Syntax error!

This is my first meme just wanted to say hi

One of the greatest books I've read so far.

His friend asked him about programming languages.

When Hacker News commenters say "I could build that app in a weekend!" I think of this chart of how Slack decides to send a notification - Matt Haughey

Asides; Can one really build an app in a weekend?

So I need some advice from some fellow devs here...

I recently accepted a job offer at a new company and I'll be leaving my place of work for the last 11 years. I'm a senior level dev who comes from a place where software is more of a secondary function and the skills of my peers are very... Atypical of most software developers.

My interview was ok, but I passed the mark barely - in that they recognize I'm rusty and have some gaps to shore up, but have decided to give me an offer anyway. I'm taking a "step down" to enter in as a level below senior to get my foot in the door of a real tech company.

I've got myself convinced I'm setting myself up to fail, despite being told by people that work there that they encourage mistakes and that they wouldn't be offering me a position if they didn't think I'd be successful.

Is it typical to feel inadequate and worried you'll be fired prematurely for underperformance? I've had little to no experience in a fast paced tech job so I have little to refer to. I was a very high performer where I'm coming from, but that's hard to equate to where I'm going. It seems like classic "impostor syndrome".

I've not even started there yet but I'm terrified my anxiety will get the better of me before I even have my first day there. Anyone out there have any advice?

I'm excited for this new opportunity but I can't seem to shake the fear of the unknown.

Shakira as a programmer : Heaps don't lie

Why does devRant logo and avatars look so sad?
Are developers sad by definition? 😂

How do I keep improving as a dev?

By reading blogs (what a dull answer damn). But I really liked CodingHorror, JoelOnSoftware and Jon Skeet's. But they've all become stale :(

Programmers can do a lot of things and 'reading' Movies is one of the best.

Me: double-taps rant to like it
DevRant: "Pro tip: You can double-tap rants to like them"

A little bit of Lua in my life
A little bit of Java by my side
A little bit JS is all i need
A little bit of bash is what i see
A little bit of JSON in the sun
A little bit of Python all night long
A little bit of TCL here i am
A little bit of this makes me your dev

Lmao.

The saddest error message I've ever seen. Poor LinearLayout 🙁

How does a front-end developer get away with murder?

$('body').hide();

//I'll see myself out

He's testing it twice

To town. 🎶

Just learned new skills...

So I need to create a nice new web app. Let's look at some cool JS frameworks that I can work with.

*5 mins later* Hm, Angular sounds good, is there any good competitor?

*5 mins later* Wow, React sounds awesome as well. Let me learn it.

Google search result:

"Planning to use react? Check out Vue JS first"

*5 mins later* Ok so vue seems faster than React and much easier to learn. Let me see if Vue is the final choice.

Google search result:

"Angular VS Knockout VS Ember VS React VS Mithril VS Mercury VS Ractive VS Vue VS Riot"

Nope, fuck it

Spend half an hour finding music to listen to while I code; Pause it after 30 seconds to concentrate on refactoring. Stays paused for rest of day.

Really getting the most out of those expensive new headphones.

Just saw a variable in C named like this:

long time_ago; //in a galaxy far away

I laughed no stop.

void walks into a cave
doesn't return

I'm pretty sure Shakespeare didn't say that.

"So, why do you want to work at our office in mexico?"
"I want to be a señor developer."
