That moment when you are on terminal, you highlight text and press Ctrl+C, only to realize you have terminated a running job that was 90% complete.

protip: learn metric abbreviations and save even 90%!!!11!

Ah this project is 90% complete, time to start neglecting it and find something else to do.

He gave me task, and I estimated it will take 2 (120 minutes) hours...
He came after 20 minutes to check the progress... Then he came after 40 minutes... Then he call me after 70 minutes... Then he came again after 90 minutes... Then I delivered the task in the time with my resignation letter draft.

Million dollar app/service idea.

Automatically reply to all LinkedIn inmail’s with “I don’t have any experience with that on my profile”.

Even without any NLP I estimate over a 90% success rate.

Startups are like JS frameworks.

The more you encounter, the more you realize how useless 90% of them are.

Imagine being a gitlab employee scrolling through devRant being the reason for 90% of todays rants

Just cloned a 90 GB Virtual Box, 15 minutes later when the clone was 90% done, I got an error message saying that I don't have enough disk space (I had only 80 GB). WHY DO I HAVE TO WAIT 15 MINUTES TO GET THAT INFORMATION????

How do I usually make a typo?
10%: I punch a wrong key on the keyboard.
90%: I do everything right and get auto "corrected".

Disclaimer: I can't 'officially' verify this.

I've been using Firefox as main browser with about 5 addons for added privacy for ages now. When googles (fucking) reCaptcha takes more than a few minutes on Firefox (about 90 percent of the time, I'm estimating), I switch to Chromium (with the same amount of (similar) privacy addons) so I can go on with my stuff.

Now, I recently thought 'why not try to do user agent spoofing on Firefox to see if reCaptcha would start working 'normally'?

So, I installed a user agent spoofing addon on Firefox/Chromium, results:

Without spoofing:

Firefox reCaptcha success rate: 10 percent approx. (mostly 2+ minutes)
Chromium: 90 percent. (mostly instant)

With spoofing:
Firefox: 90 percent approx.
Chromium: 10-20 percent approx.

Again, I can't prove any of this yet but mother of fucking god, whenever using Chromium or spoofing Chromium on Firefox the succession rate skyrockets.

Google, what the fuck are you up to?

Developers :
Work as efficient as possible!

Also developers :

I have a lot of respect for anyone who can design a good looking website.

I can code like crazy. And I was a freelance classically trained illustrator for 10 years. But ask me to design a website and it's all spinning giffs, midi tracks, and Comic Sans. Some kind of early 90's geocities nightmare.

The good thing about being a mobile developer is that your phone's battery never goes below 90%

Visiting my grandparents and saw this beauty. My family's first pc in the late 90's.

That movie about Facebook being made is so inaccurate. No one actually codes for hours straight. A good 90-95% of their time is combing through stackOverFlow posts from 2001

I just implemented parallelism in one of my major data collection tools for work, and cut the tool's run duration by 90%. That seems like as good a time as any to go to sleep.

Email. Fuck everything about it.

It's an obnoxious queue of messages I somehow must handle. And everyone in society expects you to have email. You can cancel your phone number, maybe even live without a house... but every hobo still must check their email.

It is an endless shitstream of things I don't want. Like a garden with some nice tomato plants, but then a really smelly weed starts invading and no matter what you do it keeps coming back.

I don't want to login to unsubscribe. I don't care about your "notifications center", or "managing the offers you receive from us".

And then your boss asks you to design an email campaign... I don't want to receive that shit, why would our customers? And even if I agreed with using email as a communication channel... YOU THOUGHT CSS IN INTERNET EXPLORER WAS A BITCH?

No really. Fuck email. Fuck everything about it.

90% of c/c++ "lovers" whose favourite language is c/c++ apparently turns out it is the only language they have ever known.

Like wtf? You can't apply for a job as a commercial pilot, then turn up and announce you've never flown a plane before, so why is that accepted as being somewhat expected in development?

Fucking hell....

Working on a funny/new api/service (will be a public one) and I'm only now realizing how important good security is but especially:

The amount of time that goes into securing an api/application is too goddamn high, I'm spending about 90 percent of my time on writing security checks 😅

Very much fun but the damn.

is it just me or is finishing the rest of 10% of the project much more fucking harder than finishing 90%?

Being a kid in the 80's...

When people in a IRC channel says;
mailing lists it something that people in the 90's used

In the late 90's before I knew anything about web development at all I used to think HTML was an abbreviation for hotmail.

LAST MINUTE:

Its what gives me my purpose in life.

Why does everything "Oracle" look and feel like it comes from the 90's?!

school takes the creativity out of programming.

you want to try something new?
sorry, can't have that. functionality = priority.

school takes the choice out of programming.

- you're gonna use x language
- with x api
- in x environment
- and make it in x way
- because if you don't, your gonna fail x assignments
- because programming is about getting the job done, with no creativity

yeah fuck you too

school takes the cleverness out of programming

you get a turn left function. it turns a 'turtle' left any amount of degrees that you pass it, you have to make a turn right function to turn right 90 degrees. well, if you thought turning left -90 degrees was a good idea to make a turn right function, then fuck you. you have to turn left three timeswith the default 90 degrees instead because it's more practical/logical.

fuck that.

anyone else hate the movements to get programming into schools?

90's problem

When Java is your first language and you are learning python as your second: 90% of errors due to your fingers automatically adding ; at the end of every line of code. :/

Late 90's, I was about 12-13, Realized the source I was viewing was pretty much the whole website. Created a tribute page for rock music. It looked like a regular ol' shitty 90's website. Then one day my father showed me it's mentioned in quite a complementing way in a big national newspaper under the web section, didn't realize till much later that he was probably the one who informed them about its existence, but it was too late, as I've already tasted the fame&glory. Thanks dad! :)

A friend just said that "Coding is 90% knowing the theory, and 10% knowing/googling the syntax for a particular language."

Company: your hired, lead our X dev team.
Me: yay.

Me: is this a charity case?
Company: yes, but we both win.
Me: how?
Company: you can keep your salary.
Me: deal.

So my job doesnt use any version control. They just edit the files directly from the network drive. Wtf? Is this the 90's?

How to vertically center in css..

set "text-align" to center and then rotate your screen by 90 degree. :D

So I pretty much deleted 90% of the project I'm working on and pulled two all nighters to reimplement the features differently because it didn't feel "good enough"... fuck this neverending "I can do better" feeling 😭😭

I love when the internet cuts off in the middle of a 50GB upload that was 90% done.. 😥

So I didn't realise till I was helping a colleague debug but his build take 3 minutes for every tiny change.

On my machine it takes 4s

This guy has been sitting around waiting for builds 90% of the time FOR MONTHS

Worst part of being a dev?

The last 10% of a project.

When I started learning to code I couldn't wait to become a 'senior dev' thinking I would spend all my time writing awesome code.

Now that I am a 'senior dev' and have the experience I now spend 90% of my time documenting & planning and even less time coding :'(

My university has a course "Higher Programming Languages for Engineers".

The language you actually learn there?

Fortran 90.

Technically they are right and Fortran continues to have quite an importance in the field of numeric simulations, but still. The name is pretty misleading.

Been playing a lot of old NES games lately.
Made me think how did they develop and program such amazing games with primitive 80'-90's technologies, assembly/c and no internet.

Now with all the tech we have most games are crap and based on webshit or mobile.

90% of rants about CSS are just people who don't even know CSS2 properly and never heard of CSS3.

That's like crying about not having a nice car without even owning a drivers license. Bullshit.

I think there is a bug, my + votes seem to be capped at 90 :/

Google Insights updates their image score algorithm. Now all our website scores dropped from ~90 to 20 - 50. Guess who needs to resize all the freaking images. Fuck me.

Companies: “See! Diversity solved!”

I don't know which should make me worry:
1. the fact a gradle build for a new project is taking 90% of CPU
2. The fact CPU Freq isn't going higher than 2.18 when it can go up to 3.1?
3. The fact gradle is always taking 5 minutes to build when it used to take 1 minute for a medium project?

Bought a game for 90% off during a Steam sale. I guess you get what you pay for.

The other day we had a little celebration because a website went live.

It’s weird

Somehow it’s easy to spent €100 on celebration food and drinks but it’s hard to sign a €90 paper and allow me to upgrade my computer just a tiny bit.

I am not from 90's but still remember it

April fools @stackoverflow

90%+ of production issues are caused by developers believing production machines are magic and have unlimited resources so can handle any shit code they write

Why do I ++ like 90% of the rants?
Devrant is HOWSOMEEEEEEE, thank you guys.

BTW, most distraction? Devrant

I had my first interview

My answer was 90% "I'll learn it"

I wasn't even know what should I learn and now I know, so I get something through interview I guess

Client: “I’ve attached a screenshot of the issue.”

The “screenshot” is a printout of the website, with no annotations detailing what the issue is, scanned back in at a 90° rotation and saved as a PDF 😄

It's like thinking you have to shit and then just farting for 90 minutes.

Definitely a blackboard or whiteboard. Definitely helps in the modularity of my code. I love it when I spend 90% of my time drawing out my idea on a blackboard, implementing it and having it be super modular.

We're digital plumbers.

90% of this job is figuring out what thing to connect to what thing and then figuring out how to connect them.

Writing the code that goes in-between both ends of the pipe is easy if not trivial 90% of the time.

Meaningful change in this industry is centered around endpoints: contracts, deployments, etc. Nobody needs yet another way to organize and import their leftpad().

Lately ive noticed that 90% of rants is "heres this thing that would come up in the first 3 lines of any documentation but instead of that, im gonna rant about it"

The other 10% is meta rants like this and the last 5% is from people who are bad at maths.

Namecheap have 90% off on SSL certificates from Comodo this Black Friday.

Finally getting a raise. 90% salary increase, feels good.
Feels like I can finally start saving for a home and stuff. Too scared of STDs to blow it in hookers so nothing left but investment and savings.
Also messed up and posted as a question.

Team estimated a huge feature with 60 days. Made a prototype in a day, implemented it in the project the next day. Code looks a lot cleaner than a previous similar solution.

Now it’s 90% done. Should have worked with 2 other people. Oh well, sorry not sorry for that teamwork.

wllcnbeofozbv3-#:(#:wiwjzvfoblaa!!! If someone says "I don't have Discord, I don't play games" once more - I will run them over with a road roller. 90% of servers I am a member of are either for some open source software, open source hardware or some other non-gaming related community so stop with that "But I'm not a gamer" bullshit!

Back in the late 90's when I got started in my career - had a boss that didn't known the difference between Java and JavaScript. I made the mistake of trying to explain the difference. If you can keep the boss in the dark and get away with it - do it. Ignorance is bliss.

i went to my college bakery and i bought a sandwich (costs 140) and ultra energy drink (costs 90) in my currency

i extend my hand with money and the woman takes a calculator and types with one finger 1 4 0 + 9 0 = and says "230"

Today we had our first standup. We sat for all 90+ mins of it. The irony. Maybe the standing part isn’t that important? Or maybe it went for 90 mins because we weren’t standing? Sigh. Save me.

...programming class at school. First of all, we have to fucking write that shit on paper. >.<

Then, my neighbor just copied my code, but Karma reks him, because the teacher asked him to explain why he used what he wrote. He couldn't explain anything. Just so you folks know why I'm ranting about my neighbor:

You were supposed to output this using a for loop (lets take 10 as an example):
"10 * 2 = 20
20 * 3 = 60
...
720 / 8 = 90
90 / 9 = 10"

He couldn't do it, even though we learned how to do it before and he said he understood it.

Just ranted for 90 minutes on the Long Island Railroad and it seemed like 5 minutes! Thanks guys for all the cool rants.

I do not understand why everyone is so fanatic about stickers. Went to a conference one day and about 90% of all laptops had stickers and ich only wanted to free every of this small beautiful creatures from this ugly pieces of shit.

How Youtube deters unofficial downloaders.... It's really fast for 90% of the download. Then the final 10% is slow as hell...

Maybe will never actually finish... perhaps they're using the halving algo where in theory it never reaches the end

I write python that's faster than most people's c++. My c++ smokes everyone. Current project runtime has gone from 90 minutes to 90 seconds. Fuck yeah. I'm really not paid enough...

Had a dream last night...

My grandmother gave me a flip phone as a present. My first thought was "really?"

But after flipping it open, I found that it had some gaming buttons (A, B, Start, etc). Also, it had a place to insert Gameboy games.

It was the most 90's/early 2000's phone ever.

Why are all (or at least 90%) the programming courses so booooring?

Has anyone checked out stack overflow today? 😂 You should

10 % of the coding is writing it, the others 90 % is finding out because it's not working...

So recruiter scheduled an interview and he gave me the hands on problem they'll ask me to code.

He says I'll get 60-90 minutes... so I tried coding it and I've come up with some questions I will be asking the interviewer before I start:

1. How professional do you want it?
2. Can I use my own libraries so I don't have to write the boilerplate stuff? (That should cut-off about 30 mins and make the logic much clearer)
3. Can I write it on a PC?
4. Can I not write the Imports
5. Can we just skip this? As we all know, you can see 90% of the elements needed for your program in some form in my GitHub repos.

Wellp, I just had a cowoker send me a screenshot. By that I mean a .pdf of the application we both work on that looks like she somehow manifested the program into the physical world and ran it through an early 90's copier, scanned the resulting piece of paper, and sent me that.

Doesnt really need to be implemented though.

It's kinda cool how a $5 VPS (Linode Nanode) is able to run a vanilla Minecraft Spigot server for like 6-7 people and still can serve some basic stuff just fine. I get monitoring warnings about >90% CPU usage sometimes, but everything is more or less lagless.

I've spent 90%+ of my time lately making some changes, which is about 20x harder than it needed to be because this app (written in the last 1-3 years) has all of the styling set explicitly. How does anyone justify that?

upgrading to win 10. first 90% was quick. the latest 8 % took 2 hours... only 2% left (and 5 more computers to do this on). this sucks!

Another weekend, another relic. this one happens to be my wife's old standalone flatbed scanner, circa the late 90's

Why the fuck would I do that Google? It's just 25% full not 90%.

Look in a fu**ing log files...There you will find answers for almost 90% of "oh, i have some error" problems.

Rant!

Why enforce a 90 character limit in code file (C++)

It does not make readability any better..
you either break up functions that barely exceed the limits

or

start making nonsense variable names just because they are short.

Now my MacBook didn't boot up until I plugged in the charger. Even tho it was 90 percent charged. Now why did it do that 😢

Why would I strive to be productive if 90% of my work consists of me waiting for approvals, access, credentials, attending meetings about meetings?

Followup to my wk200 rant.

I'm like 90% sure I wasn't muted when I flushed last meeting

PM: Heyy team x, could we have a suuper quick 90 sec tops call?

B*tch, if the call is actually 1.5m there is no way we need that call. We can actually respond to your question in text quicker.

But I know you. You can't fool me that it would actually be 90 seconds.

It's also fucking Friday afternoon.

I hate Eclipse.

I have the Student membership for a year but I can't use IntelliJ for my project because I HAVE to use Eclipse.

I'm around 80% - 90% done with my project, so I guess I won't have to deal with it much longer.

Had to do a change tonight - not once but twice my server secure login account was locked. And server security don't answer their pages. I couldn't even reverse my changes if my changes break something else.

My account has not been locked in over a year but happens twice in a 90 minute window. What are the chances?

So the files I deleted by mistake and took me 3 days to write ( was writing vuejs for the first time ), took me just 4-5 hours to re-write 90% of it, again. Damn

So I’m like 90% certain 10% of my app should be event sourced, and the other 90% CRUD based (but event driven).

However after trying to tackle this from a variety of angles I’m 100% ready to jump off a building

So I’m taking a break and eating a fucking donut

Fun game: Type "[any word] js" into google. 90% of the time, its a project that exists.

Copy-pasting 90% of our entities including logic and merging some - creating thousands of duplicated lines - and then creating views for those abnomalies just to speed up the ORM fetching which could have been done with a single join...

Took me some time to delete all of that fking shitty untested code full of bugs...

love it when client supports comes to me and tells me the entire conversation they had with a client when i just need wathever request they had. i could have been done with this feature in the time you took giving me 90% useless information.

Q: How do you stay warm in an empty room?\

A: Go stand in the corner—it’s always 90 degrees.

So there's been a lot of rain lately, and it looks like the river next to our office might flood, which means if it does then we'll have to evacuate all our workstations.
Unfortunately, 90% of our office is currently out of the state on vacation or at a conference, which leaves only 2 of us to get everyone's stuff out..

90% of my time at work is spent debugging and fixing a horrible mess of years-old legacy spaghetti. The only "real" coding I do is my personal hobby projects at home.

I would love to get into more frameworks, but half of them make 90% of your work harder, are not documented well enough or are just confusing what they actually offer. 😥

They say 90% of code will be generated by AI.
I say 90% of code is already copy paste from old projects or the internet. 😂

When I signed up for my job as Senior DevOps, I didn't realize it was going to be 90% VPN and Subnet management. Time to brush off my Cisco books !

I find corners of walls hot...

They have 90 degrees xD

Recent rant about hipster styled mobile-first websites which actually look awful on a desktop PC reminded me of this. How is this a good UX if I have to zoom out your page every single time? C'mon, I am not blind ffs!

You want some relevant info? How about a video that takes 90% of your screen instead?

I currently work in a php shop where 90% of the devs don't know composer. #drupalFTW

Webhost dun goofed,

Warning: ini_set() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/user/public_html/config.php on line 90

The best way to learn something imo is starting a project
I used to start small projects for that but now im doing my biggest project with laravel now its 90% done

So my internship started. Spending <= 90% of the money I earn on gas. Gonna be tough 5 months...

Actually having exercises to try so that the 90% of CS students that learn by doing can learn. Rather than writing down theory

Is it just me or is Java really uninspiring as a language? And are there any Java build tools that don't sound like 90-year-old women? Maven, Gradle...

Had 98 in last June and 90 last month. Century this time!

Still using a database from 90' - Enea Polyhedra:
- no decent visual sql client
- utterly limited scripting language
- weird communications protocol
- no redundancy beyond master-replica
- no encryption of communication protocols
- etc.

You don’t appreciate software if you buy Samsung cause they be ripping you off by selling you 90% hardware for the price of an iPhone!

I'm always sitting at a corner because it's 90 degrees there. I don't understand why offices have to be so cold.

When im out of grass. I take my keyboard. Rotate 90° and shake it.

After a week of getting new projects thrown at me, I finally get a block of time to start one of the larger, more complicated one.

30 minutes into planning it out, prepping the workspace and diverting 90% focus to said project, someone busts in with a more complicated top priority project that needs done by end of day.

90% of work as a developer is not development,
it's guesswork and communication, trying to make sense of requirements and third-party software documentation or filling in the blanks if both are missing.

Gentle note to aspiring devs, that SO is not hacked. It just their new 90's theme design (More to come).

Search for history icon beside search bar to toggle to normal(Modern) view. Stop Panicking!

I was just copied on an email that had far to many managers included that basically says 90% of the problems come from an original group that just didn't follow directions.

Now we wait to see if upper management cans the whole team.

To all those who think global warming is fake, try running a notebook in this blistering heat of delhi, india. Was running my macbook and it shut down, froze, reach its inner temps to 90 celsius and had it do all sorts of frightening stuff that would cause you to shit your pants if it happened to your precious.
