Her "it's just a Web portal how long can it take"
Me "it's a completely custom content management system. It will take time."
Her "well how long then?"
Me "a good six/seven weeks. With a lot of overtime."
Her "oh don't be so dramatic, just use WordPress."9 -
If anybody knows of any independent software for predictive coding (as in not part of a platform) please let me know, I'm struggling to find any good ones that are standalone!

After disappearing since March, it makes me happy to see you all still hate your bosses and colleagues just as much as before.

Since I moved from pure dev to Code Forensics, and studying with Forensic Computing students (who do one module on security), the amount of Kali Linux wallpapers on a Windows machine is overwhelming.
It's like the entire class watched three episodes of Mr Robot and now thinks they can change the world with a goddamn semester of teaching!4 -
Adding in a sleep(3) so my program looks like it's doing something, and not just throwing an error *straight* away, at least it will look like it tried...3
-
I now know why I'm a developer and not a designer, it's so fucking hard like it's goddamn bootstrap that shit is basically built for me but it still looks like an egg took a shit on a toaster
-
Think I'm gonna branch out from dev for a minute and try my hand mucking about with my arduino kit! Any cool ideas guys? Robot Arm seems to be my prevailing will so far4

Some zygote just came into my shop, and had "PC Master Race" tattooed on his arm... I'm all for pc over console but Lord is that dedication1

Everybody's off playing No Man's Sky and I'm here on Mint like whadup, I have a better terminal... But I don't even have that anymore!1

Turns out cpp isn't the terrifying monster it used to be! I must be doing something wrong, it's actually working.4

DON'T LIST A JOB UNDER "PHP DEVELOPER REQUIRED" IF THE SPECIFICATIONS MENTION NOTHING ABOUT PHP BUT ASK FOR WORDPRESS AND WOO COMMERCE EXPERIENCE YOU UTTER BLOODY GRAVY BOAT7

I really like that SO have that documentation section. It's teaching me things about writing documentation that Lord knows University will never teach me. It's great to see how things are done in the industry compared to the ancient practices we're taught.1

I'm a fucking student, so no I don't recieve copies of the utility bills to my bloody halls, nor do I get paper versions of my damn bank statements, since y'know, it's 2016.
It's a goddamn £250 invoice I can't get now, despite getting at least 10 other payments for the same amount previously.
Fuck you in your Royal arse, peopleperhour2 -
Ahhh I've hit 1800 points, if anybody likes any of my posts or comments, I'm coming for you, and I WILL change all your inverted commas for backticks.6
-
So you're telling me, that "margin-bottom: 10%" was more unreasonable than this?
I swear to God maintaining code is just absurd...12 -
I mean I love the way we come together and ask questions and such, and I'm just as guilty, but sometimes I just get this feeling that some users use devRant as another stack overflow. It's devRant, not devHelp. (I claim that name, @dfox)4

Man I love composer, I really do, but sometimes, I wish it would just bloody download and load in the extensions for PHP for me... I know, I'm the laziest dev around, but typing php-curl is a lot of work 😡
-
If you were to write a tl:dr about your life, what would it be?
Mine would be tl:dr, spent 14 years finding a backtick in a PHP file.5 -
That second or so when installing a package and GDebi is checking whether the dependencies are satisfiable
-
I'm so sick of stupid little bugs. Not proper bugs like, I don't know, a memory leak or something significantly wrong, it's always a bloody semi colon or backtick...
