@neeno yeah that's a valid point... always having to do something other than what you were hired for (and probably what you wanted to do) is certainly good enough reason to rage

@SortOfTested i agree on both statements... restricted access and security policies are usually the first obstacle when I move on something new and yeah they are always annoying. As for the IT term...i used it cause I couldn't come out with a broad enough term to mention our entire domain of work...so kinda defaulted to IT

Ahh the good old days when SO had all the answers...now I have to dig through git repos and obscure forums to figure out wtf happened...*sigh*

@Demolishun Yeah... that's actually kinda nightmare material...a bad code generated by an even worse AI...and I have to make it work...I need another drink

@3rdWorldPoison i agree with you on that part...there is a chance that the code he copied from SO was written by an experience dev and the solution is a very good one...i was just saying that the mythos that pancakes has trouble believing is quite true

@N00bPancakes ok ok ok...he modified the one line with the db connection...i was trying to tell you that there are people who happily copy code...and don't care to understand what they copyed

@N00bPancakes neah my friend...I've seen in plenty of times... especially in inters...they get a random task..like get this from database and return in json...fire up SO..run it (without modifying anything)...it works... miraculously....flag it as solved...no idea what they did or why it works...or the best ones...copy code...don't even run it once...just compile successfully...done

Didn't feel like reading the whole discussion...fast scroll...people are talking about kebabs...the fuk...i just like the way devrant comments go wild in like 10 messages...also haven't had a kebab in months...kinda want one now

Honestly I've defaulted to chrome because it damn works...I've tried a lot of browsers..both for dev or just on my pc. I've stuck with chrome in the end because it's the only 1 that never really crashed on me. With the other browsers I kept getting in weird crashes (video not playing, sound not playing, content overlap, invisible buttons, blocking fukin stack-overflow for "potentially dangerous malware code"...etc etc). So yeah I'm using chrome because it doesn't give me random headaches

Honestly it depends...if I need to figure out some bug that's giving me a hard time I like silence so I can think...if I have to do a task that needs a lot of code (like a new endpoint with all the resources it needs) then I prefer some music in the headphones

I usually prefer try catch and I generally add custom exceptions so i know the exact point in the chain where it crashed...it's also easier to write accurate error logs this way (for me at least)

You do realize that a senior dev probably has a lot more to do then a junior...one of the things actually being making sure the cluster fuck of code the juniors produce actually work...the guy probably hasn't even looked in the issue because he was swamped with other task..but a junior who has one thing to do (and usually screws it over big time) brags that he did it when the senior couldn't...give me a break... that's some major bs right there

@MrCSharp the guys who wrote it are pretty organised...so it's not that hard figuring out what they did but still...at least a small description of the class would have been perfect
