Just got the news that I can start house hunting next week. My office will soon have a new home 💪🏼

The company hired a Senior Project Manager (SPM) and two months in we had the following conversation:

SPM: Hey, go talk to the project stakeholders and get the requirements for the project.

Me: Uhm, isn't the PM supposed to go and gather the requirements?

SPM: I'll go check with the stakeholders. We don't have a PM :)

Me: You are the SPM... Which is the same thing?

SPM: hmmm... I'll go ask them and get back to you.

GFG, you've been here for two months, are supposed to be a senior with many years under your belt as a PM and yet know nothing about your job. You don't even know that you're a PM.

One more time.

ppi != resolution != size ! = aspect ratio

ppi is a measurement of sharpness.

Resolution is the depth of pixels.

Size is width and height mesured in units.

Aspect ratio is the... ratio of width to height.

Devrant is not fucking stackoverflow.
You don't ask questions regarding your code or your project here!

The only street with superpowers!

I know..Im sorry

I started in 2015 at my current job. The first contract was for a year, very normal in the Netherlands. Also, I had only 6 months of professional experience with programming.
I already knew that I would replace an older colleague who's going to retire and I would get some of his responsibilities.

One year later (6 months ago) I had an evaluation with my boss. He told me he was proud I learned everything so quick and offered me a permanent position and wanted me to take over one of the major products we sell. Even more, he wanted me to decide how to change the framework since it's over 20years old. (Multiple languages combined)

I am currently working on a new design and UX as well, which I presented last year. The love it.

I've never felt so appreciated and valued before.

Please, stop these bullshit 2017 function like things. Thank you.

Happy New Year

This project must have taken a toll on this guy

This community is by far the best thing I've discovered in 2016. Been lurking for a while, thought it was time to post this.
System.out.println("HAPPY NEW YEAR!");

Our company got attacked last month by what i believe was a code time bomb from a ex employee. And it was brutal, website hacked, email server not responding, locked out from database servers. The IT department asked for my help and I was more than happy to do it. Long story short I got every thing back working smoothly. The IT guys ask for a favor to not include this in my monthly progress report. Fine by me. But then they went out and tokd the top management that they are teaching me about the networks and servers so thats why I was working with them last month. Fucking assholes. Not going to help them any more.

Had my first interview today for an internship!!
Say they'll contact me after New year!!
Let's hope i get it!!

Completed a project in summer for a client based on Laravel and kept working on other projects based on same framework. Today went back to add some functionality ended up feeling miserable looking at my own code. Don't know how to feel about this.

This cracked me up...😂😂

When you have motivation for coding early in the morning but Windows would like to update your PC just after you have turned it on

That's it, I'm fucking done with this fucking bullshit of a year, really, everyone is fucking dying, just end already

When you check the comments under GitHub and most of them are +1

Little reverse bot psychology

The Infinite Loop :p

I think I've reached the point where I've been programming for so long that I have off by one errors doing normal math by hand. Nothing more humbling than getting beat out to a bunch of simple math problems to a grade schooler.

So I teach a Lego mindstorms class to 5th graders for fun on my spare time. My other classes the kids usually seek me out for any programming questions but this one class of rambunctious boys would always say they're fine when I offered to help and then when they thought I wasn't looking would ask the male teacher or would pretend to listen to my explanation to not hurt my feelings. Finally my co worker told the guys "you know guys she went to school to program she does this for a living full time when she's not here. **room goes silent** In fact she's way better at programming then me". The whole room the boys mouths were open and one kid actually said noooo. We blew those kids minds. Most quiet day of class we've ever had after that.

Something like that... Or maybe not... Maybe screw you and your project...

I don't know if it is a dream or miracle,
I did plug a usb cable in a single try.

I met this girl on the way back from lunch, I stopped, requested her digits, when I asked "what's your address" and she replied "123.2.2.8". I fell in love instantly. I knew she was the one.

When the people ask about the dificulty to programming.

Me: well depend to the language that you use to build the app.

People: well in spanish?

Me: what(?), programming language, like c, java and others

People: ah, the pc say me that needs java upgrade.

Me: (smile and forget it), look is not superman behind you?.
