I just fucking had to.
I'm sorry.

I just fell in love with PCBs and all kinds of circuit boards for one sole reason.

Why. Why in the name of fucking god is this a thing!?.
Why a fucking huge ass parcel for like, 2 cm³ of content.
Fucking hell just why.
Explain.

A toast to devRant.
The one community somewhat keeping me alive.

So, I've been following a tutorial and explanatory series on YouTube about procedural terrain generation.

I dare saying it's going quite well!

Students in my CS class be like: "This sucks"
Me: "y tho?"
Them: "Idk man, we thought we'd learn cool hacking stuff here instead of java and shit"

CESSPOOL OF FUCKING DEGENERATES CAN YOU NOT READ

Manual Garbage cleaner in java.

Got myself this beauty today.
Wonder what I'll use it for..

Today I bought a leek and hunted people with it.

Haha Big funny

Fucking airstrike alert this morning in my federal state.
Yote me out of bed yelling "The russians are coming!"
Turns out it was planned but what the fuck, the closest siren is like 100 metres from my window.

Brought the funny

God I'm fucking done for today.

We just finished a "Climate-conference-simulation" in school.

Basically ~90 students split into 6 groups representing a delegation of a country or a group of countries.

EU,
USA,
India,
China,
Other developing countries,
Other industrial countries

The target of our efforts was the reduction of global warming from ~4 C° by 2100 to around 2 C°.

My group (USA) elected me to speak and represent (I did kind of mimic the American stereotype of being egoistic and self centered, no offence intended)

As all the other nations and groups were planning great schemes, my group simply continued to put, well, basically rocks in their path by not playing along cause aforementioned stereotype.

It's the working phase after the second presentation of results, I'm sitting there with parts of the Chinese and EU delegation and suddenly two of my friends, in different groups, put my hood over my head, drag/carry me out of the assembly hall, toss me out and leave me there.

Was funny and all, but damn, it's fucking exhausting to stand in front of around 100 people (including teachers and stuff) and completely not play along with the other group's opinions and plans.

But hey, I've been congratulated a lot of times cause I've perfectly stayed in my role.

Yes it was weird

It pisses me off that germany has no proper mobile reception fucking anywhere near rural areas.
And don't get me started on railway lines.

Also Telekom is just garbage.
We pay full price and get less than half of the data we're paying for.

Fucking hell rant over.

Look, I don't know why, but after sitting around doing nothing, I think he wants to kill me.

I don't believe in your fake news, go make me a website.

Thanks but what the fuck.

Try to pick up a relationship which I've dropped out of stupidity again.

So a friend came up with this funny idea today to make a discord bot which translates input to a custom morse alphabet consisting of E's.

Instead of .- ..- ...---...
We got eE eeE eeeEEEeee
It's beautiful.

Knowing that ending it is not an option

Say hello to <name to be determined>.
Apparently it's tradition to ask for naming suggestions so let's hear em.

Recently applied at a local company. Webform, "enter some details and we'll get back to you"-like.

Entered my details, hit submit, lo and behold "Error 503 - something went wrong on our end".

I was just baffled. It's a well-established IT company and they can't even get their application form to work?

So I'm sitting there in the debugger console, monitoring network stuff to see if anything is weird. I obviously hit submit some several more times during that.

Eventually I give up.

In the night my phone wakes me up with a shitton of "we've received your application and will review it..." emails.

Yeah they didn't get back to me.

So, I'm living in a completely computer illiterate family and I was called to help my father with something on a Laptop where he wanted to stream his favorite Soccer-Club.

So I walk up to him, ask what's wrong, and he says (roughly translated from German) "That thing doesn't work!"

And I'm just like ((Wat u mean))
So I ask him to explain the problem in detail.
Apparently his streaming service wasn't loading his stream.

Well damn I say, try searching for the problem on Google and find a solution.
((But no no no imma just call my son for everything that's freaking wrong with tech, he sure knows what to do))

As I'm not that experienced with Webservices as of yet, I had no idea what to do.

He was fucking furious!

"You always act like you know everything about tech and programs and stuff and can't even help me with fixing this Stream-Thing?!"

I responded simply by saying "It's not my area of work!"

Seems like he didn't know the difference between TECH-JESUS and hobbyist software engineer.

So I stand there and he just goes on one of these typical boomer tech illiterate rants, of which I'm sure you can imagine enough being on this platform.

tl;Dr; It pisses me of big time how people are not even trying to understand technology, nor attempting to help themselves by eG. Googling some simple problem, but rather just ask around and then being pissed off if the asked person just doesn't know the answer or can't help!

So we've been on our Christmas holidays/vacation and decided to spend New year's eve at my place barbecuing.

Yes needless to say that we got somewhat intoxicated, had steak etc and then fucking fell asleep on the floor outside.
In -3 C°.
Woke up like 20 minutes later according to my friends.
Decided to continue barbecuing but since the fire turned into half dead embers I decided to fucking chop up some wooden planks laying around.

Short recap.
New year's Eve.
Barbecuing.
Intoxication.
Fell asleep.
Woke up.
Chopped up planks in the dead of night.

Continued barbecuing afterwards.
Fire ablaze again, roasted the remainder of the meat and since it was too boring for me I decided to pour fucking Korn, (German alcohol) over the flames.
Needless to say my arm hairs burnt off.

Friend comes out, sees me, fucking dies of laughter.

All promised to stfu about it.

Anyway the flamed steak and stuff were still delicious.

Hey, hey, if THE SJWs made GitHub rename it's 'master', then what's gonna happen to all the embedded systems people?
I mean, MISO, MOSI?

You'd think Elon Musk would've brought out genetically engineered Catgirls by now...

Little me sees Monitor.
Monitor depicts Things.

"Cool! But why?"

That's basically it.

Can I just ask how the fuck one thing relates to the other!?

Sitting at work listening to music, doing absolutely fuck all right now because I ain't got no tickets! All the mfers need to answer me before I can work on their stuff.

Sounds great, no?

It's not. It's hell being unable to do work for me. I need to busy myself with doing random shit so I don't go insane.

Mhh, coffee...

Oh, by the way, Sir Jav'alot is still around too.

*drunken rambling*

Well, I was Always into Computers and Games and stuff and at some point, I started wondering: "why does Computer Go brrr when I Hit this Button?".

It was WinAPI C++ and I was amazed by the tons of work the programmers must have put into all this.

13 year old me was Like: "I can make a Game, cant be too hard."

It was hard.
Turns out I grabbed a Unity Version and tried Things, followed a tutorial and Made a funny jet Fighter Game (which I sadly lost).

Then an article got me into checking out Linux based systems and pentesting.
*Promptly Burns persistent Kali Live to USB Stick"
"Wow zhis koohl".
Had Lots of fun with Metasploit.

Years pass and I wrap my head around Javascript, Node, HTML and CSS, I tried making a Website, worked Out to some extent.

More years pass, we annoy our teacher so long until he opens up an arduino course at school.
He does.

We built weather stations with an ESP32 and C++ via Arduino Software, literally build 3 quadrocopter drones with remote Control and RGB lighting.
Then, Cherry on the top of everything, we win the drone flying Contest everyone gets some nice stuff.

A couple weeks later my class teacher requests me and two of my friends to come along on one of their annual teacher meetings where there are a bunch of teachers from other schools and where they discuss new technology and stuff.

We are allowed to present 3D printing, some of our past programming and some of the tech we've built.

Teachers were amazed, I had huge amounts of fun answering their questions and explaining stuff to them.

Finally done with Realschulabschluss (Middle-grade-graduation) and High school Starts.
It's great, we finally have actual CS lessons, we lesen Java now.
It's fuckton of fun and I ace all of it.
Probably the best grades I ever had in any class.

Then, in my free time, I started writing some simple programs, firstvI extended our crappy Greenfoot Marsrover Project and gave it procedural Landscape Generation (sort of), added a Power system, reactors, Iron and uranium or, refineries, all kinds of cool stuff.

After teaching myself more Java, I start making some actual projects such as "Ranchu's bag of useful and not so useful stuff", namely my OnyxLib library on my GitHub.

More time passes, more Projects are finished, I get addicted to coding, literally.
My days were literally Eat, Code, sleep, repeat.

After breaking that unhealthy cycle I fixed it with Long Breaks and Others activities in between.

In conclusion I Always wanted to know what goes on beneath the beautiful front end of the computer, found out, and it was the most amazing thing ever.
I always had constant fun while coding (except for when you don't have fun) and really enjoyed it at most times.
I Just really love it.

About a year back now I noticed that I was really quite good at what I was doing and I wanted to continue learning and using my programming.
That's when I knew that shit was made for me.

...fuck that's a long read.

We used to write infinite loops with "start cmd.exe" instructions in windows batch, converted it to a executable, gave it an epic vector icon and tried to sell it to 5th graders on CD as "an epic virus that will make your teachers go insane".

And some of it actually got sold.

My colleague printed a Helldivers helmet for Sir Jav'alot!

School's windows installations had the UAC set to lowest.
Anyone could install malware or fiddle with important settings.

Oh by the way, the same school who's gData found it funny to go through my USB drive and delete all executables and all my code because it was "possibly malicious".

Started installing random crap and messing with people in retaliation.
Was fun.
Until I got caught.
Good thing I compiled a list of security flaws earlier on.

From that day on, everytime I messed up, I sold them two security vulnerabilites to let me off the hook.
These included access to all kinds of drives in the windows network, accessing other PCs desktop, literally uninstalling random printers from the network etc..

Fun time.

A few days ago, one could have said that C++ is giving me PTSD.
Now, I've come to adore, cherish and love it for it's simplicity.

It feels so much better than Java.
No shit on java, it's good in what it does but damn boi C++ can do like, fucking everything.

Probably still gonna gib me PTSD in a week or so but fuck it.

Basically all those graphical applications for developing apps and programs.
Take fucking Thunkable for example.
Or the unholy abomination that is scratch.

Contradictory to the education system, I believe that it absolutely does not prepare students for programming.

Like "ummm puzzle goes there uuhh that goes there ajdjsudheirnrifksmci"

Have I ever mentioned how much TypeScript compensates for JavaScript's Lack of being statically typed?
It's. So. Much. Better.

Fixed a bug in my emulator that was completely breaking almost every program I ran on it.

Turns out the virtual ALU set its arithmetic flags (zf, nf) even when a non-arithmetic operation was run.

!rant
I've lost all fucking motivation to do anything at the moment.
Fuck not even gaming is much fun anymore.
Also amazing that I have so little time on Mondays that I can't even eat properly.
Literally living on caffeine, a spoonful of, like, porridge and water on Mondays.

And of course the nice bistro is closed on Mondays.
Then there is that motherfucker of person at school that just randomly starts sharing weird ass details with you and promptly started to break out in tears when she failed maths today.

Like fucking hell, then for some reason the same person fucks up everything in her volleyball group by literally doing nothing and complains when she gets hit by a fucking volleyball, like, she doesn't even attempt to dodge it catch it.

So much for that fuckery.

Then there's these little brats that just completely play asshole and are being jackasses to everyone including upperclassmen and teachers.
Grab em by the throat and fucking put them in a toilet.
Literally the reason why our school is generally known as the 'Drecksloch', literally dirt hole.

The fucking volume is driving me batshit insane in school to the point where I just start yelling at people.
Fucking kids, it literally doesn't cost you shit to just shut the fuck up.

Okay, vent over.
Sorry for that.

So, today I tried using my C/++ Code in Java using native jvm stuff.
It's cancer to make it work but damn it's cool.

!dev, !rant
Flew to Berlin for the weekend. Kinda disappointed xD
Trash everywhere, water costs more then my kidney, ugly communist blocks and buildings everywhere(I mean, yeah, sure: GDR, but like what, did nobody build anything since then? lol), almost nothing to eat .-. (I don't think we encountered even a single "german food" place walking around Berlin)

On the flip side, roads are awesome, no construction everywhere that blocks half the roads, no cracks everywhere and the asphalt doesn't make you vibrate when you ride over it. People were nice and polite, I didn't get the overwhelming urge in stores/stalls to just place everything back on the shelves and fuck off just from talking to a cashier/clerk/worker. Food, drinks, and services were cheap as fuck(Except for water, which I'm still coping seething and malding over, I thought the "Beer cheaper than water" was a joke, or an idiom, not fucking reality).

Also got to see @Ranchonyx IRL <3
So that was the highlight of the vacation.

So, I just "fixed" my remote.
It turned into a DIWHY.

Murphy's law is completely true.

Deployed my own software the very first time on a customer system on monday.

Today I'm at a job college class when my boss calls me: "...Hey yeah (unrelated) (yadda yadda) the software does not function for anyone").

I fucking knew it.
We don't have a proper project planning nor a real project manager/lead, we don't do QA, and now it's gone to shit.

I did my own testing extensively on monday & Tuesday, everything looked alright and worked like a charm.

I'm looking forward to the weekend already...

Fucking really? This image has been memed several times already.

It's 14:59 and my grandmother has just called me in for tech support I guess.
I'm sitting here in fucking slouch clothes with a cup of coffee and, for some reason, sunglasses?
What a strange morning.

daily random...

@Ranchonyx

I literally can't. Life would get too boring not learning new stuff.

It's java.

The ""operating system"" of questionable quality I hacked together from scratch and alcohol

I didn't just yet, although I probably found my kink while programming.
Turns out I'm masochistic as I enjoy suffering induced by programming stuff.

short one.

So my CS course is full of people who can't write a fucking for loop (I shit you not) after more than half a year.
And then there's those that don't know what a return type is.

So I asked them once, after they stated that the course sucks, why they even chose it in the first place.
Freely translated it would be:

"I dunno, I thought we'd be doing cool hacker stuff in here..."

At that point I just wanted to jump out of the window.

So I'm on vacation in the Harzgebirge, it's evening and I want to watch something on Crunchyroll.

aEuGh We BlOcKeD yOuR ASN.

Yea turns out they've got the hotel WiFi on a blacklist.
Oh sorry, no-no-list.

So I've got my first sort of proper gig. I'm tasked with writing...

A goddamn minecraft plugin in java.
Well, it's actually rather fun strangely enough. My ideas of payment were not declined but rather accepted, the other devs are nice and everything is going well for now.

Also: Do expect a mental breakdown post next week or so

Continuing after my last post:

IT WORKS IT FUCKING WORKS INTERRUPTS WORK

I tried developing an API based on some other ones that would query my school's timetables faster than our app.
It worked.
I'm proud now.

Fucking living.

Lockdown diary:
I have now become addicted to Earl Grey.

Lack of concentration.

I swear to God it's people like this that just get on my nerves
"Oh look at my fucky javascript code"
"Let's tag it as JAVA NOT JAVASCRIPT BECAUSE IM AN UTTER IDIOT"
It appears that proper tagging is not just a devRant issue.

It pisses me off that I have nothing to rant about.
I miss routine.

Sir Jav'alot is just staring at me.

Coding night with @Keanu
Javascript debugging sucks ass

console.log("yeet") > debugger;

I try not to be toxic on Social Networks (except dR) but man, some of the shit people post..

It's uh, my hobby I guess.
And wtf is vacation?

When you're bored and decide to make a leftover hotpot.

Looks like bootlegged ripoff sukiyaki without everything.

Me yesterday evening:

"Fuck java, fuck JVM, fuck everything about it, shit doesn't work for some reason, no runtime errors, no compiler errors, no syntax errors, nothing, *turns off computer*".

Me today morning(coffee = false), after comparing the documented example code provided by the API with one someone else made, I've noticed that the one provided by the API was messed up and couldn't work.

"Lemme change that one value in the properties...okay here we go"
Shit works out perfectly.

FUCK FALSELY DOCUMENTED CODE

FUCK DOCUMENTATIONS IN GENERAL

Happy new year!

I'm stranded with two thirds of a CPU brand string.
Fuck

Kool I reached another number

Look at that windows is forcing it's fucking update upon us again

Happy new year

Probably had my worst half-week ever this week.

Customer's CRM system, the read and edit masks just...stopped existing on last week friday. CRM fell back on some default masks for the dataset. No way to create new masks directly without putting the whole system upside down.
We couldn't do anything anyway because they reported the issue literally as we all were about to leave for weekend and our boss was like "Ah nah, well do it next week."
Our brains were already fried anyway...
I mail the reporter that we've registered their issue, will investigate and report back ASAP once we've got news.

Monday rolls around, I'm whacking my head against their system trying to figure the fuck out, what went wrong and how to solve it, I come up empty; Not that terrible since the masks only stopped existing in the webclient version of the system and they can still use the windows client, so they can still work.

Tuesday rolls around, I'm at an on site training for an ERP system with my boss at a remote company. Get an email in midst of the training, I was doing protocol.
Guy from the afflicted company goes and tells me that the issue has somehow spread to his colleague and him...IN THE WINDOWS CLIENT.

I'm fucking flabbergasted, so to speak, since the masks for the windows client and the web client are totally isolated from one another.
After we're back at our company, I investigate, less efficiently this time because my brain got fried at the training. I come up empty again.

NOW TODAY: Discuss further proceedings with my boss, he's not pissed at me or anything, just to say, but we're both worried, obviously.

Then at 10:20, a guy from the afflicted company mails me in an annoyed tone that the masks are still broken.

11:00, we figure out a workaround so the windows client users can at least work again, albeit limited.

11:10, I mail the guy, telling him that although we're still not able to fully work everything out and are still investigating, we've made a workaround so they can at least work again.

11:20, the guy mails me in a pissed tone around the lines of "This is very very important and must be fixed ASAP or else we'll not be able to work at all [...]"
And I think like "Dude I literally just told you like 8 minutes ago that there's are workaround so you'll be able to at least work again..."

Forward the mail to boss, we meet up quickly to discuss how in God's name we can deescalate this mfer.

11:31, the guy mails me again, all apologetically this time "Stop! All is good, I just now fully read you mail, thanks for implementing the workaround, nothing will come to a standstill [...]"

BRUH CAN YOU NOT FUCKING READ BEFORE ESCALATING SHIT

Fuck customers. Dumb fucking cretins unable to fucking read.

The issue is still unresolved. Support of the CRM software lets us sit on our collective asses and wait.

There is no such thing as stable software, it's a myth.

Every corporate software is like an ever-decaying semi-corpse of a brain dead patient slowly getting worse and worse but not fucking dying.

Rant over.

As it's online at the moment.

Well it's time to suffer

I get frustrated and pull the USB cable out of it.
Mfw it starts spitting out requests to my server with no end in sight.

Mfw the requests all just repeat.
Mfw the docs tell me to acknowledge a request I have to respond with a content type of
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
How.

Not possible.
Mfw I decide to dissect a request to check it's accept header.

Mfw it says text/plain.
Great, no idea in what format the thing expects it.

Try writing out query string plainly.

It fucking works.

Why can't people just learn to write proper documentation.

Damn boi c sure is a headache.
I honestly love it though.

Turns out we doing SQL in CS now.
Not gonna lie it's...surprisingly easy(?).

Nah jokes aside, reworking my entire code from scratch based on what I drew up on a board.

Sometimes visualisation of processes and control flow can really help you write better code.

So regarding the current "controversy" about shitposting and getting downvoted as a result.

You lot do realize that you're on the fucking internet right?
Beefing it out in the comments won't help the issue at hand and your opinions do not matter to your "opponent".

Just fucking stop nobody gives a flying fuck.
I mean I technically do as per I'm ranting about this but my god Just cease.

Was at a Saturn (tech store) a while ago, just in the area and browsing a bit, and then this: (see image, thanks C0D4)

This sort of shit happens all the time around here.

There was also my local Karlchens Backstube (bakery and café) where the drive-thru display had a green screen of death; I don't know why they used an insider build of windows. Or windows in general for a fucking DISPLAY SIGN. A FUCKING DISPLAY SIGN WITH JUST A STATIC IMAGE DISPLAYED.

I really would like to post something deep here to harvest internet points, but instead I'll give you following quote.

"I have no fucking clue" -Me, 09/11/2021 18:19PM EST.

Well it all started in grade six I believe and it's all downhill from there.

I'm pretty sure I've said this before but I'm attempting to transition parts of my Patchwork OS to a new one that supports GNU GRUB / Multiboot.

I think I am finally going insane.

After doing more and more c/c++ I've started exhibiting traits of Jeho... Cplusplus' witness..

What is it that causes it to be so hard for me to apologize to someone I've wronged.

I've been working on my term paper and writing an SDL-OpenGL program for it. I wanted to implement GLSL shaders. Took me only 6 hours and three cocktails.
And after the ordeal I ended up with this unholy flickering mess which just hurts to look at.
It's frustrating, doing all this shit for something that doesn't even work properly.
Fuck this

Unity just mailed me:
H E Y U W A N T S U M U N I T E V I D E O S ?
I should really unsubscribe from the mailing list.

Feeling when you sit at your computer for like 8 hours a day straight trying to solve the same problem for 3 days now.
Want to fucking shoot myself

OpenCV based face / eye recognition implemented in a discord bot.

So, I've seen a github repo whose owner puts all of his code in an unformatted README.md file, no further files. I'm not sure if I should be concerned for them or scared.

So, in Germany apprentices at companies need to file a "Berichtsheft".
It's a thing where you have to file, for each day that is, what you did at work or in job college and how long you did it.

Basically every company keeps records of their employees activities in their CRM or other management system and all schools use services for keeping timetables that include lesson duration and activity.

So why the fuck do we apprentices have to write that shit ourselves when we could literally just acces the databases and SELECT THE SHIT FROM FILED_ACTIVITIES, I thought.

So I'm writing scripts to acces our CRM database and a puppeteer script now that scrapes the Untis (online timetable service for schools) timetables to extract everything, group it by date and format it nicely as CSV.

I'm sick of this: Digital system & Digital system = write it yourself bullshit.

Once I'm done I'll make a github repo for the Untis scraper.

Also, I'll be making the tools usable for the other apprentices at my company to spare them the suffering.

Turns out writing shaders for Minecraft is a fucking pain the ass my God.

Hack the Box is fun.

Been sitting in this Chair for Well over 5 hours now trying to setup virtualization on this Debian Server.

So, either I'm crazy or devRant has a problem..

Brought the unfunny

Can't fully remember. But I believe windows batch files.
I just didn't wanna sort/move my files by myself anymore and it all went downhill from there.

Going live was today, everything went well.... Too well.

Also, snacks.
Also, coding in bed.

Furthermore, monitor setup is better.

Vodka or Whiskey

Listen, this has no context, but @athlon fucking broke me.

12 Hour bus drive while everyone else was partying and having a good time.
Well I drank some Jägermeister but so much for party.

My CS Teacher's child was apparently born today, I'm gonna suggest X-AE-A12.

Student bars are some good shit

Did my duties

God help us, he has multiplied!

When my shitty c# code actually fucking worked.

Even changing like, the most simplistic things with a mod for a game is an accomplishment.

Hallelujah semi-drunk again.
Had schnitzel with potatoes, bacon and sauce.
Jägermeister of course, with some imported holiness of Almdudler.
Good Friday indeed.

Just got told that there will be a 5KM run in march by my teacher.
I will either break my foot a day before or simply fucking refuse.

I'm ill enough already.

I met a guy on another friend's birthday (lan)party.
We started randomly coding bullcrap. Fun times.

Petition to implement a 2FA upon registration to deter bots and spam accounts.

I realized how much I suck at maths.
But seriously now, I started understanding the way things work, what makes them 'tick'.
It feels good to look at a random huge advert screen and immediately conjure up a pseudocode how I imagine the developers must have done it.

!useful
!!shitpost

I'm just gonna leave this here...

Have I ever mentioned my undying love of NullPointerException?
I love those so fucking much I would give up my non existent social life for it.
This is a cry for help please help

When writing my term paper.
Did some caffeine and teeine fueled rage C++ coding.
Codes over the day and night.
On a sunday until moday morning at 5.
Started way to late.
Fucked it up.

So today in class, we had the task of presenting poems, for whatever godforsaken reason.

I finished mine last minute and guess who's been the lucky student who had to read theirs.

It then included things such as, roughly translated from german.

Hey actually I could use the translate bot for this but can't be bothered.

"Roses are red, violets are blue, I can't rhyme and neither can you"
"Roses are dead, violets are dead, democracy is dead"
"Roses are red, violets are red, everything is red, communism"
"Roses are red, violets are red, blood is red, god is dead"

Then I finished up with a Nietzsche quote "God is dead, god remains dead and we have killed him. How shall we comfort ourselves yadda yadda"

Actually didn't get fucked over by the teach.
Course and teach quite liked it apparently, can someone explain to me why that is?

Cause I genuinely do not understand what could be likable about such 0815 garbage that's just memes?

It appears I've discovered myself quite talented at solving problems.
And also, that I'm surrounded by idiots, who don't know what an integer is.
Also, that im an idiot.

Did the MIT seriously just take down one of their own huge tiny image datasets for machine learning because of the same problem as GitHub's Master branch?

Playing Galagon/Galaga on my dad's slow-ass toshiba company laptop. I still sometimes boot it just to play again

So I've finally implemented face detection in my discord bot.

@Wisecrack regarding the openCV training, I'm still taking positive and negative samples, so it'll be another while.

Also, why is post @ing not a thing

Didn't find a proper API to send chat messages to an MSTeams channel.
Didn't want to rely on third party tools.

Creates webhook endpoint, promptly creates my own API using JSON cards and requests to said endpoint.
Didn't know how why it worked but it did.

JUST HOW ZHE FUCK ARE YOU EVEN CONNECTED.

PC POWER OFF

Not just dev goals.

-Stable relationship with [Redacted]
-Finish my projects
-Get new SSD
-Finally get paid for the DLR project
-Not fucking up my exams
-Finish my blacksmithing idea/project
-Play a good game that's not Destiny2

So recently I've been getting a bit tired of my countrie's slow and outdated-ass politics combined with the old-ass leadership.
I make an effort to come over as a liberal in public when I'm under people but sometimes..sometimes it's getting a bit hard.

It depends, really. Sometimes it's a spontaneous urge, sometimes it's me drinking and coding whilst doing so.
Sometimes it's a lot of coffee as mentioned in another post commenting on this week's topic.

Regarding the drinking: for some reason my code works and I write more in less time.
Un-fucking-believeable.

So about nine days ago I've stopped recieving @-notifs without having anything disabled. Apparently other users have similar issues.
What's wrong?

The existential dread.

My teacher hammering proper tabs and spacing into me.

I doubt it's really useful.

For Java and Kotlin I use IntelliJ, for like config files and crap VsCode.

For C-ish languages Visual Studio Community 2019.

I just had a Rumpsteak.
Tasted like dry, raw meat with some sawdust on it.
Hell if I printed out my code and ate the paper it'd been better than that.

I'll transform Co-worker into Co-student.

Personality wise most are like a brick, or a shoebox.

Most memorable would be the radical feminist bitch.

Just been on a like 4 hour no pause coding session (which is fairly long on my terms) trying out random stuff in Java.

Hello mostly human community.
Are there any recommended Haarcascade models for OpenCV for face detection apart from the ones shipped with it?

Lots of electrical scrap and a power supply and so on.

School Just got Ms Teams for all students. Good and bad experiences?

Yo Vanessa? I like, appreciate your interest but can you not let your bots run wild?
On a more serious note: This has happened about 10 times already.

So, I've been working on a new project, it's basically a java library/package/jar with a lotta nice gadgets and stuff in.

The current functionality is limited, but will expand more as time goes on.

Right now it's able to:
apply ARGB filters to images (changing ARGB values), save objects in files on disk(Serializer/Deserializer), send emails with working create/load/unload configuration-system which saves a user-config to a file, loads and works with it, but the most coolest thing...

random char generation MY GOOOODDD

yea just wanted to post this cuz im rly proud

On the kernel/os project I'm working on with @SoldierOfCode.
It's a side project but I *need* to refactor the normal text based functions to vga graphics compatibility.

If a team of two counts, did some hackthebox challenges, wrote some funny scripts, found a way to using nodejs as an attack vector.
Fun

Writing an email client in java.
Yes I consider it """fun""".

Sadism

Never felt like a dev hero, just a jukebox hero.

Not going insane due to lack of documentation.
In retrospect it may have been that I was still learning to properly apply and read docs so eh.

I will literally pull out you soul, grill it, and then put it back into you just to kill you, roll you up in nice mustard, pickles, bacon, pepper and salt and then roll you over with beef so I can properly make a roast and then, when you're ded, I will take your soul again to just torture it for all eternity.

....didn't have my coffee yet, guten morgen

Currently working on a Stardew Valley mod.

I'm injecting a custom map as a .tbin file and loading it.

Works perfectly fine.
Can edit it ingame, plant crops there and shit but when I save and reset the game.

Bam changes gone.

Apparently I gotta write an extra method for saving the current map, in the game back into the base map which exists as a file in my mod's folder.

AND GUESS WHAT.

NO IDEA HOW TO FUCKING DO THAT.

SMAPI IS SO HORRIBLY DOCUMENTED FUCK IT

And people still wonder why I'm fucking worried for my future...

Ranchonyx built a huge monument of himself in the city he lived in, with him as a member of the Team Rocket

I'M SICK OF YOUR FUCKING HURR DURR TRIPLE FAULT HURR DURR PAGE FAULT THANKE QEMU FOR NOT EVEN BOTHERING TO TELL ME WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENS AND FUCK YOU GDB FOR NOT WORKING

Im looking to check out a new language, any recommendations?
P.S: I'm sick of OOP.

So I'm currently sitting at the BCN airport waiting for my flight and I just have to tell you about this.

In one of the fortresses in Barcelona there's one of these cursed yellow German stickers stating: "Nice here, but have you been to Baden-Württemberg?".

These things are a menace to the world. You find them at every major thingamabob in Europe and I even found some in Canada.

Fucking insanity.

Good night Floyd

I'm starting to believe that I need a longer break from drinking.
Admittedly though, this is what I always say after a party weekend.
Fuuuuck me.

ERM Diagrams.
