When you are a Dev but you don't want to be single

Girl: what's your profession?
Me: I am a writer
Girl: Cool! What do you write?
Me: I write code😎

I wonder when there will be the first manufacturer to introduce the "cool" new notch design to normal screens. 🤔

Apple, which dumb fuck thought this would be good? ok new mouse, no more batteries it can be charged on a wire, cool you may think, until it actually needs charging and you discover that the charging port is on the bottom, making the mouse unusable whilst charging!!!

This dev world is still so damn fucking sexist, it's driving me nuts.

"it's so cool seing a GIRL doing this stuff"
"wow you're so tech savy for a GIRL"
"you're too CUTE to be a developer"
"how does it feel to be a GIRL in dev"

Just treat us like fucking human beings for once instead of pretty, empty objects.

Student next to me tried to be cool and opened a terminal window and said to me: "I'm hacking someone." He was just running "apt-get update" ...

At work, someone’s desk is blocking the fire exit.

Company: "We'd like to use SQL Server Enterprise" MS: "That'll be a quarter million dollars + $20K/month" Company: "Ok!" ... Company: "We'd like to use Babel" Babel: "Ok! npm i babel --save" Company: "Cool" Babel: "Would you like to help contribute financially?" Company: "lol no"

- Open your terminal, you're a hacker
- Reinstall Windows, your aunt will be happy
- Put on the cool hacker T-shirt, nobody dares to talk to you (enjoy!)
- No matter what you do - self driving car AI or struggle aligning your CSS, you are a 'dev'

When my programmer boyfriend talks about his code, all I say is "That's so cool, babe," because I have no idea what he's even talking about.

He could be telling me he blew up a server.

"That's so cool, babe."

(I love you, though, darling x)

I thought it would be pretty cool to start a pet-sharing post!
(My apologies if this has been done before, I just thought it would be cool to see the pets of the devRant community!)

Here are my two:

- Be a Devrant lurker.
- Only created an account for upvoting.
- Desperately want that cool profile picture
- Need rant for points.

Why is my appreciation through upvotes not enough? -_-

devRant is really cool for us students because it gives us an insight into the real world of developers, something which a lot of schools simply don't give you. I would recommend anyone studying software or hardware (be it at school or in spare time) to get involved.

Thanks @dfox and @trogus

I'm really tired of the comments like "Winblows" or "iShit" or "MicroShit."

Like cool. You don't like a company's product. Congratulations! You're entitled to your own opinion. But try to be less obnoxious it about it please and thanks!

If I had a dev superpower it would be the ability to generate 3D printed objects at will so I could have more cool shit on my desktop.

Me: cool, i organized all my exams to be the most effective, if i study now, i can relax for a few weeks before i have to move.

Interesting side project: hi

It would be pretty fucking cool if you listed what information is needed in the fields you fucking cock sucker.

That moment when a friend brags about how a family member works at google (he trying to be cool and all the other guys being amazed) and when you ask what actually does at google you find out he's a janitor.

So my recommendation will be to cool off first, after any intellectual task like programming — before going to bed.

Corel used to be cool

Ok, I get it, stickers are "cool". However, every time I see a laptop full of them I can't help but think three things.

1) Why on earth would your ruin a perfectly nice, clean, design.
2) I see the stickers and think "wow, (s)he must really be a fan of a lot of tech companies
3) I think your were one of those kids in school that glued stickers of skateboard apparel manufacturers to your backpack because it was the "cool" thing to do.

But mainly the ruined design thing bothers me. Just..... WHY!?!

Does anyone watch DevWars on Twitch?

It might be the nerdiest thing I've ever watched or let into my life. However, it's really cool and I highly recommend it if you're a web developer

Just after entering the office the heat wave hit me. 28ºC in the office at 8 a.m.?!?! Air conditioner down. Damn.

Live in North Europe they say. It's gonna be cool they say.

Work starts ar 9:00 am

WFO: 7:30
OMG, FUCK!! I've overslept. wtf happened.. I'll be late for work.

WFH: 8:53
cool, I still have time for breakfast!

HOD: Hey, Can you conduct web development workshop for Jr.'s?

Me: no issue, Can you share syllabus?

HOD: download from the internet.

Me: cool, So may also be trained them related to GitHub.

HOD: what is GitHub?

Me: -_- nothing its little thing, I will manage.

Since people are posting their Linux desktops, I want to be cool too.

User:
I wish I could build an app like XYZ that is so cool.🥺🥺

XYZ Developer:
I wish I could build an SDK like Agora.io that is so cool.😣😣

Developer at Agora.io:
I wish I could build CDN like Akamai. That is so cool.🤔🤔

Developer at Akamai:
I wish I could have layed Internet as a concept. That is so cool.😢

Conclusion: Don't disparage yourself as a Developer. Sometimes, we should Appreciate what we have build rather than what we wish to build.

Be proud of the Product "X" you are building.
Just look around, you will find a person wishing to build a product like "X".🤗

#developer #motivation #developers #agora #motivation

Overheard some guy talking about robotics on the phone, turns out it was all about MS excel macros.

people need to stop abusing terms like big data, AI etc. to make them sound 'smart' 🙄

I have been reading devRant for a few months and decided it was time to say hello. You guys seem like a cool community and I am happy to be apart of it now.

It would be so cool if you can code with a guitar or a piano.

!rant

People : Hey, cool wallpaper. Where did you get it from?
Me :

for (Person p : People){
if(p.equals("dev"))
return "It's from somewhere you'd love to be and never come back!";
else
return "Ahh..internet..wait, guess what? Don't bother!";
}

I am thinking if there could be one universal efficient programming language that could perform multiple tasks then it had been cool... Maybe it may cause programming languages singularity !!!

Mom: Oh cool! So you can hack sites and accounts now?
Me: No mom.. I'll be making stuff, not breaking it.
Mom: Well what's the fun in that 😐
Me: ...

"I use Linux. I must be cool."

Probably the jankiest fan that I've ever built 😂
I just need it to not sweat gallons on the bus and needed it to be done quick and dirty to not miss the bus so meh.. kinda curious about the looks that I'll get for using this thing to cool myself though 🙃

A random number generator in my code just gave "0000". I even thought that could be some bug and was investigating. How cool is that?

Students in my CS class be like: "This sucks"
Me: "y tho?"
Them: "Idk man, we thought we'd learn cool hacking stuff here instead of java and shit"

CESSPOOL OF FUCKING DEGENERATES CAN YOU NOT READ

PO: Here's a small cool feature I thought of, should be easy enough *shows very basic draft spec*
Me: Cool, how does it work for logged out users? What about customers in Spain? Does it work with US sales tax? Do we need to update the privacy policy? Do we have translations? What's the fallback if it breaks? Who will be maintaining the content?
PO: ...
PO: I'll get back to you

*never hears about feature again*

DEVS THAT MANUALLY UPDATE AUTOGENERATED CODE ARE THE WORST!!!!

Guess who has to clean up your mess? And be pinged about it later when another dev thinks they wrote the feature??

No, your hack wasn't cool.

Writing cool code might be your passion but shipping it is your job. Sometimes they are not the same thing unfortunately... and its ok!

Devrant feature: It would be cool that when you wanna write a comment, it doesn't open a new page, but a textarea appears at the bottom, so I can re-read the other comments and the rant without going back.

When you write something cool but the problem can be solved in an easier way and you have to dump it 😭

Be cool.

Today I visited my best friend. His little son of 6yo also loves computers and technology.

I thought it would be fun to show him some old stuff, like a floppy disk 💾

I almost peed my pants laughing when he said: "Wow cool!! You 3D-printed a save button!!" 😂

I hate it when people dislike things because it’s cool.

“PHP is terrible,” they say.

Yeah! If it was any good then most websites on the Internet would be coded in it... oh wait.

“Nickelback suck,” they say.

Of course. That’s why they’ve never been able to make any money off their “terrible” music. Oops. Wrong again.

What other things are “cool” to hate just because people say so?

Phone-interview with a recuiter from a big consultning company.
Her: So, what programming languages are your strongest?
Me: That would be Java, as it's been used through university courses and privatley I've been making some C# projects
Her: Allright cool. What about object oriented languages?
Me:... Erhm.. That would again be Java and C#...

I tried to build an application in a container, but the build failed with 54 warnings and 86 errors.

My coworker watched the build fail from behind me, and jokingly said "Well... have fun going through all that".

I told him to wait just a second.

I switched out the image for the build step with a slightly altered one.
Build fails with one error.

Coworker just stares at the screen with his mouth open.

I'm starting to appreciate Docker now.

Was trying to be cool and wanted to delete all data on my USB stick using sudo rm - rf /*
Well, it deleted all data. But on my primary drive. So I ended up loosing all my work progress.

CEO : this Facebook app has this great feature .

Me: yep, it’s really useful

CEO : can we make something like this in ours too ?

Me : we can sure try using this(x) method.

CEO : cool, I’ll add this into the sales team memo , and btw, it needs to be done in 2 days,
Me : but... but ...

My resolution for this year:

- learn PHP
- advance at JavaScript and figure out what's so cool about react.js
- be a pro with SQL and learn PostgreSQL
- build couple cool hardware projects with Raspberry Pi and Arduino based on C.

Thank you Google for reminding me that if I start my commute. RIGHT NOW. I can be at work in time for 07:24.

When the fuck have I ever been at work that early? Just because it's morning and I'm awake doesn't mean I'm fucking rushing of to work.

I LIKE TO NOT STRESS IN THE MORNING AND BE COOL AS A FUCKING CUCUMBER.

Can you log out of Facebook and LinkedIn? Cool. That'll be £50 please.

"No matter how cool your interface is, it would be better if there were less of it." - Alan Cooper

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

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

*In Demo*
That's great but you know what would be really cool? If you changed the functionally to something I never mentioned before

Good morning everyone... May your coffee be warm and your clients be cool.

Almost sure the shirt I ordered didn't have fml on it. It was the one with only devrant logo.
Guess now I will be cool and edgy.

Ok so I was talking to my computer science teacher earlier and he said that he would rather use vim over PHPStorm for creating a laravel project. WTF!

Normally I would be cool with it, but he has pushed faulty code to git over 8 times. I'm just done.

Just thought of a cool feature for devRant: rant it later!

I get why the 2 hours limit between rants exists, but it would be so cool to write a rant and the app to self post it after the 2 hours limit expires!

And it could also give a notification that the rant was posted.

What do you think?

Off to the funeral of a family member of mine today. He was one of us, a developer for a cool little startup in London. I'd much rather be wrestling with bugs and support tickets today 😔

Spent today building a 3d printer, and i have a feeling that tomorrow its gonna be configuring undocumented open source code for it to work, but this delta style looks really cool

First we had this stupid Hoverboards.

Now we have god damn fidget spinners. Every Idiot got one.

Now there's fucking Fidgets Spinners with LED.

Will the next fucking Cancer be a IDE with RGB flashing Code, animations and this shit is coming form coding Noob Hipsters and script Kiddies, who wanna be cool???

Kid from the future: Yo Bro lets configure our LED Fidget Spinner with this premade software and call it coding. We will be cool hackers.

The dreamer : doer ratio

"I have a million dollar idea"
"That's cool!"
"I just need someone to do the work and I'll be rich!"

DO THE WORK YOURSELF!!!

As for programming: (will do a cyber one later)

Don't *ALWAYS* only study/learn programming solely for learning it as this can be demotivating at times, find a cool project to do and learn while developing that!

This is how I learned programming in a fun way :)

> My company started posting things on LinkedIn. That's cool.
> My company started asking us to like and share said LinkedIn posts. Okay.
> Since I'm already on I decided to update my LinkedIn profile following some advice I've seen and including some key words. Coolio.
>> Now I keep getting recruiters wanting to be added to my network 🙄 not cool.
I've seen so many posts about recruiters being annoying on LinkedIn and never understood until now. I think I'm going to go back to having a crappy profile so these people don't find me

Would be super cool if the [read more] text was different from the rest in the rant text.

[read more]

Need my vaccine receipt to go to a wedding. And I’m in line to get the pdf document. On the one hand this is some cool implementation for a load balancer, on the other hand this so strange… be online in a line to get a document -.0

Me in conversation with the CTO a couple of weeks before starting the job:
I don't want to be mainly doing ui stuff
Him: that's cool
Me now: HTML

So, my lunchtime is spent applying for jobs...

At the ranters who use Vim as their primary IDE. How do you manage to get some autocompletion working?
I want to be one of the cool kids and use Vim for coding but I am so used to a good autocompletion like the one IntelliJ offers.
I want to be able to browse through every method of an object or function of a module. But Vims build in engine sucks ass and YouCompleteMe doesnt seem to work that good either (only tested with Javascript, Typescript and Elm). They dont show all the correct identifiers but they do show some other random stuff.

How do you guys manage to be productive? How do you make it show only the usefull stuff?

It'd be really cool if devRant had some kind of cli tool for random rants during the workday direct from the terminal. Imagine being able to do:

$ dr 'fuck this shit'

The cool little startup that hired you right out of college/university, that promised your work will be recognized and well compensated?

Well, they'll end up complaining on why you don't work more than 60 hours a week on shit pay, force you to work at the "office" (read here one of the partner's basement), and retain your vacation pay from your last paycheck. That's not cool and also illegal here.

It's been 10 years and it still infuriates me when I think about it.

Sometimes you get too used to everything, that you forget to be humble and curious, to explore and learn new things all the time. I miss the time when I say:oh this shit is cool, I am gonna try it out.

Glad someone knocked this back into me.

@dfox & @trogus

Any thoughts on allowing people to buy their avatars (and others) as stickers? I understand I can just download the pic and get my own made but a built in feature would be cool - it'd be a nice way to say "hey! I really like your rants!"

Just throwing it out there 🙂

Guy sees me on my laptop and says "is that Linux?". I say yes then he says he is into computer "stuff and can hack anything". Not having a clue what that means I replied with a "awesome".

I don't have really any friends that are into "computers", so I decided to play ball.

I asked, "Are you into coding?.. he says, "Yes". Then I ask, " What languages?" He says, " Just what ever, anything really, it depends on what I am doing."

At this point I understand what is going on but it is so awkward. He continues.. "Recently I used.. what's it called abd or adb, you know I like rooted my phone"...

And let's talk about something else....

Why do people feel the need to lie or whatever you might call what happened. It might be different I think if he wasn't about 40.

I feel like this is a pretty common story

!rant (kind of)

I have the bad habit of suggesting "awesome" and "cool" features for projects and stuffs.. (Mostly just for fun and won't give a lot of value to the project, but would be cool). The less fun side.. I'm the only developer (in most cases..)

Me: Hey, wouldn't it be cool if the user could do this or that, or if this was implemented etc.. ?

Boss/Leader: Oh, hehe yeah, hmm.. *thinking* [a bit later] .. You're right, go ahead, implement that feature..

Me: .. Damnit..

But hey, on the bright side.. It's an extra feature! :D

Yeah I'm an adult. No, it doesn't bother me that 6 years ago on the school trip I wasn't cool enough to be invited to the girls rooms eventhough my stupid friend was. Doesn't bother me one bit

I am in love with regex (re in py)!
It is so damn cool!
Unfortunately, Python's find is faster.
But regex is so much better when it comes to complex patterns you would not be able to find with the regular (do you see the pun here? ;)) python's string object find method.

Me before learning to code: Wow Programming is so cool, I am gonna be the Mozart in coding !

Me after learning: what the hell...

Idk, writing code that gets sent into space would be pretty cool

Small feature request, but I think it would be cool if you guys could add some devducks with colored capes as well as keep the classic yellow duck as an option inside Desk Items (L).

I know its impractical to add text for obvious readability issues, but I think the base color of the actual capes would be cool, you know to match your current devduck irl :) Maybe keep the classic duck at +100 and have a higher ++ for the devducks with capes? Anyways, I'll just leave this here...
@dfox @trogus

DevDuck Cape Colors:

#222242 // Purple
#b22028 // Red
#f4f6f9 // White
#f4753e // Orange
#171615 // Black
#3a6894 // Blue

Okay christmas is cool but im waiting for january when all hardware will be on sale

Markdown's backticks on devRant ... ```holly ~~shit~~ crap``` that would be so ```cool```

PM: Did you start looking into that stress testing tool.
Me: Literally looking into it right now
PM: Ah cool. So you'd be ready tomorrow?
Me: No
PM: Why not?
Me: I literally started looking at the tool. I can't promise anything.

You know that USB joke... well you see this cable fits both ways... Sort of except one doesn't work and will if you force it I guess u could break the input

Traffic lights optimizer. Imagine big AI being plugged to all city's traffic lights and changing all durations in order to adjust all of them, if we add smart cars connected to it we might remove traffics at all. It is way ahead in future but would be cool.

Building an amazingly complex system from scratch in Rust means 2 things to me...

1. Really cool tech with great syntax to learn
2. My value as a developer will be going up a lot. In terms of the salary expectations

I really love when I get to learn a new technology, not for a project or course, but to build really cool real-world applications.

That’s what drives me!

Oh, the requirements completely changed? That's cool. I'll just place all my work over here in this pile with the Sega Saturn, zune, and the batman vs superman movie... you know the "it could have been glorious, but it turned out to be complete garbage" pile

do you guys think an alternative to the web would be a cool idea?

like an entire redesign of the protocols, languages, security, etc

Linux is so fun to use!! can anyone give me some cool things to do with it ... things that fuck my pc up would be appreciated😂😃

Why is LinkedIn such a shitty asshat cringe piece of shit stewed with fakeness and boiled with preposterous dramatic assholes trying to be cool and professional but in real life are fucktards.

Starting out as a developer and in absolute awe looking at other peoples set up here. Can't wait to be one of the cool kids

@dfox what would you say about a "following" feature?

Because I've noticed some absolute regular golden rants coming from some of the same ranters on here and would be cool to never miss the stuff they come out with.

As it turns out, of all the teams from my school that have been at the classic Catalysts Coding Contests on Nov 16th, the one I was in turned out to be the best. That's cool I guess.

Jared wtf were you thinking! He is a wild man 😊 Final 5 minutes thru rolling credits was very cool.
Lot of communication and usability lessons to be learned during the episode.

Season finale next week. Can't wait!

Me: Hmmm, tax time is coming up, might be a good time to finally get my new rig
ATO: You you have $4000 withheld tax money, how great!
Me: Fuck oath! spend $2500 on the PC and chuck the rest towards my house deposit
ATO: Yo that sounds great, well how about we keep 3000 and give you 1000? Sound cool? cool.
Me: ... Well... Guess no new rig then

The biggest national televison channel (governmental) is doing a report about our company tomorrow, so i will be om TV
I'm a little nervous tbh

Do you have any cool ideas for some small eastereggs when they film my screen/the office?
A devRant logo somewhere is already planned ;)

you know what would be cool? a pie chart of the types of rants we post…

Help!
Need a motivation asap.. some weird and cool GitHub project can be a good boost to my productivity.
Thanks 😻

Unit testing is cool and all, but FFS...

If you want unit test - cool. But its not drop-in replacement for functional testing!

I believe each release should be manually tested.

What would be the most awesome thing you've done with technology yourself ?

I mean, having Arduino to run your smart house is pretty cool, but is there a way you can top that ?

You make a platformer game and prototype open source and someone uses it and people assume i must be upset because they "stole" my idea. Wtf, i made it fpr the community to make something cool and thats it!

Programmer like working at night (at least I like working at night). Would it be cool if there is a company which the work hour will start at midnight and end at early morning?
Customer facing side of the company can work the regular hour while developer will work at night.

What a cool question... um

My super power would be to intuitively read assembly. I could also focus it into laser eyes. A super power can do other things. Tell me why it shouldn't.

We need a pm system for devrant so we can chat and talk about ideas. Or it would be cool if you could mail to [username]@devrant.com

Who the fuck in Apple's marketing team decided that WWDC should be held at the exact same time as E3? Like how am I mean't to be distracted by the cool stuff at E3 at work while also being distracted by the stuff being released by Apple?

Soooo I have greatly underestimated the value of the shit you can learn in Kaggle, both from the projects that people do and from the learning section that they have. I wouldn't exactly classify them as beginner level or for complete newbies.

By default, if you wanna go and learn about ML then be trady to have some mathematical background to at least the level of Linear algebra, statistics and some basic calculus, everything else can be learned as you go along.

But ye, shit is fucking cool man, they have sooo many cool projects in it. I learned from academic shit in uni and a fuckload of books, but i dig this approach sooo much more.

10/10 would kaggle again

Remember that time I did an interview and it went horribly and I wanted to die then got called back and aced that shit? Well I got the job. Pay is bunkers too. Excited to be part of a new very cool project.

There should be a post type “facts” || “dev hints” || something like that where we can post cool stuff we figured out..

Like how to replaceAll in JS?
“Hello ranters”.split(“e”).join(“foo”);

JS devs probably know this but I didn’t, so yeah..

You know what would be cool for testing web pages?

A chrome window that would mirror my mouse movements, clicks and key presses into a firefox/opra/ie browser so I could test a bunch of browsers at once in the same way

When I am on Computer. I like the room to be dark minimum to no sunlight's and cool. That's why I hate my work environment. The room is so fucken bright. Damn those eye strain.

Staff meetings would be more tolerable if they started off with karaoke.

"Dude, the earnings were cool and all but, man, you sure carried that note during 'Come Sail Away. '"

This binary thing is actually pretty cool! It would be even cooler if we could configure which base to use.

Argh, time to drop out of the zone to go stuff calories in my face again. Just hook me up to an IV already and let me make cool shit!

Ps @dfox it'd be cool if we could take a picture to post straight from app.

I got enough Today so I marked my linkedin profile with “looking for new opportunities”.

It’s actually cool you can pick up to 5 job positions, location, form of employment and let know only to recruiters not all of your contacts that you are open for a new “opportunities ”.

I picked technical consultant, software architect, technical lead, lead software engineer and principal software engineer.

Time will tell if I will be able to find something better then I am dealing with right now.
Customer I am consulting for is cool but the company I work for went over the years from cool to get the fuck out right now cause we only hire managers and people without any knowledge.
It’s probably cause they hired many people from one company that was acquired, probably those who know everything about nothing.

Client: I need you to integrate with this API.

Me: ok cool, but what are we doing with it (where does the data go/styling)?

Client: what do think we should do?

Me: well it would be really cool if we did it like this *short and sweet explanation of really cool functionality and design*

Client: I LOVE IT! Let's do it, oh also I need it done by tomorrow...

Me: *GOD DAMNIT, why do you always do this...don't you dare say ok* ok, yeah I can totally do that.

...now at the market stocking up on redbull

Wouldn't it be cool if you could add your favorite ranters as "friends" or something like that?
I also would welcome some feature like a personal chat personal with other ranters.
Just a few ideas.

A while ago, i decided to finally learn a bit about the web stack (especially django) and create my first web page. The image shows what it currently looks like.

I am actually very happy with the result. It will be my personal little Home automation software, with progressive apps etc. It runs on the pi plattform and can currently switch an IO to a Relais, which in turn switches on a light.

The applications of this are really endless, which is quite cool and leads me to do more stuff at my home with it. So dear devRant: Does anybody know of some nice hackable light bulbs/spots for my home that i can use? Or other cool hackable hardware that could be applied?

Does anyone really like JavaScript as a language?

I mean i like working with it because you can build a lot of creative and cool stuff with it, but i find the language itself to be hacky, wierd and too complex.

Once again, we delivered our semester project and this time, we added working concurrency to an existing functional language compiler, which is pretty cool. But I'd probably be more happy if I had been developing more on the compiler than once again being stuck writing the fucking paper because none would be arsed to write it otherwise...

So for 2020, will there be a new cool language to bash on, or will it continue to be JS and python?

I find it strange how python hate is just popping up everywhere and to me it seems like it just started happening nov/dec.

"Don't worry I used to be a programmer, I'm a cool project manager"

...Scariest words I've herd in a long time

Advertising ppl trying to be cool...

I feel my first rant shall be about DevRant and not being able to access cool features (avatar) due to not having enough points.

I won't be surprised if MS adds a "one click deploy" button in GitHub projects to Azure cloud soon, which sounds pretty cool.

making a messaging app, can you guys name a feature that would be cool that you would like to have, one you must have and/or one that you would like to see in the messaging app you use?

I created an undefined rant. And it never received any attention. I shouldn't be surprised, but I'm a little surprised. Kinda cool. I could create entirely public but unnoticeable rants.

Kind of like my life

/s

It would be cool if you can make your avatar a duck.

The one thing that pissed me off more than anything in the world, is when I was trying to develop something cool or learn a programming language, only to be scolded for 'playing games all day'. No matter what I tried to say, that was always the accusation.

Have you ever wanted a feature to be a certain way but you had to settle with something easier and less cool/impressive?

I just had to and it’s very dissatisfying.

From our CTO:
"As cheesy as it may sound, if you want things to change, you need to be the change"

I was able to build a team based on that, now our team is looked at as the "cool team" in the company.

Best toothpaste it will make your teeth extra white. As a bonus it’ll get you past border security while they check your temperature all that heat will be appropriately spread out to a cool 98.6F.

Im fucking tired that every cool add on for a browser asks permission to read everything... Like what the actual fuckkk ppl!!

Its not social media and that shit, but banking info. ..

If anyone knows a good tutorial to hack your own stylish extensión it would be appreciated

Hpw cool would it be if devRant eventually was able to run in a multi window for android? Would really love to play some YouTube videos while scrolling through the feed

I truly hate PHP because I know nothing about it. I thought writing an API would be cool and it was until PHP stopped cooperating. Why won't my API communicate with my app WTF!? It's like it's not even there even though Apache is clearly serving the page.

Wouldn't it be kinda cool to have a project section in devRant? Like the collab section but for projects that are finished/work in progress. I'd love to see what people here make and it would be a great way for people to get exposure and feedback on their work.

It would be very cool to have a wrong random username showing. But yeah a lot of extra work for an April fool's prank 😁

BTW who has 10101010? Can we do a viral binary hunt thingy among us and tag the person here?

Being the only logical next step, do we have any info Microsoft's acquisition of PornHub yet?

Share your ideas what cool new features there are to be 😁

Aight I’m new to this thing but it’s cool. I’m good with basically nothing but python and pygame. I know HTML and CSS but that doesn’t even count. Welp if someone want to work on something with me to motivate me to learn something be my guest I need help

A few months ago I switched from Windows 10 to Arch Linux on my main computer and the upgrade is incredible. I knew it would be, of course - I already had Linux on my laptop. But wow, on a dual monitor setup, and with the motivation to set it up nicely, it's brilliant.

My question is, what's everyone's favourite Linux distro, and why? Pictures of your desktops would be cool.

Each time I try to study someone else’s (cool) JS files, to learn from it, there are always some funky function calls that throw me off. I wish the person could be beside me and just walk me through why they did what they did at each step.

It’s just tough sometimes. I see all these cool projects on GitHub and I go, “let me try to analyse it,” and then I see all these properties too. Sometimes I feel compelled to just check the API but it seems like I’d be going into a blackhole of never-ending API depths.

What are some tips that you JS pros have?

So.. I have an itil exam tomorrow and every time I start reading I get angry because all I can think of is that there was someone who thought it would be cool to create an abnormal amount of management services and also created his own cool hipster abbreviations to make things even more complicated.

That was all I have to say. Goodbye and have a lovely day!

which would be the coolest stat that you could get from devRant?

i kinda wanna know what % of ++'s are to me, or what % of rants are from me. of course, if this were implemented, i'd think it should be private?

thoughts?

is there a google docs for ides? like, real time editing where you can collab while you are?

i think that would be cool.

anyone else?

I feel like premium content should be available via paid (ad-free), free (ads), or through web user small scale crypto mining, at the users discretion obviously.

I don't get why we have to have these ad blockers and ad creators trying to one up each other. The *option* for low-performance crypto mining while on the page would be cool to have as a choice.

> Developer in a company that builds Enterprise Applications with web client and stuff.
> Had an really nice website a which colleague made with joomla as base.
> New CMO thinks it would be cool if he could change more details.
> Company now uses some cheap ugly website builder.

WTF is wrong with u O.o

Not a rant, anyone else play League of Legends? Just started back up and it would be cool to game with some fellow ranters. Gaming releases my anger lol

@trogus, I need a Hawaiian shirt. My company is going to start serving Hawaii in 2018. A Hawaiian shirt would be cool.

#NotRant - Stoked on getting Nginx micro-services training. should be really cool.

I think it'd be cool if we put together ctf events, so people could learn bash, PowerShell, etc., by solving puzzles. It'd be a nice collaboration, and people can learn at the same time.

Guys I have so much work to do, and here I am procrastinating on devRant.
Anyone else here wasting there time? :D
(not really... DevRant is too cool to be considered a waste of time)

I'm doing a code review on a huge feature, basically touching every part of our authorization logic, and man... It's like my colleague writes his code to be as hard to read as possible. He's 60+ and you'd think he'd have learned how to write good and clear code, but nope. "Let's make it cool cool and I look like I'm a genius. And if I can spend 3 keystrokes less on a function I'm happy". Fuck me.

My (younger) brother used to be way better than me at programming. He was making all this cool stuff (mainly Arduino).

I learned to program to make cool stuff like him basically. I learned Python to start since someone told me it would be easier to start with (it was).

I made a bunch of small programs (shitty things to help with homework, text based game, etc).

Eventually took programming classes in university.

Now I do C++ for a living.

Will joining a cool company help me learn new things Or I'll be just running for deadlines?

On Sunday nights I hate doing what I love for a job. Lying in bed for hours too excited to sleep. Brain won't switch off about the cool things I'll be too tired to work on properly in a few hours

suggestions for a high school kid's personal website? i was cool, eye-catching things so even people who aren't hiring to be entertained

What is a cool naming scheme for the servers
for example we have 6 environments for the QC to run their tests, what would be a cool way to name them

I thought of bugs names,since we are a bug reporting company

what do you think guys

Today is my last coursework submission. I've touched on a lot of topics I never thought I would be able to do/even thought about. I like data science, but I just don't feel so passionate about it now. I just want to ditch coursework and do cool shit, but I never find the time.

Anyone else get somewhat "fed up" of what they've studied? How did you get through it? Just do the "cool shit"?

@notRant
The devRant team seem quite humble. I feel it's quite important to have a humble face to your user base, because without it, our jobs as devs would be meaningless, even if you develop a cool app like {{ $coolApps[0] }}.
@include('funny_meme.jpg')
@endNotRant

There will always be times when you will need to understand/modify horribly written code, or have to work with a fellow "programmer" who is clueless about what programming actually is.

In such situations, not losing your cool is a necessary evil.

Let's be truthful, it just looks cool that you hate Microsoft and pretend to love google

Any fellow U.K. devs knocking around?

Any based in the Cambridgeshire / Norfolkshire / London areas?

We should totally organise meetups.

Hey. @dfox, a meetup tool would be pretty cool.

CSS4 seems to add some cool features. But my favourite will be the new color declaration. What is yours?

So, goes without saying, but it would be pretty cool to see someone from here in real life. Anyone in Atlanta Georgia at the moment? I am currently in here, business trip :)

Man.. I wish I became a barista instead of a software engineer..

Like I know we make a lot but think about how socially acceptable we’ll be once we make coffee in a cool way for people..

Merry Christmas everyone. Even to that motherfucking co-worker who pretends to be a cool developer but can’t code for shit.

Would be cool if intellij didnt just underline errors with a tiny red line that i cant see and actually put like red dots on the side like eclipse.

Probably discussed somewhere in here but I wanna know which Cherry MX keys you guys prefer the most for programming.

Also any recommendations on a good keyboard or images from your keyboards would be cool ⌨️🖥️ #KeyboardsAreImportant

Just installed Signal. Now what? No one I know uses it or has reason to since I'd be the only one they talk to on it. Any cool groups to join or something?

Dark theme on it is much appreciated!

Hello anyone,

Did anyone heard about Cloud reach or Gandy company?

I have an career appointment with those two and if anyone have some feedback that s be cool :-)

Have a nice day!

Think I'm gonna branch out from dev for a minute and try my hand mucking about with my arduino kit! Any cool ideas guys? Robot Arm seems to be my prevailing will so far

Anyone know of OSSU? It seems cool, but I don't know anyone that has any experience with it. Would be doing it part time to fill all the gaps of my self learning journey

Fuck JavaScript!

Seriously, it's always like this:
> "Hey, look <module name> seem cool, let's try it!"
> Find a tutorial
> Tutorial is 3 to 6 months old
> Should be good
> Everything is deprecated
> Come on...
> Back to C I guess.

It's moving waayyyy to fast.
It's frustrating...

!dev !rant

Helicopter! :3 🚁🚁🚁

If pixels were triangles, instead of squares, would this be considered pixel art? 🤔 actually no, dumb question xD sorry.

(Btw, the game where I created this is called Monogolf. It's a mobile game, it's cool, so check it out if you want! [not sponsored]) 💙

What would be cool as a feature? Getting notifications when people downvote you. Let's see who has the balls to downvote instead of hiding behind a screen and punching a "--"

launched major version today which has been in development nearly 2 years. daily bugfix builds for the next month or so until it's stable as we slowly rollout one cluster at a time. going to be my first time on production bugfix duty. man it feels cool to be a full time software engineer.

what would you guys think of a user-controlled news app? like people would posts stories, and users would control what content would be featured in their respective categories. then you would have a feed of all the categories you follow. story integrity will be controlled by users approval and by corroboration.

sound cool?

Since MIT is giving free access to their courses online, I shall study Computer science web programming with Python and Java
as I thought it would be so cool to have a large snake round my neck as I drink coffee.

A pure r&d project! Get to try out all the cool new things. Yes I know it will probably be out of date by the end of my first day! One can only dream! 😉

Here is what I don't understand about elementaryOS: it's supposed to be targeted at users who aren't tech savvy. But in order to perform any major upgrades you need to reinstall the entire operating system.

Cool throwback to 2005, I guess.

Facebook. YouTube.

I went to foreign country for study around the time those websites were introduced to public and became popular among students. It was a cool place to be. Totally different from now.

Now everything and everywhere I look, all I see is people doing businesses instead of doing fun things.

I could work from home sometimes, the coworkers would be cool but focused, new tech would be encouraged and pms would defend devs against crappy clients, oh and no windows allowed, yeah I dont like sunlight (like linus house)

Entity framework core!
I thought you would be cool, but I hate you!!!

So I help I help this guy with setting up a Ruby Api backend for free.. First mistake,
Guy: hey you want something in return like LinkedIn endorsements.
Me: sure that be cool!
Guy endorses me for HTML...
Guy: your welcome!!!
Me: wtf.. HTML???
Guy: Dude your so ungrateful.

!rant
Been working on a project for a pretty long time now. I really think this could be something cool, and I just integrated paypal!

Feels great!

Why can't an interview's process to be more like Tinder hookup
Short, direct wants and needs
You are either "cool" or "nah" in about dozens of chat messages at the offer
Way more less stressful for both parties

So many projects seem so cool when pitched, but turn out to be crap when developing.
