Because of job demand.

🐱🖥️
I was thinking about my next cat, and thought how I would name it, as I like original names.
So I thought maybe, now I'm a developer (my cat is 10 years old, back then I was in primary school), I could name it after some technology I like but can't understand (like cats)... How many cats are called C#?

So, how would you name a cat based on some technology that would fit as a cat name for you?

My job description is software developer, and that's the thing I do less because I have also been assigned tasks from other areas that nobody wants to do. Yeah sure, make the IT guy do it, he's not busy and doesn't do much anyway, right? Oh but wait until they do need something coded...

I love JS. And then this things happen... I want to learn TypeScript so much (not really related as I don't know if it avoids this).

Btw, I ended up finding ++n works too, so in the end it was 'Question '+ ++n;

What's your favourite non-alphanumeric piece of code?
Mine is "!!+" (JS, numeric string to boolean), second place is "+ ++" (many languages, plus the next variable increased by one).
They just remind me of the crazy world we live in.

Learning Python as a first language. Or Pascal. It's a tie between mainstream informal and obsolete formal education.

Excel crashes after some minutes (sometimes seconds) of working perfectly if I have the WakaTime Excel Add-in... correlation doesn't mean causation, but wtf?
I want to report it but I don't have the time to look for logs and Excel shit.

Stupid, useless members that do nothing and just eat free Individuales and Sin Culpa. Wait-

Of course the plugin didn't work as expected.
Of course I had to fix it with 3 sets of 2-3 CSS rules.
Of course...

Some stats on what I've been doing all 2020:
222 working days.
60% of the days, working on dev stuff.
80% of the days, working on 2nd responsibility (legal documentation for clients).
From April, 60% of the 222 days working on the 3rd responsibility I got assigned in, you guessed it, April (KPI making).
So basically 70% of my job is no longer what I signed up for.
That's what I want to change this year.

Best: Learning React JS
Worst:
Having to rush an online training module for our app in a weekend.
It was so raw that I had to alter the database by hand every time we needed a different training.
Awful, stressing, and boring.

Lesson learned.
Don't update the WordPress theme.
Fuck you, "dev" that made our webpage.

Disclaimer: I haven't done much research.

Do you have any good course / tutorial / guide to using Web Sockets with PHP or Node? I'm looking forward to knowing about the matter but I'm just asking here before just in case someone has a good / recommended resource.

It's interpreted. :(

How much of an asshole you have to be to say the poster doesn't know PHP and bitch about "security problems" in an answer to a clearly newbie question about forms and redirection on Quora?

I will be investigating but I'll let the question here in case someone knows a way and is kind enough to share it...

WordPress site in Spanish, we need a multilingual plugin or something to let the visitor click a flag or something and see the site translated in English (by hand, no online translator service required).

This would be so easy to code, but they chose WordPress over malleability. c:

Any plugin or idea?

Guess who implemented a whole new feature in 3.5 lines of code and a simple CSS class.
This awesome guy.
Take that, frameworks.

Just original content, guys, nothing to see here.

How is 2 U$D/hour?
Fuck this country's stupid people and democracy.

Main reason is not being maleable, rejecting new stuff as the field changes constantly. The rest can more or less be tolerated (what can be tolerated for any other job, that is).

Does this happen to someone else? She actively seeks that spot. I love her and I love to spend time with her and share the space, but I have to work, dear...

Being able to build automating tools and scripts. It's cool building your own tools, and even cooler if you like the process.

I saw this clip the other day, and it made me think of frontend validation vs backend validation.
I firmly believe we developers can be thought of as wizards.

Boldo tea

Guess what dumbass forgot to take into account markup for the database field and now everything is chopped off.
That's right. Me. :)
Lesson learned though.

Why do people keep using .doc files? I've just downloaded a ZIP with 4 Word documents, 3 .docx and ONE .doc, what's wrong with whoever did this?

Why is the most useful Explorer shortcut (rename element, F2) besides the least useful one (Help, F1)??
And why does Help open in the browser? Not the default one, but EDGE.
Fuck them. I'll find a way of disabling F1 one day...

The face they make when they find out that instead of

a,
b,
c

I go

a
,b
,c

Totally worth it.

2 days (actually about 4 hours) of battling a stupid CSS grid arrange that wouldn't behave.
Turns out 1fr (aka fill parent) works unless the child is another grid. In that case it forgets and just stretches the freaking parent as if there was no rule whatsoever.
If you have problems with CSS grids, consider trying flattening the markup...

What you are seeing is a serialized 16 Word pages, 50 questions multiple choice quiz, I had to manually transform as it needed some formatting like subscripts and superscripts and the guy that did this did some awful things, like using spaces to make some text go to the next line...
I need to make that quiz builder asap.
