I sang in front of the clients to demo an app for 30 seconds. It's a dating app that allow users to sing and record a song and send it to other person. It's a famous way of courting here in the Philippines.

That was my ridicolous and embarrassing meeting ever. Hahahaha

!rant: A friend posted the frontpage of a local newspaper in the Philippines. The summary is in 'lorem ipsum'! I checked it online(epaper) and it is still there! Someone's gonna be in big trouble...

Scary billboard here in philippines

Are you fucking kidding me? One of many annyoning websites/apps in the Philippines.

Just attended Azure DevOps Launch here in Philippines

Here in Philippines, you can basically do whatever you want if you're a corrupt politician.

This is an example of a peak human (or politician, whatever you want to call it) displaying dominance by discussing about VueJS while having 0% experience on the technology.

So I have this 13 year old cousin who's pretty determined to follow my footsteps as a developer someday. He really likes gaming and all internet stuffs. His future plans makes me happy since I may finally have a relative that is a developer. But darn it! He's kinda weird coz he still throws tanrums. One of his major tantrums(which happened again last night) is that he wants the wireless Karaoke machine to be turned off because he thinks that it's slowing down the internet. It was his sister's birthday party and the guests are partying. I've told him many times that the signal for the karaoke is different from that of the router which has nothing to do with the internet slowing down. It must be caused by q device that is updating some apps or whatever. We live in the philippines and our internet provider is quite fast but it has this stupid fair usage policy that caps our bandwidth to a minimum speed if we reach a certain amount of data usage. Since he goes to youtube everyday in 480 and 720p, I explained it to him that it was one of the causes.
Last night, I almost got triggered because I wanted him to believe about the wifi being different to that of the karaoke machine's radio and that it is not connected to the wifi and not using data. I also told him about different kinds of wireless signals which I studied as a Software Engineering student back then and yet he still doesnt believe me. And what almost triggered me is that i saw his steam client updating while watching youtube. I told him that was it. But instead of agreeing, he refused to believe me and just told me that steam is just updating and he's not downloading anything which made me think why he keeps going to youtube, because...he's not downloading. Oh God! Good luck to this kid. 😂

The tale of the asinine Typescript framework guy continues:

>guy makes a framework
>promotes it
>people don't wanna use it because it's mediocre
>doesn't care, he still promotes it
>people started criticizing his framework
>won't listen
>calls his critics haters
>thinks PH tech guys are way behind the world
>says a lot of bad takes in tech himself
>such as NodeJS used as a front-end
>people tryna correct his bad takes
>calls them haters too
>people start complaining
>gets banned in many PH tech communities
>except one
>total windbag in there
>somebody calls him out, explains why they hate him
>he says his framework will be famous and we will all be eating dust
>heckler tells him he is not only the person in the open source community and tells him a famous Filipino open source contributor
>says he doesn't know this famous contributor and he doesn't care
>challenges heckler to confront him face to face
>heckler calls his bluff and gives a place and time to meet
>big guy agrees to meet
>people are clamoring for him to shut up
>admin tells him and the heckler to shut up
>big guy pushes it
>calls the admin (female) a puta (whore)
>gets banned
>goes on Facebook saying that his heckler will not show up in that place despite it being the favorite hangout place of the heckler since 2017
>that he is being banned because of haters
>people call him out on his Facebook posts and he takes them down
>people in the tech community started thrashing his Github with prank forks and PRs
>guy tries to shame them on Facebook
>gets rekt by tech people
>goes on Twitter saying that backward PH devs are oppressing him
>even tagging the famous devs

@marcusignacius I have lost total sympathy for this guy and his framework. Arrogant, petulant, childish, and uncharitable. honestly he brought this on himself.

Somebody honestly slap him this rant on Twitter pretty please.

You can never ever stop using PHP, specially in Philippines!

So I just recently found out there's a local idol group named MNL48 in here.

Basically bringing the seiyuu/J-Pop culture in the Philippines.

Maybe I should've became an idol instead of a senior high school programmer :/

Time check 12:21AM in Philippines. Someone is knocking on our house. Suprisingly received a swag from #devrant. Thank you guys!

I'm Programmer/Analyst in one of the hgh ranking BPO company here at Philippines.

I'm currently on a project, I'm on a team who's managing machines parts. The project is CATERPILLAR.

The biggest challenge here is if there is a outage on the system, the number of Severity 1 issues keeps coming like there's no tomorrow. And there's only 5 of us on Tier 2 which is managing this abends, errors, bugs in the system.

Is there a way on preventing this outage/connection error. Like HELLO IT IS A BIG COMPANY !!! HOW THE HELL THEY CAN'T EVEN MANAGE THEIR CONNECTION!!!!

Got 'em stickers woohoo! All the way from Philippines. Letter got wet in the rain but the stickers are in good condition. Thanks devRant!

Internet connection in Philippines is like :

My bank here in Philippines is having a glitch with there system since yesterday. the current balances of the depositors are not tally anymore and most annoying thing is they don't allow to withdraw money in their atm machines until now. I know its very difficult to fix this issue but we our need money in order to eat! 😢

Tell me how to nicely tell a client that the price for the website they made us develop is more or less 2,000 USD. I'm from the Philippines btw so that kind of amount is huge...HUUUGEEEE.

There's a workshop here in Philippines about Sprint Design & it is based from this book.

Any of you guys read this book?

Does the concepts/ideas in the book helped you in your work/personal projects?

I really admire and respect devs here in our country that are helping to build useful apps to combat covid-19 pandemic but please, if the National Government already has this kind of applications or in their pipeline (covid contact tracing, qrcode checkpoint, assistance, etc..) please do not try to hijack by creating similar app and market it. Instead of helping it creates confusion on which info to follow (ie DOH tracking) and which to use. #random

I have a dev friends from Philippines, he always said "Die laaaaahhhh"

In the Philippines, when you go out while you are coding then you get the traffic enforcers as your new friend.

My name is Kamna, I'm originally from the Philippines, but I've spent most of my life in the USA, working hard and trying to make an honest living. But a few months back, I stumbled upon this post about making money with trading and mining bots, and I thought, "Hey, why not give crypto investment a shot?"So, I reached out to this team, and they seemed legit at first. They laid out their terms, and I decided to take the plunge, investing a hefty sum of $23,500.00 with their mining bot. But here's the kicker – every time I tried to access my funds, they kept hitting me with excuses and asking for more money. Weeks passed, and I realized I'd been played for a fool. I'm not one to give up easily, but I felt pretty hopeless. That's when a coworker of mine mentioned Tech Cyber Force Recovery. At first, I was skeptical – I mean, who wouldn't be after getting burned once already? But I was desperate, so I decided to give it a shot. Let me tell you, reaching out to Tech Cyber Force Recovery was the best decision I ever made. From the get-go, they were total pros – honest, transparent, and damn good at what they do. Unlike those scammers who took my money, Tech Cyber Force Recovery laid out their terms clearly and helped me understand every step of the process. But what blew me away was their dedication to getting my money back. They didn't waste any time – they jumped right into action, using their skills and resources to track down those scammers and reclaim what was rightfully mine. With their guidance, I was able to meet their terms and get back every penny I'd lost. In just a few hours, I went from feeling like a helpless victim to being a triumphant survivor, all thanks to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. These guys are the real deal – if you ever find yourself in a situation like mine, don't hesitate to contact them. With Tech Cyber Force Recovery on your side, you can fight back against the scammers and take back control of your financial future. Trust me, you won't regret it.
