My PM just bought me fro yo

MySQL Workbench for Mac doesn't have dark theme 😡😡😡😡😡😡

How do I explain to my PM that I don't want to come into the office because I code better half naked surrounded by soda cans and several layers of cheeto dust

Setting up the boss' environment

*runs gulp test*

*twiddles thumbs*

*opens devrant*

They say if you throw good stuff out at the universe, it will throw good stuff back. But all it ever throws for me is a NullPointerException.

Sometimes I think, "can't I just do some quick SQL work to change the form requirements?" And then I remember, "oh wait, women don't work that way."

I think some love might help my career. When I sleep on a bug, all I do is dream about the girl I don't have and when I wake up the bug is fixed

Coolest project? Well, one time I had to take a dump while I was coding so I took the computer to the toilet with me and that was pretty exciting

Hey... Is this... A picture of Napolean crossing the alps while giving devRant a shameless plug?

Nah. Can't be. Everyone knows that he's a soulless PM. Figures that he's using light theme.

Isn't it funny that an app whose literal express purpose is to whine an complain has turned out to be one of the nicest around?

I relate to Dilbert on a spiritual level

About to sell the table I made in between jobs

Serial downvoters who love to suck joy out of souls and knock little kids ice cream cones onto the cold, hard, pavement that is life.

Lots of people seem to have awful PM's, so I just thought I'd express appreciation for my PM (who I found out last week goes to my church, which was cool). He regularly asks questions about how our system works so that he can be constructive in directions instead of acting like he knows what's up. Woo Tim! Ok feel free to go back to negativity time

@dfox small bug, I'm getting phantom notifications. The menu icon will have a 1 next to it, but when I get to notifications, there's no green. When I go back to the rant page the 1 is gone but it comes back eventually

@dfox feature idea: code formatting. Either indentation or special characters to demarcate code

First day on the job like.... I'd like to thank the academy

I'm pretty damn tired of script kiddies talking about Java being slow like they know shit.

Just. Stop.

VSCode, people

You're a good coder when you know what to ask on stack overflow.

At least I assume so. I'll let you know if I ever get there.

@dfox curious about the decision making process behind what happens when you +1 something you've already -1'd and vice versa. Currently it jumps up two points instead of going to 0 and then giving you the opportunity to vote again if you wanted.

Is this likely to change? If not, why this way?

What do you guys do in your spare time/ non-screen time?

I woodwork and mess with my car.

Trying to play basketball like

What do you listen to while you're coding?

People are posting their setups so I thought I'd post this.

It's a 2012 MacBook Pro, 13 inch. I put 16GB ram and some solid state in there just so it gets the job done.

When I was a freshman in high school, my dad saw something in me that he believed in (and I didn't). He decided to put his money where his heart was. He told me that he would go out and buy me a computer, and I wouldn't have to pay him back, if I would work hard at programming to pay for my own college.

His investment payed off. I just graduated high school and started a job last week that will get me through college debt-free through the gap year that I'm taking. This machine's getting a little old, but it means a lot to me. It reminds me that my dad believed in me even when I didn't. 🖖🏼

"So you're like... A computer guy right? So you like work at the Apple Store or something?"

Just nod. It's easier that way.

Today's Friday, so I've gotta go into my clients office. Time to throw on some chinos and pretend that I act like a civilized human being the other 6 days of the week... *glances at chip bag and popcorn container*

Fun one on the subway:

Make a little prompt script for your phone or computer

>welcome to Washington, D. C., Mr. Davis
>what would you like to view?
>1-traffic lights
>2-subway
>3-mainframe
3
>Subway Control
>1-emergency shutdown
>2-accelerate line
>3-shutdown line

Interact with script while on subway, watch reactions. Wearing dark glasses also helps.

"Fix my printer."
