I usually don't post such things, but the Flat Earth Society just replied to @iamdevloper on Twitter!
What a legend haha

I usually prefer the single slit design for pen testing personally

Friendly reminder for travalers:

You can usually reset your free WiFi time at airport networks by clearing cookies :)

I have my own secret script hidden in a /batcave dir on the production servers. It fixes everything the other devs usually manage to screw up.
I call it Batman.bat

Whenever the PM is pushing us to work "extra hard" on projects I usually drop this in the company slack channel 😁

Don't usually re-post but this....

I always forget to commit my changes and then when someone reminds me, I usually commit 1 weeks work in one single commit.

Been watching a lot of lectures on YouTube. They usually talk too slow.

I usually don’t use caps so I apologize but.... HOLY FUCKING SHIT! MY PERSONAL BUSINESS THAT I BUILT WITH My HANDS HAS JUST SIGNED A ****HUGE**** contract!! More to come!

I don't usually post memes, but this one is just a little too on the nose.

Well, here we go I guess. Slightly cleaned up but it's usually in this state. If you have questions, ask away!

When you start to get frustrated during testing and stop using "foobar"...

(Usually it get more vulgar the more frustrated you are)

Everytime they force me to add and test stupid features. I usually end up making my own version, which they dump almost every time.

I usually end up sending my messages in person

How do I usually make a typo?
10%: I punch a wrong key on the keyboard.
90%: I do everything right and get auto "corrected".

I prefer the best ones. The worst ones usually aren't very good.

Huehuehue (even tho it usually is the case)

Before demo times I usually lost my tempure

I am someone that usually does stuff that is not required and afterwards regret it, but this is next level!

My little cellar room 🤗
(Usually much more messy than that, just cleaned up a bit for the photo)

Apple, I usually enjoy your products, but REALLY?!?! Why didn’t you design a mouse to be used while it’s charging?!?

"Have you ever been in a conflict?"

Yes and it usually is resolved by deleting files then recloning

Ummm ..
I'm a PHP dev.
I still accept WordPress Websites.
I usually use bootstrap but haven't tried 4.0 yet.
I occasionally touch jQuery.

:3 still wanna hear my disappointment stories?

Tutanota (encrypted email service) has a newly designed interface.

I usually don't give a crap about design.

It's so beautiful 😍

I think I'm in love 😱

Hey, um, Windows, I did that.
I usually like Windows, but this, I don't. Linux is in my future!

Every time I mess up my git branch I usually find that its pretty futile to fix it with fancy commands like 'git reset', 'git prune', 'git rebase', etc. I usually find it easier to just start over from scratch.

They should really add a command for that

'git fuck-it-start-over'

Woke up 2hours before wife n daughter usually awake so I can code!.....daughter wakes up 10mins later 😑

Usually I don't repost but this deserves it.

Well some meetings usually go on like this...

I have a theory:

People who have the longest updates in standup are usually the ones who accomplished the least.

There are usually two kinds of Linux manuals...

Just spotted at my local book store 😂

I don't always talk to myself, but when I do, it's usually when presenting a demo to a client.

The first time I see a train info thing running on linux. Usually they run on windows Xp. Feat. my green shirt.

They aren't guitar strings. They're usually made of metal.

They're guitar wires.

Almost all software that your university recommends to you to use. Usually it's outdated, slow, or with horrible interface.

I usually have a pen and notebook at my table while coding, to scribble while I'm figuring out stuff. Anyone else does this?

Fuck public transportation. Seriously. It's usually disgusting, too hot, too cold, to expensive and not customer Friendly.

Usually I avoid asking questions on stackoverflow but when I do I'm downvoted to oblivion..

Not really a rant but I'm just happy so I must share it.

Two days ago I uploaded a new project on github and today when I woke up I saw it on github trending! Only the C# section though, but still.

Feels weird as I'm usually not upload anything and the ones I have usually sit around 5-20 stars forever.

At my school. This "infoscreen" usually shows ads :P

I don't usually post memes, but this one was pretty good

The computer is mightier than the pen, the sword, and usually, the programmer.

usually this happen to me around at 3 or 4 am... 😢

Dev slump.

For me dev slump is usually feeling overwhelmed and that leads to being unmotivated.

My solution usually involves, go slow, way slower than usual. "Make function... that takes a thing. well that worked..." rather than try to think of everything at once.

Also get some easy tasks broken out and do those (even unrelated). That tends to get me going, feeling productive, then I start to approach the harder stuff that was maybe more demoralizing.

I find it annoying how Microsoft only lets you have 12 hours maximum as your active hours, I'm usually on my laptop for more that 12 hours

Plan before you start a project (write pseudocode, draw a small diagram, research other implementations, etc). Without a plan, those projects are usually the ones that turn out unfinished.

"I usually just stop being stuck and be awesome instead. "

And that kids, is how I met your mother.

When a random recruiter texts you an irrelevant job posting instead of spamming your voicemail or email like they usually do...

Production doesn't usually have any big problems until 4:30 on Friday.

The way usually it ends when I spend all the night writing some code.

meSsetup -- I usually work remote, but when you are at the clients office, you have to customize.

Age isn't a number.
It's a variable that stores a number.
(Usually)

Yes. I am growing older and sillier 😂. But you don't know me 😅.

When I slice the head off a list I usually call the rest decapitated.

const [head, ...decapitated] = myList

Please fix this @dfox :<

When opening devRant after having my phone locked for awhile, the app freezes for 30-180 sec. It usually recovers, but not always. It's painful 🙁

Interviewer: Do you use object-oriented methodology?
Me: (Do I need to elaborate it if I say yes?) Usually I do.
Interviewer: Em. I see.
#End of story.

Pressing that “deploy to production” button when it usually consists of multiple projects and databases updating at once.

Maybe I should look at separating them one year.

I usually burn my self out when want to finish personal projects.

My gf (she is a dev too) gets mad at me, cause i ask for her help and it usually ends up as plain rubberducking...

Not my fault!

!dev

Damn, does it ever feel good to back in the gym.

Feels good to be taking care of the body as much as I usually do the mind.

Dev memes usually make me cringe. It's like the people who make them are trying too hard; the lack of social skills just jumps off the screen.

"This pub is famous for its pork dishes. And I usually buy liquor from that stop, quality approved."

- one dev friend

// said "best advice"
// not "best dev advice"

When someone asks me what is programming, I usually say:

— That's something like assembling Lego, but you also get paid for it.

Also usually works with a manager of your choice

if (stuck && coworker_near){
me.explainProblem(coworker);
// tl;dr
}
else {
me.pzizzPowerNap(20);
}

This usually works for me.
(FYI : Pzizz is a free app for Android/iOS)

Usually hangs out by my laptop. Very blamable for typos and such.

When clients say "I want this done in Wordpress" my stock answer (usually just in my mind) is "Do you mean Turdpress?"

I usually read rants while using public transport. What is the probability that the person about whom I'm reading is sitting right beside me!

Every time I see this my heart starts beating like crazy, I'm filled with joy and hope and I feel like living my life right. Like in the Christmas morning.

Usually, this feeling lasts until I click on the notification. After clicking on it all these feelings are usually replaced with despair, frustration and sometimes even anger.

Dunno. Usually don't get PMS

Just noticed:
In every programming language, your first goal usually is to write "Hello World".

Except for php. There "phpinfo();" is the equivalent of that.

what do you usually eat when you're broke asf?

"We updated our privacy policy"

-expression, english. Usually used in place of "we gave zero shits about our users privacy" or "we str8 up boolin on u lol".

I usually get along best with people that don’t get along well with people.

Well then.

Thank you devRant for the 2x sticker combo!! :) ( Usually it's just 3 stickers I think)

It's time to spread the word! :D

Hello DevRant !
I happened to find DevRant by chance.
I would usually go find a random guy in office and rant but now I found this !
Great being here !

How do you usually learn a new language?
My way is to start a project, then figure it out as I go.

I find that books and tutorials are usually better reserved for learning concepts or frameworks.

Doing Arduino in school, well normally i code in java/php.
But its better than the stuff, we usually do here😊

Programming people usually leave to me, but when it comes to ui everyone appears to be an expert.

9 hours into a *serious call*... "hey team, let's try the thing *taylorviktorya * suggested 15 minutes in"

Without fail. Usually, it's check spelling, semicolons, and syntax.

@dfox what are your plans for devRant? Usually such communities get way out of hand with spam as it grows beyond a certain level? How will you keep devRant safe?

I usually never had like a serious fight with a other dev I have a really good team but occasionally when I do this is my response. 🙂

It's actually quite sad, but this is usually me 😅

Listening to music, lying facedown on my bed with my eyes closed. After a long day, I usually can't look at any electronic screens.

I don't usually curse, but I find myself frequently cursing and giving the finger to my code.

When looking something up, I generally try to avoid StackOverflow answers and find actual documentation, since SO answers are usually outdated.

How long can you code continuously without any break? Occasionally I can code for hours but usually I need frequent little breaks. :/

I usually use cumsum

Reading Medium articles usually leaves me with more doubts than answers.

Never got one, i usually give advice 😞

I have a job interview tomorrow at 02:00 p.m. It's 04:00 a.m. right now and I usually sleep at 07:30 a.m. and wake up at sunset... GREAT.

In the very rare occasion that I boot into windows instead of linux is when I want to use Photoshop to edit some photos - usually works fine. USUALLY. I now see why everyone complains about windows updates

My "travel jar", where I usually store boarding passes, tickets and memories from my journeys...

Shower thoughts:

Golf may be the perfect Dev sport.

Arguments for:

- Takes a relative degree of either skill or patience, usually both
- most people suck at it
- you need to practice
- alcohol
- haters gon hate

Arguments against:

- Takes a relative degree of either skill or patience, usually both
- most people suck at it
- you need to practice
- alcohol
- haters gon hate
- you have to be outside

Also applies to musicianship, I guess.

Be honest.

How many hours of your work day do you do real work?

Right now, I am at about 7/8.
Usually about 5/8.

I love learning new things, but as I don't use them usually, I forgot them over time. It makes me so sad.

So my college is writing a desktop app (usually my domain), and he doesn't want to do internationalisation because of time constraints. HARD CODED STRINGS EVERYWHERE!

The smartest person in the room is usually the person who knows how to tap in to the intelligence of every person in the room.

When a dev says that he's a really good programmer in his CV/Résumé he usually actually means that he's really good at browsing stackoverflow

This is driving me nuts. Anyone know of this malware or whatever shit it is? Every now and then ads pop up. Usually in the launcher, but sometimes also in other apps. It'd be nice to get rid of... Usually when I look in the activity manager theres nothing, but this time I managed to capture it.

My first rant! Hi everyone:
When stuck, a little nap (20 min or so) and a cup of coffee (3 or 4 liters 😂) usually do the trick.

what do you usually charge for an average website? 🙂

I don't run git init until i have a mvp usually.

So fellow devs , what do you usually eat/drink while coding ?

"I still fight with git a lot, but now I usually win."

Bugs usually come through windows! Always keep 'em closed!

"shut the fuck up dumb whore" usually works

I don't usually put comment in my code. But when I do, it's not relevant anymore.

Usually I'd go grab a smoke and coffee and think up a solution while smoking.
I quit smoking 2 weeks ago, no idea how to fix it now.

Anyone else get quite burnt out even after, like, 4 hours of programming? I usually feel like a zombie and can't think properly. Will this eventually stop happening?

Comitting a code is like comitting a crime,
There is a chance it will make something better, but it usually fucks everything up.

Entered into my friends phone using safe mode to unlock his phone.(he usually trusts 3rd party app lockers)

The moment when a job application process that usually takes 3 weeks, is ongoing for months thanks to COVID

I usually boot into my terminal-only linux so there are no games to distract me

What's the very first thing you usually do when you notice your browser tell you that there is no connection?

Be sincerely (+_+)

I'm 100% an asshole. Unfortunately I'm also usually right.

When I see bullshit mostly about tech-related stuff, I usually imagine myself doing this. It makes me happy and in some situations almost tolerant to idiotism.

Why can my password only be 20 characters for fucks sake

I usually generate pws of 70 characters and now for some reason it can't be longer than 20

I don't usually look at the clock in my computer, but when I do, it say 420

I don't always talk to myself, but when i do, it is usually writing very complicated code.

I haven't seen this before, but hey, Google Play has instant play! Isn't that usually a 5G thing?

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

Whats the story behind your password?

Sleep.

Usually, after sleeping, the clearing of the mind opens up a lot of possibilities and more often than not, a solution comes quickly after. Happens to me all the time.

I don't usually get nervous about anything, but the interview I have today is for the job I really want. Hope I get it.

At what time of the day do you usually post on devRant? I'm just curious

Doing home office today, so I started to work 1 hour and a half earlier than usually. Where is my daylight, Munich?!?!

Do you guys usually hear music during coding sessions? Or just put up that headphones without plugging it just to concentrate on the lines??

I like to live on the edge ;)

But seriously, i should fix this. The load is usually around 200 - 5k queries / s

I ate pizza yesterday. A very different configuration than I usually go for.

WORST. MISTAKE. OF. MY. FUCKING. LIFE.

When one of your tests breaks, do you rewrite the test, or the code?

Usually I rewrote the test.

Usually at the end of meetings I always ask "May I go and work now?"

Me reviewing PRs lately:
"Should I fight it now, or should I let the abscess grow?"
——
But in my distress/demotivation it’s usually: peace now, pain later

"Money is usually attracted, not pursued. " - Jim Rohn

How do I avoid carpal tunnel? Simple: my school bag (it's a laptop bag) usually has like 3 laptops in it plus miscellany tools and such, making it over 100 pounds usually. I also don't use a strap, so it's hand-hold only. It also helps train grip strength!

Usually websites:
- wrong password -> Password field cleared and focused again

Apple websites:
- wrong password -> Password field cleared and email field focused again and password field hidden because fuck you!

I dream about discovering weird side effects on certain built-in functions way too often.
I usually implement those myself but without side effects. All in the dream.

Not leaning on unit tests. I usually write them after testing my code manually, and lose time for testing feature by hand.

Are retros and reviews usually 2 hours long? 🚩🚩

"When developers encounter confusion, they usually blame the language instead of their lack of understanding."

I love this. It's from the You Don't Know JS Book Series that I'm reading.

Why do io-interfaces usually use a signed integer to return the number of bytes processed?
Like seriously, you literally can't write/read less than 0 bytes.

Any new cryptocurrency or blockchain network usually has a better front-end UI than its white paper.

I'm hybrid.
Usually left but for css I use right. Dunno ^^

which one are you?

I usually never put stickers on my laptop, as they usually fade away and leave nasty residue after a while, therefore I fucking hate having discovered stickermule, I have right now ~100$ worth of stickers favorited, I really have to hold back to not just pull the trigger on them and finally smash my laptop full of them, including my devrant stickers, that have been laying here for a long time now. 😫

How I usually think about Laravel

what usually takes 2 minutes max now takes ages! Welcome to Gradle ...

When do you guys commit? Genuinely curious. I usually commit at the end of the day detailing all I did. What about you?

My system needs 2 gb of RAM when 4 gb is installed and 6,5 GB when 16 GB is installed. Any ideas? Running idle system, just everything I usually use.

Take the worst possible estimate you can come up with. Multiply by 3.

Usually ends up pretty close in my case at least.

I usually don't like frontend but dammit, I'm in love with Less.
It's so painless, compared to plain CSS.

I usually watch the movie 'Social Network' .

I usually hate fixing other dev's code.

What's your most trusted computer part manufacturer list? Personally, it goes something like this:

CPU: AMD. They're performing at or above Intel's spec, without the weekly IME holes. Sometimes cost a little more, but they last way longer.

GPU: AMD, ASUS, MSI. MSI is usually over-priced but performs a smidge better, ASUS is usually a good middle-ground. Anything with an AMD chipset's usually gonna hold together fairly well, though, and won't require massively-unstable closed-source drivers for decent Linux performance. "but muh cuda" doesn't fly when OpenCL is actually, well, open.

Storage: Seagate, obviously, and SanDisk for cheap SSDs. SanDisk SSDs, especially their cheapest ones, are durable as shit for price. As for the Seagate pick... is that not self-explanatory?

Mobo: ASUS, ASRock if you need garbage in a pinch. ASUS boards are usually fairly tough, and ASRock is cheap trash for that backup tower that's gone bad in the closet.

PSU: EVGA, accept no substitute. EVGA PSUs are durable as fuck and fairly cheap, compared to other "ultra-durable" brands.

Ok guys just curious what time do you usually sleep and wake up? I usually sleep around 11pm or 12am and wake up 5:30am. I need to fix this

Netcup. Great hosting, the machines are usually fast set up and cheap. The boss writes in the forum to help the customers.

I've come to realize that when I get annoyed, it's usually because my lack of tolerance that is the problem. Annoying co workers is the perfect self improvement tool.

Used to be anime, but now I just have a tendency to hoard files (usually movies/shows)...just in case streaming services go down.

Worst experience with new job?

I haven't had any good experience with a new job to begin with. After the interview, it's usually only downhill from there.

I usually avoid procrastination by turning off my phone, not going on social networks or YouTube and by setting some goals to achieve in a day.

I usually click 30 times before I'm able to ++ a comment/rant by double clicking
I mean, it's called double, double click 😂👍

How many hours do you guys usually sleep everyday?

rant == false && help == true
I usually don't like posting non rant stuff here but I need help.
How do you usually design your service communication class?

I am working on a mobile app which contains talking to a REST service, I usually put all network calls in one class. Down side if it becomes a big class it becomes a pain to maintain. Any thoughts?

For a backend service I usually go with Repository design and it is working out well for me. But for mobile Apps I'd like to see if there is a better approach

How the hell does a query that usually takes ~500ms to run now magically takes 2.5h! What changed in 30mins URGHH

!rant
What can you expect to earn at your first IT/dev job in your country (e.g. junior dev after graduating)?

What do seniors usually get?

I usually reformat, or completely remake, my team's work... Is it too bad?

Nobody asks about your education because you have to self-educate to pass an interview.

Usually, you work for a foreign company. And usually, you pay small taxes because you're not counted as an employee.

You pay lots of money to volunteers helping your country's army. I think every volunteer knows IT-workers help the army a lot. Though others help too, more or less.

It's incredible how many sites don't check / handle localStorage permissions.. they usually just completely break.

That is they use a div to block the view despite the page usually still working ..

There literally is an API to check for permissions..

Go eat somewhere far from code, I usually come back with a solution

Going to participate at my first hackathon on friday. :)
Do you usually prepare in advance? Like setting up a virtual server with lamp or anything?

windows has decided that today I'm not using my mouse, which is odd because it usually works in one of the three USB ports... Everything about that sentence makes me sad...

Saw a rant on proverbs and thought of one,
The customer who is always right is most usually wrong.

*sigh*

I can usually understand why something works in some way but WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THIS??!!!

Display:table, display: table-cell, and vertical-align: middle....

(Usually in footers)

I shot myself in the foot again!!

These incident usually happen at restless night.

Some night I become too restless so I do what any programmer would do, I program.

The "novel" idea just come up and I code until I become too tired. I usually finish the prototype of the project before I fell asleep.

I usually found out that I have reinvent the wheel the next morning! Great. My "novel" idea is not too "novel" after all.

It is hard to find the novel project these day since it is too hard to beat the decade of collective intelligence of programmer.

Usually I play some focus music, say "let's do this!" to my devduck (Dave), and start working on stuff. Oh, and lots of coffee.

Never stop improving. Also, the quick and easy option isn't usually the right one.

"When we think of design, we usually imagine things that are chosen because they are designed. Vases or comic books or architecture…" - Seth Godin

I usually use external monitors. After I disconnect all monitors, why do some applications pretend it's monitor is still connected and appear outside the main screen?

My writing is so bad that usually I'm the only one that understands it

My excuse is that as a programmer I won't be writing by hand that much

Does devRant randomly crash for anyone else? I’ve noticed it usually crashes when I open a post but I haven’t been able to specify anything more than that

When my parents come into my rooms I usually open hackertyper.com and start typing. They think I am a genius of informatics, while I just use pc for gaming and porn.

Working at a startup with a small (~4-6) person engineering team usually means those few people are the most in tune with the software. This then usually leads to an onslaught of people who should know better asking devs stupid questions about the software or relying on the devs to do their jobs for them.

Have you encountered these types of situations before? How were they resolved?

I usually hate Microsoft but they've gotten me positively surprised several times lately. I can run an SSH server and Redis just like that!

"A lot of companies have tried to support designers by giving them 'a seat at the table.' What this usually means in practice, however, is that a designer is sitting at the table well after the important product decisions that influence the design have been made. This is usually where complicated and muddy designs are born. " - Rebekah Cox

I literally recall all my achievements and remind myself of my consequences.
Usually does the trick.

Usually other people’s projects

Do you take naps?
I usually take a 20~30 minute nap at around 3 p.m.

This morning, I realized that my most productive moments for work usually happen at home, working overtime. :/

Algo question: Tree data structures while drawn as Nodes with children, are usually better implemented with (resizable) arrays?

Anything from the adobe creative cloud. The background updates are usually at the worst times

I don't usually do tech support stuff... But when I do, I regret doing so.

Not usually one to repost memes, but this is just far too relatable.

why is this allowed

usually it installs in a bootloader env

I basically hate anything that IDEs aren't smart to fix typos.

- JavaScript, but usually not TypeScript
- Python
- SQL, mostly.

How do you choose the hostnames for your systems?
I usually name them after AIs from series, movies,games.

Random tip of the day.
Putting salt on your food will usually help it taste less bland.

Usually i insult god a lot

!rant
Besides devrant podcast, which good podcasts you guys usually listen to?

I usually listen to:
Adventures in angular
Javascript jabber
Software engineering daily
DotNetRocks

I think I'm balding where my headphones usually sit...

Still not gonna change to those god awful in-ear ones though !

It usually starts with a project, a CI pipeline, unit tests, deployment guidelines, and wait - oh crap - what am I building again?

When people are coding and adding hard blank spaces instead of normal spaces. Usually because of copy paste from Internet. Oh, the joy.

I usually have some kind of ambient music running in the background like Noisli...Helps me focus better...

Usually when listening to music I have on my main Spotify playlist (using headphones), after a good 7-8h sleep followed by a good breakfast.
It's usually better when:
- there's no one around to interrupt me,
- I know what I'm going to do and
- no distracting noise.

What kind of music do you guys listen to while coding?

For some weird reason my concentration increases while listening to pop, which I usually hate.

Do you work at night or at daytime?
When do you wake up usually?

What is your goto style of music? What is your empowering 'lets do this' or " I'm in the zone" thing?

For me I have a collection of various genres of music I've collected over time and I slap together several songs at the days start and get going.
Usually I end up looping a single high energy song all day (rock usually. Especially older rock)
