So proud to know other great people world wide such as Ambassadors from other countries .Big up Farooq Hassan for giving us good directions and most above all Eng. Hezbon orina for giving the spirit to always move on. 🎊

Weekend project completed today !! (PS : using cloned Arduino only for testing purposes)

Collapsed tags - they rarely mean anything else but trouble.

Here I sit and hesitate, should I code or masturbate.

My PC when I use it: "..."

My PC when I look at something on my phone: *gentle fan hum*

My PC when I resume activity : "..."

My PC, 5 minutes after leaving it: **VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV**

** sits down, still big fan blowing, open up the task manager to see what's bugging the system **

** PC calms down **

I have an overly attached PC?

This is how one of our junior devs solved a merge conflict

So here I am, analyzing a binary file for a small hacking challenge, asking myself what the hell am I doing. As if 13 hours at school weren't enough.

Depression is like email newsletters, nobody signed up for that shit and the unsubscribe link never works 🙈 fuck that 📧

Others: Are you a Marvel fan or a DC fan?

Me (an intellectual): Are you an AC fan or a DC fan?

1. If your contract allows it (and it should), get more involved in public dev community. Your employer benefits greatly from making a small closed source core product, with a giant open source ecosystem around it. Write public articles. Working in a community larger than one single business is fun.

2. Start a company coding club, a "labs" division, work in a slightly more exotic language. Great if your employer gives you time, but using some of your own is worth it too. Work on non critical tools, creative experiments. Sometimes you stumble onto incredibly valuable ideas which would never have popped up if you had strictly followed stakeholder requirements.

3. Listen to your body. If you feel restless, go for a run. If you feel tired, take a nap. If you're stuck, wander around the company. If you feel down, go find a place with more than a dozen trees. And always have a notepad nearby for doodling!

I don't do that often, but...

It's a trap

Last Sunday the boss says:

About this project we are working on, the client stopped paying, so we are not touching it untill we hear back from him.

Spent the whole week learning new technologies, and having a good time.

Guess what happens this morning...
Listen, about that project, they paid and it needs to be delivered by tomorrow morning! shouldn't be a problem, right?

Well actually...

So... m starting my internship tomorrow. 4 months, 6-8 hours a day, 5 days a week.
M VERY anxious and quite frightened to b honest.
Wish me luck guys 😨😨😅😅

It is kinda what I wanted though... contains web parts but also C++ 😍
Tech stack: c++, JS, Python 😅

My fingers itch to do fun projects.. but coming up with a good idea is a pain in the ass.

My desk... Every, fucking, time...

Just got a free Raspberry Pi 3 B+ when I bought another. So I have one without a purpose. Any cool ideias?

That's true

The most easiest explanation of VPN😂

I'm currently developing a retro console powered by pico-8 that I'll be putting in front of the co-driver in my car :) Oh and I'll 3d print a handheld version as well.

Found a stray semicolon in my coffee, did anyone loose one???

I'm hired fulltime!

Any other noob coder here trying to gain the mindset of the pros, enjoy the environment although he doesn't get half the jokes and rants, and trying to fake it till he make it? (:^/)

7 = 5😅

Power shortages plus 3D printers don't mix... FUCK, 2 hours of work.
Next upgrade: UPS.

I swear to fsck, "RTFM" is gonna be engraved on my tombstone

So, got yet another one of those, "Ha! Sending this from your own e-mail address is proof I've infected your machine and recorded video of you synced to your browsing history! Send me bitcoin!" e-mails today. Just with a fun twist:

He claims to have infected my computer on November 8th, 2018 (for later readers: 4 days after the e-mail was sent).

Was about to give them points on creativity the other day; got a Japanese translation of it that was actually pretty spot-on all things considered, and then a Korean copy of it again the next day (just in case I couldn't read English or Japanese, I guess?).

But seriously, you're trying to pull this kind of scam, and can't even tell your bot to successfully pick a date *in the past*?

Attended my first hackathon this weekend. Had a blast and even won a prize for being voted by other hackers as the best/most interesting project. Had a blast and I will definitely be going to more hackathons soon :) Just wanted to share some positivity for those of you who are thinking of going to your first hackathon
