True dat

True story.

My project manager sent this to me today.

Am I the only person who thinks Linux is best for only servers and similar usages? It being a primary OS is more of a pain than it's worth.

When the team isn't holding anymore

I'm gonna start off my DevRanting career by posting the most relatable comic I've seen...

a developer tried to pull weeds out of his garden, but alas he did not have root access 😂

By day, I'm a developer.

At night, I'm a father of two awesome kids and a husband to a fantastic wife.

Stop fucking asking me to work after hours! Just because you sacrifice your life to the office doesn't mean we all do.

Hello! My first post!

I found an interesting job post on SO, I decide to apply. It comes with a programming test. A simple unit test that must pass (see current-1 post). I get it passing, go to send off my resume and code and the fucking email they supplied isn't valid or active. Fuck you. Eat dicks. Useless fucking HR.

Fucking someone has to fix the recruiting process.

Fucking who gives a shit about your experience, and what you did so long.

Here take this fucking shitty problem that I googled, so that I can judge you by this one fucking problem.

Oh, youve worked on variety of technologies? Fuck you.

Fuck these interviews. Fml.

When one of your staff members asks "what's a file path?" It's times like these that I am ever so grateful that @dfox hooked me up with a squishy ball.

Today a Coworker got a little piece of paper acknowledging that he was a Git master, two hours later he fucked up all the branches.

Just taking the temperature - how many people would be interested in a devRant podcast? We'd probably start with it being every other week.

It would feature things like inside devRant updates, guest interviews, rant readings, and anything else fun we could think of.

Any thoughts?

Can we all grow up and acknowledge that every programming language has its benefits and drawbacks? You don't sound edgy and sophisticated by only advocating for your language of choice, you twat.

stack overflow is imminent

I remember the days when devrant was young and innocent. Before it was touch by the cynicism, flame baiting, and S.O. love nuts. Back when we poked fun at php as a language but not those who use it. Before +1 was improved to ++. Stickers were only 10, and the only way to get a ball was having 100 on one rant even though it felt like there might only be 150 users. Before When we rejoiced in each others successes and mourned in each other so dev related pains. Back in the good old days of.... A few months ago.

That moment when you've been trying to fix a bug for hours then suddenly realize you've fixed it hours ago but just didn't clear the cache

The sell: “become a designer, change the world”

The reality: “become a designer, create Jira tickets for devs to fix stuff you’ve noticed”

I see people posting setups so I will share mine. three 27" Asus monitors. left for viewing site, mid for code, right for db :)

Startups!

that fucked up moment when you create and Android Application in Android Studio for a startup and the CEO of that company asks will it work for iOS also ?... :-/

Programmers

This was not a client but my CEO himself. The website of the company was supposed to be made responsive. So, during the design phase I was explaining how how events should not be used to display ideal information as hover don't exist in touch devices. To this, he says, "Why don't you create something so that when the user has his hand over the phone(like an inch above, but not touched), it treats it like a hover".
The worst part is I still don't know if he was kidding or not!

I named my hard drive "dat ass," so once a month my computer asks if I want to "back dat ass up".

How long will that last 😅

Just had a customer complain that the website didn't work in Microsoft Edge. After a WordPress update and slight CSS correction everything was fine. Then backend got a hold of us kindly asking "What the effervescent F*** is going on with that website"

Apparently it loads half a gig of data from our servers with each visit, we made the website and host it but we did not cause this. Further inspection shows that it's all images.

Me and the youngest (and possibly brightest) guy in the bunch view the PHP to try and control the amount of posts loading when visiting the start page as a means of controlling this issue.

We soon reached a conclusion we didn't expect, everything was in one post..........

One day I will pay for Sublime Text…

That moment when you still wanna play pokemon Go on BluStacks...

Single page website, required to do it for Drupal fml.
