Ughhh... I know how to, cant be fit.

Hi everyone,

We're currently experiencing major issues with the devrant.io domain due to another outage/problem with .io domains themselves. More info here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item/...

The issue is also being reported on twitter.

If you receive a host not found, connection error, etc. connecting to devRant, this is why. We'll keep you updated and in the future we will probably be switching away from .io at least for our API.

Thanks for the patience.

Today I actually met people at a financial company that knew more about coding than me....

Are you fucking kidding me? One of many annyoning websites/apps in the Philippines.

Hired a new backend Dev. He writes a script and sends it for testing...
Tester: "It's not working..."
Backend Dev: Goes to Mongo and deletes the tester's whole profile...

I cant control my laughter every time I remember this incident...He claimed it was a mistake, I don't think that it was a mistake...the tester had it coming...
"It's not working" that's all he says every time...I mean at least give me something to start with...!

When u break up with ur girl n she ok with it

Client: ey im not a techguy, just buy the parts for the server, get it running and ship it to me.
😍😍😍

This happens when production issue comes between Onam (Hindu festival) celebration.

Git merge...

It's friday, don't forget to push your code before you go home 😊

So, I found this on the internet

Ok peeps, this is it!

I have completed my contribution to community projects! Wanted to share with you guys...

I was so impressed/inspired with @ChappIO 's www.jsRant.com project that I wanted to create something similar.

So I created an XML stylized stream of rants, in dark theme.

It also reflects how I feel as software developer with my current knowledge - kinda derelict old school!

The underlying tech is Asp.net core 1.1, using my own .net core API wrapper.

So, here it is:

I like my humour how I like my UI.

DARK.

I thought we were encouraging people not to smoke these days? "{0} is required!"

Wise words!

node_modules

Me: “I want the AWS instance with 2TB of RAM.”

Friend: “What on earth for!?”

Me: “I need to run the Slack client and Chrome at the same time.”

So true

Lol, they just used the win10 logo as windows😂😂

That feeling when someone stars your git repo.

Got the chance to check devRant on a 27inch iMac at work, looking good I guess

I don't get 50 shades of grey.

They should have called it: "256 shades of gray unless you're on 10bit HDR, then its 1024 shades of grey"

That would have made much more sense

My way to combat the role of tech support within my friendship group.

SICK AND TIRED OF READABILITY VS. EFFICIENCY!!!!!!!

I HAD TO SEPARATE A 4 LOC JSON STRING, WHICH HAD AN ARRAY OF A SINGLE KEY-VALUE PAIRS (TOTAL OF 10 OBJECTS IN THE ARRAY).

ITS READABLE IF YOU KNOW JSON. HOW HARD IS TO READ JSON FORMAT IF YOU GET YOUR STYLE AND INDENTATION PROPERLY?!?

SO I HAD TO
BREAK THE POOR FREAKING JSON APART TO A FUCKING DIFFERENT YAML FILE FORMAT ONLY SO I CAN CALL IT FROM THERE TO THE MAIN CONTROLLER, ITERATE AND MANIPULATE ALL THE ID AND VALUES FROM YAML BACK TO MATCH THE EXPECTED JSON RESPONSE IN THE FRONT END.

THE WHOLE PROCESS TOOK ME ABOUT 15 MINUTES BUT STILL, THE FUCKING PRINCIPLE DRIVES ME INSANE.

WHY THE FUCK SHOULD I WASTE TIME AT AN ALREADY WORKING PIECE OF CODE, TO MAKE IT LESS EFFICIENT AND A SLIGHTLY BIT MORE READABLE?!? FML.

I was fired from a job where the boss had it in for me. He was a really experienced dev, but he was also very arrogant. He hated me questioning him. I didn't have the evidence nor the "political" clout to back up my criticisms.

It was humbling.

I realised two things:

keeping your mouth shut is often the best approach.

And

my own arrogance was keeping me from getting better, from learning new things. Not just for the company, but for myself.

I want to write better code, make better design decisions, utilise design patterns, actually think about what I'm doing, and be able to justify why I'm doing it.

I want to be able to choose the best tools for the job, not the best tools for me.

I want to be a person that is open to criticisms and I want to be someone who is always ready to learn new things.

Sideproject progress update :)

Coding is life!

Can totally relate to this
