7.2 (the newest that's rare) and says the file permissions are correct.

After 2 weeks the problem still persists and ofc I am doubting my code here. We finally get online together and I can use anydesk to work on his machine.

I discovered 2 things.

1) File permissions were just completely wrong.

2) PHP WASN'T EVEN INSTALLED

So what did I learn?

Never trust the user and I am glad that I work as a dev, not as a tech support.

Best answer by far 🤦‍♂️
Guess I will die alone

Headphones on = I'm in a flow. Leave me the fuck alone.

Am I the only one that will have my headphones on (without music) just so people will not bother me?

-Why are you still alone?
-Me :

It's dangerous to go alone, take this!

Create branches with name of girls and later check them out.

When my question gets upvotes on Stack Overflow but none answers it

when you google your thoughts even if you don't expect to find any result, but surprisingly you discover that you're not alone :')

couse, why suffer alone..

Putting headphones on and being left alone

Forever Alone :'(

Wished sudo exists in real life also.

Me: Leave me alone.
Person: No.
Me: sudo Leave me alone.
Person: Sure.

Alone in the office. Everyone left to see Portugal play. Time to blast some heavy fucking metal. 🤘

It is 2:15am and I am alone in the office. I seriously hear a mechanical keyboard, but nobody else is here. I guess I die tonight.

!dev
!!personal
!!abuse

I'm a victim of rather severe child abuse, both physical and mental. I've cut my mother out of my life on several occasions, and disowned her husband on father's day a few years ago. Whenever they're in my life they make things slowly but significantly worse.

They'd been using my previous hard times to push their way into my life again, and are now trying to buy their way in -- this time not into my life, but into my 2yo son's life.

I've done everything I could to keep his existence from them. I hid pregnancy from them, dropped any mew mannerisms and cute vocabulary when speaking to them, never let them see toys or hear sounds if I needed to call them, hid the carseat, etc. I did a perfect job. Out of necessity I've been hiding my life from them since I was 13, and I've never done better than this.

But they knew his name, sex, and age. This means they went digging, and a bloody lot. There is literally no public info relating him to me, and nobody that knows us would tell them, either -- they all know and understand.

For years I've refused to tell these people where I lived, too. We've been here for over five years, and three years ago they just randomly showed up at our door. I never gave them an address, and the house isn't in my name. I never had any privacy when I lived with them, either -- literally not even in the bathroom -- but now we have our own house and they still randomly intrude? asldhflakshdf

But. This Christmas Eve, we got two large boxes (fruit flats) stacked full of presents from them. A third for me, a third for my girlfriend, and a third for my 2yo. Name tags and all.

Why can't they just leave us alone? On Christmas of all holidays? Why do they have to ruin everything? Why can't they just go away?

I've made things abundantly clear, and they just. won't. stop. I feel so angry and exasperated and helpless and trapped. I went from listening to "die in a fire" to crying helplessly on the stairs. All I want is to be left alone and not harassed and blackmailed and manipulated and guilted and given expired food as "gifts."

and before you ever even think to defend them, please re-read my first three sentences.

Just.
Merry fucking Christmas.

Working alone is great. You won't have to deal with others shit coding and others won't have to handle your shit coding.

Code free, code alone!

When you are fixing a friend PC and your girlfriend send a message : " I am home alone "

I hate when I go on stack overflow to find an answer, and all the comments for the correct answer say, "awesome thanks!", "Works perfectly now, thanks!". While I sit staring at my screen feeling like a complete idiot because I don't understand the given answer at all!

Am I alone? 😅😂😂

Only thing i don't like in home project repositories is i'm the only who commits :(

Happy new year!
If you feel alone tonight, read your firewall logs.

Watching Netflix alone when gf asks if she can join, or preferrably inner join.

I love this girl to death 😍

Programming when i'm alone and programming when someone fucking pass near by me.

So, where was I? Ah, yeah …

✓ homemade iced tea with enough caffeine to kill a grown elephant bull
✓ Gadget's The Great Destroyer ready to roll on full volume
✓ my birds chattering and happily playing in the background
✓ perfect coding shit weather outside
✓ no fucking humans in sight
✓ Elm, CSS and a perfect Webpack setup for my latest hobby project

Ah, true bliss. So let's begin …

*door rings*

Fucking hell! Where in the flying, cunting fuck are you, nuclear war, armageddon, apocalypse? Destroy this fucking world already!

Me: may I have this dance?
Girl: no thank you.
Me: sudo may I have this dance?
Girl: o_O

When you start smiling at rants all the time and your family and friends think you got a new girlfriend

Scrat is no longer alone!

Longest time spent on a bug: 4 years and counting.

Still trying to debug my social life. Fucking complex

I need dating advice but everyone I know would just tell me to use ISO 8601...

We meet at devrant

When you leave your intern alone for 5 minutes...

You know you're getting old when you have to increase the font size of your editor... 😫

And left the bar alone.

Today I gained thousand ++'s and got a dog... I left the dog home alone and
...

When you're the only one in the company that starts early and you have to wait 2 hours until you can actually talk to someone... :(

Everyone loves dark themes. I think I'm alone.

Was able to move the only appointment I had today to another day, since it's raining like hell and public transport works irregularly today.

Early weekend! Fucking awesome!

Now I can sit here at home all alone, without anybody bugging me, listen to my birds enjoying life, drink Yerba, listen to Motörhead and work on my own Elixir blog.

Haaah, this is a good day.

Writing HTML is not coding. You can't relate to me.

To those of us that are alone tonight, remember that alcohol is a solution.

parents every day: "how can you drink that much coffee and not die??"

Me being a newbie developer, already left alone by my senior when system mock in production environtment and many problems and bugs occured

Our type of Valentine's day

Was trying out Rider IDE from IntelliJ, and all is good until they gave me that warning -.-

Programming alone vs with someone.

Forever Alone

Everyone keeps staring at me on the train 😓 what have I done 😓

I'm just a Insecure dev leave me alone!

night.sleep = null;

NO, im not going to give you root access!! okay?!
thats my freaking server, bro!

When I am in the zone and someone disturbs me

Code reviewing my own commits... Forever alone

At work I put my headphone with no music just to be left alone, you ?

he walks a lonely road
the only one who perl still even knows
he writes his code
but it's only him, and he codes alone

he sees his perly screen
on the monitor of mono-green
a typo CIG
and he's the only one, and he codes alone

he codes alone, he codes alone
he codes alone and he codes a-

/etc/shadow's as new as the lang he's using
his scripting starts as soon as he's in
sometimes he'd wish the syntax wasn't blinding
till then he codes alone

ah ah, ah ah, ahhh-ah
ah ah, ah ah

he's coding another line
that references a function way behind
another "or die" ends a failed find
of one who writes this code

read comments that shine
explain fucked up fixes when a process dies
log a debug sign to know the hiccup's just fine
and he codes alone

he codes alone, he codes alone
he codes alone and he codes a-

stares at his text, green
on the lines of his CRT
where the old language sleeps
and he's the only one, and he codes alone

boulevard of broken screens
dedicated to @DewWisp

This alone makes it worth it.

Don't be lazy when naming things. You yourself will be lost in all the a, b, c, ds, let alone your code reviewers.

-What are your plans for the weekend?
-oh! I'm reading a really good book about machine learning

I had a very informal interview/information session with a hot girl earlier this week.

Being the #foreveralone type, I'm calling it a date with a hot girl, when I tell my family about it. 😍

We scheduled a follow-up session for next week, which will be even more informal than before. Now it'll be more like a date, and I won't feel so bad telling people she liked me enough to go on a second date. 🙃

What can I say, I take what I can get. 🤗

Forever alone like programmer
Object: find a girlfriend

A DevRant a day keeps the "Oh my fucking God leave me alone!"away.

She asked to tell her a joke.
"My life...", said I.
"Error 404, joke not found..." replied she.
She is also a developer.

Alone on valentines?
1: Buy 100s of plastic rings
2: Hide in the kitchen of a fancy restaurant
3: Put rings in glasses of champagne
4: Watch

Why I like working alone

We are having a party at home ... I just wanna be left alone and code :/

I am developer.

Discussing the design of our App, he asked me whether I have used tinder. I replied, "No, never had to..."

He laughed out hard and also told his colleague this joke.

I am a developer.
But... I am also a gamer, not a player 😎
I dont need tinder, I have Counter-Strike.

Just once I'd like to be left the fuck alone and not be distracted every fucking 5 minutes

It would be nice if everybody could just leave me the FUCK alone and let me work.
Goddammit!

I finally have friends..

If you come up with a great idea in a meeting to solve a problem, be prepared to implement it alone.

OmG I haTeZ WhEn PIp0L tHinK I Am A haCk3R bIcoZ of My trMinAl Lib mi alone! XOXOX

shut the fuck up.

Today I realized that I'm not alone of my kind,

today I found DevRant!

I'm holding a programming class today, it's an open-door event, so anyone can come and try it out.
Nothing too much, just basic things.

I've been holding it for 30 min... To no one... No one showed up...

I'm alone in the office today and already done a lot of work. How can I be so much more productive when nobody is around.

test@test.com must have a huge amount of spam! From me alone anyway

Heard my team leader is leaving, this leaves me as the only developer in the company, we went from 4 all the way down to 1... #thiscompanyisamess

All alone at work today. I'm glad I have Wilson to motivate me.

If im fine using Windows and getting my work done, i really couldn't care less about your Linux suggestion

When I realized that my rant on wk60 had only one ++ and that one was by @dfox, I was glad that I'm not alone 😀

I tell my professor If he could help me with a threading issue in my program. Tells me he hasn't done threading.

ಠ_ಠ

Have you ever been so alone on a project that even if everything seems easy, you don't want to work on it because nobody cares about it?

Why in lucifer's name does every two paragraph shit blog post or five minute 'look, ma!' video tutorial need a fucking conclusion, nowadays? Are you afraid your target audience is so severely mentally challenged that it can't extract the point you intend to make in a total of ten sentences?

Maybe it's time to throw out the fucking buzzwords and restrict yourself to talking about matters you actually understand yourself before publishing a fuckload of half-arsed tutorials about it, whaddaya think? How about removing all the uhms and uhs you 'structured' your pseudo-pretentious drivel with?

If you really have to fucking contribute to the misinformation and watering down of useful information so many of your fellow lobotomy victims are already engaging in, at least tell everybody upfront that you're a fucking dimwit and couldn't tell your arse from your reflection in the mirror, if somebody gave you a pat on the former, and a piece of whatever else you eat apart from attention.

Also, call it 'tl;dr' instead of 'conclusion', that would be more appropriate, because half of your knuckle scraping target audience probably can neither read nor hold a strain of thoughts that doesn't involve the words 'fuck' or 'banana' for longer than a minute, so even your idiotic conclusion is useless, if it's comprised of more than three words.

I wish dumb people weren't allowed to use the fucking internet.

CONCLUSION:
Burn your computer!

Fuck you Dora

Good morning everyone, I hope the Windows update service leaves you alone today.

"I feel bad about bugging you throughout the day, so I try to leave you alone" - PM

I feel like I got a good one.

Devrant is the only social app that I get notifications in it. 😎

Feeling alone as hell here.

How did you guys/gals meet your SO (no, not StackOverflow) ?

First day of a week long vacation and this series of emails comes in (no I didn’t reply to any of these)

Random new QA: “Why does this 5 year old functionality behave this way?”

(10 minutes later)

QA: Okay I saw your out of office message but I really need to know why this behaves this way or else I’m opening a defect because I don’t believe it should behave this way.

Internal me: Heh that’s great kid but you didn’t make the requirements.

(Another 10 minutes pass)

QA: Defect opened, please resolve this before Wednesday.

Oh the joys of enterprise development, I guess if it’s a big enough deal they’ll actually forward it on to the people I put in my away message. I’d love to see that defect holding up the release when I get back on Monday.

*phone rings*

Me: "Hello".

Caller: "Hi, I'm just going to patch you in to this conference call."

Fucking hell.

I want to program, but I don't want to program 🤔😩

Am I alone in this?

OK, so I get that we don't have a great reputation for dating but at the same time it's kinda rubbing salt in the wound when a dev company organises a global coding challenge for valentines day.

Why did my HTML page went to the party alone?

Because it didn't have "any body" to go with it.

Being alone can be quite nice sometimes but sometimes it's just ... lonely

It's weird

public void listenUp(){
If (goodMood){
approachSayHi;
}
else{
backTheFuckUp;
}
}

Left my laptop at work... :/ how can I sleep knowing my dear laptop is alone and cold.. feeling sad :(

"One's never alone with a rubber duck." (from the Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy)

HOW!? Just HOW THE FUUUCK??!

Did anybody ever try to put a cinnamon desktop onto a ubuntu server version?? 'Cause this is simply fucked up!

Just add the ppa they said. Just run
$ apt-get install cinnamon
they said!

APT-GET YOUR FUCKING HEADS OUT OF YOUR ASSES!

ARRRGGGH. *table-flip*

Programming alone vs programming when someone watches

Sitting in the computing lab with my lab partner and the debugging duck. Shortened for hilarity.

Partner: Urgh, there's something wrong with my python code.
Me: Hmm, let's see. Oh, by the way you look good in that shirt.
P: Okaaay, thanks... Are you hitting on me?
M: Seriously, James? IT'S BEEN 8 BLOODY MONTHS AND YOU'VE ONLY JUST NOTICED!?
P: Oh, I'm straight.
M: Oh, eh, so what's wrong with your program?

Trust me to make everything awkward. Not looking forward to tomorrow 🙄🤐

My ideal job: leave me the fuck alone, I know what I'm doing.

Should I give swearing comments under the "I found my SO" rants for this week? 😔

I'm not upset. Not angry. Really. Well maybe a tad envious. Just a tiny bit. Yeah.

Screw it. Yeah I hate you all. 😭😭😭

I work alone.

Wrote all that alone, I'm so proud of myself!

I have to do this every time I leave my laptop alone.
Hostel Life !

When your wife gets a new puppy and it won't leave you alone while you're working.

Am I the only one that likes doing things alone?

When you're deep into coding and every 15 mins a project manager taps you on the shoulder to see how it's going.

I registered a new domain two days ago. Today my inbox looked like this:

Sometimes coffee is your best friend and sometimes the only one.

My boss has gone for a long vacation from last week and will be back in Feb. And office feels soooo awesome and fun. No office politics, no senseless meetings. Just pure work in peace.

I wish he doesn't come back only....

My routine lately :
* Opens devrant*
* Sees loads of posts of developers mentioning their girlfriends or wives*
* Looks around the empty room *
* Gets sad and dies a little.*
* Get back to coding hoping of getting a girlfriend after finishing this project( never gonna happen) *
++ If you ever felt the same.

Since this isn't dev, I'll have to make it a rant:

I can have hobbies other than devving, goddamn it! Leave me alone!

Everybody leaves me alone until I'm pseudocoding an algorithm to solve a tough problem and need to keep my train of thought. Then suddenly everybody needs me.

When you start something new, but alone..
Nobody to discuss shit with!

Finally got approved to bring on a second developer for a three month project. Our vendor provided 12 of their "best" candidates, and we picked the only three that actually knew the programming language required to interview. Two did not speak sufficient English and the last one sounded perfect. Two weeks in, he quits and doesn't answer the vendor or us. No money in the budget to try again and I end up developing the entire thing myself. Five months later and I have finally finished.

When you add comments and your code isn't working so you just leave it alone for 2 hours and when you come back it works

So my host of choice decided to migrate an old site to a new set of IPs without warning yesterday, down side to a VPS I guess.

Now this wouldn’t be an issue if it wasn’t on a dedicated IP you wankers.

DNS won’t resolve to new location yet and Virtual hosts contained the old IPs and for some fuck of a reason the httpd file is auto generated 😡so updating it will be lost on reboot.

Like What the flying fuck you imbeciles, this site has been up and running for 5+ years on this IP.
I barely do any maintenance for t as it’s just an old horse sitting on the web but fuck you don’t need to fuck with it or atleast give some fucking warning before you go drop it offline 😡

After googling "fuck whoever thought of open plan offices" out of pure rage, I found this gem of a website, now I'm happily surprised I'm not alone. :)

Group projects at university suck…

So there is this really cute guy in my class and he recently started to learn coding. Since I am 'the computer guy' in school, of course he got to me and asked for help. I introduced him to C# and for the next two weeks helped him learn and understand the language. It was so neat and he was so cute, doing all the mistakes I did too (1+1=11, that kind of stuff)

Now he informed me today that he switched to Java. Of all the languages, Java!! Guess I'll need to search for a new Padawan, fml

Slackbot, you'll never leave me... right? ... RIGHT??!

I really miss putting on some headphones and getting shit done while listening to some rock.

I like pair programming, but doing it all the time is starting to feel exhausting. I need some "me" time, ya know?

404
I prefer to work alone lol

for(;;){
alone();
}

Why am I even in a company with no testers nor QA. Everything's just the dev and the dev alone.

Sitting in Office on a Saturday learning how to Code :) There is nothing like a quiet peaceful office with no other keyboards clickety clacking than your own.

!rant

All I want in life is to be left alone in a fucking sub-basement somewhere so that I can just code and research and drink coffee and ignore other humans until the day I die.

Is that so much to ask? To be left the fuck alone?

PLEASE NO MORE EMAILS OR PHONE CALLS CLIENTS! I JUST WANT TO WOOOOORRK!

Well im working alone. But sometimes i do project with someone but everybody is ok.
Well i do crazy stuff sometimes but its rare

"How long it takes to complete a task"
A slightly exaggerated illustration of why I enjoy coding alone ^^

It's a Friday morning I'm tired as hell after a hard week. trying to plough through all my work earphones in, music really loud. Sales guy in the office tries to talk to me i didn't hear him as my earphones were in he then says "you need to turn your music down or turn it off if you can't hear us" he said this in this serious tone. *music gets louder* to drown his noise out.

Group project help me understand why Batman works alone 😡😡😡

Nice to see that developers all over the world seem frustrated!
I no longer feel alone! 😂

Any interruption. Noise and questions are the worst.

Also my girlfriend, when I'm coding alone and writes me online. She gets mad at me if I don't respond.

The legit mod of try-catch! :P

*chats someone*
*someone gets offline*

I was contracted for an app (side gig) and told I would have a team working with me. It’s been 5 months and no one else has been hired... At this point, it would probably take 5 more months to explain my shitty code to a new guy.

Being left alone in the doctors office with an unlocked computer, wondering who else got to see my medical records...

Headphones...no music! Am I alone in this?!? 🎧

[Everyone are talking about valentines Day...]

Me : Hey dude what is valentines day?

My failed interaction with a girl:
So I go to a convention at the university.
It's nice I'm having fun, I see a girl dressed as Hermione, she is cute so I go talk to her for a little we joke around I'm really starting to like her. Then I say bye and hang out with friends for the rest of the evening. I see her leaving so I run to her and after catching up to her I ask if I could have her phone number. She says yes and enters her number on my phone. I'm super happy. I excitedly wait for the next day's evening to message her. We message for a while the next day she messages good morning, so I think things are going well, she must like me too right ? I mean we glanced at each other at the convention, she gave me her phone number and messaged good morning so I'm pretty sure she does...

Turns out she doesn't, she says she thought I wanted to be friends...
WHAT ?! FRIENDS ?? Are you 12 ? What friend would run to you to get your phone number and after getting it there would be a stupid grin on his face ??? She looks at 9gag and doesn't know the most overly used meme of "friendzone" ? Unbelievable either she was screwing with me or she is just that socially dense. So after that I'm pretty mad but I don't say any mean things I just accept the fact like a gentleman and carry on with my life. But also feeling depressed after believing we actually had a connection. Ugh I guess back to the coal mines for me huh, stupid conventions 😒

Other Person (jokingly): "That doesn't look like volunteer work, that looks like texting!"

Me (awkwardly): "Haha, yeah..."

Me (internally): If only I had people to text...

Ranting after many light years (oops that's a unit of distance)

Damn Damn Damn.

There is complex workflow engine, and the only thing I know is once you fix and get success response from method A(), call method B().

After 2 days and nights effort, method A() is fixed and I am getting success response.

Now, when I pass this response to B()

One data is missing and hence failing.

Where the hell is that data getting kicked out...

I am in a dead end. I don't even know where to look.
Pinged engineers for help but all in vain till now.

Working on one of world's largest system, and I am miserable in debugging with this system.

And the worst part is there is nothing that I can turn off and on so that it works.

(Don't blame me. I am not that dumb. I just started using it since 3 days)

Listening to music loudly via headphones just isn't the same as being alone and blasting it through speakers...

late at night..

should I keep coding

or.. you know, me alone with dark room, internet and laptop..

By reading devRant and to see that I'm not alone in this world!

I like how the visual Studio Installer is 65MB alone

Has anyone ever wanted to be ignored? Like talking to an empty void, not wanting a response? Just want to be alone?

When you feel so alone, that even you are the only person in Weekly Rant.

As you guys may or may not know (or may or may not give a fuck), I'm currently part-time studying to get a diploma and get the fuck out of my country. Since I have to write a 40-pages long "end of study dissertation" about something we personnaly have interest in, I decided to teach myself about DevOps.
In order to prepare it, I decided to get a Raspberry Pi, install Docker and Jenkins (as a container) on it, and handle my multiples websites on it, and build a huge fucking website around which I would write my dissertation about.
But man, I'm starting to loose hope, I get to bed at 2 AM every night because I'm trying to make some basic shit work until I realize that I just CAN'T what I want because of tons of reason, so I try to lower my expectations, and it's frustrating. Yesterday, a Ruby on Rails image I created was perfectly working, tonight MySQL throws an "host not authorized for this mysql server" error, and I don't know what the fuck is happening nor if I can do anything about it.

I love teaching myself new stuff, but I have to admit, it's waaay harder than I expected

For fucks sake people. Stay out of my personal zone when commuting. I see at least five different seats on that piece of shit that is called a train - and yet you stinking pile of miserable meat need to sit right next to me?
Ugh - if you would at least eat your disgusting breakfast somewhere else...

I was told the other dev hadn't enough time anymore to maintain this 20-year-old project, because he did it in his free time and we should transition from working together, learning the code, etc to me maintaining the whole thing with the other dev providing the knowledge about his program.

So, we had one meeting where I got the current state of the program and never really heard from the other dev again.

This thing was written in C and quite a mess (it still is, who needs refactoring...) and I have never programmed in C before. Needless to say, I learnt a lot.

Common man

So recently I have this course called Operating Systems and we used putty to connect to a linux server. An assignment was given to fork a child and pass the message through all the children and all that good stuff. The assignment wasn't the hard part, its to deal with the fact that some people just orphan their children. The server is on the verge of death at this point. So.many.tasks.running. Can I wall and tell them to kill their processes ~_~

A mail I got two days ago started out like this:

"Hello Mr. $myLastname,

I know the Internet Explorer is quite old but we found some errors[...]"

My mind: "NooooOOoOOOO"

They find a lot of weird stuff too, dropdowns, carousels all that major stuff didn't work.

Turns out it was a bug with bootstrap 4.1.0. It's fixed in 4.1.1 and until, release we can use 4.0 just fine.

My feelings in those 15 minutes resemble a sine wave.

Java I love you and hate you at the same time!

Alone Alone Alone.....

I'm soo alone in respect to programming...

Not even one programmer frnd 😔😔

How sad is this...!!!!

anyone having the same problem of mine? I was asked to give an estimation but I suck at giving estimations!
I once gave my boss an estimation of three weeks, and completed in 1.5 weeks + including unit tests for my work O_O

Is there anyone else who sings what he/she codes when coding alone on a saturday afternoon?

This is the poster I have on my door, in the hopes it would determine people from disturbing me and consequently taking me out of the zone and productivity streak I'm on. Sadly it does not work as often as I'd like it to 🙁 but I still love it 😆

So after 7years of sound engineering, I started working as an intern in a startup company which does "anything" for money.
( Sending me to a seminar for taking photos of our customers is also in the list. )
Yesterday, I managed to grasp the basics of node and web sockets to build a simple chat app in order to satisfy boss' needs for a small website. He wanted to add it as a feature and assigned it to me as a task but it turns out nobody has any idea about putting it online. Seems like I still have lot to do.
Thing is, this is my 3rd month and I already started making no sense to anyone when I try to exchange information about coding/programming and latest technologies which we should encountered long ago. I am happy to experience and learn different things but I am feeling really alone.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for boosting me with amazing real life experiences and supporting my career changing decision even without knowing.

Have fun ranting!

Programmers listen to house and electro is this True
else: " i am alone "

There's nothing like creating an account here less than 24hours ago and already have over 40++. It's good to know I don't suffer my pain alone.

I don't like others to know that i'm a programmer. Do you agree or why shall they know? It just changes their opinion on you.

You have 2 options:

a) Work together with a "C player" (low skills/ talents)

b) Work alone

How would you decide and why?

Freelance Headhunters...

No idea where they got my name and the number of my work phone...

- they do not give a damn and call me 1045 am to discuss "EXCITING BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES™"

- they are sure I am having a case of stockholm syndrome, because I could NEVER be satisfied in my current employment

- they call every other day with a new number and start the same process again

How fucking dense can people get?

Come to the new year's party, they said.
It'll be fun, they said.
We'll leave you alone, they never said.

When a project manager has 'fixes' written on paper and wants to sit with you while you make them.

Windows rant incoming!
For fucks sake! I think Windows have asked me 117 times if I want to update now. The answer is still fucking no!
And I don't care how much of a security improvement it might be, when your shitty update causes a Memory Management error.
So fuck off, stop minimising my game while I play and go fix your shitty update first!
Fuck you Microsoft, fuck your QA team and while I'm at it, I want to say fuck you to all versions of Windows Server as well!

no!! forever alone

When you're in a crowd, still alone AF

Major change in this year.

"Switching from Win7/Ubuntu dual boot to Ubuntu alone"

I will miss source tree though :(

./ChristmasWithFamily > /dev/null

I'm happy it's over and I can be alone again.

Another San Valentine's day alone. Well, at least Pornhub is free today.

MYSQL has gone away.....😔

I have the following shell aliases set:

conf='vim ~/.bash_profile'
go='. ~/.bash_profile'

This reason alone is why I've hesitated to learn golang.

Do you guys like working in a team or alone?

During the "how to install WordPress" the professor tells us to use the root user of the database.... Wooooooo yeah! Let's get fucked!

And he never even notes to them "DON'T use root in production!"

I can just imagine every one of the 40 people in attendance that day wondering how their website could POSSIBLY get hacked...

And they are are going to entering the industry, some of them as freelancers from the onset, thinking all that is ok.

If you work on a tool alone: Front-end first or back-end first? Because I can't decide.
