*click "Empty Recycle Bin"*
*removing 134.389 files. Time remaining: about 15 minutes*
Me: What the fuck is happening?!
*open Recycle Bin*
*see there is 3 node_modules folder*
Me: oh, okay sorry. Thats pretty normal.

Duplex: Hi, Umm... Can I book 3 seats on Wednesday?

Restaurant: Sure! And what time is it?

Duplex: Yeah, Oh, I'd like it at NullPointer Exception if it's possible.

Restaurant: Invalid parameter "NullPointer Exception" restarting program...

You have done a great job!! Thanks for delivering the project on time. It is exactly what I asked for. I will ask for no changes and I will pay you right away.

Said no client ever.

Dev: what do I call this file ?
Me: just name it something meaningful so other dev's know what it is

Two days pass

Me: time to do code review .. oh look a new file ..

Git comment : new file for sax parsing , architecture gave the ok.

File name : SomethingMeaningful.java

Last night I caught my girlfriend on my phone.....
Reading devRant..
I asked her what she was doing, she replied "I wanted to see what you spend all your time reading, some of this is actually pretty funny.."

This is what happens every time I look at Microsoft’s C# docs after someone tells me to

What happens when is debugging time.

This is the first time an IDE has apologized to me.
PS: Dev notes, crash reports etc are excluded. This is the IDE saying sorry I can't do it, no matter what.

boss: What the fuck guys! Why didn't you go to the meeting this morning? Have you checked your google calendar?
me: But, but it is scheduled to tomorrow, google calendar says that.
boss: Who put that date?
me: You
boss:....
boss:And fo you double checked it?
me: What do you mean?
boss: Double check! Check if what is in the google calendar is correct!
me: But that doesn't make any sense.
boss: No excuses!! Next time you must double check!

When interviewing a dev, ask them what they think about time zones. If their answer is "fuck time zones", hire them immediately.

Notepad++: An update package is available, do you want to download it?

Me: Maybe next time

Notepad++: Sure, that's what they all say

I just spent 3 HOURS(!!!) on coding a program that simply DRAWS A HILLS LANDSCAPE and this is what I got. 3h of wasted time.

If you are copy pasting code from somewhere else, spend some time and effort to understand what that piece of code is actually doing, and how much of your requirement does it satisfy.

Time is constant after all. Yes it's from production.

Boss: Have you finished that feature?
Me: Almost there, i'm refactoring some classes...
Boss: What? Refactor? But thisnis a new feature, it does not need refactor! We don't have time for this!
Me: 😵🔫

This is what happen when you care about code quality.

(don't mind the first sentence of the img)

This is what i tell my debugger each time i run an application...

To the people saying "I need to reduce my keystrokes" when they are asked why they omit semicolon's;

It is a common delusion thinking that we spend most of our time typing, when in reality we spend most of our time gazing into the abyss thinking to ourselves "oh my god what have I done".

Anything that decreases your typing time but increases your time in the abyss is a terrible tradeoff.

- D. Crockford

I once ran into a CAPTCHA that was hard coded with a simple math problem. Every time it asked what 5 + 1 is.

Feedback from a client

-"It doesn't work! I want this solved immediately! "
- What? Which of the 20 views? Can you be more specific?

... 5 hors later (and lot of wasted time debugging) ...

-"I mean, this button is not aligned."

What the fuck is this. I swear every time I look at this codebase I find something more stupid than I did last time.

I can't wait to throw the whole legacy system away.

If it were possible to send messages back in time, this is what I’d tell myself

HOW IS IT AUGUST 1 RIGHT NOW

2019 ENDS SOON BUT IT STARTED LIKE YESTERDAY

WHAT IS HAPPENI

WHY IS TIME GETTING FASTER THE OLDER YOU GET?

JUST FCK OFF THIS IS NOT NORMAL

I GOTTA HURRY TF UP AND DO SOME SHIT WITH MY LIFE BEFORE TIME RUNS OUT☠️☠️☠️💨💨🌬

12 - 1pm is lunch time. What the hell is it with this team and arranging meetings for this time, does nobody eat?

*Propose new time*

Justification: ... i'm fucking hungry

Me being an Intern about 3 Months ago (first time)

"What is that?"
"What? How?"
"*Being clueless sometime*"
"*Google's tons of shit*"
"Im so confused"

For about 9 hours...

What is your "up time" record

{Context: English is not my native language}

The first time my code get a review ( by my boss that time)

Boss: Your code is full of butts 🍑

Me: Eh, What?

Boss: *showing his screen* see that? variables names: validateButt, contactButt, seeMoreButt..

Me: *interrupting him* oh, I mean button.

Boss: I know, just being sarcastic, but it'll be better to get another suffix.

Me: 😐

Google Duplex: "Hi! Uhm.. I'd like to make a dinner reservation for 3."

Restaurant: "Internal Exception: Invalid parameter not satisfying: time"

Btw, hi devRant, this is my first post!!

True fact!

Had my practical exam yesterday on Data Structures using C.
Had included this in my code
if(!count)
break;

Examiner: What type is count?
Me: Sir, it's an integer.
Then he asked me what was not expected.
Examiner: What does this exclamatory mark do?
In my mind: Now's the right time for the world to end. 😛

What if I've been wrong all the time?

What if everyone else is correct and I'm the one who is raging all the time?

What if I'm annoying you everyone?

What if I'm a very bad developer that everyone hates?

*social anxiety intensifies*

best friend works at a gym, and he always remind me to exercise.

him: bro when was the last time you workout?
me: every fucking day.
him: what?
me: I am a programmer bro, everyday is brain day.

Our PM is on vacation. And our CTO/CEO takes control of the PM role.

So today he decided it was time to just start a customer change request. Regardless of the customer not having approved the actual solution and estimate.

He just said that he did not want to waste any more time talking to the customer. Now they are gonna get what ever he thinks they want.

I predict this to backfire in a fabulous way. What could possible go wrong🤔

I need to explain to a client how pc work. I use this image. Now every time my client explain what a pc is start talking with "it worked like a WC"... What I have done?

🙄 Windows asked me to install the update thrice. I asked it to remind me later. The fourth time it just shut my system down and started updating..

This is what you call a constructive and understanding OS-User relationship 🌝

My son is taking a nap and you know what that means - time to write some code!

Talked to long time friend a while back.
I think he freelances now and does some kind of web design stuff.

He said, he hates java, and I asked what he hates about it:

" Those stupid variable types, I only use VAR in PHP to get around that stupid stuff. And what is this Oop anyway?".

😵 Dude? The fuck?

What is the longest time you spent for a single bug fix?

3 days and going here, this piece of shit doesn't seem to reveal itself until I go bald and be a psychopath. 😲

Just tested my GPU code vs my non-GPU code.

Its a simple game of life implementation. My test is on a 80 x 40 grid running for 100,000 cycles.

The normal code took 117 seconds.
The CUDA code took 2 seconds.

Holy fuck this is terrifying.

WHAT THE JESUS CHRIST’S ASS FUCK?

Is this a fucking slider system for time? Never thought about just having fucking text inputs formatted for time?

Why Lansweeper? WHY?

If I find the guy who designed that, I rip his fucking mouse, just to see how the fuck will he set his fucking time.

Is it me or doing forty minutes standup meetings every morning is a complete waste of everyone's time? I don't need to explain what is Kubernetes and how to install it to my boss...

First time ever implementing an Android app from scratch (coming from C++ but also worked with C# and Python): WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SHIT???

"Shouldn't be a problem. I can get <insert new feature here> implemented by <insert wildly optimistic time>. "

What is wrong with me?! Why do I keep doing this!?

Someone asked me what a full stack dev is... I replied:

"A highly sought after programmer with the world of opportunities and no time to pursue them."

I think I nailed it.

So this is how they "teach" us in school...As a part time dev I was completely shocked when I saw this in our materials. What do you think? Should I drop the teachers tables to give him a lesson?

Whenever someone gets rejected for a dev job and the recruiter/HR person says "Our team just feels you are a bit too junior for the position at this time".. what they're actually saying is "We, as a company, are just not willing to invest any time or resources into training or helping you grow professionally."

"Lightweight rant"

Good job, devs of Sparkasse.
Time to "jobn't" y'all.
That error message is very informational.

I know it is because of the time counter being at 0 and I need to relogin to reset it, but what if I was a regular dumb client? To add more salt into it, what if I was someone in his 90s.

Do your fucking job properly.

Edit: The error message translates to "Error", "Error" and "Close"

I JUST GOT AN OFFER. God has blessed me. I also found out I have cancer a couple weeks ago. What a confusing time this is lol.

Y’all know what time it is: Happy valentine
🥰🥰

I like being self taught because I can work at my own pace and try different languages to see what interests me most. But so many of these tutorials are just shit. Or the content is good and the instructor is shit. I may need to just suck it up and go to Uni, but I am 19 and enjoy my time working and my free time. I think it's time for me to grow up soon though.

It is time to hide all the Easter eggs in your apps!

I wonder what easter egg will be in the devRant app🤔

Dim [Dim] As Short

Why you ask? For the glory of satan of course!

Almost 7am. My body is now used to going to sleep this late. I have to start waking up at that time soon.

This is what holidays do to me.

I understimate always how long tasks takes. Because of the fear that it is expected to be done quick.
I should unlearn that. And learn to communicate the time it really takes: at least doubble the amount of time of what you're thinking it takes.

guys do you know what is the best thing that makes you happy every time ?

When you fix a f*cking bug !

my mind is multithreaded but can not physically execute more than one thread at a time.

i.e. i want to say 5 sentences in the same time bc im too lazy to wait and say them one by one after a specified delay of time, so i fuck myself over while speaking.

like atomic regions, i bust a few words from time to time from different sentences i have in mind and it ends up not making any sense to what im saying, but it does in my head.

so this is what too much covfefe and sleepless coding nights does to people

I wonder if flappy bird dev is in this community. Anyway, I want to ask you guys - What would have you done if you were in his situation?

I hear he removed the game after he saw people are wasting too much time on it.

People waste too much time on porn, Facebook, YouTube and what not. I don't understand his reasoning behind removing the game.

Anyway, what would have you done?

Client : We need real time analysis.

Me : But we can't just scrape thousands of results and process them on user's click.

Client : Don't do that, Real-time analysis is scraping it once and processing it everytime the user demands.

Me : Okay

WHAT THE FUCK !!!!!

What time is it??

I feel like a man out of time and space.
I can work from anywhere so I am nowhere.
I work all the time, and I have no time to work.
Hours, days, and weeks. They all feel the same. The gentle barrier of sleep that denotes when one day ends and another begins is barely remembered if observed at all.

What the fuck did I sign up for.

"I'm getting an error. It's just not working right."

Stupidest. Bug. Report. Ever.

Please stop wasting our time with tickets like this people, it only requires is to then spend more time just figuring out what the issue is.

🙄🔫

Can https be decrypted easily?
(Or even by spending some time)
Plus what other security methods banks apply to prevent theft of sensible data?
Do they encrypt data using thair own private key thet is changed automatically?

I hate it when my manager lurks around when i am debugging and keeps giving random unsolicited advices. I spend more time explaining him why what he is saying does not make any sense than debugging.

.NET drinking game:
* Drink every time IntelliSense refuses to tell you what the actual error is because it's too busy choking on lambda syntax from a decade ago
* Take a shot every time you discover a closed, unresolved Github issue discussing your current showstopping build/CI problem
* Finish your drink every time the solution to your problem involves either manual edits to your CSPROJ (or whatever) file, or creating a new project altogether and copying all your fucking files over

Office laptop takes one hour to boot. Reason why we can' t upgrade is to save money..what about my time...you pricks...

Every time I stop playing a game, W10 helpfully says:

---
Your notifications will remain quiet here in Action Centre whilst you're gaming.

Only see notifications from your important people and apps.
---

It's not important to tell me every bloody time !

There is a button labelled:

---
Turn Off Now.

But what does it turn off..

The last time I saw someone press a button like that, it took me 3 days to find out how to turn something really quite important back on again !

I just automated the tasks I had for next week. What to do, what to do ^^ This is not really a rant but just me boasting. Time for beer.

The great thing about coding is, every problem can be solved with logic. And the simplest solution is often the best one.
Often when I don't know what to do, I just keep thinking about what I want to have and break down what I need for that and in the end I always come to a good solution. And it gets easier from time to time.

If I had a dollar for every time I said "Ah, I know what the problem is!"

But what the FUCK VULTR!!!
It is the third time in two weeks that I actually have to reopen issues because your staff do not know how to troubleshoot correctly!

If there is routingproblems, please check from an external server and not from the same network!

I dont know, but Vultr has significantly lost the servicemind during this year...
Time for another host?

Gmail's Android app is 300+ MB with 5B+ downloads. What the actual fuck!!

Why does an email client have to be of that size?

And how are downloads tracked? Every time someone installs the app counter goes brrrr?

The moment you know what a certain hash type is by just looking at it.
I guess i spend too much time playing crypto games because this is crazy.
But well im Haxk20. So its public knowledge that im crazy.

Damnit! Every time! Our UI Dev asks us to change the API every time he wants something different!

The API is backend -> business logic. You don't change your business according to what fucking color you want on your site!

Sad part is since he's senior I don't want to tell him off

Me: 16? What is this magic number? Why don't you create a constant for it?

Colleague: We do like that first for now. We'll definitely come back to improve it later when we have time.

Open source amazes me all the time.
My eyes water with the amazement of what people are willing to accomplish and then share! Sharing really is caring.

What is wrong with people. I put in hours of my time every day and it hurts to see some annonymous person complaining shit about something that doesn't even exist.
😤😤

One day i type hello world program.
And i was amazed that for the first time someone (something) is doing what i tell it to do.
And that's how i got interest in programming.

Manager: yo I need a time line for this shit.
Me: I don't know how long it takes.
Manager: tell me how long it takes.
Me: I can tell you what can be done in next couple hours. I don't even know what will happen tomorrow.
Manger: now tell me this time shit.
Me: .......

Seriously, dear fellow ranter. How do you estimate timeline? Your timeline is changing.

Got a notification from devRant. Saw that my post got 30++, Paused music and stopped opening my js files on my project, wrote a quick email to stickers@devrant.io, and then ended up browsing for so long I do not even know/ realize what time it is now, and certainly not what the time was when I started.

you know what time it is. its "wisecrack-tries-to-do-math-again" time!

Everytime I open Android Studio for the first time. I look at my code and I'm like "What is this? What was I thinking?". But 30 minutes later I'm so deep into the code I'm almost in a trance. Tell me I'm not the only one.

dates are just an index of time

practicing is just offsetting your initial, natural ability in a positive direction

do you guys ever just think of things in an abstract sense?

what are other examples?

I have so much free time! My plans all weekend have been cancelled, so I can just code all night and all day!

.... So what do I write? .....

Netflix it is then? *Sigh*

Oh no! What have I done? I opened up devRant at 8:00am and it's now 9:55am. This is literally my biggest time sink and I love it.

What a joke PayPal's so called testing environment is!

Last time I tried to use it, PayPal told me not to try because it doesn't work.

I'm about to take my first real vacation in about a year. One of the things I'm most looking forward to? Time to work on personal projects.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME?

What ? Noooo im not compiling linux-next and linux 5.5 at the same time. That would be madness.
What ? You think this is one of Haxk20 stupid rant's ? Noooooo surely not.

Infinity is defined by the time it takes for a group of developers to reach an agreement about what is the "Definition of Done".

"How many time do you need to close this task?"
"Mmh I guess 3 days and half"
"Ow..the delivery is this evening, is that a problem?"

Dude. Seriously, what the fuck!

I can do HTML, responsive CSS with JS but there is one damned thing blocks me all the time. What color?
How you guys choose your color on a webpage?

I loose it big time when developers in my team say "it's not working" and don't even care to explain what is not working and what were you trying to do....

Found this girl who also loves coding like me..... She's very studious... Have been doing projects with her inorder to spent time with her...Like for 3 years now....

But I don't understand what our relationship status is.....I tried asking her out..she just changes the topic every fuckin time... Like she also tend to spend time with me but doing technical stuff only....

I'm totally debugger zonez

Time is money.
…and you get what you pay for.

Whenever client send his desktop screenshot then I spend more time in checking stuff around (like bookmarks, what else is running on his system, opened tabs etc.,) rather actual screenshot 😂

What time is 18:00am ?
😥😰

Biggest regret is not what I have done, but what I haven't. A long long time ago, in the early 90s, I had a great idea for a game, but somehow I never made it come true. A few years later, Maxis launched a game very similar to my idea, and it was called The Sims.

I would say that I have good parents and my dad also supports what I do (most of the time) but could my mother please calm down and let me do what I enjoy doing while not yelling at me to learn Latin saying that it is 'the most important subject'.

When you want to wake up early in the morning but you accidently open devrant before going to bed and there goes your 2 hours without noticing what time it is and still you can't get enough of it. #devrantaddiction

You have a meeting with a really really important client who is a typical client from hell who constantly changes his mind about everything and then blames you for “not getting things done” and always says “this is not what I asked for” every god damn time.

Anyway, he now jokingly asks you if you think he has been a troublesome client and before you have time to answer he continues the meeting.

What do you do? Do you suck it up like a weakling and disappear up your own asshole or do you tell him what a monster he is?

Do you guys think it’s time “Hackers” gets its 2020 remake? I know it was cheesy for its time (1995) but 8 year old me was INTO that music video montage direction and that movie inspired was what inspired me to get into tinkering with electronics/embedded systems.

Rewatching it tonight and the casting is so on point, too.

I'm having a cold and going through Kleenexes faster than a porn addict with Duracell stamina.

So, the question is what therapy exercise to engage in, that fits a brain that's semi dysfunctional due to fever. Last time, I made a Sudoku solver. This turned out to be very useful, because every time someone says "You should try Sudoku!", I can just end the persuasion attempt by replying "I've already solved the general case".

Might do a Rubik's cube solver this time.

Urghhhhh why does it feel like Monday? Where's my coffee? Where's my computer? What time is my meeting? Urghhhhh

My first (student/part time) developer interview tomorrow! I'm not 100% sure what to expect since this is my first interview of this type. Nervous and excited though!

OK - Time to settle this for me. What is up with PHP? Everyone seems to detest it, however when I talk about NodeJs or Python, people say that they are inefficient. So is PHP an efficient mess?

Remember the time when I couldn't go to school because they were upgrading the internet?

THEY DELIVERED

fucking great, I come to parent's meeting at school, what a waste of fucking time this is.

the cherry on top: a fucking fake einsten quote on my kid's report, the one that says "there are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is."

What is your Favorite time to code ?

I have now been staring at this for 17 lifetimes.

It is now 12pm.... Time to get up... Now what should I do today?

Bachelor's life at 30... Dunno if I should be happy or sad that there's no one nagging me to do stuff...

That feeling of absolute joy, when something you've been working on for a loooong time, finally just works... THAT is the reason why I love what I'm doing

Why is it still not working for me?

FOR THE 10TH TIME TODAY CLEAR YOUR FUCKING CACHE!

Sorry what was that?

Clear your cache please.

time is the only asset that has no price and that is something that we all have.

time is worth more than anything and anyone, even money. once time is wasted, it can never be bought again.

each day you are deposited 86400 seconds for free.

Why there is an Eight hours effective time policy in companies? Like I cannot code more 4 hours max in a single sitting. What kind of efficiency they want from us.

So I went through the first round Google interview process and was declined for not "finishing fast enough" even though I did in fact solve the problem in the allotted time.

Either it's a BS excuse and they were just interviewing me to interview me for a quota or there is some invisible time limit that I am not aware of.

Really annoys me when I just don't know exactly what I'm doing wrong and instead get what feels like cop out answers.

What is God is just debugging us here on earth for the prime time in heaven.

What do you guys think about TypeScript? Does it worth time to learn the syntax? Also what is the relation between Angular 2 and TypeScript?

What is it with this sudden surge in shitty memes? Is it normal around this time?

lol,my mom just called me to check whether I had lunch or not. I was working and forgot what time it is!

He: Minimalism.

From last night:

Decrypting a LUKS volume group from a different install is a major pain in the drinking time. I can’t get this crap working no matter what I try. Ugh.

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 😉

Client just said to me "we'll give you a 'speed' payment to deliver the website faster, you just charge us what you think is right". WTF!

Blank cheque time... :)

Removing the CMOS baterry to reset bios is like when you wake up on the hospital bed and you are asking everyone, "who I'm I?", " where I'm I?", "who are you?", "when is today?", "what time is it?".

I'm a junior dev, been on placement a year.

I get tasks done mostly on time, my pull requests are merged, yet I still feel like what I'm writing is seriously under quality.

What point will I stop writing code that isn't good enough to not be stressed about? 😷

Do you get filled with anxiety and mental anguish when asked for your availability for a technical interview, knowing you’ve spent all your time recently programming and not working on algorithms/data structures and so you’re terribly unprepared but have no idea what the acceptable amount of time to schedule out without seeming like you’re incompetent is?

No?

....me neither. (She says, lying)

That time when you spend 2 hours trying to debug what your colleague insists is a server issue... Turns out to be something missing from his workflow! FML

What time it is where you are?

Android is fucking fucked up.

Why the fuck it takes so much of time to build. And trust me,

React + Android is the worst combination. Can't even understand what the fuck it is trying to say?

And sometimes, no body knows what is wrong with something. Seriously look at the picture, that's the solution sent by the Android lead.

Did you realize the repeatedly at the end. 🦆 What try 🦆 dude.

Fuck. I'm ain't gonna work on this after this project.

When coding, what percentage of your time is spent fluently typing your code vs thinking about what you're coding?

Microsoft is here... (Look at what time it is) ohh LinkedIn what great timing.

Question time! What was your first programming job or internship experience like? What I mean is, were you eased in or was it baptism by fire?

Mine is currently baptism by fire, coffee, and no sleep

Detox for a couple of weeks.
Have been avoiding social media apps like Instagram and Facebook.

It’s day 3, already feeling positive and less stressed

Only downside is what to do in free time

What is your first memory of programming?

I remember quite vividly writing C# in a notebook at church to pass the time. I did actually use some of that code if I am remembering correctly.

CSS Grids...

I followed a tutorial, attempted to do what I wanted, worked the first time AND without any weird side effects elsewhere! What is this magic?! :O

I work for a big bank. I'm going to say pretty much the entire Support team is incompetent.

Oh something went wrong? Escalate to devs... cuz we have no idea wtf to do and don't have the most basic technical problem solving skills...

Bunch of useless monkeys... btw guess what time it is now? And what I'm doing?

Or is it my life that has impacted coding? I'm so glad I was born in the right time. I can't even imagine what I would do instead of coding if I had to live in say, the middle ages.

Living life with regular work (8 hours per day, programming) and studying CS for masters degree is fucking disaster... I cant wait for end, all I do is fucking thinking. All I have is this one hour when I go to the gym and some time with my gf... I'm afraid when this ends (5 weeks) I wont know what to do in my spare time... Oh I know! Writing my masters thesis....

What on earth are some developers thinking. Was just browsing the Casio website, using Chrome and noticed the following message. How hard is it to display a message when actually needed, instead of all the time. Good watches, poor development :/

Andy sucks at coding. I have to fix his crap all the time. He still doesn't know what a variable is. He's also ugly and smells bad.

What are your new years resolutionsfor next year devranters?
Mine is:
-continue workout to get more fit
-succed with my projects
-travel atleast one time this year outside home country

1. Finish what is left over from 2017
2. Get some experience with machine learning
3. Finish internship and work as a normal full-time dev

Don't know what it says, all I know is Ubuntu time is now!!

Coding is easy, but it's the logic which gives us a hard time. Because in the end what we write needs to make sense or it's tits up for everyone.

What is the social networking programmers use to communicate.
Hey guys.
So what program do you guys use to communicate? Something that I can drop here and not behing spammed. Time to start creating my own network arround you guys... You know, smart people.

For a long time, I was hungry for a stack. Now I'm entirely indifferent. I'll use what I know to build what I want. If what I know is not enough, then I will learn. No more playing around. Its time to be epic!

What do you think about class-based OOP vs. Prototype-based OOP?
I think that class-based OOP is an unnecessary abstraction of structs, functions and global variables most of the time.

Python or Java? which one is better in terms of time-saving? what have you been using?

Thought experiment time:

Imagine that this whole universe is a simulation created by a Group Of Developers (GOD).

- Who would make up this group?
- What kind of design patterns would they follow?
- What type of programming language would they use?
- What kind of bugs are there if any?
- How do they test?

Fuck DuckDuckGo!

Is this is what you "privacy savyy" like to get? Irrelevant content. WTF?! Such a waste of time. I'm selling my soul back to Google. Fuck your opinion.

Contrary to popular belief, after having been in the working world I've realized that what matters and what is of value is book knowledge, not experience.

I find 'experience' an overglorified waste of time. Having in-depth knowledge of everything is what's important.

What happens when you give a database design to your boss as per what he wants done, he sees it is not impressed, scolds you, curses you out and claims you are 'fraud'. Then you tell him you can do better to redeem yourself...you submit the work better than the first time

And then he terminates you due to 'lack of proficiency'.

Mini-rant

Dear HR people, if you don't provide enough info about the positions that you have at hand forget about me wasting time on call-first acknowledgements to later on realize what kind of waste of time it was!

Sure, making business connections is important but without taking into consideration the other side time is all but respectful, in a professional context.

So, balance your shit and make the call worth the time of all the parties.

Fucking thanks.

At a coffee shop, not sure what is happening, but there is a 1/4 Chance of me connecting to a server each time I try to open a page! Fuck it is frustrating!

"Refactoring is a waste of time"
(inner "what the fuck!!!" ensues)

Security : Each time I login, they ask me to type the email address I want my one-time-code emailed to. Really!? What security is provided by letting the user decide where to email the flippin token to?!?!

This is getting weird. Every day, I finish all pending dev jobs in time and then I get 4-5 hours of spare time.

What to do man!

Converting server time to any given local timezone is a pain in the ass.. at least in JS.

Here's what I've got:
convertNowToTimezone = (localOffset) => {
let d = new Date();
let millis = d.getTime() + (d.getTimezoneOffset() * 60000); //convert server local time to UTC millisec
d.setTime(millis - (localOffset * 60000)); //convert UTC millisec to required local time
return d;
}

where I pass localOffset as -330 (IST offset).
Works in chrome console but gives a diff of 4min in the server side nodejs I'm running it in..

🤬🤬😡😡😡😡😡

What the fuck is up with Facebook's video player. How the fuck does the biggest social media platform on the planet, fuck up something so important to it. The UX is garbage, autoplay is a cunt with it starting at maximum volume each fucking time. Fucking EllenTube is better than that fucking shit.

What?! I mean what the fuck?! How it become sooo late? Why is devrant eating all my time? Fuck you devRant! I fuck you too!

After about 2 hours of debugging realised this is what I was doing. It's time to go to sleep

Playing articulate! with family and the word was zero. My description was "What is the first number?".

They didn't get it right first time.

I really value the skills, experience and time of my brothers and sisters here at Devrant. So I ask questions sparingly.

What is a really good website sketch/blueprint software that I can use to collaborate with non-techie humans.

Thank you for your time.
Have a great day fellow devranters.

The problem with drinking alone is that there always comes that time where you're just drunk enough and don't feel like you can get more statisfaction from drinking more...

What do you want body, I wanna get wasted

i've been working in this company for a few months(this is my first job)

i dont get time to walk
i dont have time/energy to execise or hit the gym
after the work

I was going to post a rant about something, but was in the middle of something so thought I'll post it later.

Now I can't remember what it was.
Also, this is not the first time this has happened :/

When you use an Android app on daily basis, upgrades every time when you can, then you remove and reinstall it and get a very different UI and feature set. What kind of black magic is this?

Pro-tip: dont be lazy, review the PR one commit at a time in chronological order. Dont scroll the whole features "file changes" thinking you'll understand the changes implemented. Your damn job is to understand what they're doing as well as what your doing. Take the time.

What is the dumbest, outrageous coding error you made? I had to spend a full week debugging once because I didn't use curly braces in an if statement. so much time for such a silly mistake.

Guys, what should I do until the virtual hard disk is being created. Time left: 25 minutes

So marketing department what our team to create a payment gateway from scratch, and must use our own programming language...

Personally , create a programming language is good idea but is time consuming and buggy

There comes a time, when you look into the mirror and you realize that what you see is all that you will ever be. Then you accept it or you kill yourself, or you stop looking into mirrors.

Sophomore here. For a long time this has been bugging me. I'm very skeptical about what I'm learning and what I plan to learn. Just doubting myself and feeling like a loser. So today i wanna ask, what was the road you took to be where you are now? I wanna know details
Did u exceed ur expectations and do u think if u knew what u know now, u cud've done a lot better and taken a diff route?

I'm asking this cuz i wanna set a baseline of skills to attain by the time i graduate. Been researching and the amount of things u can learn is very intimidating to me

My server is taking 7 minutes to boot with an ssd 🤔...

Time to systemctl blame the shit out of the system and figure out what config I messed up!

I am so fucking sick of daily stand ups. What a fucking waste of my time, even if it’s only 15 minutes, it fucks up my workflow and is just generally fucking annoying

When you take a break from JavaScript and invest your time on other stuff, you'll realise how paper-thin it is. Java is to JavaScript what Car is to Carpet?

I want to freelance when I'm not doing my full time job. To those that are freelancers, how should I get started? What is your experience? How do you guys get customers?

What I've learned from working on side projects is that distraction is caused by poor time management and planning skills. Why is this realization so important? Because it applies to every area of your life. Just think about it.

I am such a fool who took timestamp as a primary key in the database while designing.

Hey fellow ranters...quiz time!! What is 9 times F?

What is the state of DevRant?

I've been away for quite some time.

Working on an application - everywhere an enum should be is a database table instead.

Me: What happens when someone changes "rejected" to "approved" in your status table?

Me: What happens when you re-seed your database and the indexes for your types are different?

All problems, with no time or scope to fix!
USE A FUCKING ENUM

I've gotten to the point devRant is taking free time away from my personal projects... 😢 What should I DO??? Guess it's time to make an effort to cut down on devRant time
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How do you know when it is time for a break?

transition: color 0.5em linear;

When you cannot figure out what is wrong with this transition...

This is what I do every time I feel like garbage.

class Main:

def feelsgood():
x = input("Type your name")
print(x + " is awesome!")

Main.feelsgood()

Appraisal time has come. I am fully confident about my boss. He will do what is the best for him and his company.

OMG! What are you doing guys, the ultimate offer is here by Godaddy. Now I can afford food and domain at the same time, thanks Godaddy!

I was just looking new and lesser known programming languages. Then I came to Rust.
"Rust manages memory at compile time"
What?😵 How is that even possible?

I see this term “full stack developer” pop up all the time, does anyone want to explain what it means? A dev who knows all parts of the stack, and a stack is what..?
