Why does it matter if I scroll my mouse with my middle finger?

You keep using your index finger while I stick with my middle finger.

Arg. I messed up bad today. Updated 17k records in database by mistake and had to rollback and apologize...

I won't rush on a task for rest of the day

During snowstorm yesterday in New York City, not even half of the developers showed up.

I wasn't able to get much work done.

Curse you mother nature!

Arg, Visual Studio 2015, stop trying to fix my comment indentation!

It's a comment and. It is NOT part of the code. Leave my formatting alone!!!

Arrrrrg... Resetting Windows 10... After 5 minutes still stuck at 1%

LIRR trains canceled?

No problem. Staying at work late like a boss.

I get "bullied" for not drinking coffee!
Any other tea drinkers here???

I am the only one at work in my cubicle.

Happy end of year to me.

Ah. As someone learning Python coming from .NET background, function names starting with a lower case is killing me.

I just spent 5 minutes figuring out why "PIL.Image.Open" didn't work. It's "open" not "Open"!!!

I lost 30+ lbs since May.

I feel alienated at work since I look less and less like other developers at work...

I don't know if I should call this a rant or not. I spent most of X-mas hacking away my code I haven't touched over a year and released the library to NuGet. Woot!

This has to be the way devs should spent holidays

ProjectEuler problem difficulty level increases logarithmically after question 50. Question 60+ seems to take 10 times longer to solve than previous 50. I give up solving questions to write code to run within within 1 minute (which is a general rule specified).

I need to relearn Calculous...

Arrrrg. API change totally broke my library and 8 out of 149 tests are failing...

It feels good to be a gangsta. Convinced my coworkers to use Dapper.net (used by StackOverflow) as ORM of the choice instead of old internal ORM which heavily utilizes DataSet.

Not getting a bonus sucks...

Taking a sick day here.

Checked work email and
BOOM! I can't get a rest any more...

You can't got forward learning a new technology without Hello World.

First step to learning Django. Wish me luck!

Trying new stuff always excites me and anxious at the same time.

47 tests passed for Cracking the Code Interview questions.

Time for a drink.

I avoided a vampire attack today while fixing a compile error.

I was simply trying to decrement a variable...

i +- 1

Wearing neck ties wears me out.

I seriously don't see the point of IT department having to wear ties...

Why are all the darn phones made so slippery that you are forced to buy covers?

DevRant should have another category for bashing/ranting about Sysadmins since we usually deal with many incompetent ones.

I see more and more posts about them as I see growing number of devranters.

Ah, I haven't touched VB.Net for about three months and I was let down by excessive verbosity again.

Next task: Refactor VB.net modules into C# libraries one by one...

I was royally screwed when my college changed major language from Modular-3 to Java in my junior year.

They were so different in the beginning, I spent weeks trying to figure out this OOP principle.

Please give non-freshman students heads up before making such drastic changes on what you teach...

I defied my HelpDesk technicians by buying my own mouse and a keyboard.

Vanilla generic peripherals seem to prevent me from expressing my creativity.

I've spent a day trying to figure out a code logic. Couldn't figure out why some codes that shouldn't be commented out are commented out.

Out of frustration, I went to see the user. She explained to me the logic behind it and I got it right away within 5 minutes.

Ask your user when in doubt and in trouble figuring out the logic.

Rant without a good reason is just a whine

I feel sorry for devs at TEAVANA. I can almost hear "You're Fired".

Who's having the worse day than these guys?

This was 5 hours ago and I still can't place an order. Worst time for this happen since today's one of the biggest sale days in US.

I just spent 5 minutes trying to fix an error saying that I am missing a ";".

I saw a ; at the end of statement but I kept on getting the error.

After cleaning the monitor the ; disappeared and I was able to see the problem.

Clean your monitor once in a while.
