What does your typical development environment look like?

Can you tell us how did you fix it?

"Wtf it's not working ! we goona die"
"Try alt + ctrl + delete ! try alt + ctrl + delete !"

Programmer boyfriend: you should come back to programming

Me: why?

PBF: then we can work together

Me:

MicroJoke or ShitSoft 😂😂

No matter how frustrated I get, I always try to remember: Machines don't make mistakes

Needed a new website for my business, so learned how to build one

I'm still learning and I'll continue to do so throughout my whole carreer.

How did I learn programming?
When I joined college I was literally the dumbest in the class... I didn't even know what is a char and what is a String.. Our lecturer made fun of and humiliated me in front of the whole class....also my parents barely afforded my college tutotion fed...
So one night I sat with myself and reevaluated myself and decided that no matter how hard it is gonna be, I must become an excellent programmer....spent restless nights and days learning the core of programming in c++ then switched to Java *best day in my life* and also learned Android development.. And later JavaScript "mostly worked with jQuery and AngularJs*
In my final year project I built an Android web browser that even the lecturer that made fun of me was impressed by..and my app was rated the best project of that batch.
Now I'm working as a Java web dev and made a promise to myself that I'd learn something new every day.

- Code reviews are good for you
- learn and understand your tools
- ask and listen
- if someone writes code for you, delete it and build it again yourself

Read the error messages and the documentation and think about what they're telling you.

Never forget how it feels to be new and overwhelmed. For every question that you ask, remember that you should eventually pay that back by answering one for someone newer than you.

I think a lot of times, once developers get enough experience, it's all too easy to judge or make fun of those who are new for something they don't know. Remember that you were there once and lend a non-judgmental helping hand!

Don't spend all your time learning new languages or else the knowledge won't stick. Master one thing first, and then move on.

Learn programming language (first), not framework / library written in it.

First understand, then paste.

You've spent nearly 5 hours trying to figure out why your app won't work. Only to realize you misspelled a string constant.

to great not to share.

I love this community, thanks everyone for all the love :)

It's nice to have a devrant sticker despite having only five +1's ;)

When I am stuck on a problem, I try to get outside and do something physical. Go for a run, jump on the bike. Find it clears my head and helps me to see the code more clearly.

Always happening ....😂

When somebody asks you what IRC is and the only way you can explain it is 'It's like Slack, but before Slack.'

windows sucks

god knows why the code that works on Friday does not work on Monday

The code that is the hardest to debug is the code that you know cannot possibly be wrong.

copied a code for android from stackoverflow and it worked
edited the code no more works
removed the code and pasted the original code from stackoverflow and still doesnt work
clean and build and now the code starts to work

where is missing the apostrophe?

yeah... right...

Starting days of C++ were like..

So many people ranting about devRant needing to be more secret when at work?

I've got a solution coming up somewhere in the next 4 hours.
