For God's sake, check if your fucking webcam works properly and then say yes for an online interview.

Is it just me or when your brain is going through code in the background while you are talking on a video call and then you do a typo in the private chat message and the receiver suddenly thinks you are an idiot!

Craziest prep for interview :

Step 1 : Given sufficient time for the scheduled interview by any company, start by searching "How to prepare for Google interviews". Awe at the information before you and get all pumped up to jump in.

Step 2 : Starting with Algorithms, study each one and try not to mix any of them in confusion. In case you are stuck in whiteboard coding, close your eyes, take deep breath and visualize Don Kunth. If that doesn't help, well you are ruined anyway.

Step 3: Practice coding without internet connection, till you are able to write code while you talk about how the weather is really great today. Libraries and methods should flow like poetry. SO is sin.

Step 4: The X programming language which you added to your resume because you can write Hello World, head over to Wikipedia and read more about it just in case.

Step 5: Read some xkcd comics so you can impress the interviewer with some humor. You can try Dilbert too.

It was a liberating feeling when I realized that Quantum Computing is not gonna make my Netflix(or any other) experience better, but probably help solve some difficult computing problems like TSP....

Any Elixir devs out there ?

I started learning Elixir to explore distributed computing.

Need more inputs.

*sees a new tech/framework/language*

*dives straights to download just checking for windows/mac/linux*

*downloaded product doesn't start/gives error/complains because some prerequisites are not met*

*after some frustration it starts to work*

*To not offend the Gods, writes "Hello World"*

*Carry a "Hackerman" face all day*

*Updates resume*

Many decades ago, people thought about future by writing stories and making movies with flying cars and made up technology beyond belief but what we got today are food ordering apps and dating apps.

Well, its good those cars never came out, because I would rather order food at home and watch Netflix than fly around.

Any Scala dev who can help me understand..

upper and lower type bound and its practical usage

If you want to set off and go develop some grand new thing, you don’t need millions of dollars of capitalization. You need enough pizza and Diet Coke to stick in your refrigerator, a cheap PC to work on and the dedication to go through with it. ~John Carmack

Wish I could left swipe the work I get assigned.

Who came up with "Foo" "Bar" ???

Born as Analog,
Trying to lead Digital life,
Some pretend to be Smart

To Golang or not to Golang?

I'm seeking a job change. Should I go for it?

Back to devRant after a long break.

What's your take on Blockchain as Solution to existing problems?

Do developers like us, have potential if we moved into Blockchain related development?

Internet is fluctuating in our office.
The network team sent out an email of unscheduled outage.
I thought of replying back,
"Have you tried turning it off and on again".

Lol! Did any one of you visit Stackoverflow today.
Check out the theme 😁😁

Java 12 is here.

Why so many releases now.

It was good earlier, years taken for next release.

Atleast we could update our resumes properly.

What books you need to read and understand to become a software architect?

Unscheduled meetings are the worst.

You preparing whole day to leave early for the day, then manager suddenly puts up an unscheduled meeting. Oh great isn't it!!

10 years ago I was learning how to program in college,
Now working in IT company I stare at Excel Sheets and scratch my head.

If you keep seeing your watch, while ignoring your laptop time display, then it's time for you to logout of office.

My first post of 2019.

One month to Valentine's Day, Last year's was spent with beer, the pervious with her. This year I want to spend with her and beer.

I somehow feel I will get neither.

Fuck!! First I thought Java is messed up, but now RxJava is too.

I fucking hate it when the manager comes up with an idea in his head. For him, the idea is the coolest because he itrated over it many times, but you shit fuck the idea needs to run when you transform it into code. Did u think about it?!
No, whatever it is, developers will figure out a way. Fuck off!!

Any Java Devs who have really used Reflections.? Does it really help?

So this manager told me we need to build accelerator. What's an accelerator. He told that it some how manages Microservices.

Long long ago, I had a dream to start a startup.

Till today I'm not able to find an idea.

Then, I realized ideas cannot be forced. They come when they come.

And I'm joining new company today!
