Just couldn't resist sharing this.

Couldn't resist sharing this one

TL;DR: Face reveal in comments.

My parents have taught me, that if I do a good deed, I should forget it and not announce it to anybody.

However, I would still like to share it with you all.

I always wanted to donate something. Blood was not an option due to low vitamins and minerals.

I could donate money, but that doesn't bring satisfaction.

So, I decided to donate something which money cannot buy and requires my time and efforts.

I started growing my hair. I grew them for a year and a half.

It was an amazing experience. Some complimented my looks while others made fun of it. It did not matter as they did not know the reason behind it.

I was cool with it, because fuck society.

Last Saturday it was my birthday day. Never have I celebrated my birthday until this year. I decided to shave my head and surprise everyone. Again some loved my new looks while others are making fun of it.

It still doesn't matter, because I am donating my hair to a cancer patient so that they can maintain a positive body image.

I am at loss of to express my happiness I derived from it. I cannot tell how satisfied I am by this act. 😊

Let's make this world a better place. One deed at a time.

Introducing new Notif filters! Now on mobile, all your notifications are broken up into category tabs and you can clear each category separately. No more digging for mentions!

Also we just released a new image preview for when a rant is shared on FB, Twitter, etc. which includes the ranter's avatar image. You can see it by sharing a rant on social media, or check out an example here: devrant.com/rants/1036286/image.png (if you change the rant ID, you can see others)

Finally sharing my desk! The team is allowed to work in a dark room, the proper environment for developers.

Who says a dev doesn't go outside? I barely stay somewhere indoor more than a couple of hours.
Now that everyone is sharing their setups:

Couldn't resist sharing this.

I rarely post such things, but couldn't resist sharing this.

Le me having a chit chat with a student after sharing about programming in my former high school..

Student: "I learnt Java the other day, and I don't really like it"

Me: "Why?"

Student: "Because we can import existing packages on the community to do almost anything"

Me: "And? How is that bad for you?"

Student: "It's not very challenging, isn't it? I want to build everything in my program with my own code!"

Me: [silence]

Me: "Listen here, you little shit..."

Just found this and thought of sharing it with community who make it happen.

I love ow technology evolved in last few decades.

What are your thoughts?

Couldn't resist sharing 😂😂

Everyone sharing pictures of their workspace so here’s mine.

Since everyone is sharing there Linux desktop

Can't stop sharing dis

!dev

Knocked over a beer bottle with my hand and caught it mid-flight.

Felt like a fucking ninja.

No clue why I'm sharing this but goddamn that was good.

So everyone is sharing their work again, so here is mine.
And no 6 monitors, 1 pc isn't overkill.

Well...

Maybe...

But just a little!

Usually, one is spotify, one iChrome, one development (center bottom), one execution of dev, one email&facebook split and one documentation.

Couldn't help my self from sharing

Just sharing the best error message I ever got. Sometimes the application is just as confused as you are...

Just sharing my experience of my spontaneous interview with Facebook. I'm not good at writing these but here you go :)

- I was working as an Android dev and didn't have much knowledge in algorithms nor competitive programming, never ever interviewed with big companies.
- a random day on LinkedIn, a recruiter from Facebook contacted me
- I ignored it for few week because I thought it's so out of my league, then somehow, out of blue, I had a thought of giving it a try, so I did
- passed first round
- start studying algorithms a little for phone interview in 3 weeks
- recklessly took the phone interview
- passed
- start studying intensively (while working fulltime) for the on-site interview in 2 months
- almost got the job, they gave me one more chance by a followed up interview
- messed up the last chance real bad
- failed!!!
- Initially I just wanted to give it a try, but the fact that I failed at very very last chance, frankly, bothers me a bit. Maybe I will interview with FB or big companies if I have chance later, but I know for sure that the studying had made me a much better dev. All the code I write now is much more efficient (I think), I can and not anymore afraid of reading complicated code.
- Overall, it does takes a lot of time (~4 months studying while working fulltime), but also benefits myself a lot though I didn't get the job, so basically, good experience, but better if I got the job 😁

Oops, wanted to write a few lines and it's a long post already.. I should stop here :D

Not mine, but worth sharing 😁

The easiest way to get into software development: Learn from someone with more experience.

The easiest way to master software development: teach those with less experience than you.

Knowledge sharing is the basis of our industry. I can't ask people to share enough

Client: Let me send you the files needed.
*client sends link to their own Dropbox folder page, not actually sending a shared link*
Me: Uuuhm, the link you've just send is only viewable by your account.
Client: Oh, hold....
Client a bit later: *sends actual Dropbox credentials over email in plain text*

Why.

Just installed Kubuntu on my netbook.

KDE Connect 💕

I can be lazy now and control my netbook from my phone 😊
Also notification sync, file sharing etc!

So, I saw you guys sharing your coding buddies, here's mine

(Banana for scale [old 9gag habit])

!rant: So I've noticed some devs sharing pictures of their workspace. Let me know what you think of mine!

I've put my blood, sweat and tears into this company in the past years. Worked overtime, evenings, weekends, night shifts to get shit done and helped out in sharing knowledge only to learn a new guy who's still learning has 200 bucks higher pay check than me.

I'm not even sure how to react to this.

I thought it would be pretty cool to start a pet-sharing post!
(My apologies if this has been done before, I just thought it would be cool to see the pets of the devRant community!)

Here are my two:

Thanks, I am happy to be sharing my payment details with your company.

ATTACHED TO THE LOGIN DETAILS YOU EMAILED ME!

Incompetent doesn't even start to describe this one:

1. Uses Google drive instead of an online repository for code sharing
2. Uses multiple files instead of version control
3. Preferred variable names like a, a1, b, temp
4. Didn't like "wasting" space. The result was unreadable unindented code
5. Would rather use deprecated HTML tags rather than proper CSS styling

He was more like the personification of bad coding practices

So, I saw this on Reddit, and I thought about sharing it here...

What do you think? It's somewhat accurate, or it can have some changes?

(The Chaotic Good made me chuckle 😂)

Hahaha...
Was watching a news blooper compilation on youtube and couldn't resist sharing this.

This lady was screen sharing during a meeting. At the GUI login for her Linux box, she accidentally typed in her password for the username. In front of 50 people, she showed everyone her password was "Tittays69" 😂

My family: Can you repair the printer ?

Me: No ...

My family: can't send my emails, fix it !

Me: No ...

My family: why this people can share my photos on Facebook ? Stop it now !

Me: Then stop sharing all your god damn life each time you eat, fart or go to the bathroom !!!! For fucks sake !

Also me: why have I started computer science ?

I am a developer for almost 12 years (I am 24 now, I started early), but all my life I've been a lone wolf. I didn't share code, I didn't had to do peer reviews. The only opportunity that I had to do this in a company, it was completely messed up experience and I ended up being the only developer over there, so there was no one to see or review what I was doing.

So I basically grew up my entire life working by myself with no supervision.

It made me a very possessive person about my code and besides knowing that I am a highly above average developer, I can't show it to others because I think they might not really like what they'll see.

The thing is, this is a very stupid conclusion. If they have something to tell me, it means that there's something to learn, to evolve. After months of struggle, last year I've finally open sourced a project -- which in the time was my greatest thing of all time, so imagine how hard was that for me.

The reception was pretty good and even one of Meteor's maintainers gave me a star. Since then, I've been slowly opening the source of some legacy projects that would usually go straight to the trash bin.

So that's the moral of the story people: Don't be shy of your work, make code reviews, learn with other people about your weaknesses -- you'll never know them by yourself.

Had devRant installed for a while now and finally have something worth sharing.

This happened in my last Python lab at uni:
Me: *Working away at this week's assignment*
Dude next to me: You know last week's assignment?
Me: Yes?
Dude: Did you test you solutions to the exercises?
Me: Yes
Dude: Oh, I didn't. Do you think I'll lose marks?
Me: Yes

I can only hope I'm not forced to work with this guy on group assignments...

(Made by a classmate but liked it so sharing it here)

The worst thing I’ve seen a dev do is create a social sharing platform that sells its user data to the highest bidder and then asks for forgiveness after the privacy horse is out of the barn.

Couldn't resist sharing this photograph I found on internet.

Another example of failed testing.

My team was sharing an API key to our company's microservice containing all our customer data.

I say "was" because one team member accidentally published the key online so the security team disabled our key and won't give us a new one.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry

Friend : What about a place where you can share images ?
Me : Instagram !
Friend : chatting ?
Me : whatsapp, messenger, etc
Friend : file sharing
Me : Dropbox
Friend : sharing videos ?
Me : youtube
Friend : mail with all above features
Me : google
Friend : I hate my life

Just a heads up since sometimes these things get missed on new devRant version releases: you can now download images attached to rants by tapping on the "share" icon on the top right of a rant and then selecting "save image". The image will be saved into the gallery on your device.

We've also improved Facebook and Twitter sharing.

Let us know if you have any questions!

Felt like sharing this, even if Windows updates are so overly talked about.

My next project is creating a genetic algorithm that can play with crypto currencies for me.

I shouldn't have told my family. They think i'm going to be sharing the money now 🙃

Random guy messages me on Facebook

"Hey, I saw you use XYZ provider. Would you mind sharing your username and password so that I can login to public wifi networks? Many thanks."

Wk103 got to be the best weekly rant, it’s like everybody sharing a good quote about programming, and it’s useful

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.

Code sharing is illegal

A senior developer come to interrupt me.

Senior developer: blah...blah....blah about this concept...... that concept... So, any new things you learn lately that you would like to share?

Me: I am learning back C++
Immediately he stop me and said, "Why did you learn C++? It is obsolete, no one use it anymore"

Me (in my head): But, you just said what I learn. It doesn't matter if its obsolete or not. Infact you are wrong, C++ is not obsolete anytime soon. I was about to share on webassembly.

Senior developer: So, would you like to join me in a short sharing session this afternoon.

Me: No thanks, I am really busy (just want to avoid at any cost)

He might hunt

TIL...

why is it called male and female connectors ....... hardware knowledge sharing session

People who ask a question on stackOverflow and comment a minute later with " it's cool I solved it " are the biggest ass holes in the whole world , come on... How about sharing so some1 else might find your post helpful ... 😡

“There’s too many Firefox quantum rants...”

Lemme let you in on a little secret:
It’s nothing new, get over it.

Apple released a new phone.
Windows updated.
Samsung or Google releases a phone.
Exam time.

Do any of you see a common theme? It’s the same people posting three metric fuck tons of posts about recent news. Wow, a tech person sharing tech news, imagine that. It’s just a phase, we all notice it. It’ll go away. Thanks. Have a nice day.

Colleague asked me to join devRant and I was like that is it something related to development.
But when he said NO its nice and sharing about your seniors and managers. I was like that oh I need to write so much then......
Coming with expereince in first startup as employee.
Post #1

not exactly devRant related but this cracked me up so hard, I couldn't help sharing

It's 2018 and folks are still stuck "collaborating" on documents by sharing them back and forth over email.

MS Word Doc created in Office 2016 will not open in Office 365.

THIS IS WHY GOOGLE IS WINNING!

!rant

Dear dfox and trogus,

Is it possible to arrange a secret santa kind of duck gift sharing campaign once a year? Not necessary need to be a xmas campaign. We can wait until you update the shopping cart process with the feature 😬

Each user can buy ducks for other users. You can contact the recipients for the address if you don't have yet and do the delivery.

Since everyone's sharing pics of their workspaces, here's a pic of mine.

You had one job! I can do better than this

!rant (maybe somewhat drunk)
I'm a moderate gamer, and I like online gaming (battlefront, rocket league, that kind of stuff). And I can say that from all online communities i've seen, devRant is by far the less toxic one, being actually extremely nice.
Most dev communities i've been part of are extremely competitive, but devRant is all about sharing and caring.
A big bravo to you all, and thanks!

@trogus @dfox
Can we have support for
```
snipets
```
Doesn't even need syntax highlight, just the <pre> behavior.
In support of my request, I know this isn't code sharing but we still quote code and commands alot.
It would be a nice differentiation.

*How to graduate in style*
(And prob get arested)
(Because i am graduating soon)

-Make a simple reverse_tcp payload with persistence and encode it with veil or do it yourself. Make sure it connects to your VPS.

- Give it to your classmates and teachers! Sharing is caring!

- make a wallpaper that says "Happy graduation class 404!" (Isn't our class number awesome?!)

- wait until graduation to... i think you know what i plan to do ;)

I hate sharing something that I made and that I think is super cool with my non-dev friends and then they're like "yeah so? doesn't look that hard."

😒😒

Hi guys!

I look forward to sharing all my daily frustrations with you :^)

Met this couple at the grocery store. After few minutes we were sharing mobile numbers. An hour later I was at their home. Next I remember switching on their laptop to install audio driver.

This is how people in the society treat me

Found something I just couldn't resist sharing....

Sharing to show off my cave... While hoping my boss never downloads devRant and learns my devRant handle.

since people sharing their rubber duck debuggers, this is mine

That satisfaction when @dfox upvotes one of your rants.

Just thought of sharing with you guys.

What do you think?

Everyone is sharing their desks.

So here is mine, through my GoPro camera

Making file sharing application completely in C#.

I wonder if I will ever finish.

there's a dev on my train and I can see everything.... in vscode, at least he has that, damn java devs.

What's the social code for interaction here?

This is the problem with big media, they overplay all the news and buzz words. Like wtf why is there a fucking robot. And you don't need an ai to stop people from sharing passwords

Sharing movies through git

I've been training a client for a few months now to not use Slack for sharing passwords and other secure materials.

I really thought I had made great progress. I even had him using a password manager. Then out of nowhere he sends the wildcard SSL key pair to me and a handful of other devs in a Slack thread.

At least we aren't storing important information like medical records. Oh wait, that's exactly what we're doing.

OH MY FUCKING GOD XD

My female coworker was in an phonecall with my boss and he was sharing his desktop.

He is not the smartest so he forgot about sharing his desktop after the phonecall.

We are watching since half an hour while he is answering his e-mails :D and he don't even notice XD

!rant && <3
Dudes! I've been enjoying your rants for a while now, lurking in shadows., I've been relating to your stories especially on domestics fligjts, during commutes or when I'm just fucking bored, even over Netflix. Please show me some love so I'm able to show my face as an avatar :)

I hired 2 fresh out of school junior devs to work with me on my old web app.
They were brilliant, knew a lot of things, and were motivated.
They started complaining about how the code was shit, the db was shit, there were no best practices, the technology was old, bug fixing was boring, no comments in code.

I felt bad, very bad during 3 years, because they were absolutely right. I tried to work with them through better coding practices, rewriting, documenting etc.

Now they both have left.
I'm alone maintaining and evolving the application.
And I start to come across the code THEY developed.

What a bunch of shit. SQL queries bringing down the server. Duplicate code, because they didn't want even read the old one. Useless comments.
Performance killing functions. Exceptions swallowed without mercy. I have to clean up they poop.

I feel somewhat better, though. The application is still growing and holding the ground after many years and generating at least 800K$ per year in revenues.

Maybe better, but sad. I really wanted to share the project with somebody else but I failed, and I'm left alone....

Is this the new trend I heard some of you talking about? Sharing recipes through code.

So recently I started swiping on Tinder again, after some years of staying away from it. Now that's all fine, right?

But there's another dating platform that I used long long ago, Zoosk. I didn't even know that I had an account on it anymore, and they've never reminded me of it either. But guess what got in my mailbox this morning.. 32 singles that you'll definitely like!

Now how does Zoosk know that I'm on dating sites again.. maybe Tinder? 🤔

You know what, Tinder wanketeers? Fuck you. Sharing my personal data like that. Shame on you!!!

Are people sharing ducks? 🐤

is it just me or daily stand ups feels like a bunch of virgins sharing thier first time feelings and details ...

Dev goals?

Make a new social network for sharing hentai/doujin content and brainstorming spicy memes.

Not entirely sure if should be said an IT company but yes I would mention SHAREit.

The well known file sharing software, I remember using it most of the times for file sharing between my Android devices, it previously was only meant for "File Sharing" but now they're just more into ads, video recommendations, news etc etc "useless stuffs".
I mean who the hell in this world would like to open a file sharing app for trending WhatsApp video recommendations? Getting notifications in a language unknown to me? Who has even asked you all for this.

I know ads gives you profit but atleast not the trending movies and all for a file sharing app.

It was good overall in the start but now not they're not working in a way they used to.

PS: image below is a SHAREit notification for someone doing black magic on a kid. See, stupid stuff! not even a news to be read just fake stuff. Atleast show some serious ads or else just rollback to your previous version.

Whoa, i didn't know our avatar is shown when we share rants on twitter. I wonder if it's the same sharing on other platforms.

Friend : \ (•◡•) / "Driver Pack Solution has every fucking device driver in the world!!"

Me : (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ Download, install, restart and fuck! Can't turn on file and printer sharing anymore!

Friend : ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Me : (⊙﹏⊙)

Everyone sharing pictures of their workspace so I thought I'd share mine too.

An Food sharing App with the simplest UI possible

I am building a live streaming app.

General public: why don't you use periscope

I am building a photo sharing app

General public: why don't you use Instagram

I am building a social network

General public: why don't you use Facebook

I am build a audio app

Genera public: why don't you use sound cloud

Developer: WHY DONT YOU ALL FUCK OFF I am building it anyway dickhead

So since everyone is sharing their setups and I just finished cleaning the desk, here it comes. The rice is still in progress since I switched to NixOS two days ago

Tech Dept set all company phones to the same iCloud account and didn't turn off iMessage..

Boss + HR + random works all just realised they'd been sharing messages.

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Just bought a nice domain and I want to create a file sharing plattform ( think pomf ).
Does anyone have know some easy tool for it?

Open source amazes me all the time.
My eyes water with the amazement of what people are willing to accomplish and then share! Sharing really is caring.

Been studying front end development on my spare time for the past 8 months and tomorrow I got a interview for a position at a company as a junior Dev.
Even if I don't get it, it tells me that I'm on the right direction.
One can change their life by putting in some work.

Not a rant, I know but I'm so happy I felt like sharing. Soon I'll hopefully have some rants to share ;)

What kind of music do you guys listen too when you're coding? I need recommendations!

I can't do anything with English lyrics (other languages are fine. As long as I don't understand the lyrics, it's not distracting), so I usually stick to instrumental like animals as leaders, polyphia, Chon, etc or German metal: Rammstein, oomph, wbtbwb, etc

Whatcha guys got?

Son: What's an SD card, OTG cable and sharing device?
Dad: We don't know son, we are iPhone users

Jumping on the Workstation sharing train,
here is my home setup
Happy coding guys 😃

1990 people - There will be flying cars in near future and internet will be a hub for information sharing.
2018- Pornhub Survey

Okay ..assuming that we're one of them: "the idiots" and we're gonna stop sharing things like that , there are like 2B+ monthly active users on Facebook .. don't worry .. we're just gonna do some simple math .
2B x $1000 = $2000B ...
wait .. what ? But ... nvm ..

Linux should be taught is school from the beginning. Its ideologies innately teaches and promotes "Sharing is caring".

It feels great helping people get started with mobile dev 😀 sharing my passion

Okay,so just trying my first rant.
Anyone heard about Internet of Things?
Mind getting in touch and sharing your views?😬

I can't wait until I hand in my resignation to become a pen tester, I'm interviewing next week! I'm done with development. Don't really have any message here, but felt like sharing it regardless.

Sharing code via usb stick and renaming project folders to "<Project Name> rev. 37".

Two weeks of my life! All of this is on a win10 host with docker for windows. This is Docker running openvpn, and docker running Firefox in another container sharing VPN access from first container and also opens an x11 window port for Firefox GUI. Then x11 window server on Windows host to receive GUI. So left is firefox clearnet running native, right is Firefox over vpn in all containers, simultaneously.

Felt like sharing :)

The best part of being dev is the community, its also the most unique one IMHO. I mean what other profession in the Whole Wide World has such great and ingrained culture of helping eachother and sharing knowledge ?

Alright.. it appears to be setup sharing time. Here is mine:

Modded Chromebook (r11)
Hp 27" monitor
Random keyboard and mouse
Desk

Just sharing... What do you think I should add to it?

just bought (rented) my first dedicated server, for flipping 10€/month. let's see how it goes! boy, am i excited for my new toy...

For my bachelor thesis 3 years ago I wrote a Go/Baduk AI system capable of sharing a problem between an unlimited number of programs to be worked on. 3 years later Google kicked ass using pretty much that method + machine learning. Which is my master's degree... Should have patented it!

Fucking tired of clients sharing projects as .zip on gdrive

Who knew sharing files across a home network could be so painful?
Thanks a lot windows!

I've just realised, I don't care if Facebook are sharing my data... I mean, what I get more ads for men with big penises and ripped abs? So what...

I just sent I put a funny photo of mine as my profile in whatsapp for a few seconds.

Few seconds later, some *innocent* person sends me the following message "hey, that's a funny image of yours lol. Just shared it on facebook"

***Facepalm***

! Not pissed off, just wondering why the heck people feel like sharing everything they fucking see on Facebook

Anybody up for a Skype hangout tomorrow (Sunday, 03rd of June)?

My time zone: +05:30 GMT.

Agenda:
- General introduction
- Sharing dev and life experiences
- Anything else you wish to have

If you could do a Ted Talk, what would idea would you be sharing?

Every day I am reminded that some people just refuse to be helped. Today I saw an article in a prominent Facebook WordPress group I belong to. The author was sharing tips on how to improve presentation skills at WordPress conferences. One tip was to ensure no spelling errors exist in your slides. But the article itself, and the author’s bio, had five spelling errors. I pointed that out in the comments. Aaaaaand now I’ve been kicked out of the group.

What the best database solution for web and smartphones dev?
Is mysql the good choice?
I’m an “old” dev with old usage, php-mysql-JavaScript.
Is it a 2018 solution or am i a dinosaur?
All data will be stored on server side. Web and smartphone app as client.
Thanks for your experience sharing.

Best part of working in Company:
Getting learning sessions from Seniors and sharing design aspects and their pros and cons.
Had an awesome session on how to focus on making a code testable.
With hands on coding too.
Never expected to have such a great experience.

I am just wondering.

Have you guys ever sleep walked?

How was the experience and where did you end up waking up at?

Bought a product using Apple Pay at the grocery store, by the time I got home Facebook was advertising to me the same product. Really? Is there a Facebook+ApplePay link sharing my purchasing data?

Why don’t you like sharing your salary with coworkers? I tell people exactly what I am paid if the conversation comes up. It helps to know where you stand, i.e. if you’re being under paid or if you should ask for more in the next review cycle.

Hotspot for battery sharing.

Productivity is at an all time low because last night just before sleeping I fought with my girlfriend for sharing a click bait link on her Facebook.

Why the FUCK are my project ideas so easy to implement. I wanted to make a static site sharing webpage (imagine github pages), and i fucking made it in 2 hours?????? Fuck me, does anyone know something like codewars or something but with project ideas instead of algorithms?

🐙/* Friendly reminder */ 🐙

Don't forget about Hacktoberfest, a great way of giving back to the open source community 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦. And remember, if you create at least 4 pull request you'll get a t-shirt! 👕👚

Awhile ago someone mentioned Freepik and interested to buy the premium package, if my memory serves me. I forgot who.

But Freepik is giving 40% off right now.

// I'm just a Freepik user sharing for anyone interested. I don't get any promotion fees (sadly) ☹️

I will be starting to work on another of my project/idea from today.

A cross platform application very similar to Slack, but much more simple and free of unnecessary features.

It would have most of the below functionalities and will respect users' privacy.

E-mail server and client
Contacts
Calendar
To-Do listing
Reminders
Notepad
Bookmarker
Password manager
IM
File sharing
Screen sharing
Audio and Video calling

I will be starting with wire-frames today and then design the logic around.

I am just confused to whether make it a self hosted product (but then people who are not technically sound will not use it or avoid the hassle), Open Source, Libre, Freeware or economically proprietary to manage server expenses.

I would love to have your feedback/opinion on this project of mine.

Thank you! :)

I have a great job, working on interesting projects with good, competent people.

But sharing an office is slowly driving me insane.

So today I started working on a code base someone else wrote and stubled across this and thought it was worth sharing.

Why somebody would be doing something like this is beyond my understanding.

Not commenting on the empty catch block keep in mind the whole snippet has nothing to do with rest of the code...

WHY!!!!!?!?!?!?!

Lmao Apple's latest security fix for High Sierra broke the file sharing system.

Tibil : Idea Sharing Platform

Windows 10 why you turn on my PC at night and then doing your restart for update AND AFTER THAT YOU CANT HIBERNATE PC LIKE IT WAS? YOU DUMBASS IM SLEEPING RIGHT NEXT TO THAT BEAST. I WANT SILENCE. Linux users pls rant with me. Thank you devrant, now I can go to sleep after sharing my frustration.

0. working PCs
0.0 technically they are working, but they are too slow to even open up eclipse
0.1 maybe this gets better at university
1 coding on paper
2 not using google + usbs + network drives for code sharing
3 if it might be applicable PLEASE ENABLE THE FUCKING CMD! OR LET ME USE ARCH ON MY STICK! C'MON

4th day at new job: password sharing through emails or excel sheet that’s password protected! Well, there is something called LastPass, but no they don’t like 🤦🏻‍♂️

If you expect someone to help you with your errors/bugs, at least get some proper logs and explain what you tried that didn't work. Don't just spam them with pictures of errors or "something is wrong. Please fix".

I've seen people taking pics of their monitors. Half the code is eligible due to the glare -_-. At least take the effort of posting your code somewhere and sharing a link. GitHub would be the best go IMO

Wishing their was an ability to save images and gifs for sharing later....

I know we can share rants but sometimes sharing things as images are easier then a dev link

what hosting provider do you guys use? I don't host any of my projects online yet and I wanna get started. I mainly wanna use it for PHP / Symfony stuff, nothing that uses humongous amounts of resources.

Sharing word files should be illegal

Used to have FiOS at the office. Apparently someone thought we were having "issues" with the connection, so for a week we were sharing off a neighbor's connection while they found a new vendor and got it set up.

...we're now on Cox.

Hey so.. I do alot of work using Ableton Live 9 Intro but I am also switching to either Ubuntu or arch.. great, that's fine. One problem tho.. there is no Linux version for Ableton. Does anyone have a working steup for Ableton on Linux? If so would you mind sharing it with me?

CLIENT: My wordpress site runs really slowly, can you fix it?
Me: Yeah sure, let me have a look.
*logs in and sees Facebook feeds, twitter feeds, 3 seo plugins, 5 backup generators, 4 slider plugins, jscomposer, social sharing buttons and loads more*
Me: Do you realise that you don't need that many plugins?
Client : well they make my site really fancy and my customers love it.
Me: yafud

Sharing an office with someone who loves their music so much they think everyone should hear it through their headphones 😤

Just started learning Docker. The thing that seemed complex a week ago has started to unwrap the wonders it holds. Hope to make it work to ease up some of the team's deployment headache. Though there were hurdles related to firewall, company intranet, network antivirus, domain sharing etc. But managed to resolve it today.

Was trying to find the option for sharing a video with start at specific time.. accidentally stumbled uppon this.. was pissed at first for hiding start at option, but found this, so now I am mildly happy and amused..

Everytime I face a new bug, my innerself tries to convince me that I can never find a solution to this.
But my gut feelings know that sooner or later I've always found a solution.

Thanks to all the devs sharing their problems in the internet.

!dev

But i like sharing.

So i hated stout. But recently i had a kid and my partners parents are from England. Back in the day，breastfeeding mums used to drink light stout， because the yeast helped to boost milk production.

Well i buy beer every week and run out of it by wednesday. So at my disgust i started drinking stout.

Now my brestfeeding partner complains coz i drink all her beer ;)

I thought it was worth sharing :)

@dfox @trogus would you guys mind sharing some statistics on devRant? I've been very curious about the following metrics:
- Daily active users
- Weekly active users
- All time rants count
- Monthly comments count
- Total users count
Thanks for reading and thanks even more for making this beautiful platform 😃

Had to track down IDA 5.0 today because I need to decompile a DOS program and DOS' included debugger wasn't cutting it. (Related note: If anyone has a copy of SOURCER, mind sharing?)

Inspired by others posting nyan cat pictures in their code, thought it was worth sharing that I regularly put hidden ascii doges and use numbers like 42069 whenever at all possible in production code. If you believe in yourself and don't give up, you will get enough of those soldiers last code review.

My desk buddy. If you are still sharing these ... Not a duck but works better!

Some Devs need to be better about sharing info. Like, I don't want to play 20Qs just to learn how to configure a system I never used. You have job security, don't worry! Other people are allowed to know what ya know; you don't need to impress anyone!

Sharing my colleague's recent experience..
He was working in development of version 1.0 for an application last month, and it was scheduled to be released but when I asked him today how did the roll out went, he said "I am assigned to directly release the v2.0 of this application."

My first time standing up and talking about something for an hour tomorrow. "Knowledge sharing" as if I don't do enough one on one...

Why must you have to do this shit to get promoted? Why can't managers trust that your good at what you do without the public cock sucking?

Back to my introverted rock for a while.

Sharing a project with someone that still uses Visual Studio 2005 and refuses to upgrade to the same as everyone else, meaning the first hour or 2 looking at their work on your own machine consists of fixing bugs that prevent it from building

So, I was visiting a friend and we hung out 2 weekends in a row with one of her friends. No sharing numbers, no communication other than being in the same general area as one another for a few hours on 2 differentweekends.
So with 1 mutual friend, guess who facebook recommended to add as a new friend?

Thanks mark

My partner decided to handle sales/marketing part and asked for 50:50 profit sharing, then finally it came to a mutually agreeable ratio 60:40 share of a project.

On the week after I've made few of the prototypes with modularized codebase. My partner dropped me this, "hey the project is cancelled. We ain't getting any payment"

End up in a way I found out that he's outsourcing some cheap contractors. Well let's wish him some luck! 💩

My first software boss who didn't like sharing the source code...
OR using built in classes
and insisted on using frames because "they prevent caching" 😂

Current status: Writing a markdown document containing all my tips and tricks for fixing bugs in our apps so we can handover to maintenance. Including files I commonly have to look in, handy keyboard shortcuts, IDE settings and other tools that have made debugging easier. I figure if these guys are having a bunch of legacy apps dumped on them when they have no iOS experience, I should help them out as much as I can before I move projects.

That warm and fuzzy feeling.
