Hi client,

I am not able to login to your prod server. Can you please verify the following:

Host: x.y.x.y
Port: 1234
Username: ABCD
Password: password1234

Thanks,
My idiotic coworker

Ever had a 'why in FUCKS name would you do that?!?' moment with another programmer?

In my first study year we learned about PHP and how to write a login system. Most people would either do a 'select count(something like id) from users where username = username and password = password' or select the values based on the username/email and check if the password matches.

This guy selected everything from the table and FOREACHED the records while comparing if the username/password matched with an if within that loop.

I couldn't get him to understand how fucked up that system would become once you'd have loads and loads of users 😅

Remember my password. Forgot my username. FML

1. Create user on website.
2. Receives mail with username and password.
3. Changes password.
4. Receives mail with new password.
5. Delete account and look for another service.

I love how "minimal" devRant is.

No username, no time... just the number of likes and number of comments ..

*it's a feature not a bug*
✌(◕‿-)✌

That moment when you open devRant and

Boot up a Linux live usb on a Windows machine, then rename cmd.exe to utilman.exe and after rebooting select accessibility options which now opens a command line and then 'net user username owned' to reset user 'username' password to 'owned'. Been using this for years..

School server (Windows XP something)

Username: user
Password: pass + YEAR

Well i fucked up changing my username... Fml

Hey everyone! As most of you probably already know, months back we added the ability to change your username on devRant (every 6 months, via settings). We've had some people recently express a desire to change their username again, beforr that period, for whatever reason.

I just reset the 6 month period for everyone, so if you had changed your username previously, you can now change it again.

Please keep in mind that when you change your username, any @mentions of you in comments no longer link to your profile.

If you have any questions, feel free to let me know!

I'm sorry, why is this a problem again?

Whilst I was gaming this morning, I found A person with the username 'NullPointerException' so I imediatly typed into the chat
"catch(NullPointerException e){}"

Had a client ask me my slack username in slack...

I have pretty much told everyone at work about DevRant and everyone seems to enjoy it...

One thing i haven't told them is my username 🤣

Theres only 2 kinds of people in this world:

1. var username;
2. var user_name;

Hint: one of them will burn in hell

Great username @Why-Nobody

My school stores everyone's username and passwords (including admins) in plain text on a Windows 2007 server that they remote desktop into.

I have spent the entire night trying to debug a login function but it keeps to not work, until I discovered a typo in the username.
Good night

Just realized there is a 'Reply' button in devRant.
...
...
I always memorized the username, quit the comment window twice to spellcheck..

School online class system keeps track of every students' username and password. They are all accessible by typing passwords.txt after the address

Aww I couldn't use ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ as a username...

This was typical for me:

Yesterday evening I was installing a webserver on my Raspberry Pi for experiments with WordPress. I began some days ago, but I had to stop because the downloads took at least to long.

So I started to logi in:

Username: Raspberry
Password: Pi
-> False Password

Wondering why it is not working a tried again. Same result. After some time I remembered that I changed my password.

Username: Raspberry
Password: Ih4G2tgY*
-> false password

*example
Tried again. Still false password. Then I remembered, that I used my another standard password.

Username: Raspberry
Password: U2gra94hY*
-> false password

After that I felt a mix of angry and helplessness. After some other failed attempts I gave up.

I formatted the SD-Card and installed Raspian again.I started my Pi

Username: Raspberry
Password: Pi
-> false password

My thought: WTF, why does this not work!!

This was the moment when I got the brainwave that the Username wasn't Raspberry, it's Pi.

Username: Pi
Password: Raspberry
-> access

Then I hated myself.

I think this is the first time that my real name is available as my username 🙆‍♂️

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."

If you look at my profile, please don’t wait for my username to load because it never will

Worst error message management.

Can't you just display the valid pattern for an username instead of showing different error message everytime.

If plain ASCII and only letters and numbers same for them, just show only letters and numbers, and
what's that hourly limit.
I just couldn't sign up after wasting time thinking of an username.

Tried 'root' as the username on a Mac at the Apple Store and guess what. I was in.
Too bad Apple Geniuses aren't smart enough to update after all..

Changed my username to something other than my real name.
Realized my GitHub and website have my real name anyway.

🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

That happens when you don't add a character limit to the username xD

So, a rather unfortunate bug on the Minecraft website.

Minecraft allows you to change your name every 30 days. I was reverse engineering their API so I could use it personally.

On the username change form there are two fields: your desired username, and your password.

To protect myself from actually changing my name, I purposefully put in password123 so that it would fail. Then, I clicked "Change name" to monitor the network traffic.

Well that's when two unfortunate things combined.

#1: I used my last name to test. It's a unique word that is relatively short and very easy for me to type out of habit.

#2: That password field doesn't actually get validated.

So imagine my shock when I clicked "change username" and it WORKED.

And now my username is doxxing me for at least 30 days + the permanent name history

FUCK me

My coworker wanted to get some program from a website that requires a username/password to download. It is a utility program for controls automation. He didn't want to have to create a username/password so I said he could use mine.

I went over to his desk and read off the username to him which he entered. Then I started reading off the "password" to him:
"y o u r m o m i s a s l u t"
He got suspicious at the last few letters and then clicked on "show password" icon. He of course saw: "yourmomisaslut". At this point he just bust out laughing. I then gave him the correct password.

“Never,never, never, NEVER eat raw userinput“

Referring to stuff like “insert into foo (bar) values ($_POST[username])“

I hate it when websites send me an email showing my username along with my password!

Just changed my username to avoid being recognised by clients/colleagues...

I put both my username and password as "incorrect". So that everytime i mess up, my computer reminds me that my login is incorrect!

So I cannot complete my program because of space in my username...

Thanks for being user friendly Android Studio

I was called over by a colleague. She needed help because her computer kept telling her that she did not have permission to run certain programs or access certain files.

She logged in to Windows in front of me. The first thing that I noticed that the username was her office email address. I asked her about it.

Me: Why is your username your email address?
Her: It was this way when I got it.
Me: That is impossible. I made every Windows installation here and I always use the same username which is [companyname] as it is our policy.
Her: I'm telling you, this is the way it was when I got it.
Me: Are completely sure?
Her: Well.... someone else must have renamed it.
Me: So someone fired up your laptop, used your password to log in and changed the username to your email?
Her: I don't understand it either. Is it possible that it happened accidentally, on its own?
Me: ...

Then I explained to her that changing the username on Windows 10 may result in problems with file permissions.

I am not mad because she didn't know about this. I am mad because of her idiotic lies.

Steam have literally sent my username/password in an email. Couldn’t someone easily intercept that?

If your profile contains your GitHub username,I'm going to find you and I'm going to judge you.

What's the meaning/story/idea behind your username?

PS.- don't bother if your actual name is your username

Installed an SSD in my Linux box. Installed fresh distro, tried to log in via SSH on localhost. Didn't work. Tried like three times, turned off firewalls, restarted ssh servers, nothing.

Looked at username. Typo in username when setting things up. *facepalm*

After being a lurker for over half a year, I've finally decided to join devRant. My biggest hang up was picking an username but I finally decided to just go for it.

I make a typo in the username
"username doesn't exist"
I fix the typo and mess up the password
"incorrect password"

... I smell a potential exploit here...

Welcoming security issues like

@dfox please show if the username is available or not before submitting for change. I was just testing and look what I ended up with. 😭
#DevToBarista

Challenge: Make valid sentences using DevRant usernames as words in it. Aim for proper grammer, but don't be extra about it. Anything (😈) works, as long as the usernames are valid.

And..
Go!

P.S no binary or hexadecimal words XD

Changed my username.
Can't change it again for 6 months.
Not sure if it was a good Idea.

When you wanna join GitHub and fail at choosing a username

Hmm, considering my username...

Scored a username on the first attempt.

Think My manager is following me on this, need more anonymity @dfox need to change my username and put a balaclava on my avatar

I thought most developers were aware of the dangers of interpolating variables into strings in the context of SQL queries, but apparently some people are oblivious.

`SELECT * FROM USERS WHERE USERNAME = ${username}`

My username is ' ' OR 1=1;

Why do I have no problems writing code and designing databases, but draw a complete blank when trying to come up with a good database username for the code to use?

Explain?

Other Devs:
You can't use a meme as your github-username.
Me:

If I recognize someone by their username or remember their name.. it's usually a bad thing because they're on my mental blacklist for fucking up Production....

Ahh life in IT Ops...

I named my devrant username after my favorite thing in the entire world.

I just got sent an email after registering an account at a webshop which contained my username and password.. *sigh*

Thanks Intel

Have to use a 3rd party API which responds to all requests like

P.S. They ask for a 'userName'

Government website sends me my username and password over plain text email after I sign up...

WHAT WHY WHO LET THIS HAPPEN

I heard about this in a Hackathon.
The guy wanted to create a unique and universal username for every human.
I don't think it's feasible.
Thoughts?

Fucked up my username.

I had to make an account for my kid's school.

Last night I start. I put in a username, then it has a quality meter for the password. I put one in and it goes to like 90%. Ok, fine. I submit and...

Validation error on the username field. Message? [object Object].

Try all different kinds of username: no numbers, all caps, etc. But no luck so I give up.

Today I try again and get stuck again. Then I think... "Maybe the devs suck worse than I think..."

I change the password so that it's rated 100% and submit... Success.

Fucking devs.

I found this old printout of my username and password for my school account from ca 2008. I really like how the password are the same as the username except for some capitalization 😂😅

I suggest, if the OP comments in his/her post, the OP's username should have a red stroke (or whatever color)

When someone you know IRL knows your devRant username and went through all your posts and comments. 😳

declare @username varchar(255)
if @username is null
set @username = suser_name()

WHAT DID YOU EXPECT @USERNAME TO BE RIGHT AFTER YOU DECLARED IT???

stored username and password in a cookie .... in plaintext

*speaks from my partner's point of view*

Can we have view aliases function like in steam?
People always change their username 🤧

How secure are you passwords guys? Like specifically, along with your username.

The feeling when you realise the 4 letter username on devRant you wanted hasn't actually been taken.

what's the funniest username you encountered in devrant?
mine is @sharktits ... it's just fucking hilarious

Dev's talking about feeling bad for having no reputation on stackoverflow, meanwhile I don't even remember my username or the email I used when I signed up 😂

These dimwits emailed my receipt for my dues (not shown) AND MY USERNAME AND PASSWORD in the same PLAINTEXT UNENCRYPTED email...

Off to go write a cranky email...

When an app rejects your username for containing an underscore. It's "Fre_d" btw.

One if our users set their username as their password and publicly admitted it; he didn't understand why his password were displayed on the projector

Any geniuses out here that could think of a reason why the main MySQL user of our production servers lost it last character?

Im kinda flabbergasted. The username went from username to usernam. And I can't think of any reason why that could happen.

!HALP!

I was just messing around to find a good username. Finally I got frustrated and tried “gary”. Now I am stuck with it for at least next 6 months! HALP @dfox

About a decade ago there was a torrent site for audiobooks audiobookbay I think?, if you forgot your password to your username they would literally just give you a new password on the next page. Naturally being a 1337H4X0R teenager I found the username of one of the admins and got into their account on the site. I don't know if they ever fixed that but that was a serious wtf moment.

Edit: just checked this flaw has not been patched.

X : Do you accept space for username at sign up?

Me : Nope, no space. Username shouldn't have space.

X : Lots of people have trouble at registration because of that.

😑😑😑

Creating username / password first time - checked
Storing password in plaintext - checked
Messaging password in plain text after a password change - whaaattt????

Dumb username ✓

So many people on here have cool usernames! I could compliment every other person for their creativity. I kinda regret using my username since day one (because I already use it somewhere else). So I might change it, but first I have to come up with a new one that's witty enough and that I like :/

So what I'd like to say to all of you: Maaan you've got some really cool usernames!

Great username @stackunderflow post some rants so I can upvote you

Changed my username. This seems more appropriate.

What is the reason behind your username?

String username = "Xx_thelegend27_xX";

final Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("(xx|(_|))(?<username>\\w*)(_|(xx))", Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE);
final Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(username);

if(matcher.matches()){
this.showError(String.format("Your username cannot be that... Try: %s", matcher.group("username")));
}else {
registerOrSomething();
}

Feature suggestion!
One time username change.

No users found with username @devrant
Is it unavailable or no one ever came up with having it as username?

So, I was going to make a little startup script to a friends laptop. I opened it up to realize I didn't know the PIN (not sure why it used a PIN instead of a password, but it did).

I looked up at the username, and it was in the format [name][number]. I though, "surely, no...." and tried it.

Yup. His username was basically [username][mypassword].

*sigh*

Explain your username. Go!

You know you are one of those first elite members of devRant when you can have your first name as your username.

Dev.to app asks me to type in my github username and password into the github login page opened in their app. Is there no better way to do OAuth on Android apps?

The WiFi at my office requires username and password to sign-in and logs out after every few hours. Then I have to tap on "sign in" and submit the username and password again.

Is there any fucking way I could automate this.......?

I regret using this username...

How much trouble would you be if your boss finds out your username?

My friend always told me not to use my real name as username. I ignored him. Now I realise why.

😨

Most dreaded interview question:
What's your devRant username?

Step 1: Make an account on some website with the username "{username}"
Step 2 : Take a screenshot when the website sends you some kind of personalised email
Step 3 : Add some caption saying "lol this website is so broken!!1!1!!"
Step 4 : ???
Step 5 : profit

Ok. I've officially changed my username.

Now I'm no longer antorqs.

I have 2 log files in /var/log

I just changed my username today... And just saw this in a drama I'm watching

I run "Maltego" and impress everyone when whole tree gets generated by email/username. 😎

you know you are in some deep shit when project manager asks for username and password on dev environment

... and as bonus: IE is his default browser

Have you ever read someone code and think that you don’t know coding?

We need a pm system for devrant so we can chat and talk about ideas. Or it would be cool if you could mail to [username]@devrant.com

To everybody who has Linux in his name: LETS MAKE A LINUX GANG.

Simply write your username below this post if you want to be in :P

Our parent company wouldn’t give us DB login credentials to a customer server outside our territory... we tried the default username and password and it worked...

Can we stop that trend of only showing the username field and then show the password field after filling the username clicking next? It messes with my Keepass browser addon.
Apart from that, it messes with human workflow as well. Enter Username -> TAB -> Enter Password -> ENTER. With that stupid UI you have to either focus the next button with Tab and hope hitting Enter does not already submit the login form or switch to mouse and click the Next button.

What would you do if your boss finds out what's your devRant username? 😂

Holy fuck !!! I don't know how but I just changed my username again. Few days ago I had changed my username for some reason and thought I won't be able to change it again in future for 6 months. But booya, I got my old one back 👍, never felt so happy finding a bug.

Sometimes I see other ranters' usernames and they are so cool!. I feel bad for going with my default username.

1. A login window or form appears
2. Enter username
3. Enter p-
4. Another application STEALS THE FUCKING FOCUS
5. Enter half of the (or the whole) password in the app that stealed the focus and press Enter by mere inertia

Or this variant:

4. The username field gets autofocused
5. Enter the password in the username field, out in the clear for everyone to see

DON'T YOU STEAL ME FOCKING FOCUS MATE

Started to change my username everywhere for a more "professional" one

After a month, someone finally noticed my changed source control username.

I just leave it there.

public enum FileType {
True, False

FUCK EVERY PAGE THAT DOES NOT STRIP CLEAR TEXT INPUTS LIKE EMAIL AND USERNAME.

FFS WE LIVE IN A TIME WHERE YOU JUST HAVE TO APPEND ".strip()" TO ACHIEVE THAT

username.....

Why?

SELECT ...

WHERE ... AND 1=1;

Who is that genius at Microsoft thought about that if adding a new email to outlook on Android and credentials are wrong, CLOSE THE WINDOW AND GO BACK TO SETTINGS!!

Error message says wrong username/password then let me fucking fix them not go back and enter everything from scratch (outgoing, incoming servers, username, password)

Fuck this shit -_-

When you use the default username and password 🤪

Any better caption ?

Does anyone else have an issue with Noticed where sometimes the same username is displayed but it's actually different people?

People usually ask "Whats the story behind your username?", so, i got a new idea..

Whats the story behind your password?

When you make a goofy username but then your computer sleeps during a presentation with investors and you need to log back on.

It's so fuckin hard to find a username if your name is very common.
It irritates me everytime.

God! Got my name as username in devRant. <3
Every other website or app told me that the username was already taken!!

@Username

The best username

So, I apply for a job and they send me an automated email with my username....and my pasword....in plain text...I should use a different password for my applications....

*Thinking face* Just wondering how many users here use their hacker alias on DevRant...

Installed GNOME terminal and so went to uninstall the default XTerm as it seemed unnecessary.

Turns out removing xterm removes the entire X Window System...

I can't remember my username...

Dear Users
USERNAME@example.com and username@example.com means same thing. What the fuck is wrong with you?

Fuck you stackoverflow. You should have told me this before I changed my username. Did you expect me to know this somehow???

Last night : I am gonna change my username and profile Avatar.

This morning , after checking and clicking on the notifications.

Why the fuck did I get those notifications. I don't see where I ranted/commented. Then I realized I changed my username last night.

worst mistake? plausible
I just chose _system_ as my username, I got a feeling it will be a prime target in a case of database intrusion :/

trying to login fb
username : ...........
pass : ...................

without thinking just type that pass

error changed pass 2 year back

again try to remember same password
:(

unable to remember

just saying, NO ONE who has forgotten their username should be expected to remember their password.

have a nice day.

Hey, you can change your"fuckedup usernames"now(in case you aren't aware)

and you are done!

Thanks youtube for cat as image placeholder

Why someone would do that?

int resQ = Integer.parseInt(String.valueOf(res));
//res is int

STICKERS!!!! FUCK YEAH! Thanks @dfox and the other guy whose username I do not know!

Changed my username to 'better fit my person'

Knock Knock

Who's there?

select username from users order by last_activity desc limit 1;

@DFox @trogus found a bug- not sure how easy it will be to fix... if you change your username, mentions in rants and comments still have the old username which will be confusing for people trying to figure out who the mention is for.

Is it possible that on editing a username, all mentions in all comments and rants are renamed as well?

So, I tried to rewrite my username in a different case.

Why does devRant have to limit the username to 15 characters? Why devRant Why?

@dfox I got them. They're so cool! Love them! Thank you very much! Dunno what Tim's username so I couldn't tag him.

I wonder y slack hates upper case alphabets wanted to give my username in camelCase

Finally changed my username so I can now rant freely!!!

Just finished watching 2 episodes of the Bill Gates Netflix doc.... Wondering if maybe I should change my username... Nowhere near the genius and hard worker he seems to be...

That feeling when you debug the Users table in sql, which has a Password field encrypted with hash, but most of the demo users use the same Adminadmin password, so you recognize the other users password because you rembered the hash

Looks like someone in LinkedIn forgot to add the username.

Recently we created a Slack team with co-workers and our boss. Everybody was shocked when we saw his username. It is "armageddon". Like a fucking gamer child.

Spent hours trying to connect to a remote desktop using RDP, it was logging from win 7 but gives error with win 10.
Later, I discovered the solution was to add the computer name before the username!!!!

computername/username

There's a @Letmecode since 29 Dec, 2016, afaik he changed his handle to @Alexdelarge a month ago
If at all that account existed, the username wouldn't have been available.

Successfully implemented gradient descent in octave! Woooooo!

It's small but still tangible.
I really like that username and password both have the same character count.

Benefits of using Strings for Boolean intended logic?

I'll go first

easily implement cases before finally checking if true

generateUsername: { type: String }

if(generateUsername == 'humanReadable'){
// generate a username in a human readable format AKA yoDudeImRainbow
} else if(generateUsername == 'hash'){
// generate a username by using a random hash
} else if(generateUsername){
// generate a username by using a random hash
}

ugh the biggest turn off when i meet a girl is when her instagram username ends with .exe

I was a university student. The it company, I was interviewed at, required everyone to pass English test. I passed it with quite a good result (90 of 100, know no one with such result). So next day I had an actual interview with a head of some department.
He didn't had his own office, instead he shared it with 5 other employees. One of them was taking with someone on Skype. He told he had some work to finish, but it shouldn't take long. It took an hour.
And then he returned to me, starting asking questions about my knowledge. I am a java backend guy, but he asked me about php stuff and front-end stuff like ‘moving a button to a new position’.
Basically, this is it.

Seriously getty images, what is wrong with you. Usually it is bad enough that sign in forms say username or email and then only accept one of those two options. Getty images only allows for the username, so i enter that. Doesn't work. I use the forgot password function, have to enter username and email, doesn't work. Turns out the username is the email adress and what I entered was only the display name. Seriously, how stupid is that? What is the point of a username when you have a separate display name and just set it to the account email adress?

WTF...!!!

I really should've created a devRant account with a different username than my Twitter. Didn't know I couldn't change it later :/ (If I can please tell me how)

guess my username before opening this Rant.

comment what you got afterwards.

Dant tag the persons not to spoil them the fun of trying :P

ESSO Password Manager.
Prepare to cry after ESSO inputs your password in the username-field instead of the password-field the third time while your colleagues are watching...

How did you guys get your username? I got mine from an old game called "feudalism".

This, thankfully, I didn't create myself. A shop I recently ordered something from had the worst username / password default combo.
After registration they gave you a default Password, your zip code. And your unchangeable username is your customer id, a five digit number which just increments for each new user. And because it is a shop which is only used by people of the same region there are maybe 10 different zip codes.

Elixir/Phoenix developers, what are your opinions on Ruby/Rails and vice-versa?

Wait.. how the fuck did Jase get @Jason username?

Does that mean @Jason left dR?

Damn fuck! Another good friend I am trying to connect left the place.

A feature request -
Autocomplete suggestions when tagging someone.
It makes it so annoying to tag someone exactly how they spell their username.

So I received an email from IEEE with my account credentials in plaintext and properly labelled as username and password.

This is how my login and authentication works

Check for cookie on request

if cookie doesnot exist, send login page ( login )
1) check for credentials
2) if valid, set username's JWT as cookie
3) reload page
4) proceed for authentication

If cookie exist, decode JWT ( authentication )
1) check username
2) if username exist on database, send user panel

Anything wrong with this ?? What is the better way to do this

Seriously?! Your username is your full name... With spaces?! Pushing against the grain! Pushing against the grain...

Why there isn't a way to change username or email here? I had to delete my previous account for that.
