I find it frustrating to work without a mouse.

Any tips for a long flight (15hrs) ?

Every once in a while, execute a SQL update query on a production DB without a where clause.

Full page reloads for a radio button selection change are so annoying...

Gave a 40 minute demo today without any hiccups whatsoever, so I'm all set for the weekend

Are antiviruses worth it ? My subscription expired a few days ago and they're pestering me to renew it. Will Windows Defender be good enough ? Do I really need an anti-virus ?

Sharepoint

*About to start an important call with the client*

Neighborhood dogs: "Now is a good time for us to start barking for no reason"

*Tree falls somewhere in a jungle*

Some Devs: "Fuck Angular..."

Lint rules that keep shouting at you unless you arrange the methods of a class in alphabetical order. What fucking value does it bring? Who fucking cares ? Why do we have them? Whhhyyyyyy ?

Just loooovvve working on a day when the people at the client's have a holiday. No calls, no emails, no standups...just me and IDE

Q: "How high are you?"
Recruiter: "Yes"

Rarest of the rare moments when my client actually said to me that perhaps I was being little bit too optimistic about the estimates I had given for few tasks on the sprint and that I should probably put in more time just to be on the safer side. How often does that happen?

Someone I'm mentoring recently told me they wish they could google like me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

STFU... JUST S.T.F.U.

Every time I come across the phrase "I beg your pardon", my mind reads it out to me in the voice of a lady, with a thick British accent. I don't know why.

Ugghh Firebase.... Need I say more ?

devRant strikes again

I can't be the only one who zooms into random pictures on the internet containing a monitor(with an IDE open) in the background to see what language they're using and whether it's a legit snippet of code.

Fuckers won't even let me use Swagger in DEV environment...

I was entering all the characters in the captcha textbox, out of force of habit, and couldn't realize why it was being marked as invalid. Then I realized...

Got a mail from a recruiter.... offering me a role in a company......where I'm currently working....in the said role.

If you're the most intelligent person in the room, you're in the wrong room

Nothing like having to work on a codebase which has most of the class and variable names in a language you don't speak :/

Curious how devRant's "Top" (weekly) feed works? How are the posts sorted? ++ count? ++ count + comments? ++ and comments each have different weightage?

The posts seem to be in a haphazard order

Nuff said...

I still nuke Ctrl + S so often while coding/editing a document that I sometimes think i'm just borderline maniac. This is one of those paranoid habits that has stuck with me since my early coding days, despite a majority of editors having auto save enabled. What other weird/awkward habits do you have that you cannot get rid of no matter what?

Devs: "Our app has an intuitive user interface..."

Users:

Its all fun and games until your malfunctioning software costs people their lives - if you're just starting out as a dev or in the "ain't nobody got time for writing tests" camp, I highly recommend you to lookup and read about the Therac-25 incidents during the 80s.

Even if you're not working on a life-critical/mission-critical application, the realization of the impact that us devs can have on the society can push you to become a better developer producing quality software...

Am I the only one that thinks Linq's .Any() and .All() methods are more appropriately named for the use case they cater to, as opposed to their JS counterparts .some() and .every() ?
.some() doesn't justify the fact that it returns true if *atleast* one item in the collection matches the predicate. Should've been named something like .atleastOne() or something else.
Moreover, there isn't any harm to just use the same method names as in Linq ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
