My windows friend's actual reaction to me switching over to Linux.

Best DHCP server ever.

My wife: “Commit, then come to bed.”

Turns out, double tapping the rant too fast will not ++ it, but open it (sometimes twice even).

Not certain if it's a bug or just my shitty touchscreen, but make sure you tap more slowly if you have similar problems.

I have that one friend, every time he ask what I am doing and I tell him I am coding, he tells me that he wants to programme too but has no idea how to start.

I always tell him to Duck duck go start programming python/java but he never does...

(I think I somehow created an infinite loop)

I've put my nose down the books regarding cryptology quite alot lately, and at the end of the day, I really think that Bob and Alice should just meet and talk in person.

Turns out Spotify desktop shows a lightsaber as the seek bar when you play this

OMG OMG YAYAYAYAYAY

I created a Discord bot for devRant using devRant.NET API.

"Can you work on this ticket? It's kind of urgent."

-- "OK"

"And could you please not refactor? Just get this done."

-- "Why? What's the issue?"

"The logic is complex. We should not break it."

-- "Erm, that's what the tests are for. So yes, if the need arises, I'll refactor. The tests are my guidelines if the logic breaks or not."

There's a reason we create tests. So let's not hinder code base improvements by some random fear that stuff might break.

If breaks due to refactoring, we'll fix it by adding a valid test case during and then fixing the bug.

If my refactoring does not break the tests, I'll assume the code base is stable.

If your code is untested, then we have a complete different problem.

My last episode of Game of Thrones got ruined because of spoilers on social media 🙈 So to ensure that I don't get any spoilers for the GoT finale, I created a small chrome extension which automatically blurs out any GoT presence or prospective spoiler from websites I visit.

So for all those who are worried about the spoilers, can give it a try over here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/...

Might be a bit buggy here and there so do share any feedback you have. 👍🏼 #WeekdayHackathons

Friend: "How does one use rubber ducks"
Me: "You don't"
Friend: "why?"
Me: "Rubber ducks uses you."

WHAT FUCKING PAYMENT PROVIDER SENDS ALL THEIR TECHNICAL STAFF ON VACATION?!?!?

Leaving customer service to tell me to "wait until they get back... In three weeks"

Unbelievable, I'm actually thinking there are laws and regulations about this if you are providing money handling services, but the sheer stupidity in itself!!

Whaaaaaat?

Cybersecurity books @Humble Bundle

https://humblebundle.com/books/...

There is a really great Humble Book Bundle at the moment, starting at 1$. The bundle contains several cyber security books ("Practical Reverse Engineering" and "Security Engineering" have a good reputation).

Torvalds doesn't give a fuck

Lotus Notes anyone?

I'm only two step far from having an intelligent house, just missing finish my own domotic system and then a bot to control, music, TV, and electricity.

Let's do the list:

1.- Kodi on TV ✔

2.- MPD on a hidden PC inside my old grandpa's stereo ✔

3.- a small data server to provide music, movies and series to Kodi and mpd ✔

(This is something that im trying to do with spare PC's running Linux on my free time)

MPD on a PIII (500mhz + 512mb RAM)
Kodi on a dual core (2.80ghz +3gb RAM)
Server on a opteron (1.80ghz + 1.5gb RAM)

Mom: what are you doing ?

Me: i'm installing daemons in my computer.

Mother: *sprays me with holy water

idk if I´m getting better in coding or Android Studio is using some "black magic" but after working on a project for like 2 hours it compiled without any error.

"Whenever a user creates their account, they get an email with their password. We also get a copy of said email which makes it easy to troubleshoot any issues when they ring us." -- I was so tempted to hand in my resignation on the spot...

When fixing things:
Linux = be root
Windows = reboot

That one answer that continuously generates reputation :)

Always wondered how Dijkstra came up with that algorithm!
