Hi all,
I am back to devrant, I miss it a lot.

//proceed to post this rant, knowing nobody knows me or give any shit.. Yeah useless like my life

Is the new M1 MacBook Pro a good choice for programming and stuff?

Hello Apple,
Fuck you, more than a month trying to open a developer account without any chance, lot of fucking emails.

Lesson 1:
If you’re from a country and put a phone number from another country you will never be able to open a developer account? How did I know that? From my experience and many other people, but Apple just says: Error, that’s it you figure it out !

Lesson 2:
If you pay using a card on which the name is different than the name in the developer account, you have to wait longer and provide more documents. How did I know that? After fucking 5 tickets and more emails asking why my account is not ready yet, then they answered they need a document to verify my identity. If you don’t do that you will just rot waiting.

Lesson 3:
If they need an ID document, you have to email them first and ask why you’re account is not available yet, if you don’t you will just rot waiting.

Hard lesson:
Don’t update your OS while a project is still not finished, or at least on critical state of a project

LinkedIn: Are you finding difficult to socialize while wearing mask? Here some tips for...

Me: Just shut up! I am enjoying this

Isn’t that too obvious to ask ?!

What makes me afraid that he never find a solution for that !

You guys work from home because of coronavirus?
Me on the other hand, have to work on weekend on my desk to finish an urgent project, it’s for the ministry of education (who closed all schools and launched an online courses) to monitor the effectiveness of the new platform and fix some bugs on it.

Anyone tried Apple AirPods, are they good and worth the price?
How is it if I am iPhone & Windows PC

COVID-19
Why it sounds like a JIRA ticket?

Umh.. maybe I should uninstall it while I can

Me and the team I manage after fixing bugs,
Me: hey devXY, please send a build to the QA to test it. I am going to a meeting.

*2 hours later

QA guy: hey, we did not receive any build yet.. we are already out of time..

Me to devXY: hello, why didn't you send a build to QA?

devXY: ok, sending it now.

ME LIKE: WTF!!!

"We're promoting you to be a Team Leader, since you proved your skills to handle tough tasks and bring good solutions, and we're raising your salary by 25%."

That sounded good for me, until I realized that all they need is an interface between them (the boss) and other employees to force their style and monitor every fucking thing that could be different from a dev to another. But since the boss is a sEnIoR with mOrE tHaN 10 years of experience but he does not have any clue about good practices and how to make a code that does not push you to be humiliated by the client, he still thinks that he's the fucking programming God.

That's a shit

How documentation works

*Manager enters the room quickly*

Manager: Coffe2Code, we have a serious problem on the application, (We are working on a chat app).

Me: What? now just few hours before the Demo?, what is it?

Manager: when I send or receive a media message (audio or video) the sound is not playing, the file seems like corrupted !

Me: that's strange, let me debug it and see.

*Me spending an hour and could not even reproduce the bug..*

Me: Boss, I cannot see the bug, can I debug on your device quickly?

Manager: Sure, here it is.

Me: hold the fucking device, press VOLUME UP, IT WAS FUCKING MUTE. THERE WAS NO ISSUE MOTHERFUCKER.

Manager, oups ok good no issue then, thanks

*Me starving all the week to lose weight:

Thereis a disturbing issueon the iOS version of devrant, the layout is cut from the bottom.
And inside the typing screen, the tags area is not even visible.
Anything noticed this?

LinkedIn : hey there is a job that matches your search.

Me: ok, let's see it !

Job: Matched skills: 0 out of 10.

Thanks LinkedIn 😒

Let's comment out this block of code so later we know we have this feature and bring it back if we need it.

Later: commented code everywhere, literally everywhere!!! Shit

This is the third time a recruiter calls me while I am shitting on the toilet.
It's one of two, they call me too often. Or I shit a lot

Since new iPhones don't include headphone jack port, instead use single Lightening port.

All that I can find on the internet is headphone jack to lightening adapter, but I want THE OPPOSITE.
I want to use my lightening headphones on regular jack port.

Why is that very difficult to find?

2020 Prediction:
More JavaScript frameworks/Libraries, As always.

It's the same problem every morning... Tye hard decision: Tea or Coffee..

I don't always leave my job..
But when I do, I leave a bunch of shitty code that will make the next developer suffer.

That's what they get if they keep asking 'We need it now/today'
