The best parts of being a developer:

1. Full Internet access and admin rights.
2. It's nearly impossible for someone to tell if you are working or just zoning out.
3. We have the best online communities... because we make all of them.

Our programming teacher showed us some parts if his code the other day. When I asked him why he got an empty if-block in there he responded with "cause I only need the else-block"

I somehow want to make an ai that analyses porn videos and learns to distinguish the parts when he cums on her face. I would call it facial recognition.

Sorry.

After a year of planning and researching and waiting. I finally realised. Fuck it. Let’s fucking do it already. So over the next 2 months, I’m gonna get other parts and have a real fucking rig ready.

One of my favorite parts about *nix.

Client: ey im not a techguy, just buy the parts for the server, get it running and ship it to me.

This month's expenses:
- Computer parts to build a new computer.
- Separate video card.
- Hex monitor stand.
- 6 (second hand) monitors

I'm so sorry for my bank account 😥

Gathering all parts for building my first computer.

"nahh, I don't need a 'beautiful' case, i don't care about that stuff"

I am now searching for the most beautiful case I can find 😐

Germany

It's:
"oh cool. you must have good job perspectives."

Or:
"you just use a computer. that's not real work. do a job where you use your muscles. lazy student."

And the best:
"Can you gift me with computer parts for free" or "can you copy program XY for me? It cost to much."

The problem with C++ is that all of your friends can see your private parts.

What do you think about my custom doorsystem? It's build with a pi, RFID reader, touchscreen and some other parts. (It's still in development)

It says i should select all parts of a stop sign... help me pls :c

Boss: we have to cache everything.
Me: but some parts of the page are dynamic, we can not cache them
Boss: EVERYTHING!!!!

Few days later...

Boss: This part of the page displays the wring content!
---------------------------

Well duh. If content changes with every request caching is probably not a good idea...

"JavaScript: The Good Parts" Douglas Crockford.

I really like this book.
It's chewed away my misconceptions of JS. Especially coming from C++.

Small and precise.
JSON, JSLint and JSMin developer is the author.

*looks at data in database*

This float column seems wierd. The fractional parts are never above .59

*reality sets in*

Wtf the previous devs encoded whole minutes as hundredths. 1.25 = 1h 25 minutes.

Fuck me...no wonder the numbers weren't adding up correctly.

Guess who just bought a 700$ drone.
Guess who just flew his brand new drone into a telephone cable
Guess who cant get parts until Tuesday at a minimum

ME!

My parts came!

This is the GREAT ROLLING website that I ranted recently. I couldn't share more than this as other parts of the page contains sensitive information that is not out in the internet yet. The whole friggin page is like this. EVERYTHING ROLLS

So... m starting my internship tomorrow. 4 months, 6-8 hours a day, 5 days a week.
M VERY anxious and quite frightened to b honest.
Wish me luck guys 😨😨😅😅

It is kinda what I wanted though... contains web parts but also C++ 😍
Tech stack: c++, JS, Python 😅

Last week, i was giving my interview for a web development internship!
They asked me
what is the difference between :-
{} +[]
and
[]+{}
:(

Weird parts of JS strikes back :(

What's your starting line on Tinder?
Me : Hello World!

Gameboy dev kit has parts like these in it's documentation...

Headline of a computer magazine our class gets:
"AI is missing one of its important parts - intelligence"

The problem with C++ is that all of your friends can see your private parts.

That's not a problem, it's a feature!

My laptop battery finally died, it’s been 4 years. Damn gotta spend some money to get a replacement one. Did you guys think we could get a genuine replacement from the vendor? It’s ASUS brand

Nice, my parts have shipped! Now to wait

When you write code and forget to comment it, and then you come back and try to figure out why the heck you wrote certain parts of it.

Let this be a lesson for future me.

Looking at code you wrote a long time ago and you can't figure out parts of it...leaves you like:" Damn I was a genius"

So you remember this Headless duck that found it's way into debugging? Well after a few more adventures of 3D printing, it evolved. Afew parts that never would have seen the daylight were added to his body.

My plan:
1. Draw the logo in paper with black marker
2. Scan with the infamous printer
3. Load in GIMP
4. Edit some parts
5. Put some colors
6. Print or save as image file
7. Use everywhere

As I start to do step 2, I noticed something VERY wrong.

FML

1. Decide to learn optimisation algorithms
2. Realise that you have forgotten calculus
3. Decide to learn from the beginning
4. Search for tutorials
5. Go through the introduction parts
6. You know that you can't complete
7. You watch other entertainment things on YouTube.

Stories of a lazy programmer...

My new GPU is more expensive than all other parts of the pc together...

I didn't start coding until my 30s. I enjoy learning spoken languages, and heard on a radio show that computer coding works the same parts of the brain. Tried it and became an addiction. Been building things ever since, and now making it a career.

Started learning vim... It feels like a DIY IDE where you have to find half of the parts on the internet...

So, I set up my computer after moving and settling in.

Turns out all the jostling killed the pump on my water cooler 🙁 It now sounds like an unmaintained soviet train at full speed, and starts burning up. Poor thing.

Guess it’s time to build a new one. Though parts aren’t exactly available right now...

Bleh.

Procrastinating while waiting for my robot parts to arrive
(The lights make a nice pattern, but I can't upload videos here :()

Once a day, take some time to read your colleagues' commits.

You will see how they work, you will learn how they solve problems, you will understand their flow and you will know more and more parts of the code base.

"We need you to give 110% so that the total is greater than the sum of the parts... Eg: 1 + 1 > 2"
You're addressing a team who use logic to make you money. What the fuck are we supposed to do with this shit?
1 + 1 > 2?
false
Fuck off.

Finding a bug as a developer: "Fuck..." *start working on an undocumented hotfix that breaks other parts of the application"

Finding a bug as a tester: "Yeah, right.." *start writing a comprehensive report including all possible failure scenarios and how world famine will increase and men develop boobs if this bug is shipped into production"

Finding a bug as a PM: "Well, the other parts work, right ?" *click randomly on nearby buttons and input fields to "check" if everything is all right. Ditch said report from tester*

Food and sleep are key parts of human behavior.

Boss: Our app is to memory consuming and heavy weighted. We to do something because we will have hunsdrets of thousands of users.

Dev: Yes, there are a lot of legacy parts which leave plenty of space for optimization. Every query have to be carefully analyzed. Some can be avoided at all.

Boss: We pay externals to do some clustering with our app.

That feeling of accomplishment when your code runs and you are the only person who knows that you copied the main parts from Stackoverflow.

Fren: You should use Lorem Ipsum at some parts.

Me: Sure.

Also Me:

So Microsoft have not only decided to make it so you can't install indvidual parts of Office, but you also have no choice as to where it gets installed... Straight into "C:\Program Files".

These days when more and more people are using multiple hard drives, what possible benefit can removing installation options have??

remember, to them, we're just cogs

easily replacable machine parts

meanwhile they're "extremely special" because they've thought of the next 10 iterations of microsoft fucking excel

"HR tech startup" give me a fucking break dude

That feeling when you remove unused parts of the code.

I've realised in most of my website development I've spent most of my time modifying the nav bar then developing other parts

JavaScript: The Good Parts

So today I started editing my CV because I want to apply for an internship in the UK; and because I've already got a Dutch CV, I just opened that document and started working from there.

*selects Dutch part*
*presses crtl + /*

Comment out the Dutch parts! 🤦

I just learned that linux shouldn't be called linux but GNU (or GNU/Linux)

I am a student and currently learning programming but also I looked into history and saw this interesting fact.

Basically, there was a guy who wanted to make operating system similar to unix but free to use and distribute. He called it GNU. After few years, it was getting finished but it was missing few parts. One of those parts was kernel. So people glued together this low level kernel called Linux, mid level GNU and some other stuff on top of it. It was first known as GNU/Linux and slowly GNU was kicked out of the name even though 'Linux' - the whole OS constisted more of GNU than Linux kernel.

Doesn't this seem like injustice? Am I wrong somewhere?

You can write better programs by relying exclusively on the good parts. ♥

What almost made me quit: They still use SVN...

Aaaand until recently, some parts of their framework had to run on Java 1.5...

I researched a bunch of really beefy computer parts yesterday and the total for the PC came out to be just $2,500 INCLUDING $500 in monitors (HD 144HZ 27')

I genuinely thought this build would be upwards of $4,000

Time to max out the old credit card

Since I'm still alive and the future parts of my life is a mystery , I say:

#include <limits.h>
int main(){
int worst=INT_MIN;
int best=INT_MAX;
while(1){
//keep coding
if(dead) break;
}
}

Well I want to set up a home lab. So I just spent a bit over 3000 bucks buying parts 😃😅

The office PCs are finally done 😌 Real beauties I think! 😊
Built 3 of them today with each the same parts:
- Ryzen 7 2700X
- Asus B450 Plus
- 16GB G.SKILL TridentZ RGB RAM
- M.2 Samsung 970 500GB SSD
- RX 570 8GB Armor Edition
- Bequiet CM 600W PSU
- NZXT H500 Case
- Riing 12 coolers

How to clean the new Macbook Pro ->
- Clean outside
- Open MacBook
- Mac boots up, fuck
- Shut mac down
- Clean the keyboard
- Accidently boot it up using Touch ID while cleaning inner aluminum, fuck
- Shut mac down again, because haven't done touchpad and screen yet
- Clean remaining parts
- Boot mac up

Efficient! :D

It's time to put my 3D printer together 😍

All the parts I ordered have arrived accept for two timing belts.

Super excited, will post pictures in a couple days when I finish building it and writing the firmware for it.

Made me always think something like:
Code: should i delete it or just comment it out?

Files: should i delete this file or just rename it as .old?

OldHW: should i put it in the bin or i can recycle some parts?
Etc......

Who wants to buy $77.44 worth of arduino parts (including an UNO, two Pro Micros and a Digispark)

For best offer + SH (Paypal)

Parts consist of two sepperate kits and a few individual parts purchased.
All parts are unused (besides the Digispark) but some have been opened.

Message me on Telegram @thecyaniteproject or Discord @Kianite#3935 for exact parts listing.

Backstory: (If this is even needed)
I spent a lot of money on parts for a project after everyone told me it was a bad idea. Spoiler: It was a bad idea.

Just saw someone use Bing unironically as their main search engine. They have a masters in computer science.
Equal parts horrified and kinda tempted to study them like a creature

I used to screw around with the school computers, nothing much, a few batch files here, a few html scripts there. But once, they took away my use of the computer for, "Tampering with very important parts of the computer." Yeah.
Don't do html in school, kids.

Time to make a deal with the devil

@theabbie since you love downloading the entire devRant db and writing little gimmicks, I have an idea for you.

Avatars are envcoded as URLs. Each part of an avatar is separated by an underscore. Shirt, pants, desk, whatever.

Make a bot or script or website or what-fucking-ever to query users with the same avatar as you. This would be:

- Same EXACT avatar (desk, pets, etc)
- Same body parts as you (face, skin color, hair, etc)
- Same body parts and clothing (everything that shows in the mini avatar next to comments, plus pants and shoes, I guess)

The doppelganger finder. Honestly I think it would be neat.

Would be even cooler if you could filter by active users (last post/comment within past 3 months)

At an auto parts store and was taking a look at the UI.

I FOUND A DINOSAUR!

More realistically I saw F20 as a shortcut key. How I know it wasn’t a typo? There was also F16. Wow. Even their keyboard stop at F12.

Talk about legacy program.

Since learning electronics I have a new found love for fixing peoples printers:

Now I actually look at it before saying "yep it's fucked! Better get a new one, do you want me to toss the old one for you?"

I'm now only one rail away from having a cnc machine.

Two types of days:
Sit down and say imma be productive and then just end up scrolling through unrelated articles for 3 hours.
And, Sit down and say imma just do something quickly before going out and then end up restructuring whole parts and being up till 6am.

I think javascript is a great language, but it has some really ugly parts.

For some reason, it really annoys me that JS developers are ok with things like

if (typeof something === "undefined")

I mean, comparing strings like that!

When coding takes over your life!🙈

Look, I don't really mind much whether you use tabs or spaces. But for FUCK'S sake, for the LOVE OF FUCK:

IF YOU USE TABS, DON'T TRY TO LINE UP PARTS OF YOUR CODE WITH SOMETHING ON THE LINE ABOVE BECAUSE IT WILL GO TO SHIT WHEN SOMEONE ELSE HAS A DIFFERENT TAB WIDTH SETTING.

YOU DRIBBLING FUCKPUPPET.

Started learning Javascript. Came across many weird things. Like 'this' refers to the object in which the function is but when it is used inside a function which is inside another function it starts referring to the Global Object???Seriously?? I don't get it😕😵😢

But still I am starting to love Javascript along with its weird parts😁

Sometimes, rewriting a project can be faster, more time efficient and better to read than trying to fix the single inefficiencies in parts of the code.

LEGIT FUCK ME!

So I use KDE Neon RN. One day, it randomly doesn't boot. Checked logs, sddm was fucked. Reinstalled. Everything worked fine for a day, next day: fucked. Reinstalled, disabled sddm (auto login) and then a day later: basically no services start / are missing and random parts of the os randomly crash.

Wtf do I do 😢

Came across this in a site work took on from another agency. Bad JS calculation of someone's age, there was many other terrible date manipulation parts throughout the site

Hey guys, wanna see some spaghetti code? This is some parts of Yandere Simulator. More in comments

When your non-programmer boss asks how exactly some code/bug was fixed.

"You sure? I mean, alright... "

It's not like every time something doesn't work right, this will be the fix. We're not going to have a conversation in the future where you help me troubleshoot something by remembering parts of this conversation.

That feeling of betrayal when you finally find a proper, well written and well formatted article/tutorial about a framework (or anything you are learning), only to find out it is "Part 1" and no other parts were ever written...

That strange feeling which equal parts depressing and exciting when you've got to update your devrant avatar because you got a haircut.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

in some parts of the world it is 28 already and it is my birthday. so age++
not mentioning it because of stress ball but because I need lot of best wishes as the road ahead is very difficult and dreams are very big.
thanks everyone here to make me feel home

Azure portal is all I hate about Windows in a single, convenient, accessible web page.

Worst part being there are some parts of my work requiring me to deal with it on a daily basis as there is no PowerShell equivalent command, nor any API I could use, to perform some tasks.

It bothers me when potential employers *require* a salary expectation in your application. It's like they're focusing on the wrong parts. I don't even consider places that do that, no matter how cool the job sounds. Remember kids, in negotiations, the first one to mention a number loses.

My setup. Not much but im proud to say that i didnt overspend in parts (ok mwy the mastercase 5 was not necessary but it looks sick imo). Just need a proper 2nd screen and then a 3 rd and a 4th....

I just found out that my partner writes his increment operators with a space between the variable and the operator.

i ++;

anybody else do that because he's changed parts of our code to include the space and it's frustrating

Today I bought some parts at Conrad Electronics (they have a blue logo) and wore a blue shirt.
I got asked for technical support a total of five times.😅

<insert bear grylls meme>
Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.

Lesson learned: take measures before buying parts

Aaaaargh!! When your predecessor decides to incorporate (in an already technology too diverse project) another 5 new frameworks just to add an 'one pager app', that has a grid display of some data and almost no other functionality.. o.O FML!! Oh and also this page looks totally unlike other parts of the software.. yay!! :/

Time math is one of the most headache inducing parts of any programming project. I'd rather deal with uncommented recursion and regex.

I've been working for the last 5 years on some large legacy code used in production, more than 100K LOC, poor comments (when existing) often outdated, huge parts of code that can no longer be reached, over-engineered class hierarchy, functions of thousands lines, huge parts of deprecated code that cannot be removed because "someone might still be using it". Statistically, every small change caused 3 new issues somewhere else and every bug fix or new feature required 10 times the time that would be necessary with a decent codebase. But after five years in hell I can finally say that... Oh wait, nothing changed, the code is still legacy and nobody is going to do anything about that.

first off, i think this may be out of scope but either way.

i think along the rants, a tag seperated section for programmer tips could be pretty neat :)

i'll start off, my tip of today would be: if it seems too complex, it probably is.
consider refactoring by splitting into multiple smaller parts or even its own seperate API. :)

Going through some pretty fucked up shit right now : a string containing an SQL query goes though a 100+ lines function full of if{} else{} with up to 5 levels of indentation, where it replaces some parts of the query with other words... 😱

Me: *holy shit there's a lot of code in this template file, I should probably break it up I to components*

*goes through the effort to break everything up into component parts*

Me: *i should quit being lazy and actually register all my templates the way magento wants me to*

*5 hrs later*

Me: fuck this! *<?php include ...?>*

Im excited because I'm getting new pc parts for free.
The parts are:
* AMD 8 core CPU ( not sure which model )
* 16 GB ram
* some good graphics card ( not sure what model )
* motherboard
* cooling ( still not Sure what it will be, the guy was very vague )

It's also coming just before my birthday

Yeah, life is hard but 3d printing moving mechanical parts is harder.

@dfox I recently started playing around with Neo4j and find it really fun to work with. Would there be any way to get hold of parts of the devRant graph/graphs? Not private or secret stuff of course - only public parts of rants, tags and users. It would be fun to to play around with and analyze.

Me and my coworkers are pretty lucky. Your head of development is a developer himself and our CEO listens to developers on advice and actually tries to understand which parts are hard to build and which parts work very well.

YAY. THEY'RE HERE

One is going on my bookbag and the other two will be the first on my tower once I manage to get the rest of the parts for it to be up and running

My Frankenstein monster.

Scraped out of discarded parts thrown away by friends and ex's (in most cases easily fixable by changing fried parts).
It looks like shit and runs even worse, but considering that out off all the setup only mouse and keyboard are actually bought and not 8+ years old or held together with glue and hope, I'm quite fond of it.

Today I learned:

My computing teacher has never thought about having the front end and back end as different apps. He always just connects to the database from the client and calls the clients non-gui parts the backend.

I now understand why he was so confused when I said I was thinking about the backend accepting web-based and desktop-based clients.

The only parts of my body that aren't currently hurting are my legs. And my hands.

Help.

Quoting Douglas.

Why do teachers tend to not explain parts of their code?
I got some C++ material and example code for doing some rendering, and the material says "these parts are not important".
Guess what? If the whole thing does not compile when i remove the unimportant code, it was fucking important!

I'm pretty sure I've said this before but I'm attempting to transition parts of my Patchwork OS to a new one that supports GNU GRUB / Multiboot.

I think I am finally going insane.

When you're talking about how awful it is and they think you mean your desk

I have an HP stream
this thing is a McFucking™ potato (and it's HP so i can't even get inside and replace the stock parts for good ones without breaking it)

Hey guys i wanna build a Pi-like Cluster to try out kunernetes locally and I would like some parts advice for the boards, casing, cooling, and the rack itself.

so far I have a Cisco E1200 Router I would use for the cluster for SSHing and connecting to

The fun starts now, after 5 years this computer has stopped working, hah, new parts arrived today :)

So I'am reading this 'JavaScript the good parts'-book. I start liking it more and more now.

"A drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts." - William Strunk Jr.

Lua rocks.

You know what also rocks?

Moonscript.

Imagine python if python minus the bad parts.

I'm reading 'JavaScript: The Good Parts'. Nearly a quarter of the way through and all I've read about are bad parts. I thought this would make me like JavaScript more, not less!

Resolve to leave laptop at home on a long weekend vacation away to force yourself to relax and not work on anything. Spend parts of weekend thinking: "this would be the perfect spot/cafe to work on the snail simulation!"

"It takes confidence to throw work away … When people first start drawing, they’re often reluctant to redo parts that aren’t right … they convince themselves that the drawing is not that bad, really — in fact, maybe they meant it to look that way." - Paul Graham

that feel when I am the only one in team who knows at least one framework.. and coworkers refuse to learn and instead copy and paste code parts from old, insecure apps into new apps... 😐

Product manager: When building new features, we find we have bugs that reappear in other parts of the app where the bug was solved before. We have to find a solution to this issue.

Dev: These are called regressions, they happen all the time in software development.

Product manager: ...

Dev: Fuck outta here! Its friday!

The moment I realized test cases are just super tiny applications that make use of parts of your codebase to run things and see what happens.

The joy of seeing the customer be extremely happy about stupid small things, completely ignoring the difficult parts

So today I've had the idea of implementing Node.JS in Python because I love Node.JS but sometimes I hate the whole ".JS" part of it. It will be a fantastic learning exercise with TCP sockets and such, and will be good for learning the more intricate parts of Python as well.

Excited for Nodepy!

Okay so my friend got me kingdom come deliverance for my day of birth and ive been playing it nonstop (the game not my friend). This shit is so cool, its skyrim without all the annoying parts AND YOU CAN FUCKING DIE HERE FINALLY. I love medieval stuff.

my thighs are thicker than my accent. they all want me to crush their... body parts with them, but for you, it has to be something special. Just for you, with my thighs, I will crush your self-esteem, and, probably, your will to live.

Just left my first "here be dragon's" comment... I feel dirty.

I am required to develop using the WORST documentation, that I was told is 100% accurate, but contradicts itself, had blank parts, etc. When I emailed the creator, they fixed the parts I mentioned, but didn't proof the rest.

The math is probably all wrong, but I am working off their information and it seems to work in the one case they gave...

DA FAQ DONT ASK ME TO COMPLETELY CHANGE THE FUCKING UI U BASTARD!!! I HAVE SPENT HOURS ON SOME PARTS!😣😡👿

* Start maintaining/upgrading new project at work
* Read book on best practices for the framework
* quickly realise all the "don't do this" parts of the examples in the book is EXACTLY how everything in the project is done
* cry self to sleep

!rant :) FUUUUUUUUDGE YEAAAAH!
it's so satisfying when you've been working on a huge ass thing(when maybe you should have tested individual parts) and it just fucking works as intended amazing, I love it!

It's so beautiful to see your own compiler(jk just scanner+parser atm) compile code successfully

I value our most senior developer. His code is certainly clean and structured. He is the ultimate at KISS. However he's not a fan of testing and instead just says, well, did it compile? No matter how much I show him how great testing is, he comes back with how it's pretty unnecessary. Somehow, in the deep dark parts of the web, he finds articles that comply with his standing. I'm okay with him not making tests, I do it myself. But then when working extending or implementing his code, many of my parts are untestable because the parents are. Oye.

Am I the only one who uses the breakpoint feature in PHPStorm for highlighting parts of code instead of actually debugging?

When your boss decides to adjust the website you've spent 20hours+ on, fucks up several parts of it and then a) Doesn't tell you about it and b) Doesn't even attempt to fix it.

This is why I want to go freelance... And hate people...

When having to fix parts from an other programmer's code, do NOT concentrate on the small code expected to be wrong, instead read and understand the whole program around it!

Best practice:
1) Why is this code here
2) What does this code do
3) How does the code solve the problem

(just happened to me 😅)

Microservices! So many little services and parts communicating and working together and everything going to shit on my first 100 tries, love it.

Last night I found two Athlon XP processors in my house. They're a 2400 and a 2700, but I don't know if they work because I don't have other parts to test them.

Nothing too interesting, I just thought it was kinda cool

The best feeling you can have, is when rewriting big parts of code and it works perfectly first try.

Meetings truly bring up the best parts of you.

Am I the only one that doesn't comprehend why they didn't attempt to recover the shards of Anton's corpse? I mean there really isn't anything to lose and some parts may still be working. My brother and I could only conclude that it wouldn't be as dramatic as the straight up massacre by recklessness

Don't try and fix parts of the code that isn't 'broken' in the clients eyes.... You'll spend hours fixing something they'll neither appreciate or understand

I asked for SVG icons from figma design.

He did the part.

But.

He didn't group the icons

Just saw somebody zoom into a picture to crop parts of it and saving the same image - instead of atleast taking a screenshot of it, had to hold back a good laugh, when they 10 seconds later understood what they just did 😅

Why the hell the mutant-frankenstein language known as Javascript even exists?

Why back in the day couldn't they use an existing language's syntax for interacting with the web, Like Android did with Java?

Don't get me wrong, I like using js. But it has too many weird inconsistent parts which feel very quirky. Even more than Python.

Joke about C++

C++ is the only language in which you and your @friend(function) can play with each others private parts.

The best parts of day are meetings with my boss. Meetings where said boss is always late, and inevitably asks "is it time"!

Me: I should divide my project in small parts. It will be a piece of cake.
Also me: (on last day of submission) 76 commits in 34 minutes.
*Face Palm* 🤦‍♂️

We all love dark themes right?
Anymore uses ES explorer for Android?
Hey the dark team is back... Just install this bullshit app about car parts that I'll never use and you can change to the dark theme

An issue occurs, resolve it with a "Could not reproduce", client asks for a report on what happened, what parts did it affect and how will we prevent it in the future...

To make things worse it looks like it might have been an issue with MSSQL server throwing weird data out and not a problem with my code...

A person asked me to look for parts to build a computer for her. She has a tiny budget and wants to play games. I asked what kind of games and she won't tell me more than "games from steam". She won't even give me an example. Also, she doesn't want to buy parts like the psu and housing used, but I already have problems fiting anything better than onboard graphics into this rediculous budget. Why are many people so ignorant?

MOUSER! If I select ‘In Stock’ in your filter I want to see, who would have guessed, only parts that are in stock! Why do you think I want to see all the stuff that's on order?

Why are there people that still don't use the metric system? It is so stupid and cost so much.
We formally adopted the metric system about 150 years ago. Why are systems that where developed 100 years later still based on stupid units that are based human body parts that differ between each person?

1/3rd of my work today was documenting my all the parts of my project that haven’t been documented and it felt good

The good parts of being a game developer: watched E3 all week. Now back to work...

I AM going to put parts of my SUPPORT request in CAPITALS to point OUT how annoy I am.

SORT IT OUT

Seriously FUCK OFF

I love the whole NodeSchool thing, so not really a dis to them - but this is a good example of some of the problems I have with web tutorials. I think things like npm should be explained before you have someone use them. Just like jQuery, you can end up with a majority of people taking parts of their stack for granted.

FML, I based my parts of my small framework on a wrong assumption and now I have to rethink about 30% of it

Not sure whether to tag this as a rant or a joke, because it feels like equal parts of both. So fucking disappointed with Australian government.

3d printer
I only assembled it from prusa parts but still it was lots of fun, learned a lot about how 3d printers work.

Then it was printing trex using 3d printer and it was funny to because it took me about a month to do so just because of amount of parts and the problem with parts that were broken and needed to be fixed.

From software projects, once I build a browser plugin in 2-3 hours cause I was pissed off with those shitty popups all around. I published it on browser store, made code opensource and forgot about it.

Recently I got some survey from a german university about it and I was like wtf ?
I looked at a statistics and my plugin had about 500 daily users and I was amused because the ui is shitty as fuck and the ux is even more shitty.

I plan to update this plugin but since I am focused on a bigger personal project for almost half a year now I have no time to do it.

I'm fear this day might come to Software too. You buy a *full* licence for Windows Pro and you get the ServicePack2, because the Windows and SP1 cannot be [for some reason; legally?] used in your area.

What the f...

Linux, Linux, Linux. That is ALL I hear around these parts! If ya think about it nobody makes a dime off of Linux instead of the end-user. Well, unless that user is a developer. In that case, OPEN SOURCE EVERYTHING boi.

**Yoda conditions**
(also called Yoda notation) is a programming style where the two parts of an expression are reversed from the typical order in a conditional statement.

Is there a name for the phenomenon whereby you iteratively modify code to try to fix a bug, with no apparent result, and then realize it's an entirely different part of the code causing the issue, but the parts you were modifying actually did need modifying too?

Wrote a REALLY bad, simple java method to generate the repetitive parts of c# classes

Now I’m curious about good code generation methods. How I probably should’ve done this

Think I could get some advice and links on how to start learning to write simple code generators?

When you propose a project and your friend programms the funny parts that you seek forward to do, while you had no time to spare. 😭😭😭

To those of us who suffer from "Not invented here syndrome", I want you to ask yourself this question. If "reinventing the wheel is so valuable", would you re-implement the entire OSI stack?

No, as it would be a COMPLETE waste of time!!!

In all the layers below your application, several things related to how your code gets presented to your end-user are abstracted away from you. If you are able to accept that completely, why do you feel the need to re-implement every well-understood part of your particular project?

Cars, for example, are mostly made from standardized parts that solve well-understood problems. It then may have a few custom parts that may solve some novel problems to make it stand out from the rest.

Buildings are made completely from standardized parts, with regulations on how they are put together with some room for artistic flare.

If Software wants to be as equally respected as the rest, we need to get to that point.

DONT reinvent the wheel, just use battle-tested parts and just focus on what your project is trying to solve. It will be way more fruitful and fulfilling.

It was one cold winter night, lonely and sad, until my mom's coworker brought to our house an old computer from their company.

It was like heaven come down to earth, when he assembly all parts together.

I was filled with joy and excitement, until I saw Windows start screen.

Worst day of my life. Linux for life!

There are a few constants in Software Development:

1) The requirements always change.
2) Don't trust input.

Silly me was so naive to ignore 1 and 2 and later I dealt with the consequences.

1) Oh, we have this new API and we're only going to build Google Maps interfaces with it. Nice, easy task. We won't have to address the other parts of the library, wooh! The next day: "Yeah guys, we kinda wanna use the other parts now". Me: sigh.

2) Simple task: I have my API accept CSV files so I can generate graphs out of them. What could go wrong? Provide wrong file? I caught that. Provide completely fucked up and garbled CSV? Whoops.

How the fuck am I supposed to go on learning embedded programming, when almost all chips/parts take at least 2 months to ship...
This will take ages 🙃

being middleware... had to split up back end work in two parts which wasn't necessary but for 1 day it is split up and at the end 3 days delayed because of split up... controlling temper was the biggest challenge of that part.

I invited a colleague to the repository and taught her some basic git so she could edit some texts without having to interrupt my workflow.

All of a sudden, some parts stopped working. Guess i should have been a bit more articulate when telling her about commit messages..

It was my birthday recently, so I ordered myself some PC parts and built my first PC.
Unfortunately my 350-Plus motherboard and Ryzen 1700 could not get my RAM to 3200 Mhz, only 2966 :( :( :(

I wrote a RESTful(ish) API today and it was beautiful. The API looks exactly how I wanted it, the logic is clean and readable, it has some extensibility built-in without cluttering the code.

There are parts I'm not thrilled about but that's mostly due to having to interact with legacy systems. Super proud of myself!

I wonder if there is a Galaxy where at the fashion Show instead of women there are just Code parts walking on the catwalk and it is a Contest which Code is the most beautiful .. Lol

I see this term “full stack developer” pop up all the time, does anyone want to explain what it means? A dev who knows all parts of the stack, and a stack is what..?

I can't read a documentation 'til the end. I, on the first few parts, would be like: "Oh this documentation is so good. Why would someone need a tutorial for this?" And then suddenly: "What the fck is this sht? I don't understand life anymore." So I end up buying a course on Udemy cause all the other YouTube tutorials are rubbish.

I love the reason why my "realtime buses"-app needs to have access to my position "always"... wonder what other parts of the app he just copied from somewhere, not knowing what it does!

Are automatically configured antivirus tools simply shit or is it IT , who obviously does not know what their software does?

* AV blocks parts of my dev tools
* Ticket to IT
* Result: AV blocks all my dev tools

Okay ... thanks?

What is your opinion on Agile?

I was studying through my textbook for a test tomorrow and the Agile Philosophy section sounded like a Team Rocket manifesto at some parts:

Responding to change over following a plan
Individuals and Interactions over processes and tooks
Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation.

Isn't it weird that some parts of the world have crossed over to the next decade and some haven't. (If you consider 2020 the start of a new decade).

Anyways cheers to the end a year and the beginnings of a new one. Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year

import classNames from "classnames";

imagine installing, importing, and using a package that is solved quite literally by built in parts of the language

yawn

i grow weary

Right now, in my student job.
Create a multi-department + multi-lingual intranet, only using SharePoint and out of the box features. Can't add my own scripts or web parts. I'm now the master of workarounds

It seems he is trying to replace HTML with svg and canvas when basic html and css can be used to make beautiful dashboards.

Like i anticipated it is gonna be a ux cluster fuck, where most of the website is an ugly bootstrap contraception and some parts gonna look like futuristic.

WOOOOH I HAVE BEEN GIVEN WORK.
.

.

Think I offended people cos I already finished it and when I got given it i said "Is this it?".

.....AND THIS MOTHERFUCKER TOLD ME TO DO A LOOP IN SQL TO UPDATE A TABLE. I'LL CUT OFF ALL PARTS OF HIM

Sometimes i like to break my code on purpose, to force me to refactor those parts and rewrite them more efficiently.

I find it hard to improve existing, working code, because it limits me and it does not inspire me to come up with something better
