Just because I'm a programmer doesn't mean I'm some nerd that watches anime, relishes in video games, and spends more time around computers than around girls!

So I just got rejected for a job for being too introverted.
They were very impressed with my advanced and broad technical knowledge but they said I'm "too introverted to hang out with cool, young people". That's ageism and that's illegal. Anyway.
I have more knowledge than most senior specialist devs (I've worked with them and I know them) but just because I'm a reserved and thinking person, I'm not welcome in this society of idiots and I don't get a job.
Two words: fuck society.46 -
Days and days, 5+ hours later I finally figured out the issue.

Python is so ridiculously easy and fast to write, I'm just waiting for the release where you just say:

A teacher who came to see if I'm programming correctly asked me to start my curly braces on a new line like

F() {

That feeling of when you finish a year long project, showing it off to family and getting a "huh that's it?" response. I just poured all being into this, it's okay. 😐3

Conversation I just heard
Manager: How's everyone doing?
Dev: I'm actually really tired. I've been having trouble concentrating and reading. I think I need a vacation.
Manager: Oh but that's good. You see, the brain is like a muscle. Today you lift 30kg, tomorrow you lift 40kg. So you will be able to handle more and more stress as you progress. That's great.
Dev: ...19 -
Yet another someone just contacted me about having a "great idea for an app".

Companies Mentality.
If an employee dies during working hours, companies be like "That's so unprofessional! did he just died without filling up the form and announcing to us?"2 -
LOL that's why I love C!
The function pointer cast for strcmp because qsort expects a compare function with two const void * pointers instead of two const char * pointers, that's just beautiful.
Not to mention the hack to abuse strcmp on a struct - which just works because the first struct member is a string and the rest just gets swapped with memcpy as opaque data.
I guess that wouldn't pass a code review at work. :-)

Why do people mix JS vanilla with framework syntax? That's horrible.
Why do people use jQuery anyways? There's no need at all anymore. It is just dumb JS for dumb devs.

Well, that's one way of getting rid of bugs and creating other issues, since it never works out to have just random people fix never to be touched again systems

> Blue Prism just stopped working
And that's how 12 time-critical processes in production just went out of the window for no fucking reason other than the sheer malice of those beasts of burden who designed BP in the first place :)
0 days since last catastrophic blue prism crash

So I just spent all morning struggling setting up a project and getting it to run. My colleague sent me a screenshot of the documentation wiki, but didn't give the link.
*4 hours later looks at email for the Nth time*
Wait he did... that's not a wiki, that's Readme.md... this is in the repo link right above it!
I didn't need to checkout the repo so didn't open it... -
y'know what's ironic? people rush over things and avoid meetings, documentation or just speaking to each other, all for the sake of productivity, not realizing that's what destroys the team2

"Oh, you committed at a top level? That's alright I'm going to make you revert at file level, all 10 files in 4 directories. Oh and I may just keep one or two with your changes just for old times sake."

Api for providing a central platform of connected accounts. So you can do stuff like get your pubg info in discord or get your Twitter in steam. Has more uses I guess but that's just a starting point :)

It's amazing how much you'll learn can be done just by having an issue you need to fix.
I had no idea you can have click to enlarge pics inside a word document. That's brilliant3 -
When you have to fix a bug that's just happening in IE11 on Windows 7... 😧😩 well, nobody should even be using that shit!!!4

Murder the other applicants.
If you can't just do that, hit up your friends and colleagues for connections into companies. That's the easiest way to get a job, I find. -
I just LOVE (hate) watching people click on the ad link to YouTube that's not actually YouTube and then call me over to get them out of the spam site.1

My first words to one fresh graduate , which just started his backend path:
Untested code is a garbage waiting to be collected. Even if some companies / teams somehow manage to do miracles and to work with untested code... that's just a pre-death fantasy of a dying man. -
aff. I just said my managers management skills seem to be improving on the company survey.
Then he asks me "why isn't the status quo done in the new way"
o.o
me: "that's what status quo means"1 -
So many people on devRant rave about iPhones because of the better security and privacy, but the new iPhone X starts at a whopping $1000! Sure, you don't have to get the X, but that's what everybody wants.
You'll say "well, I'm willing to pay more if it means better security because that's just the way it is." It doesn't have to be. It would be much more beneficial to actually fight and take a stand for better security and more privacy than just put up with outrageous prices.1 -
That awkward moment when I spend two days configuring my proxy server and nothing works, I just try calling my server base url and that shit works O_O
That's a good start for a monday10 -
Just do the easy part(s) of the task first. Once you see that the task isn't as bad as anticipated, you're more likely to just tackle the whole thing. That's my experience anyway.2

Somebody, please lemme know what those first two 0's signify?3 -
What do you name a library that just expands upon an existing library?
As in, it has the same functionality, but just goes about it in a different way to make it nicer to work with
Don't want to just prefix it with "better-" or something since a) that's probably subjective and b) it's a bit on the arrogant side9 -
Everything can be fixed, it just requires a methodical and calm approach.
That's what I keep repeating in my head, as I desperately try to fix my mums washing machine before she gets back from holiday.

Please don't ask another dev what he's doing after he refuses to answer twice... Just gtfo if you see he's busy.
I didn't mean to be harsh but that's how I feel. -
I wonder if the support girls at this domain registrar company are real girls or just a fake front to appeal to the customers.
The ones I have chatted with so far have russian names.
If they are real girls, that's pretty cool. I appreciate girls in IT industry.
But if they are fake profiles, that's quite shitty of them to manipulate customers like that.5 -

By implementing proper eager loading in Eloquent, based on a sample request, I reduced it from 850 DB queries down to just 14 DB queries. So that's an increase in 98% performance?

Our lead frontend dev insists on using <select> as a dropdown for a language switcher in the navbar of a website and then make the page redirect to the localized url using the onChange event with JS.
Am I wrong thinking that's just really, really dumb, or am I just dumb?3 -

Client: I need to organize this data in my database, just let me create any folder, and folders inside folders. I mean, it is a database so you can create folders right?
Me: I'll see what I can do
Inner me: NO, F U, that's not easy, that's not how databases work, WTH is wrong with you4 -
Just got an email that Datree is closing shop. That's too bad, I considered it a mandatory production k8s tool.
I guess I'll have to whip up some Frankenstein replacement with Open Policy Agent... -
I talked to one of my coworkers about my next steps for completing my next project and he responds so lithargically. I don't know if he thinks I'm just an unexperienced idiot of if that's just how he is. Maybe it's just my imposter syndrome kicking in.

Let's exclude some files from our coverlet coverage test!
Sure! That's easy, just remember to pass this super short, understandable, and rememberable command-line argument:
-- DataCollectionRunSettings.DataCollectors.DataCollector.Configuration.ExcludeByFile="**/myFile.cs/**"
You're fucking kidding me, right?
It's 2022 and tools are still using PowerShell syntax... just kill me1 -
