Holy fucking shit. I just went to my first Java class at uni (3 1/2 hour long one at that) and I havent felt so damn irritated in a while.

Some background:
So first, I only had about an hour of sleep last night and a full day of work before this class so I was more cranky than normal.
Theres only 7 students in the class, 6 others plus me. I am the only one with any resemblence of programming experience. The teacher also claims to be a linux developer.
This is a three part course series. Java 1, 2, and 3. All taught by the same teacher.

The fuckery:
-teacher spends 48 minutes talking about text editors. Not even IDEs. Just talking in depth as fuck about notepad (notepad. Not notepad++ )and atom and textpad. Those three only though, nothing on vim or emacs or ACTUAL IDEs. 48 minutes.
- I briefly mentioned learning node.js on the side and am now the "javascript girl" to my teacher. I'm probably less experienced with js than any other thing i ever practised or studied.
-professor saw linux on laptop and asked what distro. When I said arch he said "oh no you shouldnt be using that Its not really for beginners" ... Uhh what makes you think I'm a beginner to linux? Or does he not think I should be using arch while learning java? Either way its really ridiculous and irritates me that he would discourage anyone from using any software/OS/anything, regardless of what it is or skill level.
-teacher moved a bunch of content out of the course because theyre either "concepts that are never implemented anymore" or "arent critical to know to master the language". These particular topics that were removed? Multi-dimensional arrays, scopes, and exception handling. EXCEPTION HANDLING.
-he writes a hello world program and displays it on the board, proof of it working and everything. He tells the class to write the same program, compile and run it. Never did I guess we would spend the remaining hour and ten minutes of class struggling with fucking hello world programs. Especially when the correct code is on the fucking projector.

And I get it guys, everyone starts somewhere. People have to learn from square one. But these kids have no fucking interest in this. One of them literally admitted to pursuing this degree for the "lavish life" that comes with the salary. Others just picked programming because they didnt know what else to choose to get into the school. It fucking saddens me. I hope that one or some of them end up caring and finding a passion in this field, otherwise I feel fucking sorry for them having to spaghetti code their way through life to get a paycheck cause they couldnt be bothered to put in the effort. I feel even more sorry for any devs they work with in the future too.

The other annoying bit is that I can't test out of this class!! so it looks like for either 7 hours a week ill be bored out of my fucking mind with these beginner concepts or ill be helping others fix really stupid shit in their code (like putting quotes around hello world so it would actually print the string).

Fucking hell. Waste of a semester class.

Friend : Dude I have mastered Object Oriented Programming. I work only in classes now.
Me : That's nice! Only a Few people manage to master it. Which language do you prefer though?
Friend : CSS
Me : :/

Another rant about my gf

She tried HTML and well, cause there are h1, h2, h3... instead of classes, she used div, div2...

She: "I am not getting anything out of these classes!!"

Me: "Try making some Objects first"

*Awkward silence*

Yes, that's an 18 arguments constructor.. there's 21 other classes and I'm afraid of looking into them.

How "Class ... Extends ... { }" works

Manager: I read an article today

Dev: oh here we go….

Manager: We must pivot to only functional programming, which means only using functions instead of classes

Dev: Actually functional programming is a bit more nuanced tha—

Manager: Any use of classes going forward is not allowed. Everything must use functions! Classes are an outdated way of programming, using classes is why we continue to miss our deadlines. Functional programming is lean, classes are waterfall.

Dev: What about the libraries we use? Many of those use classes

Manager: Wrap them in a function then, that way they are pure which is one of the requirements of functional programming. You would know that if you spent as much personal time as I do keeping up with the times.

It also applies to using structs instead of classes.

Seeing OOP classes with more than a 1000 lines of code really pisses me off.

I love coming home from classes to get some work done on my setup.
My thought is; if I'm going to be sitting here for hours at a time working, may as well make it a comfortable environment.

Just finished writing a script with all the classes and variables named after the characters from Sherlock Holmes. I regret nothing.

Finally i had an idea for a personal project.

I sat down, started sketching up the classes i'd use.

3 hours later, im finished.

Now i have no personal prjects running and im bored again.

Volunteered to fix a brittle component in our app. Turned out to be 26 classes of mostly copy pasted code that is riddled with todos and void of feedback for the user. Here's a pretty representative sample of this code's quality:

I go to college online and I was really excited to start my classes for my major as I finally wrapped up general ed classes. This is a week 1 assignment for Introduction to Computer Science....

Once in college I was walking around campus when I noticed that one of the classes were still teaching Fortran to their students as an introductory programming language.

So I've been working since the summer on an app that uses NLP to record audio (I was thinking of using it for school classes), transcribe it and summarize it automatically

I've been using it at school and it WORKS

IT WORKS

I've actually put an app that I made to make my homework and sum classes up and IT WORKS

Sometimes I don't give a dam naming my classes since I know not a lot of people will see this. At least I'll make a dev laugh!

That moment you realise that naming classes by their XML data structure is not as practicle as you hoped it was... 🤔

If naming classes, methods and variables in your (not english) native language seems like a good idea, please get another job.

Just found the comment

// Wins a prize for the longest class name.

Didn't believe it and checked all classes: We do have a class with a 68 character name.

That feeling when the networking teacher puts all her powerpoints in comic sans

The cringe of having programming classes and your teacher pronounces the terms incorrectly

Confession time.

I mix naming styles in my code. Some variables will be camelcase, some will have underscores, some will be all lowercase.

Classes are always title case though. Anything else is barbaric.

No IntelliJ, just because my API CLASS has an unused method, doesn't mean IT SHOULD BE MADE PRIVATE!

Found this on the internet. credits to the artist

I regret that I didn't start learning to code before I went to university and that I never had Computer Science/Programming classes before in school (which is not really my fault but I always wished for this)

Dear fellow frontend devs: either name your classes like-this or like_this, but don't mix the two, because I will punch you.

Ever find when you're working on a personal project that you spend more time trying to think of good names for classes than actually writing code?

So c# has its own system.collections.list and system.collections.generics.list<type> classes. And this guy wrote his own list (no generics) using an object[] array which always had same size.

When someone tell u that your code is not OO enough, then you start creating random classes.

Somebody made a fake review on my app! That's how I dealt with him 😂

The app is "My Classes" on app store

Step by step here:
1. Choosing a stack
2. What to put where(folder structure)
3. Naming stuff(variables, classes etc etc)
4. Finish what I started.

Today I fixed my OBJ loading and rendering classes. Also, the wheel rotations are user-controlled!

I just corrected my CS teacher about 5 times while explaining generic classes.

WHAT THE FUCK, EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM?!

Has anyone felt the astonishing effect that is writing a whole bunch of test classes, hitting run for the first time and they all pass.

I'm kinda sitting here staring at my screen in disbelief, either these tests all passed, or I've really missed something and they passed anyway, or it's just a lying piece of shit trying to question my own abilities... all are possible right now.

And no, they are not " assert(1,1) "

So my old friend was in introduction to computers about 5 years ago.

My Teacher: Alright, go to the Desktop and start Photoshop.

My Friend: Where is the Desktop?

My Teacher: It's the Start Screen, like when you log on.

Everyone died laughing and he still hasn't lived it down.

Sometimes naming variables and classes. Because the name should be relevant, short and understandable. 😊

Classes are not namespaces!!

Got rebuked by the Java teacher today at the University for using proper long names for variables in the code. She though I was just wasting time being lazy in the lab. "If something can be achieved by a single character, why type that long variable again and again?". *Everyone in class laughs*

Then, there was an error in my code [turned out to be long long int in Java is weird], and I had no clue what was going wrong [I'm a week old in Java]. So, I had initially called her to help. She made me change all private methods and attributes to public. When asked "why?", got trolled again.

Now, I know it's okay, and not that I really care about what my classmates think of me, but getting this kind of treatment really sucks. And if this is how future software developers are crafted today, maintainability is surely going to be an issue tomorrow.

Maybe staying in this stupid country was my worst career choice. I should have tried harder and gone abroad.

after 20 years of programming i finally understand objects, classes and methods. what a waste i am!

You lousy fucking test class of an ass wipe,

TLDR; it fails and it passes all at the same time.

So during a deployment, one of the pre-deployment test classes fails, not something anyone has worked on so figured I run it manually to see what’s going on, but no the shit of a thing passed second time around.

Now because we can’t deploy without 100% of the test classes passing so I have to organise another deployment which it fails again. Fuck this,

React developers, What do you think about the new hooks api?

Will you refactor your codebases to use functional components or just stick with classes (even though the react community is moving towards removing classes completely)?

I think its awesome as it reduces the bundle sizes if you use function components though. I have been working on an awesome project for a while and I'm being tempted to refactor the whole codebase to use functions instead of classes. What do you think?

The struggle of being a gay CS major is that all of my classes are 95% guys but all of them are painfully straight. Send help

There are not enough words in the English language to describe how much I fucking hate general education courses and math.

I don't even want a CS degree anymore just to escape the hell that is called required general education courses.

Like why do I need two fucking lab based science classes? Sure, if you were doing the Computer Science with a focus in Chemistry, that makes sense. But I wasn't doing that.

Why do I even need a lab science of CS to begin with, let alone two.

Our 10th grade computer classes in school consisted only of writing 1 printf statement in C, which earned you an A.

So I was trying to start learning Unreal engine. Created two classes, added 3 lines to one.

The engine crashed and now also crashes when I try to open the project. Learning is on track!

I remember when I first started programming and used to be scared of classes. I was thinking about it after I wrote several today like it was nothing.

Im 17 and Im studying IT in Norway. I started learning to program when I was 9 years old (web design) and then later moved onto Object oriented programming. Now in some classes we do web design, I can watch Netflix in programming classes

I was talking to a CS student here at my University the other day. We were discussing our high school careers. He had the opportunity to take 6 different CS classes, but he cheated his way through most of the classes.

Meanwhile, I had the opportunity to take a huge total of 0 CS classes. But boy did I desire the ability to take CS classes.

It's kind of sad that students who desire to learn get left out in the rain, while people who can take classes just cheat their way through the courses.

Upon reflection, I think that the amount of math I learned in school pales in comparison to the amount I learned about LaTeX. I could pretty reliably recreate the textbook rendition of the problem. Maybe it's just me but just knowing the solution felt too abstract. I want a solid looking execution of it.

I'm graduating today so I don't know how relatable this is for everyone else. I'm just reflecting.

When you start using CSS classes like this: class="fontsize-16 fontweight-700 height-100 text-center button-border padding-2 color-red display-block lineheight-3"

Finally, a monitor that will fit the entire name of my java classes

I have an interface implemented by 11 classes, coz u kno, it's "SOLID". But today i felt my life is a lie when a developer refactored my code and deleted all those classes and placed them in a Utils class with static methods, and slapped me with "Let's make it simple".

For the first two years of college or so, my dad would often ask when I was going to start taking apart computers in classes.

"Dad, we don't do that."
....
"No, I'm learning about the software aspect."

"Never."

So I'm tryna register for classes using my college's portal, and I click on "add/drop classes", and an entire Java stack trace gets dumped on my screen, with a warning at the bottom not to expose these errors to production in order not to let potential attackers know about how your backend works. I guess nobody at the college ever read that message.

I just remembered some joke I said while we had C++ classes.

To see who will actually listen to me, I said : "Hey, I heard you can malloc a dynamic array."

I love Fridays.
Because I get 2 days without classes where I can code all day.

Y'all know those classes where you get 100s on the assignments and understand the material, and participate in class discussions, but get low 50s on the tests?

yea. Fuck those classes.

I always hated CSS.
Then I realized it's not CSS's fault, it's the fault of the initial developer who wrote the HTML code and CSS classes in a weird way.

When programming leads you to god. Or at least his classes.

By far the biggest challenge is naming your classes and variables in your native language instead of using english. And obviously you end up with a hidious mix of english and native terms 😂

Just wanted to admit that when I was in school, first learning about web, my first website used only IDs -- no classes.

I was so proud though.

I didn't think about it too much while I was studying. But my old university uses PuTTY for class enrollment and other stuff.

Meaning a student would log in, view what classes are available. Make their schedule, and then add them.

Through PuTTY.

Never say something you don't know shit about

When you start a new project and you think that you will no longer have problems with git.... after one week you see yourself sending classes to your colleagues via mail to push them for you. Shit man

All classes (with a few exceptions) have nothing but static methods just so that I can call them like "Class::Method()" from anywhere in the project...

Reading Python code written by Java programmers. I have no words to describe the horror. CamelCase everywhere...

You add a pure virtual function to a abstract class and then you realize that class have have been inherited by 23 other classes and you add implementation to all of them. 😕😕😕

1.)Not defining functions and writing the entire code everytime needed.

2.) Initialising objects if classes and using them only for next 2 lines and then destroying them.

Hiii devRanters, I have a TypeScript question for you...
How do I dynamically import classes?

I have a class like this:
export default class Foo implements Bar {
...
....public getName(): string {
........return this.name;
....}
}

and then I have another file with this:
import(`./class-cmd/${file}`).then((command) => {
....winston.debug(command);
....winston.debug(command.getName());
});

the first command spits out something like this:
debug: default=class Foo {
....constructor() {
........this.name = "foo";
....}
....getName() {
........return this.name;
....}
}

and I would expect that the second command will work, however it throws this:
UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: command.getName is not a function

Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

An example of bad documentation? Unity. It has a list of poorly described methods of deprecated classes. The only reasonable documentation is the community. Docommunitation.

Used ES6 classes 'cus I really like doing things the classy way..

...nice shit you can do there...

...

FOR FUCKS SAKE WHO THOUGHT IT IS A WICKED IDEA TO SPECIFICALLY NOT IMPLEMENT PRIVATES IN THAT SHIT.

I always recite borg quotes in my head when my classes need to inherit properties. Your technological and biological distinctiveness with be added to our own. Resistant is futile.

When three out of your five classes at school have to deal with computers or programming you almost want to go to school

My colleague just did a commit with random method additions to the models classes in order to show to our teacher that he did "something".

This makes me cringe.

So out of curiosity, does anyone here with a computer science degree actually use any of the non-programming classes you had to take for your degree?

Struggling to go to meetups between classes, my internship, and far-teaching. It's only about 45HR/week between the 3 but the constantly changing focus makes it all the more tiring.

So I'm required to take an intro Java course at my university, and can't test out...

My professor actually just described constructors as classes, not analogous to, or metaphorically. He said they were classes. All of the students are now confused out of their minds. Should I say something?

I wish I could explain how these three classes were very different from each other.

Has anyone else struggled with CS classes that teach very low-level stuff like in Computer Organization and Architecture? I'm in that boat right now.

Code completion in Magento 2 can be a nightmare.

One reason for that, is that there are always so many classes with the same name.

For example, there are currently 56 classes named "Product" in my vendor folder.

C#: inner classes, inner classes everywhere
C++: inline and C everywhere

This class adheres to the single responsibility principle: it is singularly responsible for the entire application.

I was ranting about overusing classes on python, then I noticed I'm a person that creates new functions for 2-3 lines of codes for no reason..

If professors that teach programming classes are experts, why are they teaching instead of working for multimillion dollar companies?

Freaking out!!! I am trying to stuff as many AP courses as I can into my schedule. I can handle it but I can't take everything I want!! I also have to make some great projects so that I can put it on my github and feel like a Real Dev, and I have to study for my SATs. And then I have to apply to college. In 2.5 years.
Yay!! Which means I have to go to sleep at 12 wake up at 4(Which for dev standards is a lot of sleep). Which means I have to zombie through school. Going to be a great 3 years folks.

In PHP, strings are classes, functions, whatever you them to be. I feel so filthy, I need a shower after typing this.

Feeling kinda ashamed.. I couldn't implement a graph in python using classes without resorting to a library.
Wanted to test my skills but I guess I'm not quite to that level yet :/

It would have to be variable names for classes. I mainly use C#, but I'm sure this applies to other languages. You need a name for the instance variables, the parameters for the constructor, and properties.

Scanner scanner = new Scanner(...);

Which is fine until you're in a corporation where the (many) classes are so detailed that each one is 30 chars long...

I think for my next project I will give my classes and variables interesting names, so when anyone views the source - they can be entertained.

I have been since that day until today trying to implement an OBLIGATORY drag and drop functionality to reorder a list and back it up to localStorage, but for some reason it wont work as it should. But what a surprise, today I arrive at class and he has changed the specifications of the project, allowing us to not implement that, or implement it differently. That singlehandledly made my day.

So, in my second semester of CS I had a class about OS and the way they work. The professor made us do presentations every two weeks (we were basically giving the class...).

For full points we had to have the presentation, an example (video or pictures), and an activity.

My team was one of the last presentations of the first round (iirc there were 5 rounds). I was in charge of the activity, so I decided to create a program to make it fun (and leaned a new language in the way). Thanks to this the professor gave us extra credit because we were the first team that ever did that.

My classmates decided that it was a good idea to follow my idea and a couple of teams started to code their activities too. At the end of the semester almost every team had a program as their activity...
But the professor didn't gave them extra credit because it wasn't a novelty anymore. :D

In another round, my team got as a topic encryption. By the time I was already a Linux user and I knew a thing or two about encryption, so I decided to do the example in real time showing how to encrypt and decrypt using command line. Once again we received extra credit because of it. :D

At the end of the semester the professor offered me a job as a developer, but I couldn't take it since I moved out of the country the next month :(

I don't like classes and I will fight anyone that over uses them for no logical reason what so ever !! 😐

When you spend a couple days cleaning up and refactoring a bunch of classes, then someone else comes in and places needless and empty return's at the end of every method 😒🔫

All is see is people ranting about college lectures/classes , am I the only one who learns in most of my classes?

Have classes and exams on Saturday and Sunday, great, my life's over

It makes me so sad to see such vast amounts of copy and pasted code at my new job :(

3 identical classes with only a few strings different 😡

Attending classes on English literature at 8am while coding all night. What am I doing at uni again 😶😶

That moment when the code that was supposed to be removed in only commented out!!! The guy butchered a bunch of classes by commenting out about 1000 lines of code

Working in an open space environment.. why not discussing as louder as you can about "why eclipse doesn't show the list of classes which implements the interface X"!!

Anyone else take online classes in college for programming and find several of your courses not having lectures and completely relying off a book, even for assignments?

Week X:
Read chapter x
Do end chapter assignments x x, and x

Currently learning programming (c#) and I can't wrap my head around classes can anyone give me some tips?

CSS has no parent selectors... and the codebases' element I'm working on has no classes nor an id...
kill me

when u see a bootstrap template use !important on multiple classes and id's u know someone kinda fucked up😅🙄

Realizing my currently degree plan will not transfer to a 4 year university where I can get my bachelors, I have decided to stop taking all tech classes and focus on the classes that will transfer such as English, Calc, History and Government.

Anyone else here who really enjoys writing pure functions or domain classes?

It's so amazing to be able to write dependency-less classes that have such simple, elegant logic and sometimes just a bunch of getters and setters. Pure functions with type hints are also one of my favorites.

Why Android uses so many quirky features in Java, like inner and anonymous classes, callbacks and nested generics?

I searched everywhere for the reason but can't find why, only how.

I rarely use these features outside of Android development.

Adding a new feature to a mobile app that has a bunch of classes for getting URLs! Want some examples?

FallbackUrlProvider
CompositeUrlProvider
CompositeRouteUrlProvider
CompositeBaseUrlProvider
RootUrlProvider

I was half expecting to find FallbackRootBaseCompositeUrlProvider!

Not only that, but there were a load of interfaces that sometimes didn't match the name of the class!!!

For example,

class RootUrlProvider : ICompositeUrlProvider

Ugh! But I managed to get the new feature in... Somehow... After trying something... Throwing it away... Trying something else... Throwing it away...

😭😭😭
