Missing those times where a 320x240 or 640x480 resolution were enough to have fun.

Client: we are using Scrum. Next week we have sprint review organized by the project manager.
Me: it’s not Scrum.
Client: in the next sprint we work on a mockup not releasable in production.
Me: it’s not Scrum.
Client: sprint backlog is changed again, at the end we must do everything that is written in the contract with that fixed amount of money.
Me: definitely not Scrum.
Client: we are using Scrum.
Me: Ok.

Hello, I’m learning Scala because of the use of Cloudera / Spark stack in a project and I am wondering if any of you use scala for different stack or projects. Thanks.

Many years in the same company waiting for an improvement in my career. Result: role change from Solution Manager to ICT consultant (better before) and Salary increase of 20% (better now). I simply do not understand my company behavior. Happy and Sad at the same time. What do you think? Titles do matter or not?

‪Wakeup 5am, stay in bed until 5:45, shower, dress, breakfast, exit, 2km walk. Train 20mins late. Will find my desk occupied by a colleague.‬

My new Apple has arrived! Happy New Year 2017!

Just started a Coursera Machine Learning course. Suddenly I feel like a 20 years old guy going at university. Better than feeling like a 44 years old adult working on shitty things like every day...

It's been over a week now without writing a single line of code. Maybe this is a reason for being so sad?

!rant - I live in this city. Love Italy :)

That nice sensation, thanks guys :D

I'm a little afraid of what I'm doing. I just asked my boss to change my current role, almost on site, with a new one requested by the global function of my company. If they accept I will be traveling >80% of the time. I know I will miss my little daughters but I also know that this is maybe the last chance for a step forward in my career. I'm sharing my feelings only with my brother and devrant people.

Wikipedia says that a nerd/geek lacks social skills. They should see this amazing community, thanks DevRant :)

My little daughter attached it on my laptop :-)

My first AI program in the 1985 on Apple IIe (64kb ram computer) was answering simple questions with yes and no. Everyone were shocked with precision of about 100% when I was typing and 70-80% when others were typing. My parents were scared and skeptical. How it works? Store the time between the first key pressure and the following, when it is larger than 1 second the answer is yes, otherwise no. They say the question, you know the answer and type accordingly. When they want to write the question themselves, you try to force their typing speed if possible. I was 12 years old and it was very funny.

I just realized that my collegues don't like my new mechanical keyboard, while I like it very much. I told them that it's not that noisy, it's only a different sound. I demonstrated that typing on a not mechanical keyboard with brute force! Now they like it.

Time is relative. It's been 10 minutes now from when I inserted my smartcard credentials on my workstation (NO SSD) with Windows 7, McAfee Antivirus, Crypted HD and other company policies and useless software. So boring...

And they ask me why I need an SSD right now!

When everything doesn't compile, who you gonna call?

for OSX users: please comment with the top 3 reasons of why do you prefer it over Windows and Linux. Thanks a lot.

Me to my team: demo to the client is postponed, we'll show it the day after tomorrow.

Them: nice, then we can put in production also the new feature xyz.

Me: mmm... Is it tested and everything ok? Then yes, let's deploy it.

Bad decision. Now everything is not working. Rollback needed!

Hey Ranters! Why do you comment posts without ++ it?

Me: please return http code 202 in your http service.

My collegue: ok.

After one hour...

Me: you are returning 200, I told you 202. Let me see the code:

OMFG she was writing the string "202" in the response body!!!

I do not know how to escape from all of this shit.

My Boss: When are you going to finish?

Me: There is a bug, I'm solving it, I need more time.

My Boss: Why have you introduced a bug in your code and now solving it? It were more simple if you didn't created any bug!

Me: WTF!!!

Should I go to work today?

I just want to thank Apple that has switched the Alt and Cmd keys. Every time I use an external keyboard I thank them...

Map/filter/reduce in a tweet:

map([🌽, 🐮, 🐔], cook)
=> [🍿, 🍔, 🍳]

filter([🍿, 🍔, 🍳], isVegetarian)
=> [🍿, 🍳]

reduce([🍿, 🍳], eat)
=> 💩

How to exit from this hole?

I like cables...

An entire week near my little bro in the hospital. Everything is fine now. And beside that my Swift app is almost complete...
