Don't call it "LiveUpdate" if you still need me to restart.

I'm one more "npm install" away from filling up my disk.

Really? You can't think of one con?

Ok cool.

When I finally get my hands on the person who wrote that terrible piece of code.

Every time that I think I know the difference between substr and substring in JavaScript.

Then they should have used radio inputs instead of checkboxes...

We're switching to Azure

Should I risk it?

The entire building is downstairs having a party while I'm up at my desk coding.

The stereotype is real people.

The irony when the image compression site you're using says your image is too large to upload 🤔

Please, just let me die already...

I'll take your word for it...

You don't know what true pain is until you use a keyboard with the "Insert" key next to the left arrow key.

Just put a semi colon after a sentence in an email... Think it's time for bed.

When you work at a start-up your "role" is actually about 12 roles.

Seemed right to put this here as this box has birthed many rants.

(Thanks @dfox and @trogus)

I measure how busy I am by the number of times I have to take my headphones off.

Stellar documenting...

I always start new projects with:

git commit -m "It begins..."

What about you guys, do you have a similar ritual?

Client: "Just found 2 bugs, could you take a look please?"

Me: "Sure, what were the bugs? Could you send on the steps to reproduce?"

Client: "Found another bug."

Me: "pls."

git config --global alias.unfuck 'reset HEAD --'

Thank me later...

Taking a while but I'm slowly making my way to the optimal work setup.

I love the way an IDE can pick up the exact location of a syntax error and know what needs to be fixed but it makes you do it instead.

I was working on a website for a client and had asked for the login details for the DNS provider so I could update the records to point to the new host.

2 weeks went by with no reply then I got a text saying "Could you take a look at the site? Seems to be down". I explained that I was waiting for him to give me the login details and asked what site he was talking about.

He thought the staging site was the actual website, he was advertising the URL as his new website.

.htpasswd credentials and all.

I had no words.

Client questions that make me shudder:

1. Can you make it pop?
2. I'll know it when I see it.
3. Can you do it like <insert website here>?

Taking a break from coding to write more code. 😑
