First new job impression;
Me: you use Ubuntu as well? Nearly everyone does Linux here I see!
Co-worker: yup!
Me: So no windows?
CW: nahh, we want stuff that's fixable if it gets fucked. *mentions some things about windows*
Other co-worker: (obviously referring to windows) hey no swearing in here!

😄😅😆

I like it there!

I would do this, if I had a job

YouTube: tapping like 1px out of the like button, obviously you want to reply to the comment
Facebook: let's just remove the like button altogether, only exposing it to the comment section
DevRant: let's make it possible to double-tap anywhere on the post to upvote it

Only one of them did things the right way 🤨

Don't you just love it when people make a whole freaking scene about you not studying when you fucking are and then make a scene about your obviously angered tone of voice when answering that you are?

Great times with family. /s

!rant

Fathers day today, my 6 year old passes me some presents.

First 3 opened.

Devrant cap
Devrant stressball
Devrant stickers

Yes son! (Well obviously, technically it was my wife) I assume she must have seen me on the app :)

At work, everytime someone finds a piece of code (their own or someone else's) that couldn't possibly have ever worked, we draw a line. Obviously preceded by finding out who wrote said code.

Hello world, this is my first rant :)

Today at work, this was on the whiteboard.
Little "war" between the iOS pole and the PHP pole :D (Obviously PHP is better)

Client: I have lost everything on the cloud holy crap!

Me: Are you signed into your google drive, and within the folder?

Client: No, how do i do that again? I obviously cant be bothered reading your well formated and instructional guide and would rather contact you at 6pm on a saturday night

The other day my girlfriend said that i could learn French in two weeks and proceeded to be preplexed when I said that obviously I couldn't.

She actually believed that me being able to learn a programing language In a week or two meant I could do it with any language.

Here skiddie skiddie... a collection of obviously fake "hacking tools" that bait skids into doxing themselves.

I really f*cking hate it when someone tells me they use PC and they look weirded out at me when I ask what operating system they use and say 'well I use PC so windows obviously' and then I'm like ' PC STANDS FOR PERSONAL COMPUTER NOT FOR F*CKING WINDOWS', man, can't stand those people

!rant

Communication with a new RFID-Reader:

"Hello RFID-Reader" - "何?"

Okay: "ハローリーダー" - "¿Qué?"

Seriously? "Hola lector RFID" - "Что?"

Wait a minute...
[puts wire into *correct* port of the development system]

"Hello RFID Reader" - "Hello"
- - -

It's been a long day and the brain is obviously the first thing to go to sleep... even when you're still awake.

Dev: Why do you have an identical if statement right below this one?

Manager: Because I want the code to double check, obviously.

Dev: …

The shortcut for opening chrome history on mac is ⌘Y

Why the fuck would anyone do this? Because when I want to open history, the first letter that comes to my mind is Y obviously.

Also, why is downloads J? Who comes up with these shortcuts?

Windows obviously did a secret selective poll on what percentage of their users use dates and times.
:#

I see software engineering mostly devolving to be simpler syntax, more widespread and reach more range of people, including non-tech ones.

That’s now obviously leading to more crappy javascript code, more abandoned frameworks, libraries, more shitty software and more dev rants.

Obviously.

It's so fuckin hard to work with people who don't get sarcasm or humour.

The UI guy gives me design (which is a regular design, not something unique)

Me: “wow fresh and unique design (obviously sarcasm).”
Designer: “thanks, I worked on this whole day. Glad you like it.”
Me: “huh...”

Now I feel like a terrible person.

Shamelessly copied of instagram (Obviously)
That instagram page probably stole it too, but that's non of my business

Behold the PHP pyramid of doom!
You know what kind of code is coming... a big pile of shite! 😍

Obviously you have to return by reference (&) because of performance and memory reasons. ☝️🤓

Man... I've seen code...

Just got a brand new car coming from a 1999 Honda CRV and holy shit the tech in these things is insane.. basically drives itself on HWY's, can start it from an app, does all sorts of weird stuff.. obviously it comes with risks of being hacked and all that but damn new cars are wicked these days.

Keep it going in the comments (obviously tech related lol)

MAJOR RANT:

Bug in question: Shortened URLs (that we generate dynamically because fuck you) would have a pipe character added in them, obviously breaking the URL.

I SPENT 3.5 DAYS DEBUGGING A MASSIVE, FRANKENSTEIN-LIKE CODE BASE TO FIND THIS:

Obviously the: "I feel like a god" feeling, when something i made works :)

(Even if it doesn't work the way it was supposed to lol)

Email and password passed as GET parameters, obviously

Made up my mind to quit my new job yesterday. Im constantly bored. Either I have no work assigned no matter how much I ask for more, or I get handed work where the solution is already identified.

Obviously gonna find a new job first, wish me luck!

"There are two ways of constructing a software design; one way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C. A. R. Hoare

Being a developer has it's advantages: I wanted to apply for a internet subscription for my home but my home adress wasn't recognized by the provider. So i wanted to send a complain form but this was only possible by providing it with a client number, which I obviously didn't have.
So this was my solution 🎉

I fucking hate people who tell me what i should do when they obviously dont know a fucking inch of anything related to the dev world fucking idiots ruining my day with fucking retarded orders.

I AM THE DEV UR THE FUCKING MANAGER STAY AT UR FUCKING PLACE

Obviously!

When you get a mail from a recruiter for a Java job, because you have JavaScript on your LinkedIn and it's obviously the same...

Random profesional behavior reminder:

The fact that you're obviously from a minority doesn't automatically make you non-racist. Specially, it doesn't give you immunity for being racist towards other minorities.

Just saying! Be racist outside of office hours, if you can. Or just... Keep that shit to yourself. 💩

First thing to do after downloading swift for linux is to obviously place the folder inside another folder named Taylor

Awesome got fired bc i caught the vp cooking the books by a factor of 1.2, mistakenly notified him of an obviously incorrect algorithm bc i thought the previous dev made a mistake.

I graduated college so I obviously have nothing left to learn ever again.

For the love of God, we don't care that you're failing to get 15 ++'s to get your sticker. Obviously, if it didn't get a measly 15, then your rant wasn't that relatable/funny/likeable. Ranting about ++'s isn't going to get your crap rants any more ++'s

Arrived at office then almost immediately the boss, who's also a developer, tells me he changed something on the protocol/api.

Me thinking: u just broke the api without thinking on consequences but hey... Ur the boss...

Later, he says: look, our app crashes!

Me: obviously...

:/ what the f**k was he thinking... :/

The worst kind of team member is the one that won’t follow and can’t lead. So obviously can’t lead 🙄!

I just started to use
"titties" for success message
and
"no titties" for error message

... I need friends... and titties obviously

Customer complained that the site was not rendering as it's supposed to. After spending hours trying to fix the bug I saw that the customer had zoomed the browser which obviously broke the rendering.

I'm so scared of the people on stackoverflow that my method for debugging a problem is to write up a question by which time I'm shocked into finding a solution. I'm just too scared of being ridiculed by some narcissistic dev (who obviously never makes any mistakes, ever) or, heaven forbid, having my question down voted and closed.

oh you want a code challenge for the interview? sure let me do that just like the 5 other companies i've had to do that for

like dude, look at any one of my multiple websites, saas apps, or mobile apps i've shipped. obviously i know what i'm doing

I was reading devrant.

Obviously I was laughing while reading different rant's.

My curious friend

F: what are you reading? Look's something funny.
M: devrant
F: what?
M: it is developer's community.
F: show
*After reading few rant's*

F: 😪
Nothing interesting

M: don't ask me again about your pc , mobile, software issues
😏

Making cocktails.

(And, obviously, drinking them :))

Every scrum meeting where I can't figure out what I should claim that I did yesterday...

"Scrolled devRant and 9GAG" obviously isn't an option!

After spending around 8+ hours on an Adobe After Effects project (which I obviously didn't save), at around 12 at night, it crashed.

I lost everything. Was heartbroken. Died inside. Nearly cried. Then I restarted the app and started from scratch.

The weird thing is I recreated the entire thing in around 1.5 hours. Not sure if I'm happy or sad with myself.

This bonehead wants to delete your C++ code. He obviously means that to use this for out-of-source builds, but still pretty dumb and easy to mess up.

I created a REST API for a customer that one of their customers should use. I sent some documentation and code samples to the "developer". He didn't understand why he should send css to the API. He obviously couldn't tell json from css...

I couldn’t get a dev duck ,
So here comes Dev Spider-Man!!!
Well he’s obviously good at coding , cos you know , he works on the web 🤣

Was looking for an unknown call blocker when I came across an app which says something like 'call blocker'. The first person in the reviews gave it one star with the text: it doesn't block sms.

IT OBVIOUSLY DOESN'T HAVE YOU LOOKED AT THE FUCKING TITLE/DESCRIPTION YOU FUCKING DIPWIT

Indian tech companies can put in weird skill requirements at times. See point 2, for fuck's sake is this real?! And it obviously contradicts point with point 5 right?

Priority is obviously only family.

Apparently because someone works in IT they can hack an IPad.

Once i figure out the secret of hacking Apple devices i will obviously share it with you.

I woke up to 70 messages yelling at me to help a friend install window from a USB(mostly just follow directions). My first thought obviously being. 'Didn't I give her instructions 3 weeks ago. Why is she just now trying to install it'. I chose to sleep for another hour 😂😂😂😂 no regrets

Obviously broken is better than slightly broken any day. Slightly broken you always wonder if that is how it always worked. Obviously broken you don’t have that problem.

My new car will obviously have a top speed of more than 2147483647 km/h...

Looking at git blame, I think I broke a feature 8 months ago. Not obviously broken, just one of the data fields is empty in one of our calculations.

I don't know if it's better or worse that nobody noticed...

!dev && rant
Temperature causing temper!!!

Summer 2009...
Me: Dad, can me and sis go swim in the pool?
Dad: No son, you can only swim if it's 25°C or higher.
Which in practice meant that we could only swim a few days each summer. Average in Belgium used to be about 21°C.

Spring 2019, my younger siblings...
Little sis: Mom, can we go swim in the pool?
Mom: Lol sure, it's only April but it's already way hot enough.. and during summer it'll be too hot to do the work on setting up the pool anyway.

Winter 2029, in Antarctica...
Me, to my children: During my old days my children, we had this thing called snow!! And we lived in the wasteland that used to be the glorious Europe, back when it was still habitable.. you should've seen it, now it's a desert, but back then it was awesome!
My children: Mum!! He's acting senile again, and talking about things that don't exist!!!

Coming to the crux of the problem right now, fuck me.. I'm tired as fuck but can't sleep because already in the fucking spring, my house is too fucking hot to be able to sleep without sweating like a pig!!!
AaaaaAAAAA 😣

"Why is the production database empty?"

Obviously, we had backups, but using the situation to make my employer shit his pants were funny. And yes, I'm still there

Toughest about this function was (obviously) naming.

Suggestions are (highly) appreciated

When you to busy paying for student stuff and can't afford a new Bluetooth headset.. Don't know why I'm studying software when I obviously should be a an engineer, duh..

That feel when someone answered your stackoverflow question and you accept, but a minute later someone posts a more detailed answer that obviously took a lot of effort 😐

Just finished signing my first ever professional contract. Shortly after I was given a conpany sheet where I had to give part of my personal info and answer some fun questions, one of which was what super power would you want to have?
My answer was obviously: The ability to always find the missing ';' 😂😂😂

Obviously the only right choice for my bathroom:

That moment when you've tried everything and nothing works and the only logical thing left to do is post a question on stackoverflow;
&wait;
&obviously rant on devRant while you wait;

I ordered a second hand mini laptop. (Mini as in 8 inch)

Now I obviously will put some kind of Linux distro onto it but I'm wondering which one I should choose.

Debian based is a must, except for that I don't know yet.

Ideas?

Just had the shittiest job interview ever. Had to do two tests. And since i was nervous as fuck and can't do proper JS i obviously failed!

Just me who cringes when people replace brand names they don't like with things like "winshit" or "shitter"?

Not defending any brands though, obviously.

Were you afraid of the dark as a kid? Obviously you were afraid because you were a racist. Now go relearn all the words surrounding systems too complex for me to figure out you racist bastards.

Sitting at Starbucks cause my train is delayed and it's the only place with freaking free wifi.

I found the stereotype hipster :D

A guy having Beats Headphones on with a MBP, iPhone X obviously next to his MBP, searching for Elon Musk Audiobooks and Courses for Smalltalk and Management on Audible 🤣

So, I was shopping with @terrus and we found this lost duck in the bakery shelf. We felt it was a call of fate... Obviously, we bought two of them 🦆🦆❤️

When your manager casually mentions that you're(me) going to learn developing apps for iOS, when you obviously have a built in hate for Apple.

You just sit there thinking about how the fuck the situation escalated unexpectedly quick.

I have no idea how this code that I wrote last year work and there's obviously no documentation but thankfully I gave my classes very useful names such as "YuDoDis", "Texter467", "TheHolyButton", "GARBAGE", etc. Fucking hate myself sometimes.

Looking at the version history of Git (which is obviously tracked by Git), it goes all the way back to the initial commit...for some reason this blows my mind.

For some reason, I started using Office 365 30 day trial a month ago, obviously, and yesterday, a month passed, but the product registered automatically and says it is a product officially signed with a product key.
Thanks Microsoft!
I <3 you!

(don't report this to nsa)

Just purchased a new house and was looking for a new ISP. Found a local ISP that is still offering dial up services and "Professional Website Design". Their website was obviously pre-web 2.0 all static nested tables and sliced images.

Can interviewers PLEASE stop asking cliche and terrible questions??
Interviewer: "Where do you see yourself in five years?"
Me: "Not with you guys obviously, you dumb piece of shit."
That's what I'd like to say to them at least... :/

It was a hackathon about this new very interesting totally-not-abused technology called Blockchain, so obviously I ignored everything and focused on picking up this cute tsundere girl (I did).
And somehow still got 2nd place lol  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't know who wrote the documentation of react native, but it is at some points obviously wrong.

I only created a fucking class, a FUCKING EMPTY CLASS

Cancel button does nothing, obviously.
After 30 seconds or so, everything is back to normal. This shit reminds me of the "good old days" with Eclipse.
I hated Eclipse back then, and I fucking hate VS now

Working for a startup:
"Two weeks? I'll build you the entire platform, draw illustrations, animate them and set up the infrastructure"

Working for a massive corporation:
"Two week sprint? Obviously a team of 10 people can't do more than just check the existing code."

Senior[0]: emacs is the best text editor
Senior[1]: yeah, right. It literally stands for Emacs Makes A Computer Slow.
ME: GNU loves recursive acronyms, don't they?
Senior[0]: lol
Senior[1]: lol
ME: what?
Senior[0]: he obviously made it up
Senior[0]: no, I didn't. Use vim ffs.

Oh right it's my birthday. Or at least it was a minute ago. Because obviously everyone cares.

when your senior decides that his way of solving a problem is obviously the only way....

When everything works well and there is no error, obviously something went wrong and there is an error.

Obviously the sweet feeling of making a machine do my bidding

1) Using ScreenRecord record a video deleting his work folder(fake one obviously).

2) create command line vlc player to play this video on startup with flags -f and --no-qt-fs-controller

Eg. vlc -f --no-qt-fs-controller file://<file path>

Enjoy the show 👿

Monday starts amazing.

Team Leader is mad that i didn't attend a party, and insists to know, why i wasnt there.

An event, that per my understanding was obviously an optional event, where colleagues meet, talk about some stuff, and then eat and drink, because it was fucking worded that way in the email. Ah and in that email they also asked us to actively respond, if we want to participate.

Me, naturally: Obviously an optional event, go figure.

Is anyone here familiar with generating PNG files from MBTiles files?

I've tried multiple libraries but keep ending up with black, non readable, PNG files which is starting to get really fucking annoying.

(Platform is Linux, obviously)

So anyone else has thoughts about Google and Facebook taking a stand against "fake news" online?

I mean obviously we could all do with a little less nonsense in our feeds, but where do we draw the line until this becomes 'censorship'.

Ubuntu: Lulz your trackpad drivers don't work and there's no solution other than compiling them yourself or something it might not even work because it's for a different model but just hope and pray ok? also your wifi obviously fucking won't work. What, are you retarded?

Manjaro: Ye I gotchu. Mouse works outta the box. WiFi too

I was a little bit tired this morning, so obviously I pulled a sick day.

!rant

I'm a Windows slowly trying to convert to Linux (except for stuff that you need Windows for, obviously).

Being relatively new to desktop Linux, which distribution do you recommend with which desktop environment?*
Any tips for newbies? :)

*I'm aware that this could end up in a fight that divides devRant :P

I have the same problem as @linuxxx does. Buying things when I really don't need to.

I went to a mall with a friend today because his headset was literally falling apart. We both bought new headsets. Great.

Lesson learned: Don't leave your house unless necessary.

Most useless feature: an extension that did the exact same thing as an opensource extension so that the company could hide the code and not include licenses (???)

ps.: they obviously used open source frameworks and libraries

I love when @GodHatesMe comments on a rant and people start replying.

I read their name + comment as a single sentence.

@GodHatesMe Because tabs are better, obviously! (fake example)

It literally changes every point people try to make.

Fucking useless cunt that was supposed to set up glass fibre and a router still hasn't appeared. They gave me a 3 hour timeframe of when the person would show up, but obviously that those fucktards cannot even do that. I had to stay at home, instead of working, for this fucking treatment...

Looked into my spam/junk folder and found this. I don't have a C-Panel account, just so you know. I took a look into the link to check it out. It's quite obviously an attempt at phishing. (more screenshots in the comments)

well obviously... :eyeroll:

When the previous dev has written all datetime query lookups by date only, resulting in any values for the ladt day of the month to not be included.

THANK YOU.

Same wanker has copied and pasted same 100 lines of code over and over and literally changed one value in between. Obviously never heard of a function.

!dev

I'm checking out at Walgreens right now and have an item with a security device on it. The cashier just took a pair of scissors to it. Didn't work obviously and now I think she's trying to rip the cords off the box

Visual Studio 2022 compiles our internal c++ cmake project as a mix of x86 and x86_64 binaries, then fails to link.

VS 2019 correctly compiles everything as x86_64.

No idea why. And, obviously, it's not a documented problem.

Obviously my future 🤷‍♂️

"You obviously nerfed something, it's broken now and it wasn't last patch!"

*git log shows nothing changed in 9 months*

When players know more about your code than your version control does...

OBVIOUSLY maths, physics, chemistry, Litterature, rethorics, sociology AND OF COURSE, playing chess

By far the biggest challenge is naming your classes and variables in your native language instead of using english. And obviously you end up with a hidious mix of english and native terms 😂

Obviously, chef. Human always need food. AI not good at cooking.

I wonder whether I use software one of you has written, without knowing it (obviously) ..

There was this guy at my college who wrote his whole C project without any kind of functions, just 500 lines inside the main function. Obviously he failed.
#mastersOfCode

Sartre once said "Hell is other people" .

Obviously he did not use public transportation very often.

For all the linux weebs tired of the Windows v/s Linux debate,

how about <strike>arguing over</strike> <b>agreeing with the obviously true fact of</b> how "nano is the *best* command-line editor, better than the *obscure* ed or the *vague cryptic* vim"
:))))))))))))))))))

The Qt ide lost me three files aka 1 week of work... Obviously it overwrote them with zeros so I cant recover them... Backups??? Well i didnt think of murphys law....

OpenSSL, Nginx, OpenSSH, Node.JS, V8 and Firefox

There are obviously many more :-)

I actually haven't seen anyone use spaces🤔. I have obviously seen people who use neither

When a university-wide mailing list system restricts posting to a list based solely on the From address... I was able to telnet port 25 from an outside server (so obviously no SPF either), pretend I'm admin@, and send a message to all students and staff...

FINALLY, all my dreams have come true, now I can totally say I don't really miss Linux all that much (although I work with Linux all the time, as all my VMs are on Ubuntu).

Obviously, Microsoft has a port of the ssh client and server on windows.

Fucking hell. I usually really like firefox but today it was a real pain in the ass to download sth. It wold download 99% and then stop. I couldn't stop the download and the file was obviously not working. I had to switch to edge and both the design and the fast download really appealed to me. Ffs firefox!

My current co-worker takes this prize. He's quiet, good at what he does and only communicated with me when absolutely necessary or when we are both obviously on some down time. Cheers to you, mate!

So, a spaghetti legacy code, written by some dude that obviously hates his job, needs update and we argue about spaces vs tabs....

I hate the tech influencers that talk about clown strike and they obviously have no idea what they’re talking about go watch John Hammond before talking about what cnn said you assfuck
Y’know what maybe I just hate tech influencers

What do my family think I do as a Dev?
The most stereotypical thing you can think of, they think I sit on my ass all day procrastinating.

Obviously they're wrong.... I do some work now and then.... only now and then...

We had some PR’s this morning. Colleage rewrote an app. Restructured everything. Broke some things. Not a single comment and merged to master.

I get questions like: WhY dO yOu PuT a BuTtOnPrEsS aNd A mOuSeCliCk HeRe?

FOR ACCESSIBILITY ASSHOLE!!! SOMETHING YOU OBVIOUSLY NEVER HEARD OF!!!

Am I the only one that has an obsession with collecting stickers? I don't even stick them. Dev stickers are my favorites obviously.

I never knew stackoverflow would be my new best friend, obviously after Google. 😅

Even when you search for every word in the name of the desired extension in order and sort by relevance, it still shows up 8th on the results.

I would say "obviously powered by Bing", but at least it showed up on the first page at all.

Yes. Obviously there is a problem in production. At friday night. Yes. Ok. Think happy thoughts.

I AM LOOKING AT YOU SAN!!!!

FUUUUUU

Obviously Facebook wasn't made for quick typers... The page handles the 'enter' press after the beginning of my next message, even though i clicked in the opposite order... Good job Facebook...

Currently taking apart a 25 year old scalextric power supply, trying to work out why one side isn't working. I'm thinking about buying a soldering iron, but can't see anything obviously wrong...

So guys I'm about to buy a laptop, I want something that will endure, I was thinking about 16 ram, 1 TB with SSD, and obviously 17.3" screen, any suggestions?

Fuck me, I lost my motivation AGAIN!
I mean, yea, this is a big project and I alone am obviously not enough workforce to do it, but I at least hoped for a prototype. And instead of writing anything like that, I end up writing all sorts of unnecessary modules and wrappers for game engine functions. Grrr.

I'm reluctantly in charge of my company... for now. Trying to avoid any of those fancy, personally cringe-worthy, titles like owner, boss, acronyms starting with a C.

My solution, suits our unique branding, is having my role as:
DragonOverlord

Any arguments as to it actually being a position are quickly thwarted, as it's obviously a class.

I am so pissed about my isp. They are so obviously throttling me. I am paying for business, and barely getting dsl speeds.

Everyone here who complains about slow Android studio obviously never tried to compile LLVM/Clang from source.

Obviously, I overdid it with the assembly study assignment this morning - just tried to bit-mask a variable using "andi". In C#.

Dev goal: finishing my lightweight webserver in c++ so there's no need for apache or nginx and I can finally add logic to my webpages without php.

And finishing all my other personal projects obviously :D

I want to stop for a while, leave the city and go live somewhere quiet. Grow my own food and raise some cute chickies. Then I'll probably miss coding, but definitely not the corporate hellholes I worked and still work for. This is obviously not a goal for this year but my wish for before I turn 40.

DevRant has increased my asshole-ery. Reading work design docs and I keep thinking, "really? That's your choice? Obviously this is a joke. You expect us to do what?? In what timeframe?"

Did you ever take advantage of clients that has less computer literacy? Like have you ever escape a bug in the system by telling the client heavy technical BS! 😋

PS - fixings that bug later obviously!!

You know these things that are obviously coming but you do not want to do them at any cost so you just keep on pushing them away?

Well it looks like I'm going to be homeless in January...

Why does your BS app (that is obviously made with electron because of course it is) feels entitled to put its garbage into my Documents folder?

Me, 5 years ago:
Light theme sucks, everything must join the dark side!

Me, now older and obviously wiser:
Actually, light theme is nice, it forces you to work in daytime, with less frequent headache.

Anyone that tells you "jquery is stupid" is either a pro or obviously hasn't tried to do drag and drop with the html5 api.

What a pain in the fucking ass bunch of boilerplate bullshit.

Pulling a Statler and Waldorf, and getting away with it. Obviously self-justifying.

I just can keep the gdpr memes and rants coming, this is getting out of hand, a fucking contact form needs a checkbox, that you fucking obviously "store" it, by sending a fucking email, are you absolutely out of your mind, what do you expect I do, just /dev/null route your shit? maybe I should, shitheads.

Is it weird to be a furry as programmer?

Professor to the whole class: Apache tomcat runs on port 80 which is the same port used by skype
Me: (change the port of tomcat to something else, obviously)
Professor: Kill Skype
Me: 😐😐

Python: I heard you like importing stuff explicitly, so I made sure you had to import every mother-fucking thing you need. Even the things that you obviously need and couldn't possibly do anything without.
What's that? You want more import statements than actual code? Look no further than Python, my friend. At least it scales, amirite?

I make code that lets the blocks enter an inactive state so that they stop ticking after they are no longer able to spread to any nearby blocks.

Obviously something in this either broke, and the blocks never turn inactive. NEVER.

This actually has some dire consequences, including, but not limited to, this:

Fucking love it when the windows copy/move dialog gets stuck at 100% with 0 items remaining and I can't get rid of the damn window for 20 seconds.

Windows is obviously the superior OS.

Today I spent half an hour trying to figure out why my IDE stops on an exception that is very obviously caught.
I left a breakpoint there because the stack traces behaved weirdly.

Well obviously, no 😂

I'm starting with php on Ubuntu and using xampp. Obviously I been having trouble but when I find the solution for every problem I yell OH MY GOD IM A FUCKING CRACK MOTHERFUCKA

wwoooo..
back from the dead with linux :)
like i said my internet wasn't working last time. trying to fix it i uninstalled something essential and obviously at this point im banging my head lol managed to get files back and wiped for reinstall. the wireless is back though!!

What's up with bitbucket? For the last 2 months it's been down numerous times, obviously when you need it the most :(

I have developed a talent for detecting Indian tutorials. It doesn't matter, I'll obviously still watch if their accent isn't really thick (and they don't use Hinglish!) But I just can tell.

Something about their choice of design in presentation is distinct and when you see it... The accent isn't far away.

Hey

Anyone looking into how A.I. can improve language learning courses (and obviously, speech recognition) and such?

I know, A.I. buzzword, but I think it's applicable here..

Who is actually coding A.I. right now anyway? anyone?

One thing I have truly learned from software development is DON'T REINVENT THE WHEEL. Someone out there may have already implemented such functionalities and if the library is missing something a PR is always welcomed! (Obviously taking about open source libraries)

"It should be fairly simple to find a service to do this thing."

Then why are you assigning me the task instead of handling it yourself? Obviously if it's that simple you already did all the research on the possible options, right? In which case, why waste my time? :P

One thing that i found in common among most of rants was devs getting annoyed by people who interrupt them while coding, obviously it's because we love what we do while in most jobs they wish for someone interrupting them so they can stop working for a while

I'm currently in France and after watching my first YouTube video here, I learnt to import lessons: 1. You can't escape from the udemy ads 2. The French seem to pronounce python (as in the language, obviously) like a French word...

Client calls and rants about that he lost mails. He deleted them and says they are now gone. His previous hoster didn't delete trashed mails and he always looked them up inside of it. We told him that this is how our server works. It deletes deleted mails. And we obviously didn't transfer old deleted mails.

My computer started crashing two days ago. Logs say its the audio driver. Now I wanted to start the diagnosis just for fun. Guess what? The conclusion of it was: You have a low volume level, we will increase it by 20%p... GOD DAMN. YOU HAD ONE JOB TO DETECT THE DRIVER IS OBVIOUSLY CORRUPTED (Reason: Unknown)

When you join a project that has no testing, no component policy, a lot of css mixins, that has to work simultaneously as a pwa, android and ios app.

Oh, yes, obviously no documentation at all *flips table*

How to interpret when you receive bugs reported for your application?
Should I be happy that someone is using them or just be sad that I gotta fix them and how poorly I wrote the code.

Note: will obviously consider turning some of them into features. Though not all.

I love when recruiters ring me up telling me all about the fantastic opportunity they have for a junior php Dev role a hundred miles away, offering 13k a year. These guys obviously don't read cv's

On today's episode of... The shit people will try to pull off to get you work longer hours.

Guilt tripping.

I mean, seriously? That one can be smelled from miles away and it is obviously a clear red flag that you're a manipulative person.

Why would you even try it? Have some respect for yourself.

I hate quotes/estimates so damn much

Quote too high and we don't win the work
Quote too low and I screw myself/other devs over

And then there's the fact that most initial quotes for an entire project are based off nothing but a few marketing slides from the potential client; we do re-estimate after winning the work and nailing down what the client actually wants, but obviously it can't be too far from the initial quote

And then there are other people on the company (not devs, obviously) who like to casually expand the scope without checking how much time it'll add

One week ago I've made a work plane to divide features development day by day, obviously procrastinating
This morning I realized the project release was today
I made an entire mobile app with a plethora of features without bugs in an afternoon.
Never worked so hard in a so limited time without problems.
Loved it.

What the best PHP framework? In your opinion, obviously

Exit vim as per my will.

Reason:- Obviously

When your partner decides right as you are able to sleep is the time to be worrying. No that freckle on your arm doesn't look like a bed bug bite. You've obviously never seen a bedbug bite. Now I have to look them up on Google to prove I'm correct. ಠ_ಠ

At my new job, we use WordPress. So obviously there's shitload of stuff to rant about. But because of those shitload WordPress stuff, I don't have the time to rant about it, and after work , don't wanna think about it.

Why would you shame someone for a no repro when the page was clearly removed AFTER I raised the bug? Obviously if the page wasn't there before, I couldn't have reported on it!!!

#QAproblems

Whoever came up with the idea of react styled components was obviously not loved as a child.

Hi fellow devs!

As a developer it is a crucial to be productive. Obviously the most effecient way is to get in the flow.
What is your rituale to reach this state?

Tales from University Tech Support:

Me: please send us 2 or 3 times you're available for us to troubleshoot that issue
Them: I'm available at 3:30

Obviously not a Math Major...

I just got a new computer, and obviously it comes with windows installed. But I go too used to Linux and now windows just feels weird.

Maybe I should apply to be a dev for totaljobs, because they obviously have issues...

Are automatically configured antivirus tools simply shit or is it IT , who obviously does not know what their software does?

* AV blocks parts of my dev tools
* Ticket to IT
* Result: AV blocks all my dev tools

Okay ... thanks?

Why do *popular* devs prefer OSX over Ubuntu, Mint or other linux distribution? Don't they like to support open source? I just picked a MBA and have spent time with it but I still prefer Ubuntu.

Note - By popular, here I mean those devs who are noteworthy on Twitter, Github etc. I won't speak names obviously.

I'm more of a computer person (obviously, that's why I'm here), but I'm super proud of myself that I was able to replace a belt in my car!

Next comes the brakes, but that one can wait a week or so...

Performing code review for design quality.

So you return HTTP code 200 for 'ok'. So what do you return when things are not 'ok'?

Obviously something that's not 200. Like 300 (The message with the code was literally "not okay").

Built my first user generated content loading system that I still use today (obviously cleaned up code that doesn't contain the words fuck and cunt every second variable)

I don't like any jokes and pranks. As I don't understand any of them (obviously, they mostly aren't space or cryptography related) I don't ever do any pranks...

To anyone with good knowledge of RxJs:

Should I be careful how many subscriptions I have open at a time? I'm specifically thinking about memory usage.

While obviously it's more, does it make a huge impact on memory usage, if I have 20 subscriptions active, compared to 2?

when did you follow PHP developers last used PHP without a framework or at least used PHP itself for the most part?

a foreach and if don't count .. obviously 😁

It's obviously a Friday because to delete the file I accidently made called ~ I decided to run rm -r ~

Fml

Spent an hour trying to optimize some code but none of the stuff I was trying (rearranging/overlapping DMA transfers with other stuff for some ye olde concurrency) seemed to be doing anything.

Aaand obviously the stupid thing was set to autobuild Debug config on save but I was testing Release config. Sigh.

Throughout my career I worked with quite some awesome engineers. However, only very few of them also do engineering as a hobby. (The shitty engineers obviously don't do it, otherwise they wouldn't be shitty.) Just thinking.

How long do you guys tend to keep SQL migration scripts around?

Obviously they don't use up much disk space, but they do start to create clutter in a project

An ex boss, who is obviously a project / marketing manager, claims he understands code and all, couldn't even edit the text inside a html element. R U SRS?

The larger the company, the less money they spend on softwares. Ultimately at a large enterprise: "Do it for free, becasue we didn't calculate this in the budget. But obviously we already sold the solution to the high management with next week as a go-live date..."

So today in school I decided on my career choice. So I've decided on becoming a data scientist because I can still use my programming and I very much do like looking at data and researching things as well as program obviously :) so if there are any data scientists or data miners out there do you have advice?

A team blacklisted a series of words in order to prevent XSS. Obviously they failed terribly. Like they filtered 'alert(' and crap like that. Like a hacker is going to alert stuff using xss. I opened a bug to their team.

i have to edit a few html templates in our database, obviously automatically generated by a visual editor, full of nonsense in it, no line breaks, and i don't have access to a good html editor. fuck me

Ranting for swag, for a living or both, that's how we're meant to roll, obviously.

Copilot is experiencing temporary issues (click for details)

Click doesnt work.

Nor does Copilot right now. (obviously)

Glad I pay $10 a month for this garbage.
