My Mentor during the 1st year of my College

Set High Expectations and very frequently used to throw insults and shame me as if I knew nothing. And he was not wrong. I sucked so bad. Did learn some basics and promoted me one level from the "total newbie" state

But my best Mentor would have to be my PCs, Compilers, Debuggers. Couldn't find a better one

Thank you, Slack

Learn More is just a bunch of unsolicited instructions

When the pull request

1. has 100s of files with commit messages that make a very little sense
2. has the source files sprinkled with duplicate looking code having enough differences to screw my visual diffing ability
3. has too many changes combined when they can be independently reviewed and merged
4. includes me as the sole approver when I don't have enough context on the changes
5. includes references to tickets without any description, justification for the change, testing methodologies, test results, performance metrics comparison, etc. Literally none. It is as if the developer wants me to work with them from the Beginning

Really liked the 3rd choice

Happy Teacher's Day

Who thought learning would stop after School/College? Have been learning since childhood (though not as much as I should) and it will continue forever. I thank all the Teachers, Class Mates, My Parents, My Brother, My Friends, My Colleagues, My Seniors, My Juniors, My Managers and other Superiors. Everyone contributed their part 🙏🙏🙏

Edit - Totally Forgot Google and Co. Thank you won't suffice

Much more learning to come! Happy Learning :-)

Just realized that touching the title "Rant" reloads a given rant. Been hitting the refresh button

Does any one feel devrant is slow to load rants and images on mobile app? Tried both cellular and multiple wifis. Internet doesn't seem to be the problem here

This seems to be happening for a few weeks now

Wishing us All a Happy New Year ahead

One thing I do well and the only thing I like doing, and the only thing I could think of doing at all

K&R C, Google style guide and the various code review comments I received over the time

Must be the most celebrated comment I have come across yet

When you are too uninterested to write docs

Must be K&R, Ken Thompson for being the inventors of Unix and C. Also, lots of authors of various books prescribed in college

Fuck, the voucher I want to redeem failed and it is not usable again. And now I don't know what DB error might have happened 🤔

Sometimes it is worth waiting for something better

Happy Christmas to you, your Family and Friends!

Take rest, eat well, go to places you like, meet people who you like and who like you, travel to nearby places, learn a coding thing or two, listen to music or watch your favourite movie/TV show. Just do what you want to do. Have fun and make it memorable! :-)

Load a medium post. Wait for the entire junk to download. Or stop the loading if you just want to read the text content

But Medium has other ideas. Hook to the cancel event, show a useless page which only has the reload link. And why would it trigger the HTTP 500 status code to be sent? 🤔

Damn, I was about to submit my comment and then I encountered this

One would think they don't let the button be clickable without filling the basic minimum details

Trolls or innocents?

Happy Birthday, Google! Long live your Search Engine
