I'm gonna start a software company and cleverly split up the work into pieces so that I can present them to potential employees as "coding challenges" during the interview and never actually hire them.

Guys it's not cool to re-post stuff from Reddit to devrant.

Infinity:

The idea: everybody who sees this rant, takes a screenshot of the last screenshot in the comments... Lits see how many layers of toolbars we can get 😈😈😈😂😂😂😂

Worked whole day from home.
Came today to work, realized i forgot to git push.

That wasn't so hard :D

I managed to scrape all the images using my Java api in a couple of lines of code, used Apache Fluent to quickly download all of them, and imgflip to turn them into a gif.

sweet old memories!

when the customer says: "we want this but better and cheaper"

Use Toggl app. And you realize how much time you waste on searching, troubleshooting, etc

pomodoro technic + it helps giving estimates down the line

I had to rename 30 files the same way.
I just wrote an app for this.

Arch, Emacs(configured to my liking) and ambient music.

10 minutes of eye rest every hour. Believe me, your eyes will thank you after 6 hours.

I would recomend pomodoro technique

30 min power nap

Assuming Mac: Alfred for OS such as searching and opening apps, using spaces to setup smart project areas, divvy app to quickly size and move around the windows, terminal shortcuts to open files in the OS or in an editor, transmit for hidden files and dragging between panes and server + occasional mounting for preprocessing, inbox-zero mentality, a properly setup google drive app so you don't email forked files back and fourth, beanstalk for deployment of larger stacks, surge.sh for targeted front-end sites, Ember CLI or brunch for build pipelines, CodePen for UI experiments outside of the project, slack instead of email, pick up the telephone and just call for clarification more often, stylus is easier to maintain then scss, hire designers that actually know what their job is if you can. For arduous WordPress administration, rightclick open in new tab for everything - or half your time will be pushing the back button, wp-migrate pro, and in general try to get out of WP when you can.

Stop reading articles on which framework/library is better, pick one and start actually writing code.

... Only to then discover that this library is utterly broken and/or undocumented and you have to start over again.
GODDAMNIT JS I HATE YOUR ASS

Use pomello with trello to code with pomodoro technique and keep track of your productivity

Functional programming instead of imperative

I created a script and chatbot to talk to people online for me, while I did other things.

Restoring my phone on a monthly basis, to get rid off all the extraneous shit that piles up after a while

F.lux to keep me going all night long.
Without eye strain :)

So sick of my colleague who keeps writing:
if (something) {
doWork();
} else {
}

He insists that it is the best code style to include the empty else clause. WRONG YOU #!*&@!

Joined a company as a junior developer and have been working there for almost 4 years.

Too scared to leave because I don't know if I'm good enough to apply for a non junior role :(

Is this the so called "imposter syndrome?"

Life is hard.
Just met a developer..

I work as an Enterprise Java Developer. When people ask me what I do, I tell them I work with beans.

So I just told my manager that I want to resign my job.

I have decided to accept the offer from a German software company. First time working overseas, full of uncertainty.

I don't know I am excited or nervous now.
