Hi All, I need some advice.

I have been working my ass off for a foreign client for 2 years(2018 college passout). I'll be getting an onsite opportunity in some time for a few months. I'm planning to study masters in Germany after I come back. The main reason I want to go onsite is because the pay is good and it could cover a lot of my expenses.

Would it be unethical to go onsite, work, come back and resign immediately(with notice period)?

Any suggestions how to tackle the situation because I also need some recommendations from my work place to apply for Masters and I'm not sure if they'll give me in this situation?

On a road side bench. I was testing a GPS application I did back in college. The application stopped working when I get to the destination. I figured the problem right away and couldn't resist fixing it immediately.

[ Few hours later...] (It was a small change but you know, Android studio on a low end laptop)

Tested and completed the app successfully. Oh and by the way, it was 11 in the night. I can just imagine what the people that saw me that night could have thought. 🤣

I is sad.

The only reason I'm still using WhatsApp or Facebook is because my classmates have a social group in which they share important information and tbh that's easy than dealing with emails.

Have to deal with bullshittery for one more year.

Postpone this one last time!???
The fuck you think you are Windows.

Why the fuck does a game need access to my contacts?

Wow thanks play music for the handy navigation shortcut. Now I can hear the previous songs again and again! 😑

Dear god, id like to file a bug report(see attached video)

If anyone here wants to know how a generic engineering college will be like in India, here's the video

Do watch it. It is accurate af.
I don't like the education system in India, so this video hit me right in the feels.

Sneak peek:
I didn't choose this engineering life, neither did engineering life choose me. It was shoved down my throat by my teachers while my hands were tied to my back by my friends and my parents watched in silence.

And for the love of LINUS! Stop asking me to hack your bf/gf 's social media accounts.

Fuck exposure!
May be you should get some exposure of how things work😒

Whenever I hide warnings during compilation, I feel like SUPPRESSING FIRE!!!

Stupid fucking idiot startup asshole hired me as an intern. Promised me the money after the work is done. We were friendly during the internship. The work is done and now it's been a week and still no money yet. He's saying it'll take some time. To beat you to shit it'll take some time you asshole!

Lesson learned: Never ever be friendly with the guy who hires you. Like never!!

Also money later isn't a good thing.

Legit comments on a Facebook Hacker cup solutions post. Like wtf ?

So what is rubber duck debugging?

She: I like people who takes risks.
He : I develop in a prod server.
She: My place or you place? 😉

Since every piece of software is developed by us, I sincerely request everyone to keep dark themes as the default theme.
Thanks.

I hate it when devs use value attribute instead of place holder especially when you know that input text is definitely going to change.

Hey I just met you
And this is crazy
But here's my mail address
So spam me maybe

Finally YouTube implemented something from the porn websites. I'm talking about quick video review on thumbnails.

Sometimes NVIDIA fucks up big time.
Last time I was a writing a UI application in Java. I took some break and updated the NVIDIA drivers so that you know it will 'increase' gaming performance. Next day I was trying to launch the app and the UI doesn't show up. It took me over half an hour to realise that there was no fault in my code and it was the fucking update.

I hate YouTube recommendations. They just show you the same videos again and again after some time.

Don't know if reported already.
Photos exciting some size limit.

Just wanted to drop this here. It's pretty useful

So I have been using my HP laptop(r007tx) for over two years and a half now. Here are it's top 'features'

1. A dead pixel on the screen. Slowly it started to grow every time I close and open the lap and eventually it grew to a horizontal line across the screen. Luckily it was under warranty.
2. Volume is very low. Can't be fixed.
3. Broken hinges. Never had it faced any impact.
4. WiFi adapter stopped working after an year. Bought an external adapter.
5. Monitor frame started to come off.
6. Battery is shit. Explained it a bit detail here.

7. DVD player doesn't work.

Most of the problems came just after one year. If you are thinking to buy HP laptop do pay for extended warranty.

But still successfully running it because of the software that every dev has developed.
Kudos!

Boss!!!
Boss isn't a person.
It's not a name.
It's a feeling.
It's an emotion.
It's something that you are afraid of even in ur dreams.
It's something that pushes you, shouts at you, criticises you, shouts at you again, but at the end he gives you appreciation, money and fame(sometimes).

No matter how shitty the pay is, it is something. Better than nothing.
If you don't like it, go to another boss.
or better
BE YOUR OWN BOSS.

That moment when you hire someone for a small part of the protect and they suggest you to re-write the entire project using a different language/framework.

I know this is supposed to be in bossRant. But hey not all bosses aren't developers.

So this came up when I was trying to search for length property in JS.

Sex talk between programmers.

She: I'm a virgin.
He: Don't worry. They call me the virginslayer007.
She: Oh! So how many virgins have you slayed till now?
He: That would be ONE in a few minutes.
She: So u r also a virgin then..
He: Don't worry. I watched so many video tutorials. We just have to do exactly as they did. Best thing is that it can be done both for testing and production purposes.
She: Let's stick to testing purposes for now.
