We have a lot of monitoring screens on walls at my work... Some of them show charts... The one showing the last two months of mailbox database growth has started taking an odd shape.

Ran into a devRant user at a random bar in NYC last night. Super cool meeting you in the wild!

Last day on the contract from hell. I'd written a project with one other person in our spare time that performed a critical business function. The following conversation was had between myself, the job thief who was handed my job and their manager, with the 10 other IBM GS "dev domain experts" assigned to that team sitting silently on zoom:

Moi: hey all, what seems to be the problem?
JT: how to update the java for requirement?
Moi: I would assume a text editor, have you tried intellij
JTM: she's talking about ticket BS-101, the data is wrong
Moi: ah, well, you might want to fix that
JT: how to fix?
Moi: update the database and update the logic that depends on it
JTM: what changes are those?
Moi: the ones described in the ticket, I would assume, I'm no longer on that project
JTM: didn't you write this application?
Moi: yes.
JTM: ok, so do you know how to fix the issue?
Moi: definitely
JTM: ok... ... Can you tell us how to fix it?
Moi: yes.
*The sound of silence*
JTM: *will* you tell us?
Moi: I would, but I'm already off the clock, and as of an hour ago I no longer have a contract. And even if I did, I don't have a contract or authorization to work on that system. I'm not actually being paid for this call.
JTM: ... What are we going to do about this?
Moi: I have no idea
JTM: ok, so we can look at getting a 1 month contract to support this
Moi: I'm sure our firm has someone who can definitely help you out
JTM: *heavy raging* ... Can you do the work?
Moi: Unfortunatley, I'm already committed to a new contract at another customer. I also don't do one month contracts. I'm an engineer, not a car wash employee
JTM: well, I don't understand how you can just leave us in the lurch like this?!
Moi: well, respectfully, it was your decision to cut me from the budget because you thought you were close enough to end of the project to get it across the line with junior resources.
Interjecting-JT: I am senior!
Moi: Right. So, basically, you took ownership of the product before go live. We advised against it, in writing, numerous times. We also notified you that we would not carry a bench, so the project resources are now working on other things. We can provide you with new resources for a minimum 6 month duration who can help you out. Also, since we've cycled out, our rate has increased per the terms of our MSA.
JTM: we don't have budget for that! How are we supposed to do this?!
Moi: *zoom glare at JT* that question is more appropriate for your finance officer and the IT director. I can send a few emails and schedule a call with your account representative and the aforementioned individuals so you can hash this out.

-_---------------
I'm free! 🥳 That said, still plenty of residual fodder I need to get out of my system on these guys. Might need to start my own Dilbert.

Sit down at desk

Open VSCode

Stare are my code for a good 5 minutes

Get up

Goto kitchen

Make extra strong cofee

Drink. It. All.

Sit down

Re attempt to decipher last weeks code.....

Mondays.

10 years later...

A decent internet connection, at last!

Let the downloads begin!

My last day at work for the year, almost over...

My First name, is also my Last name.

So it gets kinda akward whenever i fill out a form and when the lady at the booth notices i have the same names on both the First and Last name fields.

She points and explains to me which is which and everybody looks at me like im some 6 year old hahaha.

We’ve started using JetBrains products last year at college
Those are some damn good IDEs!

Applied for my first dev position last year. Interviewer asked for a code sample so I showed him some forum software I was working on at the time. I think my commit messages tanked the interview...

Saw this last week at WeAreDevelopers. Think it has some truth..

Got my new phone a few weeks ago, it rocks a 11000 mAh battery.

Was sceptical as for how long it'd last anyways so charged it last Sunday to see how long it will last with my usage (few hours of devRanting, loads of signalling and quite some firefoxing plus Spotify a lot):

At 40 percent now 😯

So I take an English test at work last week. Today I got the results and I found this at the end. ( context: I’m a humble Peruvian trying to get better at English :) )

When machines take over the world, at least we'll be the last ones with a job

At last, my vue module for attacking the user with a swarm of animated bees when they put in the wrong password is almost complete.

Best use of my time yet.

I'm a Python dev, yet 99% of my work over last 3 weeks has been JS. How do js devs not sit in the corner of a room crying at the end of a day?

Last day at my first job. Spent 7.3 years here.

Joined as a kid, leaving as a grown up man.

So many mixed feelings, and being an emotional person, if I were in office, I'd have surely cried.

Crazy experience. So many flashbacks all at once.

One of my favorite quotes:

"A lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine"

Had to apply this liberally at my last job. Even had it posted at my desk for a time.

Interviewer: have you ever been reported for sexual misconduct at work?
Me: uh no
Interviewer: good to hear! Our last developer had wandering hands, which we don't approve of here
Me: ...

I hate myself. Really.
Last week I wrote a function to handle file uploads and at some point I left this very useful comment.
Do I know what to fix? Absolutely fucking nope.
I want to punch me from last week in the face

My setup at a national hackathon competition in Mauritius last weekend!

Last week we had a short seminar at work about 'listening skill.'

In that speaker gave an example how 'natural' leaders speak last in the meetings.

From that day we are having entirely silent meetings.

Now management is planning seminar on 'Speaking Up'

Had devRant installed for a while now and finally have something worth sharing.

This happened in my last Python lab at uni:
Me: *Working away at this week's assignment*
Dude next to me: You know last week's assignment?
Me: Yes?
Dude: Did you test you solutions to the exercises?
Me: Yes
Dude: Oh, I didn't. Do you think I'll lose marks?
Me: Yes

I can only hope I'm not forced to work with this guy on group assignments...

HOLD THE FUCKING PHONE!

Just when I thought today was my last day at this job they tell me contract has been extended by another 5 weeks... Fuck yes! :-D

Tomorrow is my last day at work and I found the perfect farewell message

At last, free from windows. :)

I didn't know any one of them, we just meet at the TADHack last week end. Because my team members apologies at the last moment, I joined one of them who forgot his laptop. The third came after five minutes asking "can I join"?
We established a team from three different backgrounds, and started the work. Each one built what he know, and we integrated all of it together.
Luckily, we won.... I enjoyed these weekend...

What the fuck is this. I swear every time I look at this codebase I find something more stupid than I did last time.

I can't wait to throw the whole legacy system away.

!rant

Today's my last day at a job I hate!

Which commit will you remember always ?

Last December I made a commit to a Github repo. flying over the arctic from the internet provided in an A380, cruising at an altitude of 43,000 ft.

God dammit ... Gf said I should go "early" to bed and not like last night at 3 am. Now it's 4:20 am...

I've secured my first software developer job at a large bank in the UK after doing Java Developer training for the last 3 months. I'm so happy!

Manager: That last dev you hired is working out well. Where did you get him from?

Dev: *Looking at new hire’s resume which only contains a single bootcamp and nothing else*

Dev: He’s a rescue.

We got a prequalification letter from the bank finally, so: Surprise vacation!

Leaving tomorrow morning to look at houses! 😊 Yaaay! Maybe we can move out of this misery at last!

Working on the road tomorrow, Monday is a holiday, and I’m taking Tuesday off.

Ta-ra ~

At last found the best way to debug 😂

Going on vacation in a few days bug tonight is my last chance for getting ready at home.

Am now applying loads of stickers to my netbook which I'll take with me 😊

best friend works at a gym, and he always remind me to exercise.

him: bro when was the last time you workout?
me: every fucking day.
him: what?
me: I am a programmer bro, everyday is brain day.

FREE!!!! At last, my kids are out for the whole day!!!!!!!
No more nagging, crying, bitching from them while I'm in the zone!!!!

FREE!!!!!!!!

!dev

Wife had a dream last night that I cheated on her and we got divorced. She woke up mad at me. It’s now 12 hours later and I just picked her up from work... she’s still mad at me.

The most useless developer on my internship program last summer ends up getting a full time offer at Google. #DataStructuresAreTheKeyToLife

When you are browsing devrant and then you arrive at the posts you left of last time.

Fuck, im up to date.

Last year at work we started migrating our backend from PHP on a dedicated server to Node.js on AWS lamda functions

We went from 10 second calls to 70ms calls...

At this point our frontend is not even ready for this kind of speed 😅

I wonder if someone ever did the //TODOs or fixed the //FIXMEs I left in the code the last place I worked at 🤔

Last day at my current job

*Anything remotely technology related has an issue
Wife : I thought you were really good at computers?

Last time this came up our coffee maker wouldn't turn on.

🤷‍♂️

Then.

Dev: "Ah! Some free time at last, let me stack overflow something and learn"

Now.

Dev: "I'll work later, let me devRant"

When the boss believes that adding more devs to a project in the last week of a three month stint will "get it out the door faster".

Because baking that cake at twice the temperature for half the time worked so well last time, we'll do it while the oven is rolling down a cliff.

I rage quit my last job, I didn't want to do 'my last comand'. So I requested my 15 days of vacation from the previous year I had at thursday. And when my boss aproved it I delivered my auto fired letter at friday. Since then when someone just leaves in one day they call it 'to do a Dani' in honor to me XD

I keep a bag of cookies at my desk that contain rum. I only eat one whenever i get asked a really dumb question. (See my last rant)
On my way to become permanently drunk at work!

Just got my masters degree in AI
Now it's time to relax and work on my old old projects that i left 😊

Went from using Slack every day at the last job, to now using Google Hangouts. It sure does it job, but damn it feels like 2013. I know.. Dumb stuff to rant about

I work at a startup and our office is inside a collab-space. Last week they organized a workshop called:
"Using the blockchain to prevent loeliness".

And even worse: people were paying to attend it :(

When your co-worker of 2 years forgets to sweeten your tea.. (on the last day of a sprint no less)

where my fellow while(tea > 0){write(code)} peeps at

I got a job! (Not the place from last rant lol)

Party at my place. Bring your own drugs.

So you're gonna underpay me when you know damn well I'm the best dev you've had in at least the last year? Guess who's gonna learn DVORAK on a QWERTY

At last💗💗💗
#free_swags

At last got mine! Thanks Devrant!

On call just started at 2100 last night. Phone rang at 0230. Going to be a long rotation.

Similar call from a few weeks ago that took 13 hours to resolve. Oh boy.

I become Windows insider as soon it was announced. I have been using Skip head branch for my main pc for the last 5 years.

It meant installing at least three windows version every month for the last 5 years. It was a good journey(Still going on).

The one thing surprised me that in those last 5 years that windows never started installing the update when I was working. Not a single time my work or progress was lost due to windows update.

!rant

I've been working for the last 5 months at this job and I'm getting promoted. My manager built a custom position after noticing my skills. I love my job. AMA!

I knew I'm in this too deep last night when I lay awake on my bed at 4:04 and all I thought was 404 sleep not found

I was at a expo last weekend, Kensington laptop lock delivered…

My wife has a colleague that has recently starting to use copilot and "AI" at work.
Wife said, that her code has been utter shit the last months because of it.
Nothing works.

Every last 10 days of the year we have a break...

I'm just gonna implement CI/CD in this motherfucking environment and blow everyone's mind at January, I'm sick of working as an amateur...

The most unusual place I have coded:

At office
Last Friday at 9:05 PM.
No one was there except me and a strange tapping sound kept coming out of no where.
Outside the window, I could see two people fighting.

(developer thing)
I am trying to build code from the last 4 or 4:30 hours at office and she message me

She : it's urgent.. call me

Me : me();

(THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID 🙄)

I am too lazy to automate a task from which I suffer each month one or two hours (for the last 7 years).. Automation would cost me only one or two hours at most!

My custom popup fucked up at last minute deadline

I use Windows at home. Linux at work.

The last couple of days I was "forced" to work in Windows due to the need of Microsoft Word for documentation.

I just noticed today, that when I rebooted and entered Gnome shell again, it felt like coming home.

:)

All I've been doing at work last few days is code review. Damn, I feel bored. Just give me something to code already!

This has been my wallpaper since june, when I had to become a dev at work.

I've been drinking waaayyy too much coffee while hunting those missing semicolons these last months.

The last night my boss called me at the middle of the night fo some job related tasks.
I was like: Boss! I am your employee, not your wife !

I've just finished my last day at work... I'm switching from being a 100% PM (almost 3 years) to being a 100% backend machine!

God, how I hated that job...

The new iPhone will be out soon. For those who want to know what new features will be coming with it: have a look at last generation android phones.

Aah the feeling of going back home after finishing your assignment

The joys of your last day at work, lots of cake and no work to do. As of Monday I will be a proper developer!

Last friday at 6pm

It seems Microsoft have taken my critique of Azure last week to heart. Last week, I insinuated that perhaps hometime on Friday was an inconvenient time of day for major downtime.

This week they've rectified their previous fault, and in their great mercy have decided to take down service at the busiest time of the day on Thursday instead.

You have 5 devs on a team at least 3 of them are working on the same code and there is no version control and we have to rely on looking at when the file was last modified....FML!!!

Guys, I am at that level of personal projects, where happiness is 99%! That is 90% more since the last 2 hours

Last day at work, and management place a "IT revision plan" in my lap.

Nope

Today was my last day at corporate. Got a new job at a small web company that starts next week.

Today I finished my last day at my customer and in the end my main company after complaining several times.

I give them a nice exit email as follow:
Title: [302 - 404 - 503] I'm out :-)
Content                        

that moment when you write 100 lines of code for particular purpose and at last you find built in function for that purpose
f**k f**k f**k

I want to talk about my last six months at work. Who wants to hear it?
Spoiler alert : from introverted nerd to Talkative flirt
What did it cost? Everything.

So, just started my new job (stoked btw). At the last interview - boss: what kind of OS do you work on?
Me: I'm a simple guy who uses windows and notepad++

First day at work - get a brand spankin' new macbook and endure the most unproductive day ever...

So last week, I built my first pc together with my brother. Look at the pretty lights!

Took a couple of days off last week and was at home for 4 days straight.

I picked 2.7kg of mulberries and made jam.

I don’t want to sit in front of a screen now 😭

Last day at work. Feels like a graduation day.

At last!

My 3x WiFi6 cards have arrived! Now I have WiFi18

I stayed at work till 8:30 last night writing tests. It was awesome!

Got home and told Mom: "sorry, got carried away".

Old PS2 controller + Windows 10 = Twin USB Controller, sensitivity working

Controller + DiRT 4/Project Cars 2 = still end up last against Easy AIs

Maybe I just suck at driving and playing real time games...

Well at least I don't spend $50 buying a controller...

Just had my last day at my current job last week. I got this amazing virtual card with 20-30 people telling me how amazing I was and how large of a difference I made. I’m not someone that seeks or needs validation, but to see those comments in writing really made me feel good and like I made a huge difference.

These days are the best days of my life, up till now.

My best friend said yes to my proposal, I got a job at my dream company with higher payment, and no issue at all after my uat like last month.

I hope my codes doesn't ruined my day 😂😂😂

It's done. My last day at work was last Friday. I'm finally out.

Alcoholic Programmer

Last year, I had an inevitable programming session while I was drunk. I didn't struggle at all. I programmed like composing a poem. Btw I have been programming for last 18 years and never enjoyed this much after college programming labs.
Since then I've been drinking before complicated logics and never disappointed.

Tl;dr. Programming is fun, but programming is unparalleled when drunk.

I was cleaning and found this draw I made at class when I was at university (the last days of the semester).

Title for the image?

Today is my last day at my current employer(a big german insurance company, boring af) and next monday I start at a medium sized company in an R&D position 😁

My (optimistic) brain at 11:30pm right before bed: "You should totally wake up extra early tomorrow to FINALLY finish that last 5% of your side project that has taken you 10x longer to do than the first 95%!"

My (sleepy) brain at 7:00am: *Hits snooze.* "Eh, there's always tomorrow!"

Last day at work.. Any cool suggestions..?

My Mum called me at 3am and woke me up last night so this morning I built a bot to message her at 3am. See how she likes it.

I'm getting really good at SQL, last year it appeared me to be very difficult but finally, it's easier than I thought

I got job offer from company that makes AI product that works like electric fence for people, tracks their work and report to managers so they know when to meet and talk with this person.

Some Fucking Behavioral Shit. Well I’m tracking this company to see who they got acquired by and at the same time get the fuck out from this smart phone operating system.

Mother fuckers want to know all about everything and everyone.

At this point I saw my face in front of robot being my boss and started to questioning my life. Maybe that’s it.

Maybe it’s just last days, last year, last hour, last minute, last second…

Last day of internship:
"You will not become a developer, at best you will be a code writter".

That struck hard at the time.

I've spent the last day at work playing Paperclips 📎. I fucking hate the author of that time eating machine!

When I get mad I purposefully just throw css at the bottom of the last css file references and declare everything with !important.

Sorry future self..figure it out next time.

I had a weird dream last night: at the office, my co-worker sliding a wide rubber band over my cup of coffee up and down 🤔☕

Woke up this morning to Amazon charging me over $100 bucks for the web services I used at my Hackathon last month. What the hell, I thought the free tier covered that?

At last got stickers 😍
Thanks devrant

So, I finally got a bicycle today. Time to start working on my health...

Am I the only one who's daily regime was:
1 - Go to work, sit around for 8 to 9 hours
2 - Come home, sit around for 8 to 9 hours
3 - Sleep for 8 hours
Goto 1?

I was surprised how the bikes these days are so incredibly light. I could lift it and keep it up no problem!

Not starting sooner. I’m 28 and started last year. I wish I had started 6 years ago at least...

I had 2 features I coded pushed to prod today at work! It's my first week at my new job. It made me realize how toxic and detrimental my last job was to both my self esteem and career. I'm so happy!!

Today was my last day at my old job. At my last monthly review, the CEO actually said to me how things would be much better if I were making enough sales happen on the websites to justify my (very low) annual salary. I checked the numbers on my way out the door. In the past 8 months I definitely cleared that threshold and then some. I wonder if he would've given me the next 4 months off with pay. LOL

Watched Fast & Furious 8 with a few dev friends last night and laughed our asses off at the 'hacking' scenes. Seriously what the fuck was that.

Couldn't sleep last night so I woke up at 5 am and started coding. Do I have a problem guys?

The akward moment your boss asks if you finished implementing all the business rules when he didnt reply at the last hundreds of emails that you sent about specifying what are those rules!

Last day at $JOB.

I rickrolled the entire company.

GG

Let's call this a !rant haha

Yesterday and today are my last days at this company, and for some unexplainable reason, every bug that I've been assigned is been easy to fix, every junit that I've written has passed at the first time!

Damn, best last days ever XD

Last monday I started using a mechanical keyboard at my workplace and now the ones who are in my same room probably want to kill me...! 😉

Productivity is at an all time low because last night just before sleeping I fought with my girlfriend for sharing a click bait link on her Facebook.

#patchfriday

Last time I spend my night at the DC and doing maintenance, I am going to miss this.

As usual, I guess I am getting depressed again. Happens at the last week every month.

This is like my personal PMS. And have no idea how to overcome this. FML.

Friends were having great and fun time last night partying after (also) last week partying.
And now someone's having friends over for dinner in the shared kitchen.
While here I am hours staring at my screen trying to break the algorithm.

______________________________
Me : Enough with coding! I need social life!
5 min later :
*Checking devrant and reddit/programminghumor

* Sigh * Found this in an open source project, time to make a PR that'll never get looked at. \

(first and last lines)

Sitting in the couch at night with devRant opened. Wondering why I haven't ranted in the past 3 days considering I'm pretty regular at ranting.

Then I remember I DIDN'T DO SHIT in the last 3 F*cking days

try {
thesis.defend();
} catch(TimeoutException reached) {
thesis.attack();
throw new Thesis aimedAt(theProfessorsFaces);
}

Sooooo I learn c. Programmed antivirus project last night, and there is 13, 374 bytes of memory leak. (BTW the program crashes at return 0). *Rage and despair*

I am never watching Black Mirror again, getting the viewer to empathise and feel sorry for someone then at the last second going "oh aye he's a pedo" is fucked up man, fucked up

Looking at Slack, it seems like several people were working past 8pm last night. I refuse to feel guilty for only working 40 hours a week. That's all on them.

MRW I start my new job and look at the code that the last developer left

Looking blankly at the code review that I'm supposed to do whilst listening to HP & The Deathly Hallows for the last hour. It's a long Friday here fellas!

Why do recruiters keep thinking they can contact me 5 months after i last spoke to them? Look at me LinkedIn. I have a job!

Yeah this baby got completed at last💗

(I hope the gif isn't too much pixelated)
Maybe i should write an article for it.😅

I just wrote my final and last exam. First graduate in my family. No more semester. Am so excited. At least I can concentrate on coding now full time time

Battling though multiple health issues, was not able to concentrate on work at all for last 3 months .

But still got a good evaluation and salary bump. I feel like I didn’t deserve it at all

There are so many things in head, just want to be healthy again so I can work at my 100%

Having a meeting on your last day at the job feels weird.

Like do you think I care?

This Halloween we didn't get anyone turning up at the door.

I wonder if it's because last time we gave them apples?

At least their parents were happy 🎃

Last day at work this week, feeks good.
On Friday I am flying to Frankfurt to meet up with other Star Citizen fans at CitizenCon

I just bought my laptop last year.
But I already crash it several times due to my horrendous C++ programs.
Lifespan is greatly reduced.

/*Please bear with me, sweety!
At least, until graduation!*/
: /

I just finished my last day at my toxic office that is falling to pieces.

Oh that's such a relief off my shoulders now.

On to bigger, better, and much more enjoyable things come Monday morning!!!

Alright, that’s IT. I am going to just auto-find that fucking mentions and URLs myself, because the offset system in devRant’s metadata is completely unpredictable. Really.

For context look at my last rant (I think).

!rant

Unity for Linux actually works 🤟🤟🤟

Last time I checked it didn’t go well at all. Has been years ago though..

Now lets start building some 3D stuff.

tomorrow is finally the last day of a 2.5yr odyssey at the worst client project ever in my 20yr work life. I have the feeling that I have lost at least 10 years of my life there. I suffered from immense boreout, followed by a burnout and I will take 6 month off now in hope to recover from that.

left work last night at 4am, leaving the laptop at the office disgustes. now i feel insecure for leaving it there on a sunday

At last the moment of UPDATE with no WHERE came for me

The last time jeeper posted at all was seven days ago. He said he was sick in his last comment.

I'm pretty sure hes dead jim.

Should we start planning the funeral?

Contest is over. I accidentally submitted broken code at the last minute so this is my unofficial placement.

!rant well that was it. Had my last day at work yesterday - let's see what the future has to offer for me :)

Don't let PHP be the last language you code after other languages at the end of the day.

Been staring at:
$message = "Hello " + $name;

For a whole hour trying to figure out what's wrong.

Tomorrow, I'll start my last year of study at a web development school.

At the end of it I'll get a title that'll allow me to get recognition around the world, but the school doesn't end until 9th September 2018, so in roughly in a year.

I'm honestly shitting my pants, wish me luck 😅

Yo, where's @g-m-f at ?
Haven't heard from him in last few months, his puns were sharper than a toothpick and shorter than a 3 minute jack-off

At my last place we launched a new payment page and added logging.

Who ever set the logging up didn't obfuscate the user card details and stored them in the db for anyone with access to see. :-O

Received at last!!

Client asking the same damn questions they asked last week. So frustrating .. wait... I'm looking at the email from last week. Never mind.

Last Month I was working at a place as a intern and also working at another place as a Tech Consultant/Proj manager, managing interns at the same time.
What a emotional rollercoaster it was..............

A very suspicious thing happened at work last Friday, security team told me to uninstall adblockplus and disconnect.me plugin 😟

quit my job. Last day at work yesterday... should have recieved my final pay check today.... but No luck - No paycheck :-(

At my last work place I wanted to visit a Conference for a long time but my boss never even was interested in at least helping me with the price of the tickets.

Now at my new job 2 Weeks in and I already got tickets for the w-jax in Munich <3

I'm soooooo exited :D

Hate the urge to rewrite, when a new major version of your JS library is out....

Especially when you're at the last laps of your project...

Restrictions are down! Let's get out to breathe some fresh air at last!

Outdoors: people smoking

I am using Permiso for runtime permissions in Marshmallow and up. So I spent hours finding a way to check if a user has selected "never ask again" while denying permission. And at last found it.

Manager does nothing but give me more work. Can't code. doesn't even get git issues. Last in first out yet I'm first in last out. At end of meeting he says, "great job but one comment, you should say 'We' not 'I', cuz this is a team effort"

Are you fucking kidding me dude? Add it as another issue.... Oh wait

Finally. Fuck the exams (eventhough they went quite well). At last I can start work on my scripting language

Looks at last commit, what the hell was i saying in this commit message?!

Last day at work: goodbye overnight sessions breeding over some arcane legacy code that blew up in prod or manually restoring dozens of backups because the customer continued to work while systems went down due to power failure.

Colleagues last commit message at that place: It just works (Friday 8pm then shipping the code to prod)

Office internet has been slow as shit the last few days because at least three employees are all individually streaming the Olympics to their machines... and one overlayed on top of the server status monitor.

... Ok now this is a new error.
Some progress at last.

Non-devs will never understand the satisfaction when you see your tests run successfully on GitLab for the first time. (Last course at university and we are supposed to do TDD for the first time. )

Pissed af at my idiot teammates for dragging down my project grades. But I believe this won't be the last time as there are more idiots out there.

I need the credits to graduate .. sigh...
: /

Dev: When can we deploy these changes that will improve the services?

Managers: Later, we're at a critical point right now.

..said every day for last four months

Some of the rants this week have been really touching and amazing. This small community holds within itself so many amazing stories.
The most intense day for me was my last day at my first job. It was sad to see some of the best developers I had personally known for the last time. I learnt a lot there and had some really fabulous moments.

That feeling when at the last minute, after an interview they decided to reject your application 😢

Trying to learn Spanish for last 10 years and in the time, I have used at least 20 programming languages.

Nothing is as easy as it is.

It was five years ago tomorrow when Greta predicted the end of the world. Enjoy your last day on Earth today. ;-) We are at the point of no return.

She deleted her tweet. Wonder why?

Officially on vacations! YEA BOI!

Start to learn a language
Get distracted by other work for few days
Start over again

Last night's cronjob was the first time I broke everything on the network via my automation. Fixed it before business hours of our clients.

At least I learned my lesson? 😀😁😂🤣😃😃😄😅

The feeling of finally getting an SSD, time to nuke the current windows install and start from scratch. The last year was hell for my laptop at installing and uninstalling various programs.

Best: getting hired for my first job at a digital marketing agency.
Worst: watching everyone else quit around me, culminating in my team leader, the last team member besides me

Well last 2 days at my dream job and after the 8th time they've contracted me they still haven't come close to offering me a position... Do I have the right to be pissed off? Because I am! >.<

Got my stickers at last! Thank you! Perfect Thanksgiving present!

When you read an article that WhatsApp's end of support is the last nail in the coffin of Windows Phone and you are like: "But I don't care about WhatsApp at all..." 😅

P.S. W10M user here.

New year resolution: resume a personal project I put aside for the last 5 years, and keep at it for a while.

5/6 years ago I was pissed that no mobile game uses touch interface to detect "spells" being drawn on the screen and decided to have a go at it. I remember a game of the 90s doing that with the mouse, which was super cool at the time.

I had a working (but ugly) game, but the last 20% to publish the game was more than my motivation allowed at the time and I let it rot.

Let's see if I can get it done this time.

Ever work for a really big company and at the end of the year read the statement on how much profit they made?

Looking back at last years, while looking at the new codebase i'm working on and asking

"How does this shit, equal that much money"

Always add extra days when giving a deadline, just in case you don't get fucked at last stage.

Last day at this job. Fixing a printer and then exploring electron apps until 5 because no one's giving me anything to do

Damn, since my last rant where I was complaining about me having big troubles coding stuff when asked by an exercise or given instructions, I feel like I've made huge progress now, by sticking a bit to my "at least 5 exercises a day" routine, now as soon as I code, it comes to me more and more naturally.
I'm so glad I can see the practice really paying off, even thanks to a simple function working great at the first compile makes me feel warm inside even tho it ain't gonna last long.

I gave my team 2 weeks notice last week. Now, every time something “stupid” happens, this is how I feel! I’ll be starting at my new job in a few weeks and couldn’t be more excited!

Fucking Pixel 6.... Worst upgrade ever ...

Already the battery is crapping out.... As of last night, it maxes out at 72%....

What happened to adaptive charging that's supposed to make the battery last longer...

Should've kept my 4a 5g and returned this instead...

At last! Thank you devRant.

me: getting really sick on the last day of vacation

also me: at 4am my brain is wake af trying to solve my programming problems.
bad timing brain!

Last day at my current job.

It feels like my soul has left but my body is trapped in the office until the end of the day 😂

I was at school the whole last week, and could work on my Ruby / React project the whole time, but now that I'm back to work, I forgot how to PHP 😅

Just came home to cook supper at 11am again before I go back to the office to pull an all nighter to implement last minute changes thanks to a hosting provider in south africa getting hacked last Friday.

I love being a dev but this is one of those moments I really think to myself "your the moron that chose to do this for your career you twit" 😑
