Anybody else see devRantron on product hunt today?

Time for a new laptop, bored with current. Taking community suggestions. May donate current laptop to some poor dev soul in need; has been a trustworthy machine.

I do some of a lot on any given day: c#, PHP, node and typically run vs 2017, phpstorm, datagrip, sql management, webstorm, plus slack, office, etc.

I have terrible browser tab management skills and prefer electron apps over web apps. Am a vm junkie, constantly spinning up linux distros to see something.

Do light gaming when the mood strikes, Spotify or Netflix always on.

Suggest away.

Is there a good technical reason to not allow passwords to contain special characters? My isp does this and I need to know why.

When is the block user feature coming?

Client deletes erp record with a massive amount of aggregate objects. Calls and almost has a nervous breakdown.

Thank god for soft deletes, they make awesome invoices.

Stop sending passwords in plain text via email. Just stop already. If you don't know how to implement a secure alternative, hire a fucking consultancy to assist you.

Fuck. The next time I purchase from you and I get my password in plain text anywhere, I'm immediately demanding a refund and taking my money elsewhere.

Just fucking stop.

Any .net devs want to give me the truth about visual studio 2017? Yes, no, wait are all acceptable answers. Thanks!

Anybody using blisk.io as a dev tool? Thoughts? Worth my time?

What are you guys using for project / task management?

By you, I mean you or your company. It's about that time to make some changes at our agency.. we currently use asana and are starting to hate it.

Bought new phone. Installed all necessary apps. Installed devrant last.

Forgot devrant password. Decide to skip login, will do it later. Press Skip.

Eyes immediately experience fire burn with the intensity of demon sulfur smoke from light theme. Instant headache.

Find forgot password link with the quickness. Reset password, relieved. Login.

Eyes immediately experience fire burn with the intensity of demon sulfur smoke from light theme.

APPARENTLY MY THEME PREFERENCE IS STORED IN PHONE'S LOCAL STORAGE. THANK YOU FOR THE HEADACHE DEVRANT.

Alright what's your alcoholic drink of choice?

I've decided I hate the phrase 'real developer'

What's your favorite monthly subscription?

The one you happily pay every month and would cry without?

Security at its finest

Within your area of specialty / position, where would you place your skills on a scale of 1 to 10? 1 is very new / not skilled, 10 is 'this is what I do and everybody knows I'm one of the best at it'.

Interested in seeing how we rate ourselves when compared to the rest of the industry.

Do you write your comments before or after you write the code?

Do you write var foo = 1; and then go back a line above it / beside it to comment, or do you write the comment line / block first prior to writing the code statement?

One of our corporate clients insists that we push changes and updates to production on either Saturday or Sunday. I've worked weekends for longer than I care to admit now.

A major update that completely changes both the data model and UI is scheduled for deployment this Sunday.

Monday is going to be hell with support requests.

Learn project management. It'll help you enormously in your career

Walking PM through what not to click during demo today..

Factory resetting the primary today. Pray for me friends.

The worst part of being a dev is the inability to leave a problem, any problem, unsolved.

I haven't opened my laptop all day for the first time in 2.5 months. Feels damn good. Got some good laughs today out of devrant; thanks everyone.
