How is the effect of Coronavirus in Germany? I got interview next week and 1 week holiday? Fuck my life 😂

For the first time, I will use “developer rant” for learning sth.

I am trying to learn concurrency in cpp. I tried CPP Concurrency in Action but the book is dry, no examples. Can you suggest a book with good examples and exercises, like CPP Primer?

Random rant: You should always look for a new job, even after landing a good(seemingly) one. It keeps you on edge and synchronized with the market.

Employers also should not shun people who are looking for new job, if they somehow find out. A developer who looks for a job, gets offer but decide to stay is better than who lost his/her/xir fire.

1. When you ask the rationale behind simpler programming concepts. Some are writing they are Java expert(5 star in some interface) and when you ask questions deeper than what is polymorphism.
2. When you ask them to show their work on one of online repositories. I aint taking your word on your msterious projects.

Please die somewhere alone Delphi, you unknown piece of shit.

That feeling when you spend whole day writing a criticism article of your industry, on your company’s expense.

If one more time I see this shit on my linkedin feed...

I do not know what an rss feed, heard it a lot but never bothered to check it. Am I a normie? Did my earlier life go to waste?

Is devrant developers using dark patterns in this app? I have set my notifications on only for direct mentions of me but there are tons of unrelated notifs;

1. Somebody ++ d your comment/rant
2. One or more comment on a rant...(can only be disabled manually)

I dont care about these notifs and I have minimum notif setting. What is the point providing settings that does not work.

Snake oil?

My undeserved but high salary.

I automatically assume every brown fave avatar here belonging to indian users. Am I racist?

How to swap two variables’ values without a temporary variable. I failed :/.

I think a lot of “confession of having impostor syndrome” on devrant is false humility. You really are an impostor, it became sth like i am perfectionist lies in interviews. Discuss(or flame at me, whatever).

Unlike rest of you average plebs, I am code ninja.(who the fuck prepares these adds).

Yet another?

Cringe, from my linkedin feed.

Am I too dumb if I do not understand good-first-issues on open source projects? I mean, I completed C++ Primer book. Tried to find a real world challenges to use my knowledge.

I look at those issues but I really can understand em, when they belong to a project with tens of modules etc. Maybe good-first-issue is for people who spends 20 hours just to understand project, before writing a single line of code.

Is there a way to stop all these code formatting arguments ince for all? For example, a github /ide plugin reformats your code to your preference when you work on/review but in the end, it is stored in some specific format.

Where should starting brackets be positioned if/else and function definition in C? Same line or the next line. Have not seen pure cosmetic bullshit like this.

All those code-ish new year celebrations in this community are cringy. This is why women dont find you attractive.

Vaad the fuck is this? Another framework...

What would you do if you had a safe way to slack whole day in job?

I am working in a giant company, it is easy to camouflage here. I am doing whenever a job is given but those tasks are not developing me. So I execute those tasks slowly. Sometjmes, a good quality tasks are given , I execute them really fine but those are scarce.

I used to study a lot of things during the day, like cpp, python, IoT but i feel like burnt out, just waiting for the end of the day. How can I break out of this situation. I know, for a better job, I must be a better sw engineer but I am wasting my free time(during my work hours) recently and my feeling of guilt is increasing.

How do you pick up yourselves in such mkments?

JavaScript is not real code! Shots fired!

I hate people who pushes/pulls/leans on my chair while asking me a question.

Is this an honest app? Promising too much?

What is the shortest bath algorithm

Machine learning, AI, deep learning. Why are all these a magnet for snake oil salesmen?

My deepest regret is believing lies about OOP, during my education.
1. It is the best way to model a software, easier to think about objects and relationships: no it is not.
2. It increases reusability: I have seen people invwnting base classes to justify.

Are there any lies you regret believing that you believed during your education?

This is my first "Fuck you Windows" post. I just got a warning from GitHub that blocks me from using it;

"You must update your password to continue using GitHub.com"

Who the fuck are you? I am risking to be hacked. Why do you care, you just warn me and move on. How dare you block me and force me to use better password.
