Got semi drunk and thought "Now would be a good time to implement this feature"
*Codes for 2 hours straight without compiling once*
"Done. Good night"

The next morning:
Gets up and tries out feature
*Fixes 2 syntax errors/typos*
*Tries again*
*Feature works*

Not that much dev-related, but still...

I wish I had a way of decompiling the code of my life, correcting it and then compiling it. I was diagnosed with Depression yesterday and it has turned me absolutely empty. The kind of empty where you feel like you're a void.

I'll survive. I know that much. I also know that it's going to be even harder than it was before.

Just for lighting the mood. This is also my struggle.

How programming teachers must feel sometimes...

When I was in my second semester of college I was tasked with creating a file encrypt/decrypt program. Take in normal textfiles and spit out a new random text and symbols file. I worked on it for two weeks and read up on all different encryption types and stuff. I was so excited when it was done. After it was done compiling I tried it out on its own source code. Encrypto.c and named the output file Encrypto.c 😰 The next thing I did was google " best version control and how to use it."

"It's compiling"

Just found out about OpenAGE - Age Of Empires 2 for Linux!
Compiling now..

Compiling empty project

"I am still cleaning the data"
- A data scientist's equivalent of 'It's compiling'

Programming

Never look at your computer when it's compiling, it can sense you and it becomes more prone to errors.

#CompilerConspiracy

Python.

When its still "compiling" :/

So I've got a friend learning Java, using Eclipse.
I walk in one day and see him restarting his computer. I make nothing of it. Few minutes later, he's restarting again.
I jokingly say "Windows update?"
He responds with the straightest face ever: "No, compiling code."

Apparently he thought you needed to restart the computer before compiling.
Not sure if I should be mortified or laughing my ass off.

Going on reddit while the code is compiling... And not realizing when it finishes.

My understanding of the OS hierarchy:

Windows users look down on Mac users. GNU/Linux users look down on Windows users. Arch users look down on other GNU/Linux users. Arch with i3wm users look down on other Arch users. Gentoo users are too busy compiling to look down on anybody.

If only it was this simple. Hi all, im new, I found this app while window shopping the play store, after reading some of the daily post, I think im gonna stay :) i wish your code the best. *returns to staring at compiling error for the next 3 hours*

I once wrote about 100 lines of C code without compiling or testing in between in notepad++.

And it had no errors and worked.😎

"I hate C# and Java because compiling takes forever. That's why I use JavaScript."

npm install && gulp

...9 years later...

@No-one asked me to make a devRant related waifu but I went "why not if devRant WAS the waifu"

and this was born while waiting for compiling code (again)

Wild message appeared when compiling linux kernel ?¿ 🤔😂

Code is compiling....so bored
*gets on devRant*

There's 2 minutes before my next meeting
*gets on devRant*

Coming from a C# background, where Visual Studio would warn me about errors even before compiling the program, Javascript was quite a shock.

Best productivity hack? It's not even a hack- just using an IDE with some level of real time syntax analysis. I know WAY too many people that use a text editor and command line compiling, which is great, and things you should know before going into an IDE that does most of it for you (know your underlying processes!!!), but they could save SO much time if they'd use an IDE or even good plugins... or even good editors. GEdit? Come on now..

Bored waiting for code to compile so here is a joke someone sent me last week .....

A man walks in a bar with his pet monkey. He sits down and orders a drink, meanwhile the monkey is running around all over the place and jumps up on a pool table. He grabs the 8 ball, shoves it into his mouth and swallows it hole.

"Holy crap!" says the bartender, completely livid. He says to the man, "Did you see what your stupid monkey just did?"

"Nope. What did he do this time?" says the man.

"He just swallowed one of the balls off the pool table, whole!" says the bartender.

"Yeah, well I hope it kills him 'cause he's been driving me nuts" says the man.

After finishing his drink, the man leaves.

A few weeks later the man returns to the bar with his monkey. After ordering a drink, the monkey starts running wild around the bar again. Up on the bar, he monkey finds some peanuts. He grabs one out of the bowl, sticks it up his butt, then pulls it out and eats it. The bartender is disgusted.

"Did you see what your stupid monkey did this time?" he asks.

"What now?" responds the man.

"He stuck a peanut up his butt, then pulled it out and ate it!" says the bartender.

"Well, what do you expect?" replied the man. "Ever since he ate that pool ball he measures everything first!"

I don't havey Friends , but the ones I have know me inside out.

I turned 18 yesterday , and what did I get for a gift , a literal 5 page C++ Program that my pals lovingly wrote for me. Compiling it right now. Let's see what it's got for me.

When your code is compiling, with no errors.

When after hours of coding it compiles without errors or warnings on the first try

This goes without saying.

Visiting devRant while project is compiling...

I'M AN IDIOT.

I accidentally typed the wrong command when I was compiling my C++ code with GCC, and guess what?

My .cpp file is gone. The .exe is still there, but that's useless to me right now.

It wasn't an important code, just something I recently started on, but I can't believe I did something so ignorant.

Fucking pieces of shit, if I would have a list of developers that add "Whoopsie daisy, tinky winky compiling stuffie" as error messages, installer steps or as a checkbox in their github issues, I'd break their fucking back and keep them alive, just to ram fucking burning nails into their eyelids and then blast just enough power through them to make them burn and evaporate alive.

There is no planet in this multiverse where chrome should be using more ram than an ENTIRE VIRTUAL MACHINE. WHILE ITS COMPILING OPENCV!!! Seriously!?!?

Just now I was compiling a new kernel for my laptop because the last ones were from before my rootfs became LUKS-encrypted. Then I found that option about SELinux again.. NSA SELinux. A MAC system that linuxxx praised earlier. Should I tell him? 😜

The most important part of compiling is whispering "Come on, you can do it, you can do it" to the server.

"If you ever run out of memory during compiling, get more ram"

No I'm not joking

I ordered myself an NES, some donor cartridges and EEPROMs, put on my big boy pants and ventured on an incredible journey on making my own NES game with assembly.
I'm too young to live in the era of the NES, I've never seen one in my life.
I had interactions with assembly only as large as "copying a hello world program from SO and compiling it on my machine"

Wish me luck fellas. I'll need it

Compilers should automatically show devRant feed while compiling

A black cat just crossed my path on my way to school...
I hope my code is still compiling today!

It's freaking 35C outside.

Guys, please close all the windows while compiling. Global warming is not a joke

You know you're the only coder in your group of friends when one of them mistypes "cmakin coffee then I'll be on" and
A.) You're the only one to laugh
B.) You're wondering how the hell he's compiling coffee
C.) Lastly, why won't my coffee compile?

When working in embedded, you basically write your program, compile it and flash it on some hardware.
Compiling and flashing usually require some black magic commands with lots of parameters so i set up two shortcuts in my terminal
yolo to compile
swag to flash

Understandably i keep it to myself

Compiling 2 big projects with two Visual Studio 2017 requires less RAM (combined) than browsing the internet. Seems legit.

JavaScript frameworks compiling into vanilla JavaScript be like:

My colleague came up with a great idea for a pocket reference guide

I have sinned. I coded few hundred lines without compiling it.
And it worked flawlessly when I compiled it.
:O

WTF ?
Compiling kernel on HDD: 3.34 minutes.
Compiling on SSD: 4.25 minutes.

Am i blind or it takes actually longer ?

WTF ????????????
This is fucking M.2 SSD.
And that HDD is 5400RPM. IDK what the fuck is happening but this is fucking weird.

That feeling you get when you compile and there are no warnings

What do you do during your compiling time?

Compiling a compiler right now. Doing that just to build kernel with latest compiler because gcc9 is more optimized for zen finally.
If you are wondering. Yes its Haxk20.

The time when we were not aware with advance features of IDE and version control.
(3-4 days before the project demo)

Me: This code was working fine last time. Now it is not compiling. Has anyone did some changes?

Team member: I corrected some spellings. So that our teachers don't correct us at the time of demo.

Me: (shocked, expression less ) We demo the application not the code. And you have not corrected on all the places.

Team member: You should do the rest.

(Based on true story)

soldering on a pcb is just as stressful as programming. u solder everything and u test it out and then it doesnt work like its designed to. its just like compiling it and a lot of errors are detected. the worst part of it, you cant detect the errors as soon as u try it out. you have to find where exactly in this kind of mess is the error:

I think i fried my CPU 😵

At the gym, compiling my muscles 💪🏽

While compiling LLVM, you have enough time to go get a beer.
Out of the fridge.
From the supermarket.
Two town's over.

NUKE IT FROM ORBIT. It was when i was doing an assignment with my roommate, i was compiling something on my pi and ran netstat afterwards for no reason. I had an ssh-connection from china (logged in too). The pi was shutdown ASAP, i salvaged everything i needed from the sd and dd'ed raspbian on the disk again.

Turns out you were able to login via root (i thought i disabled it) with the password i set (root...). I learned from this, now external logins are only allowed via private key and i have fail2ban set up

Compile..compile..compile xD

!rant

I read devRant while compiling :D

Going back to JS after heavily using Typescript sucks so bad. :(

"I couldn't fix the test so I commented it out."

"I removed build timeouts because our jobs started taking that long."

Next I'm waiting for "Compiling the code is good enough we don't need tests" before I lose it...

Shiiiiit i really hate compiling fucking kernel but at least will fix every problem

We are good at giving excuses! xD

Oh look, a new fancy MacBook Pro 2018.

How come noone is talking about the extreme heat throtteling problem they have with the 2018 laptops?

They can't even hold their base clockspeed when doing compiling code. And they become extremely hot (worse then the last gen, which was already insane).

I know devs/creators/editors want the most powerful computer out there, but supporting something like this is just laughable.

Regards, disapointed customer who tested and returned the laptop after 2 days.

Linux my dear love oh happy 25 birthday i hoppe we will be friends forever yeah i know sometimes i say bad things on you because i was compiling custom kernel and you have problem with GPU drivers but thats ok i hoppe we will celebrate your 50 birthday toogether i know you have lots of distributions but i choose Arch linux

Scariest thing I've ever experienced...
Was compiling a mod and left my laptop alone to do it's thing while I went to the bathroom. A couple of minutes later I started to smell something burning.
Rushed back to my laptop and everything was ok.

Turns out with all the coding I forgot about my toasts...

// !Rant
Im starting to love android compiling i totally love it !! U can edit anything you fucking want and the use it in daily life.
Don't like some stuff remove it.
But it takes lot of time and lot of fixing fucking errors.
//Yes it's the same as any Open Source project but I use //Android daily as most of us here.

Wow compiling kernel for linux tablet on arch linux machine booted with ubuntu 16.04 LTS I will be really suprised if it will build kernel and will work

On the twelfth day of Christmas
programming gave to me:
Twelve bugs in public branch
Eleven errors to fix
Ten freaking warnings
Nine Windows Updates
Eight blue screens of deaths
Seven minutes of compiling
Six servers down
Five Android Studio crashes
Four angry stackoverflow devs
Three kernel panics
Two burned graphics cards
and a one broken-dick piece of shit JavaScript framework

I got ranted,by our teacher in algorithms lab, because I was compiling the code using terminal and was not using torboC (there wasn't any IDE installed on the system) 😃

Current status: i should have gone to bed hours ago and there are other things i need to do, but right now i'm compiling ffmpeg in a docker container

My work is LITERALLY cock blocking me.

My wife and I scheduled a lunch 'date' at 12:30. At 12:10, I foolishly thought "Eh I'll check in my changes, I'm 95% sure everything will be fine". Wouldn't you know it, after compiling for 7 minutes, the build server throws an error complaining about package compatibility, which locally is just a warning. Now I have to babysit the good damn build.

I seriously thought about bolting and just dealing with it after lunch, but I'm a good little developer.

Here it is: get MythTV up and running.

In one corner, building from source, the granddaddy Debian!

In the other, prebuilt and ready to download, the meek but feisty Xubuntu!

Debian gets an early start, knowing that compiling on a single core VM won't break any records, and sends the compiler to work with a deft make command!

Xubuntu, relying on its user friendly nature, gets up and running quickly and starts the download. This is where the high-bandwidth internet really works in her favor!

Debian is still compiling as Xubuntu zooms past, and is ready to run!

MythTV backend setup leads her down a few dark alleys, such as asking where to put directories and then not making them, but she comes out fine!

Oh no! After choosing a country and language the frontend commit suicide with no error message! A huge blow to Xubuntu as this will take hours to diagnose!

Meanwhile, Debian sits in his corner, quietly chugging away on millions of lines of C++...

Xubuntu looks lost... And Debian is finished compiling! He's ready to install!

Who will win? Stay tuned to find out!

This might have been asked before but,
what do you do while your code is compiling?

WTF MICROSOFT.

I was Compiling app on windows 10, just gone for few mins to grab a coffee and then i saw blue screen with
Updating Windows.

Nobody ask you to do it. You piece of shit.

And that's not all, it even restarted without my permission.

Seriously Fuck you Microsoft

What ? No.
I totally didnt just buy a server.
What ? Turning my home into homelab i hear ?
You sir are correct.
Android ROM compiling, DNS, Steam cache and just all the good stuff you can think of running off of this thing.
Oh and its DL360 G8. Yeah i know little older but TBH 12 cores and 24 threads are jeez fucking amazing if you ask me
And thats not counting the upgrades i have ready for it. 2x 8 core CPUs so that would be 32 fucking threads.
And all that for the sweet price of 115Euro.
Not a bad deal at all if you ask me.

Hooked up my Raspberry Pi and compiling OpenCV from source! Hope it pulls through.

What the fuck Visual Studio? Last day my app was compiling succesfully. I DID NOT CHANGE ANY SINGLE FUCKING THING BEFORE I LEFT OFFICE. Today it refused to compile. It didn't even show the source of error, just says missing a reference.

- Clean solution, rebuild. Compile error
- Close VS re-open project. Compile error.
- Restart computer. Compile error.
- Close VS re-open project. Compile succesfully.
WHAT THE FUCK DID JUST HAPPEN? I could't believe it if it didn't happen to me. Is this shit compiling just by luck or what?

I sinned. I havent updated my system in 4 days. Not even built MESA or kernel from git. Oh Arch linux god forgive me.
Dont worry i will be on my compiling madness in few days again but just have to finish this crappy document.

Before I used to programming C++, but now I'm programming JavaScript, so Babel transpiling still counts? And SASS compiling?

Compiling yourself

You know the moment when you like game so fucking much that even when you play it 10000000 time it still gives you that good feel that you are playing something so great.
Now that i have a gaming machine (That is used mostly for compiling LOL) i can finally play metro LL on very high and still it runs great. It is indeed awesome game.

Sadly it freezes on loading of new level for whatever reason. I have to find out why.

Cousins came over...

Me: just compiling some python code, opens up jupyter notebook to take a look at some data science code

You know that web development realy took the wrong turn, when complex java project compile way faster, than simple javascript one.

Not to say that javascript is interpreted programming language.

Just started as a remote dev and I found that it's IMPOSSIBLE to work from home.

Get annoyed from something not compiling/errors? Go play some video games two feet away. Nothing going your way? Go lie down on the bed behind you.

But for some reason I can work from home way better at night.

Any other tips for working remotely?

I just love to sit and watch code compile.
Better if the project is huge (Android).
Buuuum then fucking error appear and break the beautiful time !!!

Android dev rant:

>Fixing some code
>Compile code
>Take a walk, waiting for gradle to finish compiling
>Almost 10 mins, notice typo on code, while still running gradle

Working on my Google Foo Bar level 4 challenge.

9 days past figuring out how to solve this problem..

And finally reached on a working solution. When started compiling my solution.

And then i Find out, the fucking Google tool is facing some bug and not allowing compilation. Tried hard to do everything but still getting errors...
And after searching on Google just found I'm fucked up.. It's on Google's end and they are not fixing it since so many days..

Just 5 days left to complete.. And i have no idea what should i do...

4 month work just fucked up

Happiness is removing all the compiling warning from a project which has half a million of lines of codes

*peace*

Ah you think debugging is your ally? You merely adopted the debug. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the compiling until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding!

When your code is compiling and your heart beats faster!

That feeling when you are programming in school and then teacher (she never programmed something) when you get compiling errors says "i think you are missing ; at the end of some line" I think she must became a programmer 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Best part of being a dev...

"Compiling"

Compiled a small style change in LESS file. Whole page is broken. Realized holiday replacement made all changes in main CSS file which is generated through LESS compiling.

Compiling LibreOffice in DockerHub failed. Good thing it took my computer only 6 hours to do it locally.

Its time fooooooooooor:
Good spend 8 hours of thinking where the fuck did it go wrong while compiling Android.
Idk but i always say to myself that maybe this time it will be different.
Im always wrong.
But maybe it will be different this time.
I hope for no Error and just clean build.
Ahhhh lets do it. Cant let users wait any longer.
And yes this is one of those Haxk20 Android angry rants.

Compiling latest kernel on my PiBook at Christmas.
What else would a Linux person want ?
Also Happy Christmas guys.

FUCK ARDUINO IDE!!!
Had a project with it (~ 1k lines).
Made some small changes to it and presented it.
The fucking thing just hung at a specific animation and I couldn't tell why!!

Turned out the compiler on my laptop fucked up pretty hard with one specific condition:
for(int i = 0; i < repeat; i++) { ... }

Turned out the fuckwit of compiler just kept compiling the "i < repeat"-statement to be always 1/true and thus turning this for-loop into an endless-loop.
Tried it before to debug and got the same result!!!
Compiling the same code on another pc worked fine.
The compiler just can't compile properly. Be aware of it when you encounter a problem on Arduino but can't figure out the cause.

I spent few hours trying to figure out why the fuck my Ryzen 5 based notebook isnt turbo boosting at all. And well after few fucking hours figured that Ryzen CPUs are turbo boosting and quite well actually but arent reporting it to system on Linux.
Well those are hours that i could spend compiling android but nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Why the fuck didnt they said it from the start ? Ahhhhhh

Spent an entire day just compiling a kernel with audio codecs for my cherrytrail laptop, first on my server for 9ish hours, then on my laptop, ended up deleting it all and starting over, because the final folder was 20+ gigs big (without modules) and the next instruction was to transfer all those files to what is a 32gb laptop, so I thought I fucked up, now searching more, it seems I just need the vmlinuz file once it compiled, I guess I'll compile it all again...

Who has used the "my code is compiling" excuse to extend a break?

Spent first 2 days of my job compiling existing code

2 things i learned about dual channel.
Seems like Ryzen doesnt get some extra boost with dual channel but GNOME is much smoother with it.
But dang system load is reduced a lot.
Before it was 1000% when compiling
Now its 80-110% and it compiles it even faster.
Cool.
And holy shit 8Gb RAM is not an option when compiling or building android and other shit.
I would always run out.
Now i can watch YT and still have 50% of RAM free. HAHA

And this is how i will spend my night. What about you ??

Happened only once!! 😃😃

Haxk20 found a way to max out fans on linux on his lappy. Some shitty Acer Nitroboost shit or whatever. Just runs the fans at total max.
Haxk20 may have been compiling LLVM9 for 1 hour now and fans produce 50dcb.
Ahhhhhhhhhhh

1. IDE connected to your brain that does the coding according to your thoughts.
2. Compiling and deployment for your applications take little to no time.
3. Not having to wipe your ass 50 times to make sure it's all clean.

🎶Lemon Tree🎶
I wonder why,
I wonder how,
This stupid piece of code actually works right now.
And all that I could see, it's actually compiling...

(Happens all the time)

Wasnt able to get notebook fans at full blast in games. Well android compiling surely did in minutes.

I feel like Unreal Engine for Linux is obsessed with compiling stuff:

Want to get Unreal Engine? Here's the source code, go compile it yourself.
Installed that, let's launch it. Compiles more stuff.
Now you're on the project selection screen, good job! Imma compile these shaders though.
Want to make a project with C++? That means I'll have to compile some more stuff...

If only my CPU wasn't a potato it wouldn't be so bad.

Watched a whole movie and my code is still compiling xD

Compiling software on Linux:

Python interpreter? Easy peasy, just some dependencies here and there. Make does a good job.

Linux kernel? Piece of cake, 20 years of development will be freshly served on your machine after one hour compiling (I have a pretty powerful computer).

Tensorflow? Fuck this shit I am outta.

What is your story with self-built software? Which piece of code has the most terrible dependency hell?

What ? Noooo im not compiling linux-next and linux 5.5 at the same time. That would be madness.
What ? You think this is one of Haxk20 stupid rant's ? Noooooo surely not.

Boss: What do you do when your code's compiling?
Me: I build my army!

Anyone else hate their Macbook Pro 2018? RIGHT after the return policy the speakers start acting like it has fucking tourette's, plus my machine randomly SHUTS DOWN.

Apple Store "Genius": "Yup, we gotta send it in for repair, 10 business days."

10 business days without my work laptop, gee thanks asshole, at least be a little more empathetic about it.

My 2015 Macbook Pro gave me ZERO problems. The only reason why I upgraded was that compiling took forever (React Native).

If I didn't have to work with Xcode I would just sell this thing and buy a PC laptop. (The Surface book looks nice =))

!rant

The AH-MAZ-ING feeling you get when you write 200 lines of code without compiling and everything just works as planned!!!

YAY!

3 minutes bug fixing, spend 10 minutes for compiling project

When your new build is compiling and just scooting right along so you think... sure, I could go for some food. No. Nope. Not even. It chooses the exact moment you leave to nope the fuck out completely with the most random compiler errors that you would have never seen had you just been sitting there in the chair. It's like it knows. Maybe next time I leave I'll promise to bring it back a taco.

Compiling a Linux zImage... pray for me, guys!

Compiling it on any other platform than linux

I spent an hour and a half googling and compiling my code because I typed `#ifdef` instead of `ifndef` in one my header files.

Can you C the difference?

I'm working part time as I'm a student and I always thought working in a company would be awesome as I learned programming all by myself and could actually do things now.
30% is updating, compiling
50% is using google to find out if I can even use 27 .net frameworks together and make it work on Android and iOS
15% is finding out what the error code is supposed to mean
And 5% is actually using a programming language.

Compiling 😁

A funny story I just remember while my code is compiling :

Back in high school, in Math, we were taught how algorithm works, and we made some exercises with practical examples.

I didn't know anything about it back then, so was curious. Was pretty fun, but one day, my teacher said that a IF is a loop. I said "no, this is a test" but she keeps saying that it was a loop, ignoring me (I dunno if she actually heard me) and no one actually noticed it as she repeated it several times (while I was saying that it's not). I just gave up trying to say it's wrong.

General purpose logic gate simulation

me when code runs after hours of coding without compiling

Why I love my programming job 😂✋

I was finishing compiling the linux kernel in tty mode for a school project in the subway cuz the class was over and it was not finished. A guy came to me and said : I used to do that, but on a Mac. Then he left. I was like : wtf do you think I'm doing? You don't compile the linux kernel on a fucking Mac. And why would you mention it was a Mac anyway?I guess he just did ls -al on his Mac in tty.

Why is java called java?
Because by the end of the day you'll need a strong cup of coffee to retain your will to live.

I'm going to be that guy .... A lot of these rants are about code compiling first time .. Throwing away code you wrote because you didn't need it... Getting in the zone and writing a billion lines before you compile .... Am I the only freaking person here that does TDD ? My rant is wake up people ! People evangelize about it because it fucking works !

guess i'm going to need a new computer to compile the kernel...

The last eight years were fun, but I ran out of space while trying to compile a project, and, well, your number came up. I'm sorry...

I need a bigger SSD. I launched Visual Studio (which I rarely use so it only had the default extensions installed) to clone and build the new Windows Terminal to see what it's like. Had to download over 10GB of extensions and features first, and then compiling the project ate up every last byte of remaining space.

Have some time to spare. And compiling android in background on 6 threads and browsing on 2. Awesome. So lets start solving the hidden secrets 2 game. I got to 48 on dnbhl so lets see if this is harder.

In my free time I like to compile android ROMs for my device, and I couldn't get my favourite ROM, CarbonROM to compile, it was wining about a c file in a directory and I used a different repo, no sound after compiling but hey, at least it worked right?

Turns out there was a new commit that had messed up the compiler, and this commit was live for about 10 minutes, and I just so happened to be repo syncing at that time.

WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. FUCK.

Compiling successful from the first time - there is smth wrong.

So I decided today was a good day to manually compile python 3.6 for my raspberry pi as it hasn't yet been added to any supported repo's. Site says: this will take approximately 30 minutes.
3 hours later: "starting unit testing"

I'm not slacking... my code is compiling

So I was compiling vfio kernel and I noticed something
(Picture)
I guess Batman is managing my network now

Writing simple terminal input/output lang (Hello, what's your name, hi) in D.
Compiling in D using standard lib: 6.1M
Compiling in D with inline assembly, no standard lib or libc, using syscalls: 1048 bytes!
I'm still freaking out a little.

C++ template errors.

Probably enough said... But a couple years ago I was interviewing and each interview included, do know about templates. I always answered, "enough to determine what is wrong when there is a compiler error." I always got some form of a chuckle or "wow" and NEVER a follow up question about templates. I received job offers from each interview, they all apparently needed someone who could help get their template code compiling?

Ubuntu: Lulz your trackpad drivers don't work and there's no solution other than compiling them yourself or something it might not even work because it's for a different model but just hope and pray ok? also your wifi obviously fucking won't work. What, are you retarded?

Manjaro: Ye I gotchu. Mouse works outta the box. WiFi too

I am serious. I swear I saw it! I am not kidding!
One hour ago, an error from the compiler made me unable to compile my program. I went to eat something and then i came back. The error wasn't there anymore!!! I tried compiling the program and it worked like nothing happened! I think I am getting crazy...

Its christmass and im writing code for Advent of Code 2019 and Playing elite dangerous.
Yes thats the way i like it.
(Yes we already gave gifts to each other so no worries).
And well since this is Haxk20 it woudlnt be me without compiling something.
Last year it was kernel. Now its full android ROM on server. YAY.

Compiling QT from source literally takes hours on a i7 6700...

Well im building android and kernel and all sorts of stuff. So now i can say i was compiling the last second of a decade. WEeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Ouuuu yeah.
Happy fucking new year for people who are in timezones where its near midnight already. For me still few hours.

What are you doing crashing on me Windows?

All I was doing was running a flight simulation, compiling a build, and doing a regex search over 6 directories. Try to open one little document and it all goes to hell.

Surely you can handle that Windows?

Apparently not.

Its valentine and I'm spending this beautiful day updating my android repos, compiling apps and building android and also got my first payout for mining.
Ohhh if everyday was like this.
Also we have free 3 days from school because of flu and well I'm home entire week cause I got it. :((((
But well still its awesome day.
I hope everybody else have awesome day too.
But still Valentine's just ordinary day that people gave some special meaning which is bullshit so tomorrow will be like this too. Yayyyyy

If it compiles, ship it!

If only compiling a medium to big C/C++ library wasn't a fucking nightmare still in 2016, with all those slightly incompatible build tools that fail miserably on your machine...

Project due next Wednesday, spends all day Friday drinking beer and playing Mario Kart Double Dash....

My codes compiling.

Worst tech ever? I will say, but don't throw rocks before I explain. Xcode. Why? Try to use it on MacBook 2008. And after that, compare it to Android Studio on same machine. But at least, I can just say "Compiling" to PM and play games on phone. And even "I don't give a fuck about how urgent it is. IPA build takes 15 minutes."

Learnt a very important lesson today..

To add some context; I'm currently in my second semester of uni studying a Bachelor of Computer Science (Advanced), and started the year with no experience with any language.

Up until recently all my practical work has been guided by context sheets, now I have some freedom in what my program does.

Because of the very small projects earlier in the year I have built a habit of writing the whole program before compiling anything. This worked fine since the programs were small and at most only a few errors would be present.

Cut back to today, and I had been writing a program for a bigger assignment. After an hour or so of writing I began thinking I should probably test everything up to this point. I ignored it...

Fast forward 4 hours to having "completed" writing the full program. I knew by this point I was taking a massive risk by not testing earlier.

Lo and behold, I try compiling everything for the first time and countless errors prevent the program from compiling. I tried for quite some time fixing the errors but more just kept appearing as 1 was fixed.

I'm now left with no time to fix the program before the deadline with no one but myself to blame.

Lesson learnt :/

How I always feel about Xcode when compiling Swift code, opening storyboard files, or just in general.

We need to make some of these stickers. ++

I just fucking hate compiling this fucking C# (ASP.NET) code and then transferring to staging server. Fuck you.....no no no listen to me fuck you and fuck this shit.

Everyday we learn something new.
I learnt today that mesa OpenCL support is shit.
And i spent half an our compiling the AMD open source rocm to have proper support.
Wait. Now that i can use openCL on my laptop i could mine some coins on 2 GPUs.
MUHAHAHAHAHA

One thing that I hate more than anything else in what I do: Waiting

Whether it is compiling, training, loading, IDE indexing or building I just despise it. It gets me out of my flow and forces me to be bored and often unable to do anything else because my pc is busy

Awful idea of the day - Have a programming language with no comments, but regex preprocessor macros. Use macros to define your own comment syntax and strip them before compiling.

#define /\/\/.*//

You will get far more rejections than acceptance. A lot of the time it has more to do with the interviewer and not the candidate (assuming the candidate is a genuine hard worker). The job search process is similar in this regard to finding a mate or compiling your code.

Keep moving forward!

Just like compiling code that takes so long, but without errors. They sent these awesome stickers even I live in Indonesia, Thank you. @devRantApp

So I made my first rust program with just a quick look at the docs on for loops. 20 minutes from nothing to exe. Just fizz buzz but still. Took me 4 hours to get C++ compiling.

In the lab:
"Look! I have compiled and that gave me no errors! On the first try!"
So I look closer and
"Dude, ehm.., you are compiling the wrong file..."
Then he tries to compile the right class and the compiler returned errors on errors
"You know what? I hate you."
Never laughed that loud

Well it's nothing I wrote myself but I don't know why it exists.

I currently work on a reasonably big LaTeX (markup/typesetting) project.
For what ever reason someone had the glorious idea to build a Compiler in Java to compile the LaTeX sources to PDF, so far so good.
The problem is that
1. Most people working on that project either use an editor with its own compiling functionality or
2. use the shell script in the same fucking directory

Of course the Compiler is also slower than both of the above and tends to crash.

Well at least it's not my time which went into there.

welp i guess i'm compiling android.

To all guys who write shitty code:
if (false)

I just found that when compiling for Release mode in Visual Studio the JIT compiler eliminates this:
Dead code elimination - A statement like if (false) { /.../ } gets completely eliminated.
And a lot of other similar stuff

The coffee IV bag hung above my workstation

How's it going guys? Gradle is compiling so I thought I'd check up on you 😛

Me compiling c++ code at 3 am be like:

gcc filename.cpp -o filename

Some error pops up

Cries for a while, looking up for the solution

After writing the whole code again notices was using gcc instead of g++...

When syncing node_modules via nfs to Vagrant it's an even better excuse than 'it's compiling' - it literally takes 2-3 hrs and the ssd request is pending for over a month now. Looks like nobody sees it as an issue...

46 hours in.. Hope it's going to work!
What's your longest compile time?

Imagine you are half way through your first Linux kernel compiling and, you think you found a way to make it go faster. You have been compiling for an hour already. You press control-c and try it.

"Command not recognised"

You then realise you will have to wait another hour before touchscreen will work on your windows tablet using that specific kernel version.

Fuck me.

This guy was editing a code file but compiling and running a differnet version with the same name in a different location and kept asking around not knowing why nothing was changing

So my compiler has been compiling the newest version of my compiler for about five hours now, and progressed 10% in the last hour... Looks like my poor laptop is gonna have to pull an all nighter

Sing: "110 little bugs in my code,
110 little bugs,
Fixing one bug,
Compiling again
Now there are 121 little bugs in the code"

I’m on a laravel project which is going great, the ass rapping part of it is compiling this fucking sass with laravel fucking mix... fuck it I’m setting up gulp

named two strings as fuck and cunt (because im tired of debugging this stupid bug since last 5 hours)

compiling...

aaand laptop freezes

fuck. my. life.

My dev teacher for mobile was teaching us react native. I got an error while compiling it (missed a try catch in a function). My teacher only looked at my code and I hear her say to herself "no semycolon missing" and then she says to me, I don't know what's wrong...

Like... Are you seriously a teacher?

Wanting to have an avatar but not enough points....

I've been compiling the project for about 5 hours now, still no successful build due to bad tests generating intermittent test failures...

All I wanted to do was to release the web project to the customer not fucking wrestle Cthulhu!
The worst part is that the release is set up so that you need to release the entire project internally before you can release one part.

Who the fuck thought "hey! Safari on iOS would be a great idea!"? Decidedly that cuntfuck thought integrating the worst browser on shitty devices everyone faps to was *the* idea of the century.

No Mac? Go fuck yourself in the ass if you want to debug that shit with any device that has the fucking Apple logo. Prolapse™ by ProlApple, or Applapse rather.

My problem? I'm compiling typescript to straight fucking ES5 JS, why the fuck isn't it fucking working on iOS 10.2/3?! Is it still running ES1 Pre-Alpha RC-0.2.7 ?!! Even internet explorer is working...

Gah.

(Not meant to offend anyone, just expressing some frustration)

When updating nuget packages takes longer than cloning, configuring and compiling the Linux kernel...

while(true)
bang(head, table);

If you finally got cross-compiling from Linux to OS X working!

If you are using arch and are making packages from the aur all I can say is use makepkg -s because then it will install all the dependencies for you.
Yay

My friend who's programming in java always laugh, when i say I'm compiling Magento code

I was really bad in physics and we had energy, force and all that stuff, when I got to C, my very first programming language. I learned the formulas by writing a program calculating all the stuff we learned about in school.:D

Back then I didn't have a computer and wrote the code on paper before actually compiling it at my moms computer.

I wrote a little webserver console app that would allow me to test another project without bypassing the DRM I wrote for it. Unfortunately, after compiling, the console app immediately closes on startup, not being at all thread safe. You might say, the worst tool I've ever used is one of my own creation...
