And then there is this beauty...

Every now and then... try this.

The feeling you get when you've accepted a job offer and then discover this

When you don't know the WiFi password, then you try "12345678" and it works.

If you're going to ask for my help

... and then do the opposite of everything i say

... and then complain when things don't work

... and continue to ignore everything i say

HOW ABOUT YOU JUST FUCK OFF

This made me double take and then chuckle 😅

Sometime I’m developing in Rust and I do something wrong.

Then I look at the terminal and it says...

“You did X, did you mean to do Y”

Then I do it and it works perfectly, and I’m like...

Why do I even have a job if the compiler is this good?

First, I get 150 ++'s and then I get this shirt! Best birthday ever!

Have you tried unblessing it and then blessing it again?

Dev: boss, there are some abnormalities and confusion in the client's specifications.

Boss: So?

Dev: Shouldn't we get clear about them and then start coding?

Boss: No need. We assume and code. Then show them to our clients and then ask for their opinions. We will change again according to their opinion.

Dev: ..

A few months later....

Dev: *seeing so many specifications change and realizing now have to refactor a lot of codes* , FML.

And then my lecturer said JSON and XML are the same thing.

Does anyone else get irrationally annoyed when a team member says "Hi" via slack/messenger etc. and then nothing else until you say "Hi" back, and only then describes what they want?

Dahhhhhh. Stop wasting my time. Just ask what you want.

He gave me task, and I estimated it will take 2 (120 minutes) hours...
He came after 20 minutes to check the progress... Then he came after 40 minutes... Then he call me after 70 minutes... Then he came again after 90 minutes... Then I delivered the task in the time with my resignation letter draft.

and then we have a shitty app 😂

When someone explains to me that they really care about their privacy and use WhatsApp or signal or other encrypted messaging services and then you see then typing stuff through the GOOGLE KEYBOARD.

Yeah i think they're not understanding something 😆

If you come to me, and ask for my opinion about something, then you throw “You’re wrong” at my face. Then why the fuck did you ask me in the first place? Fucking cunt

Just saw my gf print documents, scan them and then mail the scans... 😶

Boot up a Linux live usb on a Windows machine, then rename cmd.exe to utilman.exe and after rebooting select accessibility options which now opens a command line and then 'net user username owned' to reset user 'username' password to 'owned'. Been using this for years..

Unity crashed, and then the crash reporter crashed. Well done Unity!

Me : "I want to remove this file"
Windows powershell : "No you can't"

Me : "I'd like to remove this file and then sort all my /home files in alphabetical order and rename all of then adding some text before and after there actual name"
Linux bash : "Ok. Done."

And then the protection broke and "Avast" was born .... and the broken nature has been there ever since.

Looks like I've to stop saving every now and then! 😂

And then... Another junior arrives... With newer set of buzzwords XD

"If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas." - George Bernard Shaw

When you fix one small bug and then 150+ tests start failing

And then that girl became my Manager......

Gonna code till I'm tired and then sleep till I'm coding again
- Duckpool

That fealling when your in a social dinner with friends (non programmers or techies) and everyone has great histories about work situations... and then you try to tell your history... and then you think about it.. and then you give up because no one will be so excited about some major bug you solved

Anyone else went to bed thinking of how to solve a bug in their code and then ends up dreaming about it then, the idea of how to solve it comes into mind. You wake up to try it out and it worked? 😀

10 more days at my current job.
then: 4 weeks off to rest and get my side projects online.
then: start my new job.

life is good sometimes

Yesh I'll do a quick restart and then continue work. Ah, silly me.

And then blue screen shows up.......

A QA engineer walks into a bar, and orders a beer.
Then he orders 0 beers.
Then he orders 99999999999 beers.
Then he orders an ahzuzydhu.
Then he orders nothing.
Then he orders -1 beers.
Thrn he orders NULL.
Thrn he orders jzuzuj beers.
Then he orders a "<script>giveMeYourCreditCard()</script>"
Finally, he leaves without paying, comes back and asks for the tab.

Heard this one a while ago and wanted to share it here 🙃

I once created a pop up video modal for a client.

A 'bug' was then logged:

"When you click and open the video modal, and then close the tab when finished, it closes the whole site and you have to start over again."

:|

Fine I'm gonna make my own GitHub then with Blackjack and hookers.

That moment when u created a project and quite some folks forked it and continued their own versions, but then you realised that you've made a little mistake back then so now your dumb code propagated across humanity.

¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯

*job ad* We strongly adhere to TDD

Reality:
Me: yeah but shouldn't we write tests first and then get X finished?
Manager: No takes too much time, we finish X and then we decide if it's worth testing.

There is code reuse and then there is stupidity. This npm module has 4 dependents and 2 dependencies.

Starting a project and then abandoning it. Yep.

fucking mashable. I hate it so much. did you see their story today? they're supposed to be about "tech" BUT THEY TALKED ABOUT WHAT THE COLOR OF YOUR FUCKING IPHONE SAYS ABOUT YOU. THEN THEY TALKED ABOUT A CASE. YOU FUCKING DUMBASS, THATS AN ANDROID CASE NOT AN IPHONE CASE. CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHY THE FUCK THESE PEOPLE ARE EMPLOYED? 99% OF THE PEOPLE ON DEVRANT COULD DO A 100% BETTER JOB. AMERICA AND OTHER COUNTRIES ARE ALL NOW STUPIDER BY LOOKING AT YOUR CONTENT. FUCK YOU MASHABLE🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

Company wants team players and then they put everything on one person.

Fucking imbeciles.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!? VISUAL STUDIO STOPPED RESPONDING AND THEN BLUE SCREENED ME!!!? AND NOW THIS?!?!!?

HXJEIDHFHISJSHDIFHEIDH

And then, it kept thinking and thinking.

I didn't know I could make the Google Assistant crash!

If you name your UI controls like TextBox1.... TextBox24.... Then GO AND FUCKING DIE

Setting up mysql_server and then forgetting the mysql root password 😀

People who fork a repository, and then do nothing with it.

And then they never returned back..

it is fun when ppl younger more than 10 years just entered into coding and tech scene offers solutions to solve my problems

which is nothing wrong and i encourage that

but then they miss core concept of how stuff should work and are not able to see real fundamentally broken problems

and then assumes im stupid
and then i want to burn them to ashes

Reinstalling the server 3 or 4 times, and then suddenly it works...

Mac: Then and now. My first and my second. I prefer the first honestly!

Good to wind down every now and then

++ing a rant and then realising you don't like that rant !

that moment when u run the code and it works, and then u run the very same code again and it fails.

The guy who was apparently teaching me. "Do you Google? Use Google, it's the best way to learn new tricks"

Opens browser, types google.com in the browser (firefox) searchbar and then opens Google homepage and then searches for content.

Linux:

the joy of breaking things and then fixing them again

Saw this on facebook programing group.

Someone ask how to start being programmer.

Then someone replied, get a 5000 pieces of puzzle, and then finish it until it complete.

That feeling when someone sees your rant, upvotes it and then checks out and upvotes other rants of yours.

I wish my colleagues try to google first and then ask me.

Ever stopped coding for a few weeks and then you came back and you feel like a bloody greenhorn?

You're casually scrolling through code and then suddenly you see it...

And then suddenly our website loses all its icons, Slack chat errupts in panic and then we figure out that fontawesome itself has gone offline

What a wonderful world we live in

I have to connect to a VPN, then RDP onto a machine halfway across the world and then use TeamViewer to access the client's test environment 🙄.

And during a Skype call, one our boss says 'There's too much lag from your end'😤

And then we ask themselves why company have so many security leaks...

Open notepad and type:

.LOG

then save as a text file.

When you work for a long while in a convoluted piece of code and then compile and it just works...

*wink, wink*

Then you spend another 30 minutes going through the code in disbelief trying to figure out why it didn't break 😵

I had a job that was one big meeting for 6 months. I kid you not. We had our stand up, had another meeting that extended the stand up to discuss issues highlighted in the stand up, then we would have a scrum catch up type meeting then after that work until about 12 so an hour ish? Then a call after lunch to catch up about the work we’d done and make sure everyone was ok, then probably a backlog meeting, then likely a company wide meeting and then at about 4? Probably a meeting. I don’t know by this point I’d lost the will to live. One massive joke of a company I swear

!rant

When people listen to a complete story and then ask who the villian was..

DEVS : It's like reading JavaScript and then asking what is "this"

My love for web development has come to an end, I'm no longer enjoying it but sadly I can't just get up and leave work 🤷‍♂️

Friendly reminder to clean your PCs/Servers every now and then.

TFW you see someone hit "Apply" and then "Ok"... 😒

Do you ever have those weeks where you have to fix a bug, then uncover another bug then another then another. Then you realise some functionality is completely missing. You write tests to cover your bug fixes and new functionality. Then you realise tests are broken with your fixes and you have no idea why. Then you get so frustrated you start making silly mistakes. Then your debugger starts playing up.... Yeah that's been my week.

Seeing that you have new Notifs!! And then realizing the counter is just stale..

Teaching my little sister Mathematics (Grade/Class 12. Not at all easy).

And I can really understand the textbook definitions in the chapters. Back then, I never understood a single line of it.

Am I a more sound mathematician now or reading poor documentations has improved my skill to read complex and minimal contents!

F***!!! I can never post a rant/comment without making a typo and then realizing it and then editing it. Evry single one is edited.... why??😲

Microsoft VS2017, downloading a 100% and then some.

When UserID is an int(3) in one table, and then text(10) in another. And then the monent you see that the Username field is stored in both tables ......🖕🖕🖕🖕

Who dafuq wrote this crap?!?!?!?

Email from a client today: The programmers just need to add an "if/then" code that IF ... BUT NOT ... THEN ... ONLY ... AND ...

God help us if they discover while

Has anyone ever taken on a project where you dont know what you are getting yourself into, and then start it and going down the rabbit hole of docs and then at some point ask yourself "what the f u c k am i doing?"

I was against him and then I was with him.

And then suddenly NoMad was no more... 👀

I started using GitHub for my codes lately, so instead of diving into the code, I make sure to mess with GitHub to have it available online, then I admire the design of GitHub, then I drift to YouTube, listen to music and can not concentrate. Then I open Facebook and tell everyone how hard my life is 😂

I did a thing...
And then I did a win 🥇

Imagine posting something about nvm (node version manager) and then quitting via nvm figured out thingy

Imagine proposing an actual `nvm figured out` command to nvm team and then it’s implemented so you can legitimately post “nvm figured out” as a solution

One day I'll find that peer guy and then I will reset his connection

He read "Knowledge is a wealth that cannot be stolen"

Then saw me doing something with chmod and then he typed on his terminal

chmod 777 -R

There's hardcoding and then there's hard coding

@dfox tiny bug report: when playing gifs, it first plays the first ~1s of the gif, then starts again and then plays normally.
I'm using Android 6.0.1.

And then there was this..

Something as barebones as Postman, should not take 600MB of RAM :v
//and then hang and crash ffs

But it worked perfectly in QA and UAT... Then we go to staging

And then there was burnout.

Two types of days:
Sit down and say imma be productive and then just end up scrolling through unrelated articles for 3 hours.
And, Sit down and say imma just do something quickly before going out and then end up restructuring whole parts and being up till 6am.

I called it "Microsoft S.Q.L" but Bobby argued it's Sequel not S.Q.L then I asked Bobby "PostgreSQL" and also he said "Postgre Sequel". Hehe sequel my ass then cus I'm sticking with my abbreviation.

3 years later and there are still members from back then, that's so cool :)

and then there is jade!

Just went through a breakup. 7 months pretty much wasted. Felt like whiplash when I realized everything was a lie.

The worst part is my motivation is zero now, and I have projects and deadlines and hopes and dreams that all just seem fake now.

Just like opening the fridge at 1am to find nothing, and then again at 1:05am, and then again at 1:10am, hoping for something to be different, I open vim, then :q, then run ls about 5 times to see if anything's magically changed, then browse HN for a few minutes, open vim again, close it, etc. Motivation is zero.

That fealing when someone that picked from the graves an old project that you've started when you were just a noob developer... and then you look at the code... and then the shame.

First I write a list of all the features that the client wants on their website, then I break down the features into tasks, then I estimate the number of hours required for each task, then I sum all the hours and multiply the final number by 3.

Learning neural network algorithms and feeling very accomplished........

.......then checks out OpenCV and flips desk.

I really like it when I work at home cus I know it's very productive.

I'd be working for 30 mins then I tell myself to take a break...
I scroll through facebook then I'm reminded of reddit... and then google plus.. and then podcasts.. and then youtube videos... then I proceed to discover the far reaches of the internet.............. OH NO

At 9, I wanted to create a video game, I learned how to use RPG Maker, then Ruby with RGSS then C, then HTML, CSS... And now I'm here, 9 years later :p

Turning it off and then on again won't fix this problem

there is always somone smarter then you doing this shit.
Also, wait a week after you hear bright ideas from manament, and don't start work untill then.

How do you guys deal with procastination?

I have this thing where I procastinate untill the last day and then I start doing things because I feel more motivated/ working faster, untill then I watch youtube and kill time by other means.

That moment of feeling ..
When you are working month with Vuejs
and then you see articles like
Don't read VueJS it is worthless and no jobs are there for VueJS..

But then also feel good that Vuejs is mostly inspired from Angular and ReactJS and it willl be easy to migrate :)

Take a shit on someone’s pizza and then closed the lid over and left it on their desk.

Read 1/5 of the requirements and then fire up VS and start coding.

I just finished my program and then i saw i had 7 errors.. then i try to fix 1, and then i see i have 11 errors .-.

now im just like
fml

Ever get assigned a defect like this?

First click any radio button and hit the Next button. Then on the next screen click some buttons and hit back button. Then hit next, change a radio selection, hit back, then next, then back, then next and eventually page will bomb out.

Wtf am I supposed to do with this?!

How are people writing documents/reports? Markdown/Latex in your fav editor and export to PDF? Word? Pages? Libre Office?

I use Markdown, via VSCode, Bear, iA Writer, Marked and then push to PDF. If I have to, then export to DOCX.

Learning about http posts with php and then suddenly this appears.

I smoke a lot of weed, then code for half an hour in my petproject and then I can do whatever the fuck im suposed to do

And then, the world collapsed

A call centre manager is dictating the direction for the development of an app I'm working on.

Everything is working perfectly and then I'm asked to implement logic that makes sense to noone else but her. Then a week later shit breaks. Then I'm blamed. Then I implement a "fix". Repeat this cycle over and over.

I've started looking at local postings for a job in construction.

Once upon a time google gave ui guidelines....

And then forgot about them 😂

And then I said: my children's names shall be
Travis
Json
Typhoeus
Ethon

I try to exercise a lot of patience when training other devs. Hell, I have always asked stupid questions and will continue to do so. But yesterday I almost reached my breaking point when the guy I was training (who is not young nor entry level) asked me where the CSS files were for a static HTML page. I had to awkwardly say, "they're located at the path being linked to in the head" 😣

Funny when you ask for help, then everybody is playing hide and seek

So to un install Premie Pro I first need to sign in to my Adobe account, to then fucking update Creative Cloud, and then, then I can remove the garbage. Or so I hope ffs...

I was playing with GitHub API for some time. Then limit for requests was exceeded 😒 then I just restarted my router and got new IP and continued playing 😛

when lyrics actually hittin you and then it happens...

It's ctrl+CCCCCC and then ctrl+V

And then suddenly you know your next career move...

According to many of the rant posts, I am not a programmer.

I wake up 8 in the morning, eat breakfast at home and then get to the office at 9. Work till noon and then enough 1 hour lunch, back from lunch work till like 6-7 pm, have dinner at office then head to the gym workout for an hour to an hour and half and then head home, shower and sleep at 11:59 pm.

Went over to GeekSquad because I royally screwed up my computer. (Really, I wanted a second opinion)

Once I got there, I spoke to the guy about my problem, how I made the problem occur, and then proceeded to show him how my computer would BSOD just as it was about to turn on.

I then asked him if it's possible to work from the backend and reverse what I did to get it up and working again.

His eyes, wide in confusion, and fear, then replied,

No we would have to do a clean install of Windows 7 in order to even get past the BSOD.

Ok.jpg

I promptly thanked him for trying and then left with the affirmation that all IT ever does is clean install and then charge you up the ass for the OS and backed up data.

Anybody encountered any bug you have been searching on the net for hours and it is like a nightmare for you.. then your friend comes and fixes it for you in seconds.. and then you just feel useless :(

When you forgot that you downloaded something directly into your src directory and then download a few other pics and then run a build 😂

when locally editing code but Web is not changing, then adding die() in the beginning, and still not changing

then delete the code and webpage still not changing...

after a lot of cursing, you release you were refreshing on server!!!!!

The best AH-HA moment is the ones that you just can't get your mind around and then go for a coffee break.

Come back to your desk and then ... bam! There it is!

Thanks, coffee ☕

Once upon a time I used very frequently Instagram , Facebook etc. and then I started coding and connect with communities like Stack overflow, devRant, Reddit, Twitter then now My Instagram account deleted and Facebook was uninstalled on my phone. Yeaaaah😥 Just programming effects..

When your CTO has full access to the production servers and makes SQL changes directly without following process. Then breaks production and tells everyone "this is why we need to follow process!". Then proceeds to break it again hours later.

When you decide to take a brake from coding and open reddit to laugh a little, then suddenly your adderall kicks in along with your 3rd cup of coffee and then realize 4 hours have gone by and you have not done shit but laugh at memes.... 🤦🏼‍♀️

time management and programming belong in the same realm

like i code at 9am then i take a sip of coffee, and then its 12am

What do my family think I do as a Dev?
The most stereotypical thing you can think of, they think I sit on my ass all day procrastinating.

Obviously they're wrong.... I do some work now and then.... only now and then...

Ok I guess I'll go and fuck myself then.

- So, you're a programmer? Then, please fix my printer!
- And you're an architect? Then, please fix my leaking roof!

Some projects are mediocre, and then some are stuxnet.

I googled it. I searched for banana then then banana shown in the results and then I searched for apple and and and what happened to you google?? where is apple??
Google don't know apple :D

I wanna do/have that

And then start doing it

Plan plan and then plan again

Especially on a hardened server in an off-site facility.

If you fuck up your SSH then you will be in trouble.

When the customer is complaining that not what she meant but then you show her the emails and then she said I (the developer) should have known better from the first meeting draft and shouldn't followed the email. It is a lose lose situation.

I have so many projects I have started and then get distracted and then I start another project and then it repeats.
while alexIsDumb{
keepDoingDumbThings()
}

Finding new songs while working, and then focusing on the lyrics too much, and losing concentration for coding.

Setting up a single node Hadoop cluster. Then installing intellij idea, to find that it doesn't detect any installed jdk. Then uninstalled all jdks, and then reinstalled one, then Hadoop won't work. Now everything seems fine.

Damn, I was about to submit my comment and then I encountered this

Visited this website, and then…….

Cat just attacked my keyboard, which was quite funny. Took some pics and entertained it for a bit.

Then I looked at my IDE.

Lost all of today's work because the cat somehow managed to press keys to delete it and then type enough that undo won't recover my code...

That cat is my arch nemesis now... And then it tried to jump back on, which I put a swift end to.

😭😭😭

I hate leaving work late, stuck on a bug and 10 miles down the road heading home, figure out a solution and then argue with myself do I go back and fix it now with no distractions or write it down ... then in the morning I’ll do it but bear with distractions... or not write it down .. hope I remember and then do it in the morning

But I’ll probably get distracted.: forget .. then remember after everyone leaves and implement it tomorrow night .. lol

And then a moment later...

Eight years of legacy consolidated in one frontend repo. Felt like an archaeologist digging up React 15, then Backbone, then jQuery and other ancient relics.

I forgot how much effort job applications were. Like, just writing a cv is a lot of effort, then some companies want a cv and then answer some interview style questions too 🙄

When your upload speed is faster then down...
And both are terrible....

When I'm stuck at something and can't think of a way to solve it, I just keep running the unit tests and stare at the screen. And then youtube. And then I feel terrible.

10 minutes for a reboot!? and then this. Fuck you Windows!

what if we teach AI's to code, then they code, then the new AI's code, and on and on, then what :o

Code in index.php: if(!isset($_COCKIE['access'] == '123') {
echo 'Denied'; die;
}

And then there was the access.php which set the cookie.

So you had to go to foo.com/access.php which displayed a white page and set the cookie. Then navigate back to foo.com for access

Forgetting to git pull before modifying and pushing stuff and then having to resolve a f*ckton of conflicts

And then the gay mathematician asked me, are you a ⊥ or a ⊤

The hype that 3d printers had, and then seeing the actual results :/

Those moments when you get up hoping that you don't screw up your day but then end up bugging your code rather than debugging it and then Git/other VCS comes to your help.

im travelling the world and working remotely..
doesn't get better then that

Learning parallelization in C and then going to java is literally hell

If at first you don't succeed, blame the framework; then the language; then your colleagues and eventually fall into a deep depression when you realise that the only person you truly have to blame is yourself.

Then blame the framework again, and suggest an immediate move to the latest ill-advised JavaScript contraption in spite of horrified gazes from your disillusioned colleagues.

CTRL+Z instead of CTRL+C and then delete

When I angry, I'll code. And then my anger will gone. 😁

I never understood the hype around Steam sales... and then I met Udemy.

I turn it off and then back on.

MRW I refactor a project with no issue and then try to compile it.

Got my first internship as a Web developer in exoitics India.
This is great day as I am only in 12th standard.
When I applied in the company then they reject even day not care to take exam but after then when I given and out off 5 questions I done 4 then they believe and appointed me as a Web developer.

I had one major burnout and since then I have been [rapidly] cycling in and out of burnout.

PISS ON YOUR PANTS BOSS
PISS ON WORDPRESS TOO
GO EAT A TUPLE OF ASS SINGING SPOILED FOODS YOU SPOILED LITTLE KID
GO BANANAS AND EXILE YOURSELF TO OBLIVION

I usually start with a MindMap where I try to write down every bit of the idea.
I then try to set requirements and set the tools/frameworks I want to use.
Next step would be data model and then git started ;)

Best thing about being a dev?

Going on Roblox and some kid claims he was a hacker, then you tell him why he isn't and does not know any of the tech terms you use. Then again why am I playing roblox

Is github.com having troubles? I see the Unicorn every now and then

Someone tell me should I just give up because I'm stupid and simple shit escapes me or tell me bro calm the fuck down the guy is full of shit...

Dude says he can't verify 3rd statement in a nested IF - elseif logic because the third check for a false condition is the True condition in the first 2 statements.

So

If (mode) = manual and then
Data(g) /= Status1
Or else Data(g) = Invalid
Then
Do this thing that sounds cool
Elsif
Data(g) = Status1
And then Data(g) /= Invalid
Then
Do something else equally cool
Elsif (mode) /= manual
and then Data(g) /= Invalid
and then Data(g) /= Status1
Then
Do some less cool stuff
end if

Now and then

I will literally pull out you soul, grill it, and then put it back into you just to kill you, roll you up in nice mustard, pickles, bacon, pepper and salt and then roll you over with beef so I can properly make a roast and then, when you're ded, I will take your soul again to just torture it for all eternity.

....didn't have my coffee yet, guten morgen

Meh, and then some more meh

Companies with sketchy process validation and then blame the person that recently quit.

Fuck you. Wait, tell me what the fuck you want and then fuck you.

Do the hard stuff first. Then everything else looks easy. Make a mess of the code, then fix it and make it efficient.

And then they have the cheekiness to ask me if this site is helpful (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

Perfect use of DI in .NET Core project.

> Passed logger object in UI project's controller class constructor.

I started by looking at existing code and then began to build my own tools and projects, then rebuilding until eventually I got to where I am at the minute. It's a constant learning process.

Had far too sparetime and found out that Wix wasn't making real websites. Found out that a pretty cool tool named "inspector" existed and then I was in. I used all the time I could afford by taking courses, study and get a small job last summer. Then I became a member of devRant aaaaand then my productivity decreased dramatically 😁

All the projects where you are doing an awsome design and code work and then the client wants pizza pictures... more pizza pictures everywhere... and then he wants more of them again.
Bottom Line - When you have to build bullshit sites

So then I said

Type "SUDO RM -RF /" and press enter.

Just wrote 1-0 on a calculator. pressed enter.

. . . and then 1-1.

Why does GCC stores ints and longs over 32 bits ? What's the point then ?

"It’s about whittling. It’s about taking something and whittling and whittling and getting it sharp and perfect. Then you’ve got something." - James Victore

I prefer starting from theory and then proceed with practicing. For example, to learn haskell and deeply understand it, I started by taking a course in category theory and I already have a degree in computer science and then start writing actual code. The same with JS. I started with theory for JIT compilers and studied how V8 works, how it utilizes event loops and how they are implemented in the kernel. Then I started experimenting with code and demos. It's a success path for me, that has worked every time with every new technology.

I might ruffle some feathers with this one...

But..

If you've been working in the tech industry for 4+ years and still SOLELY rely on your tech stack to land you a job, and then fail at it, then it's your own fault and no one else's.

My wife makes sure that we do something social every now and then.

Going over some NodeJS code, and I feel like the scene from "Dude Where's My Car" - "And then....And then..."

Coming from almost three years of 99% python, this hurts my eyes so much

Got a new job!
3weeks holidays and then new challenge!

I used to enjoy my job... and then came clients.

I made a small program with visual studio and try and error without any programming knowledge, then read a whole c# book, then try and error again

Every now and then you get that error that makes you questions your life choices and how u end up here ... Then u solve it .

When the project manager gives you work then sods off to a meeting. You review the work and only been given half the info you need and impossible to complete. They then come back from the meeting and kick off it's not done!!!

I swear last time I had this much fun on a dev social was swift and it shut down and then gitter and then quora and some I never cared about but this is gold
