Favourite Programming Quote - Whats yours?

"A computer is a stupid machine with the ability to do incredibly smart things, while computer programmers are smart people with the ability to do incredibly stupid things." - Bill Bryson

How the fuck do people have an amazing GitHub profile full of contribution while still working and having a social Life??

Am I missing some secret or trick?

This struggle is real...

Why the fuck do some people need to talk so much while working?
Let me code in peace, damnit. 😒

If you ask a programmer to do something once in a while, they'll end up doing it forever.

So, DON'T.

Some do it with coffee, some with tea, some in their house, some in a cafe, but I do it in a shawarma restaurant while eating a shawarma!

Teacher (while teaching about storage mechanisms): What do you use a CD for?
Me: Umm... Change Directory?

Do{
me();
} while (hard == true);

CAN SOMEBODY STOP THE TIME FOR A WHILE!!!

I HAVE TOO MUCH TO DO AND TOO LITTLE TIME!!!

FML!

PS. WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING IN DEVRANT?

In middle of your wonderful coding journey, don't forget to do this once in a while.

So what do you do for a living?
- I fix shit. While i do that, i break some other shit and then i fix that shit.

Do not disturb a coder while coding..

if only I could transform....

Getting paid for my work.

Just because I'm a student, people assume I'll do everything for free and "exposure", while they make money off of my code

Roses are red,
Sky is blue,
do{
//some stuff
}while(true)

Do you as a developer use
1. Noise cancelling headsets
2. Music
while working?

If music, what kind or genre?
Personally, I listen a lot to Electronic Ambience/Chillstep.

While not entirely related, I've been looking for new jobs lately and its starting to really fucking annoy me that I see front end requirements in nearly every goddamn backend dev position I come across 🤬

My front end skills are bad and while I do understand its necessity, I don't give a single fuck about it personally.

While I have no idea what to do with it, I discovered that the domain deathtoclients.com was available for purchase.

I'm sure I can come up with something fun to entertain my free time.

Do you listen to music while coding? If yes what genre(mine is drum and bass)

Worst disturbance while working?

Putting headphones on for 1 minute. and colleges start waving and asking stuff every 10 minutes.

and when you do not respond, the more waving intensify and whistling and when you take off your headphones..

They ask:
What do you think of the weather today?

Rate my new do-not-disturbe-while-I'm-coding-dart-powered-device 😂

The music I hear while coding can describe my current mood:

Dubstep and other electronic music -> chilled and focused
Movie soundtracks -> everything I do today is working fine
Anime Openings/JPop -> in desperate need for motivation
Metal -> why is that son of a code not working?!

What kind of music do you listen to while coding?

While surfing, I read one article of 45 jokes only programmer will get....

This is the more realistic one:
What do computers and air conditioners have in common??

Ans: Both useless when you open windows

Anyone else thought, while watching the website of a big company, "I could do it better"?

Neighbor: So what do you do for work?

Me: I'm a software engineer.

Neighbor: Oh I don't even know what that means. What exactly do you do?

Me: I write code for Fortune 500 companies while sitting on my couch in my underwear.

I honestly work out more bugs while thinking in the shower than I do when I'm at work.

Today at work while reading legacy code:

Wanna cry and laugh at the same time

I remember while back in studies (Computer Science) we were learning binary logic and such. When the person next to me (albeit learning Business Information Systems) asks "What does binary have to do with Computers?"

What Music do you listen to while coding ?
I listen to movie soundstracks.

While vs Do while

me when I complain that Win10 update is so fucking slow and someone suggests that I do a puzzle to exercise my brain while I wait

- Hey how are your fingers today, do they still hurt?
- They're OK, why do you ask?
- Oh, then it must have been your lack of programming skills which made me puke while looking at your code.

If you ask a programmer to do something once in a while, he'll do it forever.

what do you listen to (music, podcasts, etc...) while coding?

being a musician, i find it difficult to listen to music while coding because i find myself concentrating on the music instead.

A computer is a stupid machine with the ability to do incredibly smart things, while computer programmers are smart people with the ability to do incredibly stupid things.

How tf do I explain my manager that I simply can't change the damn response coming from a 3rd party API without hurting his fragile ego but while also using crayons.

What better thing to do than explore devRant while nervously waiting for the bride in the day of your wedding...

Coding without coffee is like driving without wheels: you can do it for a while, but you won't get far and you'll leave chaos in your wake.

My one goal is to build something that lets me stay at home with my lil girl all day. Have been thinking about my own company for a while, there are 2 software companies in town with very weak tech stacks. I know I am better and can do better. So my goal is to build my own company and hire enough people to take care of it while I spend more time with my daughter. I get sad when I have to drop her off at the daycare while me and the wife have to go to work. All I want to do is be with my family.

I found my friend's terminal on.
Did an experiment:-

What's your favorite IT podcast, and do you listen while programming?

I follow:
Linux action show,
linux unplugged,
late night linux,
home assistant podcast.

Most of the time on about 1-1.5x speed.

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

80% of the letters in "Intel" also appear in "Hitler" while none of the letters in "AMD" do.

WHILE DOING SOME PROCESS, SOMETHING HAPPENED THAT INTERRUPTED MY PROCESS AND HAD ME EXPRESS AN EMOTION OF ANGER! DO YOU ALSO EXPERIENCE INTERRUPTIONS THAT CAUSE ANGER, FELLOW HUMANS?

You aren't qualified to be lead dev he says while calling, emailing, and texting daily to ask me how to do high level developer type stuff. Seriously.

As for programming: (will do a cyber one later)

Don't *ALWAYS* only study/learn programming solely for learning it as this can be demotivating at times, find a cool project to do and learn while developing that!

This is how I learned programming in a fun way :)

I found it funny that we're actually debugging our code on prod. (while the client is using the system)
Looks like I'm playing minesweeper. 😂

ps. will never do it again
pps. don't do it
ppps. you should not

Came across 'var3' and 'var15' while debugging Hybris. What the actual fuck SAP, since when do you hire preschoolers to code.

That moment when you've tried everything and nothing works and the only logical thing left to do is post a question on stackoverflow;
&wait;
&obviously rant on devRant while you wait;

It fucking pisses me off when people compare experience as a benchmark of his performance or knowledge while hiring for job and even salaries depend on that. How do you know that, that guy has jerked around while the younger guy with less years of experienco would work better and harder.
What is your experience with people like that?

What kinda music do devs usually listen to while working? My friends (devs) say I'm weird.

Idk, but I listen to slow melodious songs. Am I upsetting the order of things and breaking unspoken, universal laws by listening to Birdy or Ed Sheeran while coding!

A programmer will
do {

} and think about a condition after a while

So my church has ask me to do their website (: kinda excited haven't done a project like this in a while

When play store literally knows how to kill your time by recommending devRant while you actually are supposed to be studying why you do this to me

I am using do while ONLY on programming exercises. And do not remember a single case I have used it for anything real.

Do you listen to music while you code? And what genre if the answer is positive?

Random guy at work pushed this to production today...

var i = 0;

while (i < 1);

And my boss keeps saying code reviews are overrated, lol.

Do you also get satisfied when programming certain things and just feel awesome while doing it?

For example I always get a strange satisfaction when I'm writing JSON...

There's this little, self-loathing sigh I do every time my program locks up because I forgot to iterate inside a while loop

do {

My boss just yelled at our devops guy because he caught the DO intern watching Twitch while he was eating lunch at his desk. Why even care?

Ever turned the music off when facing a serious problem while coding? I do it too when driving in busy traffic. At least turn the volume way down.

Do you guys find strolling through super markets and putting things in the basket one by one while crossing them out of list therapeutic

In college while submitting the java application project to the teacher.....
Teacher : The project is really great son, but do tell me how does your code work.
Me :

It's 23:00 and I'm too fucking tired to do anything but sleep.

How the fuck you people stay up all night and even develop cool stuff while doing so is beyond my understanding.

Hello World (so cheesy sorrynotsorry)

Think before you do. Both in life and while developing it'll safe you time.

You should also try not to overcomplicate things.

Name The Song.
One a side note, what do you listen to while coding? Do you need absolute silence to code?

Do you listen to music while working and if so what type of music? I personally only listen to instrumental music (mostly jazz and hip-hop) becouse music with vocals makes me crazy!

Do anyone of you take breaks while doing long session of programming?

Xcode's taking an eternity to just archive a build. And what's worse is that the whole system turns sluggish, can't do anything else while archiving.

So fellow devs , what do you usually eat/drink while coding ?

Update on me is that I am trying to do a DevOps Master's while trying to find a way to go to Canada for personal reasons - will not elaborate further on the latter.

What music do you listen to while programming?

Do you guys have tips for job hunting while still employed? My current company doesn't allow sick leaves without medical certificates and doesn't allow simple "headaches". How do you guys make time for interviews?

I found a bug.... it's in production for a long long time... I wrote it while optimizing some legacy code....

FUCK.... how do you feel when you discover a bug in production created by you?

Best comment I've heard in a while:

"So what do write code in, (Microsoft) Word?"

I can barely code properly while sober. Why would I introduce drunkenness into that equation? If drinking impairs driving heavy machinery, by what logic would it do anything to improve writing code?

Manager: These estimates are wrong
Me: Why?
M: These shouldn't take too long
Me: Well you asked me to make those while I was busy with the mess design did.
Jr frontend: Manager is right. They shouldn't take too long.

*me knowing jr doesn't know the system nor coding standards*

Jr: I'll fix mine to get a more accurate estimation. Do you want me to do yours?

* Me thinking f*ck no*
Me: Just do yours.

M: Ok. Then we are settled.

He just wanted me to fit a 10 week project into 6 weeks while I carry the Jr and was complaining I didnt do it well.

What do you guys search to find a good playlist while programming?

Nobody :When do you get more ideas for projects?

Fucking love how one-liner packages are breaking basically the entire JS ecosystem every once in a while. Why the fuck do you add one-liner packages as dependencies in your code?

What music do you like to listen while pooping?

* get myself a blog again
* get that testautomation thing which is haunting me in my dreams already to production
* be more relaxed
* do some home automation while not cursing all that much

There are a couple really bad things I've seen other devs do.

One of those things is taking on managerial tasks while they are a dev in heart. Slowly kills them from the inside.

I personally listen to a lot of epic film music or metal, depending on my mood.

I do this a lot.

I’m so happy. Finally started developping 2 projects that I wanted to do a while ago.

I don't really know if I can ask it, but wich music do you hear while coding?

One thing that i found in common among most of rants was devs getting annoyed by people who interrupt them while coding, obviously it's because we love what we do while in most jobs they wish for someone interrupting them so they can stop working for a while

My teamleader blabbering about how I shouldn't listen to late shows with my earbuds while I work is rubbing me the wrong way.

"How can you focus while listening to them hurr durr", as if we didn't all do 20 tasks at once on a daily basis anyway.

To senior devs: How do you manage half a dozen projects at once and decide when to prioritize time and do the small tasks yourself and when to let your team members learn and let them take their time...all while you're working on something exhaustive yourself?

My first time standing up and talking about something for an hour tomorrow. "Knowledge sharing" as if I don't do enough one on one...

What music do you prefer while writing / reviewing codes, that is, when you do not need immense concentration and can afford to listen to music?

I generally open a playlist of any band I like on youtube.

Alright my fellow devs and other tech related/adjacent people, we can easily glean from your rants and profiles what you do while developing. But I want to get to know the person behind the screen. After all we aren't our jobs.

So, outside of software development and related activities, what do you do in your spare time?
