Arrived today, hyped!

I have real-world experience with MongoDB, MySQL, Firebase, and caching with Redis.

A colleague in ops recommended this book a while back and I thought I'd give it a whirl to better understand what other options I have available.

Its 2017 and people still don’t write RESTful apps? This is childish man

When I show a school mate how to send http requests using the requests library, instead of urllib in python

I had a recruiter contact me today, calling me Andrew in the process. Believe it or not my name isn't Andrew, and the email address they sent it to was me@MYFULLNAME.com, so they should be able to get my name right.

I responded to them pointing that out and advising they never contact me again. (In a somewhat sassy way).

In a well crafted apology I was informed that they had a great track record and that mistakes happen. Here's the email's subject line:

RE: Hi.. opportunity in New Haven, CT (Downtown- next to train station)- RUDE DO NOT CONTACT EVER AGAIN

I responded more kindly that I appreciated the apology but the subject line confirmed my position of "not interested."

This was followed up by them trying to "recall" the email, and resend it... Like I didn't notice the insult in the subject line of your apology...

Nicely done, nicely done.

So many open tabs that Goole chrome fails to count them

Great thing that nodejs cannot run in shared hosting.. Absolutely fucking great

Once you understand Promises, all in life makes sense.

Ice King. Lonely, weird, has a penguin for a debugger and doesn't do as he commands... Yup, that's a Linux guy alright.

Wait a second...🤔

Bitcoin just went from $2600 to $1870
And ethereum is now $140
Cryptocurrency markrt capacity went almost from $100B to $60B

Left the first proper job of my life in just 9hrs.

Ain't this the joke of the year.

once for all

So I was able to get the devrant loading animation to black!

The ability to read .min.js files

Well yeah. He is right!

A Geologist and a developer are sitting next to each other on a long flight from LA to NY. The Geologist leans over to the developer and asks if he would like to play a fun game. The Developer just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks. The Geologist persists and explains that the game is real easy and a lotta fun. He explains, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5. Then you ask me a question, and if I don't know the answer, I'll pay you $5." Again, the Developer politely declines and tries to get to sleep. The Geologist now somewhat agitated, says, "OK, if you don't know the answer you pay me $5, and if I don't know the answer, I'll pay you $50!"

This catches the Developer's attention, and he sees no end to this torment unless he plays, so he agrees to the game. The Geologist asks the first question. "What's the distance from the Earth to the moon?"

The Developer doesn't say a word, but reaches into his wallet, pulls out a five dollar bill and hands it to the Geologist.

Now, it's the developer's turn. He asks the Geologist, "What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down on four?" The Geologist looks up at him with a puzzled look. He takes out his laptop computer and searches all of his references. He taps into the Airphone with his modem and searches the net and the Library of Congress. Frustrated, he sends e-mail to his co-workers -- all to no avail.

After about an hour, he wakes the Engineer and hands him $50. The developer politely takes the $50 and turns away to try to get back to sleep.

The Geologist is more than a little miffed, shakes the developer and asks, "Well, so what's the answer?"

Without a word, the developer reaches into his wallet, hands the Geologist $5, and turns away to get back to sleep.

Hahaha 😂😂

@dfox I just double tapped a rant to ++ it and then, after I double tapped, I got this:

What is your GOTO song to get in the zone to code? Mine is Pagan Revolution by Elvenking 🤘

Who else uses Firefox over everything else? I switched from chrome recently and I don't regret it!

If I spend 50% of my time in meetings, 30% of my time doing things for support/helpdesk which I'm not allowed to automate, 10% as a technical consult and 10% helping other devs... am I even a developer anymore?

Best sorting algorithm ever.
Sleep sort.
😂

The password is not a real password if you get it right in first attempt while logging in!

Android development is like:
- 30% of the time is coding & debugging
- 70% of the time is waiting for Gradle to build

Is it just me or has the appearance of trolls had an uptick on devRant? Is this a side effect of success or the price we pay? God save all of our souls.

How to plug a USB in a USB port:

1. Try to insert it
2. If it doesn't go, rotate it 180 degrees
3. Of it doesn't go, rotate it back
4. There you go

== instead of ===

Is it just my preview or are there more rants with the topic "lazy"?
It's almost like devRant is trying to tell me something. 😐

Dear Axis of evil(Java+Android SDK) ,

Go fuck yourselves.

Sincerely,
A Windows developer
