How to catch a GNU/Linux user! 😎

Wanna catch an exception!

They see me coding,
They hating,
Reviewing and tryna catch me writing dirty.

When you finally catch the person that's been writing bad code all the time

You know you've made it when you can quickly catch programming crap in other website images.

This site promoted "Top 10 things that make you a good programmer."

Was going through some old gadgets n found this fossil.

Give me the fucken code Blackberry and I'll catch it for you.

Well you do know how to catch my attention.

This is how I learned try-catch....

except Exception as e
pass

😂😂Wrap it all up in try/catch

Error handling done properly.

She: We've been together for so long and why are you never romantic??
Me: What do you mean? I can say I Love You in 10 different languages!
She: Awww... Really ?!?
Me:
cout<<"I Love You!";
printf("I Love You!);
System.out.println("I Love You!");
print "I Love You!"
echo "I Love You!";
say I Love You
puts "I Love You!
msg db 'I Love You!'
<h1>I Love You!</h1>
dbms_output.put_line ('I Love You!');

Me: Hello.. ?

I hope I catch something good today

Try and Catch

Oh also empty catch blocks

while(true) {
googleSomething();
try {
develop();
} catch(Exception e) {
stackOverFlow(e);
}
}

try catch

encapsulating bug with try-catch

Basically...

Fuckin hell!!

Code works everywhere except at one client. Ok, I check logs & see something missing.. I go check the code that handles excel files.. try catch and do nothing.. great.. :/ ok let's log this shit to see what is not ok...
Insert logs, build, update, run.. now it freakin works o.O

😂😂😂

Police officer McDucky reporting for duty. Hope we catch a lot of pesky bugs and complete projects.

Last week I almost lost my belief in everything..

A friend of minde, he's currently learning programming (Delphi 😂) in some kind of university, just told me:
"Hey, why do you spend so much time caring about error handling? I just surround all my programs with one try catch block and I never have to think about errors!"

Ehm. No statement needed, right?

Void foo() {
try {
//Try something
} catch(exception e) {
foo();
}
}

When I saw this in production I cried a little...

try{
unprotectedSex();
}catch(STDs){
treat(STDs).asap();
}

Sorry, but the app had to stay running. It was just a minor exception anyway.

try {
executeMainLoop();
}
catch (Exception ex) {
executeMainLoop();
}

We should totally be able to use try/ catch irl, especially in social situations

try{
riskyText();
} catch (InappropriateTextError e) {
abort();
}

Comment your best developer pickup line...

here's mine...

I think you're exceptional, I can try & catch you.

no try and catch in here 🙊

Try/Catch in the real world.

If Stack Overflow really crashed it would never be fixed since the devs would be stuck refreshing Stack Overflow forever.

It's Friday and my boss let us off work early...

So imma just chill and try to catch the sun

static void TryOut<T>(T newStuff)
{
try
{
self.Learn(newStuff);
}
catch (NotUnderstandingException)
{
// At some point, it will work, just call it again
TryOut(newStuff);
}
}

Should I fix this properly or just wrap it in a try/catch? hmmm

Catch or catch not, there is no try.

How my code is some days...:/

Me annoying our dev:

Me: “Is your npm watch running?”

Him: “Yes!”

Me: “You better go catch it then... 🤣”

Him: “....”

I think we gatta let him go :(

Working on code that we took from other devices company. We found this brilliant thing in one of their function (check catch blok)

Fuck you java for forcing me to catch an exception which will never occur -.-

What if all that was that easy !! :-P

Guess he used try/catch

import java.util.Exception;
try {
public class A {
public static void main(String args[]) {
new Exception();
}
}
}
catch(Exception e) {
System.out.println("Got you BITCH");
}

When you don't care anymore...

imagine the new try/catch block

try
..
catch
...
finally
....
please
...
how dare you?! (Application.Exit())

Today i used an empty catch block

I still remember when I first started using try/catches, what a wonderful day. And when I learnt to not use it for all... An even better day...

And then there is the other guy, encapsulating his entire code on one giant try/catch to suppress all thrown errors, instead of trying to deal with them.

A Pidgey landed on my devRant stress ball...

They see me coding
They testing
The Try and Catch blocks show me coding dirty
Show me coding dirty ...

Catch a sysadmin's laptop unguarded. Put fakeupdate.net on windows 10. I never saw so much pain on a man's face. Priceless!

My programs never crash. I wrap my main functions in a try catch, and silently ignore exceptions.

Just found this piece of code from one of my coworkers:

restMethod() {
try {
// some complicated logic
} catch (WebApplicationException e) {
throw e;
}
}

Why?!

And btw: Hi fellow devRant ppl! 👋

try {
hoes.laugh()
} catch (me) {
me.outside()
} finally {

}

Handle all exceptions with
catch(Exception ex)

I'm planning on making a band called Bar Fighters and will play songs like Integer Or Long, The Renderer, Test of U nit, Learn to Try ( catch )

try {
// code that will someday
// throw an exception. Today is
// not that day.
}
catch(Exception ex) {
// The big day has arrived! BUT...
// I'm a heartless bastard who
// does not log errors.
// Good luck finding me!
}

do {
try
} catch {
// This block probably never gets called.
}

"BOYYYYY, WAS I WRONG"

Holy fuck Microsoft I love what you are doing to Github. Where's the catch?

Maturity is transitioning from throwing errors to catching them.

Tty, Catch and what about throw ?? 😄😄

when you get an exception but the application doesnt crash

"I'll add the try catch later"

Programming Go!
Gotta

all!

Dilbert or C++.....

Currently Dilbert is winning.... but need to catch up on 1.5 months of strips...

Maybe i should just stop here and finish the rest after...

Yay, it's Monday!
And as Monday's go, there's a prod deployment, cool beans! 30 min later it's done!

So why the rant?

Because I'm on FUCKING ANNUAL LEAVE YOU BITCHES!!!!!

Fuck it, it's done, I'm going back to bed.

try {
RiskyFunction()
//a gazillion lines more
}
catch() {}

//Wow! The app is not breaking anymore!

Just found a
catch {
// TODO: correctly handle exceptions
}

In production code.

found this in our codebase today

try {
//do something
} catch () {
try {
//do something else
} catch () {
try {
//do something else else... this goes on 4-5 levels deep
} catch () {
//log... couldn't do
}
}
}

try{

}catch(Exception e){
//do nothing
}

When you catch a bug right before it hits production

Hmmm... Grow a Duck. Could this catch on? 😂

By someone who reviewed my code. "Put a null check in the catch block for the exception....cuz some times exception itself might be null..."
And by that he/she means,

catch (Exception e){
if (e != null) {....}
}

Got a busy day today so last night I went to bed an hour early to catch up on sleep... Woke up an hour earlier this morning.

Today,I found this gem:

static function getConfig(){
$cacheKey = 'foobar';

try {
$config = $this->repository->getConfig();

$this->cache->set($cacheKey, $config);
}
catch(Exception $e){
try{
$config = $this->repository->getConfig();

$this->cache->set($cacheKey, $config);
}
catch(Exception $e){}
}
}

I don't want to live on this planet anymore...!

Next months will be good!

Relax, I'm a professional!

God damnit!
i recently inspected the c# sourcecode of a webservice, our webservice develop references to.

As i discovered a particular function in it, my face went instantly pale.

This golden-hammer function consists of ~2000 lines of code.
In the first line there is "try {".
On the last lines is "catch (Exception e) { throw new SomethingWentWrongException ("special function"); }"

At least, he "tried" xD

I don't want to develop on that planet anymore...

Which is faster, hot or cold? Hot, because you can catch a cold.

It's official:
Lunch break == catch up on devRant

Using pokemon exeption handling on some very important and sensitive back end stuff to meet a deadline.

Nothing like a SQL Script failing and fucking up an important Database right before my christmas vacation...

Actual production code:
try{
[code]
try{
[code]
}catch(Exception ex){
[code]
}
}catch(Exception ex){
[code]
}
Double blasphemy!

Hey... to somebody reading this, most likely.

The problem, is that you put if($var = 'something')
You need ==, not =.
Php doesn't tell you that though. It'll just change the var to 'something'

That's why you're getting that really obscure, doesn't make any sense error.

You're welcome.

read some rants about a devRant meetup?

how do I know they are not from my manager trying to catch me rant-handed?

So this is how it feels like to miss devrant, have a lot of catch up to do now!

Try/Catch doesn't fix stupidty! OR BAD CODE!

When my try catch doesn't works

String nullabity check duel...
null, isEmpty(), "", " ", '', ' ', " null", boolean, NaN, undefined, isNullOrEmpty and finally try-catch

try {
boolean isOk = meetTheGirl("Anna");
if (isOk) {
kiss();
goHomeAndProgram();
}
else {
cry();
goHomeAndProgram();
nextDay();
pickUpAGirl();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
//I don't know. My life is so empty
}

When people ask me:
- Why doesn't it work?
I catch myself often responding like this:
- How exactly it doesn't work?

I have seen try/catch staments and rest api calls on a class constructor! OMG

Roses are red
Exceptions are blue
Empty catch blocks are going to hurt you!

try

By the way, I did catch my 2KiB ++s ;)

Have you worked on a project that you know will deliberately make people's lives miserable?

I know this is very broad, but you catch my drift.

mr robot, halt and catch fire, silicon valley, tvf pitchers.....

any suggestions for movies like pirates of silicon valley?

catch (Exception e)

Like... everywhere...

Worried about your application crashing? I have a fix. through the entire thing in a try/catch and catch Exception. 😁😁

- halt and catch fire
- silicon valley
- mr robot

are there others, at least half as good as hcf?

So I was just watching a show with subs and see this line:

"So just try and catch me!"

The first thought that came to mind was:

try {}
catch {}

The try, catch block kills 50 percent more exceptions than the Infinity Gauntlet

while( me.getStatus() != Status.RICH){
try{
Project p = createProject();
wait();
me.setStatus(p.getStatus());
}catch (GaveUpException e){
me.setStatus(Status.404);
}
** Warning: code unreachable **
System.out.println("I'M RICH!");

Haven't found any catch block that has anything other than:
// TODO Handle Exception

Found this on fb~

...and they said AWS never goes down. Well developers this is a good time to sleep or catch up on tv-series. Enjoy!

there's a special place for people who write empty catch blocks INTENTIONALLY ..

try{

... do something that may produce NPE;

} catch {Exception fuckYou){

// go die in a fire

}

Heard Java 7 provides catching multiple exceptions in single catch block ! hmm .. why need when I got this 😎😁
try {
// do something...
} catch (Exception e){
//log it ..
}

try{
// some code
}catch(Exception ex){
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}

even in Visual Studio

Small refactor. Which resulted in the confident removal of a comment that said:

Ah. Like a breath of fresh air.

I spend so much time debugging because the previous developer has empty catch blocks everywhere in the code base.

Any Halt and Catch Fire fans here? Can't wait till Season 3!

The Halt and Catch Fire writers and tech experts must have lived those days. Totally nailed it to the finest detail. I am impressed. Show me a 10mg (how will I ever fill it up) Bernoulli platter 😀
Great series but warning it is not a comedy like Silicon. Very different but amazing how some things are same as today in concept.

Life will be much easier if we can use "try and catch" while doing something. Yes, just like programming language.

Try...
Catch!

No error handling at all, not even a single try catch. Program crashes when the wind changes direction. Previous developer developed his test plan around his bugs. 😭

First week in a new company... Everything looks soooooooooo complicated, I've got no idea how I am going to catch up 😅

I want catch previous developer and cut his finger off. If you don't know hot the job should be done don't do that job.

You're a catch.

My boss has been working in web development for roughly 10 years now.

Today he learned about the existence of try/catch in JavaScript and asked me in which browsers it's
supported in 😢

try {
m_tick++;

catch(...) {
m_tick = 0;
}

someone was very confused...
yes, m_tick is an unsigned builtin type

try, try until you succeed. if you fail there is always catch....

Found this comment before a try/catch block in some code I was reviewing... seems like I might have to rewrite the whole thing

Empty try-catches are so frustrating. At least log the damned error!

try {

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

Look what the screen tells you. Learn to read the errors and try to catch them.

Why the fuck do i need to propose try-catch to an contractor, so he can fix his application, because its crashing if the input is non-conform to the specs?
Oh and before you ask. The application is a application that processes and sanitizes invoices.

Finally got to catch up on last week's episode of Mr. Robot...I must say, Elliott got my mind messed up with all those illusions. O.o

I dislike people that always want to “catch-up via quick call”. Dude can’t you type a simple message?

So I'm looking at the jobs available and the jobs I'm applying for and realizing that even though I'm never gonna use the 70+ languages (exaggeration) in daily work for any of these prospective employers, I'd better have those languages (and 5+ years of experience in each) just because HR is keyword happy about stuff they know nothing about.

So how do you manage to get 5+ years of experience in something you don't have 5+ years of experience in so that you can get a job where you don't actually need 5+ years of experience in those things anyway? Do I just hit up LinkedIn Learning and start grinding away on tutorials, then stick their "certifications" on my resume? For what purpose if it's stuff I can't get the needed experience in because I don't already have 5+ years of it?

How did I ever get a job in my field if, according to HR drones, I don't have any experience in what I'm doing now?

Listen, i really understand you want to know how much a certain resource is downloaded/viewed and so on. But what gets on my nerves is to sign up my email address every fucking time i want to see your semi-tech-but-actually-selling-you-a-pile-of-sperm-fermented-shit whitepaper . yes i know there is something called disposable email adresses and such... But if stuff is 'free' as you say you have, then make it available free!

Playing pokemon. I'm extremely into the series and played nearly every gen since the first ones. Even bought the cheap 2ds just to play these 3ds versions even tho i got acutally no time during exams and sometimes even played the different editions of the same gen just because i can.😅

And I have the habit to think about "how is it done?" With everything that is displayed on a screen or just blinks. And with 800 pokemon and their stats and subforms and IVs and all that nerdshit (back then compressed in such a small rom and running on pretty low end devices) i began to think about data structures, organization of them and such, especially when there are many big, wide datasets.😪

finally survived from an exception of catch block.

Error while trying to catch an exception.

Halt and Catch Fire is having another great season. Lived those days and it is so true. CompuServe, Compaq, Commodore, 5 1/4", Tandy 1000, Byte Mag, Atari, The Well... The tech you see is really 1985ish. Attention to detail is appreciated by long time technologists.

H&CF is about building a tech business and much applies to today's startups. That two brilliant tech women are leading the charge adds to it. All the characters are great Cameron, Gordon, Donna, the devs at Mutiny and Joe channeling Jobs (in my opinion) is spot on.

Any H&CF fans have an opinion?
