Anyone else go to stackoverflow to answer questions when super bored or when there's no coding left to be done?

When you don't have money to pay a designer so you decide to do it by yourself.

It's my first try...

Just came across a function with a typo (this is in TypeScript) - let's call the function slightlyComplicaedName - see the typo? t is missing. Wanted to refactor the function name to fix the typo. Next thing I know, the project doesn't compile anymore. There was already a function called slightlyComplicatedName in that file and it was doing something completely different.

I get that naming is hard, but using typos to differentiate between functions seems too much :)

How can you take someone seriously when they send you email in Comic Sans? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Found this on reddit, most of us had been in this situation😀

After an year of not giving up, finally got a certificate. I am a certified developer now, how cool is that 😎😁

lol..suspicious

Problem: Trouble sleeping
Solution: Wine

Okay @theNox explain! How did you do that? 90 notifications and all from you? Either it's a bug or you're from germany too and were drunk last night from carnival party. 😀

I'm now 20 and I have never ever written any Java code, not even the hello world program

Had an onsite at Google.

After a couple of days recruiter told me to try in 6 months to a year again.

It sucks that feeling.

It would be nice if everybody could just leave me the FUCK alone and let me work.
Goddammit!

Nothing is more satisfying and unsatisfying at the same time than completing a personal project that has been giving you something to do for several months.

Honestly if the StackOverflow community was set on fire and I had a huge tank of water

People in Africa wouldn't die from thrist anymore.

Excel is not a project management tool!!!

I'm in my 4th week of a coding bootcamp. I left last nights class in tears and ready to give up. We were barely introduced to JavaScript last week and this week we're on jQuery, not to mention, I'm supposed to have mastered HTML and CSS by now. I don't understand SO MUCH of this!!! Every YouTube, CodeAcademy, TeamTreehouse, etc. video is DIFFERENT!!! No time for this, I have to make a hangman game by Saturday!!!

Its all about the base

I wrote this code about 3 years ago.

I guess we all had to start somewhere ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

when you work remotely and your already shitty(third-world) internet goes down and you have nothing better to do than refresh devrant hoping for an interesting post...

touch grep unzip mount back pack back umount

when you forgot it you copied the white space

A tattoo a week keeps the.... ahhh idk, I just like tattoos.

Sometimes I think we developers are pretty arrogant.
And after 2 hours in work I recognize everyone else is so fucking stupid

hahaha me too, Xcode.

Hmmmmm....

Got a phone interview for a backend dev job in an opsec company.

Interviewer:
This is a very serious and prestigious position, we take care of the most important bits of code.

*Proceeds to talk introductory nonsense*

Interviewer:
Do you know what a DNS is?

Me:
Yes, of course! DNS stands for Domain Name System.... Blah blah blah... I explain about the servers, about hosts file, about DNS spoofing and everything else possible on this topic.

Interviewer:
See, I was patient with you - letting you finish. I'm not sure what you're talking about and where you got it from, but a DNS is that line in the browser where you type the site's name.

He didn't ask any more questions, just told me that they'll get back to me. I asked not to do that.

Three weeks later I got an email claiming that I'm not qualified.

If you name your methods a, b, c, x, z, etc

Then I hate you.

If the idiot wants me to help then use proper method names!

When Python ruins your museum experience :(
There were about four all up like this.
