When you fucked up, but everything is working.

Credits to my son.

Found this quote from a really awesome person on the internet.
Can't agree more on the last sentence.

Today I asked for a 5% rise. I got 10%.

Look what my dad just found under his combat boots... *cries in pain*

#1

Fuck it. I obtained a Laravel codebase with 200 routes all handled by "mainController".

😓🔨

There will be rants.

!dev

const children = {
length: 1,
data: [{
name: "noah",
gender: "male"}]
};

children.length++;
children.data.push({
name: "mina",
gender: "female"
});

const happy = true;

Look what I found.

As my teacher once said: if you want to avoid to get a burnout, just have kids. Parents have no time for having burnouts.

I generated my first SSH keys today. Am proud.

Client: Extend string size for that URL field. I have to input a really large URL in there.

Me: Please show me the URL first.

Client: Here it is //randomurl.com/random-route/15363783?i=jfjfjfjjfjfjhf&shit=jfjfjkfkfkgjfjjhh74747jdjh&you=kfjfjbhgg779hdhhd&not=jfjhdh63737#fuckingKiddingMe

Me: You can leave the whole part after the question mark. Insert it like //randomurl.com/random-route/15363783

Client: Ok, great. Thanks.

#####

Me later checking the data inserted:

//randomurl.com/random-route

I hate humans.

My client tells me there's a new bug with to-www-redirects. He yells they don't work properly anymore and tries to blame me. But fact is I know, they are well configured in the Nginx conf and therefore work like a charm.

I told him I fixed it and charged an hour. Motherfucker.

😓🔨

Welcome to my live.

I hate humans.

Imagine a database table where dates were saved as strings from raw user input. Then do migration to other database with table where dates are datetime.

Yep. That's me. 😶

I hate humans. 😧🔫

Especially those who try to be original like:
11|Sept.|2016 or 13;Juni;17

There are rules in this world, damn. 😥

My new treasure. I'm excited to dive into.

IPv4 combat!!!

My wife got 11 yesterday. I think I will become dad again.

I wrote a random programming joke generator with the JokeAPI in PHP and it insulted me:

My boss trying to fool me on my vacation days. Trying to force me to use them for days I were sick. Bitch. NO!

Short version:

Dear devRantdairy,
today I was stupid.

The End.

Full version:

I am working on some messaging system, trying to use less as possible overhead sending data. Therefore there of course are asynchronous calls and some templating. But that's just the setting of the rant: I designed an architecture to save conversations in a database. Working with transactions in pdo I wrote a query wich in my eyes should have worked well. But the result just didn't appear in the table. So I started debugging data. Recreated the table. Rewrote the query. Went to bed. Woke up. Further tryed to make this work. And in the end I realized I just forgot to commit the transaction.

How dumb can you be? There's way too much time gone for that mistake. Is there a hole? I want do dig myself.

Damn, last night I went to bed with an unsolved bug. That was the worst night in a long time. Nightmares of not being able to solve it, then surprisingly solving it with an unbelievable solution... Waking up and solving it in reality instantly. Geez...

This is how you combat the EU law.
You are welcome 😉

How could I miss CSS "position: sticky"? 😱

The glass of my phone broke in one edge yesterday.

Wanna see a screenshot?

😤😤😤

4-Stars-Hotel? My ass!!! This fucking shit of WiFi connection only serves like 10 requests then breaks. What the fuck is this shit?

Why is a damn WiFi connection in Germany like searching for water in the desert?

I fucking hate this hotel. You cunts ruin my fucking week.

This rant is False.

My way to combat the role of tech support within my friendship group.

Every time you feel anger, instead of explosion you write a new rant and make people smile.

=> devRant is behaviouristic therapy.

I use the ++ button to set a bookmark on rants with many comments. So when I come back I can start reading from the red ++.

I appreciate how this 📌 became the official devRant subscription thing.

Understood Javascript callbacks today.

... uhh that feels good.

Of course they don't use git. And also they don't use SSH all changes get committed by FTP.

#9.1

When I started he gave me root access and I had to clone the whole fucking thing, wich was about 2gb, via FTP.

#9.2

He stumbled when I told him, that I will test all changes first on my local machine. They were used to work in production.

😓🔨

I hate styling HTML-forms.

After struggling for weeks with SSL settings I finally asked @linuxxx for help.

Guess what, he made it work in about 5 minutes!

N e v e r, fucking e v e r chmod/ chown permissions recursive on the linux /etc folder❗

I did yesterday (, because I am fucking dumb and know little about linux systems) and got the result today. My whole mailserver wasn't working.
After fucking tons of googling and searching and log-digging I found that postfix and opendkim require specific permissions on their respective folders and files.

After changing a fucking amount of permissions on those fucking files the fucking mailserver worked and I can send and receive mails, now. 😤😤😤

What a torture. Lesson learned. Never will repeat this mistake.

Created a branch for the first time. Now I can switch and stuff. 😍

Awesome!

A friend offered me a new job in his company. Therefore I am going to quit my job. I like my current job, but the conditions are shit. Still I like my colleges and my clients. So I feel really bad for quiting.

The Job he offered me is pretty good, well paid and has many benefits for me. I like him and his company and are really excited to work with them. They are expecting big things of me and I'm scared to disappoint them.

Also I haven't told my boss about my plan to quit yet and because we become kind of friends in the time I work for her, it's an difficult talk for me.

😕

'help us to improve our service by making this idiotic survey which will be analyzed by our brainless monkeys'

What about fuck a toaster?

Had a nightmare today. My server got hacked by @floydian. Wtf???

"Don't reinvent the wheel..." - I read it often, still I hate to use foreign code. It's not only that I do it for learning purposes. I just don't trust them. I want to keep the control, I want to understand my application and I want to be to blame when things fuck up.
I would probably through my laptop if my website gets hacked because of some fucking plugin or code I found somewhere on the internet.

So yes, I will invent the wheel new. At least I will spent some time to understand how this particular wheel is made, how it rolls and how I can improve it for my specific situation.

Sometimes my tires have some uncommon profile, but they fit to the stuff they are made for.

Just SO comments 😅

How can those WordPress-Theme-Creator-Bitches write bullshit like "no coding skills required". What the fuck do you say?

Why don't you jump into the Pacific Ocean (no swimming skills required), idiot.

Dear Dennis from Bremen, I appreciate how you dislike my websites color theme. And totally can understand that you can't employ me because of that. I thank you for taking the time and writing me this, even though I didn't ask you.

Go fuck yourself!

When AI takes over the world...

... developers would be doctors right?

Why the fuck does !important actually mean important in CSS?

There was a dark shadow inside the watertank of the coffee machine. I put new water in and voilà a really fat spider came out.

The coffee the last days was really good....

Your rant was featured on devRants Facebook page.

Congrats! 😄

I've got an Arduino now and I was building lights the last weeks to understand the coding. But when it comes to use full stuff I could do my mind is empty. Do you have any suggestions for me?

I know there have to be FUCKs in a good rant. So I will miss use the tags...

Last night I nearly finished my portfolio site. I was working on the perfect framework and workflow like forever. But in the end I accomplished a pretty pleasing solutions. For the back-end I choose Laravel with it's built in rest-api, the front-end is managed by Vue. I'm also proud of my assets-management which is handled by Gulp + Webpack (Laravel Mix). But here I decided to run Gulp on images, fonts and CSS and let Webpack bundle the JavaScript.

And what really crawls my balls is that I can write Sass and Jade, even use partials and organized the shit out of this website, and let Gulp just vomit some minified HTML and CSS on the other end.

Man that feels so good.

Thank you guys. Especially thank you @linuxxx. Because of your help, patience and advice I accomplished to setup and manage my new VPS on my own. I even moved to linux on my local machine.

It has been a long path. But I feel confident now. Thank you for growing that feeling in me.

Was getting absolutely crazy about not getting access to phpmyadmin on my server. Tryed 10things. Broke server twice. Asked @linuxxx and he just told me the solution like the cool guy in school jumping on his drink to make the package pop.

Productivity struggles... Am I the only one who is super productive between 7am - 12:30pm. And after those hours I'm near useless 😞. Brain is to tired to solve problems effectively.

How do you guys combat the afternoon slump/drain?

As some of you know I start at my new job on friday. I don't have a development or computer related job, so guess what my first task is?

I was at my boss/friends house last friday night and he was like 'I know you're good with computers. So can you install the printer in my bureau?'

Now I can absolutely relate to all the printer rants.

Hate it when I show someone a photo on my phone and they just swipe next.

...No. Sry, JavaScript. I actually love you.

Regular expressions is like a condom, it's safe, combat tested and works most of the time.
But if you use it too much it gets dirty quickly.

ARE YOU RETARDED, YOU SHITHEADED DICKS?

At least they have humour.

Today I broke my new server for the first time.

Got into a big argument with my lead developer today.

The thing is....he says that the Red Ranger, the original one (Jason) is the most powerful ranger. And we know this is bullshit because even Zordon said that the White Ranger is the most powerful one of them all. But his argument was that Jason did best the Green Ranger in combat. Man that don't mean jack shit.

The White Ranger is the best and I don't care what you say.

The things I have to endure I swear.

Debugging break. ;)

My first times today:
First time a droplet on Digital Ocean.
First time Nginx.
First time trying to separate mail and website servers.
First time using UFW firewall.
First time Ubuntu webserver.
First try all alone configuration of my webserver.
First time installing all the stuff I need on my own, like MySQL, PHP and so on.
First time only SSH access from the beginning.
First time deployment from bitbucket.

Do you have any advise what I should think about. Or what software I will need. Or what I should think about.

While I'm still struggling with Webpack and Babel. There's one light in the end of this abyss. Dear @AlexDeLarge is reaching out and helps me with all his experience. devRant, what a wonderful place.

Vodafone is a piece of shit.

#4

Only 7 of the ~200 Routes are named. The former dev just created URLs within the views with the url() method.

#4.1

There are just GET & POST request. Even though stuff is getting edited or deleted.

😓🔨

Yesterday I experienced a developer related situation in a completely different scenario. Let me explain:

A friend asked me if he can borrow my angle-grinder. As I was curious, I asked what he needs it for. As he is not that experienced in woodworking he wanted to cut small piece of wood with it. Of course I told him, that this tool is a complete overkill and recommend him to use a small saw.

Now what makes this programmingrelated:

I believe that often unexperienced programmers tend to use to heavy tools for small tasks. His lack of experience let him choose the most powerful tool, but made him blind for analysis of the actual problem.

I woke up early and thaught I could finish some database work today.
Beeing tipsy I deleted two production tables and shit my pants.

Luckily I do backups since the last retarded db-deletion.

#7

The former dev tried to implement redirects. He created dozens of routes wich lead to a 'redirectXY' method within the 'mainController'. There he returned a redirect Instance.

😓🔨

Sometimes I cant trust my brain.

Started learning SASS today....

Applicant: I demand a trial by combat.

#8

Instead of writing migrations the former dev implemented a migrate route. Wich triggered a method on the "mainController" to run several SQL statement and migrate.

😓🔨

#3

There are like 50 views. But that's not the bad part about it. Each view is backed up twice or more within the same vie directory by adding a date to the views name.

Think you like bugs.

Do what you enjoy doing and you won't work a single day in your life.

I laughed my ass off.

To be honest I have no problem with procrastination. I love programming and there are few things I would rather do.

Algo helps me to see the the whole thing. 😂

TL;DR, I do node.js now.

__________________

There's much I was working on the past weeks. First of all some of you may know I don't work in IT and therefore always am learning how to make things easier in my workspace with tech. And my boss once told me how annoyed he is converting stuff to PDF for easier sending via mail.

Then I started to build PDF converter with
PHP and the Laravel framework. My first steps into it succeeded and I could even deploy my Pdf-wizard website, but everything feels like a hustle and making this application bigger don't really seems like a enjoyable task for me.

I tried the same stuff with Node.js then. It was damn good. It was simple, because there are plenty of packages wich do this tasks on NPM. Afterwards I spent some time on doing research and ended up learning Express Framework.

This brought new inspiration to me and I wanted to share this with you guys.

I experienced merge conflicts for the first time.

I. Hate. Them.

The German translation is really bad. :/

How I should approach a new project:

- think about data design
- draw some tables
- configure relations
- create data structures
....

How reality proves I'm a donkey:

- builds random table
- works on models, with random querys
- realizes things get to complicated and relations are broken or tables need duplicate logic
- starts thinking about 'good' design
- draw some tables
- configure relations
- create data structures
....

The year is 2020, we have:
- Self-driving cars
- graphene batteries
- graphene nanotubes to combat cardiovascular disease
- the ability to fly around the world for very little money (not taking the pandeming into account)

yet we still don't have a simple fucking way to use EXT4 drives in w10 without relying on 3rd party tools...

Anybody have the bad habits of biting nails down and sometimes tearing the skin off finger-tips just because licking the blood is somehow calming?

If so, how do you combat it?

Really thought Facebook changed the messenger icon. This smells of spam and paid reviews. I thought Google was working on trying to combat obvious name conflicts and spam.

#2

There's only one model. The user model, wich is preinstalled. But the database has many tables. All queries are generated manually. Within the "mainController".

😓🔨

I was working for a client on a simple landing page. After struggling for days with the text-flow of one paragraph and trying one CSS property after another I finally realized it.
He sent me the texts in PDF format and I just copied them. What I did not know is that all the spaces in the text were non breaking spaces wich of course did not wrap like I expected.

Heureka. You bloody bitch. Never imagined having such a fucking issue in web development...

Well... I accidently deleted a whole tables contents and the day just has started. Fuck this day already.

When it comes to the indentation or look I am fully consistent.
But when it comes to naming I am inconsistent like a crack whore telling she's clean.
Camelcase, underscores inconsistent variable and function names. I use all of them within a single file. On some days I even switch languages.
I truly am miserable in code consistency. Is there any good advice to keep the code consistent?

Help me solving this logical puzzle. I'm dumb as fuck.

You need to find the logical link to get the missing number.

Yesterday I had to deploy a website, nothing big. But afterwards I wanted to delete the site on my showcase subdomain and ran

rm -rf *

in the console. I almost died.

Very small project like the Youtube. 30$ should suffice.

Fuck it. Today I broke my production server installing the brotli encryption on nginx. -_-

I was really surprised how much hardcore work there is on freelancer.com. At first I asked myself what hardcore coding would look like. Then I realized... 😥 Only females wanted.

Woodworking is like 3D-Printing, just cooler. Printed a bottle opener today.

I can't await Laravel 6.

In case you are interested:

My new job is so damn awesome! I had pain in my jaw for weeks, I got a teething rail for the nights, but the pain was still there. Since I am on my new job it's totally gone. I am so much more relaxed and more productive now.

Life is good!

Carpe, fucking, noctem. (developer edition)

After doing some Vue, I probably will go with laravel for the backend.

I'm excited about that, but it feels just right.

Found another Laravel gem in this horror codebase.

I am getting depressed every time I open freelancer.

Why do people mix JS vanilla with framework syntax? That's horrible.

Why do people use jQuery anyways? There's no need at all anymore. It is just dumb JS for dumb devs.

Did that trigger you? - well....

Still I'm getting hardly fucked by Webpack. If there's any good god in this universe, please kill me. 😰

The story of how I got my new job (I will start in december) even though it is not a dev related one:

I was about to reduce my work hours, because my wife was getting a really good job. We couldn't both work full-time, because our son is in kindergarten. Then she broke her ankle and the job was gone. Right at this point I was offered a job at a friends company. I knew him by being an intern in his company.

Things always go well in the end.

#10

After I did some work on this nightmare codebase, the client kept switching goals. He Changed the task a few times, so I always told him that he will have to pay for all changes.
After a time he requested another change, so I stated that he has to pay the first invoice I sent him first. He started bitching around, that I didn't complete the work yet and so on. I saw where this was going. He didn't wanted to pay me, so I cancelled the work for this bitch.

😤

Read my revenge in #11

Always have a backup or make sure the cloud you work in is making one!

Carpe fucking diem!

Like every second project on freelancer.com...

My dad was an IT and as a kid when our NES broke and I couldn't play Mario he showed me F-22 lightning (an aerial combat game) and I thought the missiles were fireworks. I always called it the airplanes and fireworks game. Good memories.

Hey guys. I have nothing to rant about the last few weeks.

I want to buy a book about advanced php. Cool ninja stuff I could do on backend... Do you have any suggestions for me?

I accidently lost a whole tables data today. Lucky me I also created a XML-file on the server which was for printing.
I parsed the files back into a simplexmlobject and recovered most of the lost data. 💪

I’m currently learning development thru a remote bootcamp, I spend 80% of free time trying to build stuff and doing challenges. None of my friends understand or care, how do you combat loneliness/make friends when you’re a beginner? I’ve been to a few meetups but everyone’s way ahead of me. Bootcamp classmates are cool but none are in my city.

It arrived!

I know politics is not allowed here, but I have to share this gem with you.

One day before the election for the European parliament the website of the German city Bochum showed a wrong bar diagram with false results of the election for a few seconds.

Everyone was loling. But I was like WTF? They were testing in production. And also they included data were the party AFD had about 50% of the votes. Are they retarded or so?

I've got myself a new notebook. Lenovo ideapad 330.

Had troubles with the installation, but I will be using elementary os in a few minutes! I'm excited!

😁😁😁😁

I've worked on dozens of projects now and I have tried using several CSS frameworks. Every time I experienced using a framework much more of a hustle than using custom CSS for the design. If your design gets a little bit more complex or unusual you will spent hours on fixes.

For me the times of frameworks in CSS have passed.

Tough I kinda like Vuetify, but then I haven't used it on big projects yet.

Fuck you Twitter for making your widgets createTweet-method only work with the tweet-id as string. Fuck you especially for don't returning nor throwing any error for giving an integer value to it.

This took some time...

My parents proudly accept me not working in computer related jobs. But they also would when I did. I think.... or I hope...

I just hope you guys and girls enjoy the time your parents are alive and have nothing to regret in the future. Life is to short for hatred.

Started to redesign my wifes website into grid-layout with SASS. It is fun and I save a lot of markup HTML.
I try to keep the green theme, but I realy suck at design... I just have no eye for colors. I rather would keep everything white and grey...

Moved to Australia, because it's cooler over there. Pissing on outback stones right now. Who's your daddy?

A year ago I ranted, that I understood JavaScript callbacks.

That was a lie. I knew nothing.

But I think I scratched the surface by getting into functional programming this time.

I want the pipeline-operator in JavaScript. I want it now!

... But then I mostly work with Vue.js (because it's awesome) in the last time and I somehow miss vanilla JavaScript. Life is cruel.

A few days ago I read an article about an IT company in germany winning in court. They sueed the government for charging them taxes for offering breakfast to their employees. They won because the jury said coffee and dry buns is not a breakfast.

So, my question is is there some guy from called company here on devrant? 🙂

When I was really new to JavaScript, I wanted to create an image gallery with images which I stored in a MySQL database. Well, I did not really had a clue how to load all the image sources into my JavaScript to load the images. I also didn't know much about fetching an endpoint of my website to get the data asynchronously.

I also wasn't a good database architect at that time and my database had an image table wich was for the gallery. Within this table there were multiple columns for one image slider (there should be multiple sliders on one page in the gallery (I know... 🤢)).

So I ended up writing an PHP loop wich printed Javascript loops for each row in my images table. Within my JavaScript loop I created the sliders and set the images.

In my defense I can say: It worked. 😅

It hurts to remember this. And I hope you won't judge me.

Haskell, Scala or Erlang?

How hard was the transfer from Apache to Nginx server for you? I'm not quite sure if I should put Nginx on my to-learn-list.

I'm curious, why did they rename Laravel Elixir to Laravel Mix?

There was this motherfucker searching a dev to build a vue component on freelancer.

I applied. 🙄

Then he started to ask me out about Upwork. How he wants to use my account through TeamViewer. And how he will pay me for this monthly.

Why am I magnetic to idiots and scammers? Can some one please Avada Kedavra all idiots? I will pay you monthly. I swear.

Of course the previous dumbass dev could not use the findOrFail() method, because he didn't used any models.
But he just implemented his custom get404() method.

😓🔨

I hate the new android update. Cause my phone is even more Google, than it was before. Since I like some services they offer I wouldn't complain. But they are going way to far... For instance I now have a Google keyboard and it is actually pretty good in suggesting words, but sometimes it just autocorrects my text and swaps words I wrote.
Like:

'Hey, you don't know as good what you wanted to write as I do. Let me correct that for you!'

Just let me type my own thoughts, you smart bitch of a software. And also fuck you.

Deployment can be a reason for heartache...

I deployed a website yesterday and it was a damn hustle. After changing into goodmode and typing random stuff into the console, I broke another of my websites on the same server.

Now I had two sites to deploy / repair. Damn.

After a few hours I managed to make both work. But damn, that adrenaline rush that gave me. Fuck!

Fucking updates broke my Laravel project. 😫😤

Freelancing is modern slavery...

Al this greedy fuckers searching for the cheapest tool for their super urgent project.
Even if you write you consider the payment on the expenditure you fucking snail will still debate on it cause you consider your time more valuable. You consider my life isn't worth your money. You want a service but don't want to pay for it.

This get all for fucking free mentality is what ruins this planet.

I would be really annoyed being tagged under every fifth rant....

Did you ever had issues with non working usb devices on Linux? I had today and after some search I probably found the solution. But I at first couldn't believe it. Then all the guys in the comments went Batman.

Yesterday I killed a production server with a handful of sites running on it. 😬

Created an observer for one of my Laravel models. It was generating new translated slugs when another post gets translated by an API. While implementing also an updated method besides the created observation I obviously updated the models slug.
Pretty confident this small update will work I just pushed to production. Tested it live.

BOOM

Hard reset on the server redoing the changes. Searching where I fucked up this time...

Finding me observing the updating while updating the updating of the updating by the updating. 🤦

Made a SQL query wich perfectly worked. Than added one collumn to be selected and everything is shit.

And the worst is I still don't know why! Ò_Ó

Todays rant is about me trying to add some long text into my database. I tried it all day long, but the text was inserted partially all the time. I changed the collumns data type to BLOB, this felt false, but it seemed to work. The bad feeling triggered me to search further, so I rewrote my code and found the source of this behavior. I used utf8-decode-function on my text and that triggered some problems when inserting the text. I don't completely understand it, but I solved the mystery, that fucked up the day. I will sleep good now.

A client asked for a tool for his website. So I built it for him and he was satisfied with the thing, cause it did what it should. Nevertheless I was not, because it kind of had a messy backend. I made it working and charged my time. Now I am wondering if I should rebuild the thing to satisfy my code quality for free, or just keep that thing as ugly as it is....

What your opinion on this?

Why the fuck is everyone posting coding and css videos about hearts?

Ohh.. it's the day again...

1. Remove 'this.' from your js-syntax.
2. Be happy.

I learned the first things in php by the Sololearn app. If that count's as an teacher, it was quite a good one, cause it triggered my interest and guided me into this forest where only google and probably stackoverflow will lead out.

So most devs here are probably using Duckduckgo over Google. But what about Ecosia? Are there any fellow users here?

I always had little time to code. But since I have my server I just have admin related stuff to do. It's been a few days now since I have seen my editor for the last time.

Hate that.

Do not recommend. Pretty basic shit...

I kinda like gulp.

In love with Laravel events, listeners and mailables. What a beautiful way of doing this. Can't say how much I love this framework. <3

Can't wait to implement redis and queues. Am excited to try this for the first time. Share exp. if you have, pls.

Heureka! I made it work! I made it work!

After two weeks of trying shit and fixing without any clue what the fucking problem is, I finaly made it work.

Somehow Atom had a problem finding the correct paths on my Windows 10 machine. After I retried it on the Windows Console it perfectly worked.

Some solutions are simple. Some problems are stupid!

All thanks goes to @AlexDeLarge for writting awesome comments and understanding Webpack so damn well.

Laravels error reporting is sometimes fucking useless. Yesterday it wrote into the logs "class foo doesn't exist". I triple checked the including of this class. Checked the namespaces. Checked the classnames. Everything was ok.
Today I removed the content of this particular class, which returned an array. And the error was gone...

After further search I realized I was missing commas within the array deceleration...

Why the fuck you don't just tell me this????!?

devrant definitely needs a no-img-filter! :/

How do you generate/ write your invoices? Please, recommend me your favorite tool/ procedure.

"Have you seen this new movie? It's really good, it's British English though, but it's subbed."

I laughed my ass off. 😂

Wombat has his deployment day today! *_*

Wombat is freaking excited!!!

So I'am reading this 'JavaScript the good parts'-book. I start liking it more and more now.

The last days I'm going totally insane for parallax designs. Have you tried them by yourself? Have some links?

Eloquent is so fucking slow, my (dead) grandma queries faster. It takes the fucking double of time on a simple query with only one join for maybe ~200 rows... From now on I go fucking back to raw SQL in my Laravel projects. 😤

You get what you pay for

Started writing this program on my calculator today....

I got -red-bombed.

Thanks, I guess.

I use clearfixes.

Quoting Douglas.

If I close my eyes will all the problems pleas go away?

😭

These days where you haven't slept, woke up to smartphone having seizures and work began by spawning into a combat zone.

No I wasn't ready to fight, me wants sleep.

😫

When I had to choose a service, I chose bitbucket. Now the other two are getting flamed. Seems like I chose right. But in the end who knows what is good and what is bad. Peaches are delicious. Winter is coming. And I definitely don't care.

As some of you know I work as an occupational therapist and one of my clients wants to ungoogle his phone by installing lineage os on it.

He was asking me today if there are some good tutorials for doing that. He has an Xiaomi A1 phone and he would like to have a german tutorial.

If you know any pls share link.
