Person: "Hey I need help with this thing"
DevRant Response: Helps out, no matter how n00bish it is
Stackoverflow Response: Flood the post with downvotes and complaints until it's deleted
Quora response: *Crickets*
/r/programming Response: Give like 2 responses to the question, both of which aren't helpful.
This is just one of the many reasons I love DevRant, and how I ended up finding it in the first place.9 -
Beep bop, I’m a bot.
Future CEO of GitHub Nat Friedman made an AMA on Reddit to respond to questions about the future of GitHub.
Of course, Clippy came up.

I walked down a street where the houses were numbered 64K, 128K, 256K, 512K and 1MB

I'm at the Web Summit in Lisbon and I had the opportunity of watching the founder of Reddit in a lecture. I hope that next year I'll be watching the founders of DevRant. They deserve to be here.

Q: Is there a word that describes a fear/phobia of regular expressions?
A: Common Sense3 -
So I asked a question related to a job application on reddit and who answers? SOMEONE WHO WORKS AT WHERE I'M APPLYING. ffs lol 😂😂1

Reddit: You share an insightful view, the weebs can't handle the cognitive dissonance and downvote you en masse. Mods are inexperienced, power tripping 12 year olds that are unable to self-reflect. It's cancer.
Long live Devrant.

Shamelessly ripped off of /r/programmerhumor
As someone that's been a part of a number of startups also 100% accurate

Exactly, this meme is so relatable!
I was working with MPAndroidChart (Charting Lib), most of the working functions are deprecated! And new ones are not working

WELL FUCK YOU REDDIT, I TRY NOT TO ADBLOCK YOU BUT NOW YOU START WITH THE AUTO PLAY ADS WITH NO WAY TO MUTE OR PAUSE THEM? FUCK YOU!6

!rant && thanksgivings.
Sure we troll here. Sure we preach strangers here. Sure we hug unconditionally here. But everything is all cool.
I haven't been here very long but I found this community very good to communicate. In fact, we are talking more than dev related things. But I literally don't see any conflict or well.. shit posts/comments.
Really thankful for that. To everyone.1 -

Just saw a thread about Global Reddit Meetup Day. Do we have one in devrant? If not, is it possible to have one? I know the user base is not comparable with reddit, but it would be fun meeting other local developers who rant too 😛8 -
How do you keep up with new information coming out every day? Like every time I browse Hacker News, Reddit or Twitter after 2 days I feel like living in another planet... It gets overwhelming at times.1

A manager, a mechanical engineer, and software analyst are driving back from convention through the mountains. Suddenly, as they crest a hill, the brakes on the car go out and they fly careening down the mountain. After scraping against numerous guardrails, they come to a stop in the ditch. Everyone gets out of the car to assess the damage.
The manager says, "Let's form a group to collaborate ideas on how we can solve this issue."
The mechanical engineer suggests, "We should disassemble the car and analyze each part for failure."
The software analyst says, "Let's push it back up the hill and see if it does it again."1 -
Alright then...
At least it parsed null as a string. Better than crashing, but the correct url would have been slightly better.

Am I the only one that devRant almost completely replaced Reddit for the "I'm currently waiting on something so I'm browsing" spot?
Since I've been on devRant, my time on Reddit and even HN diminished quite a lot!
Long story short, this place is amazing :P4 -
Accidentally went to Reddit when searching for Redux.
Well, there goes my day, my productivity, my motivation and anything I had in my mind.2 -
Retards at /r/pcmasterrace are laughing at this dialogue. Kind of shows how many of those people actually knows about PC.

The more I interact with people on Reddit, the more I realise that the world needs a new plague.3 -
Lesson of the day: never assume a language is bad based on internet comments.
PHP is awesome and solve most of my problems, I'm enjoying more to develop the server side of my app than the app itself and the language is not that complicated to learn and understand.
Do you have any related experience? I would like to hear from you.5 -
I really hate it when I try to be careful with disclosing information of my employer in a rant on Reddit but the CTO who fires me go there and replies in full detail in an attempt to shame you. http://archive.is/sfP00
Because I have bigger balls (or a small brain, depending how you see it) I'll leave the post on but with my response to his comment on my thread as anybody may dig my Reddit account before hiring me for a job.
And yes, he is the same guy I refer in this past rant https://devrant.com/rants/1089376/...
It fucking sucks that the CTO will sleep safe and sound and I can't do much than looking for another job and contribute to FLOSS projects while I build new stuff to improve my skills all this while money is running out. I'm glad I'm living with my parents after this shit hit the fan, less stuff to worry about, but this is not life.14 -
Best Andriod client for Reddit?

I quit smoking yesterday.
By a coincidence I had a pack of cigarettes named “Kresty” – the brand from russian prison.
Just gave it to Stephen Paul Taylor. There’s no reason to smoke again, just don’t want to loose this kind of story.

Dude on reddit was hearing weird faint noises from his phone.
You'll never guess what he found out!

It looks like reddit is about to expand by approximately raising $150 Million. https://bloomberg.com/news/...2

Just one or two days ago there was a guy asking for opinions on his UI (a reddit viewer app). I couldn't find him and wanted to ask him a question tho.
You probably use some class for fetching the data from reddit, hoe to you make it accessible within your app? Storing a static instance within the application class (like many do with the application context) and using that one?
Would be nice if you could answer ^^13 -

It's amusing seeing something new on r/ProgrammerHumor and a few hours later seeing the same thing posted to devRant. Almost like there's a bot with a 2 hour delay posting to devRant.1 -
I have tried to combine the concept of Instagram and Reddit in this app. Now you can browse Reddit just like Instagram.
Please install and tell me if you like the concept and what more modifications can be added
Thank you.

Once upon a time I used very frequently Instagram , Facebook etc. and then I started coding and connect with communities like Stack overflow, devRant, Reddit, Twitter then now My Instagram account deleted and Facebook was uninstalled on my phone. Yeaaaah😥 Just programming effects..

So today I'm going to join Reddit
Tell me subreddits where I can learn more and at the same time it doesn't go too much above my head
Interests in which I'd like to invest time:
Machine learning
Statistics
Distributed systems
Or general computer science research
Suggest me11 -
I really wanna get into making Reddit bots but man, OAauth2 is really turning my head into a pretzel :(

Browsing Reddit for weird porn back stories and you stumble upon the efficiency regarding loops
P.S. - the comments has more

Holy shit! The fuckery CEO of reddit did to himself is hilarious. He did no good by finally admitting the wrong he did.
To top it off, he himself called him the abuse which he was pissed off about.
Moral: Be moderate if you're gonna do something sketchy like that, rather than going all the way, and then to apologise about it in the end.2 -
TIL trogus registered the subreddit devRant, but it has no posts and is locked. Anyone know what the story here is?2

Any good alternatives to Twitter? I already know about Gab and Mastodon. What else is there?
By "Twitter Alternative", I mean sites with brief posts, fast member activity, easy to follow users, simple enough to rank in followers, and decent rules.
Note: Tumblr, Reddit, any website builder ever, and any other too well-known social network is not a Twitter alternative.6 -
I realized trying to have a well-argumented discussion on the internet - reddit especially - is like trying to talk with someone in a club. There's a lot of noise, everyone's drunk and you're yelling at each other without understanding a word.

/r/programming
I've been on reddit for about 7+ years and that subreddit has taught me sooo much! Just the amount of different languages, excellent books to read (via stackoverflow) whose who in the programming world (Martin Fowler and Robert 'Uncle Bob' Martin from the Agile Manifesto, Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie, of the C programming language, Richard Stallman of GNU (although /g/ set him in stone for me) , Linus Torvalds of Linux, the Gang of Four, John Carmack of id Software, Alan Kay, Rob Pike of Unix and Plan 9, Michael Abrash who knows Assembly like no other, Donald Knuth, etc) really gave me a nice basic knowledge to work with during my studies. There's still so much to learn and discover and I can't wait until what's next! 😁1 -

Hmm, just noticed lifelog recognises devrant as communication. Found that intresting for some reason. Also dr is the only "communication" app i use for extended period along with sync for reddit.
Also, its 7.50 in morning, not evening. I am not that lazy.

Not exactly a "programming" rant but...
Was going to try setting up oculus for the first time. I followed the instructions from the main site but somehow it doesn't work. Had no one to ask. The only thing I can do was to seek help from the community.
Most of the community was on reddit.
Best part is, reddit turns out to be blocked in my country.
p.s. I know VPNs can be used, but how if someone that doesn't know about VPNs and stuff can access it? Isn't it kind of unfair to them?7 -
I think I can safely unsubscribe from the /r/ProgrammerHumor subreddit. All the good ones get reposted here anyway :)

devRant let me post in every 2 hours. And I can reply as many time as I want.. but reddit wants me to wait for 10 mins for each reply

If I spent as much time writing code as I did browsing Reddit I would actually be good at it by now1

The fun times, watching the little weenie down voting the guy who thinks vanilla js is better than jQuery. Here I thought devs were meant to be more intelligent, yet somehow a 30kb wrapper for js is better than js itself...

Is there anything wrong with reddit new UI?
I've posted a link there. It shows it is 31% time upvoted. But the total votes are 0. Moreover, when I tried to upvote the link something weird happened.

Idea, a devrant type website that can be split into different work groups, animation, programming, composing, ect. and then subgroups for more specific jobs, like Reddit and DevRant fused together.7

Friday night : oh look at all these frameworks/package/tricks I heard about this week, time to test them !

Why do I get downvoted on Reddit when I post a link to my new blog post without any constructive feedback? It's even harder than StackOverflow.6

I love searching for things like "which is the best online learning site" on the Internet and seeing strongly opinionated answers. Like, I don't need your political correctness telling me that it depends! I just need your opinion based on your personal experience! This is why I love Reddit and other discussion sites.

i thought getting to use reddit/devrant more will cure my Facebook addiction.
but now i am addicted to checking reddit/devrant all the time. -

I feel like we need an agreed upon expression or marker to signify sarcasm. (Since the internet is still severely lacking in the ability to textually communicate tone of voice.)
I know that several people have used the "/s" from reddit, but I assume that people have mixed feelings about adopting stuff from reddit for various reasons.
Should we keep going with the "/s" or do we want to come up with something else? (Maybe something computer-nerdier even?)
Should we bully dfox and trogus into adding a sarcasm-checkbox-feature to posts and comments?
Go ahead and share suggestions and ideas. :)1 -
