This is the best thing I've seen all week.

The best thing about boolean is that even if you are wrong, you are only wrong by a bit.

BEST THING EVER

I've been slowly increasing the size of my tech manager's mouse cursor over the last month when he leaves his computer unlocked. It's about an inch tall now and he hasn't noticed yet. Everyone else in the office does and it's the best thing ever.

What's the best thing about UDP jokes?

I don't care if you get them.

Nobody:

Senior frontend Dev at my company: "microservices best thing ever"

Also him: "Relational databases gonna die"

Also him (talking to the DB team): "You're gonna dissapear, Mongo is the future"

Me: "Eh... Dude, Mongo is still a database.."

Him: "Microservices"

Send help...

‘The best thing about a boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit.

Everyone that finds out you're an app dev: "So I have this multimillion $$$ idea!"

Me: "I'll do it for $100."

Everyone: "$100!? I'm giving you the chance to be part of the next best thing!"

Me: "Well I guess the 'next best thing' isn't even worth $100."

I literally don't even like telling people what I do 😒

Best thing about being a dev? Non techies can't question your reasoning.

Oh, and Dilbert.

Jesus fucking christ, entering w3schools.com (don't ask) and I immediately get a cookie consent thing shoved in my face.

WHY?! Please don't tell me it's so I can get the 'best experience' because that's straight out bullshit. I don't need cookies and you fucking name it to get 'the best fucking experience' while looking up again how that one PHP or HTML or CSS or WHAT-THE-FUCK-EVER thing worked.

E-v-e-r-y GODDAMN site has this nowadays, to 'improve my experience' - I block ads anyways so what's the motherfucking point?!

Mother of FUCKING god.

I'm logging my DevRant time as training ... I read all these dumb things that people do, and make mental notes so that I don't do the same thing. Best. Training. Ever.

What's the best thing thing about UDP jokes?

I don't care if you get them.

I have the best gf in the world.
She tries to understand what I spend so many hours working on, even though she has little interest in it. She is seriously patient with me and lets me do my thing just because she knows it makes me happy.

Just found devrant. Best thing that happened this week.

Best thing about devRant is that if I rant here, I don't need to look like a jaded sociopath on Facebook any more. 😉

Pi-hole is the best thing to ever be added to my home network.

Mastering git has become the best thing ever. I feel like a real code monkey. Swinging from branch to branch. Eating all the bug-eeee eeee ahhhhh oooh aaaaaaAAHHHHHH!

I am a software engineer and my cousin is a Geek Squad employee for the local Best Buy. And he thinks we do the same thing.

So apparentally devRant has a youtube channel where they re-create Rants as animations.

This is the best thing ever.

I got a girlfriend. The best thing is I am a Programmer and I Have a girlfriend. Its miracle

Best way to waste time: Debug the wrong thing. :D

best part of being a dev ?

you know why electronic voting shouldn't be a thing

The best thing about a BOOLEAN is even if you're wrong, you're only off by a bit.

Just found devrant. Best thing that happened this week.

Everyone's asleep.

I'm not tired, and coding sounds like the best thing ever right now. Figured out a solution to that blocking architecture issue, too. So: headphones on, blare Amon Amarth and Disturbed, bring up editor. It's time to work on that side project!

Best night in months.

Probably the best funny thing that I saw on Internet today. 😝

What's the best thing to do the day before your deadline you ask?

Personally I've found discovering you've done the whole thing wrong is not the best idea...

One of the best thing about working on facebook is that facebook is not banned inside the office.

The best thing about doing backend Javascript development is that Internet Explorer can't screw you over

I <3 Node

I got a call at 12:30 one night a few months back. Apparently some back-end scripts I edited to fix an automated test setup crashed around 75 test pc's and halted somewhere around 2000 tests. I quickly jumped on, fixed the issue, and got everything back online.

I was up all night certain I would get fired. First thing in the morning the client says welcome to the club some, of the best have done the same thing.

I just discovered the dark side.

Why haven't I joined it sooner?

The best thing about a boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit.

Worst client request.
Craziest client.
Worst accident.
Accident you thought were impossible in the dev world.
Story time, that one time where you f*cked up really bad.
Best boss.
Nicest client.
Most satisfying hobby project.
Best dev food.
Most helpful accident.
Your favorite project you had to trash, explain why.
Weirdest thing someone asked you to fix because you worked with computers.
Most memorable thing from devRant.
Best thing to happen to you because of devRant.

Its 6am and i feel productive, its not even my app got dammit.

Project you took too far.
Best/worst drunk coding experience.
Weirdest thing you ever ended up fixing because you know stuff about computers.
Worst setup you have seen someone have.
Worst treated hardware you have ever seen.
Best skill to have picked up because of your interest for development, but isnt completely dev related.
Best/worst choice in your carreer, what happened.
Sketchiest email a coworker, friend, boss or client sent.
That one accident that prevented you from using your computer or the internet.
Moment when you thought your dev environment would get a huge boost, but ended with a plot twist.
Worst disturbance while working.

If i come up with more ill either post again, or comment here. This was all i could get off the top of my head, believe it or not.

Edit, gotta add this one: Cable porn

The best thing about Java is that you can cook French fries on your CPU while running the JVM

When you start a project.
You pass 6 stages.
But in the end it is the best thing you ever did.

I knew nothing about programming then i came across this amazing chilled out teacher who taught me cpp literally through jokes and puns and here I am still learning the best thing I've came so far

PROGRAMMING

P.S. Here is a meme to show what my mates think when i fix stuff up

10 yrs for github, the best thing ever happened to a developer.

This community is by far the best thing I've discovered in 2016. Been lurking for a while, thought it was time to post this.
System.out.println("HAPPY NEW YEAR!");

So here goes my home setup. The leftmost screen is the first computer screen I ever had about 13 years ago. The right one came next and I upgraded it this year with a monitor arm to make it vertical. The center one is 27" 1080p (1440p was too expensive).

The wooden thing on the left is a ghetto stand for my laptop. Another salvaged thing is the fan on the middle, it's just pushed to a cut usb cable, not even soldered, but it works.

Peripherals are pretty standard: Cheap mechanical keyboard, Logitech g502 and a drawing tablet. My headphones are the shp9500 (best thing I ever bought).

Little by little it came to this and Im pretty happy about it.

PS: Say hi yo my dog.

!rant
I just asked for a 42% raise having an already good salary and got it easily.

The best thing? I helped this company grow so much I barely work half the time I used to due to the newly hired workforce. I can work on my own projects so much.

The best thing about being a developer:
- You can work from anywhere anytime.

The worst thing about being a developer:
- You can work from anywhere anytime.

Finally, I'm full of joy. I just came home after long Recruitment drive and first thing I saw on table is this.
I was totally screaming "YES!!! YES!!!! THEY'RE FINALLY HERE" (sorry for caps). Thank you very much @dfox and @trogus and no doubt devRant is the best app I ever had.

There is no such thing as an 'idea' person.

Learn to art, learn to code, or learn to FUCK OFF!

Talented people can take bad ideas and make gold.

Without skill the best idea will turn out garbage.

Seriously github, the best thing you could do for the black community is change the name master to main, fuck you and your publicity stunts

The best thing about being a consultant is that you keep learning from the mistakes of people who follow your advice.

Just found devrant. Best thing that could happen this week.

The best thing about a boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit.

The best thing about running your own business is that you can go to office at noon on Monday wearing sweat pants and nobody will tell you anything.

Best decisions:
- Switching to Linux entirely
- Learning how to use the shell

Worst decisions:
- Using Windows 8
- Hardcoded passwords (I built a small thing for myself, don't judge)

I'd been constantly working on another prototype for the past 63 hours straight without sleeping and this was the best thing I could've asked for to make my day.

Thanks @dfox and @trogus for the lovely stickers!

It took me around 10 hours, but I finally got a new feature onto my discord-bot. Best thing about it is, that I can basically transfer it onto every meme format

Oh look, Facebook released yet another thing...

*half arsed celebration*

It hasn't been out 10 minutes but it's already the "BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED EVER"

Am i the only one that sees what they are doing. They are creating their own versions of popular projects to gain a monopoly on open source...what a bunch of cunts.

P.S - OPEN SOURCE SHOULDN'T INCLUDE FUCKING PATENTS.

*cue whiney piss babies*

Missing the first entry date for university was probably the best thing that happened to me.

Got to work full time and show off my expertise in "reallife scenarios" for nearly a year.

Best experience i could've made until now.

Installing linux is one of the best thing I have done in my life. But I really miss playing games.

The best thing about having COBOL in my last internship is not that it opens you a lot of new job opportunities, is the look of fear and respect of your coworkers when you say that you learned it.

Got into a big argument with my lead developer today.

The thing is....he says that the Red Ranger, the original one (Jason) is the most powerful ranger. And we know this is bullshit because even Zordon said that the White Ranger is the most powerful one of them all. But his argument was that Jason did best the Green Ranger in combat. Man that don't mean jack shit.

The White Ranger is the best and I don't care what you say.

The things I have to endure I swear.

"The good thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from." /Andrew S. Tanenbaum

Best quote I find so true. Every day more and more...

CI/CD is probably the best thing that I ever learned about in the software engineering field.

Whenever I merge into master, my code automatically builds and the artifacts are uploaded to a new release on github.

Beautiful.

The best thing about a boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit!

StackOverflow is the best thing ever created. Literally. Ever.

Best thing to do when you're having a bad day:

> Post a video on YouTube telling people that you're developing a machine learning algorithm for drones to identify obstacles.
> Show them a basic HTML code on your computer screen.
> Disable the comments

Sometimes the best thing to do is to rest during a weekend and do an activity away from software.

Job hunting is not the best thing to do while being in the imposter syndrome phase.
Especially if one is an imposter.

Best thing about being a mobile developer:
Whenever your elders give you shit for being on the phone too much, tell them that you are testing your app and get away with it.

TMUX. The best thing EVER.
These days I can go around with my trusty 64GB USB3.0 flash drive, boot Linux off it, and use the VT to start Tmux.
Window 0: Editing
Window 1: Build testing
Window 2: CMakeLists.txt editing
Window 3: Web (Lynx!)
Window 4: Research (Manpages and Info)
Window 5: Music (CMus!)
I can launch the whole thing with a quick script. I don't even need to open the GUI. Everything is accessible from the VT.

Porting Java Code to Kotlin manually, just to get a better understanding of the language. Best thing so far, NO more Assertive Exception Handling.

Damnit Java, I know it for a fact that the damned thing won't throw an exception! There's Careful and Paranoid. KNOW THE DIFFERENCE

Me: 'alriiight let's run this code here'

Logs: 'lol the function you did is deprecated. how about you don't do that, and do the right thing instead'

What was the right thing?
I don't know. It's not on their documentation in their site.

Thanks, js devs :) you guys are the absolute best

The best thing about having a split keyboard is that I can hold a bowl of soup in the middle

The great thing about coding is, every problem can be solved with logic. And the simplest solution is often the best one.
Often when I don't know what to do, I just keep thinking about what I want to have and break down what I need for that and in the end I always come to a good solution. And it gets easier from time to time.

I'm sick and tired of apps sucking Apple's dick and making their apps the best thing ever for iOS but it being total shit for Android. Go fuck yourself cuntbags.

I have been learning how to dockerize entire projects this week, and I have to say, Docker is the best thing I've come across in a long time.

That is all

Can i train myself to think like a computer?
Means I wont to the best thing i can do in each second without even thinking ! Just like what a computer does

If coding was a thing 100+ years ago, we'd have quotes by great men like "You won't have space for new ideas unless you shit out the old ones in the toilet." which would be an alternative for "the toilet is the best place to think of algorithms and fixes."

Me: Asking a lot of junior questions
Dev: Stop! Before you ask another question - think for 10 minutes, google another 15 minutes and if you don't find anything - ask me.

^ This was the best thing he said, after that I can google pretty much anything, and hell, I even go to 5-th page of the google from time to time!

When people tell you how easy your job is, the best thing to do is to make them do it for themselves.

Hate those People...

Best thing being software dev in R&D? You don't have to interact with clients.

Just finished a 18 hour coding day (It‘s 5:30am here). I just realized that coding is one of the few things I really get in the zone (flow state). It‘s so awesome how I can forget everything around me and be 100% focused on what I‘m doing. And the best thing: I really feel relaxed now.

.Net is masterrace.
C# gives me frequent orgasms.
Use SQL Server for DB, add to that parallel querying and NoSQL capabilities.
Incredible development speed with EF
Incredebly powerful web framework...check
AI and neural networks...check
App Development...Xeck

If you want to do some of that functional programming F# is the language for you.

And the best thing: .Net core runs on Linux too

age++;
work++;
learn++;

I hope this year will be as meaningful as this year was... and the best thing happened to me was coming to devrant and having support, warmth and love from you guys.

love ya all

My mom’s not too great with tech

she’s the kind of person who thinks I’m hacking when I use a terminal

My brother is teaching her to play among us, and it’s the best thing I’ve ever seen

That feeling you get when you realize that switching to a pure tiling window manager is the best thing you've done in your life since switching to boxers.

My friend may have just found the best thing ever.

This is the best thing I've ever found after stack overflow! Addicted! I so want a sticker now😜

Dad showed me how to build a computer when I was three. Then he spent the next ten years explaining how variables work over and over.

Then I freaked out about being poor forever, applied to one of the cheapest 4-year colleges in state, and am doing my best to do that whole Computer Science thing.

The best thing about Dev Rant is everyone understands you!! Feels like home !!

Asshole-Driven development (ADD) – Any team where the biggest jerk makes all the big decisions is asshole driven development. All wisdom, logic or process goes out the window when Mr. Asshole is in the room, doing whatever idiotic, selfish thing he thinks is best. There may rules and processes, but Mr. A breaks them and people follow anyway.

A T.A. in my university.
He's kind of a java expert and the class was about advanced oop principles.
But the way he coded live in class and spoke clearly how he approaches the problems was the best thing that I got from the class.

Needless to say, nearly everyone that enrolls in that class, starts to love java afterwards xD

When I just started making things in PHP, I always taught that md5 encryption was the best thing out there.. Once I learned that it was the most easy way to break I changed to SHA1. What were I thinking? I now use a custom generated SALT for each user and encrypt with SHA512, should be safe for a while, right?

** PSA to all programming language and tool maintainers **

Please for the love of god have a dedicated examples section on your website where people can quickly evaluate what the thing even looks like

So often the next best thing is going to the docs where they tell you that the turboblub option should be set to 12 in these specific usecases whEN I DON'T eVEN KNoW WHETHER THIS IS A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE OR A LAWN MOWER

is there such a thing as specializing in maintaining legacy apps? because I'm pretty sure that's what I'm actually best at.

GodDAMN, C# 7.0 is so ridiculously feature packed. I can pattern-match inside a predicate on an exception filter. Want to catch ONLY NHibernate's exceptions caused by a SQL timeout? Boom:

catch (GenericADOException adoEx) when (adoEx.InnerException is SqlException sqlEx && sqlEx.Number == -2) { return Failure("timeout"); }

The best thing about a Boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit.

So, today, I've tried Gimp. And...

... It was the best s**t given me to learn and make sprites with.
Seriously, from the moment we know how to use it, it becomes the most useful thing for this.
Photofiltre is called off the stage.
#YouthoughtthatwasarantbutitwasmeDio

I find it interesting to see how scenarios sometimes flip.

30 years ago, the generally accepted "best" thing to do when when interacting with a person of colour was to "not see colour" - to treat them as you would anyone else. Meanwhile the similarly accepted "best" thing to do when interacting with a physically disabled person was to recognise their disability, help them if appropriate, give them a boost, encourage them, etc.

Today it seems very much like the opposite. The correct thing to do when interacting with an ethnic minority is to see their colour, recognise their struggle, help them if appropriate, etc. - whereas with disabilities, that approach generally seems to have been labelled "inspiration porn", and the correct thing to do is simply not to see the disability, treating them like you would anyone else.

Not entirely comparable of course, but there's enough similarity there that I find the situation interesting.

Note to self: stop trying to write literally everything modular, it's not always the best thing to do.

Solarized dark is the best thing that has ever happened the theme-world. I use it starting from terminal to all editors& IDEs.

I really like Docker. I think that’s the best thing that happened in the dev field for years. Easy shipping and installation of software without messing up dependencies to other software.

codepen is the best thing which could happen to frontend development... i tried it out 5 months ago and now it is the most important part of my development process

DevRant in black theme is probably the best thing since sliced bread 😍

!rant
rsync is the best thing since sliced bread

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

!norant
This "Last up vote didn't get through because of network issues" is probably the best thing ever

The best thing about perl is it doesn't care about errors and really tries to do what you ask, without throwing exceptions.
The worst? It does exactly what you ask, no matter how insane.
Typed $arri[ $0 ] instead of $arr[0] inside a function that detected what changes were needed in dns zones. $0 is script name and path, strings are converted to integers as needed and there's a little thing called vivification.
You see where this train wreck is going.
Also my dog died today.
Got to love Mondays :/

Best thing about doing Wifi setup/network maintenance for the local coffee shop for free? Putting my laptop's MAC address into the QOS table and guaranteeing myself bandwidth.

Got inspired to go out and buy a second monitor. Best thing I've ever done

And the award for the best ticket if all time goes to:

"Create script"

No open questions. Of you don't understand, are you really a dev?
In all seriousness, this thing was in the board for like 3 days and nobody raised any questions...

Not gonna lie I have toxic people in my life and I have caught myself in multiple situations where I behaved differently, did or did not do something just because they were near.

Whenever these people are gone it’s just the most beautiful thing to be able to relax (also in my mind).

It’s crazy what other people do with us and how we can exaggerate all these feelings and emotions. The best thing I can do is to get rid of this toxicity in my life and move on.

Anybody else or is it just me?

Best thing about the flood here is Houston is getting to work from home for 3 weeks straight. Getting to get my home office in order and avoid traffic is awesome. Not really a rant. Not really sorry.

async / await is the best thing about javascript in my opinion

😍

The best thing about being an android developer is that your phone stays at 100% all day.

Best thing to be a dev
You create your own tools, problem solving skills that we learn and the best thing that non-tech people treat you as a genius

Learning languages and frameworks after accepting the job,

Best thing I did this year.

I managed to learn waayyyy more and end up with a better skill set and resume.

The best thing about developing for Android

This is the best way to do this thing 😂😂😂

I learned how to program during my MSc at UC Santa Barbara in 1988. But the real thing happened during my first job as software engineer at Chorus Systems, in Paris, with the guidance of some of the world's best mentors, Russian engineers who taught me how to approach code design as if it was playing chess. These guys were brilliant!

Definitely 'ditto' this is one of the best tool for every programmer.

It's a multi clipboard-history where you can store more then one item. You never need to think: 'what's last thing in my clipboard. Do I still need it?'

the only thing that held me in my current job was my boss. verry supportive and helpful type. best boss so far.
but now he just quit 😑

guess who looks for a job ...

It's the best thing ever where watching one tutorial doesn't work. So you go to another. Then you see a suggested video that's unrelated to your current task, but it's a short video. So you quickly watch it.

Boom. Next thing you know, it's fucking 45 minutes later and you just watched some random ass dude's entire fucking life story in his vlogs.

Fuck my life an Adderall would be fantastic right now.

Constraint Layout is the best thing Google has ever made for responsive Android design, when it works.

Half the time it suddenly stops finding any elements I want to attach my selected one to, so it can't constrain what I want it to constrain.

A restart fixes it though...

What's the best thing about a Boolean? Even if you're wrong, you're only off by a bit.

Holy shit interactive git rebase is the best thing

This is the best thing that could happen for people with headaches in relation to updates. Anniversary update brings more control.

Anyone ever heard this Google Home Easter egg before? It's apparently a Halloween thing, but it happened to my GF yesterday without her ever saying anything.

Voice command: OK Google, I'm home.
Assistant's response: Welcome home. I've been doing my best to hold down the fort. But it just wasn't the same without you

This damt "light theme" is the most ugliest thing anyone ever developed...
and my best friend loves it!
Now he was my best friend

The best thing about being a dev? The darkness that comes crawling out at night doesn't scare us. Even when we're alone we know we're protected by a magical screen of light.

Programmer BF before we were dating: I love my job. My job is the best thing ever. I will never love anything as much as I love coding.

Me: K

*A few months later*

Me: Ugh, your alarm is going off. Wake up.

PBF: I don't wanna go to work 😭

Me: Oh really? 😏

I've just bought a new table, I think that's the best thing anyone without a proper table can do.

25 € and solid wood, I hope it lasts forever.

I think dark mode is the best thing ever invented and glad devRant has it, otherwise I would have been blinded by my bright white screen.

*Awkwardly starts playing Blinded by the Light song*

For my AP Comp Sci final project I put a ton of work in, and built a mix of space Invaders and galaga, and called it Space Invaders 2. I created the thing on my own, with no partner, and I did all the art myself too. It was easily one of the best in the class.

10 years ago my bosses came to me: Make a few adjustments to the logic of this website. Should be a quick thing they said. Got a zip file later. Hundreds of php files. Inside, thousands of lines of the best PHP/HTML Spaghetti I've ever seen. No CSS though, but lots of nested table layouts. The best part: everything was in french, content, comments, varnames. The original dev didn't use includes for the most repetitive stuff, even db credentials were copied in every file. Took me a week.

Two weeks later: Change that and that please....

We decided to write everything from scratch then.

If you really think about it, asking a person what their pronouns are, he/she/they etc., is basically sending a REST OPTIONS request. What a technically pure and proven thing to do.

You assume OPTIONS response of an API, you get "400 Fuck You". Or, if that API is nice, you can get "426 Get Out Of Your Cave", but that's the best you're gonna get.

About to quit my job.. looking for another one in a different city for my lady..
The thing is that I love my job, I love what I do, I love my team.. but I love her more.. this may not be the best place for this, how it's on my path to do what I want to accomplish as a Dev and as a human being.. frustration++

Lets share the best thing we've ever learnt (strictly related to dev)...
I'll start -> Best thing I've learnet is lambda programming. (Java)

Best thing I have ever done, hacking into my bosses computer to get the job!

Best thing about being a developer, for me, is that there is always something new to learn and improve upon.

OHHHHH MY GOD I HAVE THE BEST IDEA

Make devRant avatars sing Baka Mitai (do the deepfake thing)

The best thing with a power outage in an apartment complex is watching everybody's wifi turn back on.

Ionic cordova is the best thing I've discovered to this day. it makes everything seems so simple and the possibilities are freaking endless. FeelsGoodMan.png

Kotlin is the best thing that has ever happened to Java! 😂

Sometimes the best thing about my job is that my chair spins..

The best thing about working in Android development is my phone stays always charged

So finally I just got my first credit card!

Now on, I don't need to worry about carrying cash when traveling abroad, enjoy free lounge access, buy things in installments and what not.

It's almost impossible to get credit card here without a typical 9to5 job. The best thing is I didn't have to work for it at all. It just happened. So that's something.

My cs program at university forces a style "guide", but the best thing is, in order to comply you'd have to rewrite all the default classes. Because apparently, an if statement followed by a single statement needs curly braces.

You'd think these fuckers would know what they're talking about...

Udemy, Skillshare, Coursera, Pluralsight, and FreeCodeCamp are all kinda garbage.

Has anyone tried Team Treehouse?

I have a strong feeling that Udacity is the best thing that I've ever discovered in my learning life.

Can you share other online courses I haven't mentioned? Thanks.

The best thing I have done to get unstuck:
Taking vacation

my best career decision?
discarding my original plan to do PhD and get into (natural) science, studying computer science / software engineering instead, and starting software development in a company that builds cool devices.
i really like what i am doing and i feel like i found something that's "my thing".

it took me a while to get there, but it was totally worth it.

I am working for a company that has developed a custom CMS but has no documentation written for it and now no-one knows how it works... Best thing is that it advertises it in its website. Good job!

Best thing: I started to understand how compilers work under the hood (sort of), was even able to implement a few scanners already

Worst thing: I have absolutely no clue how to continue ._.

The best dev advice a dev has given me is to write clean and structured code from the very start of every project. Changed my life in general.

"How you do one thing is how you do everything."

The best programming language is ______.

Rant: There is no such thing as 'best programming language'!!!!!?????

Hooking up a raspberry pi to the smart tv and installing LibreELEC(Kodi) on it, is the best thing I have ever for the family’s tv.
It even works with the smart tv remote:)

Fellow coders, where did your passion for coding come from?
Mine was in school when I had to create a website and it was the best thing ever

Best thing to do after working for 4 hours in the datacenter? Removing the earprotection and hear EVERYTHING for a few minutes.

On my trip to New York I bought a C# 7 in a Nutshell book (nutshell being 1000+ pages).
The best money I've ever spent. That thing is awesome😍

Got new task assigned from my project manager. Client wants to build an Instagram automation site from scratch.
The best thing is UI specification states "Pretty nice and Easy".. that's all.

"XYZ is an API that allows you to throw a bunch of stuff at it, and it will generally do the right thing" - best documentation ever!

PEZ is the best thing in the world ever
PEZ is the best
PEZ is my favourite
PEZ is even better than thick thighs
they save lives, they will be my demise

Current boss is best boss.

Seriously though, he's a great guy. He has a lot of knowledge technology-wise, especially in electronics and will explain things to you without tiring if you don't understand them.

He lets me run my thing which is cool and letting me run too freely/not taking enough time is probably the only thing I'd criticize.

He seems to have a similar mindset to mine which makes it (most times) enjoyable to work with him. I like him personally - though I'm sometimes not sure whether he gets my somewhat weird humour.

What’s the best thing about Switzerland?
I don’t know, but the flag is a big plus.

Best thing about DevRant is: I have 2nd job that's not a developer company and all my colleges doesn't understand a jack shit about code and the culture. But worst of all is that everyone there is "shoulder spy's.... So i can feel safe when i surf DevRant during the breaks and enjoy my breaks with DevRant

I'm not really satisfied with any of the major smarthome systems out there, so I'm making my own and using it as a learning experience. What I've learned so far, is that I suck at naming...

Best thing I can come up with is EasyDIYHome....

Best thing about adulting, having half a freezer full of ice cream and cones in the pantry...

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

ffs windows I should be the one who dictates when you update, fuck you.

Honestly, the best thing I've done this year was switching to Linux, the difference is astronomical.

Not the best workspace picture in the world but it's my first working space that I rent with some collegemates inside a shopping center with 10 floors in Iran. The only thing that annoys me is the fact that I have to get premission for almost anything from security...

Today the mission is to clean more and make the setups!

The best part is the satisfaction you get when you see the thing you've worked on for a long time being used and making people happy.

For me, the best thing about WFH is power nap.
Don't tell me you are not taking power naps.

The best thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from...!

The best thing you ever learned at school.

Schedule an impromptu meeting with my friend Jack Daniels.

Joking.

Best thing I do is write down the issue on a piece of paper, read what I'm stuck on and realise I have been focusing on the wrong aspect of the issue and a different solution presents itself.

Take a step back, clear your mind and start again.

If not, then remember Jack is available after work.

For all things, for all men, that a man compliments a thing does not imply that this man at least attempts to understand this thing. However, for all men, that a man criticises a thing implies that this man at least attempts to understand this thing.

For all computer programs, that a computer program is terrible implies that scrapping the current implementation of this computer program and beginning anew may be the best method of fixing this computer program.

With few exceptions, for all programming languages $l$, given sufficient effort, $l$ source code can be human-readable.

The UNIX philosophy never became outdated.

For all computer programs $p$, $p$ should be written sufficiently well that the author of $p$ can be prideful of $p$.

For all computer programs $p$, a specification for $p$ should be written before $p$ is created.

For all good computer programs, a good computer program can run on terrible hardware.

Every clock cycle is valuable.

Seriously, can we just all agree and fuck Epic Games? And also their shitty EAC. RIP Rocket League on Linux. What's next? Oh wait...there is almost nothing left...

The best thing how they act like their retarded Store is better than Steam. You can suck my dick idiots.

"For front end developers that don't like Sketch". Say what!? Sketch is the best thing that's happened to front end designers in terms of design tools. Anyone who prefers Photoshop to Sketch is a sadomasochistic.

is it bad that it's 3am and the best thing to happen since I woke up yesterday morning is 3 word story on here and I'm staying awake to see where it goes.

The best thing with being a developer is those days when you just bog down and work until late at night doing cool and awesome stuffs!

When you are planning to do a great amount of work during the weekend but you get stuck on one thing and there goes working on that one thing the WHOLE weekend.

There goes my project plan.

*Frustration at its best * 😣😣

After all this time, I've finally managed to apply my programming skills in my day situation (thing I really wanted to happen).

A website had a block of text reeeally long and I couldn't select it all. Grabbed my terminal, opened vim and did a program to grab that block of text and save it into a file. Ran it and worked perfectly. I mean, isn't the best thing I've ever done but I feel very proud of myself. :)

Unpopular opinion: every mobile developer should use Flutter. It's the best thing out there by far.

The best thing about a boolean is that even if you are wrong, you are off by only a bit.

I don't know how it works in other countries, but in Hungary the best workplace where you can have a beer and good time with your colleagues after work. Is it same thing at your country? :)

Hey guys, whenever you talk about your weakness in interview, what would be the best thing to say? Weak on multitasking, for example, would be a sample answer?

“To deal with hyper-planes in a 14-dimensional space, visualize a 3-D space and say “fourteen” to yourself very loudly. Everyone does it.”
- Hinton.

P. S. Can't vouch for the quote's veracity, but it is too good to not share. Probably the best thing I have seen on the internet today.

Best thing for me is being in an environment where I am not only able but encouraged to learn every day. Also sleeping in and working from home are nice bonuses ;)

Programmers are very opinionated. They either think their tool/language is the best thing since sliced bread; or they think it’s the worst thing since the Austrian painter who got rejected from art school.

Hey!
How many of you guys think Flutter is the best thing to happen in the history of apps development so far?

The best thing you did in an interview,that may be got you selected?

Hmmm best thing about being.... I guess everything! (Till you meet some wannabe 'devs' :p)
