well it took a while till I finally figured out what was wrong with the USB stick

this still haunts my nightmares...

this is not good :/

The struggle is real

Going through a startup code

// TODO: implement!

// HACK: works for now, find a better way

// HACK: hardcoded for now

// FIXME: this doesn't work, crash here

// TODO: this probably should be a separate class

FUCK Android, whoever invented this piece of shit should be really proud of themselves... And yes, this rant comes from an iOS developer who's working on a project in react-native... Why the fuck everything should always work on iOS but the same thing is fragile as shit on Android? Why the fuck there's a thousand of different versions of every Android package and every single one breaks another? Why the fuck Android is so fragmented... If this piece of shit is the definition of "openness" then I'd really prefer the "closeness" of iOS... Totally reminds me of how much I hated IE6 back in the web development days

#WireManagement

working with UX/UI designers who don't understand the concept of style guides or reusable UI components is torturous, why don't they understand things work a bit different in real life than in Photoshop, Illustrator or Sketch

when you're sure something you've just changed should have fixed the issue, you run the code and the issue is still there, after half an hour debugging you realize you didn't "save" the file

I had been working on a side project iOS app for years using Objective-C, then Swift came out and I started rewriting the whole thing in Swift and continued working on it for months... Few days ago while I was just playing with react-native I accidentally finished the whole thing in a few hours... Feel kinda stupid for wasting all those years

So, my Facebook log-in flow used to work perfectly on both local env and AWS few months ago, but now it doesn't work on AWS anymore and I'm getting some gibberish in 'tail -f node.stderr.log' and its 6am and I haven't slept for 20 hours... What possibly can be more beautiful than this? #developersLife

Once upon a time I spent a week writing down a "Coding Conventions" document, setting up linters for JavaScript & CSS based on those rules and put the call to the linter in our gulp build task, only to figure out the next day it was commented out by some guy because "the build task was throwing errors" due to his shitty coding style...
