I suppose I swear enough on chat that my "duck" now autocorrects to "fuck".

I suppose. The bad sleep schedule demotivates me from working.

Is "Designed / Developed by" in the footer of a website still a thing for Freelancer / Agency exposure?

2:40am. I'm developing in production.

Why? I don't know

Been working on a personal project for about two years now.

It has finally become a venture that we will be launching pretty soon!!

After a long and relatively serious meeting with the boss. I say thank you, he says thank you, his iPad replies, You're welcome.

My web hosting company, DigitalOcean, sent me a sticker via mail out of the blue.

No explanation, no letter, just the sticker. I just found this to be super awesome.

One year after planning, ideation, development. We were finally ready to launch our client’s product. Everyone was super excited to finally be done with the project. I was responsible to launch it, on a Monday, overnight.

Launch successful. Everyone is happy.

But then it happened... we got the call.. the application is not working. Our team started working to figure out what may have gone wrong, error logs weren’t useful, Application monitors were calm.

Finally, after a tiresome 24 hours, I logged into the hosting account of our client, and there it was, in big bold letters, “Ram: 512MB”.

Apparently, our client thought it would be best to get a cheaper dedicated server instead of the one we fucking recommended.

We all have that hate-hate relationship with Dreamweaver. But I gotta say, their premade templates are rather informative.

Redid my website. Comments, suggestions, criticism is welcomed.

Google just announced the .dev TLD which is now available for registration.

I guess it's time to change all my personal project host names to something different 🤷‍♂️

Question for those who have programming for several years :

Does it sometimes feel like the logic in your mind is reflected by the career path you have chosen?

Meaning, for me, when it comes to decision making, or when trying to understand an idea, I usually black out when a variable in my mind does not make sence.

Sometimes it feels like programming logic has taken over how I think.

well.. okay...

How I imagine it vs How my users use it.

Hired and Paid as a web developer.

But sitting here adding products to a woocommerce site.

My friend asked me what to get for her programmer boyfriend for his birthday.

Easy, Rubber duck.

Read up on how CSS Grid works. Now I feel like I've been living under a bridge these many months/years.

It's awesome how you learn so much during your tasks/projects.

I read the term CSS Grid a couple of days ago, and while starting a project for my client, I decided why not take a look into what a CSS Grid really is, and oh damn, I believe Grid is really going to make this project extra awesome.

I've been working with Magento too long that everything else seems like a piece of cake.

FUCK YOU MAGENTO! FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU

People who complain about wordpress have probably never tried working with Magento.

I've been going through their documentation for about 3 hours now, trying to figure out how this entire system works. And I'm no where close to understanding it...

You know you're deep into programming when your messages end in semicolon.

Coding for the Lazy 😬

Came into work with absolutely no sleep. And now after a couple of hours everything around the office looks weird like I've never noticed stuff before.

Or maybe I'm seeing things...

I fucking need sleep.

Oh the sun's out? Time for bed I guess...

This happened quite sometime ago.

I received a client, reputable university in my country. After all the paper work was done, I was emailed access to one of their AWS server, FTP where the username and password were both admin. I didn't say much to them at that moment.. Maybe they had some precautions?

Over night I received another email, around 3am,

"Hi Uzair, we've monitored a breach while leaving FTP access open."

Well, that was sorta expected.
I received SFTP access to the server the following day,

username: admin,
password: @dmin

Here's a children's coding book 👀

Almost everyone here has shared a story about their boss whether bad or good at some point in their time on devRant. Here's mine.

I started out in my current company around mid third year in college. I have been doing freelance for about six years which is why I think my boss hired me.

I couldn't be more thankful for these last 10 months in this company, every experience has been epic. Since my boss knows my future plans and how I hope to build my own company some day, my boss has been mentoring me ever since I've knew him.

Last week he even offered to take me along with him and certain other members of our team to the US to meet with a client of ours. (I have nothing to do with the client, he just offered the trip for the heck of it.)

I can't wait to see where my time with this company will lead me.

My awesome colleague/friend/person who recommended me to the company, is leaving the company.

This person was amazing. While she was my senior, we were the same age group so we got along really well.

It's been a year that I've been with this company. She actually told me a while back that she planned to leave and to start her own thing. I respect that and I am so happy for all that she's been able to accomplish.

I can't wait to work again with this friend in the future.

Two years ago I started a small online business. It was not a long term investment and it literally ended up being a one man business. The idea was to provide a service to a small group of people who will benefit from my idea and to offer it to them at a very cheap price. (It being the cheapest helped its popularity a lot).

However, never once did it actually make any profit. (and i never wanted it to make a profit) I wanted it to be self sustaining business and it was.

This was a project for my University by the way, I started off in my first year because of my extensive knowledge in the particular matter, and I only sold to people on campus.

Now that its been 4 years, my batch is graduating, and so there aren't many people to spread the word about this project. It's finally the time to actually say goodbye to this project.

I leased a dedicated server two years ago, and I am finally saying goodbye to that too (can't afford to keep it live anymore). And seriously, it feels sad to shut this machine down haha, I've had so much fun playing around with the configurations (even though it was a production server).

It's clear that this downsizing will continue and I will be closing the service in the near future.

There are two ways to understand your code,

- change something and see what broke

- print_r
