I didn’t want to wait for the adapter to come in…

That's right ༼ つ ಥ_ಥ ༽つ

Switched back to windows because I needed IIS for work and I did miss having a touch screen (could not get driver working on Linux).

A few gripes.

I mean, the standard "oh great, half a day downloading and updating my machine" applies.

The thing I forgot about Windows is that after everything I do it wants to restart. Updating itself forced the computer to restart several times, wtf.

Powershell (ironically) holds a shadow of bash's power

So many "power user" actions are done with a gui, dear lord give me a terminal command and a man page any day over the convoluted way to do some actions. Changing permissions for IIS was several layers of gui dialogues, where it would be a couple of commands in bash.

Sorry to be unoriginal and moan about an OS, as an end user windows is great and a lot more streamlined and arguably prettier, but as a programmer it doesn't make life half as easy as the realm of *nix

"DEKSTOP"

My sister is 16yo and she is not interested in the C.S field. I gave her last year my laptop and it has Debian on it, since i bought a new one. She never told me that she has to deal with any problem, she was just using it.
Today she got a new laptop from our grandma and she texts me "hey, is there any way i can install Linux on that? I don't want to use windows".
Well i told her that she has to wait me to come back home next month and i will take care of it.

I had never thought that i will listen something like that. Good day.

I really wonder which genius came to Shopify to report a bug on Spotify

For the love of the almighty, merciful God, fuck IBM until their company is brought down in ruins! May the earth they worked at be salted, and may they be struck from all records! May the families who speak of sons or daughters who work there be stripped of their status in life, begging in the streets!

May nobody be allowed to list them on resumes! May nobody be allowed to work for them! May they be a blight, hidden like the dirtiest porn magazines!

May mother's weep when children apply to them! May father's disown!

May managers avoid them! May they be scoffed at like the fools of old!

Oh how the mighty have fallen! The scholars brought low! May they repent before the day of judgement! May the change their ways! May they weep with sackcloth before the world, begging to be spared!

Fuck them! If you can't tell, I am pissed off!

One of my clients (who's also a coder) asked me today
"Are you on devRant?"
Me: 😶 What's that? 😓

Starter pack.

These guys from the airport in lisbon are really into git 😂😂

I'm thankful I have 2 ISPs in my area so I can at least threaten to switch although one only offers 1/10 the speed of the other.

Confession:
I actually like to code with JavaScript.

It's a terrible language, yes, but I find it fun to work with.

Hey everyone,

This coming Sunday (Feb 4), at about 12AM EST, devRant will be going down for scheduled maintenance (database server maintenance). The maintenance shouldn’t take more than about 15 minutes.

Feel free to let me know if you have any questions and apologies for the inconvenience!

New stickers 😍

I like bacon

Barely keeping up with the ++'s again :P

Thanks to every person who is ++ing me.

Yesterday I tried Rancher on a DigitalOcean droplet.

Rancher itself was easy to startup and use. But I couldn't manage to find the Container Volumes on my NFS Server. Even the NFS Server was up and running.

I really felt like a monkey in front of my PC not understanding what Im doing.

There is nothing quite so arousing, than getting your own VPS and hosting your applications*

*Not including boobs.

Wasted 20 seconds looking for a semi-colon... sobs.

My two coding ducks fighting over who's code is better

My number in the queue is 1024.... OK, that is looks optimistic!

Time To sleep Ben

What the fuck is this?
I'm so confused...
Where is the Netflix app? Is this real life?
Please help me.

Byte vs bit😁

At last found the best way to debug 😂

Incompetent may not be the right word, but a Linux system admin who had never heard of Ubuntu.

It has been a long day... 😐

Last night i ran my code, it worked. This morning i ran, it didn't.

I'm starting to doubt that my computer is a deterministic system.
