So far nothing yet, since I'm in a region of the US with no confirmed cases. Am worried about relatives in China though.

Tensorflow in the browser... I'm not sure how I feel about this

Google's Flutter framework. Goodbye JavaScript.

Stop using Scratch and Alice and start teaching actual programming languages

I fucking hate group projects.

These fucking dumbasses that don't know how to write shit. "This is a software that connects to THE phone" in a fucking business letter.

I bet a fucking second grader can write better than this piece of shit.

An iPad Pro is totally better than a computer.

Can I code on that piece of fuck? No? Fuck off.

Why are modern apps so god damn huge? A fucking messaging app doesn't require 500000000000000 MB!!! I wonder what shit load of fuck they're packing in those apps.

Wow...

Best experience: Downloading devRant
Worst experience: Being on devRant for so long it's making my productivity go down. 😑

Oh BASIC night, the LEDs are brightly glinting;
It is the night of the dear GOSUB’s birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error printing,
Till you appeared and the RAM felt its worth.
Shiver of fear, line numbers do inspire,
For yonder breaks a mostly harmless GOTO.
Fall on your bits, O hear the Visual voices!
O BASIC divine, O BASIC where GOTO was born!
O BASIC, O Holy BASIC, O BASIC, you’re mine!

Some want to say, “GOTO is harmful always,”
But what of them, in their post-modern world.
We PRINT the truth, in the line-numbered goodness,
But Dijkstra appeared, and the faith, it was lost.
A thrill of hope, when .NET BASIC announces,
But Visual BASIC, what kind of thing are you?
Fall on your GUI, O see the old line numbers!
Behold BASICA, O BASIC when DOS was born!
O numbers, O lines, spaghetti divine!

One day they will understand: a "/" is not a backslash and "\" is not a forward slash

Mom: So you "play" on your computer all day.
Dad: You're not fit enough to be working with computers all day.

Finally received my stickers. Thanks @dfox!

When your parents expect you to be tech support and then fucking can't fix it, they get all like "You suck at programming". What does that have to do with fucking anything?!?!?!

Friend brings over a Windows 8 all in one laptop.
Friend: Can you fix my laptop
Me: I'm a programmer
Friend: I thought you worked with computers.
Me: I do... but I'm not tech support
Friend: Please?
Me: (reluctantly) Fine.
*many hours later after attempting to get the PC to boot from a USB. WHY DOES THIS PC NOT HAVE A KEY TO ENTER THE GOD DAMNED BOOT MENU AND HAS NO BOOT ORDER SELECTION?????!*
Friend: Have you fixed it?
Me: No
Friend: You suck at computers
Me: ....

Never spoke to him again.

Dumbest Tech Question Ever: How do I transfer power over Bluetooth.

I was 11, I picked up a Java book out of interest. I was fascinated from minute one. I got interned at a tech company 3 years later.

Why is supporting Windows Server 2003 in the project requirements?!?! Isn't that like fucking 13 years ago?!?! The support for it has even ended like 3 years ago. Also, why are people using Windows to host their servers? Do people know what Linux is???

The moment when the product manager changes your requirements last minute and you have to change all of your code. 😑
