Just left a job where I felt like one of the best devs on the team. At my new job I feel I have so much to learn from the devs I work with. I'm so happy. :)9

I can't figure out the MVP of this project.. since everything that came up on my mind became an MVP..

I got a message from a friend "I've just upgraded to Windows 10 and it locks on the login screen, what should I do?" Being a good friend, I promptly gave him the solution to his problem, so I replied "Get a Mac".

Was about to follow a guy doing really interesting work on Twitter, then noticed he was using a light background terminal theme.

Am I the only one that doesnt find a single one of the LinkedIn/Microsoft jokes funny? "Do I have to upgrade to LinkedIn 10 now?" These jokes are already tired as hell!5

You know you messed Git hard when your commit graph started to look like November Rain on Guitar Hero.4

I knew I was about to get laid off so I stopped caring and started answering questions on stack overflow all day every day instead of working.
10k rep later I got a new job via stack overflow careers that pays twice as much.
Moral of the story? Be efficient... even when you are not.5 -
In 2008 I took my first web development job for an agency that's no longer around. There was a Vice President there by appointment from our coke headed owner who really liked to micromanage and invade privacy with key loggers and screencap spyware to "manage" us. I found out because my machine would snag when moving the mouse cursor and sometimes I'd accidentally paste the screenshot into photoshop just before the software cleared the clipboard. Anyway, I wasn't supposed to know I was being monitored so I just unplugged my network cable and killed the service running the jank ass spyware. I'd delete it when no one was looking and wipe out the cache of screencaps it would compile every day. It was basically a troll vs troll stalemate for weeks. Finally they gave in and told everyone what was going on so we collectively decided to seek revenge. We bought a piezo buzzer about the size of a quarter that chirped like crickets at random intervals. We stuck it on the underside of his desk inside of the middle drawer area and let it go. They spent so much time and money trying to get rid of the cricket infestation. We let it go on for weeks. I ended up quitting before the gag was up, but damn was it funny to see him squirm in that office because of those crickets!6

As much as we love to complain about our PMs and coworkers, I feel blessed to be in a field where after working all day, I enjoy what I do so much I come home and work on my own projects. Who's with me?9 -
What is windows actually looking for when it's "looking for a solution", it's like a kid trying their hardest to spell a word. There's a chance it'll work, but realistically there is no hope.1

Finally got my new MacBook Air. I was beyond anxious to put the first stickers on it.

When my dad is answering questions about what job i'm doing, he always says 'He designs websites'. :(6

Programming is like writing a book... except when you miss a single comma on page 126, the whole thing makes no sense.

I once saw this comment inside two embedded empty loop :
// WHY, OH GOD WHY!
Turns out somebody deleted the content but not the loop. The next dev added the comment but kept the loop.
