To anyone that claims to be a masochist

Now i can enter in peace! Finally a good number

I do not understand the people that say that they hate C-like languages, because of the ; and {} they have, that are "confusing".
Like almost every modern IDE/editor pinpoints EXACTLY where you forgot something...

What if some day devrant starts getting bigger and has a lot of employees? What happens if they start ranting too?

A pretty open source desktop e-mail client finally!

All is well until one of the interviewers starts dropping questions like:
- Where do you see yourself in x years
- What gets you out of bed every day
etc.

that give you some nice mid interview existential dread.

Today I think I experienced my biggest burnout ever, combined with a huge headache. That is what you get for working at a fast growing startup.

Stay healthy and remember to take it easy guys and girls

First day at my new job tomorrow and I cannot get any sleep.. Why am I always like that? :/

I think the worst thing about android programming and deploying directly to a device, is that you can procrastinate in both the pc and the mobile...

*Epic music cues* LETS DO IT!

Question for devs who use Intellij IDEA.

How often do you use livetemplates?

I am a new android dev with ADHD and just discovered live templates. They make my life much easier, for example I have shortcuts for generating recyclerview adapter/viewholder/implementation boilerplate code.

In that way I am able to focus on implementation, and do my coding like building blocks, rather than memorizing every detail of implementation. Also I don't need to go to stackoverflow and copypaste basic things multiple times. Even for example during live coding interview having livetemplates seems awesome, copypasting from stackoverflow would be shameful (I think). Using my own custom shortcuts for livetemplates seems the best way for how my brain functions (I suck at memorizing tiny details, but I remember general idea/flow of a pattern and I would prefer memorizing what to use and when to use, instead of all small details of implementation).

Is getting to dependent on livetemplates a good practice to get used to? Do other developers frown upon a dev who has dozens of livetemplates and relies on them instead of writing all code from memory by hand?

That feeling when you compiled a large piece of code and it works, but then you make a tiny tiny change in the execution progress and you uncover that it is broken in a dark and twisted way.... Uhh its perfect..
Its so good... IT MAKES ME WANNA *#%#@£...

Honestly thinking really seriously about deleting facebook, as it occupies a good portion of my day with its scrolling up and down.. However I am bit scared that I am going to miss out on like friend's stuff (or people that I know a bit closer), news and all that.. Has anyone done it and can provide with his/her experience on how to tackle this?

Is there an acceptable way to deal with API secrets in an Android app that can cure the anxiety that is slowly taking over me during the past few hours that I am researching about it? Thnx.

p.s. I am not sure how people that work in security can go on with their lives and not have suicidal tendencies

The moment when you scratch your mousepad or take off your keyboard keys, and you find out how horrible your living conditions are...

Non-rant rant here..

Anyone living in Europe that got his/her devrant stickers? If so can you tell me about how much time approximately it took to ship, so I can calculate, as i need to be at another place at about a month..

Keep ranting!

I have recently learned to use data binding with recyclerView in android. I need to make some network calls on the click of a button at the recyclerView, and based on response I need to update my UI. All my code for the view is in my ViewHolder. Bt all the code for my network calls are in repository which is accessed by my viewModel. how can I make the network calls from the viewHolder?
