Sometimes you run your code,
it doesn't work, so you run it again,
it works
Sometimes you open your fridge,
no food inside, so you close and open it again,
still no food inside12 -
I just fixed a bug with the ticketname "Sometimes, There is a strange behaviour when opening the app on some devices"
Feeling heroic now8 -
Free time... sometimes I want to program, learn new stuff and work on personal projects, but sometimes I just want to be a couch potato and play hours and hours of video games...4

Don't you love when you spend the whole night trying to find the cause of an elusive bug, then you give up, you go to sleep, and the next morning after only 30s of looking at the code you finally find it and fix it?2

My client has been told by his previous developer that he should never update his wordpress.
Last update was done in 2015.6 -
How i used to toggle a boolean:
foo ? false : true;
How i decided to toggle a boolean last night:
foo = !foo
I wondered why i only just thought of that.18 -
Sometimes the best solution is the simplest
But sometimes it takes 20 hours of debugging to figure that out
😧1 -
Sometimes, just sometimes, GitHub has its heroes. Probably saved me over an hour of my life. Thank you kind stranger!!

Sometimes I write awesome code that executes well as intended with proper file structure and clean codebase and sometimes I bring shame to my family.8

When I'm on Windows, I miss Linux sometimes
When I'm on Linux, I miss Windows sometimes
When I'm on mac, I wonder why this isn't Linux instead22 -
We all have those nights sometimes (and sometimes way too often for a while)
(sorry if repost but haven't seen it yet)

Everyone talks about their hate of js but like python is honestly just as bad.
- shitty package manager,
* need to recreate python environments to keep workflows seperate as oppose to just mapping dependencies like in maven, npm, cargo, go-get
* Can't fix python version number to project I.e specify it in requirements
- dynamic typing that gets fixed with shitty duck typing too many times
- no first class functions
- limited lambda expressions
- def def def
- overly archaic error messages, rarely have I gotten a good error message and didn't have to dive into package code to figure it out
- people still use 2.7 ... Honestly I blame the difficulty of changing versions for this. It's just not trivial to even specify another python version
- inconsistent import system. When in module use . When outside don't.
- SLOW so SLOW
- BLOCKING making things concurrent has only recently got easier, but it still needs lots of work. Like it would be nice to do
runasync some_async_fcn()
Or just running asynchronous functions on the global scope will make it know to go to some default runtime. Or heck. Just let me run it like that...
- private methods aren't really private. They just hide them in intelisense but you can still override them....
I know my username is ironic :P11 -
Sometimes.. Sometimes I really want to punch a developer in the face.
Heres why. Please appreciate the few minutes i spent on editing this to look nicer xD

Sometimes you read a translation so bad that you realize it has to be from Google Translator. And sometimes you read a translation **so bad** that you realize it has to be from a person.4

one of my client is spanish speaking.. so, after two seasons of narcos I am with him like : "tranquilo...si patron".. kinda fun :D1 -
Introduction:
Privileged in this context means logged in and have a administrator-confirmed access.
Customer calls us: Why do I see prices in my shop? I should have been privileged first to see them. Looks to me that you did not make prices only get displayed when I am privileged.
Salesman: Sure we did this. May I asked whether you are logged in right now?
Customer: Of course. I am testing the process of placing an order with my test customer account.
*crickets*
Customer: I am so sorry for calling. You are right.2 -
No matter how hard I try it will always find its way.
Sometimes it's fun to debug sometimes it's not.
-
Sometimes I forget that HTML is a language it just feels like second nature sometimes and I started learning less then a year ago3
-
Oh my! This guy is such a dickhead! We have a release tomorrow and he just changed everything a coworker did in the past few weeks because it had some errors and looked not polished enough.
Now it looks quite nice.
*sigh* Sometimes I can be such an asshat. -
boss said: "we need create new version of our software. copypaste old version in new branch. so we will have dozens of versions and all of them online and working."
my question: "what if old bug will appear in all off 100500 branches? we will need fix all the versions of bug in different copies we have modified!"
boss said:"c'mon when we will get this problem then we will think about it. all the devs in world working on many versions. its easy."
your opinion?2 -
First of all sorry for the bad picture. Let's move on...
Deleting this method like:
Who the hell did this nonsense?
I just took a picture of it so I could post it here and rant about it.
Sure felt stupid after deleting it for not thinking about a protected method in the parent class that is part of an API.
So... Yeah....
I was feeling too confident in my skills lately anyway

days were nothing seems to work and you end up solving the problem of the problem of the problem of the problem... so frustrating 😥2

*Lists packages with name "weechat"

*Says package is not installed*

Life is good when you're responsible only for your task, code you write.
While i had souch a beautiful life, I could come to wrk, make coffe, magic and be happy. Sometimes it would be fast, sometimes slow. Sometimes I had to learn before implementing, sometimes I just needed to code it down. I had working hours. I had only TL and client to deal with.
If you dislike working with your collegues, imagine being responsible for their work and feel good.1 -
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.2 -
Sometimes I feel that us IT employees are very much spoiled.
# Work from anywhere in the world , sometimes even in your underwear.
# Work at anytime.
# Opportunity to learn everyday.
# Well paid.8 -
MSVC will sometimes compile our code. Sometimes it throws an error.
No changes. Just a shitty compiler.2 -
Thanks Google calendar for sometimes giving me notifications and sometimes not. Missed am appointment due that.
Anyone here with the same problem? It's really inconsistent.
Ooh PS I did setup the notifications.1 -
Sometimes there's no way to get someone to understand. Sometimes it's better to just build a cron job that will compensate for this asinine mistakes.

- music
- music
- music (sometimes I ask myself if these Spotify Artist-Radios have an endpoint.🤔)

The relationship between me and JavaScript is as same as my toxic EX.
Sometimes I get emotional sometimes I just wanna beat the shit outta JS.1 -
My job isn't stressful all the time. Sometimes I'm in meetings and I'm just bored. And sometimes I have a coke to drink. That's pretty nice.
But right now my app is breaking and I don't know why. It either corrupts the heap sometimes or breaks the execution engine sometimes or attempts to write pointers I don't control into protected memory sometimes. Can't reliably reproduce them. And every time I try to debug one it causes the other.
But I do have a Coke. -
This is not a rant. Not really. It's more expressing my own insecurity with a certain topic, which somehow upsets me sometimes (the insecurity, not the topic though).
I have nearly no knowledge about security/privacy stuff. I mean, yeah, I know how to choose secure passwords and don't make stupid DAU mistakes. The very basics you would expect someone to have after a CS bachelor's degree.
But other than that... Nothing. And I would like to get a bit into that stuff, but I have no clue where to start. First getting my head wrapped around low-level stuff like network layers? Or something completely else.
This topic is so intimidating to me as it seems huge, I have no idea where to start, and I feel that if you don't have "full" knowledge, you are going to make mistakes which you might not even notice.
I sometimes get really scared about having an account hijacked or similar. Also in our job it seems to become more and more of a topic we should know about.
Anybody got any advice?
I am looking for a way to improve my knowledge in security in general for professional reasons and my knowledge about privacy for private reasons.
It's just, every time I start reading something related it seems that I am lacking some other knowledge etc...10 -
Someone knows how to find key length of vigenere ciphertext effectively? I wrote a code for coincidence method to find key length. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Or i fucked up while implementing it?3 -
I find it hilarious that sometimes when i create bug in our app nobody finds out. Even pretty significant bugs. Sometimes i wonder how is it possible. 😅4
-
Sometimes, I feel like this profession is a piece of shit. There's more to life than all these stresses. There's gotta be a better way to make more money, I just need more perseverance.1
-
Sometimes i distance myself from extreme coding to develop intrest again in the work.
What are your thoughts do you guys lose interest sometimes?2 -
Sometimes I feel like I can achieve everything in this very moment, sometimes, I'm like "meh! why do I exist? why I'm working that hard." 🥴1
-
Sometimes I am so lazy bored, that I am copy pasting letters with my mouse so I can type, instead of using my second hand.
-
is github becoming a giant piece of shit for anyone else? its like gambling every time i make a push. sometimes it finishes, sometimes it decides to hang and do nothing.1
-
Sometimes, just sometimes, I need to stop programming until nearly 10pm. It cannot be healthy for the body.
-
I sometimes feel like we are the godhead and then sometimes feel like we are at the bottom of the 21st century corporate ladder food chain.

Fuuuuuuuck!!
I hate it when your code work sometimes but sometimes not and you don't even change anything!!
Fuck you, Discord rich presence! Why don't you love me??? -
Wherever make it easier for me to enter the zone. Sometimes a loud coffee shop will do when I felt like it. Sometimes at home when everything is so quiet. It depends.

What is challenging of becoming freelance programmer, is that not only have to deal with stupid requirements from the client, and attitude of certain client. We also need to face the challenges of other freelancer defaming you , bombard you with a bunch of negativity.
So here's the story, there is this guy knowing that I give the service for creating mobile app for 50USD and client happy with the price. While he get NONE of the business as the price is 80USD. -
Best collegue is quitting. Boss man speaks with a tremble in his voice. Good. You should be worried.

- Running a release build on my phone (forgot to change variant)
- Spent 5 minutes figuring out why my changes with the logs weren't working.
🤦♂️1 -
Sometimes I think the relational model is a disservice to humanity.
Sometimes I love it.
But mostly I hate it.1 -
Expo works like shit. Sometimes it reloads on code changes, sometimes it doesn't. It can't wait for me to accept USB debugging on my virtual android device so I need to hit connect button twice. I just got "Error: null". Sometimes it downloads the package to 100% then does nothing. Sometimes it doesn't even attempt to unless I forcefully kill it and start again. Fuck this shit.

We use a bamboo cutting board in the kitchen. Sometimes it's bent a little through the middle and sometimes it's straight. I still don't know if it's a bug or feature.
