Ahh tough decision 🤔😂

Just come across this little gem on an 8 year old website :(

One day, someone at Google decided that what their search engine was really missing was a dice rolling tool, complete with text that says 'Rolling...'

Stocks are up 600% since then.

This made me laugh

if I had a coder girlfriend, and we pair programmed... 😍

Java running on my machine.

And then the PEN-Tester said... "MySQL configured to allow connections from 127.0.0.1. Recommend configuration change to not allow remote connections." hahahaha!

This is an example if stupid documentation.

//Just like magic
try {
....

WTF! THIS IS PROGRAMMING, NO FUCKING MAGIC OR MIRACLES HAPPENS.

Chuck Norris doesn’t use web standards as the web will conform to him.

Pac-Man's life took a wrong turn

Today our manager agreed on buying a second hand server for the development team to play around with and run personal experiments.

We found a dual cpu (6 core 2.8 GHz) system with 24 gigs of ram.

Let the fun begin!

Boss sent me an email at midnight, and I was working voluntary O/T, so I responded. This morning, he brought me this...

Woohoo! It's linux time!

I just removed windows from my system :D

And it's gone

You have done a great job!! Thanks for delivering the project on time. It is exactly what I asked for. I will ask for no changes and I will pay you right away.

Said no client ever.

Does anyone here use Spotify? I'd love to make a shared list where people put their favorite songs for developing in.

Back in 2011 when I was 14, I created a cmd shortcut on all pc in my school's computer lab. Replaced the icon and renamed it to Internet Explorer. Deleted the original IE shortcut and a week later the lab got closed because they all the computers got infected with a "virus"

i know im lame kill me

Big congrats to @tahnik - the first devRant member to break 10,000 points!

My estimations before devRant:
PM: how long will it take to implement this?
Me: one day, tops.

My estimations after devRant:
PM: how long will it take to implement this?
Me: one week, tops.

Thanks @dfox for making me so productive.

Q: Why always when Dora asks a question, it takes a while until she answers back?
A: Because she's an "Explorer"...

Saw a classmate returning an plain text password from a function to try to push it in a JSON file for an API we have to build for class.

I try to correct him and show him a few things that are better practices and for security, I get yelled at and called a know-it-all for trying to help... I'm so done with people -.-

When none of your stuff is working properly and everyone keeps coming over to bug you

Today in a meeting, a non-dev analyst who frequently uses SQL mentioned in passing that he uses Excel as a text editor for his SQL code. I don't know what he said after that because I wasn't able to get past the fact that Excel is his go to text editor.

I swear to god you'll never feel more epic while coding than when you listen to the dovahkiin song.

Decided to upgrade my avatar with that crazy 1980s vibe.

Went to watch The Magnificent Seven.

The fucking idiot in front used his phone with full brightness frequently throughout the movie. Fucking douche continued to share that he is in a movie hall in snapchat.

The ducker even creeped on some girls on snapchat. What a fucking idiot.

Heidi is hitting me with some harsh truths here.

I'm looking for a hobby project during winter as I can not drive my motorbike during that time. Anyone has a good idea?
Maybe I could start with my old business plan idea, but I would for sure need people to help me.
