Found myself a gf who also does the code stuff. We are each other's debug buddies.

Geekiest non Dev Activity.
Easily playing Magic The Gathering every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evening.
EDH, Standard and Draft.

FOSDEM was pretty awesome.

I did it. I got the internship. Maybe I can do this after all.

Interview tomorrow for a placement year. Nervous.

Goals for 2019
- Land an internship at either of the companies I'm in the final stages of interview for.
- Nail my exams.
- Publish an application to the app store.
- Buy an RTX 2080ti.
- Start a blog.
(Dev-ish goals I guess)

I don't like C.
C is not my friend.

Worst career choice: Not programming when I was younger because someone told me I would pick up bad habits. As a result if feel behind some of my peers at University.
Best career choice: I'll let you know when/if I have a career.

Pre semester nerves kicking in real hard right about now.

Just did an internship test for Autodesk and came away from it with the conclusion that I'm really stupid.
May as well give up on my dreams.

Picture taken in the dark but that's how I like to work. In darkness. Illuminated by just my awful code.

Just spent an hour salvaging some code from an app project I abandoned so I can reuse it in the future and add what I salvaged to a portfolio of small things I've made.
It was a simple multiple player name menu that generated player objects once the user was done entering names.
Loads of potential future uses.
No point letting it sit inside an abandoned project even if it is somewhat trivial to reproduce.

I turn 21 in a month, and I still have no idea what I want to pursue as a career after university or how to get there.
Sure its two years away but I feel behind already.
Also how does one go about getting an internship in the UK?
I've yet to speak to anyone from any dev industry and it's beginning to concern me.

Finding good learning resources is difficult.
It shouldn't be.
But it is.
And that makes me sad.

Today I Fucked Up. I tried to do something involving hardware.
I tried to fix my mechanical keyboard by myself with no thought towards how electronics work. My first time using a soldering iron and trying to fix something myself.
I went from needing to replace one key to burning some plastic, failing to get new solder onto the parts to attach the new key to the PCB and getting solder where I didn't want it to needing a new keyboard because I think I've fried some stuff so badly half the bottom row of keys no longer works.
Fucking wonderful.
Guess it's time to buy a new keyboard.
Sigh.

Expressing my inner nerd through my t-shirt choices.

A switch on my mech keyboard broke.
It's ot amusing at all.

I moved house yesterday and now it's been around 27 hours since I last used my computer.
All I want to do is create but my setup is in boxes in another room and it's 5am.
Why must motivation strike at the worst times?

When I forget how to do something simple and I have to look at past projects or look online.
Makes me feel disappointed in myself.

The feeling when you realise the 4 letter username on devRant you wanted hasn't actually been taken.

I thought i'd see what the avatars look like with different color eyes.
I personally like red. It really brings out the undying hatred I have for my peers.

Boy do I love when Snapchat sends me a snap telling me happy father's day.
I don't even know who my father is but thanks for the reminder assholes.
I wonder what dipshit thought that sending everyone on Snapchat messages during all sorts of holidays that not everyone celebrates was a good idea.

Is there a devRant discord server?
Might be cool to play some games with some people or chat about stuff.

Getting 90% my final project for a first year java module and only lost marks on my write up.
I felt like my code was trash, my program was trash and it didn't look very nice either. I met the spec sure but it wasn't good.
My university just hands out high marks like candy. Honestly wish I'd got into somewhere better. I want critisism and feedback not a pat on the back.

Finally decided to do some planning before writing code but now I feel like I'm just procrastinating around writing the code.
The struggle is real.

Just got started on my first summer project.

Drinkaloo: The Ultimate Drinking Game.

Never touched android studio before. This should be fun.

I recently filled out an e-form that asked you to fill out your birthday in the format of:
DD/MM/YY
but it didn't accept 22/09/1997
I was confused at first. I'm over 18 what's the issue?
Turns out it would only accept 22/9/1997
What sort of monster does that?

devRant should add a polls feature for simple questions with yes no answers or what version of linux people use etc maybe?

I'm really sorry but...
You just lost the game.

Just started using GitHub for my Uni assignment. Summer is coming up and I hope to get a lot more green on here with some projects.
