a gentleman doesn't hack and tell

I bypassed SSL certificate verification because that goddam certificate had some flags which my JVM did not understand and threw errors. Still in prod after 10+ years 🤐

Wake me up when there's something called "Android Studio Lite"

Me things

There was a time when I used to read books. Now, I read source codes. 👨‍💻👨‍💻

When you're lazy to implement a little feature you thought about but the feature gets implemented anyway because of some bug in your code..

True story btw

//TODO: temporary until re-written in new webapp

A commit from almost exactly 2 years ago 😬

Friend: "Does JSON internally use XML" 🤔?

Me: 😑

Stackoverflow is fucking blocked from my company's internet. Fuck.

*Runs program*

*Nothing happens, no error messages*

Oh boy, this is gonna be fun. A bug with no symptoms.

Great day start 😁

My to-do list is a stack when it should be a queue

that moment when you get a different error message just before you give up

The more time I spend here, the more I feel like xkcd#386

I'm never making fun of people who go to Stack Overflow for answers ever again.

I mean, have you guys seen this? A leap-second causing 100% CPU use in MySQL, and a dude figures it out like it was nothing, and provides a quick solution!

Ha.. one thing at a time...

Google:- Google home is using machine learning to remove all type of back noise like traffic, air, and others so the call experience goes smoother.

Microsoft:- In Skype we are using machine learning to catch all type of back noise and mix it with your voice. Skype will try every possible way to make your call experience as bad as possible. Every type of noise Trafic, Air, hardware, your breath if there is nothing! the software will cut your voice and send only a few parts.

Serverless is like our Hoverboard. It's not "no server" and its not "a board that hovers".

Whoever comes up with these names deserves a medal for trolling the tech world.

Fucking precious fragile snowflake dick heads.
Some bot beats a contact form captcha and an email with "offensive" content gets into a mailbox, and they're immediately shouting to HR that we're not protecting them from it.

Bitch, we'll NEVER be able to shield your super special self from all the big nasty bad men on the net - GET THICKER SKIN YOU THUNDERCUNT

One more fucking whine like that, and I'm gonna get far more offensive than your fucking inbox

"It's in progress. I am working on it."

Legacy code 😂

Well this is getting out of hands

--- Linux wants some hugs, and everyone gives a hug about it! ---

After the CoC controversy revolving around the Linux Kernel project, a change introduced by the CoC is being put into practice:
Jarkko Sakkinen, from Intel, started replacing words comments containing "fuck" with their "hug" variant. This means comments such as
/* master list of VME vectors -- don't fuck with this */
might look a bit different in the future:
/* master list of VME vectors -- don't hug with this */

People that oppose this change criticize that the comments will make much less sense to people that aren't fluent in English yet. They also do not like the redundant censoring - the actual meaning is still implied, just no longer included as clear text. It might also cause misunderstandings to people working with the code.

Those supporting this change, aside from jokingly mentioning that this change will save one character per f-word comment, note that this can give the Linux Kernel project a more positive feeling with anyone who works with the code, with "fuck" mostly associated with bad feelings, while "hug" is indeed mostly going to call positive feelings in our subconscious minds.

Who doesn't like a good hug? :)

Several comment sections, IRC chats, and other places for people to express their opinions. Too many to list them all.

Reproducing a bug is easy breezy

A project at work which is based on blindly copying other projects, empty catch clauses, a static class for global variables, and incompetence.

The code I write, and see it after 2 years

Never underestimate engineers XD

That feeling when you boot up your shiny new laptop for the first time and there's no fucking Cortana, online accounts or mandatory updates right out of the box.

Thank you Dell ❤️

At the end it's all about being good at excel

WHY IS THERE "UE" AFTER "Q" IN THE WORD "UNIQUE" IF THE LETTER "Q" IS ALREADY PRONOUNCED AS "QUE" ??
