I waited until the scratches started appearing and now they're covering up all the damage
-
@yarwest Yeah but it's probably not something the average Joe would think of or figure out
-
Sorry but it's 100% YikYak for devs
-
@yarwest Spoofing a MAC address is not that easy and if he knew it was his MAC being blocked he'd probably confront you first surely?

Go above the boss and get him fired
-
Just get a normal job until you have the skills to be employed as a programmer but make sure you keep learning and making your own projects
-
+1 to seeing a picture!
-
@alertJS You don't have to open source to be a developer
-
Combine the two in a mocha. I sometimes mix hot chocolate powder into my espresso before adding the milk
-
Sounds like a dissection 😂

I've never seen a 5" inch floppy in my life (lol)
-
I get this so much. Sometimes I wonder if I should be more confident but then the next 10 runs knock some sense into me
-
@abdallahesam But Ditto is fugly

Politicians in Europe who have no idea how technology works. Ask most people now and I guarantee like 80% still have no idea what cookies are. Hopefully a positive outcome of Brexit might be losing this pointless piece of legislation 😂
-
@avneesh But just like a recipe, reading the ingredients list (function/variable names) doesn't necessarily tell you how they're used or what part they have in the process

This is fairly common - the fastest handwriting speed Wikipedia mentions is about 48 wpm, with the average being closer to 14wpm

In my view, that's 2 days that could be spent more productively had there been documentation. It is a good skill to be able to understand code that other people have written but a more efficient solution would be to at least get a high level overview first. The amount of resources you need for basic docs for development is not a lot. You don't need to specify every function, but an explanation of how the system is architectured overall can save time - that could be 10-15 minutes of writing.
Do you think there is something you gain from not having docs? -
I heartily disagree. That's probably good enough for a small project only you will ever work on that you work on more than twice a year. But for new people, there is no point forcing them to decipher code to understand the architecture of the project when they could just read a explaining it.

I love windows 10 too! I think it is nicer than 7 e.g. explorer has some dope new features
-
@BlackjackCF True, but a lot of people have it worse
-
Of all the underappreciated jobs, I don't think develops have it too bad - at least we get paid decent money
-
I've got it on my Nexus and it's got some nice little bits 😊 The new emojis look great
-
This emoji has you covered 🤦
-
This is what assert(false) is for
-
I hope the money/other benefits are worth it!
-
I've found the docs on Angular.io are pretty good? I read the developer guide all the way through and that gave me a pretty good start
-
The zsh built in aliases are great - I'd highly recommend them.
git add -> ga
git commit -> gc
git commit --amend -> gc!
git push -> go etc
Though I am now so used to it that I'll happily type those in other, less well configured environments
