Just wanna to share my story:

I just quit my job 2 months ago to ramp up my own startup. I will be funded with 2k Euro per month for 1 year to prepare the founding of my startup. Basicly that means i got one year to build backend/frontend/app. I have a friend that is doing some nontech related stuff like business development and shit. Sounds good until now i guess.
But:
Developing all that stuff in a one man show as a junior-like developer is really hard. I did not find another dev who wanted to join me as a sideproject or something.

Do you guys think thats even possible to ramp up all this by myself or am i to optimistic? I mean, i learn a lot atm, but i am a bit scared to fail too.

That should not be whining or shit, just gathering some input of you guys.

(excuse typos and stuff as i am not a native speaker :) )

We should create
a `make` command
that auto-fixes building problems
by recursively trying solutions
found on stackoverflow.

What is the best financial advice you've ever been given?

I see a lot of well paid developers in my area living month to month with no plan for the future, what would you tell them?

!rant I got permission from @dfox for this.

I'm a visual learner and like to see and hear what I'm being taught. I also am fed up with StackOverflow.. plus, it lacks in detailed learning and best practices. I created a new platform that allows you to view and create live talks for development discussions, demos, and presentations. Think of it like a 24/7 dev conference.

I'm releasing it early to devRant users. Just note, that it is in early beta but I do regular releases.

Go ahead and start creating your talks at http://unityco.de

Got to love 21:9 displays for programming.

Hackr.io is the best website to find effective tutorials for every language. I think every body should visit this website and vote for the best tutorials to help noobs.

If only more manager would think like this! Constant interruptions are poison to the performance of any dev team.

The beast has been assembled. I can now finally game...ehm develop all day

What is your favourite CMS???

Please don't say it's WordPress..

Recruiter: I see you got a good degree, however, what were your high school results (A-levels)?

Me: why would you need them?
(they were average, but I tell the recruiter)

Recruiter: Oh, so you were pretty lucky to get a good degree.

Me: No... I worked really hard for it.

Recruiter: Anyway, my client only deals with people who got high grades in high school.

What the fuckkkkkkk?

#stopthismadness

Today I had a pissing contest with an account director coz she asked a junior dev to upload some code to live site without testing!!! You may own the business, but you have no powers here. my servers my rules.

Like many others my favourote shameless hack is a cronjob to restart our app server at 2am, thus preventing out of memory exceptions

That time when your table start looking like a Toblerone..

And then crash crash.. crash...crash

Software engineering class has been nothing but UML creation. I understand that their important but I just want to actually, ya know, engineer some software.

To summarize it all.
