Wrapping up a project, I am cleaning code to give the customer the source code. The project had lasted over a year. I joined the team a few months back and it frustrated me how messy the code was. In my previous teams, any new resource was told to stick with the rules, and eventually they became embedded in them. The case seemed opposite here. Developers who wrote clean code became lax (they made me even more pissed).

Now I have the job of getting rid of warnings, formatting issues etc and I do not say this lightly, but, there was no fear of god in anyone who worked on this codebase. The code formatting I have seen makes me wanna...

It's 6am and I've already started my work day because I am my most productive first thing in the morning. When they debate against WFH and flexibility, they don't talk about how different people feel more awake and present at different times. I know devs who work better in the dead of the night. 9 to 5 in office just ain't it.

Joined a new company and the first few weeks were a complete bore (didn't have access to anything). Ended up wasting time instead of using it elsewhere. Now that I am swamped with work I've the sudden spark to learn every skill I thought I should pick up. Does this happen to anyone else? Motivation comes only on busy days.

If a developer was having a slump (unable to close tickets, find solutions, get mind to work)
What could they possibly do to fix it?

I just wanna sleep on not Monday.

I like the clicks of mouse, the taps of keys, sound of central cooling, the low tone conversations but if someone near me is in a long meeting and constantly talking, I NEED my headphones with music blasting

anybody else's motivation for blockchain and web3 dev go down with cryptocurrencies value?

some days all the work i do the entire day is the work needed to pretend you're working

still can't believe someone actually hired me as dev and then multiple companies tried poaching me (one tried twice, another tried four times)

what are they all on

why am i too scared at times to even try?

had been working from home and that was my plan for today as well but got called to office on a MONDAY for some hardware related stuff and guess what? the stuff related to it isn't here. thanks

Starting my day with 15 emails that I urgently need to respond to. I hate Thursdays. It's just meetings and emails and more meetings and more emails. No time to get work done.

why do i have to work

Retros have got to be one of the most boring meetings ever

Today I decided to take up the task (a growing pain) my team had been putting off for some reason for a while, and safe to say seeing it getting cleared has been satisfying

everyone's having a bad monday because daylight saving kicked in and everyone's calendar is now messed up (employees in different countries, some's daylight saving kicked in, some's didn't)

I'm starting my Monday morning with zero emails and zero slack messages

I have the next three days off and highkey wish today and Friday could have been off too

slacked off on friday on something i had to deliver. did it today in about two hours just to get done with it. motivation is weird

is coding amnesia a thing? i ran into an error few weeks back and today when i ran into it i completely forgot any knowledge i had of it

it's monday morning. ofc the first thing i do is open devrant to see what hell monday is brining on others.

Did my first complete CI/CD from jenkins build from scratch and it's a huge win for me

it's a high prio week in my project and ive to be on site for it and the idea is hurtful

Genuine question, who reads programming books focused on a language?

My number of issues resolved per sprint dropped since I have been switched to a new project and I feel it's gonna bite me in my arse

i burnt 3 fingers on each of my hands cooking yesterday(picked up a lid with bare hands) and have butt loads of coding to so let's see what wins

I have not worked all day today and have only attended meetings. Going to call in a half day since I am in a total unhealthy (cheese puffs and fried food) kind of day today and have just been in my bed binge watching.

I need a 10 hour sleep followed by 10 days off from work

I have personally struggled a little with CMake always. I usually have to take help from some senior dev. Today I was able to figure something out on my own so this is an achievement story. Think I should treat myself with a book

How is Monday after Superbowl a working day? It should be a holiday
