Followed a session from Venkat where he mentioned the RAD principle.. Requirements After Delivery.

Can't ssh to my vps at work; hello new hobby project!
(server hosted on vps, http request -> shell -> http response)
Next up is supporting an interactive shell

Why the fuck would you use a Java Optional in your Scala library. As a Scala novice I just spent about 30 minutes wondering why my map function wouldn't compile 😠

Pluralsight is migrating our company's accounts to a new plan. Because of this I haven't been able to watch videos for the past two days, and the weekend is coming so I'll probably have to wait for next week. How can this 'migration' even take this long?

I think medals would be nice to have on devrant. Awarding medals for special occasions might stimulate people. Thought of this after seeing @retnikt's post about his topic being chosen for w46. Something like that would be medal worthy i guess.

When I don't know what a technology is about, I type it's name into Google search followed by 'vs'.
Google then suggest similar stuff, which helps me understand what I'm looking at.

My area of focus is switching between so many areas of focus without actually having the time to do so. Why is a day only 24 hours long :(

I accidentally deleted the Facebook chat history I had with someone. Wanting it back, I quickly whipped up a program for my Teensy to download and executes a Java app I wrote. The Java app gets the Facebook cookies, decrypts and uses them to read the chat history which will then be sent to me. Now all I have to do is insert my Teensy via USB and I'll have my chat back! *mission impossible music playing*

How do you guys feel about Dartlang?

Blue: most popular hour of the day to rant

Green: percentual comparison of total amount of rants throughout the week

Data since the start of devRant (January 2016)

Conclusion: you guys really are consistent!

USB ports are such a vulnerability.
Using a device as cheap as a Teensy you can easily execute whatever malicious software you'd like on a person's computer.

My only rant is that I've only now found out about devRant.

How did you guys find this platform?
