Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) headphones in, whatever music that your mood requires at the time (my taste varies from classical to country to blues to jazz, pop, rock, metal and even heavy metal (growls) at times).

libre.fm is a good source for non-redundant music. The community channel is actually very good. (even though some crap do creep in every once in a while)

If you can zone out the noise around you, have a coffee machine within your chair's (assuming it has wheels) roll-range - you're all good.

PS : There's one problem that you can never rule out - interruptions from people around you, for that, you make a list of predefined answers :

Can't believe this...

My girlfriend dumped me after I named a Class after her. she felt I treated her like and Object.

I like the logic 😀

Love this guy :)

TL;DR
I just got a mail from our universities tech support for a ticket I openend a fucking year ago... They didn't respond for a whole year and are now working on it?

One year ago I had problems connecting to eduroam on my Linux machine. No matter what settings I tried I never got it to work.

So I decided to open a ticket at my universities tech support. Fairly fast they answered me and tried to find what the problem was. Somehow only half my username made it to their server which means their is no way I can log in.

The conversation went on for a few mails but we never managed to solve the problem...

Now after one year they send me a mail stating that I can call them if I still have this problem.

Wtf? Who answeres to a ticket from one year ago? Why is the ticket still open? Did they work on it or just randomly decide to reply to old mails? Why didn't they write anything in the meantime?

I wrote an answer, in my exam, about the precedence of operators.

Took a random example: "3+4*6", and explained that "*" has higher precedence, so "4*6" would be executed first and so on.

Long story short, this was the last line in my answer:

"The answer is 27, not 42."

coincidence?

Dear gradle, no offense but I believe Rome took less time to build!

Love finding weird comments like this in code

Try to understand Nerds.....

Me: Dad, can I borrow your car?
Dad: What's the magic word?
Me: sudo??

Me in school: Math? When do I need know those details? I can look them up and just code it.

Me in high school: Computer science is way too math-y. I want to code!

Me coding php: Just make it work.

Me coding typescript: Just make it work.

Me coding scala: Just make it ... what ... how do I make it work!?!

Me asking stackoverflow: How do I do X in scala some functional programming stuff in mind in order to keep immutability.

Somebody way smarter than I: "In scalaz, a function A => A is called an endomorphism and is a Monoid whose associative binary operation is function composition and whose identity is the identity function"

Me now: Fuck my old arrogant self.

Just applied to a new job with this as my cover letter.
Wish me luck!

Less is more.

Replaced semi colons (;) with a greek question mark (;) in my colleague's c# code.. He's now scratching his head... :D

In the new job I have, we have to use power point for documentation. WTF

If you refactor code and make it worse, did you refucktor it?

I would like to add a new word to the devrant glossary, next to !rant

Recursive rant - rant about another rant

Any one interested in building a devrant glossary with me? Comment the words you like to add 😅
