Happy April fool's day Zara :)

Looks like someone in LinkedIn forgot to add the username.

First job. Started 2 weeks ago, I'm doing an internship in a Web development company and even though my studies were mainly for Java and Android, it's going fine.
Past week I learnt to use .less and HTML5 and will start with Javascript now.

My friend a backend dev who manages a little UI by using bootstrap themes. One Saturday he calls me up says "Dude, I need your help, we had a demo and the CEO decides to demo the project to prospective people on Internet Explorer. It looked alright on Chrome but the whole UI has gone haywire on IE. Need your help asap. Join me on screen share". I checkout his HTML code and find a file where the link tag is inside the body tag. I ask him to move that into head tag as in wherever the master template is, I tell him to change the doctype, add responsive meta tags, and even after all these, it just doesn't render bootstraps media queries. After beating my head for around 15mins, I see a drop-down caret in IE's inspector with 7 besides it, someone had set the compatibility mode to IE7. Why in the world would someone set an IE11 to IE7.
My friend heaved a sigh of relief and walked to his boss to show that he isn't a bad developer, his boss is just a bad user.

A few tickets to open tonight

This isn't a rant, but I just wanted to share that I just founded my first tech Startup!! 😍😍 So excited to see where this journey leads me.

when the bug is fixed by unknown reason, that is big problem than the bug itself.

no offense but true

True programmer know the value of each bit!

An old conversation with a former Team Lead (TL)

TL: The client has requested for a feature. Can you provide an effort estimation.

(gives estimation with task breakdown)

TL: 2 weeks? They wants it in 3 days!

Me:

My new co-worker is extremely stressing. I have to give small tasks so he won't forget to do anything. I also have to explain what he has to do in detail, give him the full solution, and show him exactly how he has to do it.

And he has no idea how to use git. He makes a feature branch and pushes all his various, half-finished features into it and makes a pull request.

And then I still have to refactor his crappy code everytime cause he uses variables like $data, $accA, $accB, $accZ and forgets to use the definied color variables in sass.

I literally have to do my work and his as well -_-

Coworker gets promoted and asks you all the time how to do his job. Thanks PM :)

When in internship you have to read 150000 lines of code to make changes and the code does not have any comments, no indentation, no documentation, no wiki. You'll be like fuck this shit. I'm outta here.

a Senior co-worker start cron job using cpanel to fetch tweets every minute .
the problem he didn't use/know
'/dev/null'
which send email to the admin for every successful fetch
after a week we discovered this problem , admin inbox full of emails ,also our server get blacklisted (ie. cannot send emails)

When a PM assigns me something with a due date of the same day

So let me start by saying I get so much more done when I am not in the office, so I have my top annoying co-workers

-The number one person. This person was a "developer" but I say that loosely and now she is a Agile champion / Scrum something. She is the biggest PITA constantly going around talking about how great Scrum is.

-This other developer, I actually like the guy, but he just walks over all of the time to ask me stuff. He will grab his laptop and just pop it on my desk to ask me stuff.

-I will go ahead an lump a few together, the ones that have "been doing it a long time" but don't understand the architecture of their own systems. <smh>

When the dev sitting next to you wont stop browsing devrant.

Which one are you? Also, please explain why! 😀

Spent half my day dealing with integrating an adobe captivate project with javascript into my companies "web player" for e-learning content... the lack of smartness of that program frustrates me beyond all comprehension. And because of it i had to stay late to Try and finish up a portion of the course that i had forgotten about... needless to say that i might have to go in this weekend...

Just turned 21. Programming with booze has already brought me to a whole new level.

Thunderbird frequently shows the spinning beachball on my Mac (OS X Lion, late 2006, 3GB RAM (max), SSD)

Is there a mail client that's current (still being patched), runs on Lion and does not suck?

what's up devrants!!! 😂😉

yeah, sometimes I'm like that too...

Programmers haha always joking in code lines, 🤓

When you reported a bug using Google's own sample code. Only changing the list item count = 1 will cause it to never display the data. Yet being marked as **WorkingAsIntended**
