Manager: Write a function to get tomorrow's date.

Kids:

}

Legends:

int getTomorrowsDate() {
sleep(1000*60*60*24);
return getCurrentDate();

Interviewing a junior dev.
> Make this function return false.

Literally no words.........

Fucking Methods starting with "Get" and return is void.

void GetTheFuckOut()

I like my new USB enter key.

Broke the return key today.
Already feeling like the employee or the year.

Point of no return.

Logic Gem found at work today.

if (value != null) {
return value;
} else {
return null;
}

😂 😂😂😂😂😂

Be like John..

void walks into a cave
doesn't return..............

While reading through the Elasticsearch (Java search engine) source code a while ago I found this gem:

return i == -1? -1: i;

I think someone should stop drinking while coding.

Some other nice lines:

int i = 0;
return j + 1000 * i;

Are these guys high?

The worst Code I saw was

if (value != null ) {
return value;
} else {
return null;
}

I was suppose to review this code.

if (null != value) {
return value;
} else {
return null;
}

public boolean even( int num ) {
if ( num < 0 )
num = -1 * num;
while ( num > 1 )
num = num - 2;
if ( num == 0 )
return true;
else
return false;
}

Interviews be like..

If(foo ==exactlyTheValueThatBreaksCodeForNoReason) { return }

When you see a someone write this
if(condition){
return true;
} else {
return false;
}

function isTrueOrFalse(s) {
if (s == true) return true
If (s == false) return false
}

If (condition)
return true
else
return false
😂😂😂

When you return to a personal projet you put aside more than 3 weeks ago

// Return result
return result;

Return (farm) ; :)))

/**

int getRandomNumber() {

return 6;

// Guaranteed to be random. I used a dice.
}

Work.overtimePay = (hours, normalRate) => {
// return hours * (rate * 2)
return "you guys are brilliant!"
}

function question(){
if(2b || !2b)

return(question());

I'm guessing the last person didn't have time to validate..

GettingMarried is a void because there is no return. :p

"What technologies do you know?"
"I can write pretty URLs that return JSON"
"You mean REST?"
"No, I mean pretty URLs that return JSON"

A bold assumption indeed

Seen in code:

public String getX(){
if (x != null){
return x;
}
else return null;
}

... I'm not gonna like looking at the rest of this, am I?

I guess I have reached the point of no return

#include <iostream>

int main(){
std::cout<<"hello there i'm new here\n";
return 0;
}

-Can I get a ticket please?
-Return?
-Naah.

Well fuck, I hope it returns an unsigned short. Why can't you just return a color type?

function getTrue() {
return true;
}

Wut? You serious?

Junior dev complained about my request to remove unnecessary comments because they're too obvious. "They may be obvious to you, but not to others" he said.

The codes and the comments:
// Sort the array
arr.Sort()

// Return the first element of the array
return arr[0]

return soup(i-1)+soup(i-2);

Refactoring legacy code when...

if _out == True:
r = True
elif _out == False:
r = False

return r

Return type is important in some languages

This is what I call a quick fix.

If (searchTerm == "coronavirus") {
return null;
}

React-Redux's connect() function inspired me to create the coolest way to add numbers in JS:

<script>
function add(num) {
return function(otherNum) {
return num + otherNum
};
};

console.log( add(2)(3) ); // Outputs 5
</script>

I didn't know you could do that. Just found it out!

Samsung's sending a “Note 7 Return Kit” with a Thermally-Insulated Box and Safety Gloves!!
2 mins silence to all those who purchased the note 7 😐

Classmate: "why doesn't it work?"
The code:

if (false) {
return even;
} else {
return odd;
}

C is not that hard:

void (* (* f[ ]) () ) () declares f to be array of unspecified size, of pointers to functions, which return pointers to functions which return void.

By the way, I am uncomfortable with the fact that I am comfortable with this statement.

Purchase $900 laptop, it's not powerful enough so I return it and get $1,100 laptop, still not powerful enough, return it and get $1,600 laptop. Realize I have a gaming PC and don't need the laptop this powerful and I return it and repurchase the first laptop I bought with a $100 discount because it's now an opened-box, but I know for a fact that it was the one that I got in the first place and opened.

Thanks Best Buy.

People : Hey, cool wallpaper. Where did you get it from?
Me :

Looking into a helper class written by someone who was clearly not a master of their craft. The class deals with some string IDs...

public getIDPosition1(String id){
return id.substring(0,1);
}

So far so useless. But it gets better. What is declared immediately below the above method?

public getIDPosition2(String id){
return id.substring(1,2);
}

And below that? You guessed it:

public getIDPosition3(String id){
return id.substring(2,3);
}

This continues to position 10.... -.-

#include<iostream>

Today, the debugger crashed while debugging the code.
I have reached the point of no return. :/

Developers who like to "emphasize" conditions.

Going through code left by a senior developer who quit.. Dated 2015..

public static T IfThenElse<T>(bool isTrue, T ifYes, T ifNo)
{
if(isTrue) { return ifNo ; }
else if(!isTrue) { return ifNo ;}
Debugger.Break();
throw new Exception("") ;
}
.....
There was a unit test for it well
....
............. Wow, just wow

Me, when read old code:
if z == true
return true
else
return false
Yeah, why not stupid fucker.

"How does return work? Why should a value come back?"

Developers who writes something similar

if (count >= 0) { return true; }

else { return false; }

deserves a special room in hell.

public String getDbPasswd(){
try{
String dbPasswd = SomeInhouseEncryptionLib.getPasswd("/hard/coded/path/to/key");
return dbPasswd;
} catch(Exception e){
LOGGER.log(Level.SEVERE,e)
return "the-actual-password";
}
return null;
}

And this is now in production
FML

Just saw this in the code I'm reviewing:

function encryptOTP(otp){
var enc = MD5(otp);
return enc;
}

When I return to development of my code that wasn’t commented

Last week I tried to return to Sublime but I feel very comfortable in VSCode

if ($id != $product->getId()) {
return false;
}
return false;

What's the point?

I have previously seen this in a production code base. The same code base included nested if statements (20+ conditions)...

If (condition == false) {
return false;
} else if (condition == true) {
return true;
}

condition == true

is for boys,

public static boolean isTrue(boolean condition) {
try {
return new Boolean(condition).equals(Boolean.parseBoolean(new String(Boolean.toString((boolean) Boolean.class.getField(String.valueOf(true != false).toUpperCase()).get(null)).toString().toCharArray())));
} catch(Throwable t) {
return condition;
}
}

is for men.

If (index == 3) {
return true;
}
else {
return true;
}

Apparently the number 3 is magical or aomething.

Legacy line of the day:
return "ok";

Like, whyyyy?!!?!

When I define a function which is supposed to return something (for example int), I always write 'return 0;' after I wrote the signature of it to avoid the red error-marker. It drives me crazy... After I finished coding I replace the 'return 0;' with what I actually wanted to return.

The love of mu life is like a void method...

...doesnt return anything. :(

Visual Studio : Not all code paths return a value

Me : That method is only with a single line, and it's a return with the value. Don't fucking kidding me.

This guy who earns 20% more than me wrote a method to check which string of 2 is lexicographically smaller.

public boolean isSmaller(String s1, String s2) {
String [] temp = new String[2];
temp[0] = s1;
temp[1] = s2;
Collections.sort(temp);
if (temp[0].equalsIgnoreCase(s1)) {
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
}

At what point is it acceptable to return support requests with Read the ****ing Manual?

Typing "return" is cursed ... always.

retunr ... retnur ... DAMN!

HTTP return codes....

print('I love U world !!')

I'm back !! After being fired from my job (read my prev rants) , after a week they called me and told me that I can return! (If only I promise that I'll control my curiosity and i'll never make the same mistake ever again)
It is just like a dream !!

I'm really glad that I listened to your advice and didn't do anything stupid :)

Refactoring nested ifs.
I'm not a pro but I despise working with nested ifs. It's hard to debug and read.

If you cant chunk the if using method, i think you can use ifs like this:
If(){return}
If() {return}

Not like this:
If() {
If() {
If() {
}
}
}
😠😠😤🙅😢

// Return data

Found this in our code recently, had to check who pushed it to git. Apparently i'm an excessive commenter 😫

Let's return to MySpace tbh

As someone in charge of reviewing this code, how would you react to this function that contains, what could be, the longest ever readable return statement.

IF (no error ) {
Food is delicious;
Weather is nice;
Friends are kind;
Home is comfortable;
Computer is fast;
Return ( continue life );
Else {
Food is disagreeable to the taste;
Weather is stormy;
Friends are zombie;
Home is hell;
Computer is slow;
Return (stop life);
}
}

Found this gem yesterday...

code review:

return true;
else return false;

If (blablabla) {
return Yes;
}
else {
return No;
}
with
return blablabla;
And it not passed code review because "We should have readable code"

if I would explain my sex life in code, it would be:

function wank () {
//I can't.
return null;
}

Not gonna return home !
I've got all I need ! (The coffee maker is behind)

People who write functions which return NULL should be moved to /dev/null.

If you are programming in C++ please always return a type from a function as the function prototype return type.

I had to debug some old code that failed to return a boolean on one of its flow paths. It would work on linux in release and debug, would work on windows in debug, and fail on windows in release.

The failure was NOT straightforward at ALL. It would return exit code 3. Then if I added a debug print to the function it would segfault.

Why the hell would popping something extra off the return/call stack not crash more readily? Wth is the point of debug compile if it won't catch shit like this?

Choosing java as my interview language over python. Still suspicious. 😓😓

Last year in my first lesson of informatics:

Me: “What does return do?”
My teacher: “If you start your program, Windows will pause and run your program. If your program is coming to the end and hits the return statement, your program will stop and Windows will run again.”

wtf

(I already knew the right answer but I wanted to ask him this question.)

return (this.isBad) ? true: false;

Few days ago I wrote function that finds occurrence of value in array:

function findOccurrence(value, array) {
for (var i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
if (value === array[I]) return true;
}
return false;
}

But there's already [].includes() function in JavaScript.

"/path/to/my/file.swift:143:34: error: cannot convert return expression of type 'String.SubSequence' (aka 'Substring') to return type 'String'"

Ah yes, I love it when Substring isn't String

Wish I knew about this lovely community a few years ago, when a dev in my team asked for help because they couldn't understand why their function was only returning one string... Only you guys would understand my pain when I saw this...

string SomeShitStringMethod()
{
<do stuff>
return string1;

<do stuff>
return string2;

<do stuff>
return string3;
}

Google search results always return 2.7 version of documentation. Load it, hit the drop down, select 3.6...

return false;

This customer's dev is going to be the end of me. I had to explain to him why it doesn't make any sense to return a value after throwing an exception.

In a function that was supposed to insert a record amd return its id, in the error handling code:

catch(Exception ex) {
//logs the exception
throw ex;
return - 999; //this code will NEVER be reached, and why the f.... - 999?
}
The customer wants us to develop the project together, but he won't listen and always write whatever he wants. Some might be differences in taste. Like me preferring
if(condition) {
return a;
}
return b;

And him preferring :

Foo result = null;
if(condition) {
result = a;
} else {
result = b;
}
return result;

Ok, that I can accept. But things like the one I'm ranting about... I wont.

I'm starting to wonder what was he doing during his "9 years of coding experience"

Me: I feel like JavaScript has buyer's remorse because all day you return, return, return things.
John: That's how you know it's functioning.

when code comments be like

# loop over the array
for i in 1...10
# divide by 2
x = i / 2
# return the result
return x

Guys, be friendly to IT support. They will do much more for you in return.

I can't use Javascript object destrucuring in react components because a colleague doesn't like / understand it for some reason.

So instead of:

If have to use
(props) => {
return (
<div>{props.something}</div>
)
}

Its no big issue, but I hate it.

def signin
if should_not_sign_user_in?(stuff)
return redirect_to :nope
end
# signin logic
end

The guard says I shouldn’t sign the user in. It logs the details of why. I read the logs; they’re all correct. It logs the return value, which is false, and the user gets signed in anyway.

Wat.

There’s a return and a redirect there!

This is only happening on the QA server, too, so something fishy is going on.

In what fucking programming language a constructor can return a nullable value???

Swift of course. :|

Fuck apple :-)

It's truly incredible, what people can create:

let categoriesText = '';
categories.forEach((item, i) => {
if (i !== 0) {
categoriesText =
categoriesText + `, ${item.categoryName}`;
} else {
categoriesText =
categoriesText + `${item.categoryName}`;
}
});
return categoriesText

How about you STFU!!!

return categories.map((category) => category.categoryName).join(', ');

Even if I don't like a rant that much - if it's getting a lot of ++ and is close to 175 (maybe like 150) I always give it another one to give it that little nudge. I'm just that kind of a guy.

Applying Occam's razor and I might be wrong..

Hiring a candidate and job hunt, both are fucking exhaustive process.

We, as a human race, have aimed for Moon and Mars but are unable to solve the problem at hand which can save millions of hours each year reflecting in immediate cost savings.

Here's my (idealistic) solution:

A product to connect job seekers and recruiters eliminating all the shitty complexities.

LinkedIn solved it, but then hired some PMs who started chasing metrics and bloated the fuck out of the product.

Here are some features of the product I am envisioning:

1. Job seeker signs up and builds their entire profile.

2. Ability to add/remove different sections (limited choices like certifications, projects, etc.), no custom shit allowed because each will have their own shit.

3. By default accept GDPR, Gender Identity, US equality laws, Vetran, yada yada..

4. No resume needed. Profile serves as resume. Eliminate the need to build a resume in word or resume builders.

5. Easy updates and no external resume, saves the job seeker time and gives a standard structure to recruiters to scan through eliminating cognitive load.

6. Recruiters can post their jobs and have similar sections (limited categories again).

7. Add GDPR, Vetran, etc. check boxes need basis.

8. No social shit. Recruiters can see profiles of job seekers and job seekers can see jobs. Period.

9. Employee working in Google? Awesome. Will not show Google recruiters thier profile and employee such job posts.

10. No need to apply or hunt heads. System will automatch and recommend because we are fucking in AI generation and how hard it is to match keywords!!

11. Saves job seekers and recruiters a fuck ton of time hunting the best fit.

12. This system gets you the best job that fits your profile.

Yes, there are flaws in this idea.

Yes, not all use cases are covered.

Yes, shit can be improved and this is hypothetical.

But hey! Surely doable with high impact than going on Moon or Mars right now.

Start-up world has lost its way.

successful = false;
return successful;

I've wasted 5 hours
That's why:

val x: Any = 0L
if (x != 0) {
return
}

def apparentlyThisIsAGoodName():

return not

programmers agreement
if(employee[work] == satisfied)
return salary++;
else
return fired;

location /dev/null {
if ($request_method = POST ) {
return 200;
}
if ($request_method = GET ) {
return 204;
}
}

hey devs, was gone for 3 years from here, I'm back now 👋

Life(naive_person) {
While(lesson not learnt) {
Change characters;
Repeat story;
}
Return dead_person;
}

```
public someMethod(index: string): Promise<void> {
return Promise.resolve(someAsyncFunction().then(() => {
return;
})
.catch((error) => {
this.logger.error(error);
throw error;
});
```

Somebdoy doesn't know their async / await syntax but they wanted aboard the promise-hype train. There is an entire class in that style.
