When you're editing the css of a legacy website

There's not much worse than trying to fix your CSS for half an hour, only to realise that it's a cache issue...

Best part of being a dev?

The perceived ability to fix ANY electronic device owned by friends and family.

"So you work with computers? Any idea what's wrong with my toaster?"

Woah Google... what's with all the hostility?!

Re-deploying to the Apple App Store after making a "minor" change to your app

The only reason I use Linux is because I can't get a mac.

I left uni in 2005 clutching my shiny new .NET based degree, and was instantly hired by a local software firm... to maintain their legacy Turbo Pascal systems.

Don't drink a lot before develop

There was an error in one of my Java file. Impossible to find it. I commented all the code and the error remain. I commented the import of that class and no more error. How the f**** is possible that a empty class give an error ?
I opened the file in another text editor and found out that the last character was a symbol that wasn't recognize or display in other text editor.
I was really proud (and confused)

That pure rage when you're off work for a few days, and return to find that someone has been in one of your magnificently neat code files, and taken a syntactic shit! Loads of unnecessary whitespace, tabs all over the place, and copy/pasted comments that have nothing to do with the code! 😫

Just investigating a bug reported by QA. Spoke to the dev responsible for the code, and asked why they'd called a particular function. Their reply:

"Well the function name sounded right. I didn't check what it actually did"

Now my facebook messenger app does it's updates inside the app without my consent to install an apk.
I'm scared

First day at work, my PC starts updating, reboots and suddenly, the boot partition is corrupt.
Nice way to start in Dev.

When the PO asks for a last second code change right before the sprint review, and now it's your turn to demo

Coding and debugging in js

First day of holiday - manager messages that about small issues, ignored that.
Second day of holiday - received a message that everything is going wrong. Apparently I can't take any holidays as the world will burn in the meantime...

My password manager!!
I use passwords I can never remember, stay logged in, next time I need to log_in I use the passqord forgotten button, reset it with my e-mail or better phone

A: "It would be great if we can add a snack bar in our office."
B: "Why?"
A: "It makes our developers smarter."
B: "Why??"
A: "Jobs said 'stay hungry, stay foolish'. That's why we shouldn't makes our developers fool."

Finished my first year of Software Dev. today. It's been tough but I got through it. Does the questioning of this career path ever stop?

Didn't install linux for years now. Today, I have to and nothing changed about wifi drivers, at all ! Even the install process still sucks !

And they still ask to "sudo apt-get install fucking-wifi-driver" ?!?!?!

I don't have internet yet, that's the all point, damn it !

//TODO: Make this code great again so Donald would be proud

//First rant

So I've been working trying to get a file exporter for a binary file format mostly reverse engineered - 2001 Super Monkey Ball 2 (GameCube) if anyone's interested.

Everything works fine, goals show up in the right places, wormholes work as intended, etc. That is everything, except every single level you create will be invisible, or crash (Depending on which version of Dolphin emu you use).

This happens whenever trying to specify object names for 3D objects. I checked, all the many offsets seem correct, Object names are correct. Tried both null terminated strings and fixed 80 character strings - nothing.

Some other guy also made an exporter that works, however the code is an absolute mess - basically unreadable. It also lacks some newer parts of the file spec, which is the main reason as to why I'm rewriting it.

And as I'm working with an almost entirely unheard of file format, there are few people to go to for help. The 2 I know who are also familiar with the LZ file format have no idea either...

Sigh.

This Monday I start my first job as a junior web developer and a coworker already my first two hours will be free time, don't know how to feel 😓

Java can just bring out the worst in some people.....

Sick of fucking working with 'engineers' who cannot see that the piece of shit application that they have written is not 'done' until it has been tested. No it is not production fucking ready you fucking yes man.

You know you hit rock bottom when can only comunicate with a chat bot.

Someday, I will create NoJavaScript.
#nojavascript
#javascript
#i_hate_javascript

Chances of getting all the bugs fixed before the demo...

"What do you think Abdul? Can you give me a number crunch real quick?"

Why isn't Haskell as popular as other languages if it is so safe and so expressive?

Anyone into minecraft pocketmine plugin/server developing?

4am writing an assignment about the ethics of anonymity tools (TOR, VPNs, brown bags to put on your head)
I love the subject – I picked it – but these written assignments for peripheral classes are the most soul sucking part of studying software engineering

Pretty much anything in Angular...

When I knew the games on my Texas Instruments calculator was made by simple text files

The world needs another Jenkins plugin about as much as we need a new JS frontend framework....

Weekend ruined supporting legacy and poorly designed services coupled with poor architecture.

But "no project bandwidth" to refactor said services.

5 hours of data loss should now hopefully inspire a backlog re-shuffle.

Colleague from a remote office emails me to ask what version of some tooling is installed on a build machine. Generally I wouldn't mind, but for the fact they're literally sat next to said build machine in the remote office. I mean... why get up and look yourself, when you can just IM somebody to look for you... right?

Anyone else add "!google" to every single dev-related DuckDuckGo search?

Hello World
Got vpn and start new stage of my school life

Any of you guys know about Feathers UI ? Based on Google Trends, I'll assume that you don't. But if you do please let me know

The sticker would look amazing on my laptop, too bad i'm not going to get one soon 🙁🙁

Using diskpart tool and forgot to add the "quick" option to format the damn hard drive 😥

I hate it when users don’t know how to do a search on a windows OS. Make themselves look stupid.

I need a scraper, or a f$$$in api

Anybody using Jetbrains PyCharm on Linux ?

I'm using Fedora 25/ pre-release, and It's rock solid except for wifi hotspot and I don't need it.

Now my school gave me a Windows 10 pro key, and I'm hesitant.
Should I install it ?
Will I need it ?
