Second intro to programming class we remade tetris, it was incredible

I probably spent more time making graphics than coding, but I also coded a mini graphics framework for the game

We additionally made incrediblly addictive modifications to the game, it's still super fun to play

We also barely had the knowledge we needed to code it, but I'm still super proud of it

Cross platform mobile with Xamarin, an internship asked me to learn Xamarin for them, I found that the docs Xamarin had were surprisingly helpful compared to other places

After continuing to pursue mobile with Xamarin I now feel I know multiple native apis very well (iOS and Android) and have found my favorite language (C#) so I've also learned a ton about how code and compilers work and all sorts of other things

Xamarin has been an incredible learning tool

This should make everyone happy... Right?

My ultimate setup :)

Random 'J's bothered me for the longest time in emails on my phone and elsewhere.. It was too consistent to be a typo, anyone else seen this?

Well it's a smiley face in wingdings -_-

When you use someone else's poorly written code in a memory inefficient language

I should do school work.. But instead.. I'm attempting to install Arch on my other laptop :D first issue.. Can't even boot 💿

Gonna be fun

Has anyone ever bought a domain and left your info public?

It amazes me that these spammers can't even make their emails read well or professional ah oll

Like "Google top page)"
Did you really not see that parentheses there?

You all catch code devils..

Does this make me a code angel?
Or full access to all files?

We want machine language

Just had to type a 12x12 matrix by hand.. Bleh

I didn't choose the engineering lyfe, the engineering lyfe chose me

devRant mini rant... Only myself to blame

I wear flannels all the time :( but don't have 1000

Thanks devRant for awesome content, I will get the flannels soon!

Obilogatory setup post

Ever heard of the band 1023 megabytes?

No? Not surprising, they never made it to a gig

Has anyone ever seen their C# getters disappear at runtime? Ya me either. Xamarin.iOS did I find a weird bug?

This is crazy

How devRant sees devRant

*clicks download on VS for Mac*
Would you like to take a survey about your experience?

Sure Microsoft, I just downloaded the product, and have not even installed it, would you like me to judge it based on Windows 10?

Has anyone else ever used Matlab and wished other languages had a similar setup? The coding window, repl, variables window and the debugger, all of which are constantly connected?

After a night of hard work, got arch dual booted on my Mac :) now time to learn it

Coding along, frustrated already, need to restart computer to test something.

Of course im running on Windows and then I realize I have no restart opinion, the only one that exists is "update and restart"

*sigh*

*writes programs with variables for arguments*

Runs.. Crashes

*removes variables places exact same code in parameter list*

Runs.. Succeeds.

I don't understand you my GPU

I was showing my girlfriend how merge sort works... Halfway through my visual explanation, she took the pen from me and finished the algorithm.

I think I have chosen wisely :')

The worst thing ever is freaking NS datatypes, who thought that was a good idea? My code looked fine and worked fine till you made it spaghetti, thanks apple

I hate the feeling of realizing the problem you face has not been posted on stackover, or any forum for that matter.

However, when you manage to solve it, you feel like a badass

Thanks Microsoft/Nvidia for not accounting for nested parenthesis in your batch file

Compile and debug program, no local variables show.

Clean project, debug program, build errors.

Thanks Mr. Compiler

Always ask "can I Google this?" before interrupting a coworker, teaches you independence, often gets you an answer quicker, and makes you look smarter

You learn to use build scripts and VC the hard way after one "gcc -c main.cpp -o main.cpp"
