I started working in 2014. In one of my first jobs they gave me a virtual machine running Windows 2000.
I had a conversation that went more or less this way:
Me: «Why a so old OS?»
Boss: «Because we rely on an old library which has been compiled on Windows 2000»
Me: «What library is it? Who wrote it?»
Boss: «We wrote it. It belongs to our company.»
Me: «Can we try to port it on a more recent OS?»
Boss: «Oh, we've lost the source code a long time ago...»
Me: «...»8 -

So I was at work and send to another location (distribution centers) and in the lunch break my guider for that day and I started a conversation about servers etc (he appeared to do loads of stuff with that). He recommended me all those programs but I didn't recognize anything so I asked him what kinda servers he ran. He runs a lot of Windows servers. No problem for me but I told him that I am into Linux servers myself.
Guy: "Linux guy, eh? That system is considered to be so secure but in reality it's insecure as fuck!".
Me: (If he would come up with real/good arguments I am not going to argue against that by the way!) Uhm howso/why would you think that?
Guy: "Well all those script kiddies being able to execute code on your system doesn't seem that secure.".
*me thinking: okay hold on, let's ask for an explanation as that doesn't make any fucking sense 😐*
Me: "Uhm how do you mean, could you elaborate on that?"
Guy: "Well since it's open source it allows anyone to run any shit on your system that they'd like. That's why windows rocks, it doesn't let outsiders execute bad code on it.".
Seriously I am wondering where the hell he heard that. My face at that moment (internally, I didn't want to start a heated discussion): 😐 😲.

Client: So we want you to redesign the frontend for this app
Me: Ok, sounds easy enough, send me the source code and API documentation
Client: yeaaaaaah, here's the thing, we don't have the frontend source code anymore, we originally wrote it in React and then we lost the source code, we only have the bundles now
Me: ok fine, I can handle it, can I have the API doc?
Client: yeaaaaaah, here's the thing, we didn't write API docs, but we have the source code if you want

This here is some source code that i made. And I'll admit, I was a bit frustrated at the time of making. I just started learning to code in HTML and CSS a coulpe days ago. And a friend asked if I could make him a website. So I told him that I barely know the basics yet. And he says that it doesn't matter just as long as he gets a website. So now, a couple days of tryhard coding later, he raged about how bad the site looked and that he himself could have done a better job than I did. And yet the entire site had over 300 lines of code in it (perhaps not very much for you hardcore coders out there, but a biiig step for me) and several subpages, all with custom error pages and all. Although I'll admit, the design was a fucking ugly as fuck since i can design about as good as an alligator flies. But man was I mad after that, haven't talked to him since. The bastard. But to he point, in my rage i made this. An outburst of anger that I later refactored to fit a large amount of devs (since I reckon 99% of programmers deal with clients/customers instead of friends). And if anyone has a spare dns space to put the code on, then help yourself.

Manager: "Didn't you install it?"
Me: "I did, but I'd need <third-party>'s source code if you want me to make changes and that problem would probably take at least a day to fix."

Prof: "Hey, you can take a look at the source code that we used last year in this research paper"
Me :(surprise because other papers usually don't share source code), "Okay"
A few weeks later:
Me: "Prof, if you use method A instead of method B, you can get better performance by 20%. Here's the link"
Prof:"The source link that you mentioned is for another instrument, not GPU"
Me:"Yeah, but I tested in on GPU and I found it is also applied in my device"
Prof:"That's interesting."

TLDR; i wrote recursive compression with random algorithm to fuck up some lazy ass girl.
one day, unknown classmate told me she has a family reunion and cannot do his programming assignment which will be collected next day in the morning, so she ask me to do it. i say i need to put a price tag to it because i want to buy a new RasPi --i don't know her either so i don't feel bad about it. i told her i need $20 and after some bargaining it settled at $15. i work on it about 3 hours and told her it's finished and send her demo video as a proof. she happy with the result. and will come to my house later that night to get the source code. at night, she came, and give me only $8 bucks, of course i get mad, with every arguments she throws at me i resist to give her the source code. but since i tired enough to get into a longer arguments i accept the 8 bucks i go upstairs to get the source code. but instead of giving her the actual source code; i wrote a quick script to do 50 compress source code folder recursively with random compression algorithm--sometimes gzip sometimes lzma. and give her the final 50 times compressed source code.

I'm tired of the lack of competition. Open source and public code is supposed to bring people together but a lot of the time it just puts people down and makes them think "why would I recode that if it's already made?" It's going to kill the amount of people actually learning to program because their ideas are just crushed by people who already made them.
The people who are going to be more successful are going to be the ignorant ones who don't bother looking if it exists first and that is kinda sad.9 -

Hello fellas! 👋
I recently told you that I’m planning to pull out Chaaat – a fully open source messenger that doesn’t track you and doesn’t share your data: https://devrant.com/rants/1549251/....
The project is also mentioned here: https://devrant.com/rants/1570178/...
So, I’m here to tell you good news – a great developer, @not-a-muggle, decided to join me, and now we made a team!
I also made some conversations and acquired “chaaat” name from another team on Heroku, so now we have consistent domain name on both Heroku and GitHub Pages.
We have Trello board with very well described tasks almost anyone can do. We also have Slack to have both business and free conversations.
If you’re seeking a place to contribute and gain some NodeJS / React / PWA / WebRTC experience with detailed code review from experienced developer, just mention me here or shoot me an email on hello@miloslav.website. Provide your email so I’ll be able to contact you.
Our main goals are:
1. Have fun and some experience
2. Make it to Chrome Experiments mention
Marketing/advertising help is much appreciated.
Feel free to email me anytime!8 -

Going through the stacktrace of my 30 line of Tensorflow code, made me surf almost 20 different library source codes.
-
I started learning programming by downloading phpnuke and tearing apart the source code. Before WordPress became popular there was phpnuke :) Google it you youngsters1

Love this open job position of node.js developer on BMW Group.
Working with cars and open source code its a Saint Graal.
But not this time. -
How do you actually accredit code stolen from a project on github? Like it's not used commercially and it's going to be on github, too.
for context: i stole a java class from a minecraft mod. which is about 5% of the source project but makes more then 50% of my project.4 -
Well editor? nvim
Vim that just works.
But actual IDE? Most certainly the JetBrains products. The very best code completion, code generation, error checker, etc... all that even in the open source Community Edition :) -
I find it really hard to accept that a non-iOS developer rates my performance based on source code he doesn't clearly understand
-
To the friend ranting about having to copy pseudo code on paper, I feel your pain. Analog IT professors are the worst.
I raise you one with : I had a professor that had me sent in source code files, a pdf with all the source code and a paper printout of every single line of code for a html/php project. Fifty pages of code printed for reasons I cannot understand. And no, I checked later, he didn't ask for it to take notes during the exam.5 -
Recently I've been noticing bugs in software products I use and I can't help but report them! For open-source software I sometimes even try to dig around the source code, out of curiosity.
-
It's kind of depressing looking at how bad the source code has transformed from a previous project that I had planned, designed, and did the initial implementation.
But I guess this is the problem of having developers who don't really care about the quality of their work, especially when it comes to PHP. -
How I hate all those people who think VisualStudio Code is Open Source. It's not! Read the f*cking license!
https://code.visualstudio.com/licen...
In fact, you aren't even allowed to inspect its network traffic. Not to mention reverse engineering. That's nowhere near OpenSource.
You sure can download the source code, licensed as MIT, but building it won't give you the same piece of software.
Don't believe in everything someone tells you. Use your brain and check the facts.12 -
How can I get started in open source? I tried forking a repository and do a bug fix, but their code base was ugly as hell and makes me unsure about what open source projects to contribute to.6
-
Facepalm of the day:
My coworkers commits third party libraries AND the source code of them. Of course, the source code is never used.1 -
Comments throughout code with things like "changed to fix bug #". And commented out code all over.
We have source control, why the hell are you doing this? -
I have the misfortune of reading the source code that there are comment on who change what line of code at "actual source file" instead of just using version control.2
-
I just discovered that Go needs a very long time to compile a 120MB source code file. Beside the fact that the file was very big, it just contained a big amount of byte arrays.
Did anyone had ever such big source code files?5 -
When I first discovered QBASIC installed on my machine, cracked open the source code to Gorillas, and tried changing it to see what would happen.

Do you think elon musk will do good things to twitter? And do you think he will make some things open source? I don't think i want to see twitters source code17
-
I was happy doing my sideprojects.
Then the landlord came...
Needless to say he wasn't interested in the source code...1 -
Let's say the app you built costs X.
How much would you make the customer pay for the non-mantained source code as it is at that specific point?
I'm asking because I just found a library which costs 50$ for compiled version and 2000$ for source code5 -
1) receive functional requirements
2) create functional specification, post it on forum (no jira)
3) create memo document, post it on forum (no jira)
4) create analysis document with actual code changes without seeing the code (wait for step 8), post it on forum (no jira)
5) receive review on analysis document, fix it and post (no jira, redmine etc from now till the end of rant)
6) after analysis is approved make a checkout request
7) source code manager checkouts files from svn and posts them on forum along with the files list
8) you make actual changes to the code, post changed sources on forum
9) source code manager makes a review to check that amendment commet is present in source code and is properly tagged, and every line of code chnged is properly tagged (you are not allowed to delete anything, not even one space, you need to comment it (and put an appropriate tag))
10) after you passed review you fill in standard compilation request form
11) you code is compiled and elf is put on testing stand
12) you fill in "actual behaviour" and "expected behaviour" columns near description of changed function in template of unit test plan document (yeah we have unit testing) and post it on forum
13) if testing ok changed sources and compiled elfs along with its versions (cksum) commited to svn (not by you, there is a source code manager for that)
14) if someone developed function in same source file as you "commited" he is warned by source code manager and fills checkout request form again
15) ...2 -
All those volume sliders people were posting, some were made, WITH source code provided. Hope your clients enjoy.

Hit into NullPointerException on production then I saw this in the source code,
entity.getKey().getValue().contains("a string"):2 -

If I want to develop a fuzzer for an open source software, do I need to code it in the same language as the open source software is written?
-
Java's garbage collector must be broken - it failed to get rid of this dumpster fire another dev called "source code". But, hey, at least the profiler works.

I thought the ReadMe file on git was for how to use someone's source code. why I find most of them empty!! 👊 😉 others jst have -----###2

I would like to understand xcb library by looking at the rofi (dmenu replacement) source code but there is no code documentation. How do you guys deal with non-documented source code (supposed to be easy)3
-
if you write awesome code that's undocumented nobody will ever use it, or why I use external open source libraries over internal ones

Is there any chance that Linux open source distributions such as Ubuntu would hide malicious code or backdoor or similar thing in their code and simply hide it in their release publication?15

I pass the day writing a script to encapsulate the migration of the old csproj to the new format. But, when the open source app returns an error of migrating the script continue. I check the return code and when it's an error, it's return 0.
After many tries, I return to my house and start looking at the open source code for understand what's happening and try to correct it.
OMFG, I cannot change the code to return an `int` instead of void. The method is in the public area of the code.
I very happy that this app, it's open source, so I can do my own version for my need.1 -
Is there anywhere that you can get your open source code brutally reviewed?
As the (almost) sole developer on a project (and only just entering the world of professional software development), I have no idea if the stuff I've written is good, bad, or just plain disgusting, and obviously the only way to improve is to be aware of the mistakes you made3 -
Someone took my source code to a different company changed the source code and brought it back without documentation.
Am like hoNknawMHdFrStVz -
I was looking for a RRule Generator Component in ReactJS because I (a back-end dev) am lazy af to build front-end component. It drains my energy and I stumbled upon "react-rrule-generator". And holy moly. It is no longer maintained, but it has a very beautiful code. Then I thought, I should search more open source projects where code is clean so I can learn more.
So, do any of you know any open source project, library code or whatever that you think has a very clean code?3 -
Surprise nobody says: read the documentation and possible the source code of the lang/framework/library/toolkit/etc. Understanding your code, how fits in the big picture and what you try to accomplish make your code better.
That explain why we have tough ops days ... -
Power to edit source code of body and make it a boxer body like Jake Gyllenhaal. Damn, that'd be amazing! 😎🤓

Is there a testing library of source code snippets for testing babel plugins?
Ideally a pack of like all possible javascript snippets? Otherwise how do you know if your plugin may ever fail or cause bad code?4 -
"I'm going to save space in my source code file by using obscure abbreviations for all my #define statements, and cramming as much C code into as few lines as possible."
- teammate who apparently has no idea how a preprocessor works, and who thinks "code density" literally means cramming lines of code in as small a space as possible in the source file!
