I found something really interesting depicted in the image.

It is because of memory alignment / padding.

I could explain it to you guys, but this url would do a far better job:

key to getting in shape faster is joining a gym you can't exit

I kid you not, it's been impossible to find a rubber duck, so I had to make my own. Yes, his head is wonky, it's intentional, I wanted him to match me 😁

Just wanted to share this beautiful Christmas atmosphere i spent in Damascus.

UTF-8 gone wrong

UTF-8, one of the biggest hack that we use everyday. First draft of UTF-8 was written on the back of the napkin.

The room automation (light, doors, music) of a "smart" Hotel owned by our company is still being processed by an API that runs on one of my ex-colleagues local machine. It has now officially been declared as a "server" and everyone just hopes it keeps working.

--- Save some time with Google's .new-Domains ---

A few days ago, Google announced their new '.new' domains.
By using them you can save plenty of time when creating new Docs, Sheets, Slides, Sites or Forms.
So instead of going to Google Drive and creating the document there, users can just input the corresponding URL into the browser!

Here are a few examples:
> 'doc.new' or 'docs.new' or 'documents.new' to create a new Google Docs document (https://doc.new/)

> 'sheet.new' or 'sheets.new' or 'spreadsheet.new' to create a new Google Spreadsheets document (https://sheet.new/)

> 'site.new' or 'sites.new' or 'website.new' to create a new Google Sites website (https://site.new/)

> 'slide.new' or 'slides.new' or 'deck.new' or 'presentation.new' to create a new Google Slides document (https://slide.new/)

> 'form.new' or 'forms.new' to create a new Google Forms form (https://form.new/)

This is also useful for creating special bookmarks in the browser!

My 2018 in one screenshot

So I have implemented all the features required for the current release. Carefully reviewed my code several times, but no testing.

Tester: everything passed green. Not sure whether you're a good dev or I'm a bad tester.

Me: let's call it a draw.

Found this in our code today

Visiting my hometown for the weekend means that i get to enjoy drinks with my old friends for like quarter the price i would pay in the city.

Yes its epic throwing up time

Hey hackers!
Just found root-me.org !
Cool enough to turn me on.
I've just finished first 8 challangrs which were piece of cake.
Let's see how it goes 😎

Forget about coffee, nothing wake you up faster than a colleague mentioning your name in the slack channel where the stderr of the app writes.

Bought this iPhone to test react native apps. Initially thought just want to replace the apple logo with react, but accidentally end up like this 😰

So, my boss is pretty cool. Two of my colleagues made a review of my code (me being new, also on job training). We three were sitting in front of my code, me explaining enthusiastically my code, one of my colleagues looked a bit confused. My boss listening to the whole conversation, he said: "Her code works perfectly". But the way he said it, priceless! I swear, he had a very 'bitchy' voice and also waved while saying that. He looked proud, and we started to laugh.

Le JavaScript~

@dfox thank you for sponsoring our event with goodies. I think devrant gained a few Dutchies tonight. Ive also made sure @linuxxx could grab some (yea try to spot him on the picture!).

I'm in love. ❤️

Learning chineese !

You can tell its legit from their in depth knowledge of JS 👌

am i cool on devrant now

Debugging webhooks is so fucking hard. Took me the whole day...

Which smartass frontend dev thought it would be a good idea to put a cancel button just over the captcha button? Or the website just isn't responsive...

*Sighs opening email*

Another one.

At last💗💗💗

Got my front end friend (also my irl best friend) to agree on me setting up a vm/vps on one of my dedi's with a sub domain so he can learn to work with servers.

He agreed on me leaving root access for myself in case he couldn't figure something out and I (a Linux server engineer myself) would have to help him out.

He seemed so excited, will set this up when I get home 😊
