Who ever decided to put Stop right above Publish in the WebSphere server options list is a sadist

IBM WebSphere Integration Developer. Kill it. Kill it with fire.

You know what a fucking good place for 1000s of mp4s, pdfs, doc files, exes and svgs is? Yeah, the bloddy SVN,which mirrors to git.
And how about a ibm websphere install zip with tiny 1.3gb?
And of cause you store your fuckin perl and Shellscripts, that have been written by a plain lunatic and that are responsible for installing the crap in the repo.
What? One repo for one component? Nah, cramp like 150 different projects into on repo.
And the most important scripts have to be kept unversionized ... For reasons.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg of shit.
Btw. websphere ships its own apache2.2 and its own security lib and its own openssl compilation, with ibm java ... Filesystem hierarchy standard? Dafuq? If you want to find something it better be like where is waldo - right, IBM? And command arguements? Man pages, usable documentation, usable deployment? How did any of this ever seem like a good idea to anyone?
Go get a koloscopy with a submarine periscope, IBM.

Websphere...what a piece of shit! IBM, you really should be embarrassed. Dependency injections stops working when the injected bean is in another jar (even though it's on the class path). Works great in JBoss.

Seriously IBM...go out of business already. You are a joke and your products have never been good.

I know this is the second rant on a row about this, but I really need to hear someone saying that IBM enterprise software sucks. Nothing works, everything heavy and slow as fuck, documentation doesn't exist, official developer's forum gives me an error on login, many IBM official pages give me a 500 internal error. And, in the end, this costed as hundreds of thousands of euro. Seriously?

Using IBM WCS (WebSphere Commerce) and our custom css theme has a !important after every single line 👌

"If your ops team insists on running WebSphere, tell them to call my grandparents! They can help." 🤐

So IBM finally jettisoned the cancer that was Virginia Rometty a few weeks back. They had an opportunity to move fresh blood and solid managerial background into the top slot with Jim Whitehurst (Redhat) and try and recover their flagging market share and do some sane business strategy. They passed on that opportunity and instead appointed the old guard bootlicker who overpaid for Redhat to the tune of 20x what it was worth, and signalled their intent to continue staying the course of the Titanic and it's slow inevitable trek towards the bottom of the ocean. The board wants a yes man, and they got one.

This is basically what I assumed would happen, but I have some other predications as well:

- Whitehurst will leave to a better company
- the redhatters that haven't already left will be replaced with commodity labor
- Redhat will be the least stable Linux offering 2 years after the last hatter leaves
- they will sell off most of their existing software assets to HCL/ similar consulting partners like they did with domino and websphere to stem the bleed
- the displaced in that move will either quit or be replaced
- their cloud initiative will collapse under the weight of its own stagnation and glacial pace of development
- they will attempt to salve these wounds by moving focus to global services, reducing profit loss by cutting salary costs, further diluting their eroding ability to innovate
- they'll buy at least one other trendy software company at ridiculous valuation, and sell it off within 2 years at a massive loss
- the CEO slot will start to resemble the late Roman empire with a new CEO every other week
- Redhat assets will be sold to Google inside of 5 years

Last prediction: I will be overjoyed being able to witness the death of IBM in my lifetime. Fuck them 🍻

IBM Websphere Application Server... the fact that that needs to be install for other middleware to run makes me irrate my balls with a grinder...

IBM Websphere stack (Rational, Portal, etc)...I had to use it in my first job in a bank. A very disgusting pack of shit software...From these days i hate IBM with passion.

Me: there seems to be a problem in the Web Sphere app server...I would recommend u change it to weblogic

Client( IT division head of his company): is it compatible with websphere soap..??

Me: soap is generic, websphere is just an app server

Client: no but we have been told to use only websphere soap, is weblogic having that..??

Me: soap is protocol, app server is changeable..

Client: no we want only websphere soap.

Me:....(trying to find the nearest exit)

Who from fucking IBM thought that implementing hundreds of Constants for MQ WebSphere was a fucking Good idea, when half of them can't even be used with pcf. Even when they would be usable their Documentation is like horse shit you can't find anything in there without spending half of the day looking for an explanation.

I FUCKING HATE WEBSPHERE.

That's it.

The CTO of the company which released Websphere has the audacity of talking about simplifying deployment ecosystem.

I just found out how to make Websphere suck less. You just go into Application Servers -> (server name) -> Web Container -> Custom Properties and add this property:

com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.stopSucking

And then set it to "true".

Why the fuck did I start installing WebSphere less than an hour before I want to leave?

If IBM makes a product of something we use, we get it, ClearCase, ClearQuest, message broker, websphere, rational team concert, jazz source control... And a skinned version of eclipse

Oh how wonderful is to update an Angular project from 2.4 and trying to reach 8, only to have everything broken by Angular 6 and PrimeNG 6.

And what's best is when your boss tells you that you will have to later create the entire project from scratch using Vue.js and having it run in WebSphere, whilst upgrading the current Angular project.

TwT

btw, if anyone has any guides or tips on starting a Vue.js project with Spring as the back-end I would really appreciate it!! ^^_

Watch, as I deftly make something not really related to coding BE related to coding...

I finally found something more frustrating to get working properly than WebSphere:

A 3D printer.

I'm probabaly 50/50 at this point with succesful prints, and the successes are just okay quality.

It's my first 3D printer so I'm learning a lot, which is the up-side. But damn, very frustrating at the same time.

Oh yeah, and of course: fuck WebSphere. SSSOOO glad I don't have to deal with that anymore!

Websphere

Here's my opening rant. Websphere Application Server...when restarting your JVM takes so long it should have its own epic on the task board.

#ThingsToDoWhileWASRestarts

Does someone use IBM WCM? Opinions?

When WebSphere server makes it passed 23% and freezes at 100%. Sigh
