Another dev on my team just got a new machine. Before he came in today I made two separate USB installers and left him these notes.

That's the exact question that came to me 2 years back when I was also going to go to sleep early tonight

My son came from kindergarten with a picture he painted. And that's what I found on the backside of the paper.

Just came to know I too have powers.

I asked marketing how to rank higher on devrant, that's what they came up with:

I have alot of respect for the programmers that came before stack overflow lol not even joking.

Assembly! I bow down to the devs who came before me🙏

Boy oh boy .... 🤭 .. look what I came across !!

Interviewer told me to go to the window and jump.
I jumped in front of the window and came back on my seat

New neighbor came in yesterday, she cute, and apparently she also goes to the same college as me, though... when she came in last night to thank me she thought I was doing something illegal

Neighbor: "What are those?"
Me: "Lemme ex-"
Neighbor: "Are you doing [hacky hacky uwu]?"
Me: "First before you get the wrong-"
Neighbor: "I'm call-"
Me: "This is a fucking weather sattelite reciever ffs"

[Awkward silence]

Fast forward to today, landlady came in and immediately recognized my weather sattelite rig (I did it for a science fair before I graduated SHS), told neighbor she shouldn't worry because I have stuff like this everyday

God, if it wasn't for our landlady, I would have the police in my ass for neighbors getting the wrong idea...

Seriously nani the fuck

I was so bored and I typed this on Google search "a;sldkfj" and the meaning came...

What a New Year..

I thought I was a hardcore geek until I came on here.

Super chill enviroment tho

Programmers are some of the nicest people you will meet.

Except the 12 year old hackers.

He gave me task, and I estimated it will take 2 (120 minutes) hours...
He came after 20 minutes to check the progress... Then he came after 40 minutes... Then he call me after 70 minutes... Then he came again after 90 minutes... Then I delivered the task in the time with my resignation letter draft.

Here’s what I came up with.

Don’t treat a semicolon as an end of the line but rather as a possibility of a new beginning.

Inspirational right? LOL

Came in the mail today. I forgot I put in for this! 😂

I can now die without regret, I came back to a project after leaving it for three months

I WAS ABLE TO UNDERSTAND MY CODE!

I think I reached the point of writing clean code?
Let's hope so :)

My replacement phone came! I can finally use devRant during class again. :D

I used to take pride in not being addicted to facebook, twitter or other social media. Then devrant came along. Damn you devrant!!!

In 1 day.. I don't know what came over this guy

Holy shit this UI/UX/Whatever looks good! Wish all apps could look this good. ++ to the Firefox App designers!

My devrant ball came 3 days ago and it already looks like this. Am I too stressed? 🤔

Just came across a wallpaper, I do too like to write with my display off

I was signing up on Twitch...
I was in a hurry...
Goddamn that CAPTCHA...
After fucktillion attempts...
I came to terms with the fact that I am a robot...

I am building a mobile site using flexbox. A senior dev came running to tell me that we need to support IE. Looked at him and said, "IT'S MOBILE!"

This little guy came and went in between my arm and my belly. He must be having a rough day. Just kinda glad I can make it better :)

I really wonder which genius came to Shopify to report a bug on Spotify

So I dual booted my pc with Ubuntu a few weeks back. And I came to a conclusion today.

Um, windows needs to go.

I came home today to find my wife wearing my hacktoberfest shirt... She said it was soft and looked girly so she was stealing it. At least I still have the stickers.

My friend was cleaning his laptop's keyboard...
I came back home to this..

!rant

I just came to know that the division symbol (÷) is a blank fraction with dots representing the numerator and denominator!! Holy shit 😱!! After so many years!!

So this is what I received from a very bad recruiter.

I don't even know why I covered the details, this deserves to be public xD

Also, consider that this message came with <no subject>..

Once I had been sick for a couple of weeks. Then came back to this abomination

Didn't make me feel any better 😨

Tested and checked in code. Left on vacation and came back.

The code I checked in still was there, still works, and didn't cause any fires while I was gone :)

Success!

I DON'T FUCKING CARE IF WE'VE ALREADY DISCUSSED THIS, IT FUCKING CAME UP AGAIN DIDN'T IT?! SO WE CLEARLY DIDN'T NAIL IT THE FIRST FUCKING TIME.

My dad came back home slightly angry. I wonder why

Now normally I wouldn't post something like this but since I would be laughing just like this guy if somebody came to me with this problem, I just had to

I just came across some code I wrote a year ago that I don't entirely hate.

I'm legitimately a bit worried.

My grandfather just came over for christmas eve and asked me what this devRant thing I was looking at was.

I told him it was facebook but for programmers 😆

Was updating a legacy website when I came across this gem... Gotta wonder what was going on back then

Spent the entire day trying to solve a bug yesterday. Came to work today, solved in 5 minutes.
This is why I love and hate my job.

Some skids came up to me:
> Look, this is cool right? *Shows me termux*
> I just said - no

I came across this purest form of evilness 😂😂😂

Recently I came upon this:
*image attached*
It's a guide of how to speak in a programer's language🧐.

A temporary replacement teacher came in today, she is so fucking dumb omfg, I am literally shakeing, this pic will tell you everything.

I knew nothing about programming then i came across this amazing chilled out teacher who taught me cpp literally through jokes and puns and here I am still learning the best thing I've came so far

PROGRAMMING

P.S. Here is a meme to show what my mates think when i fix stuff up

I never came across a backend developer who is not afraid of CSS. 😆

First they came for the atheists, and I didn't speak out - because I'm not an atheist

Then they came for the university teachers, and I didn't speak out - because I don't like universities

Then they came for the gamers, and I didn't speak out - because I don't play videogames

Then they came for Open Source and I didn't speak out - because "anyone can fork it"

Then they came for me - and there was no one left to speak out for me

I know I butchered the poem and I'm not comparing our social situation to the Holocaust (obviously), but I think it kind of illustrates that silence and gradually giving up ideals like justice and meritocracy can end up badly.

I also encourage you to read the actual poem it's pretty nice and food for thought.

Who the fuck came up with the idea of using indentation instead of braces? I wasted 5 fucking hours of my life tracing a bug which eventually came down to incorrect indentation of a return statement which pushed it inside the loop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FML

And the PR has already been merged into master! How will I face everyone on Monday!

Just Fixed a major issue in my code and the Sun came out at the same time! I feel like should I go out and scream on my balcony!

I fucking hate it when people completely ignore/forget something I say and then later say the same thing like they came up with it.

I was looking through UX/UI designer jobs the other day, and then I checked the minimum requirements for it:

"React.js 7+ years of experience"

...

react came out 5 years ago

My wk89 post got literally one upvote, but that single one came from dfox. So I got that going for me, which is nice :)

Came to office and found out my Devrant stress ball is missing from my desk.
Should i go back home?

I came back here, after not logging in for about a year just to say that patents are fucking stupid. Thanks, see you in another year!

Oh My God!

I just spent 2 hours trying to fix an issue. Just came to know that I was using the wrong index number from the array.

* KILL ME *

I hope it's not a repost, came to devrant after long time :)

I came across a line of code that calls an sms provider that sends account credentials in the url using HTTP T_T

I was blowing dusts from my PC opening it's casing. My parents came near to me and said "Will this gonna wipe all the viruses from this PC ?"

*Anything remotely technology related has an issue
Wife : I thought you were really good at computers?

Last time this came up our coffee maker wouldn't turn on.

🤷‍♂️

So I came back to my hometown for Chinese New Year (or Lunar New Year), the first thing I was asked by my parents was "Can you fix the landline?" 🙃🙃🙃

Came to a 8 day trip and didn't bring my laptop... What have I done...

I'm not a huge fan of the idea of this place becoming a Q&A for code...
I mean that's what Stackoverflow is for.
I came here for good Rants and occasional memes.

The stickers I ordered from FSFE came yesterday!

We were having a conversation with a bunch of friends and somehow i came up with this

Ps, the data is valid

Nightmare came true..
Stackoverflow down..
I am not able to access it...
Checking if it's really down or VPN issues..
Update: VPN is not an issue. It's down.

wdym Family reaction story?

"When the truth eventually came out that I was a dev, my mom wouldn't stop crying and my dad still doesn't talk to me." ?

Worked whole day from home.
Came today to work, realized i forgot to git push.
fml

A social network for diabetic people.
I was the one who came up with the idea tbh
(It was a joke) Dia-buddies
(Hi Esben lol)

When a person stops thinking, that's the end of them

I came across this beautiful quote in an anime.

I should worship the people who came up with stack exchange and w3schools. can't thank enough for helping out daily in work. 🙌

First, they came for those who Open Source'd code.
And I did not speak out, because my code could never be used by anyone out of the company, anyway.

Then, they came for the Trade Unionists.
And I did not speak out, because I was not in a union.

Then, they came for those who worked from home.
And I did not speak out, because I was granted an exception.

Then, they came for Scrum Masters and other Agile practitioners.
And I did not speak out, because fuck those spreadsheet jockeys productivity thespians.

Then, they came for in-house Data Analysts and Data Engineers.
And there was no one left to speak out for us.

Yeah, folks. The day finally came. I'm officially updating my LinkedIn and putting a ridiculous sash under my picture, "open to work". The Layoffs came for me, too.

Recently someone from QA came to me yelling "Why did you push to master? You have a feature branch for these changes..."

I replied "Indeed. Coincidently it's called 'master' "

We are 5 people on the team. And I am the only one who came to the office today. Love is definitely in the air.

This is a little old but i came across it a while ago and it made me giggle.

So, I told my programmer friend to bring food for us while you are out.

He has still not came, Should I be worried ?

!rant

Score!

(Sorry, just couldn't resist, after I was lucky enough to see this before another ++ came in)

My friend was applying for jobs when he came across this listing. I really hope it's a typo...

This came in a week ago, but I forgot to post 🤙

I went afk without locking my pc. When I came back I saw the "Upgrading to Windows 10" screen.

here I sit
broken hearted
came to shit
but only ranted!

My DevDuck came! What name should I pick?

If this masterpiece came from my coworker I would smash his computer, burn his house, wipe his gene from poor mother earth. Luckily it came from my new programming student, so I find it adorable and make a post here.

Came into this company as a web dev. Now I have to develop a native iOS app in swift.

FML

I had a problem with my code, it doesn't compile. Then my teacher came and clicked on the Debug-Button. In this moment Windows crashed in a Bluescreen.

I came back to work after a two week vacation to find out that some people left the company and others are leaving soon.

What the fuck happened while I was gone?

This just came in the mail. Apparently TurboTax was bought by AOL...

I don't even remember the last time I had a computer, work or personal, that had a CD drive in it

Just completed Object oriented JavaScript course and I have to say, the creaters of JS must have smoked some good shit before they the came up with this clusterfuck.

Every time I have a question my boss answers with another question.

I CAME HERE LF ANSWERS YOU BASTARD

Dad just came to me: "I have a great idea for an app you could build"
I thought "Wow.. That's cliché"

Any devs hitting the gym here? I started yesterday and when I came back home, I I was so tired that I couldn't write a single line of code. I don't know how I will handle both.

I came here to rant about how bad Twitter API is but I found out that I already made a rant about that before.

devRant stickers just came in. I will spread the love by giving a set of stickers to a friend.

This came up just now.. I can totally relate!

bit of an old one but in school we had a photoshop contest

I came 1st

I used only PowerPoint and Publisher

Thinking about switching to Windows after Bash came with update. Finally I can use my sound card 🙂

I remember the moment when I did something big and it came out ..."Hello World"

Came home tonight and had mail (Yes! Actual physical envelop) waiting for me from devRant... can't wait to get to my laptop (which I left at the office)

I was talking with some of my co-workers about the rise of all these package managers (and one I came across for Windows), and this thought occurred in my silly head:

devrant is an amazing place. I came to know abt programmers as young as eleven year old and as old as fifty six. truly amazing. thanks @dfox and @trogus.

I'm playing The Outer Worlds right now and came across this on one of the in-game terminals. I think this game dev needs devrant... 😂

Hi everybody! I came across this chicken breed, actually called "java bantam". How could I not buy 2 of them? :) Any name suggestions?

I quit my previous job to relax. Then current job came out of nowhere.
How? I just added a new framework I tried to my resume.
Best decision made so far.

Was writing code, came down, there's a military coup going on in our neighbor Turkey, thought I was hallucinating for a second...

Came across this company when I was looking for regex for organization-ids/organization-numbers. 😂

Want maximum efficiency in python?

def say(text):
print(text)

You save 2 keypresses everytime you print

I miss page inspect tool in mobile browsers. I came across this website that is forcing me to login, in order to read it's article.

I girlfriend frowns when ever I spend so much time with my system coding. she doesn't just get it that my system was my first love before she came into my life.

Came from C/C++... Thought i was prepared for assembly... fml

Came across this Norwegian Job posting. I wonder how many recruiters that are unaware of the "hide the pain Harold" meme..

Fuuuuuuckkk...
1month+ of debugging finally came under the sunlight 😭😭😭

It successfully run after all the pkg refactoring 🥺🥺

I was like wohoooo yeahhh 😂😂

If I made £1 for every new JavaScript framework that came out, i would never need to work again.

So I was just watching a show with subs and see this line:

"So just try and catch me!"

The first thought that came to mind was:

try {}
catch {}

Yay they came, I forgot I even requested them lol now to find them a home so they can be seen in thr wild

haha funny

Made by me, the inspiration came after I actually almost wrote a console.log while debugging, it had been a long time since I last touched Java.

WHICH FUCKER CAME UP WITH THE IDEA TO DISABLE CTRL+A IN THE GOD DAMN SEARCH BAR!!!

I FRICKING APPENDED MY SEARCH 3 TIMES BECAUSE OF YOU

So... visual studio 2017 came out... Well I have 2015 but I decided to update. I am still waiting 1 hour later for visual studio 2015 to uninstall...

I know this is kinda late but it just came in this morning..

With the current codebase I'm working with, it's not that bad of an option...😉

I really just came across this on a legit apartment rental website.

I can see no possible way for this to go wrong.
No possible way that anyone could exploit this... 🙃

Exams started today. Came back from paper, went to sleep. Woke up and was told I had mail.

...

Yay!
Thanks, @dfox and @trogus!

I came, I saw, I deleted all your files.

Lab test results just came in. I have coronavirus 🦠

I came to know and use C++ for 10 years now and I've just seen this syntax:

for(int i{0}; i<5; i++) { }

WTF is this shit??

This moment when you have to reject dream projects as a freelancer. Other projects came early and will pay more and longer. :'(

I need a twin!

Am I the only one who doesn't know where foo bar came from? I see it all the time but have no clue :/

I can't stand this shit anymore
I'm developing an app for a radio station and because their streaming have problems I had to search for another one to test, well that's fine but
seems that I came to find the fucking worse online radio station of it all...
They repeat the same songs over and over and over, my head wanna fucking explode... I don't know how I came this far without changing that fucking url...

After I went on vacation, I came back to find that my offshore team had refactored a bunch of my code, tripling the size of it and grossly over-complicating the flow... ugh.

First time in many years i just came across the maintenance page on stackoverflow.

While browsing LinkedIn, I came across someone who's title is content developer! First, I thought she is a cms developer, then realized she is just a content writer.

A year a go, I don't know why, I left this community, but to day I came back and I'm loving it!

So my boss asked me why I came into the office when it was said IF POSSIBLE, work from home. And i told him 'I am practicing social distancing from my wife.' XD

I've lost my passion in writing code. I don't enjoy it anymore. They promised me a promotion a year ago, but it never came. I'm just tired.

Guess what came in the mail today (more like 1w ago but I wasn't home yet)! Thank you, devRant team :D
Obrigada! :D

I finally came to that conclusion:

Customers doesn’t really know what they are buying.
IT company doesn’t really know what they are selling.

Came down with the virus.

I thought it would miss me, and I would have a cool story to tell people about how I came out is the pandemic unscathed.

Now I will have absolutely 0 interesting stories to tell my grandchildren.

Friday wisdom:
Test's cannot prove absence of bugs. Tests can demonstrate the presence of features though.

P.S. I didn't came up with that

So this came up when I was trying to search for length property in JS.

How did you discover devRant?
I came here after reading an article about it posted on Facebook. I don't use FB much now.

I came up with a horrendous Java joke while I was away from devRant.

What happens when someone cuts off someone's index finger?

java.lang.NullPointerException: null

Just a pretty angry review I came across

My dad bought a book on introduction to Macromedia Flash.

I came for the animations, stayed for the coding.

Yesterday I made a survey from MDN. Then I came to this question. Who made this survey, this is just... no!

Came to my parents house for the vacation period and forgot to push the code i was working on my computer. Now i sit with my laptop crying.

Finally the last part came, to build my first IoT device 😁 now I just need the time to make it 😅

If you think your legacy code is bad - this is what I came across in a system I'm refactoring this morning... and this isn't even the bug I was looking for.

Something I came across recently

"Without requirements or design, programming is the art of adding bugs to an empty text file." -- Louis Srygley

So i came up with indoor plant debugging
1. Keep a plant near your code
2. if you are writing a shitty code plant starts dying

☠️

Once again, I have bitten off more than I can chew. Agreed and agreed on every side project that came along and now I have so many at once I can’t handle

Stickers came in today! 3 days before my birthday! thank you devRant!

i will wear these stickers in my laptop proudly.

Everyone greeted me this morning when I came in .... something must be broken.

I came in to work again today...

Sometime in the near future…

"Hey Joe, how's the new robot working out?"

"Oh it's great, except that we have no more shampoo in the house."

"…"

"Yeah, apparently it got its hands on a bottle and infinite-looped on Lather, Rinse, Repeat."

I’ve been debugging all day. I finally nailed it down to the final error message but then when I fix it ALL THR OTHERS CAME BACK LIKE ON SOME NECROMANCY BULLSHIT.

They finally came! I was concerned with how long it took though. Thought it got lost in the mail.

I just came across this again

I've been using python in my work for about the past 2 years. I came from c++ and I still don't know how I feel about it. What do you think about python?

I resolved a list of bugs and no new problems came up in testing.

So why am I so scared?

Stickers came today. Thank you guys @
@

Please help me find the 2 guys I should thank for that. YES I FORGOT THEIR NAMES.

cssstats.com 👈🏼 Best tool I came across today.

How did you know about devRant?

My answer: I googled 'stores for programmers' then this came up

Are you guys using the new Twitter night mode? It just came available on iOS and I really like it so far :)

Thanks!!!!!!!!! It was awesome to find it when I came home, after 2 months they are finally here @dfox

I will learn java, c#, python and swift in udemy in 6months... purchase the courses, started , only did hello world for each course, never came back

Looks like something has been enjoying devrant.😃 I came back today to see how's it's going but I think the admins had had enough 😁

College came to me today with version 3 of an attempt for a bug-fix followed with the comment "This one should work, this time i tested it myself before commited it and came to you"

I just thought: then wtf did you do the previous two times? Just yolo commit it to the codebase?

Maybe its time i found some other place to work..

Here I sit all alone came to code but only found git corrupted object 😞

Ok i should admit i came way early to the airport

HKG - ICN
CX412
Boarding time 0100
Premium economy

Lounge invitation per request

And i have only 4% battery left, see ya!

MD came round and said thanks for pulling out the stops and working on stuff I never done to get projects done. nearly fell over.

Came in excited to give my two weeks notice today and.... My boss is out for a week.. Does this mean I can just quit?

All I wanted to do want uninstall an extension from Visual Studio and then a message came up "Please update Visual Studio Installer before proceeding."

Just unsubscribe me!! I don't want to read anything or enter the email address I just came from.

Don't make me think!

I felt the internet speed was so fast today, so I went to speedtest and this came out.

(beats everyone)

Went to Colorado to de-stress, came back with a job offer and more stress. Not sure how I feel about this, but damn it I love Colorado.

Do people still use mouse mats? I thought they came about 'cos of the rolling ball mouse which are now mainly in landfill.

So I locked my windows work computer before the lunch break, came back to Ubuntu's login screen... (I dual boot)

So windows just randomly restarted? Rip if I forgot to save something...

I'm staring at the setter portion of a legacy VB property I came across.

This is crazy... right?

Set(value As String)
_firstName = value.Substring(0, value.Length)
End Set

I wouldn't call any rejection worst.
I learnt new things everytime I had interview actually they came to me like steps of learning and when I get to know enough I got my first job :)

I just solved a math issue I came up with for no reason !

of all the technologies that never came to be, I have to say gmail blue is the one I hoped for most

I used to code by myself... then came to know about stack overflow...
Game Over !!!

I wish I had stack callback for my brain. I would love to know how I came to be thinking about sword fighting with stale baguettes at 8 in the morning.

I came back after years. It's good to see this is still working <3

My mom came home crying

I thought she watched a sad dog movie again in the cinema

She said she came back from the doctor

Immediately i felt extreme distress, cause my mom never cries from doctors unless it is something extremely serious such as cancer (she had cancer surgeries about 3 times over 15 years)

I asked what is it

She said she has to do... a heart surgery....

why..... what kind of life is this

I came to a point where I expect the computer can read my mind and suggest keyword accordingly, be it in code editor, terminal or word editor. That level of laziness. 😂

I was 4 when I was allowed at school to be on the single computer in reception. It came to break time the teachers just left me on it.

I think that’s because when my brother was kicked off 2 years prior (similar situation) he kicked up the biggest fuss possible so when it came to my first time they just went “nope not touching that”

And then a programmer was born

I'll be honest, I was more exited than I would like to admit when my Ethernet switch came in the post

I can't figure out the MVP of this project.. since everything that came up on my mind became an MVP..

Went to a Big Data workshop, now I know why there's a elephant as hadoop's logo and how it came. Still no clue how it works.

I may not be the guy who 'sudo rm -rf /' for a company but I dang near came close and had a heart attack...

I came to work when and found out the boss had fucked up:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/important_HDD_for_VMs

Hello friends, please tell me what you think about haml? I just came across haml and I don't know, if its that usefull to faster write HTML markup.

Came back from China and told I may be losing my job. Cannot remember how many times I got fired on the spot.
