Interns built a user login portal. Password reset page takes user email from a GET parameter.
You can literally reset passwords if you know the emails 😂😂😂😂

Don't you just hate when your boss goes like:
"Why isn't this feature working?"

SHIT FUCK, IF I KNEW THE REASON, MAYBE I WOULD HAVE FIXED THAT SHIT, INNIT?

WHAT KIND OF FUCKING QUESTION IS THAT?

"Well you should have tested better"

IT TOOK A MONTH FOR 1 USER TO SEE THAT BUG, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT? YOU EXPECT ME TO SEE THAT BUG IN THE FEW HOURS OF TESTING I CAN ACTUALLY DO FOR THIS PROJECT?

"There also are other 15 project to get done"

FUCK THIS SHIT

Cordova: "Requirements check failed for JDK version (requires 1.8.0 or greater)"
Also Cordova: "Detected version: 11.0.2"

Red: Says the example does not use client library.
Blue: Uses client library.

Oh Google, what are you doing?

Apple needs new PLAN!!!! lmao 🤣

WTF!!!!

Servers running with no issues for the last 3 years, goes down 30min before boarding a 14 hour flight

It's about a guy that knows better.

I was working as a subcontractor on a bigger system. We (subs) were not allowed to deploy code, we had to wait for contractor to deploy.

One day I got an email that my code is bugged and that my feature is not working on production. I checked it on test env, everything was fine. Then I checked if the code I wrote was deployed. It was not.

I send an email explaining that if they deployed my code it would be working. Then I got a response. There was a bug in my code.

Another email. I asked how would they know? Do they have a test on their environment that failed?

No. There is one guy that READ my code and he said it should not work, so he will not deploy it. He was not a programmer, he was a business consultant responsible for the documentation.

His issue was that I used a function that was not in a class. So if the function is not declared it's obvious it will not work. I had to explain to him in another email, that you can use object of another class inside your class and then call a function, that is not in your class. It was the last time this guy blocked my deploy.

TL;DR, I had to explain a non-dev how object composition works in order to have my code deployed. Took four emails.

"What the fu-"

Ok, bye....

The new minimum recommended system specs for Android Studio are in

user = bad

*🤣*
This is certainly funny

Takes forever. Finally completed the build. Got the cooler from newegg, which shipped from Taiwan.

You are deep into your code... Thinking, debugging...

Then you stretch a bit and hit your leg on the power button....!!!!😑😣

In an amazing turn of events

not so fast!

Last week's Android development time breakdown:

21.9% Managing state
17.7% Referring to lifecycle diagrams
15.1% Waiting for Gradle
8.5% Reading the official docs on how to use component x
8.4% Reordering auto-generated ConstraintLayout XML
7.5% Swearing
4.2% Googling “Stack overflow component x is deprecated”
3.9% Googling “Stack overflow implement component x on API 24 or lower”
3.7% Googling “Stack overflow implement component x on API 21 or lower”
3.2% Googling “Stack overflow implement component x on API 19 or lower”
2.9% Googling “Stack overflow callback y called twice”, realising its a feature and not a bug, swearing a lot
2.0% Checking if Flutter is mature yet
1.0% Implementing business logic

Any slave here? 🙌

a stored XSS vuln in a banner-like component, visible in ALL the pages in the portal. Anyone can attack anyone.

HOWEVER this was not discovered by 3rd-party security specialists during latest security audit. I have escalated this to my manager and got replied that unless client actively requests this to be fixed should I do anything about it.

FFS.. it's only 2 lines of code.. And there's nothing I can do about it.

Eventualy I was transfered to another project. Now it's not my problem anymore.

Manager assigns a work to Back End developer.

"Build a webpage".

Manager assigns a work to Front End developer.

"Check the server code"

Backend Developer: WTF
Frontend Developer: @%%^#^&&

Became 30 yesterday.

If I were to die by 60, I'm at the halfway point.

If I were to die by 50, I have spent about two thirds of my life.

If I were to die by 40, well only left a decade left.

Sigh.

Dear manufacturers..

Can we stop releasing special edition products and calling them 'Founders Edition'... How do you get the 'Founder' part?

Primary example are Google and NVIDIA, massive companies with enough money to do whatever they wanted and selling a controller or graphics card as 'Founder' is just bullshit, we aren't founding anything, its already there so just call it what it is, a slightly 'Pretty Edition' and call it a day .-.

*multiple tickets come in for the same problem*

me: well, ****

what kind of sorcery is this? how am i suppose to call this class( or whatever it is)'s functions?

Just compressed 35GB of Raw data to 460 MB 😂😵🐒

So the bosses and general peeps at work never close our door properly.

Finally earning the "engineer" part of our job titles :p!

This ... Makes me saddd

FINALLY: my Windows 10 sound has been fixed

Go to Device Manager, select audio device, then properties, driver, yes every 10 year old knows this I know, what I didn't know is that you can select to look for a driver on this computer and not have to have downloaded one, but it shows you a list of drivers, including Realtek's signed ones.

Rant still stands though, why was this setting randomly changed by some update to use a different driver and why isn't it obvious to find this one.

They've generated a very complicated PIN for my new SIM card… 🤔
