Every website now except mine.. well, when it goes live 😂. Anyway found on Twitter

F🤬k!! why doesn’t this work on the testing server!l! I swear it worked local.

Meanwhile live:

Project manager: I thought you said you made sure it was live today! I'm going to have to explain that you're the main issue with why it isn't live to management!

Me: have you cleared your cache?.... (long silence)

I swear it's the new "have you tried turning it off and then on again".

Why does Python live on land?
.
.
.
Because it is above C level.

Client: It works, it looks great! Thanks for everything!
Me: What? That isn't the new application, that's your old one. Your new one goes live tonight.

watching CSI:

The cop (watching hacked tv broadcast): "This isn't live, is it?

The hacker girl: "I'll create GUI interface using Visual Basic, see if I can track the IP"

effin' gold, hope that GUI helped her

"I'm just trying to replicate {ticket-1234} so I can write a quick hotfix."

- "Oh, it doesn't work on dev."

- "So... I have to test on stage?"

- "It doesn't work on stage either."

- "Uh, on prod?"

*office laughs*

We're doing it live folks.

ANSI is a dying art; but I want it to live.

So I had to chroot into my system (I fucked up). Plugged in my backup arch live USB and then suddenly... What the actual fuck? I guess somebody borrowed my drive and used it for barbaric purposes

This fucker has some balls (I'm being completely ignorant), the day his website goes live guess who is going to flood it with Dados attacks.

Dev of other system : Oh hey, we're implementing a change to this part of the system, will it affect you at all?
Me: Sure, I'll check it out. When are you planning to go live?
Other Dev : Oh it went live yesterday...

🤬😭

Anyone know what this is?
Is it a bomb? (lol)

It was in front of one of the apartments i live in.

Just doing my own projects all day, and actually be able to live of it

I wrote an app that tells me if a lottery ticket is winning. It takes a picture of the ticket, does OCR, finds the number lines and compares them with a remote json.
I live next door to a lottery shop.

Currently I live in the city Utrecht. Right now a terrorist attack is happening next to my school with explosives and I'm at school right now.

Waiting it out now!

Everyone keeps posting about Linux and living in 2037 but I don't get it. Why is Linux so great? How do you live with the incompatibility of your games??? Just casually rocking windows 10 living in 2017

Am I the only one who sees a post that begins with "Am I the only one..." and automatically downvotes?

You are not a special snowflake, there are millions just like you, live with it.

Made live code changes to production site... during peak visitation hours... things broke... no one noticed... Thug life.

So today I learned i can pay my property taxes online. The way you pay is:

1. Enter address (street #, I live in an apt)
2. It will show all matches **including the owners full name**
3. If you click view, it shows the full account history...

Is it just me, or reading job descriptions is sucking the will to live?

live with it

In the span of a week, I:

* broke up with my girlfriend
* had to make a site go live for a client that wouldn't fucking cooperate and give me what I needed to get the fucking site live
* was given legacy code for a wordpress site that looked like what a fucking brainless monkey would type out by smashing its head repeatedly on the keyboard.

It can only get better from here, right?

Does anyone else fantasize about giving up programming and go live in a jungle or doing other things that require more physical effort?

I've been learning carpentry, farming, DIY power generation etc. The goal is to be self-sufficient and go live in a fucking jungle someday. Or legally buy some cheap land far from the city and automate the shit out of it. No wait, I'll just live there as a normal farmer and write code if I feel nostalgic or something.

I think anyone other than me could have expressed that better.

rant¡

Client: "Can you add some logos to the homepage?"
Me: "Sure, I've just added it, take a look at staging."
Client: "Great, we can move it to live"

** 5 days later after it being moved to live and telling them I'm going on holiday. **

Client: "EMERGENCY change logo now, we need to change x logo. These logos look crappy too. How did this happen?"

Fuck this. I'm not employed by you, you don't have any right to speak to me like that. Especially after working tirelessly for your company.

**sent email back explaining how to upload files**

Told them not to contact me unless it's technically related.

Today I slept for more than 7h. And I'm fucking proud of it.
Hell yeah!

While live streaming Google pixel launch, every time the guy on stage say Ok Google my phone triggered it 😁😁😁

There is only one important rule to live by:

Never lend anyone your 256 GB USB-C/USB-B combo memory stick. There is a 100% scientifically-backed certainty that you will never, in your meager existence, see it again.

When you work in IT but live in the Deep South of the US

That moment when the you actually think that this huge refactoring isn't worth it, but you do it anyway so you can live with yourself...
Code quality is love. Code quality is life.

Fellow developers,
For all people asking u to be partners of their "billionaire" idea, and to be paid from revenue ONLY when the plateform goes live or shit like this, BEWARE.
For all of them i had the same answer: "ok, ill share with you the project, but until it goes live, i am the only one who is giving sacrifice, and since we are partners, i want us both to do same level of sacrifices in order to deserve later the share of revenue... That being said, u have to pay the hours of devlopment, all of them, and when it goes live, from the revenue ill get, ill pay you back what you paid on dev cost"

It is the only way to be really even...
And if he refuse, ask them again "why? I taought u where 100% sure that your idea will work and become a billionaire why u think it is risky tp pay few thousands????"
... Now he is having second thaughts

Client: "We want you to build us a quick prototype / proof of concept. Don't make it too neat, we'll rebuild it before we go live."
Also client: "We already have a working version, why would we rebuild it?"

You Either Die As A Developer, Or You Live Long Enough To See Yourself Become The Tester

P.S. No offence to Testers. It just i hate testers

Cloud storage subscription for 100 years, will you live until it expires!

With the new Dutch mass surveillance law comming soon, I am interested to know what you are doing with it?

Nothing?
VPN?
Something else?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I don't live in the Netherlands?

Pubs are fucking brilliant. Walk in. Take a vacant seat. Order food and drinks for a good price. Live music. See all your local friends. Drink enough to barely make it home. Sorted

I'm thinking about doing a live coding stream on twitch this saturday, late afternoon or evening (CET).
I've never done a live stream before.

Do you have any suggestions or interests?
I'm thinking about something like a small RESTful API with Angular4/TypeScript (frontend, single page application) and CraftCMS/PHP (backend) with somebasic theory about HTTP requests / response, redirecting, data transfer and interfaces et cetera...

The duration will be around 2-4 hours, maybe longer if I have enough Mate & Beer.

But it's all just an idea at the moment. 😉

I will create an empty project for the stream on my Github and push to it during streaming, so you can pull it live or later.

How's the site launch going? Fucking started drinking scotch at 11:15am. That's how it's going.

I made it to 700 ++'s

I can finally have the energy drink AND the coffee on my desk.

Finally I can live up to my name.

Boss came to me earlier

Boss: There's a critical issue with this release version for this project. Make sure it doesn't get deployed to our test/live environments!

Me: ...

Me: ...

Me: Err, that release went live 3 months ago...

My place of work just put on the World Cup live stream. I'm not even a huge fan but it looks nicer than my current code, so I'll live in denial for a bit

You know what's worse than hell?

Your non-technical boss thinking he knows coding.

In the middle of night you are going to fix the problem he created, because he messed it in live server.

My coworker can't be bothered with learning git branching, so he comments out significant functionality during testing and then comments it back in before go-live. What could possibly go wrong?

Got this email yesterday, it was about one of my projects. THIS is what I live for.

Men. Live with it.

(Stupid mistakes that kept me from sleeping.. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Lesson learned: Sleep.)

Was it intentional that the live stream was exactly 40:04 minutes long?

I mean I feel honored

My favourite devTool is VS Code, especially since the last update. But considering that versioning should be more important than a specific IDE, Gitlab is THE tool. I couldn't live without it. <3

The first time i made my own electron app, and saw it working and displaying live data the exact way i wanted it to be doing it.

At the same time, it was the first time i felt like been a real dev in all meanings.

I made a simple HTML site for watching Google I/O live without all the ads that third party websites try to stuff up your face. It also has the official countdown from the event website 👌 (The countdown will disappear as soon as it runs out)

I live in zurich switzerland one of the most expensive places to live. And i work as a jack of all trades graphic ux/ui designer/copy writer/marketeer in IT security.
I earn about $3800 a month, but every salery calculator says I should earn above $7000. With a median salery of $9300. But this seems so much money and I suffer from low self esteem. So what should I do? (Quitting is not an option because I like it there)

Today I learned that there are people that disable javascript...

Quote: "It's both insecure and resource intensive"

Then he went that only if the script is free he would see what it is to run it.

He also said that he would never allow any js file that comes from google even jquery...

I wonder, how does a man like this live today when most of the websites are heavily dependant on javascript?

I wouldn't live in an isolated world just to be 100% secure, I want my good user experience xD

Anti Rant: Is it just me or are Google Play app updates rolling out really fast... Like i have published some updates recently and they have been live in under 10 mins.

Looks like Google got their act together!

If the live server crashed, it wasn't me. I did the changes locally first. I swear.

Turned on a feature in production a full day before it was supposed to go live.

I just opened an Instagram live video for the first time. It was a video from Snoop Dogg and I thought...

“I can almost smell the chronic he is smoking on”

... then I remember I live in Vancouver BC and that smell is the 80 year old man and his wife smoking a joint at the crosswalk.

—> I like the place I live :)

I've spent too much time online... I'm in a zoom meeting, I missed what someone said, reached to my keyboard to rewind then realised it was live... 🙈

coding for your company and you know something doesn't work right.... sweet I'm done. I'll just fix that tomorrow.

coding for yourself and it works right but you still feel nervous about your users using it so it takes you an hour to build up the courage to push the changes live lol

Marking your email as "High Priority" does not make it high priority. Nor will it get it attended to any faster. But keep believing it will, dear colleagues. Live happily in your little fantasy worlds.

I always tried not to judge people based on their location of birth/live but damn, these motherfuckers at work are making it hard.

I'm not sure is it a container technology or a zoo...

Docker is Whale
Docker Compose is Squid
Podman is Seal
Linux is Penguin

Are we live in the Arctic?

Just patch it on live, we'll fix the code later.

After being live multiple years supporting only Safari, Firefox, and Chrome, one customer wanted IE support. After taking a close look at the usage numbers, and discussing with us front-end devs, our product guy shot it down. Pop the champagne!

I am slowly losing my mind and will to live because of this PCI audit, I hate it so much

For a mobile developer, Java is like women : can't live with it, can't live without it 😆😢

I hate it when you live the cliche...

What would you do if you had a passive income high enough that you could live off of it?

Don't you just love it when a customer reports a bug in their live system and it's really urgent to correct it; then you go out of your way to fix it ASAP and deploy it to the staging system for them to verify. Three weeks later the customer has still not tested the bugfix...

I love VB.NET and can't live without it.

Disclaimer: I use other languages as well.

Meeting: Here is the brief. Its specific. Inplement it.

Me: It's done. Gone live.

Client: Can you just change the whole thing to be completely different to my original specific spec? It'll only take a minutes?

Google IO 2023: WE'LL SHOVE AI DOWN YOUR THROATS AND YOU'LL LOVE IT.

Fuckers even have live chat and comments disabled -.-

Never thought tech-events would get this boring, 5y ago it used to pump me up like nothing else could.

Why is source code so crappy? May career is not the longest, buy in my 8 years I talked to so many developers and every one told me how important quality, standards, tests and architecture are - but every codebase I've seen is lacking all of it. Everything is running on constant live support.

I don't get it. It is like I live in a world where everyone does know what has to be done, but no-one does it. I suspect it is because people are lazy, lying and won't say no but that's also not a world I want to live in.

Site scheduled to go live at 9:30. It's 9am and I've just been handed 3 hours worth of things to do on it. #FML

There's the possibility that all of you just live inside my head, but it is also considerable that I exist in one of your mind.

When they announce a new feature in a video that goes live today, but the feature isn't build yet. It isn't build yet because they never told the IT department that it should go live today. So now I'm stuck hotfixing it.

My personal playlist of music, can't live without it.

Any Covid-19 virus stories to share on how it affected your dev work live?

!rant !dev

Some devRanters here live in Ireland? Got to say I just tried Guinness for the first time and I love it!

This was like fixing bugs on a live site...except it could fry my arse as it had to stay on..

the excitement you feel finishing a project way ahead of deadline for them to still not push it live 5 months later bc of copy tweaking

Just wondering why most of you here hate php. I have multiple live projects using the Laravel framework, runs great and I love it!

Priceless advice to all. Never agree to work on a project where graphic designers are overseeing it. You will be installing a scripty handwritten font the week before go live, changing out images but the ecommerce portion has not yet been implemented much less tested. I thought I would be implementing a typical Shopify site but no it is "story telling" they say. Oh yeah go live is 4 days away.

As it's online at the moment.
A live background of myself handing me a glass of wheat beer.
And then actually having it.

My parents think everything i do on the computer is magic. Theyre too scared to toich any of my stuff because I convinced them it records live video and biometrics to my phone.

Sometimes life is good

Always write your code like the person who will maintain it is an axe murderer who knows where you live.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.

If you live in a major city and you stand on the slow fast side of the escalator (could be left or right based on location)...

then you deserve to be punched in the back of the neck.

No exceptions.

when you're supposed to be pushing something live but you got the poops and need to run to the bathroom. then the client calls when you're sitting there on devrant halfway done with your business and you answer pretending you're pushing it live.

>Adds new feature
>New feature works fine on dev
>New feature works fine on staging
>New feature doesn't work on live
>You can't easily figure out what is wrong because you need to wait an hour for it each time :|

Fuck it, i live in lebanon.

Fuck me. 5 installation attempts later, still can't get arch to boot after removing the live usb. Do I have the wrong fucking kernel, cause it can't find it during boot now. Fucking hell, I just want this shit to run.

Ubuntu (probably) fucked up some upgrade and I wasn't able to use lvfs anymore. (damned meltdown/spectre bug) so... I figured it'd be a "good" idea to reinstall dbus. well.. the alternative was reinstalling Ubuntu so I figured I could at least try. obviously it didn't work out.. at all.

sooo here's me thinking I'll just insert my live media and live on with my life. nope. the fucking live media is corrupt. so, here I am now, contemplating why I was such an idiot.

projektaquarius's quotes to live by:
"Let it be known that I raised my concerns, then did it anyway"

Commit and push to live site without testing on Friday and being super confident about it.

And the payment system stop working on the weekend

Don't you just love it when you're in the middle of an agreed content freeze and a marketing drone demands an immediate content deployment to production because they made a blog post and it's "super urgent" that it goes live right now.

Jetbrains (IntelliJ, Rider) - cannot live without it. Everything else seems to be unnecessarily complicated in comparison.

Client calls screaming they want to go live today.

And oh yeah they also want three morebpaymentbgatways integrated before that.

The documentation is scarce and we never used them before.

Got it on the table 4h before day ends.

Awesome!

Surely this will be down voted, but whatever:

1. Don't
2. Wait until you are 13-15 years old to dive into it
3. Live your childhood "normally" (this normality is totally subjective of course)

.NET Core
Because I use it, and it's awesome.

SignalR
Because it makes live websites easy as fuck

Note to self, don't fix a minor bug that will not effect the demo right before the live demo. My program that was working great didn't work anymore during the demo because of my quick bug fix I figured I had a few minutes to add to my code.

Finally got a new laptop at work!
The first thing to do: install linux in it so the beast could roar free.

Download mint iso, dd it into an usb drive, boot it up in uefi mode, .... /dev/sda read error: -110. Fuck, must be smth w/ secure-boot. Disable it, rinse and repeat. Same error. Wtf, could my drive be broken?
dd iso into another usb drive, boot live env -- read error. THE FUCK! It's wildly unlikely my both usb drives died on the same fucking day!

Go to it admin to ask for an usb drive. Iso->usb, boot -- live env is up. My my, look who's unfortunate today :)

cryptsetup, install, reboot et voila, the beast is finally roaring!

!rant, !dev, random thought

We live in the past. Everything we call the present has already happened, we just aren't immediately aware of it.

For example, if the sun suddenly exploded, we would live for ~8 mins thinking nothing had happened. On the human scale, this still holds although the delays are much smaller. (also, the sun isn't where it appears to be :D)

Our senses deceive us 😯

Open to criticism :) just thought it was an interesting thought.

My hands started shaking today when I was about to resize a partition on a live, production hypervisor.

Who came up with the idea that the only way to *inflate* a partition was to fricking delete it and recreate it again?!

I know that as long as I keep its start at the same disk sector and only increase the partition size, not decrease it, its gonna be fine. Still. Deleting stuff on a live system makes me nervous.

DevRant-Stats Site Update:
Future projections & Live General Section

Added some future projections like SocialBlade, where you can see your score in the future, according to the stats in the last 30 days. Therefore it will only be available after storing the stats for 30 days.

Also made the complete "General" section live now, and replaced "Live Score" with "Devrant++ Member since".
So now the values are updating every second! (Using EventStream so not working in Edge Browser lol idc)

Have fun!
Feedback is appreciated!

I almost fired off an update query without a where clause on the live db. I stopped at the last second. I'm now having survivors guilt. Why me? Why was I saved when so many before me didn't make it? 😁

Okay, mr neighbor, i get it, how have a drill and too many walls, youve been doing this crap for the past fucking week, do you have a cheese fetish and want to live in an ementaler????

Why the f*ck is it so hard to setup an online live radio on NodeJS but making a freaking Google hangouts clone is not.

How can you call yourself a code if you live in a city and never experience the outdoors, trees, birds, life. I do it all the time and it gives me so many more ideas and concepts to include in my coding.
#include <outdoors.hpp>

Gotta love it when everything works flawlessly with the test API endpoint and credentials, but when I try to go live, there's suddenly a ton of additional configuration to get the third-party APIs working.

Why the fuck do you even provide a testing environment, if it's completely different from the live one?

Leave or live with it

A quote that I live by:

"Make it work. Make it right. Make it fast."

There is no Coronavirus on Mars.

A pretty safe place to live or we will infect it.

no one taught me how to host anything web, i had to figure out how to get things live by myself. it was awful, documentation on that stuff sucks, but i got through it knowing far more than when i started.

So one of my employees pointed it local setup on the live database to test some weird behavior in an algorithm. Then he starte the next task and wiped his database to reload the fixtures. After that he realized, that he still had the live database credentials in his configuration file.

Made parsers that are downloading and parsing 100 years of law data right now.

I am so happy I don’t have to read every document and just let computer do it for me.

That are great times we live in.

We live for the moments when your code compiled and runs like it should!

When your favorite DJ comes to town but you cannot enjoy him playing live just because you don't have a girl to go with it.

I am done for 2016 already. This is so depressing. Guy J in town.

I once accidentally deleted the live versions of my websites instead of the development versions (which I wanted to delete because I was going to start over from the live versions.) After several hours of digging through backup folders, I finally found the latest backup files, which were a few months old.

It took me a few hours to get the backed up versions to the same version they were when they were live. In all this, I have learned to keep the live and development versions of my sites in completely different locations.

Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live... because if I don't know now, I will find it out.

Site live for over 8 months, client contacts me saying a web form is not working. Check through code missing $ on a variable. Shit, it must never have worked. Checked through error logs and sure enough its been bust since it went live. I changed the variable to pull in their email address rather than mine when i pushed it live and missed off the $. Trying to think of a plausible and client friendly excuse.

That feeling when you're finally done with a pretty big PR and ready to go live. You excitedly send it out to a few of your peers, and then... 20 comments! The real work has just begun 😭

Boss found a bug, fixed it and told him it was commited. Replies couple days later with "you should really check your code better", after checking the live site. Told him that the code still isn't live, just commited (as I wrote), no reply. Admins...

You either die a IT or live long enough to see yourself become the programmer

Isn't it beautiful? It's a DS game. I LOVE it when they use the lowest resolution textures because of hardware limitations, yet use real 3D. I want to live in this picture. It feels like home.

Or is it my life that has impacted coding? I'm so glad I was born in the right time. I can't even imagine what I would do instead of coding if I had to live in say, the middle ages.

"Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."

This is good to remember this one once in a while...

Thanks, AfterShip.com, for working flawlessly while the system I was building was in dev/test mode and for the first few days in live mode, then completely crapping the bed the first day I needed you to work with real tracking data with the live system. You were the ONE thing that was working consistently well, and you had to go and ruin it.

My toilet paper roll is fucked, the rip line only goes half the width of the roll so it always tears off a part of the next piece

We cannot live in a world of chaos

It sucks, when your clients live in a different timezone and they start to work and complaining about things just when you want to leave the office.

So tired today and just realized spent all day on a wild goose chase..

Somehow the test results were wrong... It said the data was out of sync but checking the live data today... They're an exact match...

when you build the whole landing page, forms, php mail sender, SMTP, marketing integrations, analytics and all of that from scratch, and 1 hour before it goes live your boss tells you to change some inputs on the form.

My company got drunk in the meeting decided to go out to town and live it up ... we got loads of work done... I swear...

When a website you use doesn't work and you have to fix it yourself.

Looks like someone hasn't been testing their code before pushing it live...tut tut

Anyone here been to/live in Sweden? I've been thinking about going over at some point, what's it like?

One of those mysterious bugs that only happens on production. Want to solve it on your laptop, it's not reproducible. Staging server? Nope. Production?

HOW DARE YOU TOUCH THE LIVE SYSTEM?!?

tests? ain't nobody got time foh dat. my brain already does all the job. it assumes and says to myself "all tests passed ✅" whenever i make quick changes

i like to live dangerously 😂

Live deployment next week Monday but Product Owner really need this new fix in.

Can you code, push to test, test it, push to acceptance test, UAT it before Friday...

It's Wednesday today 😐

Project manager says ok 😱

I just searched like half an hour for a book.. Then I started tabbing to Google but it wasn't working.. I was a bit shocked when I noticed this was real live.

I think i like the new Galaxy S8.

I will probably buy it. But, even thinking of buying such an expensive phone makes me feel guilty.

Maybe it's because i can barely afford it..

I guess i have to live with this guilt :/

Client's Devs Yesterday: "We are ready for a production test, and should be ready to go live in 1 week."

Today after successful test: "We need 6 weeks of production before going live"

How can you be so far off on your timelines? A solo dev has done this same flow in like three weeks. It has already been three months...

If you don't dream it, you won't live it.

Is it normal to get proposals like "look at x.com , we need exact replica with exact features. Build front end, back end and make it live."

Uber-tacos i live in mexico City , so it could be a good buisness.

Just suggested to the question on how to merge pdfs to a single large one to use MS Word for that.

It was a Linux only group.

I live dangerous in other ways as well.

So, what am I supposed to do?
Is it that hard to just read the page before going live?

Someone once forced my team to make something live on a Friday, that wasn't ready and wasn't tested properly. I said no and had to go pick up the kids from school. Found out later they made one my team stay late to finish it and push it live, even though I told everyone to leave on time.

Lots of meetings the week after where I got told off for standing up for my principles. Eventually reached an agreement.

At least some common ground was found and changes were no longer pushed before the weekend.

Am I the only one who doesn’t like live streaming.. everywhere online seems to want me to watch live streams..

Especially YouTube and Facebook.. I just don’t get it. When I wanna watch something on the web I want to be able to go forward and backwards and skip parts I don’t like...

So what’s the point of it? I genuinely do not understand it.

BI guys ask us to avoid deploy on Fridays cause they don't have time to fix their stuff.

"We cannot test until it is live..." They said.

I hate guys who prefer production driven development.

We came across a bug that only manifested itself in Edge if, and only if, the developer console was closed. Which we only discovered once it went live since during testing we always had the console open to monitor things... D:

I need a new hobby. Programming doesn't excite me anymore, at least not how it did a couple of years back. I'd like to get into robotics and stuff, but everything's expensive where I live. I'd like to get into cars, also too expensive where I live. I like playing video games, but I suck at them and they bring me no feeling of having accomplished something. Sports? Suck at them too. I'd like to ski, but I live in South America. I just don't know what to do with my free time. Programming feels like a chore nowadays, but it's all I have.

TIFU by running DELETE-INSERT on a live server and losing thousands of rows from a separate table. 🤤

TIL If you delete data from indexed table, it will affect any linked tables. I think. Fml. 🤕

At least it was a learning experience for all of us. Hopefully if I keep repeating it enough it will become true...

Hey guys, I wouldn't really mind if you moved the live devrant podcast thing to a later time, I have school and I would kill or die to be there for it. Kill. Or. Die.

Me: so we've added bunch of features to our app so that everything updates live automatically and you can edit it online and sort and filter and do bunch of other stuff.

Boss: great, how do I export it to xls?

Have fun!

I think the linux live CDs with games on it, that my dad had compiled for me, were one of my first exposures to computers.

I remember how if you passed some specific argument, it would talk to you in a pretty sci-fi female voice too.

So I was reverse proxying this new Social network app's API and saw an interesting endpoint

It was a websocket relaying what each live user's doing every 2.5s, to power the "xyz typing" under a post, or a simple online/idle.
The app's "live posts" ie most-recently created posts was also powered by it since they knew each user's state (instead of a periodic API call)

The performance is good even tho it's a new company + enough users

but now im curious how prevelant state-management is using such websockets .-.

if not taxing, i might move any API call which ive to ping every 15s or less to a live WS

do you guys have problem with not receiving the proper tools for work where you live? here in brazil it seems like a given that companies won't provide good software and hardware for workers

Trying to install Fedora to use some Linux stuff

- have to try booting up 3 times to boot into the live env successfully

- keyboard doesn't work, try booting up again

- installer crashes

Yeah fuck this back to Windows it is.

Someone called me and asked why wasn't Linux live USB working. I asked him to check whether safe boot was disabled from bios. His reply I can't find boot settings in windows settings.

This would not be a big thing if it was some non technical person. The person who called me was a CS student.

*claps*

I think he was trying to find a runnable file from the live USB.

Happy New year
May you have a year that is filled with love and bugs, laughter and debugging , brightness and dark theme , hope and distro hopping and little less windows vs linux shit 😂 please arch guys you too 🙄😝
Wish you all a great year 😅😛

I rarely post anything but I'm pretty active reading every shit post here. we fucking have a great community here. Few people are going through some real shit , hey you, things will get better don't lose hope but don't just wait on it , things don't ever get better by just wishing. Do what has to be done no matter how hard that decision can be.
Cut all those toxic people from your life doesn't matter who they're. You all deserve better
Believe in yourself. Everyone is going through some real shit. Keep fighting. Live for yourself.
You got only one life live upto your fill potential.
Regret is the worst thing so do whatever the fuck you want to do.
Never give up doesn't matter what you're going through.
And in the end may you "live" all the days of your life.

For crying out loud stop arguing how you are correct when your dev config was live and you took down 4 web servers. You fucked up and should admit it.

"Coding and testing of the iOS app will be done tomorrow. Then we need to sign and publish it + pass review so it might be live this time next year"

Can we rename "Life at {Company}" ?
We don't want to live in our work.
There is a reason we call it "work-life" balance, both are different things.

!rant; story(well, kinda)

I made it! Hell fucking fuck yeah! I made it, I made it, I made it! I passed all exams! See you in Prague, at ČVUT!(those who happen to study/live there or nearby)
life.setStatus("Winning!");

One of my commits today:
“Corrected a file path for view as it’s causing issues within the live environment”

What I actually wanted to put:
“Changed letter to uppercase in file path for view because live is being a fucking bitch about it”

Why do my Dev and Live environments have to differ 😞, I kept my cool though, which is a first for me 🙂

Does anyone here watch or create live-coding sessions on livecoding.tv? I'm going to experiment with it this afternoon, bc it sounds fun.

Got half my college calling me "Pennywise" cause I work at the "IT" department. Thanks Saturday Night Live!

How dangerous am I?
I code it live.

I code while people are working on our website and make all the changes live. And if I notice an abrupt stop in responses to our logs I git stash my changes.

Who called it "enabling interrupts" and not "SMASH that button to get notified the next time this hardware goes live".

Courtesy: Twitter.

I am convinced that after this years-over-timeline millions-over-budget website goes live we will all be fired because it is dog shit.

Hurray!

It looke like we can go live next week \o/

*Dances with armor*

entering world as name in live chat so it returns hello world

That one mistake you make in the initial stage and you have to live with it. build your code base around it. Since it will be too expensive to remove it. 😕😕😕😕😬😬😬

People have been thinking about creating an IRC channel for live ranting. Why not just do it?
Feel free to join #devrant in freenode IRC

Just upgraded to OxygenOS 10..... and realized it don't have Live Captions.... which is the only reason I upgraded....

I should've just kept LineageOS....

>be me a tech nerd

>see sexy women

>try to engage in conversation but only make werid gurgling noises

>never live it down

Pondering on what to call the act of copulation here on DevRant.
Feel free to add your suggestions!
My suggestion is "child class instantiation". One could on rare occasions call it "client server"...
I know, really childish of me, but I'm bored...

I need to improve my C skills to become a kernel developer, so that I can do that full-time at some point. And since it would be 100% remote I could live wherever I want and wouldn't need to PAY STUPID AMOUNTS OF RENT JUST TO LIVE IN A """CITY"""

Current deploy process on the legacy project I'm on right now: ssh to server, check out branch with new feature, test on live, if it works then merge to master and check out master.

Oh... Oh no...

This is a group sin.

We'd get the code checked and then run it straight to live. No test environments no real back up in place or process for releasing.

Just run code in if it broke run fix 1 through 3 until you got it right. That was two years ago.
