Coolest thing I ever worked in was a charity web app/ mobile app for Ronald McDonald clinic on wheels. Used the mean stack with meteor.js and react.js

my coolest project is one i am currently working on. its my 12 month old daughter. She challenges me everyday and gives me enough kicking to find the best solutions for all my other projects. every developer should have this muse.2

I worked on an amazing web app that tracked satellites and their failure rates. it was beautiful and worked fantastically. Me team worked like dogs to get it done three months. Our manager insisted it has to work perfectly for the demo and we delivered... We all got raises and everyone was happy, right? WRONG!
Demo day comes and management decides that they don't want to build the app because the customer pulled out. Sooo my manager then asked me why I wasted so much time building it when static images would have been fine. I lost my cool and yelled at my manager "YOU'RE THE ONE THAT TOLD ME TO GET A FULLY FUNCTIONAL SYSTEM WORKING!" Then I stormed out of the meeting.
It is still the coolest thing I ever built. Too bad it will never see the light of day.3 -

Back in the early 2000's when phones were barely getting smart and phone companies were charging for text messages like they were solid gold, I made a j2me app that could send SMS-es over GPRS trough a website that was offering free SMS-es. That way you could send 10 SMS-es for the price of one.
The app got some traction in my country. At the time ICQ website also had an option for sending free SMS-es. So I made an international version witch got featured on some blogs. But then within a week I got a cease and desist email from AOL lawyers. So that was the end of that.1 -

I hate how entitled young tech workers are, but I also hate that my office only has three different types of milk.8

Computers and their peripherals are constantly advancing, but keyboards... keyboards never change, We pretty much just stole the idea from typewriters and moved on.8

At the end of a function for getting the machine's MAC address:

weather is beautiful, sun is shining, I am feeling mischevious. Shall I block stackoverflow on our proxy on Monday?2

You're a good coder when you know what to ask on stack overflow.
At least I assume so. I'll let you know if I ever get there.1 -
I just wasted 20 minutes debugging a component that, when included in the parent template, caused an untraceable infinite loop.
Out of desperation, I finally just renamed component to "pants". It works.
...huh?
Renamed back to its original name. THAT works too.
...Huh??7 -
In case anyone was wondering if Apple ever actually tests updates during review, they do. Sometimes, apparently, they also use devRant with the provided test account. Hopefully their rant/comment quality improves, but they are trying!!10
