It has to be the community. Just look at devRant - an open community where - unlike on the rest of the internet - people are friendly and warm. Then there's the concept of open source and GitHub, where people post large and complex projects for free and even the smallest of developers can create issues and pull requests (shouldn't they be called push requests though?) - no other profession will help others out in over 15 million different ways.5

Hi lil puppies what's your problem?
*proxy vomits*
Have you eaten something wrong....
*proxy happily eats requests and answers correctly*
Hm... Seems like you are...
*proxy vomits dozen of requests at once*
... Not okay.
Ok.... What did u you get fed you lil hellspawn.
TLS handshake error.
Thousands. Of. TLS. Handshake. Errors.
*checking autonomous system information*
Yeah... Requests come from same IP or AS. Someone is actively bombing TLS requests on the TLS terminator.
Wrong / outdated TLS requests.
Let's block the IP addresses....
*Pats HAProxy on the head*
*Gets more vomit as a thank you no sir*
I've now added a list of roughly 320 IP adresses in 4 h to an actively running HAProxy in INet as some Chinese fuckers seemingly find it funny to DDOS with TLS 1.0... or Invalid HTTP Requests... Or Upgrade Headers...

Something that really irritates me is when someone requests a read receipt for an email. My team of 4 including my team leader has several apps that we own with several different product owners. Sometimes one of the product owners or someone who works for them sends an email and requests a read receipt. I feel like that is very cocky, like they are trying to exert control over me or something deeper. Maybe it's just me.5

Had a five hour long debate with one of our Senior Developers today about pull request etiquette.
His view was reviewers should always email or call him before adding comments to any of his requests and they should never block them as he should be allowed to code in "his own style" and should be able to approve his own pull requests.
I explained that we have code standards and an agreed PR workflow be needs to comply with.
He then started talking about meteors and plane crashes. Literally no helping some people.18 -

Currently working on my first real REST api and I've arrived at the authentication part.
I'm not sure how to do this one, the client will have to login using username/password but then, what's the most conventional way of authentication logged in users through a REST api? (no oauth (yet))
This should be usable for anything like ajax requests to calls from the backend to curl requests.
Looking forward to ideas!30 -

1st request in.
I wonder what the file is looking like.
Only showing 1 request.

One of the best feelings is when you're reviewing PRs, leave a comment of an issue you're seeing & another developer supports & agrees your comment, so the original creator of the PR doesn't think you're making things up.

Anyone else gets PTSD from estimating time expenses on projects you know nothing about, no basic design, specification, or anything besides “this page of the app is called the request handler, it handles requests by other users.” Oh really? Like what kind of requests? What can they request? Who can approve those requests? Etc... Is this normal, or am I just at an unprofessional company with fully incompetent PMs?12

Well shit.
Recently refactored some backend code that makes some https requests.
I realized I was repeating myself a lot with the request options so I decided to make a function to generate the options with defaults.
Works great, shortened my requests to almost nothing.
The problem is it wasn't working great.
It took me about an hour to finally figure out that the requests were failing because I forgot to return the options object after I created it.
Sending the request with null options just makes it act as if the options are there, but incorrect, so I was totally lost.

Client: We are completely unable to plan a construction project successfully. We want you to use AI to do all of our project planning for us. Our requirements are that instead of needing to spend any money or time planning we just want to press a button and have a computer instantly put together all of our project plans for us. The program also needs to identify optimizations on it’s own and change all related plans enterprise-wide. All copies of the plans should be able to be kept up to date at all times so we’re never looking at an old plan again. We also want the ability to print.

"Our side is certified, yours is not" ... they yelled from their ivory tower.
Then why does your side send unreasonable responses after a few dozen identical requests and doesn't respond at all shortly after?

So last Tuesday, I started two pull requests, with one branch that should be in production in few time, and warned the validators that they can check the code and validate or add comments. I was in weekend in the Tuesday evening, going to Paris in the weekend.

When it comes to nervewrecking situations, what I've encountered so far is a pull request for which the 2 reviewers had opposite opinions.
Something like this:

reviewer 1: "update using approach A"
* updates code *
reviewer 2: "this is wrong, change to approach B"
* updates code again *
reviewer 1: "this isn't what i asked for, i'm rejecting your PR"
Oh, also, each of them had their own set of coding standards.

Huge mistake on a customer billing procedure.
That procedure was generating a file for automatic billing requests from our customer bank to his customers banks.
That procedure was shifting the bank coordinates by one byte right making all payment requests invalid and rejected.
That month the customer got nothing from invoices (more or less 80k euros).
Side note; only one payment was accepted because the guy entering the invoice on the system shifted the bank coordinates by mistake, so the procedure fixed it.

I wish people took concurrency more seriously
I get the feeling that often people start writing a project while giving 0 f*cks about thread safety, thinking that it is somehow handled "automatically" by the framework

I really do love programming, but I really do hate implementing features that will make the database and code way more messy and complex. Which would be fine, if I wouldn't be quite sure the feature is utter bullshit and the user just can't really frame what they need.
And yes, I've asked my boss if he's sure if that's what they want and if not the other feature I implemented will fit those needs too. Yes, he is sure that they're sure they need exactly said requested feature.4 -

Is it possible to send example.com/ requests to a Laravel app and send all other requests to an WordPress app?17 -
Two weeks sick and several meetings where canceled, bugs haven't been touched the slightest bit and requests from customers have been deferred until I'm back.
That's what I call a low bus factor. -
Today I got a change request that told me I needed to create a report showing orders broken down by their order types as percentages.
Now the order types part involve SQL queries that translate business rules into multiple table joins and it's quite nasty (200 + lines or so).
Naturally the change request doesn't mention any of these business rules and how to tell that orders are of a specific type... but alas!
It teaches me how to calculate a percentage :)
... like "10 / 100 * 100 = 10%"
I don't know whether to laugh or feel insulted.2 -
When I show a school mate how to send http requests using the requests library, instead of urllib in python
-
Going through another department's API documentation and wrapper library where it has documented samples on how to use it. One of the samples specifically shows how to disable HTTPs requests for when retrieving customer info but it also states in the documentation to specifically NOT USE this disable function.
When it comes to customer info, I don't know why the fuck you would allow an override option to do everything over unsecure requests, and even document about it! -
BLOODY FIREFOX DEVELOPER TOOLS
I was troubleshooting an app (inside container) hitting an endpoint. For debugging purposes I tried hitting the endpoint from my machine, but always got a 404.
So in the firefox developer tools under the network section you see all of the requests happening. Every request, application/json or url-encoded, lists its parameters inside the tab 'parameters' tab. I thought that means those parameters were i side the request body.
Turns out I should have sent the parameters as url encoded instead of POSTing JSON as the request body. This took me way too long.
Why not display the request url like http://url?key=value ... Firefox? Eh?7 -
don't remember what the fuck i did and why i did it rereading a ticket and the pull requests from 6 months ago

My team is split on reviewing pull requests individually vs as a group.
Personally, I don't like being interrupted to come look at a projector for 20 minutes only to go back to work for an hour, and then get pulled into yet another review. Am I the only one that thinks this is incredibly inefficient?
I prefer to go over pull requests on my own time, asking questions/making comments as needed.2 -

Does anyone else get frustrated when your co-worker goes behind you and changes the name of a particular variable? Changing the word "repo" to "repository" does not clarify a fucking thing! You're not going to confuse it with something else. I've never once seen the word and thought "Damn, that guy meant reposition and I just fucked everything up." It would be one thing if our lead Dev told me to not use the word, but he could not care less.
Am I in the wrong?1 -
How do you deal with bad managers?
I'll give you an example. One of my managers requests a feature and then a week later claims it isn't working correctly, and asks me to change it again.
Another example, we were in a meeting and she requests a feature, then 5 seconds later requests something entirely different. It's like she didn't even remember what she requested 5 seconds ago. Everyone in the meeting saw it, but nobody said anything about it.
I'm on my way out of this company, but I'm just curious how other coders deal with it. I've watched this woman completely destroy 2 systems I've coded now.4 -
What are webhooks anyway? From what I read, they are just a fancy way of talking about APIs and HTTP requests.6

Draft Pull Requests : With draft pull requests, you can clearly tag when you’re coding a work in progress. Next to the “Create pull request” button. Toggle the dropdown arrow whenever you want to create a draft instead.1

Finally the site is live. Today all stress was gone again. Still a pity that i have 7 pull requests out of 10.

This question is a bit dumb
Why do browsers block asynchronous requests when you use local files from your computer3 -
New guy likes to both approve and merge other people's pull requests have he approves them. Please don't merge other people's pull/merge requests. Other team members may have comments too! The person who created it should merge it.1

I committed a pr which got accepted to a big open source project… and that’s good! I should feel better about my skills!
(Imagine the following as the Simpsons meme where they go: and that’s good, and that’s bad)
But it was just documentation… and that’s bad… maybe I should not feel better about my skills…
But it may save two or plus hours to the next dev who doesn’t understand what’s going wrong! And that’s good! So I should feel better about my skills cause I spent time debugging and going into details and understanding what was happening just to produce a better documentation!
But I have lack of certain vitamins and a bit of depression.
“And… is that good?”
“No, it’s bad, you should feel ashamed of your skills and about the way you answered someone twenty years ago!”3 -

That moment you test your api and the enter key is stuck, so postman sends a lot of requests to the server and your ip gets blacklisted...

I made it as dev when the repository owner increases stale time for pull requests to wait just a bit longer for my change

Why does it feel like they don't teach anything useful in university every time I interact with an intern. Barebones understanding of how HTT works, but not quite enough to work on a rest API on their own and an absolute lack of inspecting inputs/outputs. Especially nice today when the intern mixes browser requests and app requests to make it seem like he properly configured the test endpoint correctly and leaving me to guess wtf is going on in the logs4

So after 8 months of stopping the development of a web app, the client decided to start pushing it for usage.
8 months ago I was almost begging him to do some testing, so I could gather some feedback and fix any issues. That, of course, never happened.
Yesterday just before leaving work I received a meeting invitation and an e-mail. Apparently the app wasn't at the "expected level given its development time". I also got another e-mail with change requests.
Someone will be getting some virtual middle fingers during the meeting... -
Well this morning has been fun with Github's pull requests and issues not working.

When your weekend starts with: ahh just gonna chill and test my apps background-fetch mode and realizing it dont work with async requests and silent push-notifications, spending the weekend adding syncronious requests for silent push. Why does apple hate developers??

I have been pondering for the last couple of days on how to validate whether a referring http request is actually coming from the referrer it claims to come from. Any ideas on this?3 -
I've a new request from a client wanting a drop shipping system with WordPress and WooCommerce. He also wants a merchandise management system.
I never did this and am unsure how to build it, what fuck to expect or even what to charge.
Please send help! 🥺😱😰6 -
I was once trying to create a video player since the format was not supported by the browsers today, so i started to download the video files from the server. Only to discover a bug in my code was trying to download a video file from the server. This was way to much for the server to handle and caused it to crash. People where running in the building to get the stream back up, i sat there silently and killing my browsers process. Since then i always test my request from local if they are okay before downloading a file from a server

Explain to me why CORS isn't the dumbest thing I've ever heard of?
I can make requests from outside the browser but not from within? Hah?6 -
Except COVID-19, Airport security is also scanning preflight requests and incoming traffic for CORS with its dated test kit (found this unused gem in an old PHP codebase):

Just want to ask a question here to avoid the downvote on stackoverflow.
Does apache + mpm_event + PHP-FPM capable of handling 500 simultanous requests, on a server with 4CPU cores and 16Gb of RAM? -

Whenever I create a new backend and a new slack app for that particular backend.
Most painful thing is to authenticate slack requests.
I know HOW to do it, but I still HAVE to do it.
So, created a pip package for authenticating slack app requests.
Feel free to check it out and leave any feedbacks.

Stuck in debugging a python script (using 'requests' library to achieve 'curl' type function) for the last 2 hours
Worked fine yesterday in Python REPL.. Throws exception when put in a long exisitng .py script.. Works fine again when put in Python REPL
Found out that when in REPL, I am careful to import 'requests' library every time but ignored when typing in .py script
(Feeling stupid)
Lesson learned: Don't use "generic exceptions"!! They never let you know what the real problem is.1 -
I finally got around to working on my new application (after a friendly guy did pull requests)
I feel like I made decent progress.
yay!
I will certainly add more tomorrow :) -
Does one of you guys know a php package which provides a thin wrapper around the curl functions?
Especially the functions for multiple parallel requests in different threads.
The only implementation I know about is kriswallsmith/buzzbrowser -
my day's been fucked up😭😭😭.
I'm making an api with Django, and i can't seem to make post requests when DEBUG=True5 -
Legend has it that auto-complete pull requests only ever actually autocomplete while you're watching them1

Appraisals are pretty insightful times. I wanted to check how much work I do as compared to others in the team. So, I tried to pull up number of pull requests created by me and others in the team. And to my surprise, I create 4x(I created about 850 pull requests) more pull requests than the next contributor(200 pull requests). I knew in general I was doing more work and much faster, but this is just too much.
I know number of pull requests is not an indicator for the amount of work done by anybody, but I had this feeling as well that I was doing more than others. I often see other members of the team not putting that much effort, and rather have a relaxed approach to getting work done. They pick one ticket and take the whole week to complete it slowly. While I hustle to get as much done as possible.
As far as the appraisals go, I am kind of laid back in terms of contributing towards overall organization which is now getting more weighted for my appraisal. So, despite me doing quite a lot of work, I am getting the appraisal at par with others in the team.
So, its kind of feels a little bit uncomfortable.3 -
Now I get why people don't use Windows while developing Ruby... Always having an error with OpenSSL that doesn't let me do https requests...
