When I still studied, quite some people found me paranoid.
One of my friends started whispering 'NSA is watching' whenever he walked by me and after a while, whenever any of my friends were near me AND near a camera or whatsoever, they all whispered that same phrase.
Then I thought fuck it and just joined with whispering that. So throughout the whole day everyone would whisper that around me and I just participated 😆9 -
So I was watching a video of a Udacity Nanodegree alum. This part bothered me more than it should.

Why am I still watching a spinning circle?12 -
Trying out on my own, then googling the problems, finally watching a 2h documentary on zebra communication on youtube.2

It was fun to watch my entire high school (~1200 people) freak out when I ran "net send * Big brother is watching you..." on what I found to be an insecure computer in my high school's library. Every single computer in the building displayed the pop up message. The town's IT director even showed up to figure out what happened.
I was caught, but they were more happy it wasn't a hacker, and that I discovered that the IT firm the town hired totally botched properly implementing network security, so I was let off the hook.5 -
Started watching Silicon Valley last night and I must say damn is it addictive. S1 was complete by morning.

Watching my coworkers fix bugs is like watching people untie knots by pulling hard on both ends, in the hope that the rope breaks.1

When your MacBook only has 4GBs of ram and you're running a server, chrome, and watching for sass updates.

I'm at the Web Summit in Lisbon and I had the opportunity of watching the founder of Reddit in a lecture. I hope that next year I'll be watching the founders of DevRant. They deserve to be here.

Watching the Google I/O 2018 where they are showcasing their AI called Google Duplex, making a call for reservation.
I just realized it has better communication skill than me.

I'm watching tv with my parents. We're watching home alone and they're laughing their asses off from the movie they watched twenty times. This is one of the cringiest moments of my life. Wish I could attach an audio recording11

I found a way to make me procrastinate less on my own projects today! Stream development of it to Twitch.
Yes, there may be nobody watching most of the time; yes there may be nobody interested in a wall of text and no voice; but you just feel the need to stay on-topic when streaming, and I kinda liked it.3 -
Been watching NerdCubed for years. Finally got to meet him and Rebecca at the launch of his first book woo.

Best part of living alone... lip syncing ktv (karaoke) and dancing like no one's watching.
Oh Happy Moon Festival2 -

Nothing beats watching Chinese IP’s just beating on your server constantly. Those crafty Chinese...Now where are the Russians?🍿17

Sorry, I have to say this. I get patriotic at times.
Asian Cup 2019, we Vietnam had made it to Quarter Finals after defeating Jordani in the penalty shots.
I'm happy. It's stressful watching the shots. It's stressful watching the match but I'm happy. We're happy.
And now back to homework.2 -
Watching a film with friends. I could be coding right now.
Are Blockbuster supposed to be entertaining? My programms less predictable than the story line. I have assignments to do, yet I must adore this.
School is litterally more fun than watching that shit.5 -
Why would I waste my time watching tutorials for company rules if I can just watch it during work.7
-
Watching IT crowd AGAIN after seeing a joke my brother didn't understand. Lol. (A fire? At a sea parks?)
-
I get listening to music while you code, but I’m afraid I just can’t believe in watching a TV show while you code. You’re not coding, you’re watching a show. Or if you are coding, the level of code that’s being written is probably low enough to make it a waste of time.4

The best thing with a power outage in an apartment complex is watching everybody's wifi turn back on.

Does anyone even use their phone in landscape mode other than when watching a video or playing a game?8

me after watching snowden(2016) yesterday : "Holy shit, government is going to fuck our privacy!!"
me after watching the circle today: "Holy shit big private companies are going to fuck our privacy!!"
My office senior watching me "Holy yeah boss is going to fuck your privacy"6 -
Because when you built the UI and you watch how the end user interact with it, it’s like watching your kid approach their first love, or like watching moon rover landing except you designed and built the whole program by yourself.
It’s just magical.1 -
While watching 'theory of everything'
Mom: Even Stephen had a girlfriend.
Me: I'm a dev, not a scientist! -

No Youtube, just because I finished watching a fucking video on my phone and then I closed it, doesn't mean that I wanna resume watching it again on my fucking TV!
"Oh, the user just stopped watching a video - surely he must want to watch it on his TV now!"
Seriously, who the fuck had the brilliant idea? And how desperate do you have to be for user attention to keep suggesting users to switch to a different device every time they close a video?3 -
Watching Google's keynote, every time they say "OK Google" my idiotic phone wakes up and starts listening...1
-
Basically anything space related.
Playing KSP, watching rocket launches (sadly not live tho), watching the stars and planets in our night sky, watching the ISS fly overhead and also some very-low-level astrophotography, which is hard in a very light-polluted area, but can still produce astonishing results.
The universe is amazing, I love learning about it, seeing it and being a part of a community that is excited about the future of the human civilization.2 -
Ever wondered if there are any Devs on devRant that work at the NSA? Or other shady agencies. Or are they only indexing this network?3

I found a better solution than taping over your webcam:
Not using the shitty inbuilt screen in the laptop.
And if you need tape, use BLACK TAPE, because who wants a glow in the dark yellow rectangle above their screen...1 -
Opening your inbox in anticipation of updates on projects you're watching and instead receiving privacy policy updates

A few years ago, we were developing a media application that allows playing DRM protected content in various business rules. One was that a movie is only playable after watching an ad; the weird one is that an *ad* is playable only after watching a movie.

What do you recommend watching to get some programming entertainment and being a bit educational?14

Damnit, devrant! I started watching Mr Robot because of you, and now I'm going to be up all night binge watching.

Watching YouTube and reading the documentation.
Preferably with a practical goal (e.g. a software that does something). -
Man, the technology we have right now. I'm watching YouTube live stream from some guy from Florida Keys.3
-
https://youtube.com/watch/...
I honestly don't believe it is really true and if it is, I don't think google listened in the backround or even cortana did, but it was youtube itself.
But still, pretty creepy and maybe listening does not work like in real time, but it is working. Slowly. Hidden. Precisely.1 -
How do you guys feel about privacy after watching series like "Person of interest" or "Mr Robot" ?10
-
The ability to track all deliveries in real time using gps of the exact location is sort of creepy. Just spend about 10mins watching my dasher seemingly lost and trying to locate the restaurant...
But sorta feels like being an overlord watching his serf do his bidding...1 -
After watching Unbox therapy's review on Purism, I realized that Lew has zero experience using Gnome2

Does anyone find any value over doing paid courses online vs just watching youtube videos about the content?
I've learned just about everything in my career by reading/watching tutorials and following along. I'm confused as to why people pay for that kind of training when it's freely available. Is there real value there?10
