Precise, every programmer has been through this.

Met a guy today who in all seriousnes said that our M.O. should be "hard to write, hard to read". Dude. Shit like this is why nobody want to collaborate with you..

ISP's technicians and customer support people who have no clues about networking.

Ummm, thanks but no...

For new or young devs

If you think you're like a 8/10 in a language........ you're probably a 2

Don't copy-paste the code. Type it out. You'll learn a lot that way.

Random Guy: So you wrote all this in Java?
Me: JavaScript
Random Guy: Yea. What i said. It's the same!
Me: *triggered*

This is actually an advice given to me:

"Only ever release your code on a Friday, preferably after 6pm. If you're not confident enough to do that, your code is not ready."

Who says dev doesn't require courage.

Naming advice for new devs:

Test
Test1
Testtest
Final

You may have the latest IDE with all the cool interactions and what not, but knowing how to use either Vim or Emacs on the command line will take you super far in your dev career.

I'm almost done

Writing cool code might be your passion but shipping it is your job. Sometimes they are not the same thing unfortunately... and its ok!

Learn Everything. Even if your job does not require HTML or some other language, learn them.

Unexpectedly a feature status changed to disabled:
"It doesnt matter. If nobody noticed, it means that nobody is using it."

After that my point of view is:
Just because you dont use your Car Airbag everyday, it doesnt allow your mechanic to keep it disabled.

Devs are known to give up quickly especially beginners...all I can say to them is..

...there is nothing like smooth mountains, you have to go through the ragged edges and valley's to get to the top...

Don't stop Coding... and dont give up.

Never get too comfortable with a language or technology. By the time you master it, it'll probably change. Be adaptable and always be willing to learn new things.

Don't buy in to the hype, find what you like to code in, pursue that...

Forget, "I'll make the identation and commenting once I finnished coding this". There is no such thing.

Always develop with security in mind. Your future self and colleagues will thank you

I honestly don't understand people. They are unable to understand easy to use apps when you provide clearly labeled labels yet they use apps like Snapchat which apart from being the worst designed app I have ever seen (it brings SD820 to knees) is unintuitive as hell with no difficulty. How is this even possible.

Also on a side note, go fuck yourself Snapchat. And if any of Snapchat devs are reading this: " go fucking kill yourself. You don't deserve to live after creating such a piece of shit. Even a fresh out of college intern does better job than you. You think this is good? I have never seen anything worse than it. Even fucking in-house government apps are miles better and more intuitive than you. All your ripoffs from Instagram stories to facebooks new clone and others are better than you. Whoever thinks this POS is good enough deserves to be burnt."

I don't want no sticker and no stressball, i just want to read some dev rants and design my devRant avatar

IP vs Mask

When you're too busy ranting...

My boss wrote the password to access the office on his whiteboard, which you could see from outside of the building.

This week's rant has opened up my eyes on security leeks I didn't know I had, thanks devrant

Api key and secret on js variables...

Boot up a Linux live usb on a Windows machine, then rename cmd.exe to utilman.exe and after rebooting select accessibility options which now opens a command line and then 'net user username owned' to reset user 'username' password to 'owned'. Been using this for years..

Sure. Just unplug my ethernet cable without asking. Not like I'm trying to work or anything, right?

Websites that have a password length limit that's way too short and/or don't allow symbols.
Example, I think EA has a password limit to 15 characters and doesn't allow spaces, underscores or even symbols, meaning that your password must be only letters and numbers, which is quite unsecure.

Whenever a site tells me the password I entered has already been used? I mean how are you supposed to know if you are salting and hashing the password.. Oh wait you probably just save it in plain text!! Please don't!!
