I've been at my job for about 3 months now. They have me remaking a 10 year old site so that it's responsive and updated to HTML5. well the "senior developer" I'm working under doesn't know squat about responsive design and doesn't know that tags like font are deprecated so he's basically just copy pasting old code into bootstrap grid and calling that "updating the site". Lol did I mention he's still declaring the doctype as HTML 4 too? how did I get stuck here? -_-

Any crazy experiences?

When you cant get project documention because people have other things to do and your project has a deadline in 2 weeks

/*
* Name
*/
private static final String NAME = "name";

No shit Sherlock...

Client: "documentation, oh you mean those grey texts the previous code guy wrote on the code files"

Me: I kinda need more than "grey texts on the code files" if you want me to actually fix the system and implement the new specs.

Client: oh you mean the Microsoft asp books

Me: It's a Laravel system sir, it's php not asp.net

Client: what are those?

Me:.................

Her: How do you make an app?
Me: Well, first you have to decide what language you want to use as the basis for coding it, or what system you want to start on ex: ios/Android
Her: What

That great moment when you can just write your code with nobody rushing you and no deadlines

When GCC gives up on you..

First laugh then comment 😂😂😂

Every damn time.

Made me laugh so hard thinking about how often a semi-colon has been my source of depression & self injury

I once stumbled across a "documentation" page that just said "coming soon".
true story

When you have a super annoying problem that Google has been unable to help with... But you stumble upon a link with the exact title matching your issue... And clicking on it gives you a 404.

Amen :p

Every time someone posts their multi monitor setup I'm looking at my setup and be like: "Will this community accept me?"

How do you know that a person is using Arch Linux?

Am I the only one who likes to cook home-made food instead of getting junk pizzas and/or other awful stuff?

Is the dev community inherently kitchen-averse?

note 7 is really “Booming” right now

Has there ever been a devRant community hackathon? If not, let's have one!
