Holy. Fucking. Shit.
++111111110 on devrant. This is my moment to shine, my account completely blew up. I am the Elon Musk of devrant. I am the coolest bitch on this website, bow before me you peasants!
... wait, is this binary?7 -
Tried to install an existing web dev project in Windows 10:
- Install Atom IDE and trying to clone git repo
- Git missing, installing Git for Windows
- Installing Node (so far so good!)
- npm install
- Python missing (???), installing Python
- Ruby (????????) missing, installing Ruby
- .NET Libraries missing, installing .NET 4.0 for the 100th time
- Visual Studio Libraries for C++ 2008 missing (now you're just messing with me mate), installing 4GB of Visual Studio Libraries
- [drumroll sound]
- .....
- npm install breaks with fatal error
- Git for Windows can't be found anymore
Switched to Ubuntu out of frustration:
- Installing Atom IDE
- Installing NodeJS
- Cloning git repo
- npm install
- project is running

My ex-boyfriend once saw my post on the devRant and he said something, in a demeaning way, that don't screw up your brain with all this. Till now this community has given me support that he couldn't give me in his time. Instead he created problems. That's why he is my ex. :)
Thanks to dev Rant. :)10 -
Okay that's not a rant BUT I'm very grateful for whoever built Devrant. We definitely needed a safe space to be rude and just let it out without much filter.
To our toxicity 🥂
Cheers!8 -
For each day on devrant I feel this place more like a community than a social media. And damn thats good. Thank you all for making my day7

Yassss 🙌🏼 I'm dying. Your dog 🐶😂🤣
"Get your devRant custom cartoon avatar on stickers! We can now print glossy sticky-back 1.75" (4.5cm) circles of your personalized avatar to place on your laptop, your refrigerator, your dog, wherever!"

I feel like devRant is now a study experiment to test how long a software can run without maintenance and how long people are willing to keep using it.16

Manager: Messages not visible! bug ticket!!!!
Dev: oh fuck, there's an issue with our chat system, not good! _inspects ticket_ oh, it's just a display issue that actually is according to the previous spec, yawn...
Dev: please describe the bug better next time, I though we had a major outage, this is simply a small design issue...
Manager: ...
Dev: ...
I think I'm quitting soon guys. I literally do not get paid enough to deal with these incompetent idiots each day.
Meanwhile:
Management: forget your shitty salary, take one for the team, you get 3% of the shares in the company!!!!
Dev: what fucking shares, you haven't even converted to a corporation yet, THERE ARE NO SHARES
Management: ...
Dev: ...
Oh yeah and they called me at 6:30 PM today: "so i guess you are winding down for the day"
fuck outta here i haven't been working since 5 you fucks
jesus i swear some people need to screw their fucking head on straight, so far gone into the hUsTlE CuLtUrE they don't even know what reality is anymorerant i for sure break devrant too much so much rage amazing rage ok thats enough tags how many tags can i make rage hatred done please stop burnout8 -
Yo, is this devrant or spamspace???
Like, do you even fucking work, mates? Are you a dev? How doesn't a fucking legacy code piss you off on a daily basis? What are all the ways you want to respond to your customer's/PM's abuse? Does your lead dev even know jackshit?
Where did all your quality rants go? Why do you all sound like second graders writing essays for school? Have some passion for your job, and hatred for the incompetence for others!
Now, go produce some quality rants! Funny ones too! Bonus points if it's angry-funny.20 -
convinced a friend to join devrant, have to read his every day rants anyway.
he: are you allowed to swear there?
me: are you kidding? THIS IS FUCKING DEVRANT
he: okay i'm in9 -
So.. the software team I work with still maintain Java 6 apps.. meanwhile management keep asking when we're "moving to the cloud".
DevRant posts are too small for me to describe our technical debt.... 🤦10 -
I fucking love the DevRant community. The amount of honesty here and ranting is 🔥.
Let the rage flow through you and keep it up fam.7 -
Since devrant doesn't show the ranters
name in the feed, I found that I invented
a new game:
' Is this rant - rambling - from Kaine '
This has already given me quite a bit of joy.
On multiple occasions I have audible
exclaimed that 'I fucking knew it'

Definitly !rant; btw long post ahead
Soooo not so long ago i joined this community by chance just cuz i installed some app randomly found on google store and what can i say. Best decision ever!
I can say i never met such an interesting and diverse communitiy ever and i kin of ground fond of it (i usually dont get too attached to peoples).
After a while i felt the urge to get myself involved into some disscusion at some random post and i did it. But it felt empty as my image was just a plain green bubble of anonymity. But yeh, i am cool with it, i will customize it after some ++es. No problem!
I got incremented for a while and i got to make a simple generic avatar. I felt again a urge, but this time to customize even more. Sadly, anything cool needs approval by the people. Soo i kind of let it go as i am not really the kind to find myself talking in other businesses and i moved over.
Until i saw it! Not the tiger, not the bird but the dog! Annnd i wanted it so i made a joke that i am a wizard with an invisible dog. What can go wrong, right? Well the thing is.. it did not go wrong, as expected, but it went great, kinda unexpected.
How? Well, some random stranger felt me and gave me a hunble chance to get closer to my dreamy real dog. And so it begin, my crusade to get that damn dog!
But what i have realised fast is .. this is not facebook! Nor Instagram! People doesnot upvote attention whoreing or such lowly acts, but they are actually prone to support people who just.. get involved.
And so i did. I got involved. I actually got involved in a community! For a awkwardly introvert person that's something, but maybe more than few of you people can relate to this.
And today i finally reached that goal! I have a real doggo! Well, real as in not invisible, not as in a great responsability, but now i have both. But this was not such a big deal. The big deal is that i found people whos interests are alike to mine and are prone to help, support and befriend others. I must say, thanks to all! Wonderful time, and while i am not here for a long time, i will surely be!
Cheers and dev on!16 -
Huge dev-team presentation today with YouTube livestream link available to all clients.
Management wanted us to test our laptops, connections and cables to the bone, so that every computer will work 100% while the stream is running.
You know what didn't work?
The goddamn streaming camera device.1 -
devRant, got a code challenge for you.
Manager calls at 18:00...
Write an algorithm that gives the optimum result!
I'll go first with my O(1) solution:
Don't answer.
I'd be interested to see whoever can beat the big O of my solution!!!!!

For some reason there's no report feature on desktop for devrant.
Like, Fuuuuuuuuuck. What do you do when you see someone openly harassing another then?87 -
take your fucking feelings out of the equation
AND GET OVER IT
feelings don't get market share, features built, or any growth
so shut the hell up and grow up
AND DO YOUR DAMN JOB
you'll be proud devRant, I've finally decided to leave these clowns. updates to come...
only sad part is my rage posting will likely drop to very low levels, but i guess my own well being is a bit more important than devRant karma :) 🤷♂️6 -
Interviewer: *looking at my GitHub* do you use devrant?
Me: ...yes
Interviewer: ok, cool
I had an interview once where the dev interviewing me recognised that I had devrant avatar as my github profile picture.
Maybe that was one of the reasons they didn't get back to me after that interview? 🤔7 -
devRant is so refreshing. my circle runs more in the LinkedIn space, so i naturally get on there more. but every few weeks i come back to devRant and get the pure, honest thoughts of developers and it’s always great
just appreciate the realness on here
Merry Christmas everybody5 -

How do you like them apples ?

Dammit apple let me have some privacy !

As a fellow devRant user, what is it you primarily look for in this app ?
0. Some place to rant
1. Dev jokes/memes
2. Observer. devNews.
3. devProjects
4. Here because you don't like being in the presence of people but want to socialise anyway.
5. Finding your partner in life.32 -
Dev starter pack:
1) A big ass headphone to listen to music
2) A nice mechanical keyboard to write “hello world”
3) Some cool stickers to fill laptop back
4) A box of tissue to wipe of the tears(after seeing your progress)37 -
devRant logo in the web version main page is cropped just a bit at the right edge.

Q: What's a "muscle memory"?
A: It's when you open up devRant, skim through several posts, get bored, decide to visit some other website for more stimulation, close the tab with devRant, open a new tab and your hands type in devrant.com [ENTER] before you know it6 -
Someone here on devrant that used to go under the name LetMeCode ranted about php and said how much they'd rather work with the Phoenixframework.
Love on first sight. Studied Elixir to get a job as an elixir dev and got my first and current job right after graduating high school.
So yeah, that rant might have changed my life. Saved me from becoming a java or php dev for sure!4 -
People on devRant: "it took me 1/2/3 hours to fix that bug, omg, what a time waste!!"
Me: *wrestles some bugs for 1/2/3 DAYS*
I'm confused, how is fixing a bug within hours a ranting material...?11 -
DevRant truth: as a white man in my 40s, the only socially accepted (and taught when I was younger) coping mechanisms are smoking and drinking too much and other questionable life choices.
What I tell everyone else: I go for a walk and then do some mindfulness practice.5 -

can't wait to be absolutely fuck you rich while the clowns continue to fumble around in the sandbox for the next 5 years 🪣⛏️😂😂😂
all those years, crouched over a laptop, learning React, then TypeScript, then PostgreSQL, then .NET, then React Hooks, then Redux Toolkit, then Golang, then GraphQL, and even RabbitMQ and gRPC mixed in... more and more and more............ IT'S TIME TO SPREAD MY WINGS AND FUCKING FLY BABY!!!!!
why work for clueless clowns when your own technical know-how is literally 1000x (or perhaps infinitely) theirs? Was I an idiot? Yes, I was! Way too nice and I bought into the hype fake idiot brain culture, but now I've finally woken up. Time to ascend to the stars by myself.
Cheers devRant, this 🤡 is finally going to transform into a 👨🚀🚀
You may not hear from me for a while sadly, but I'll be sure you guys get the first shoutout - see you on 🪐rant one knows limit saturn tag really going to break devrant tag limit no mars emoji manifesto clown no done with clown3 -

Turned on this old phone after 4 years, devrant was the only app still working without needing to update and logged in 👌
"I have a date! 😍
var date = DateTime.Now;"
Was still stuck in concepts waiting to be posted on here 🤣6 -
Fuck, accidentally reported a rant because my hand was resting on the fucking report button.
Shit, and sorry to the comment's author!6 -
So, exams are coming up... So I activate the devrant blacklist entry in my pihole approx. 5 seconds after sending this post off...
See y'all in a month or so.3 -
Fun fact: I got my first job on starting of week 77 as a developer. Coincidence! I hope not.
Even devrant syncs with my life now.2 -
Yo it's been a while.
Forgot I still had devRant++ and thought it's high time I return :-)
Wonder how many of the oldies are still here4 -
Don't care much about losing ++s, but would it be a good idea if we could see a history of deleted and created accounts as well? Like, a trackers of devranters.
I'd at least get less paranoid with "I lost ++s, someone must've deleted account... Who could it be?"11 -
devrant needs DRAFT.
I left so many rants unposted because I felt stupid or cringy AF after writing it.6 -
It's dead. Devrant is dead.
If anybody wandering this earth were to enjoy random people ranting, without the possibility to filter, subscribe and connect.
No notifications means this platform is walking the plank.12 -
Just curious.
Has anyone ever had to face the wrath of the people they were ranting about here in devRant?
I introduced my reporting manager to this network, and I have done some amount of ranting about him.
I guess you could say 'danger' is my middle name.3 -
Are you ready for the only really useful advice on devRant that is not judgmental, simple, and instantly applicable?
Here it goes. If you have hiccups,
1. Inhale your full lungs until you can’t inhale anymore
2. Hold your breath as long as you can
3. Exhale carefully
This will “reboot” your breath cycle, and that conflict between breathing and other things that causes hiccups will go away.
Repeat if needed. Breathe slowly and carefully after you finally exhale.6 -

I've just found workplace stack exchange, feel like it's the compliment to devRant. Some posts from managers with stupid attitudes, getting told off. Nice to see.
eg: https://workplace.stackexchange.com/...5 -
Becoming an 'almost' decent developer these past few years has made me realize how absolutely undeserved my ego was back in high school when I first joined DevRant and StackOverflow and thought i was 'all that' just because i did some programming thing stupid teenagers found cool in a random school.
At 24 I can say I'm happy for the internet knocking me down a few pegs when my 16-17 year old ego got out of hand. I feel it's really made me better in the long run.
Thank you DevRant2 -
What I learned from devrant:
There is someone, somewhere, that will upvote the stupidest shit.
Which I find both terrifying and humorous. This is not a criticism nor a putdown. I find people fascinating. I also realize that my definition of "stupidest shit" is very subjective. This is definitely the most "fun" forum I have been on in a long time.4 -
Based on @darksideofyay "poll feature" request I made a simple bot to make them.
Just post this as a comment:
@PollBot Q: <Your question>?
A:
- <Answer 1>
- <Answer 2>
// Up to 10 answers
It will post a comment for each answer, just upvote the one you like (look at the upvotes to see the result of the poll).
P.S. It's not ideal and it's running on a mini PC in my house, so it could fail sometimes. :P36 -

Fuck product managers.
Just the other day I was discussing our progress so far and this product manager shows us the timeline and his vision for the project.
Ngl, I haven’t seen such an ambitious fuck for so long. He doesn’t know how to do anything other than fucking spreadsheets. The only problem with his plan is that we don’t even have the team, just 2 pity devs carrying it.
I still don’t get it, why the fuck would a company with 2 devs need a product manager?1 -
So I made a message board and posted it here at devrant
Now there’s a user with username Ass and I don’t know what to do about that situation…. I don’t want to remove him from user, but all he posts is ass…
Fuck me20 -
Guys, check your tags before posting on weekly rants. There are a few of you still posting under previous week's tag. The question and the answer don't match. 😛
Also, I think I just scared someone off because I mentioned the wrong tag. 😬9 -

What’s happening to devrant the other day I saw a post how ppl preferred git gui over cli, just now saw a post where light theme ppl united. Where is my elitist crew?
I use arch btw /s20 -
Semantic bug:
Updooting someone's rants until you scroll down and realize they're the same person who said a moronic thing you have already downdooted in the past.
Then contemplating if you should take all the updoots back. 😐5 -
I think the amount of cringy shit on devrant today has already surpassed the maximum level. Everyone go outside.5
-
Hi devs,
i am just curious, how often you use devrant.
to be honest,.. if my life is good.. no bugs. no miss management. I don't even remember devrant exist..
but as soon as I got frustrated from code,management, life.. Devrant is the first thing I type of my browser before starting any work :P3 -
I just compiled a color palette for devRant-related drawings that anyone can import into GIMP and Inkscape. Already successfully using it for graphics promoting dR Community Matrix (more on that later), hence the name: "drcm-palette".

For reference I used colors produced by "Tailwind CSS 10-color Palette Generator": https://tailwind.simeongriggs.dev/19 -
Heyo!!! I lost the details to my old account and I'm back after 3-4 years!!!
Hello Devrant! :D
How y'all doing!10 -
Just some random thoughts looking at the soon-to-be new filtering feature.
Wouldn't it be nice if DevRant had a QR login like WhatsApp for easy login on desktop?
What about a "top rants" on profiles?
Oh what about an activity mosaic like GitHub's commit timeline?
Just some thoughts I had while punching my punching bag, it can get tedious.5 -
We're declaring an active season of events at dR Community Server! 🎉 https://devrant.com/collabs/...
Join our guild of 100+ members to get hold of fresh ideas and game events tailored for active devRant community. You are welcome to organize your own events in here.
Showcasing notable userscripts or projects every week. Cohesive threads and always enough channels for everything you like, all await you at dRCS. 😄3 -
Managers don't understand that there will ALWAYS be bugs shipped to production, no matter how hard you try to prevent or test against them.
Devs: lol
inb4 any comments really, i've seen facebook, instagram, and all the 'big players' crash and have bugs multiple times before, so don't go around swinging your dick like your company's software has no known bugs (don't even get me started on the devrant mobile app) I'm just saying bugs are a fact of software8 -
The older I get and the more perspective I have on my career, the more I cringe at the times I thought I was awesome but I really wasn’t, especially in the eyes of or in comparison to others I’ve worked with who were much better at this than I am. In that respect, I have very few stories that _aren’t_ embarrassing. I sometimes wonder how I managed to stay employed this long. And whether any stories here on DevRant are about me.

Why do Android apps not clear their own irrelevant notifications?
For example: If I mark all notifs as read within the devRant app, or archive an email in Gmail, or read a message in the Jira app, why does it not clear the status bar notification?
Is there a good reason, or is it just often overlooked by developers to perform a cleanup action like this?6 -
First of all, merry christmas to everyone on devrant.
Second, another interesting paper--this time on pattern classification using piecewise linear functions vs classic spiking neural nets.
Supposedly it was a *six million* percent improvement in computation time, versus the spiking simulation. Thats my five minute overview of the document anyway.
Highly unusual application (hadn't seen it done before now but maybe I'm unfamiliar). Check it out:
https://link.springer.com/chapter/...4 -
Now that I think about it, as soon as I reinstalled DevRant, I got fired like 3 weeks later. Coincidence? Debating uninstalling for my new job now 🤔8
-
Are devrant servers dying? Algo sorting doesn’t load more rants and recents sorting is kinda wonky.
I tried official devrant app on ios and joyrant with same results.
This is kind of a test if I can still rant or not.13 -
Going through some terrible shit in life atm.. Didn't open devRant for a while and sure as the sun the stream made me smile.. Thanks..3

Imagine going on quora and answering somebodies carbon offsetting question by pushing your own stupid fucking agenda with propaganda answers like
"oh we need rainforest money!"
"oh we need grassland!"
"oh support the cows"
jesus fucking christ, THIS is why we have a problem with people not accepting climate change, becuase every fucking liberal wants to pile on one another and have their 'most important' cause behind it
give me a break you fucking idiots, it won't be solved by acting this way
sorry this is in no way software related, but it's the only place left i have to rant (however in some ways it is somehow software related, due to being able to think about the real world without being an absolute idiot and pushing some stupid peer pressured political idea because your social identity and friends are more important than actual facts, but whatever)12 -
rant!
tl;dr
fucked up shithead families with their entitlements
/tl;dr
What a line-up.
https://devrant.com/rants/4504247/...
One would have to be badass to just get out alive such families.
Is it a dev thing to strive for halfway decent acceptance or drive a no shit head policy?
Or just being able to find and accept people on their intent and thrive through (self) improvement?
I cut ties to four fifth of the family because of their meth head characters and the damage they impose on their direct, secondary and third party environment.
Hall of Fame of recent comments :
"If there were no information technology, every human had a job and there were no homeless people."
This brother of mine says to me while I helped him moving to a raging nazi shithole without water, electricity, roof, or sewers.
To the exact only one person of the family working in information technology.
Thanks.
Uhm. No. And there would still be machines and, well, the wheel?
Kthxbye!6 -
Someone should definitely collect all the rants of devRant and fine tune an existing model with that data so it’s able to produce new rants. I wonder what it would come up with 🤔9
-
I feel so smart that I understood this joke.
Also devrant should allow us to preview images before posting them. I have a fear of uploading my dick pic.8 -

People of devRant, how did you meet your spouse/partner, and what is their occupation?
I am just wondering how you get to actually meet people and create relationships while having an insanely intense tech career.35 -
devRant is messed up!
I often open the app (iOS), see a rant that I want to read, tap on it, and the app crashes.
Now I almost got used to that shit but for some reason when I open the app again, that rant that I wanted to read is gone! Never to be found again!
No matter how often I reload, how much I scroll down, it’s simply gone.
This annoys me more than it should maybe. But seriously, wtf is wrong with this platform? I don’t know if it’s only the iOS app but so many other things are broken here, it’s disturbing. And those problems are there for many years, nobody seems to care. 😩
Don’t get me wrong, I like devRant. It’s the only social platform that I use. But… ugh…13 -
Hehe now a devrant++ guy, because it's the end of the month and i still have money left. Now i feel kinda good :)3

When you realize devRant's SEO is pretty decent and you were getting doxxed from your old account so you change your name to fullstackclown 🤡
(tried to include the emoji in it but once again devRant is too smart for me)8 -
Most web developers don't seem to care at all about ecological footprint and UX/UI impact on people and society, like they never cared about accessibility either, desperately dreaming to work for the Californian oligopoly companies that shaped our current digital infrastructure.
Meanwhile, rivers run dry, forest are burning, people starving and soldiers killing people.
But politics is taboo, even on devrant. Let's post a funny thank-God(?!)-it's-Friday GIF animation instead!?
What kind of people do we want to be?17 -
Come on devRant! I’m getting really annoyed when clicking on rant that has [read more] at the end since it is a gamble to kill this iOS app you have made. Every ~5th click I get app terminated. Then after I reenter the app, I lost where I was. Thats why I ++ all the rants I have read, even those who don’t deserve it :), so I can scroll quickly and see which are not ++’ed.3

DevRant hiding my old rants really rustles my jimmies.
It took me many years to distill all of this pure, unadulterated rage... why would you conceal such a treasure from me?5 -
Looks like I got dislike-banned as well... eventhough I only used it where appropriate.
I understand that our almighty gods dfox and trogus implemented this to fight bots and mischievous downvote cunts, but why not inform the user affected by it?
I fucking hate these silent bans, just like Twatter and YouTwat do it... you feel like you posted something but in reality it disappears and you're not even aware of it.
Man, nowadays a lot of people behave like bots thus I can't blame The Algorithm™...3 -

Hi devrant. Super-long time lurker, (years), but now introducing.
Expect the Spanish (ranting) inquisition.
Even as a green dot, I post in joke/meme just to not annoy innecesarily with non-rants.3 -
Got the newest update for Emojis and I was scrolling through them, and what do you know? This one popped up. All I can think of was "Devrant did it first"3

Made my own "devRant" ("inspired hehe") Android app/socialmedia^^
(still in BETA) Not targeting a specific area though. http://stardash.de:4000/
And no not a devRant replacement cuzz its not soo much dev Related :)
Layout has no similarities aT aLl :D
App can only be downloaded on my website cuzz im not 18 yet so i cant publish to the playstore (and also i kinda dislike Google and using anything Google connected in a app e.g. Firebase)
There is a build in update center in the app though.
Server:
My Pc (Linux)
Nodejs with Express
Mysql
App:
Android Studio mostly with Retrofit16 -

"Please move the logo left. The text goes a bit under."
Do you guys think people realize how unclear they are, and are just too fucking lazy to write the full spec? Or are they just so fucking stupid they don't realize I literally have no fucking clue what to do exactly with comments like these?
I guess Hanlon's razor applies here, but some days I just don't know...
Happy Friday! ☠️rant dumb comments lets see how many tags devrant allows are you an idiot please kill me maybe i'll break it not technical no spec3 -
Wow didn't know devrant evolved from jsrant. @dfox what's the story behind devrant like what was the motivation.3

-
Wow I'm jobless now due to inflations now no companies here in Malaysia wants to hire me.
I looked at linkedin realised I am not the only one who is facing this issue.
Most company in Malaysia declared bankruptcy. Massive retentions.
Looking remote jobs from overseas, got ghosted.
Hey @devrant want to hire me to reprogramme devrant for 3500USD? Hihihihi😈😈😈🤡16 -
This rant is to proof that we can start argument from any topic in devrant. So here's a topic:
C++16 -
@dfox
Notifications are busted again!
++ still come through, but mentions are dead 🥲
Anyone seeing the same thing?4 -
It’s been a loooong hiatus from devRant but I’m back and still no swipe to exit a rant. Cmon, that shit would make this app easier to navigate.7
-
I’m currently working on the profile view in JoyRant, which turns out to be much more work than I thought.
Anyway, after many iterations on the appearance, I’m now finally satisfied about how it looks and works. Especially the category picker (Rants, ++’s, Comments, Favorites).
What do you think? Do you like it?4 -
When you are listening music and reading devRant, the only thing you concentrate on is reading. Because sometimes rants are more interesting than your music. 😀1
-
It seems like @linuxxx, the man, the legend, who even has their own exclusive avatar face tattoo, had left devRant for good.
The last rant was two years ago. Let's go there and let them know they will be missed.

Profoundly cynical idea: sell NFTs of devRant rants.
This post is would be worth about the same as a pizza... restaurant.6 -
Fresh DevRant meat. Who wants to work at Facebook with THIS recruitment pitch?! Hahahahaha!

The new devRant UI is pretty cool and also love the new features in the app.
Good job dfox and trogus.18 -
I sadly had to delete my old account because I realized people could trace me back with my old username (and by some of the info I shared).
I love devRant too much to leave though. I genuinely feel like I've known some of you for years when that's just some internet forum full of ranting avatars5 -
You
know
what
I

When

every

I
come

Not sure if this will actually
show and sorry, kinda~8 -
I hate frameworks and I hate people (and companies) who disable comments because they hope to hide from questions and also hide themselves from the hate
Now I have nothing left to do but post hate on DevRant. There you have it. I hope your framework burns in hell; all versions of it.3 -
So yesterday I installed Arch. Well, sort of. So far the GUI isn't configured so it's literally less convenient than an equally unconfigured TTY. But I'm getting there, today I connected to a secure Wi-Fi network. Tomorrow I expect to install something for power efficiency and start configuring stuff/creating a proper DE. Last time, when I stripped down Ubuntu and installed i3wm there, the first thing that bothered me was the lack of a wallpaper so I never got to issues like the keyring not unlocking, the x11 default font being two physical pixels tall, or added peripherals not being handled. This time my plan is to solve every issue as soon as I get there. For this reason I'll use a queue for managing my tasks rather than a stack like Google Keep.11

Windows is not full of surprises. One can expect the (light) blue screen.
(Picture in comments because it stretches like yo mama pussy in the post)7 -
IT admins of devRant, explain my dumbass the following:
Why would an IT department put servers in a VPN without TLS.
They presume they don't need because muh-VPN.
And then they don't want to hand out VPN connections to anyone and force me to use Citrix RDP 🤡
I know there are security reasons, but is there not a better way? Like goteleport.com ?
Asking for a friend (or several)5 -

Does this happen to anybody else?
Randomly my devRant app turns chinese for some days. And its the second time now. Then after some time it goes back to english.
I have nothing to do with chinese and never changed any settings lol :D16 -
I’d like to have a DevRant dataset so I can make some great visualizations, text analysis, etc. of the things we hate the most. This is top priority, thanks in advance.5
-
Hey guys how's it going, I just wanted to make a thread kinda rant to discuss various ways to keep devrant free of ads. I think as Devs we can solve this problem. Let's do this ☺
P.S - kindly share your thoughts, don't think it's shit, we can always discuss it.8 -
I broke my phone so now I've revived an old S5360. Does anyone happen to have a devRant APK for Android 2.3 on ARMv6? I figured if Facebook doesn't work then it's high time I start binge scrolling devrant instead.3
-
For those who thinks devrant is toxic community, you should visit Lowyat Forum (a Malaysian forum ), they literally speaks as of they are 12.12

Brain : Hey, there's this task that needs to be done
Me : oh sure, let me do it
* tries to do it unsuccessfully a few times *
Brain : ...
Me : ...
Brain : DON'T YOU --
Me : * Opens devrant and starts scrolling *
Seriously though, if you guys could suggest some good cmake tutorials ( I'm using VSCode and GCC 8.1.0 for compilation ) - that'd be swell :)
Keep rocking!2 -
How many of you still use devRant UWP (my third-party client for Windows)?
If activeUsers > 0 {
How many would like & would use a Windows 11 update version?
}
else {
Never mind, I don't blame you
}14 -
Oh my god devrant doesn't save rants posted by an unverified account. If you submit a rant and then verify your email, the story will just disappear into the void.10
-
AHHAHAHAHHAHAHAH Not only did my StarSpace got "hacked" i would say abused , but I had my password in clear text so did he GOT MY DevRant account now aswell!!
I just implemented encrypted passwords yesterday but not fully since im still testing ...
( hacked by @tallasianman )
:(47 -
i was trying to explain to someone that we have really specific problems that others don't really understand, which i think is why devrant exists. it was kinda frustrating, cause idk if i explained it very well.
what would you guys say is the worst part of working as a dev that others wouldn't get?11 -
When you have been scrolling devRant and you finally found a rant you feel strongly enough to reply to and the fkr crashes. Get on that stacktrace damnit.5
-
I don’t know what the hell is up with Twitter these days, but everyone’s debating hopping over to Mastodon…I question why everyone doesn’t just migrate here 🤷🏻♂️9

In my last post i wanted to know the average age so i created a google form:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/...
where you can submit your age and a visualization of all the ages:http://sakshisi.de/devrantaverageag...9 -
Can't u get a frree devrant ducky, for sticking around some years here? Who is listing jobs in the Netherlands?5
-
Hello, people at devrant, i have this problem. When i apply to jobs, most of the employers dont answer, then for the few employers that do answer, when i reply back, there is no response, even when i ask them about it. I was wondering who here has a similar experience or know y they do this or how to fix it.12
-
anyone else having this weird bug that when you scroll down under a rant, nothing happens and scroll bar grows to infinity? (only tested in firefox, rambox)
when i manually scroll very fast i might "skip" this behavior and actually be able to scroll through comments under a rant, but when i scroll up too much it jumps to the top again. ^^'
if required, i can upload a meaningless, blurry video filmed with my phone in catastrophe mode (portrait)2 -
DevRant hiring managers - do projects actually matter? Have you really hired someone because of a cool project?8
-
ok, but this is cool. it’s an image that renders differently on apple and non-apple devices. not sure if devRant will process it so it doesn’t work, but this is cool. also a huge vulnerability for apple, but cool.9
-
I am definitely not sean connory.
I wish linkedin recruiters and devs online would stop accusing me of being sean connory.
Why would I..I mean sean connory, who by the way I am definitely NOT...why would I be on devrant anyway?
For the last time, I am not sean connory.6 -
I really have to say i love and hate dev rant :( Why is the feed so so so so bad. I see almost the same posts everytime/day. Even when i refresh. And its not better when looking at today/week/month/alltime. Is the Devrant just not maintslned anymore or are there just soo few users.
On the other hand though i find it veey enterteining and relateable at times. Much better then some twitter/insta etc .. i hope devrant will get more love from the devs and more user :)4 -
In a continuation of my previous rant:
Alright KVM is running.
First devrant post from my Windows inside my Linux with dedicated pass-through graphics card. So far, looks like it's working.
Installing Horizon Zero Dawn to gage gaming performance. But it looks promising. With a stylish button on desk that switches between Windows and Linux.2 -
I had to rename my unofficial devRant client SwiftUIRant due to some concerns from Apple regarding the term Swift in the app name. 🙄
Well, it’s JoyRant now. 😁
And there is a new test version in TestFlight:
https://testflight.apple.com/join/...
* External links in rants and comments open the URL in the browser.
* Rant links in rants and comments open the rant in the app.
Enjoy testing and let me know what you think about the app! ☺️6 -
Hey @dfox consider to migrate devrant to flutter? I can contribute this. As the appcelerator titanium is discontinued.41
-
JoyRant build 16 after some development pause.
Added "Subscribe to User" function in a User’s Profile.
Fixed links which are at the end of a rant or comment. The devRant link system is very weird.
https://testflight.apple.com/join/...
I plan to implement the weekly stuff next. -
Just realised that devRant doesn't give me the option to change my password - I had to go through the forgotten password routine to do it.7
-
If you would create something simular to devRant (which is ofc topic Dev), which main Topic/Theme would it have?12
-
So... Quick question, how do I enable Devrant plus again?
Had to stop behind a supporter 2 years ago cause of unemployment, now I want back in :p3 -
Why devRant is not open source?
I know that it has a Github issue tracker with a awful amount issues.
Wouldn't it be better if people could work on the platform to improve it since most of the devRant users are developers.
(Just a random thought i had)11 -
As a JS developer I wish that when I import a package, a list of all the Jquery methods comes shipped with it 🥺12
-
it's monday morning. ofc the first thing i do is open devrant to see what hell monday is brining on others.

Devrant keeps crashing on iOS and I’m getting really sick of it. It’s been at least 6 months like this.
Edit: Also on iOS, the “X” button on top left overlaps with the “back” button to go back to the previous app (i.e. search)7 -
Hahahahaha I love how so many websites including devrant itself don't let you change your email address. Wish I had known about firefox relay back then9

When you’re so sleep deprived from days with no sleep and you’re writing only a few lines every 30 minutes after overlooking linters and fixing syntax errors, but you need to get the work done **lid-pop**… Hate it but love it..2

Hi guys 👋
I've just finished setting up my personal portfolio page. Could you please check it out and share with me your feedback, thanks 🙏❤️
URL: https://azizfcb.github.io/azizfcb/
Looking forward to hear your opinions 😊6 -
Hello, people of devrant, i dont have alot going lately and im always trying to find new ways to make money, im still applying to jobs of this type, please visit my github, if anyone wants to reach me, please do so.3
-
What a fuck is wrong with GitHub? Almost every day there are a few minutes when requests take ages to load. Is Microsoft messing up their cloud?
(Everything else works correctly. E.g. devRant opened instantly, speedtest measures good network speed)7 -
Who else hates the mental asylum inspired Picasso “art” used by google and as seen in our devrant avatars? I think it’s one of the most hideous art styles there is. Why can’t we be kawaii isometric chibi characters or something.9
-
Building your e-commerce looks easy for a dev. Just build a webapp and cry over it not getting hits 🤷♂️.

Will web3 solve the problem of wealth accumulating at the top?
Normally, those in management positions (founders, VCs, CXOs) get rich while most of the actual-work and thought-work doers struggle to meet their financial needs.
Can web3 decentralisation help employees accumulate wealth in right proportion to the work that they do?
If you feel that it can, how?
If you feel that it can't, why? What are the challenges?18 -
I sadly don't remember who set this up and posted it on devRant (give me a distro) but it seems to be down :/
Would be glad to host it again if needed, I think it is a great idea. ^^5 -
I took a week off of devRant but I kept writing rants in my notes. Stay tuned and don't forget to subscribe and turn on the notification bell.3
-
What needs to be said is that the devrant app is way more stable than instagram. And this without development since years. (I'm talking about android)4
-
Is there any way to view my devRant post and comment history beyond the 25 last items?
The comment page on my profile only shows the 25 last comments, and nothing loads at the bottom. How to view anything older than that?7 -
I didn't know devrant was an open source. I was just exploring my settings when I discovered this. Does devrant receive PR, I was thinking of giving so much fork. 😁😂😂11
-
i got into reddit recently (yes never tried reddit before). I love it. and i always loved devrant but now i cant stop wondering... couldnt have all this been replaced with a subreddit?
(i tried looking into tech subreddit, but still didn't find a tech ranting subreddit yet which im finding to be very odd)7 -
When posting a rant, what's the orange devRant option about (I've tried finding information about this everywhere)?2
-
What is the "Stories" section (second bottom tab) in devRant? It looks like regular rants but grouped differently? I don’t get it.3
-
"Good job coworker X for making a hotfix, that fixed crashes".
I don't get it. Poor code, no tests, bad QA and at the end of the day people get praised for fixing the crash. Cool, I guess I know how you get promoted.6 -
Today I learned that Vim normal mode is Turing complete. Figures. Anything can be Turing complete. Doom can now run itself, Minecraft and Dwarf Fortress are Turing complete, even PowerPoint is technically turing complete. It's only a matter of time before somebody can run DevRant in DevRant.4
-
I know this is not a de devrant, but I had a girlfriend for about a year. And today I found out she cheated on me twice the last few weeks.
How should a programmer deal with this?5 -
I got a CheatHappens Lifetime account which I don't need anymore.
I'm not sure how this is gonna work cuz devRant doesn't have PM... but maybe will figure something out..
First that replies saying they want it, gets it.1 -
Hypothetically..
If one was to acquire devRant, what would the pricetag be?
And what would you change about devRant?11 -
I guess I just try to make a features list for "my next thing (now 3% smaller!)", instantly become a customer, demand way too many features, then get lost in the to-do list aand I'm writing another devRant. Nice.
-
People complaining about your life on DevRant. If your life is better than mine then you should not complain 😠🧂18
-
Is there a way to search/filter all collabs on devRant based on tags like say programming languages ?4
-
Bo bo bo have you seen Joe?
Nah just kidding, but what the dev rant plus or sponsor tag or what ever its called, what its features?4 -
Anyone else get janky scrolling when reading the comments on a rant? I don't know what kinda funky thing they tried to do with the scrolling but it always strongly resists me scrolling down the page.
Anyways, I have to do this in the DevTools console to stop it:
document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replaceAll('scroll','');4 -
It seels that there's a hiccup with devRant Android app. Web version seems to work fine. Anyonw else experiencing the same?5

So, here's a joke
Terry: hey, Sam I just got a joke for ya.
Sam: yeah
Terry(whispers to Sam): go to devrant and you find the joke over there.
Sam: okay!!
Terry: alright cya
how ya doin Sam(reader)?1 -
So the GitHub build pipeline failed, although my local build in an actual IDE (upcoming beta version to target the new plugin version) has been working just fine and produced a valid theme plugin that works and verifies in the editor. So what, GitHub: "Merging is blocked".
Gonna post this nitpicking bullshit to devrant!2 -
Using the Devrant iOS app Incan't scroll down to load more posts. Is that intentional?
At least I cannot do it while using filters. My "front page" uses some filters and I can only see 10 posts. When I scroll down hoping to load more posts I attempt to "drag den to load more" but the app doesn't load more posts. I just see a spinner that vanished.
Bug or feature?2 -
Hello Mr. Internet,
I just wanted to ask if someone knows an "easy" solution for a Bitcoin Cashback system. We're using Amazon, Ebay & AWIN as affiliate Partners.
If you could build something like this, I would love to speak to you!
At the moment we're updating our DB (11 Million Products) and we'll include a better Search. Right after that we would like to add an Accountsystem + BTC Cashback.
I used DevRant back in 2016. Is someone out here?9 -
Is there up-to-date API documentation for devrant? I am stuck on the posting API calls, especially on what data is required.8
-
Isn't the subscribe function devrant work like creepy stalking someone...
Like what he commented,liked or posted....2 -
(Metà)
I hate the “life sucks and is meaningless ihihihi” millennial humor and I hate it even more when I find it here on DevRant1 -
What devrant means is not, "you will GET 10++ to build your avatar" but rather, "you NEED TO GET 10++ to build your avatar"5
-
Is there anyone in the whole of devRant working with VR, AR, speech or motion detection?
I keep thinking that those were just fads that disappeared, because I'm still to see a single lasting-success product.
It might be temporary, someone might invent motion control that actually works or an Alexa that does not suck (unless you speak English with an toothpaste-commercial accent), or a non-goofy AR set.
But if not a single dev in devRant is working with it, it does not seem likely.7 -
Eyup DevRant Devs - First off Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year to everyone working hard on this platform - In the New Year, please, please, PLEASE can you fix the iOS App not repositioning when in Landscape Mode for iPads? Currently typing this sideways on my iPad Pro 2020 on the latest iPadOS version, and latest version of the DevRant App; cheers chaps!
