Thank goodness noise cancelling headphones exist. I have a coworker who loves running a white noise machine at his desk all day. 😒

But now I don't have to listen to it 🙉

Best purchase I have made all year.

Some people are a little too sensitive about harmless practical jokes. 😒

This popped up on Best Buy while I was looking around for ideas for my next chair. Somehow I don't think they are on speaking terms with their daughter anymore 🤣

Watching Google Analytics for my company's customer facing tools.

Almost half our traffic is made up of IE and Edge.

In that IE group, somewhere, there is a sad strange little user still on IE 8. Just one.

Poor guy.....

That moment when you double tap tweet in Twitter to like it. 🙃

Why can't more apps be like devRant!

After wasting most of the afternoon trying to fix Visual Studio, I can honestly say is is the worst IDE I have ever had the misfortune to use.

Seems the only way to "fix" it is to erase it and reinstall.

Fml

Any fellow devRanters here at OpenWest conference today?

Goodbye Inbox 😢

Hello Spark!

What a bunch of liars....Gmail still doesn't have all my "favorite Inbox features"!

One of the better filler release notes I guess. Not as good as Slack or Discord but still better than Google.

Sample Merge Conflict 🤣

Another day, another dead Google project.

Really wish Google could get messaging right.

What's the most number of lines you have written for a project without testing and then had it run the first time? Also for context, what language did you use?

Feeling pretty good with my 200+ in C#.

Nice learning experience from Spotify. If a survey response might contain negative feedback, just don't allow it to submit.

Clever Spotify ;)

If you could keep only one alias from your {bash, zsh, etc...}rc what would it be?

One of my biggest tech related peeves, someone shows a video as part of their presentation but doesn't use full screen or even worse leaves the cursor over the video.

Feeling like a boss! 😎

Long story short:
Solved a formating issue in a program at work by using ancii code 32.

Even my team lead didn't think of that solution!

Found this fun folder cleaning out my drive.

Whatever Microsoft......I am deleting it either way.

Today's my company's official final day with Slack.

Starting tomorrow it's nothing but the "superior" Google Chat. I will have no choice but to join the others who have already migrated over.

FML

It also mean I won't have any access to messaging outside the office because I don't want to accept the security certs on my phone.

Why can't more stuff support markdown?

I have had more reasons to use it lately, outside of repo READMEs, and (re)discovered just how awesome it can be in different text situations.

Go home Google, you're drunk.

Stepping up my security game!
This just showed up today!

Mobvoi just launched the new Ticwatch S2/E2. Currently have the S1.

This FAQ page has me scratching my head. Guess their documentation team wrote part of this before they decided to pull the NFC feature?

Maybe?

If so, that's something in common with my company 🤣

Wasn't given a chance to test out of a scripting(bash, python, perl) class for my Bachelor's program. To "rebel" I finished all the assignments during this first week of the semester and have a perfect 100% in every one.

At least the assignments were fun.

Take that <school name redacted>!

Screw all the people who think standard email is "secure". It is not suitible for sending passwords and SSN numbers.

How can something Equifax or Marriott hacks have happened and people are still ok sending out information like this in plain text?!

I know their hacks weren't email released but still.....should be a good time to up some security standards. Right?

Just found out today that may FINALLY be able to start charging for the development work our team does. 😎

Just have to wonder why this could have happened ages ago.

**Spoilers**
It was the sales team. That's why!

I finally had a reason to setup an atjob on a server. Been looking for a reason to use it for so long. Today was finally the day!

Good feeling 😊

The Play Store just added even more white to it's design with the latest update.

Once again Google is going the wrong way with their design choices....

Can we please just have a dark mode.
