Fear this.

Nothing to say here...

People:
Hell yeah we need to DECENTRALIZE THE INTERNET

Same people:
*host their own project at aws*

I uploaded a release APK to Play Store with the API host set to the local address I used in dev 192.168.x.x:8000 :/

devRant has had a huge impact on my life. My poops are significantly longer and now my legs fall asleep because of it.

Being the only dev on a project

Thanks @dfox. Interview time.

Hi client,

I am not able to login to your prod server. Can you please verify the following:

Host: x.y.x.y
Port: 1234
Username: ABCD
Password: password1234

Thanks,
My idiotic coworker

Currently shitting, thanks for being there devRant.

I really appreciate devs that aren't complete assholes when you admit ignorance and embrace failure. Be a teacher, not an asshole!

Oddly enough, it's comforting to hear other devs mumble "mother fucker" or "what the fuck, you stupid piece of ass" when working on things.

It means I'm not alone and we can all suffer together 🤗

Well, even MySQL server left. Hope it has found a better host

Pushing to Prod without testing and having zero problems

A legitimate warning from my university's curriculum app

fuck fuck fuck, my host.
gave me 32GB of RAM and a 32bit OS

Project Dump - Web App for people to host/adopt abandoned code projects.

At this point when I'm asked what I'm doing, my reply is just "computer stuff"

The deadline got pushed up... To the end of the week.

When you show the senior developer your clever solution to a problem and they come back with "you can also do XYZ" and his solution is much more elegant. Appreciate your superiors kids.

Home sweet home.

"We can refactor that later"

"Everyone must attend this meeting. It's really important that you all attend".

Me: *walks into meeting with other co-workers

Host: So what should we discuss today?

Co-worker 1: We can discuss how we did on the recently completed project.

Host: We'll save that for next meeting.

Co-worker 2: Any strategic plans for upcoming project?

Host: That too, for next meeting.

Me: Black Panther.

Host: That was actually a great movie. I saw it over the weekend. Who else saw it? ....

Me (in my thoughts): Just wow! 😂

PS: I still haven't seen that movie.

There goes my Sunday 😏

ssh into remote host.
Run 'ls'.
System hangs.

LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY'S GOT A CASE OF THE MONDAYS :(

Printers.

Switching between Vim and atom, ":wq" sometimes finds itself in my scripts 😅

If you get the "What's your greatest weakness" question make sure to answer "honesty". That way when they say "I don't think honesty is a weakness", you say, "I don't care what you think."

My boss when:

Conversation regarding passwords:

Me: "It should be longer than that"
Other dev: "That's what she said"

*taking note of the inappropriate-ness*

Me: "We need to get a room for us"
PM: "That's what she said"
Me: "Come on Ryan!"
Other dev: "That's what she said"
Sales Lady: "This will never end!"
Me: "That's what she said!"

Office dies for a minute. Michael Scott would be proud.

Apple doesn't trust Google and they seem to host their YouTube ads on another server xD
They ads ain't got no YouTube ID.

*throws up in mouth a little*

There is too much I want to learn and not enough time 😭

devCraft MineCraft server update:

Thanks to my friends YoungWolves, Mehrsun, and @AlgoRythm, the server spawn is looking nice! we're working on the Survival world
Special thanks to algo for the icon resizing!
All you need is ComputerCraft 1.75 (for 1.7.10) to join!
the Port is 25565 / default.
ip: 66.243.225.51

I've done it

Set up my first vm host in Esxi!

That feeling when you are reading open-source code and actually understand it

if I have to explain to you how to change your "host" file you should not have the words "Senior Web Developer" in your frigin email signature.

That bitch....

- Run a Win10 in a VM
- Have >20GB of free space on host
- W10 decides to download updates
- your host OS runs out of free space
- VM gets paused due to lack of free space

20GB for an update.. seriously..

seriously...

I mean..

Seriously....

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME????
*eye twitching*

I can't believe how quickly this community has grown! Absolutely amazing to see so many like-minded people I can relate to 😊. Before devRant I had (I shit you not) 1 fellow dev that I could talk to.. Now I have a ton 😄

I recently started using mac as my dev OS and I am pretty impressed 😷

Honestly, I'm quitting my job because I didn't get arrays.

You think pointers are hard?

Naming things is hard.

Got a new virtualization host today, allot of testing ahead :P

Me : Never actually worked on Linux before.

Also me : Tries to create, host and maintain a LAMP server.

Babies get 100+ points.

Fucking websites that dont host the latest version of their own software

Thanks for making me download a 5gb installer just to make me download another 2gb in updates assholes

Setting junior devs free for the first time

Largest-known cyber attack in history 'hits web host GitHub.

"Where is the internet located?"

It's a satisfying moment when you actually get work done on a personal project. It's comforting knowing I am capable of not being a lazy shit all the time. Gotta keep this up.

In a family with multiple IT people, we rock-paper-scissors to see who has to fix what 😄

She asked for the local host😥😥😓

I've been on devRant for an hour since getting in bed.. this can't be a nightly ritual 😐

I only use super old mechanical keyboards at home... anyone else? 😄

Client: But why is it so expensive to host a website? I mean you could host Wordpress on a cheap like 10$/month webspace, right?

Inner me: Bitch, you have a fucked up Symfony 2.1 website that only runs on PHP 5.3 plus a Wordpress site, with a lot of updates not done, plus you have a huge traffic at peak times, like once a week
Me: Well you know, the services you are running require a lot of resources...

When you stay up late doing a personal project the night before a workday -- knowing damn well you're going to be too tired to do anything the next day -- and have no one to blame but yourself 😁

The day I fit this into my code is the day I can die:

double penetration;

A bot just made 519 pull requests with malicious Makefile code to get a github actions server to send a curl to a random host.

It's gonna be one of those days

Me: Decentralized, Transparent, Immutable, Trustless ...
Host: Please give a big round of applause for Blockchain industry expert!

"Your job isn't that hard, I can do it any day."

My CS degree finally came in!!! 😁

devCraft {
Closing the minecraft server for a little while!
I'll be adding mods, writing up a perms file, and hosting the pack on git! I'll post a rant with the repo link.
One of our lovely ranters offered a VM to host the server on, so the ip is probably gonna change as well! (i also gotta make an arch bootable USB, and running the server would slow that down lol)
i'll notify you all once it's donevia a rant, like i said. until then, formulate plans, and suggest some developer-related mods for me to add in! (must be 1.7.10)
Currently planned mods are:
- ComputerCraft
- Applied Energistics
- Buildcraft
- Project Red
and a few from whatever you guys suggest. see you then!

My non-tech friend asked how much Linux is

*receives email about project*

*turns around*

PM: "Hey I just sent you an email about a project"

No. Fucking. Shit.

That moment when you set up a VM with a dynamic storage size, install stuff, randomly look at the host OS, and notice there's only 23 MB remaining. Fuuuuck 😲

We are now competing for points in the office. Good job devRant!

Sorry no work getting done tonight.. Game of Thrones and Silicon Valley have my attention

Team leads be like

So tired that I literally sat down to take a shit on a toilet that had the seat over down...

I no longer have to share a desk after today!!! No more greasy hands touching my mouse!

git blame

Surprise Skype calls be like

My act of kindness today was posting the solution to an issue that an entire thread was having. No one could figure out why their code wasn't working properly. I stumbled upon it after hours of fiddling(I had the same issue) and now we can be at peace. Don't be that guy that doesn't share knowledge. Now I can go back to being selfish till tomorrow 😄

Closing and opening the IDE fixed this problem...

My lunch consists of smashing food in my mouth and watching YouTube videos. Sad but Satisfying.

Inspired by @Linux 's rant

"You're a programmer?!"
"So, I have this app idea and I think it will be revolutionary!! I HAVE GREAT ideas for what it will look like - light blue here and white everywhere else. it's like facebook but different ..."
"It's really going to express my creativity as a person. I've poured my heart and soul into this idea. ITS GREAT RIGHT?!?!"

!Rant

Ok... So I've just received 2 lots of 2u Dell PowerEdge 2950s , 6x2TB WD Greens, 6x assorted Seagate drives (misc size) .

Totally. Fucking. Free.

A friend at work use to self host, and doesn't need them anymore , I offered to buy but he wouldn't have it! Friends are the best!

Most of my impressive work gets done within the last hour of the workday.

IDE warnings

"Let's quickly make sure that the docker container can access a host database"

I guess I can put that quickly up my ass.

How motherfucking difficult can this be?!

In Messenger...

Fellow developer: Which software is used to host MySQL?
Me: MySQL.
FD: OK thanks. :v

You know you need sleep when you wave your hand under a paper towel dispenser and it's not automatic.

I just created these folders. I own you computer. Obey me and let me in.

You call it procrastinating, I call it thinking.

Ever spend hours debugging and your coworker mutters "... It's probably XYZ" and they are right? 😵

I feel like half of my life is setting up dev environments

Sent this to my Web dev friend that said "Yeah... I'm leaving it instead of fixing it"

Confession: I love coding but I like doing other things more (music, enjoying nature, etc.)

When they send you a high priority email, every email.

This is my bottom drawer. That's +150 packets of honey from the cafe downstairs. I've been slowly collecting them since I started working here. I'm leaving soon and thinking about leaving them so the next dev can have a pleasant surprise 😂

"The old developer wrote that, not me"

"Insufficient memory for Java Runtime Environment"

I'm using a host with 32 GB ROM, fuck you Java.

"My printer is broken, fix it"

Complains about sitting all day.
Proceeds to roll around in an office chair to get around.

Google suggestions kill me

Everyone is posting awesome setups and I'm over here with a laptop lol

I hate having to reverse engineer an application you built, just to understand it. All because you haven't worked on it in months.

My rant of the day is not being able to use the latest version of PHP with the latest features because my host only provides 5.6!

Our documentation is currently stored in a VM image after the host died, meaning we have no access to anything - good times!

trying out this hot new VPS host named Skysilk, aside from the EAI_AGAIN networking issues and a too basic dashboard, it works fine. Other than that its a good host. Would recommend

In training and the other dev is pointing out active bugs to the client

looks like my Airbnb host likes to debug at the toilet.. a lot.. 😂

The other dev and I met with the PM to discuss some naming issues in one of our applications. Out of the 5 minutes we were together, the PM suggested 4 new features and a complete restructure of a module.

"There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors."

Two weeks of my life! All of this is on a win10 host with docker for windows. This is Docker running openvpn, and docker running Firefox in another container sharing VPN access from first container and also opens an x11 window port for Firefox GUI. Then x11 window server on Windows host to receive GUI. So left is firefox clearnet running native, right is Firefox over vpn in all containers, simultaneously.

@localhost my current work setup 👍

We developed this website plus custom CMS for an university. I told them that we could host the entire system and take care of it for an annual fee but they decided to host it in house because security. The IT guy didn't ask for my public key, he sent me a password. By email. Less than 8 characters long. Only recognizable abbreviated words. And a dot.

I was playing kitchen with my niece today and we were baking a cake. After she put it in the toy oven, without thinking, I spat out:

"How long do you think it will build for?"

I've never seen such a confused look 😂

I don't know why this is funny

*get task assigned to me*

*complete task*

*get new task changing everything I did in the previous task*

Me: "Why is this getting completely changed? It meets the specs you sent."

PM: "Well, they took a while to approve the concept so I assumed it would be the same as the one on their current site. But now they want something different. Just change it."

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THE POINT OF SENDING FOR APPROVAL IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO WAIT FOR THE APPROVAL?!

That client that wants to host their shitty one page website in their own IT servers bc don't trust Rackspace or AWS

The Sys Admin limited everyone's access on an application through the admin panel. He forgot I have access to the database and I now have full access 😂

deploying success

Fuck you Windows 10, WMI Porvider host taking 22% of an i7 CPU for no reason.

Doesn't matter what PC you have, Windows will fuck it up, whatever it takes

Not quite a rant, but it'll devolve in heated debate anyway 😂.

So I was discussing deployment methods with a client's CTO today.

He was fervent on using git for deployment (as in, checkout/pull directly on target host).

I was leaning more on, build npm and web bullshit on the runner, rsync to target host.

Ideally, build shit in the runner, publish to an artifact/package manager, pull that in the target host.

Of course, there are many variables and pros/cons on each side, but would like to hear your opinion.

I get more notice of stackoverflow being down from devRant than stackoverflow itself 😄

Unexpected downside to using a Windows VM for dev related work : once my Windows host (finally) finished updating, I powered on the VM...and that started updating too. FML :/

I'm reading (deciphering) the clients notes for modifications to their app and explaining to my PM what they want. At one point, he stopped me and said "How the fuck are you doing that? I don't understand how you can make those connections. Brilliant." 😂

When you're the only one in the office that codes in C++ and you get this email -- legacy project code here we come.

Hell yes! Anyone else at CodeMash???

Google just announced the .dev TLD which is now available for registration.

I guess it's time to change all my personal project host names to something different 🤷‍♂️

They want to host and test our work. All they're hosting tonight is 500s.

Working on a legacy app and couldn't find in the DB, fields for description, status, title, and assigned user.

I found them.

They were in the fields: User1, User2, User3, and User4.

How the hell does that happen?

Regression Testing is important

Why cant I pay website host services in expereince and exposure? Everything is expensive urgh.

You know your site is heavy when even the local host says your network is slow.

Currently working in a virtual Linux machine running on a Windows host. The Linux VM is running i3 and I just locked the host for the umpteenth time because my dumbass pressed Win-L to switch one Window to the right...

Also, while typing out the tags, I got the tag-suggestion 'my password is as weak as my mental state' 😂

Cheap alternatives to Digital Ocean? Needing a VPS server that will run Algo VPN and/or nginx.

Work in the morning and here we are devRant, we have to quit doing this to ourselves. We need to take a break. I'm sorry, but you have consumed my life. The chuckles, feed refreshes, and +1s will be but treasured moments I have with you. Wait.. Who am I kidding? I need you! Don't leave, I'll stay with you forever.

The worst infinite loop of all.

How many of you host your own websites?

What are the pros and cons?

What office shenanigans do you guys do?

How effective is to have my own webpage where I can show my portfolio for the company recruiters?

Do they really take the time to see the page?

If positive, what host do you recommend?

I'm not in the web dev environment btw, so it's not that obvious.

You finish development of that web application, just to find that the client is planning to host it on IIS on a windows server.

Lesson Learned: Don't ever be so ambitious that you are no longer realistic about your abilities. I remember when I started out, I would give unbelievably short TTC estimates for medium/hard tasks that would undoubtedly take some time.

Me: I just wanna host ‘Hello World’ on the cloud.
AWS: No problem. Have you checked all of our cool named products you’ll never understand?

New to programming but I want to create my portfolio, any tips? Where should I host it? WordPress is good for this or better write whole code?

I hope devRant doesn't ever get trends like imgur, tumbler, and all the other platforms that I hate 😅

The "sys admin" is upgrading my PC to Windows 10. He says "It's incontestable and must be done."

😃🔫

Brain power has been depleted after a long bug fix. I'm useless for the rest of the day.

Tried working with ear plugs instead of music last week. I think I might be ditching music 😏

I hate only a handful of things in this world. Including: stepping in water with socks on, when the toilet paper rips, and business people.

Hostinger
Hostgator

DigitalOcean for VPS ?

Something else ?

Please do suggest a host for shared hosting.
Moving from GoDaddy 🤦😅.

I know, shouldn't have tried in the first place.

Any recommendations for a decent free web host service?

I'm using plain html with no databases.

My current host seems to be having issues with ftp.

😹 thanks @dfox

Our "Sys admin" knows nothing. 9/10 I do his job for him because he either doesn't know how or doesn't want to learn. I write all of the scripts HE should be writing. He manages Linux servers but doesn't know how to navigate the command line (even on windows) without using a 1. 2. 3. guide to what he needs done. Am I crazy or is the "Sys Admin" title giving him too much credit?

Reading through old post-it notes and found a TODO that says "fix code" with no indication of a project it refers to lol

Our support department got this the other day. We host their email and only provide support for that lol

p.s. thanks @nblackburn for catching me forgetting to attach my image 😅

000WEBHOST IS SO MUCH SHIT IN ONE PLACE

Nothing on their website is working, every time internal errors and default loading times at up to 1.2 sec

SHITTY HOST!

Installed Wordpress for a friend on his site, host only supports Wordpress v2.0 😳

Do you all have your own VPS server to host your own portfolio website ? If yes provide me with a decent one.

Estimating time before consulting the dev on the task he/she will be working on is like pouring the milk in before the cereal. CRINGE.

"When an engineer builds a building, it's very well built, but it's so ugly that the people tear it down. When an architect builds a building, it's very beautiful, but it falls down" - difference between systems engineer and systems architect

Torn between Down voting reposts and letting them slide because OP is new 🤔

Need to change host for my sites, but no money for a good one. Trying to put everything in one cloud (5 USD) but... How the duck can I create a mail server with multiple domains?

A good fight with postfix, dovecot... The first account, just to the sake of make it work, is almost working (I reckon)

When something unexpectedly not working on the website and your boss told you to ask a help from the host company (GoDaddy) to fix the issue in the codes.

The installer is bouncing between 6 seconds and 10 seconds. It's been 20 and I'm starting to think neither is right.

Don't use keywords as variable names, you're going to have a bad time.

Phone interview tomorrow! Hopefully things go well 😅

So, a few days ago I went on an interview for a position as a web developer, and during the interview they tell me they are thinking about getting into hosting, and that if they decide to do so I would be the one responsible for managing all of it.

I have no idea how to set up web servers, let alone make sure they can handle heavy loads and so on, so I'd be taking on a huge responsibility and workload, along with the task of making websites.

The company consists of 5 designers, and at the moment, no developers, and they have about 30-40 customers, all with sites that would need to be moved to the new hosting platform.

My question to you all is this:

How much does quality hosting equipment cost, and is it really worth it for such a small company to get into hosting, or should they rather look to make a deal with an existing host for some kind of monthly kickback/rebate?

I'm thinking they should find an existing host and enter some kind of partnership, as that would be easier and safer than doing all the hosting inhouse.

What do you guys and girls think?

Xamarin iOS Building Host on device it's very very slow.... WTF

@linuxxx I'm about to found a start-up.

In fact me and my buddy with some freelancing contracts. And we are in need of a dedicated server.

Our plan is to host the clients inside docket container.

Technology would be dotnet core and either react/angular/Vue.js, if that matters.

The host will run on arch, because I feel in love with it! 😍

Do you have any suggestions for a provider for us?

Budget between 100-125€

Thanks in advance!

Prediction: One of the things Microsoft will do to GitHub is to remove gh-pages and make sure you can host stuff on azure, since gh-pages only supports html files, so with azure, you can host a server-sided app.

Doing a copy and paste (within the same file) and the IDE stops responding.

Not a conventional rant, but, I fucking hate Rob Lowe.

Zoom free tier calls end after 40 minutes.

Idea: pwyw conference software where the call ends after 40 minutes if the host isn't paying €5 more monthly than everyone else in the call. There is no way to discover whether this is a limited call until the 40 minute mark, and there's no way to discover who outbid the host at all except by getting everyone to show their bank statement.
