Great username @Why-Nobody

"Can't have a fucking std (method) call, give me a break"

Said that loudly on a phone call. Wondering why people were give me dirty looks on the train

"[In the future, there will be two types of people.] People who tell computers what to do, and people who are told by computers what to do." - Marc Andreessen

I guess we'll be the ones who tell the computers what to do.

Does anyone else change their avatar whenever they shave 😀

{spoilers, i guess...}

In season 1 episode 4 of Mr.Robot, Elliott plans on using a Raspberry Pi to heat up the storage facility in order to destroy the cassette tapes stored there. If he can get the temperature high enough, it would render those tapes useless. I was just wondering, can a hack like this take place in real life?

Hmm, considering my username...

You know a company is ripping you off when they charge £79 for a fucking charger and it breaks in 1 year. Fuck you Apple

Where the fuck my privacy go?

I'm paying you to listen to music or watch films, I don't want you to create a damm profile my taste or "learn" what might like.

If it was a free service, fine, I'd understand, but I am fucking pying you. I should have the option to completely disable your arse sniffing software.

I know some of them provide a "private mode", but I want that to be the default, I am paying for the god damn service :/

Is it just me or the square monitors freak others out as well :/

Hmm, have not seen so much hate for a currency!

PRIVATE - This is private, nothing here. seriously, there is nothing here. Do not click; I'm not kidding. Definitely no... [read more]

Ffs, please stop asking "why all the hate on php" over and over and over and over ...

Call at 5am, meeting in the office at 5.15am, leave office at 5.30am on route to airport because the customer doesn't know how to use the system. It turned out to be nothing :/

Why so many languages and frameworks. Cannot learn fast enough :'(

I'm not, by far, what you pros call 'decent' at being a Linux wiz but installing Discord on Manjaro got me feeling 1337.

And all I did was run packer -S discord.

Well, I am now in a commited relationship with devRant.

Just deleted facebook, mainly because it was draining me, MY BATTERY, my battery I mean. And also was not using that old serpant.

Never felt the need for a stressball until I started using those damn automatic checkout machines ...
The f***** juice is in the f***** bagging area and I dont need no f***** help. Who the f*** coded this shit ***** ***** *****

Why do I hate php so much :/

Really annoyed by getting a "How was your call", after every single whatsapp/skype call

When you realise that php.net is running on version 5.4.16

Shoutout to @jobylie for this very helpful image

This 4 word limit feels like a perl one liner

I was gonna complain about why it is not clear how the tags should be used...

Then saw the placeholder "Tags (comma separated)"

Have to use Mac for mobile development

Have 16 GB of ram on a MacBook Pro machine from 2013.

It’s been working perfectly fine on the stack I’ve been using (Firefox, vscode, react-native, node, docker, Xcode, Android studio, simulator, chrome canary)

Apple releases new hardware with 32 GB ram and a few months later I see my is slowing down due to low ram, forcing me to close apps

I smell something fishy going on

Fuck you Chrome Canary. You tell me to update and then keep crashing.

Well admittedly it is Canary :o

Me (new position): Hey, can I run this locally?

Other dev: No, it can only run through CI.

Me (exploring): Oh, I see. CI -> Docker -> Makefile -> Ansible -> Packer -> Terraform -> new EC2 image -> new EC2 host -> command.

Well fuck. That's not going to work locally.

My eyes are burning. Too much color on the notifications page, evil avatars.

There should have been a warning "Do not open in dark!"

Fuck you BBC, I just want toblosten to fucking radio and you tell me that I "need" to sign in.

I do not want you to tell me what to losten to. I do not want "relevant" content, just want to listen to 30 mins of news.

Then you say it is easy to signup, but then ask for my exact date of birth as the first question wtf ...

I fucking hate when people think they can do a better job not using a well tested library.

And then try justify why their code is better and quicker than using a library.

Why the fuck does Samsung Hub which I don't want on my device, keeps installing Peel Smart Remote TV Guide, what ever that shit is on my device.
Have deleted it 3 times since yesterday and it keeps installing it.

Jesus with these guys that evangelize the IDE of their choosing. Everyone else is an idiot etc. The fun really only starts when said person gets to a place where he/she can set the rules for every one else.

Have you seen those comments which are better than the rants themselves ...

I see myself being forced to ++ the rant, just so people could see the comment :/

Just had an argument (with myself ;)) whether to write a completely server rendered site or a js app.

The only stas I have manged to find is from 2010 saying potentially 2% of users could have js disabled.

Why cannkt I find newer stats :/

Right, updating avatar to reflect summer suit

Short and T-Shirts (optional if at home office)

Trying to sleep. Looking at devRant. See a f ew rants about bugs which reminds me of my bug. Get out of bed and now behind my computer trying to fix the bug. Hope it's a quick one so I can go back to sleep

Another small update on my games modding stuff...

Currently building a command line tool to pack the game data, currently have a working sprite packer and am able to actually read data from the packed file and export all images byte for byte... Holy shit I might be able to actually do this!

Let me know if anyone might be interested in seeing a demo or some very unclean source code!

For fuck sake, stop complaining about the number of js libs. There is just as many if not more c/c++/c#/java/python/ruby/php... libs.

Just because they are available on npm or github, it doesn't mean you have to fucking see/read/use it

Is devRant using Google Analytics for upvotes (on web)? My privacy protection apps have removed the ++ button because of that on web :(

Something feels different on devRant, not sure what

So I quit my old job almost a year ago because of high stress and bad salary. The last day there was one of the happiest days of my career.
Now that I’ve enjoyed better pay, nicer work hours and zero stress for a year I am bored as hell. Thinking that I might need to change again just to get some stress going again (joke). Am I a horrible person? 😰

When you get talked into a new job by a friend and leave your old one. Just to find out the new place is nothing as advertised and you dislike it more every second 💩

You know when you are interested in a topic or have a question, and you find it on stackoberflow or hacker news, but it is from 754 days ago ...

You are left wondering, should I leave a comment here or create a new thread ...

Nice, now when you click on a notification, it takes you directly to where its supposed to :)

trying to unpack game's archives
"this game uses .arc files"
*glances at game's asset folder*
"sounds.dat"
"sounds.fat"
"sounds_patch.dat"
"sounds_patch.fat"
"world_chunks.dat"
"world_chunks.fat"

erm... okay

*tries dat/fat unpacker for other game, packer crashes*

well we're fucked, huh

We're busy upgrading our application and our hosting servers from its current legacy setup. In a meeting today suggesting that we rebuild our stack with packer and Ansible and automate deployments with rundeck. Our head engineer said that automation is too risky and we should continue doing things manually. Right now he just sshd into a production machine to do a git pull...

Fucking adverts. Amazon Fire decides to show adverts randomly ...

Dont want anything, maybe an alternative main stream social network which I actually own my data and I can define who accesses it and who doesnt. Its my info not the company that it is being held on.

Smart p2p and encrypted which somehow only those I allow can view it.

Fuck yeah, it's Friday!

Shit have got so much work to do before Monday :/

MFW I'm looking at my own code for generating images with packer & vagrant last updated two years ago and so much new stuff has come along...

Just curious, does anyone share their rants on facebook or twittee?

When did it become so hard to come up with usernames that dont contain your name or year of birth ...

I thought devRant week count would have overflowed and gone back to 1.

Qhat sort of year has more than 52 weeks, feels like the estimates PMs give ...

Tests, unit tests, integration tests, ui tests, tdd, bdd

I thought I was done with tests after school. Why, why you do this to me 😢😢😢

They need to add a new definition of Eclipse to all dictionaries.

Taking away the light and joy of development out of the process.
Synonyms: impossible, waste of time, wishing for Friday.

The consistency of php standard lib function is astonishing. array_map, array_reduce ...
Why do I have to use php7 😢😢😭😭😭

Me: [Talking about how you are able to create AMI images on AWS using Packer without relying on public AMI images]
Ops: Yeah our AWS version doesn't have that.
Me: wut? ಠ_ಠ

Write semantically correct code

Without tests of any sort

Does anyone use the -- here?

Sigh, when you realise your bank is using depracated dojo.js (uncompressed with console warnings) and it wont proceed unless you turn ublock origin off ...

Has anyone here tried nim lang?

I have been intrigued by it, but not sure if it will stay around for the long run. I believe they have been trying to reach v 1.0 for a while, but it is taking longer than expected.

Would be interested your opinions :)

Make dev great again ...

You know how people rant about js frameworks; well the very same is true about nosql.

I thought let me broaden my horizon (pun intended) with a nosql db in my project.
So from Friday evening, I started off with ElasticSearch, which is pretty simple to get started, but apparently I need to understand it a lot better to use it as a primary data-store.
Then I stumble upon orient-db, was pretty exciting and learnt the apis/librarys but researching it a bit more to learn about the community; there is some bad-blood there.
Now I'm onto something called ArangoDB, think I'll stick with this; Any more time spent on this and I'll just give up on the project.

I wonder if we will have a sprint review meeting for 2016. You know to prevent the shit storm that happened to continue ...
