Hey @dfox, I have an idea of a devRant project that I would like to build but I need to have an api for it. Is it available as of yet and if so where do I get it?

Was making a text based console game last year. Had to know natural human responses. Got too tired of it and make it print "Uhh, I've never had a lot of education, please use easy words."

This is one of the biggest hack in my life:

We had a database project in our 2nd year of university where we had to create some complex database and input a lot of random data like postcode, names, weathers, age etc etc.

While everyone was struggling to copy paste random datas in the sql file to generate the data, I used an API from a website using Java to generate all the data.

People came to me and took me as a very brilliant person who does his project on time. I never told that to anyone

try {
RiskyFunction()
//a gazillion lines more
}
catch() {}

//Wow! The app is not breaking anymore!

Because if you fail, you will be executed ...

Me: "No problem, it's completed"

Boss: "Wait you didn't follow change protocol you need to allow 5 business days for review and approval"

Me: ....

PM: "This is a critical bug fix needed before we submit to Apple."
Me: *reads bug story*
Me: "Wait, this is only repo on a Galaxy S5?"
PM: "Yup! It's stopship."
Me: 😑 "No."

When you look at a code you wrote a year ago - "this is shit, how could I have done this 😖"
