Heard a CEO say at a conference that they hire the most competent candidate. Unless there is a woman in the candidates. Then they hire the woman.
That seems pretty sexist to me.

My keyboard doesn't look right unless the Num Lock light is on.

I don't get 50 shades of grey.

They should have called it: "256 shades of gray unless you're on 10bit HDR, then its 1024 shades of grey"

That would have made much more sense

everything has a terrible api unless you made it yourself

Like every developers I also hate when you miss that stupid semicolon. unless you're in python

My dad used to be a software engineer so he and my mom understand. They just "want better" for their daughter, and for me to "use my gifts" whatever those are.

Unless they mean my sarcasm and foul mouth. But I can use those as a dev.

Internship has taught me that as long as you know one good language then you can do anything in other language with a little bit help from online.

Unless it's c++.

c++ has pointer.

That means you're fucked.

That also means you're in for a lot of fun.

Headphones ON ears means DON'T disturb unless it's important.

Talking about the chance of rain is not f*ing important. Especially when it's the 10th effin time I'm interrupted by nonsense officetalk in one hour!

Rule I've never learned and main reason why I don't have enough money despite 25+ years of experience.

Hotel offers no breakfast, towels are not exchanged unless you request every day, staff does not speak English, cleanness is clearly very broad definition...

WiFi is excellent.

5/5 would recommend.

Yes. You don't use Windows until and unless you are developing for Windows environment!

I don't get people who rant about missing brackets... Your IDE/Editor will notice it and you're going to notice it. Unless of course you use Notepad.

It's not funny anymore.

"I'll not sign off this project unless you promise me that the app will NOT GET WET WHEN YOU UPLOAD IT TO THE CLOUD" (was a desk application... I left the company that same day and promised myself I'll never get back)

Unless you don't want a merry Christmas. Then that's fine as well

"Unless it's the big red button with launch codes, there are no buttons you can press that I can't unpress"
Translation: you have to TRY to mess up so bad it's beyond repair.

I don't mind if you down vote my answers on stack-overflow. But unless you leave a better answer or a comment explaining why, you are a fucking troll and an asshole.

You aren't helping me or others learn from our mistakes by showing us the better way.

Fleksy, if you're going to tell me through a fucking annoying notification that you won't run unless I update Google play services (those can go fuck themselves, I'm not updating that fucking malware) one more goddamn time, I'll fucking exterminate you.

Is it just me or does this shirt make no sense? If your coffee was empty, then it would return true and you would keep coding. If it was not empty you would fill it.

Plus it's not a while loop, so unless this is some sort of recursion you wouldn't keep going....

I draw things! I bet we all draw things, but I still think it counts as nerdy.

...unless you draw UML diagrams on whiteboards. Doesn't count.

... unless you draw stick figures battling ON those UML diagrams. Counts.

... unless those stick figures battling demonstrate dependencies or demographics. Doesn't count.

... unless you put little pirate hats on them. Counts.

... unless you're contracting for a Somali counter-piracy recon project. Doesn't count.

... unless you also include dank memes. Counts.

Do NOT deploy this weekend unless you want to debug in your parent's house in your old bedroom at midnight 😅

RFC 6068: The 'mailto' URI is suppose to use commas to separate email addresses.

Guy using VPN:
why would anybody use tor unless he hides something?

Me (using Tor):
why would anyone use VPN unless he hides something?

In my opinion there is no difference in using Tor than in using VPN, it's all about privacy. I would consider Tor as an free alternative for your everyday privacy needs, if you can't afford VPN, or am I wrong?

Snippet of an overheard conversation today:

As seen at one hotel in Dublin: "Don't stay in your bed unless you know how to make money in your bed".
Looks like I'm OK to stay in my bed because I'm a freelancer.

Do you still store your music files locally?

I like owning my music files on my storage.

Disadvantages:
Storage space
Time spent organising metadata

Advantages:
Savour the quality
Accessible

I don't have an internet access all the time unless I'm home. I feel left behind seeing everyone just streaming music.

DevRant - We need polls in this app! , Unless its there somewhere and I haven't noticed.

does every computer guy has this sitting problem....

for the record i do
and i never notice that unless and until i m finished with my work😂😂😂😂😂😂

Worst realisation of myself when I was a greenhorn dev? Nobody gives a f***ing damn of what you achieve as a software developer. For them you're just the uncool nerd - end of story. That's where I just stopped having any conversations about my job at all... unless it's with other devs.

Not going to one because crowds give me panic attacks unless I've had a beer or ten

YouTube. I used to love it a lot but now I don't recognize it. It pushes its agenda everywhere only certain content becoming popular. And regular people don't have much of a way for getting noticed unless they're in an extremely niche section. It's gone the way of the TV and I don't think it's coming back barring a massive internal restructuring.

Nobody TOUCH ME unless you intend to push me to +1111

Worked for the US federal government. Stuff couldn't be used unless it had been approved. Had to us Python 2.6. Python 3 was out by then. Basically anything brand new or even new within the last 5 years wasn't allowed, but was expected to make apps that represented modern web apps.

I am so pissed that such people. Everyone citizen has non serious attitude that they saying things like "Nothing gonna happen", "Chill, you are panic way to much about the Corona virus", while number of cases are increasing exponentially here too!
WTF,
I have realized that people don't understand something unless it happens to them.
This is shit.
As rational beings, we should be taking drastic measures while we can but NO!
Fuck You!

Me: 😦

Never accuse a co-worker of making a really stupid change to your code unless you know for certain that they made the change instead of you.

Can ppl stop bitching out about their ides not running smoothly with 8gb+ ram? I mean 8gb ram wise is enough, unless you have 20+ browser tabs open, watching some casual porn, downloading some more porn in the background and maybe running some benchmarks just for the sake of not letting your dollars go to waste...

Do ya ever hate how often people use the term "AI" so loosely. It's like saying your thermostat or your "smart oven" (or "smart"-everything) is "AI-infused" because it can regulate the temperature. Unless the machine actually learns something for next time around, a bunch of "if" statements isn't truly AI in my book.

6 am, searching for the reason that put the programm in a non-responding state since 4 am. Turns out I forgot to manipulate the count variable in a while loop, so unless the first object wasn't the correct one, it hot stuck.

How long will it be before clients "get it" the web is a fluid medium it can't and shouldn't be fixed like ink on paper. Unless I do your website as a set of jpegs, you dickhead.

PHP ist one of the languages I use regularly, but not the main language.
Anyhow, passing an array to a function will create a Copy of the array unless you specifically choose to Pass the reference.
That's seriously fucked up. What other language does that?! Coming from C, Java, Python to PHP I was not prepared to expect shit like that.

Can't fucking stand permanently lazy devs who don't give a shit about their craft.

Fuck off and go do something else that you actually give a shit about! *

If coding was a thing 100+ years ago, we'd have quotes by great men like "You won't have space for new ideas unless you shit out the old ones in the toilet." which would be an alternative for "the toilet is the best place to think of algorithms and fixes."

This is why you don't want to have Dev gf. Unless you like emotional Rollercoasters. Trust me, had one...

How I hate when you can't change notification sounds and/or vibrations... Unless I'm totally blind this includes DevRant too at least on Android 😁

Dear person who extended my <T> to <Type> in the documentation:

Fuck you! Everybody knows what the T stands for! Don't mess with my stuff, don't go against my ethics and most of all, don't even dare to talk back on me unless you want me to return the favour and extand that assgole of yours with a cactus

So after two hours of debugging I get to know that Chrome doesn't differentiate between font-weight 100-500 unless on a Mac, and IE does, but IE doesn't support the <picture > tag 😶

I love it when rather than fix the bug that is causing the faulty data you write a bot on a schedule to clean up the faulty data. It's like a bot battle who can mess up / clean up the data the fastest. Unless your clean up bot has a bug then you are just F'ed.

It's only after switching to Linux you realize what all you were missing as a Dev. A package manager, excellent terminal and complete control of your system especially the updates, rock solid depending on the distro and many more. Unless I need to develop for Windows or mac I'm not switching. Long live Linux.

For everyone happy to see Facebook getting negative PR, just remember, unless people decide that they are willing to pay a monthly subscription for social media, nothing is going to change long term.

ChatGPT and similar thing. Sooner or later people will get enough of the novelty and such systems will remain only as some niche tools, unless something extraordinary happens.

Why do they send flat colour logos as fucking jpegs? Indexed png or gif unless you like the artifacting on your shit logo, dickbrain.

"a 5% feature (used by less than 5% of all users) is a distraction for all the other users, and is better removed, unless it’s really critical (a small number of users do need to cancel service, for example)." - Neil Hunt

A morbid realization (I am just wasting your time keep scrolling)

Unless someone takes a stand for the user, and their comfort and requirements, unless someone looks a client straight in the eye and says "no, I will not do that, and neither will my team" and denies them their request, nothing will change, good devs will keep losing their spark to save themselves frustration, good people will walk away and the tyranny that we face daily grows... unless someone stands up, someone who cannot be knocked down, or reprimanded and told they're wrong for fighting for what's right.. unless someone stands up for what is right and fair... nothing changes... and nothing ever will... poor programs, bad games and content, lower standards, frustrated users, annoyance that you don't matter as a user or a dev will never go away... unless someone says enough. But no one will, money is the boss, morality a liability, and people an abundant resource. This world is backwards, devs are carrying the blame and no one who is able, cares enough to say "that's enough!".

Tip: If you try to show LaTeX to someone and you want to show them examples, don't use the images of your search engine of choice for the examples unless you put "formula" next to it.

My teacher at least understood, lul.

As a guy who really just started his web development life I just say the most fun I have is clicking the refresh button ( or npm does it for me ) and seeing my magic work, unless it doesn't and then I press again , maybe this time it will ..

My process to start new coding project?

Unless it was dictated by the powers that be, my process usually begins/began when I hear..

"It's impossible for us to make the program do that" or equivalent negative comment.

It triggers a "Someone hold my beer" area in my brain.

My partner can't wrap her head around why I write all forms of communication in a formal matter, whether it be an email, bug report or text message.

I keep telling her you never know who you are actually talking to unless your face to face, anyone else agree with this logic?

Teams refuses to edit a message unless it is seen by at least 1

Every sacrifice you make for your job will be forgotten in a minute and won’t be rewarded unless you force their hand.

Luckily, I outsourced this experience and have never made sacrifices.

So true and why I've gone on and on over years saying technical interviews are just crap... Good solutions cannot be thought of in 30mins unless you recite what you remembered beforehand.

Never do personal stuff at work, never do work stuff unless hours are being counted. Proper separation of duties.
Boss always tells us we only work 38 hours a week and any other time we do we can take off later.

Procrastination for work projects thus usually involves working on unrelated, more exciting projects instead of the one with the hard deadline ;)

Who else makes it a habit of (in most cases) upvoting the main post when they respond to it?

Unless it's just a terrible post but you had to say something.

But anything neutral and above I respond to, i++

Websites that show a notification dot the first time I visit with zero interaction from my end: I hope you die. This is terrible exploitation of UX, and unless I really need something, I'm leaving the site within seconds.

So the algorithm wanted to prove differently? has the audience spoken?

Personally I don't use Reddit nor Facebook, so I hardly notice reposts unless they come from Twitter.

My dad always tells me to write apps to make money.

I did try that before but conclusion I came to was I can only create apps for myself, not for others. (Unless of course it's a job which gaurantees pay and usually I'm still a user).

Thoughts? How do you guys code/freelance just for the money?

Learn VIM. Unless you're doing Java or some other compiled static typed language. In that case: learn JavaScript and then learn VIM. 😎

I found working from home and not having to interact with coworkers, unless it is about work, makes me very productive.

Nobody, nobody, nobody should accept an office-only position unless they actually want to work in an office. People who actually believe that everyone should go back into the office should be excommunicated from this field. This freedom we have needs to be protected for the best interest of the future.

I wanna learn something new but everytime I take one course I stop at the first video u.u

It's like I can't keep on the learning curve of anything unless I have the real need to do it :/

In addition, everytime I want to retake the course, a new/unknown technology is in front of me and well... everything starts again

GOD is real... unless declared an integer

Is it even a group project unless you did over 50% of the work?

Me: You provided the wrong credentials for AWS. That’s why it won’t work. Please provide updated ones using document I emailed you last month.

Client: I forgot how to do that. Will you be free tonight after 9pm?

Me:.....

Yes. This really just happened. No. I am not doing it unless they pay hourly.

Scrum CSM course: it's good to accept that we can't be perfect.

Also CSM course (1): if it's not followed perfectly it's not scrum

Also CSM course (2): scrum won't work in your team unless the whole organization adopts it

CSM course provider after cert: $1k CSM cert isn't enough to practice Scrum responsibly

All I'm saying is that if we want speech completely locked down on all social media platforms, simply hire the StackOverflow mods and the problem is solved. Nobody will be able to post anything unless the mods believe it's worthwhile for everyone to read and respond to.

That's it. That's the rant.

Broke down and asked the junior dev to help me hash out an issue. He's also struggling with it.

I'm not a retard after all... unless were both retards.

WHY THE FUCK DOES MY MESSAGING APP NEED LOCATION PERMISSION? I HAD REVOKED IT AND NOW IT WONT WORK UNLESS I DO SO! FFS!

Unless production is on fire, usage of @here and @channel should be peer-reviewed

I have the same problem as @linuxxx does. Buying things when I really don't need to.

I went to a mall with a friend today because his headset was literally falling apart. We both bought new headsets. Great.

Lesson learned: Don't leave your house unless necessary.

I personally haven't been washing my hands unless a celebrity on twitter has told me to.

Why THE FUCK is Google Maps React just a gray rectangle unless we resize the window and it magically appears.

Urgh

Data Scientists/Researchers

Stop building libraries.
You can't build libraries.
You're not software engineers.

Write your script as plainly as possible.

Why?

Cus for every fucking paper that has code associated with it, unless it's from Meta or Google, I'm having to edit to make shit work.

Stop over-engineering shit.

Write your model and fuck off.

There is no such a thing as a good dev days. There are only bad and worse days. Unless you are millionaire and you don't have to deal with clients.

An area of my company hired a new director who directed his “DevOps” team to implement a process that would prevent the CI server from running tests on a PR unless the code was reviewed first. He was worried that there would be too many tests executing with 400 developers committing code frequently.

He’s from Yahoo.

I've concluded you can't get a job these days unless you're some fucking wizard. It's always the response: "We found better candidates than you".

Its true unless its javascript, then its false. What the fuck is this? Someone got explanation?

ASP.NET.

I don't like the workflow. Because of a project I had to use it.

Will NEVER use it again (unless a project force me. Money is money).

Imagine companies start charging us for updates...
Oh you want to newest version of iOS? That’ll be $90.

VScode will now be stuck on version 1.51 unless you pay a fee of $20 for it to be able to update this next year.

WOOH!!!!! AFTER 3-4MONTHS, I HAVE REGAINED **INBOX ZERO**

...AND A WHOLE LOT OF TIME!

though my reading list is still just as large, but now I don't know what I've missed.... unless I really want to.... and therefore no longer have the desire to read everything 😀

Probably also need to add a time decay and weighting algorithm... just like devRant's 😉

Lint rules that keep shouting at you unless you arrange the methods of a class in alphabetical order. What fucking value does it bring? Who fucking cares ? Why do we have them? Whhhyyyyyy ?

Wearing headphones all the time and deliberately ignore everything what's being said & is happening in the office unless it affects my work

Fucking Huawei have stopped giving out codes for unlocking the bootloader of their devices. You can't even get one by messaging their support.

Now you can't even root Huawei phones anymore unless you pay for some very sketchy looking software.

Fuck this

Apparently some smart shithead decided to override ctrl+f browser behavior when you edit files directly on github.

Edit renders only part of file and displays search under edit file label that disappears every time you find something. ( what if there is more then one occurrence smartass )

Default ctrl+f can’t find text on page unless it’s displayed.

Thanks morons.

@dfox Any plan to optimise the images? Also, it would be great if there was a option not to load images unless tapped on a rant. It uses a lot of mobile data now. Thanks

Am I the only one who thinks OSX is stupidly insecure unless you encrypt the whole disk? I mean, how dumb is it to boot into safe moot and provide a root shell without prompting for credentials?

Dear theme designers, unless you are designing an app specifically with OLED in mind... Do not use black as a main background colour.

It just looks horrible IMO, key example on good dark theme is the windows store and a example of horrible dark theming is the settings app.

Apparently Apple doesn't support 2FA on your iCloud account unless you own an iPhone.

Public REST (-inspired) API. Should I skip numeric IDs because it's easy for consumers to snoop around?

Example:

POST api/foo
201 Created api/foo/69

Uh, I'll get 68 just because I can. Hopefully it returns Unauthorized, unless we some kind of bug.

Is it just security by obscurity if I use, like, guids or something instead of sequental IDs?

I love IRC. It seems more fun than forums. You get to talk about programming without people hating you for whatever reason. (Unless you do crazy colors with blinking letters.)

The key to debugging methods, is to think methodically.

Architect: I know we said we would never do The Thing because doing The Thing is really bad, but can we do The Thing for a proof of concept?

Full stack isn’t about knowing just a backend and little bit of JavaScript. Turns out a bunch of them who applied this week seem it have derived a new meaning for it!

Anyone run into the HR app called taleo when applying for jobs? It is so bad. Apparently each company has a different database so you have to re-enter all of your employment info each time you apply for a job at a company that uses taleo. Unless desperate I don't apply for jobs that use taleo.

You're not a real dev unless you've made so many changes in your code without testing, that you're too afraid to actually test it.

Okay, had a freelance JavaScript gig (with Three.js 3d lib). Usually I put the code on github so I have easier time switching between Desktop and laptop during work, unless I have to sign an NDA or something. Today at 5 AM I got mail from freelancing site support that client reported me for having code on public repo (but it's not like it is a proprietary software, it's based on threejs editor). I made repo private and went to sleep. Later I'm reading through messages, guy was cursing me, threatend to sue me etc. Ended up dropping the client. Did I do something really unprofessional? Unless I'm told not to, I want to show my code and I don't believe in not showing it by default. What do you guys think?

Unless you’re new around here and didn’t know that I’m an equal opportunity troll.

New person joins client's team to handle one product on the website and asks me to restructure the whole site. Sorry, pal, but unless you have money to add to the project's already spoken-for pot of resources for features, you're gonna have to wait til next year.

Anyone who purposefully makes a CSS rule that’s like 10 classes deep can go fuck themselves with a elongated mason jar. Unless your an evil fuck or a spawn of satan, there’s no reason to make other dev’s jobs a living fucking hell. Fuck you.

I fucking hate apple so goddamn much. They make it next to impossible to connect or reset an old account from 10+ years ago for any modern services unless you are invested in their ecosystem and use it everyday for everything. Have not had any issues with old app accounts connecting through Google. Just sayin

What is with IT and their obsession with error messages?

"If there is no error message, I cannot help"

Your not going to get an error message because the problem is VPN is messing up my DNS due to tunneling. There is no error other than me not having Internet if VPN disconnects unless I reboot.

It's not a new year unless you spend your first day back firefighting shit that broke over the holidays 🙃

C# has static binding by default. Meaning methods aren't overrideable unless you specifically tag them as virtual. I love how in java you can take someone else's random class and override everything with some additional or alternate behaviour.

Immortality in the sense like Matrix did it would be quite handy. Imagine you could become a program like Smith and be able to change your own source code, clone yourself with the same thoughts, knowledge and past.

Well, unless someone turns your machine off.

Hosting Rails is such a pain in the butt.

Heroku, too expensive
DigitalOcean, hard to maintain unless using Hatchbox (Hatchbox, too expensive)
Shared cPanel hosting, too limited, too slow...

I'm setting my own server home from scratch just so I can master fucking Rails deployment.

I find it hard to pickup a new tech unless i need to build something with it. I guess i learn better by doing than just reading.

Weirdest co-worker??, I don't have anyone... unless... :/

Things I have learned today after hours of research, testing, installing, and uninstalling:
windows command line won't reload 'Path' unless you close the terminal

And its not even like I haven't figured this out before!

A large pool of application instances' is writing logs to the same physical file. No way to distinguish which instance wrote which line.

Welcome to hell

We're being asked questions. We're replying that we cannot help unless logging is fixed. Noone's bothering to fix this mess and instead returns tickets with requests to investigate more.

There's deep solace for me in knowing devrant, and particularly its icker users (👀), will be dead in the ground in 60-70 years 🪦⚰️🥀

One day every 2 week, we got to spend the Friday just learning and trying stuff. No working on projects unless it's critical.
On these days, I feel like I learn much more than in the rest of the weeks.
Today I built (normally Python developer) a web service using Rust.

Take a day off, entire system goes down. Come in the next day: "We need to fix this".

12 hours later we get the system back up and a significant design flaw is now known which needs to be fixed on Monday.

It feels good to have the bandaid in place.

Don't use cursors kids, unless you absolutely have to.

My code works.
Well, it should, but not like this.
I've set some datas to a nested form,  saved by a variable named 'stat1', however the code won't work unless I use a variable named 'fields'. Not 'stat1'. I'm only 24 years old and I already feel too old for this shit.

There HR sucks, can't call on booked time, for phone screening and wanted me after I applied for job 4 months ago. I still entertained them. But now, it has gone too far.
I am blacklisting GM for life. I will never ever work for them, unless they give me 1 Million per month

If a bug is logged don't mark it as resolved unless you commit that resolution.

Also don't mark it resolved without at least a one-liner of the fix/expected behavior.

I won't push the documentation unless the guy pays me!

Anyone else find slack a time waster unless you are actively working on a team? I feel it fails when used for a user group: l have left most slack teams because it is like repeatedly looking in the fridge and not finding anything interesting.

So another rant inspired me.
Tell me one fact or detail about your favorite programming language, other devs not using it, might not know about.

I go with: In Delphi you don't have garbage collection, unless you use interfaces the right way.

Linux, Linux, Linux. That is ALL I hear around these parts! If ya think about it nobody makes a dime off of Linux instead of the end-user. Well, unless that user is a developer. In that case, OPEN SOURCE EVERYTHING boi.

I want to be able to learn how to program as of now but there's no good courses online that I can actually interact with and my programming elective starts next semester in school. So unless one of you Devs can give a good suggestion, I'm basically sitting here playing with the commands I do know in my Linux terminal.

No one cares about how a module works unless it stops working

1337 haxxor here! jk, but its fun to analyze the sourcecode of a streaming site to find the video source giving a 403 error on direct download unless i force the beforeload-adress as a referrer. quite the feeling like my first ftp-download album back in the days.

i know i am childish.

Will there be a follow user list feature in the future for devRant? Something similar to Twitter's list feature. I have a few friends who have joined but no easy way to view their rants.

Unless the feature is already there and I can't seem to find it?

Picking up the work on an existing Wordpress site.

When a non-tech person started a WP page and you as a software engineer should "improve it a little bit, since [the client] already did most of the work"...

By now - unless I really cannot get around it - I refuse to start working extensively on existing wordpress sites.

I can’t code without dead silence. I cannot concentrate on coding whatsoever unless there is dead silence in my house which leads me to usually coding in the middle of the night so I don’t hear people. Then I lose sleep and I lose my health. Anyone else?

This has just happened

general channel to discuss sonos.
I have sales team less than 1m away.

this office is a fucking pub.
free beers, people telling jokes and
having non work conversations, free beer/wine.

The dream! unless you want to code.
if you want to code....ah NO WFH POLICY.

"You should never be working under someone who's not smarter than you. Unless one day you surpass me, then keep it up and don't tell anyone."

"unless" statements with an "else" branch 😒😵 please don't...

When in doubt read the documentation. Unless the documentation states quite clearly that your one niche scenario is actually not possible. Then what?

Developer environment on Mac > Developer environment on Windows.

Just saying. Unless it’s for game development. Or for shitty server software development AKA Microsoft Server 2003.

Anyone has advice for android app monetization? I hear you can make more with a third party, plus, you don't make any money unless they uses taps the ad? What would you go with?

aight so my spine hurts from sitting like an asshole too much what do i do

but I also run outside almost every day unless im completely ded inside

The way of the code warrior is no match against the way of the wife...

...unless, wife is a developer as well :)

Fuck you Python! "It's global, unless you modify it. Then you have to use a keyword first." "It is passing reference by value." Asshole language that tries to be too flexible!

Thanks for nothing, Insomnia REST. Everyone using it beware: turn off auto update, version 8.0 will look you out of your projects unless you create an account with them.
Get fucked.

I don't git init until I'm ready for the public to see it... or unless I'm leaving the house

Honestly... just discipline. We're not addicts (unless any of you are I guess) but if you need to focus then just have a quiet word with yourself.

Don't go on Netflix or whatever social media brain dissolver that you subscribe to.

In the words of Mr LaBouf: just do it.

Craziest deadline? Anything within a month from now (unless you like your projects shitty).

Flex box, seems nice unless it doesn't wrap the row the way you expect

I loved Lubutu...n like to use it until n unless it's brightness f*cked up my eyes 😐

To my vigilant code review overlords, yes, I appreciate the scrutiny, but must we nitpick every variable name? I've been told my camelCase is more like llamaCase.
Let's focus on real bugs, not whether my indentation is an affront to nature.

Remember, the perfect code doesn't exist – unless you're coding on a cloud XD

//Met an old friend
So I heard you're a programmer now. I need some help from you.

*write something on paper

HACK this fb account unless you are a big fat phony.

Unless you are an analyst who deals with a lot of information*, your relatively simple computer programs should not require hundreds of megabytes of RAM. For the love of God, please remember this.

*“Big data” sounds stupid.

(Time to actually code feature + time to debug it + time for unit tests to pass/add) * 1.5

Works great in my case unless there are some big major road blocks

No more FREE work unless it's OSS or my project!!!

2 days (actually about 4 hours) of battling a stupid CSS grid arrange that wouldn't behave.
Turns out 1fr (aka fill parent) works unless the child is another grid. In that case it forgets and just stretches the freaking parent as if there was no rule whatsoever.
If you have problems with CSS grids, consider trying flattening the markup...

Never catch exception unless it's the UI layer

Concatenation of strings in a loop (in C#). Seriously. It's just so easy and unless you are doing something memory intensive or awful (in which case I am sorry) it really doesn't do much harm if any.

Just learnt that some people in the access admin team intentionally back log their tickets just to tell people how busy they are.

But most request you raise in their queue doesn't get resolved unless you show up at their desks.

When my Firefox window is too narrow devRant completely shits all over itself and glitches so hard that rants cannot be scrolled anymore unless I make the window larger and go apeshit on the scrollbar until it fixes itself again.

I thought my mouse broke.

There is no such thing as a "Random Error".
Unless you are using rand() to select a random index from an array. And you forget to add - 1 to the generated index.
Now that is one hell of a random error!

DevRant is awesome, unless you use IOS … but no, it’s awesome anyway

"Untested code is broken code"

Unless deadlines are near and you're palming the project of on some other poor dev.

Me: I am your fucking senior engineer...!
Co-founder: well, I still think there's nothing wrong with creating unsolicited user accounts and sending them mails unless you can quote a word-class source

Thank you theabbie for giving your location on your devrant profile. Some devranter might be able yto meet you though it will certainly be mot me unless that is a joke. Inputting the location writen in the brackets gives a location somehwere is navi mumbai

Developed a microsite for a temporary campaign. Involves generating 1.5million promo codes on excel. Done... good luck importing it to mysql. Campaign launch is tonight while importing cant be successful unless importing 10K at a time -_-

I am implementing an API. How do I know what to do? Read the docs! Unless... there's none on the website. Asked by email and they could provide a PDF, which contains some graphics which you're free to interpret ...
Machine readable description? Nope.
How do I get to know about updates to the API? *blank stare*
