When bug is feature...

Reading other people's rants.

Step 1. Get a large touchscreen monitor. Connect it.

Step 2. Modify the driver so touches don't actually cause clicks or anything.

Step 3. Let it play a sudden, loud BEEP instead. Increase the volume for each subsequent touch.

Step 4. Lean back and watch people learn that you don't like your screen being touched.

Rants, Google Instant way.

Job opening tells us that they want someone who knows:
C, C++, C#, Java, VB, PHP, HTML, Javascript, MySql, Postgree, windows, Linux, Mac OS, a degree in computer science and a few years of experience.

What you'll actually do in most of those jobs: Deal with Excel spreadsheets.

True story.

Im disappointed that the weekly rants did not start with wk0

Rant number 1000. Let's see how this one goes :D

Here a beer as for celebration!

2 mins of silence for all those rants you composed, yet you chose to not post it.

devRant algo at its best.

Look what I found!
Even my L3 cache is bigger than this!

“Those were the days😂”

Hello devRant! I was introduced to this app by a friend and decided to share my own rants.

Short tale from IT:
*User's laptop full of viruses upon 1 day of use*
User: It came like this! One of your IT guys must have put viruses on it.
Me: Yeah I'm sure that's the case.
*Sees rediculous download history in the last 24 hours*

I'm sure there will be plenty dev rants to come, as I am starting my software development career very soon.

She: "Better not visit devRant for the next.. weeks"
Me: "Lol, what have I done?"
She: "The new iPhone is out"
Me: "..."

I need to stop reading devRant posts on the train and in public in general. These rants be cracking me up too much. Most awkward when you try to explain to someone who cares to know what's so funny and you know they can't relate so you're just sitting like.....

Happened with anyone?

Why can I subscribe to my own rants? 🙃confused 🙃

What the shit!!!

At 11:00
While studying
"ah... I'm sleepy, can't tolerate any more", and just go to bed.

At 11:05
While scrolling rants
"hahaha... So true, same happened with me.. bla bla...."

At 12:47
Doing same thing from last 1 hour 40 mins
Even not sleepy yet!!!

It's too addictive. Having so much good posts, much better than fb feeds.... Loving the rants... New experience

gotcha

Why is everyone running behind "algo strikes again"?

It is meant for that purpose.

Can we, please, put some substance into our rants? Over the course of the last weeks the amount of rants of the type "%NAME% %SWEARWORDS%" has increased tremendously. You want tell everyone that (for example) Windows can go fuck itself? Great. But why? What is the story behind you're enragement?

Please make this place more fun to browse by sharing stories. Not just a random amount of names and swearwords.

When rants line up....

All those fucking non-programmers in my university should fuck off!! Just because am studying computer science and am in 2nd year doesn't mean i have to be like Mark and build Fucking facebook!!
Mark started in his 2nd year...bla bla fuck you!! You wanna make facebook go learn how to code yourself worthless piece of shit.
So much talent is discouraged even before it buds because of these stupid expectations!!

Not enough rants.
Need more rants.

Third time I Miss my metro station because i'm reading rants.. Yep devRant is awesome 😊

Couldn't find a mug mug anywhere. Found this at my boss's desk.

There are so many awesome dev jokes and puns here, i want to share them all with my friends. But i know none of them would understand whats so hilarious about them :(

Letmecode rants about me

I hate how people complain when someone posts a !rant, but then also complain about legitimate rants. "wow, you were angry in that one! Why the all caps?" WHY THE FUCK NOT? This is devRant, where we rant about things. If someone is genuinely pissed off about something, then they should be able to come here and express their anger! If we use all caps, then we're extremely pissed! There's nothing wrong with that! If windows started an update in the middle of a project, you have all rights to complain about it here. Let us rant in peace!

funny lol

Devs hate each other

Probably wasn’t a good idea to cuss out the boss. 😂

Apologies to everyone.

I got sick.
Hence, resulted in service unavailability.

Current health status: 100% OK

Please continue to enjoy me aka github

++ing a rant and then realising you don't like that rant !

We should give it a name to when devRant algo nails two consecutive rants with a purposeful meaning

@dfox maybe it's a good idea to make devRant available for splitscreen on phones :D

I think it's amazing to listen to my girlfriends ranting on whatsapp and scrolling through devRant at the same time! (double ranting)

I've only been away for 3 days...

Today just shipped my first fullstack application...the feeling is awesome! Even if no one uses its mine!!!

Things that give me chills early in the morning. A password reset email that contains my password in plain text.
Seriously! 🤦‍♂️

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.

that moment when one of your comments have more ++'s than most of your rants! 😂

What if?

Easy. Was creating a website for a client and they asked if we could add "those, what do you call them? Yeah cliparts" to the website.

Cliparts? Really? Those silly cartoon things from MS Office?

Touch my screen, i dare you

I mean go ahead, its a touchscreen, cool, huh?

Can we add cliparts to the new website?

When residual +1's trickle in from an old rant of mine, I feel like a rockstar from the 80's who still gets royalty checks from that one hit they recorded...

Le college freshman nibbas: Don't know C, Java, C++, python or any other programming language but want to do AI and machine learning!

Code never lies
Comments sometimes do

Nah!
Code lies too, especially when you train a neural network 😂😂

Ranting about the fear that some of your colleagues may discover the existence of devRant and can discover your rant about him/her.

A good code shouldn't look like this huh?

So, I'm living in a completely computer illiterate family and I was called to help my father with something on a Laptop where he wanted to stream his favorite Soccer-Club.

So I walk up to him, ask what's wrong, and he says (roughly translated from German) "That thing doesn't work!"

And I'm just like ((Wat u mean))
So I ask him to explain the problem in detail.
Apparently his streaming service wasn't loading his stream.

Well damn I say, try searching for the problem on Google and find a solution.
((But no no no imma just call my son for everything that's freaking wrong with tech, he sure knows what to do))

As I'm not that experienced with Webservices as of yet, I had no idea what to do.

He was fucking furious!

"You always act like you know everything about tech and programs and stuff and can't even help me with fixing this Stream-Thing?!"

I responded simply by saying "It's not my area of work!"

Seems like he didn't know the difference between TECH-JESUS and hobbyist software engineer.

So I stand there and he just goes on one of these typical boomer tech illiterate rants, of which I'm sure you can imagine enough being on this platform.

tl;Dr; It pisses me of big time how people are not even trying to understand technology, nor attempting to help themselves by eG. Googling some simple problem, but rather just ask around and then being pissed off if the asked person just doesn't know the answer or can't help!

Mozilla >>chrome

It works :)

Am I the only one around here that checks daily rants before going to sleep? O.o

The freaking furniture people didn't complete things on time and our business development department is still not finished. The freaking reception desk is not there yet.

Here I am going to my new office on Saturday morning. Not to code but to monitor those guys to get things done by today.

F***!!! I can never post a rant/comment without making a typo and then realizing it and then editing it. Evry single one is edited.... why??😲

First week of my first dev job.
Everything is awesome. No rants.

With all the people around here ranting about their PM's, I'm really curious to see how a PMRant app would look like. What are they complaining about?
Devs that listen to music all day long and never want to be disturbed?
Engineers who talk in long, incomprehensible words?
...TDD taking too long?

When dev rant is the devil but you're cool with it because the memes are relatable.

When rants are TLDR

I guess we had a chrome update...

Hello devRanters. I'm new to this community but I've already started feeling comfortable here. You guys are great!

I don't understand why there are more rants about front end developers. I hardly see any rant by a system developer or a security analyst.

Currently working on a simple, front-end UI project that is actually a bet with a friend and that means a whole load of CSS 💀 Anyways, decided that an element didn’t look so good and decided to fuck around with its positioning. I proceed to change one value and I kid you not, the whole fucking screen distorts and all the other elements end up somewhere else. I obviously smash the Ctrl-Z right away and had to take a good look at everything in my code. Now I just resort to "border: 1px solid red;" around something if its acting fishy 🤷🏻‍♀️

Switching to macOS was an entry to paradise.

I go to Windows only to play Call of Duty. It’s crap and always will be.

P.S no comments on Linux.

I suggest, if the OP comments in his/her post, the OP's username should have a red stroke (or whatever color)

Very high number of quality rants lately. Trending up fast in my opinion. Even today - Saturday which used to be a lighter day.
Becoming a nice challenge to read them all. Way to go. Keep on ranting! What do you think about the rant volume and quality?

What an error Message...so descriptive everyone knows what it means

If your client doesn't know what the fuck he wants to see on his website even with all text and images included - don't take this fucking job.

They will let you choose a template and you end up switching it 5 times. "Oh we don't like it. What else do you have? Oh, this looks better." Next day "We don't like this theme anymore. We want to switch to what we had before."

If people can't draw their home page on a paper I tell them go fuck yourself straight in a face. I always put these people on my reference list so my future clients know I'm straightforward, not lazy, not low skilled, but honest with dumbasses like some of my previous clients.

You are asking for a basic website with 5 pages, you have a shitty budget and then I have to customize the entire theme and tweak every fucking possible element in CSS, HTML and PHP. Go fuck yourself. All you get for your money is WordPress with 15 min consultation how to copy paste your shit and save it. Never do fixed budgets, never work on projects like this if it's under $500-1000. Meet with the client to understand him/her better and see if he is a jackass-perfectionist or a chill person who won't be picky.

That's my memories of being a freelancer, trying to get any job for any budget just to build my portfolio. Never going back to this, at least not for small businesses with less than $5,000 budget. Reading people before you start working with them is a good thing.

Sudden realization: wk82 rant... year has 52 weeks?! Ok, must be from the beginning of week rants and going on... But are these week rants a thing from the start of the devRant?
Is devRant.getAge() == weekRants.getAge() true?

Bloggers are the biggest scum bags ever. Mind me, I'm not talking about the people who blog about something they love, are passionate about and focus on the quality of content.

I'm talking about those people who blog for money, put low quality content and are sucking everyone's dick for views. I've no respect for them. They'll start blogs about the topics they know shit about and will add duplicate content. And then they'll call themselves SEO experts.

You're shit bags. Don't decrease the name of blogging. We all start somewhere and often copy but doing it as a beginner and doing it for money is different.

I'll take example of one genius person I know. He runs a blog where he his topic was essentially about "Laptops for Indian students which are under 30,000 Indian rupees."

Title of that article read: LAPTOPS IN INDIA UNDER $500.

YOU'RE WRITING A BLOG POST FOR INDIAN STUDENTS AND USING US CURRENCY IN THE TITLE. WE ALL SEARCH IN RUPEES WHEN BUYING ONLINE.

I love bloggers who focus on quality of the content and take pride in crafting their content. You're awesome. But if you're one of those "professional bloggers" then suck my dog's dick.

Below is conversion in our organization between a developer and a manager....

Dev: "I don't know how Mac book pro touchscreen is implemented. Totally, awesome creation!!"

Manager: "It's quite simple!!! As long as you have huge RAM available, you can create anything. It's just man-made"

Ho**Sh*t...he sounds like only RAM is enough.... F*** manager....

Just ranted for 90 minutes on the Long Island Railroad and it seemed like 5 minutes! Thanks guys for all the cool rants.

You're Hired,
Now please remove the Virus.

this is the rant of the rants

So someone decides that the employees need to do these stupid Web-based training's that not even high school kids should be looking into.
What is about ?
Security and Cryptography, and now event the real stuff.

What it covers?
Alice and Bob, Bob and Alice.
Alice wants Bob some pics/messages that she suspects someone else will see. DDDDDDAAAAAAAFFFFFFFAAAAAAAAAKKKKKK

A total of 7 useless time wasting interactive and annoying training's, 20+ min each.

But someone forgot that please do not send this shit to engineers of your company, specially Software/Network engineers. Oh another subset, specially not to those who work deeper into the domain.

I'm getting paid to do this time wasting activity, and still.

I also may come back and remove this BUT FOR NOW I NEED TO RANT.

Wow, there's been no rants since my last visit

Does anyone ever have this, that, when you see a post with loads of upvotes/comments you're like 'fuck, I really should've posted that myself (insert weeks or whatever) ago... '

Anyone else think favoriting a rant should give the author some extra ++ or a counter in their profile?

I hadn't used devRant in a while since I'm preparing for an upcoming job interview and was trying to stay away from my phone.

However, I cracked today and I spent the whole afternoon staring at this beautiful dark-themed interface and reading rants.

Some App have Rants Built In

I don't really mind the presence of memes in DevRant. It balances out the actual rants with humor, which can be draining at times if that is all you look at all day. Do you?

How I react when I encounter bugs...

Yikes - head down ranting and almost missed train to the city. Whew - next one in an hour. Rants getting too good 😀

!rant && Thanksgivings++

I am truly thankful to be a programmer for it is the only job on Earth where doing mistakes is the profession itself.

Think about it. We make more mistakes than other professions on DAILY basis. If a doctor miss a step during a diagnosis or an operation, a fucking human being might die. Engineers, lawyers, teachers you name it. They are not allowed to make mistakes.

Us? We are earning money from other people for all the hours we spent fixing the mistakes which we made in the first place.

F**king sh*t management...there was a training schedule for Casandra (for basics and advance), I added my name to interested list and as I wanted my site ppl know I sent a email to HR stating to look at it and add more ppl....now I am out from the list and a line manager's name got added...WTF....why the hell he needs rather then a programmer... :(

I couldn't code today, I don't have a rant. Will society accept me? 😓

I'm gonna have to assume that the rants here that have nothing to do with a dev's life (usually someone's account of their sorry love life) are taken care of by the OP professionally outside of this platform, like I did.

Because if not, it's honestly sad and it can wear on our nerves.

Look, if you're gonna rant about your asshole cyka ex or this girl who never noticed you, and then put it in the rant category, at least find something in it remotely related to software development. Idk man, maybe talk about how your problem with your cheating gf made you delete the production database by accident...? Or how your medievalist boyfriend argued with you via email about your love for Arduinos then suddenly asked you to debug his Python code?

Or tag it "random" or "undefined" for the love of Mary Mother of God. Dev rants in the rant category are wonderful because I get to read about dev no-nos and fuckups man. We need our intellectual fix of dev rants man.

My uncle: I am very updated with technology, you can download the ebooks I torrented on my server

A little and sweet rant about RANTS! What the hell guys, I can finally think about a social network happily, but I have the feeling that I'm not a part of this awesome community :'( I mean, everyone is getting problem with some clients or whatever. But I'm currently unemployed, and never really get through that kind of problems. Ok they lied to me on the job, ok I paid 15000 euros 2 years of school where there were still people who doesn't care about the work, ok I left my girlfriend, ok I have a fucking hard time to go back to work with that... But all of this is not really juicy, my life is simple and mostly happy :'(
Maybe I should hope that my next job will be with stupid people :o
I love you guys <3

Its better to be at a good position in a shit company, than be at a shit position in a good company...

"You're lucky you're good with computers" -- no, I'm fucking not.

Anyone else suddenly started seeing really old weekly rants? (Specifically for me, wk4, wk11) Has the algorithm changed?

Having lots shitty comments and lots of shitty rants is like having passive income, the ++ come slowly but surely.

Well fuck. My filament run out. SHIIIIIIT and well its start of the year and i cant buy another spool. Fuck. Well i guess i will code some shit until i can buy some spool. This is fucking horrible. I know what i want for christmass at least. LOOOOOOOOOOT OF FUCKING FILAMENT !!!!!!!!!!! 50KG ? not enough ! 100KG Maybe i can do with that for few weeks. 200KG ? Ouuuu yeah. Naaaah just kidding. I will order a fucking 5KG spool. That should last till christmas i hope.
And breaking news: Im introducing new tag.

HAXK20 SHITTY RANTS !!!
I know amazing ?
You can now subscribe to me or if you want just the shitty rants then just search the tag.

Plebs be using IG, FB & Snapchat.
Then ranting about its full of shit.

Maybe they ain't so pleb but in development. Still don't get why someone would hate themselves to make such media their main.

I hate it when I start coding a React Native project on Monday at 8:30 am at work and my right lung malfunctions.

devRant makes me late for work in the morning...

When all the n00bs start signing up to devRant that have 0 idea what development and/or rants are!!

Best debugging trick ever:

Wear your fucking glasses while coding so that you do not mistake COMMA(,) with a DOT (.).

So by
1. Doing that (which obviously aren't a huge number) and
2. Cleaning my screen (yes that).

I was able to wrap my head around the issue that almost wasted one day.
So what I intended to pass as string concatenation join operation value actually was being passed as an argument to the underlying function (that wasn't taking care of it and returning a timestamp from thin air).

You know you have been working so much, that you have not visited devRant for a long time

Is it bad practice that I stay late(night) reading rants without coding?

I'm starting my apprenticeship tomorrow, wish me luck for all those rants to come :D

Why is DevRant consuming so much power in the background? My Android starts ranting about it every time I leave the app minimized.

Oh look the store is open now! I can get all the squish balls I want now.

I have no clue what GitLab is, what it does, and im feeling left out when most are ranting about GitLab deleting their database...
There! I said it!

Wow or wtf to these banks API. was integrating an API for a service which accept JSON input.
Okay fair enough, that would be fine
Spent an hour writing code(purescript) most of time spent was on writing Types based on the API doc. after that okay let me test the API it failed.
I was what happened? So tested the API from postman with the payload from the doc, it worked. What how?
used a JSON diff to compare the payload from postman and the log. Looked same to me after spending few hours checking what is wrong with it .trying changing value to pasting the body of the log request in postman and trying everything failed.
Later went to the original working payload provided by them and changing the order. It started throwing error. I was like wait what?
It must be only on there UAT. created a payload with production creds and hoping to our production server (they have IP whitelist) ran the curl with proper payload as expected it worked. Later for same payload changed the order or one key and tried it failed.
Just why????
I don't want to create a JSON with keys on specific order. Also it's not even sorted order.

I am SOOO fucking sick of being asked if our website and gaming servers are going to be GDPR compliant. All these game owners in a panic changing everything they do just to conform to this law.

Fuck GDPR. In all reality COME AT ME BITCH. The EU wants to grow a pair of balls and act like the world internet police? Bring it the FUCK on. You can't even stop pirating in your own country, so how the FUCK are you going to regulate and enforce this law on HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of servers, when your punk ass government can't even shutdown a single torrenting website.

Give me a fucking break, and shame on you pussies for allowing it. All you people running around scared acting like your private gaming servers are important. I give a shit less how much work you put into your server. I have put more work than most anyone else, but you don't see me trying to act self important as if my gaming server is some fortune 500 company.

Your server isn't important and neither are you. The government doesn't give a shit about your server so can we all just stop acting like this fucking matters. NO ONE FUCKING CARES ABOUT YOUR SERVER.

NO ONE is going to come and sue you for not complying. GDPR is for business, and anyone that wants to argue no look it says right here it applies to all is a fucking MORON. Do you idiots stop and think or do you just believe everything typed out on paper.

THEY CANT ENFORCE THIS ON EVERYONE. They don't have the resources. So use your fucking heads and stop being so fucking scared of a law that has no resources to stop you. THEY CAN"T DO ANYTHING. EU and whoever made their polices, I DARE them to try and touch my server, I WANT them to start something with me, just so I can show the rest of the world why the Internet is still the wild west and why they have no power over me.

You think pirate bay is the only one who knows how to hide their server? You think pirate bay is the only one who keeps backups of their server to be able to re release in an instant somewhere else in the world? Bitch get real this is the internet, a place where a 5 year old can buy hand grenades from the Red Silk Road, and you wanna talk to me about your privacy? Go fuck yourself.

It's not my problem some douche bag went onto a site that used his personal information in the wrong manner. So how about you do what everyone else does and browse ANONYMOUSLY. But no it would be to easy for governments to make their own citizens responsible. Instead they have to hold all of YOUR hands, because you people are to stupid to protect yourself.

Wake the fuck up world, and stop being a bunch of whining little brats who cry for the government to bubble wrap your world so you can live safer. Natural selection is long overdue for a lot of morons still breathing air.

What's this? Where's my rants!

Yet another rant on cooperate world

The other day my colleague was telling me that he was with very senior architect (so called architect, who keeps on changing things on the fly) and when my colleague was telling that he doesn't have resources to work with, this senior architect opened up stash (Atlassian Git) and opened up profiles with names and was looking at commits in the git...and said "this guy doesn't have commits for long time...he is free"

WTF.... 0 0

That feeling when you've already moved on from your previous rant and posted a new one - but your old rant keeps getting +1's while your new rant remains stagnant.

I had a user tell me how important he is and how our software is making it harder for important people like him to run reports on people in their region and how it "just doesn't make sense" for important people like him... and on and on and on and on.
I was on the phone for over 30 minutes.

Deep sigh

Just scrolled down my list of rants

I didn't even notice how much I've posted already
I like devrant, a lot

That moment when there are no more new rants, you check algo, latest and read all top and you just sit there lookong at the screen...

(inner self: start working on your side projects !!!!)

Some <super smart> person ran DHCP in production lab (without disconnecting from main network and/or using firewall)

Not so bad : I'll run on Monday.

What do rants means?

Funny. But doesn't say much.

"Code monkey not say it out loud. Code monkey not crazy just proud."
-Jonathan Coulton

Regarding many of my rants and, I would suspect, many rants on here.

Wasting time of 20+ developers to deliver a 'how to use a bug reporting system', coz:
- you've only 2 newembers in team, and
- just to have a bi-weekly meeting.
Is not productive, motivating and wise by any means.

Combined $$$/hr amount here is quite an important metric.

I made my own blog dedicated to personal rants on ZeroNet and count already 34 people sharing it. That's insane. I guess people like people ranting and that's what @trogus and @dfox figured before everyone ;)

Thank to this UPS driver ... i'm not going to get my package (laptop screen) until Monday evening.
Express Priority shipping $35.xx or whatever that is down the drain.

Feeling !@~!#@!@# when you come to know that you are not invited to meeting where architectural design is being discussed....and you will be the implementor for the sh*t stuff....

Its more p*ss*ng when you know the architect you work with doesn't know anything...and you need to impl and support it :(

I has been 1+ years into Scala world and I still don't hate Java :D

New things to keep me awake

Ranting in my winphone8.1 via web app and it is awesome!

Simply change the user agent to Firefox or chrome desktop and then go to
devrant.io/feed
Login, and enjoy!

I was wondering.... why are rants public?
Shouldn't be better for DevRant's feed to be visible only to logged members?

Git playlist. 😥

I'm on the verge of breaking this shit Windows based work laptop (Dell, so called i5, yes it's outdated but still) with idk what.
15 and a half mins since bootup and I've not been able to access Microsoft Outlook.

You cannot go wrong with that.

Nothing wrong here.

Twitter is down ...
Noooooo!!!!
Let me rant ... !!!!

You go very early to office with happy mood to code what you were thinking all night....and when you reach there is no network nor power (to laptop)....

Rants about devRant... So meta!

Stayed up all night to make interactive data visualizations from CFTC data and now I want to show it out.
BUT
No one is interested. Why Earth why?

Whatever, where is keyboard, and turn off the lights.

- Dark music plays.

Just fuck Java/Play framework.
I'll am counting the human minutes wasted in sbt compile.

If there's one thing I hate about devs is definitely when they get too emotional about the reviews they receive.

Doing a thorough review always takes significant amount of time and energy. It's about ensuring high quality of code, about functionality and best practices, ... It's also about learning: I learn from the changes being reviewed while at the same time I also try to teach the author as much as possible, giving down to earth opinions.

It's never (or at least should never be) about attacking the author. There really is no reason why someone would spend all this time getting overly personal.

I used to start my responses with (lousy) apologies for being "harsh", but stopped doing this now that my team understands all of this. It also helped asking them to do the same with my changes. The look in their eyes when they find something is simply invaluable :).

Am I the only one who will spend half an hour reading through the "top all-time rants" section of devRant to figure out why they're so popular? I just can't shake that feeling that there's some sort of pattern there that I can optimize...

Guess I must be a developer, given that last statement :D

In that frustrated moment where the code is right but doesn't work...
Boss is a non-technical guy who's like I don't care just get it done and I'm just sitting here staring at the screen not knowing what to do...

Which books are best for machine learning?

I feel like most of the problems people are ranting about would never happen if they worked in a proper environment with lint checks, unit tests, e2e tests etc.

It's worth the effort to get it!

Cant post rants sincen im on vacations and I Dont have my every day inspiration of rants :(

Software corporate show is run by feet and finger licking...non-technical guys....f*** morons...

Feature request (has most likely been already requested): @mentions in rants

!rant

Do you take your devRant stuff to work?

Don't you ever wonder whether they think that you are ranting about them on here?

Make an awesome app that lets devs rant about their daily basis and no one bites an eye, change the way they navigate and everyone loses their head
