@Oktokolo he doesn't know right from left

@NoToJavaScript variable names are obsolete?? What the heck? With all due respect, I hope we never end up at the same workplace!

Just came on DevRant to see what people had to say about it. I opened SO this morning and was a bit surprised!

They probably turned on the on screen keyboard.

*bad coders be like

The heck did I just read?

I think there are devices you can buy that play high pitch noises that rodents dislike but can't be heard by human ears.

I've definitely seen more descriptive names...

camelCase is not harder to read than snake_case! fightMe!

That kind of sounds like a poor design choice! Just saying! When it comes to OOP, parents typically should not know anything about their children. Maybe it would be better to do what you're trying to do in a separate class?

@dontknowshit lol! That's strange! No matter what machine I try to access it from, it says there no server available for the request. But I just tested with my mobile data and that works! So the problem must be in my side!

@dontbeevil VS is heavy and slow and has crashed to many times on hardware that should be more than enough to run it smoothly. I have used it for C++. VS code is fast and lightweight and has never caused me any problems even though I have been using it as my main (and only) ide for years now. What are you missing in VS code? Why is it not a full ide?

This is too relatable at the moment!

@jAsE-cAsE Visual Studio Code is the best ide ever made! But my experiences with Visual studio have been a nightmare!!

@Nanos It went from me being 100% sure I was going to marry her to her leaving me for someone else pretty quick. I think she has commitment issues because I know she's had quite a few relationships before and none of them seem to have lasted very long. I'm heartbroken and it happened just a week before I was about to fly over there to be with her after two months of being apart.

So I'm trying to figure out how to deal with it. Sitting at work all day definitely doesn't help because I can't get her off my mind and it's hard to get anything done. I told my boss today that I'm trying to be productive but I just can't. Luckily, he was pretty understanding!

@Nanos man! You really make an effort to help me, don't you! Or maybe your trying to smash my dreams, it's hard to tell :)

Would climbing 1,500 ft tower be the coolest thing ever though!? That's the kind of excitement I'd never get at my workplace!

Sun? I only see clouds!

@pkhairkh I think working remotely would help a lot! I think one thing that I really lack is just a change of scenery during my days. I love traveling and if i could do that while working and not just when I'm on vacation, I would be very happy. I was actually planning on going to South Africa this Saturday to stay there for a few months with my girlfriend. My boss had, very reluctantly, agreed to let me work remotely during that time. But then we suddenly broke up last Friday and I had to cancel the flight. Now I will be stuck at work instead. I guess I could try to find a different place to go but I don't really feel like I have anything to do anywhere because it's not like I have other girlfriend in other places and it doesn't feel like my boss would allow me to go work somewhere else just because I want to. It was hard enough to convince him when I had a reason to go!

@Nanos Yes, you bring up some good points. I think you are right! Every job will be a job and having obligations and responsibilities is simply not fun. That's why we get paid. But I don't think a desk job is for me! I wish I could work as an electrician for example and do stuff like rewiring people's homes. I understand that it would also be work and it wouldn't be fun. But at least it wouldn't feel like every day is the same!

It's probably extra hard right now since I'm going through a breakup so that's probably why I feel the need to rant about it but I also can't say that I like my job in general and I'm seriously thinking about trying a different career!

@dror is the boredom! Programming and computer science is still interesting but sitting at the same desk, starting at the same screen, and looking out the same window all day every day is just not fun! The days feel so long and I struggle to find motivation. I never have any fun personal hobby projects going on anymore either because I'm so done sitting at a computer when I get home!

Happy birthday!

@iiii You are probably right! Whenever I get to work with something that I am less familiar with, the days drag a lot less!
It's a bit disappointing. This is really not what I had in mind...

Vim is great but depending on what you're working on, it probably won't be a good alternative to a proper IDE. Most IDEs have a vim plugin so you can get the best of both worlds!

@PonySlaystation good point!

Huh, strange. The -- button still turns red 🤔

@F1973 I think were discussing the date format

@TheAwesome98 Just googled it. What the heck is that sorcery!? Definitely not better than WebGL though but maybe it runs better on a non-mobile browser.

What a nightmare!

@100110111 Yeah, one of my friends run virtualized Ubuntu on his macbook pro and he doesn't seem too have any problems with it. Im not sure how I feel about running two operating systems at the same time though. Since I'd mainly use Ubuntu, I'd rather virtualize macOS instead.
