Ran into a devRant user at a random bar in NYC last night. Super cool meeting you in the wild!

They must have been very large if you could run in them

@AlgoRythm ha typo fixed

How did you know he/she was a devrant user?

@Codex404 he said he was a software engineer, so I mention I built a community of software engineers called devRant. He was like "wait, what? Like you made devRant?" I said "Yeah, me and my buddy. Have you heard of devRant?" He goes "yeah, I just read, don't post, but man, this is crazy meeting one of the creator of devRant like this." I show him a photo of our new super secret duck prototype then he offers to buy me a drink and I accept.

Definitely a lot more of us out there than you think. The job I'm at now, one of the devs that interviewed me later admitted that he was a devRant user. Had that happen at a different interview as well. It's a small world!

@trogus super secret duck prototype?

@tnuhb
My suggestion: tilt your head sideways and make the devRant logo with your face :/

@tnuhb exactly!

It's always a pleasure to meet people who use your platform, knowing they are real and you're doing work that makes real people happy 😊

I have also run into other devRant users already :P

Yoooo let’s get a NYC devRant meetup going! I want to drink beer with y’all

*cries in Oregonian*

@AlgoRythm ah, the ole' devRun-a-roo

@fullsack there was one a year or two ago where I met @trogus and @dfox, among others. I think we are due for another one!

@NotABugAFeature definitely should soon, that was fun!

@jOkEr-jAsE he went outside the other end as well

@Codex404 ha it's the journey, not the destination

Not likely for poor old me. Not many real developers down under :( only university graduates who think they are senior developers 18 months down the track
