@arcaneeye I use a distinct message for each error, to help search for the error point...

I like to use "silly error messages" like

"Oops! It should never have happened"
"It was like this when I got here"
"Someone screwed up everything here... And it`s not my fault"

But it just in my own projects... Unfortunately my employers don`t like this kind of messages...

Yaml use a syntax based on Python, using indentation to define blocks.
I have a personal problem with Python because it thinks it can obligate me to use it's indentation (I do what I want)...

Whatever, I have (psychology?) problems with Python, but I'm ok with Yaml... 😂

Sometimes I think about a "sarcasm sign" to avoid this kind of situation... And it may works as a new layer of sarcasm...

"WIIIILSOOOOONNNN!!!"

Sometimes you doesn't need to change things that is working... Until it blows up into your face it's running safe... rsrs.

I saw a similar solution with an "integration app", it was just an app that reads data from a legacy system (in Fox Pro) and send these data to a REST endpoint... About 23 and a half hours the app stops to send requests, but still reading the legacy system database... A colleague work for a week to make a job to restart the service every 23 hours...

It took 3 hours of debugging to realize that it was a connection leak and fix it...

As Doctor House always says:
"Everybody lies. It's a basic truth of the human condition that everybody lies. The only variable is about what."

Sometimes you need God's help to solve the problem...

It os truth only when you need to pay the bills... Otherwise the client will go to the "f off" group too...

Yeah, sometimes you need to drink a beer and show your (awesome) code to someone who can understand it.. And sometimes "this someone" give advices or make comments about it is a good thing...

I used something like that in computational physics (programming in Fortran)...

Is it to call you to make the backup?

Is it a rant about a failed rant? Or it's just a rant about a software crash (because it can't handle you anger)?

@PaperTrail as you said, you need to know to make it the right way... Unfortunately there is more people making it in the "wrong way" or with the "wrong purpose"...

@thekid89 it will make their database server faster...

Here in Brazil many IT companies work for government agencies/companies and they always ask for graduated or certified employees in the contracts...

Go to bed, phone, you're drunk...

@sanketthecoder I know many developers who only knows Windows (I mean they don't know how to use other OS)...

@sjzurek I don't know this case, but sometimes you need to use older systems because you need to use a software or a hardware that run only in older systems... A few years ago I saw a hardware in a public hospital here in Brazil using a hardware connected to a parallel port (LTP or LPT, I never know the right name) running a DOS software... They said there isn't a new version of the hardware or a new version of the software...

I think meetings with tech people who don't know what we're doing may be worse than that.

Important things first, of course...

@Ashkin as I saw in a post, the most important tag html should create is the <sarcasm> to help internet communication.

Comments is like test, you don't need it if you know what you're doing...

@nbamaral unfortunately it wasn't mine, I just retweeted this (and I thought it could be shared)

I saw this before in Portuguese. But it is funny in any language (with or without errors).

I like command line because I can automate tasks (click build button, stop JBoss Server, open the JBoss folder over SFTP, put the new version, start JBoss) with just one command (ok, I made a script, but it's just one command) and use the time of clicking buttons to something useful (like reading devRant)...

You did it for just 24h... The fun only starts after the 48th consecutive hour before a release...

English is a complex language... It's normal to use a simple version of it...

It remembers me a project I worked... They used some obscure classes from JDK 1.5 and JBoss 4.2... Tupy can't build neither run ir Igor you change JBoss or JDK version...
Ah, I almost forgot the best part... They used "custom library's versions" (they took a library source code, change some lines of code and than repackage it and add, without a dependency manager, of course, to the project)...
