Evil developers on Stackoverflow

A coworker blamed me that our git server is rejecting his changes. Turns out his commits are 200MB large each, including binaries of all newly added libraries. And I was all like:

Reference vs value ;)

In case someone is thinking of giving Linux a shot, but confused about how it works, give this website a shot. Beautifully designed and awesome for learning Linux!

When your friend reads CodeIgniter as Cod eL'gnitter 😁🍻

I'm on the computer so much that it feels weird to actually sit on the couch and watch TV.

Legacy code.

Factorial.

This is 1 (one) line of code with 1 (one) semicolon

The best captcha

What would you do if you found this in a code review?

Beginner: I wrote 1,000 lines of code!
Intermediate: I deleted 1,000 lines of code!
Expert: I prevented code from being written!

I always give people who have 9 +'s on a post one extra, just to give them access to the stickers

It happens to me each month..

That frustrating moment when you have an excellent app idea but a similar app already exists with over 50,000 downloads 😭😭😭

CTO wants all variables in file to be same length. You cant have "start" and "stop". You must have "start" and "cease".

Well today we got to test our system to the extreme and I'm pleased to say it passed. Major power surge followed by a black out. UPS for all networking and servers kicked in without missing a beat and the standby generator outside about 45 seconds later. After explaining to users how to turn on their computer (😑), we were able to get everyone working again in about 5 minutes. Lasted three hours without power from the grid without any client downtime

Anyone else put in headphones with absolutely no intention of listening to anything, just to make people less likely to bother you?

How to hide your important files from people without making Hidden folders 

1. Go to Desktop and create a new folder
2. Name the folder Internet Explorer
3. Change the folder icon to Internet Explorer
4. Keep it in a corner of the desktop

Now, no one will open internet explorer :D

Senior Dev Idiot: "Ugh, I have another meeting with my business users because they forgot how to use my app. I JUST had a training session with them last week too. Users are soo stupid!"

Yeah... No. If your users can't remember how to use your app after a damn week, that means your app is shit and not intuitive or user-friendly enough. YOU are the stupid one.

When devRant become less rants more reposts from /r/ProgrammerHumor

When I'm proud of the new function I invented and have no clue how anybody will get a use of it...

The world is just not ready for this

When you are from Italy and you joke with your own monuments.

Programming is a lot like playing video games. It challenges you to beat quests/tasks and hunt enemy bugs while providing boss levels in the form of large projects with tight deadlines and project managers who like to move the goal posts.

New prank:

Alias 'whoami' in system wide bashrc to 'echo "I am Groot"'.

I'm a newbie when it comes to programming. The thing I like about devRant is that I'm learning how not to be "that guy" from everyone's complaints.

Here's to devRant teaching us newbs how to not make as much of a mess of things.
