@sideshowbob76 Only if they follow patterns and don't fuck around with the layout structure...
But unfortunately they do. Even if we have a clear design system to solve that. They still fucking do. -
@chonky-quiche True.
-
Fuck designers and figma. Again!!
-
@chonky-quiche Very true. But you can filter them by making boundaries and charge them on any extra features outside scope.
-
Fun to reqd. But the real problem are the designers. Fuck those as well!!!!
-
Run away. Fuck all that
-
That would make me happy. Refactoring and a breather.
-
@K-ASS you'll be surprised.
-
Call only to save them from doing something really stupid. Everything else is a text
-
@Oktokolo yeah. Poor them. They worked so hard, they left no room for dev. We can live with no tests and who needs QA.
-
It's hard and feels useless at first, but you'll get it in enterprise work
-
Very good analogy
-
They should also mention that they take pics of you every now and then if you are working remotely.
-
Never do a project for free. Fuck em. I bet their lead still googles shit like basic Js
-
@nebula already did. They just assumed that because I'm a developer I should know these things.
-
Your account will self-destruct after this
-
@Oktokolo True. But this designer was told not to overdoit since the dev time was limited and did it anyway. Told her to use the component that we already build for this situation instead of adding new flare. But she added new flare a more scripts. Complained to the manager that I'll have to rebuild the component they complained that it took a lot of time to rebuild and he kinda shrugged it off.
-
@samymassoud Thought of the same thing before I got asked this question. I was expecting to debug or review a Module or something of the Drupal backend. Or even scripts for the cli tools. I get that they want to test the vanilla coding skills. But still. Got a little sad that coding interviews haven't changed since I was a jr 10 years ago.
-
@neriald sure it's the closest enemy question in coderbyte. It's an easy one but wasn't expecting this for a specific role in Drupal.
-
@ars1 I feel ya. Guess that's the only thing that kept me "loyal" to the company.
-
@electrineer hmm don't mind if it's like that since I speak spanish.
It is the first time I find a coding book where the code is not available. Or at least some code samples. -
RIP 😢😢
-
Also their documentation is shit. But the fucking LOVE forms and more fucking forms.
-
@PonySlaystation The dev did not follow any standards at all. Used dumb js hacks for sliders and images and left a steaming pile to debug. I'm usually very chill with jr codebase but damn this person shouldn't be allowed to code alone at that level. Glad I overestimate this project since this has been a nightmare to debug
-
Dumb toxic environment. You dodged a bullet there
-
@Grumm Usually is more about refactoring rather than debugging.
Convert CSS into SCSS. Separate into SMACSS components. And separate states vs components with animations
I see that most jr. Devs put everything into one file and don't follow the coding standards setup by the framework.
So technically I will consider it buggy code since it's not following any standard. Just "hacks"
Very hard to expand upon or create features on top of it. -
Got called by on of those. Rhey wanted me to travel to detroit for training. Fuck em. Got a job in the same city anyways.
-
Yeah I pretty much went with the webp route.
-
@ElectroArchiver jpg, png I think. Not a frontend dev but acting as one for the meantime

Update:
Found out the broken images . Turns out the images where embedded remote links located in articles from a migration that I did for them in Drupal.
The previous content creator did a shitty job and left the articles with a bunch of embedded remote images instead of just uploading them into the server.
Now the links are broken and the images are gone.
He/she left a shitty job with a lot of embedded images instead of just uploading them and now I'm getting shit on Sunday on how to get images back from a closed remote drive after explaining to them that it's not my responsibility to fix 3rd party broken links.
After not getting the response they wanted they asked on the chat for another developer's opinion. So why the fuck did they bother me for in the first place.
