Asked my UX guy a question, and he gives me a 45min rant on how I used the word "spec" incorrectly

Then proceeds to answer my question in one sentence

Oh how I love working with those visual people...

I freaking love git.

That's all.

Our UX guys have all congregated in a conference room and are practicing their joker laughs.

I'm slightly worried.

In highschool an advisor told me not to go into computer science because "they do all that work in China now"

You know, it's hard for me to admit, but I kind of like what Microsoft has been doing with GitHub lately

Am I missing something here? Or did moment forget how to math?

Have a failing test? Just remove it! Guaranteed to work every time!

The hostname for my server that is running RancherOS is "huevos"... I thought it was funny

So I graduate on May 4th... If no one ends their speech with "My the force be with you" I'm going to be freaking pissed

Do you guys know of any banks that offer an API to their customers? I'm looking for a way to get bank account balance and transaction history for a small personal project I'm working on (meaning, plad is not really an option)

Hi, my name is bohr and I'm a recovering distro hopper.

It all started with Ubuntu, out of my frustrations with the unintuitive nature of DOS I gravitated to a Unix environment which Ubuntu naturally solved. But I quickly became annoyed with the laggy nature of it's daily usage. So I switched to Linux mint. Loving the HTML/css/js configuration aspect of cinnamon I thought it was the answer to all my problems. But I became annoyed with apt and it's lack of a few programs I wanted. This got me to look into an arch based distro, because pacman seemed like the answer to my problems. Unfortunately there are way too many arch distros to use. I experimented with antegros' many DE options: gnome, kde, i3, deepin, openbox... Always finding something wrong. I tried manjaro and it's many flavors, still being annoyed with minute aspects of the os. Out of frustration, with the deep configuration settings I was getting into and the need to actually focus on the work being done on the computer I crawled back to Linux mint. But now my friends, I have decided that maybe it's time to just use a more established distro? Maybe gnome isn't actually that bad? Maybe I need to give it another try? And that is why, I promise, this is the last hop for me. Arch Linux, Gnome here I come and I'm ready to commit this time!...

But have you guys seen POP!_OS? Woah, I bet it would solve all of my problems....

Question for those who are in or have gone to college. Were you there to actually learn things? Or just get a degree?

Protip: your CI always passes if you don't write any tests

The golang mascot perfectly embodies the language. It's quirky and weird, but in the end it does it's job

Dear Java library developers. The javadoc is not an excuse to not write documentation.

Signed,
a very annoyed golang developer

As devs we like to complain about our jobs. But I just want to take a moment and acknowledge how truly amazing writing software is. Nothing else has given me so much joy and happiness. The endless stream of new things to learn, the elusive art of clean code, and deep understanding of systems required for architecture. There is so much depth to this career we have all chosen and I hope you guys love it just as much as I do.

When I was younger I had a decision to go into hardware or software. I chose software and have loved it.

Recentily I just spent 5 hours trying install a Linux distro on an old server. I made no progress.

I made the right decision. Hardware freaking sucks! You spend hours working on outdated pieces of crap and find that to fix your problem you need to sell you kidney to finance your project. Not to mention you have to wait for literally everything! It's like gradel builds everywhere! Want to install a new distro on your USB? Bam, 5min gone. Want to boot into bios and change one setting? BAM! more time wasted...

A note to the sysadmins out there: thank you. I love you. I am so happy you do this kind of work so I don't have to.

While TAing an introductory python class:

Student 1: What were comments again? A pound sign?

Student 2: No, they are hashtags

A group member in my senior level computer science class is afraid of the command line so they change code through the GitHub website, essentially using it like Google Drive.

Does anyone else have this neverending drive for perfection in their software? One that has consumed every personal project, causing rewrite after rewrite so it would finally be perfect. Only to realize that perfection is impossible you are the guy who just wasted his entire weekend and has yet to finish a single project.

Wrote a nodejs script which reads emails from my college searching for keywords like free, food, and refreshments. When it finds one of those it notifies me that free food is somewhere on campus.

Necessity is the mother of invention

Submitting my homework in LaTex makes me want to print it out and hang it on the wall because it is so beautiful.

Spent 2 hours trying to figure out why my .bashrc file wasn't getting run. Then I realized I'm using zsh...

When your CS professor doesn't have a single IDE or text editor in their dock/taskbar you really start to doubt their ability to program.

Finally got my stickers! Thanks devRant! Ready to start filling my laptop up with things only developers understand!

Finally free from the clutches of OSX. Feels good.

I recently started using Linux on my desktop.

I just love how when I see some minor thing I don't like about the operating system I can just change it myself!

Want to remove the menu icon? Simple change to the settings. Want your downloads folder to be clean? Simple cron job which asks you if you want to clean your downloads folder every day.

Man I love having the freedom to screw up my operating system!

Has anyone ever had a good computer science professor? Because I'm convinced they are a myth.

Does anyone else miss the days when just jQuery solved all of our problems? Pretty sure the internet forgot what simplicity was.
