So much work to do but no motivation to write any line of code!!! 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

I won't rest until I can order Uber Eats from Emacs

Had a dodgy stomach. Muted the mic & let out an almighty fart.

Only, as you'll have guessed (and I quickly guessed from the silence that followed), I'd missed the mute button.

I think we should ask the CDC to start versioning viruses. I mean we started with COVID-19. From what I hear it should be COVID-19.1 or COVID-19.2 by now.

Mute your fucking microphones if you have nothing to say. Nobody wants to hear you breathing, your dog, a police car or whatever.

True story ))))))))))))

I was asked to present a code I wrote previously. This was not planned. I shared my screen and presented. Things went well.

One employee asked me to search a particular term which was possibly related to an advance topic in the domain we were working on.

I opened Chrome and the first page had a Quora post: "Why my dull co-workers try to act smart and are not yet fired?".

I hate yaml; finding that one wrong indentation level that makes everything goes to hell while still being perfectly parseable is a nightmare. Brackets were created for a reason, please don't throw away that.

I think my manager has this false impression that just because we are working from home, we suddenly are gifted with lot of free time.

In my experience, the work life is horrible like this. I have not seen much day light in the last 2 weeks.

I don't know how long i can stay sane like this.

The place I'm interviewing for apparently has a "no music" policy. Is this common? Music is a huge part of programming for me. It helps me get into a rhythm and ignore all the little distractions like people tapping their feet, etc. that drive me absolutely crazy. Am I expecting too much here???

Thoughts on pluralsight?

*searches on Stackoverflow on how to push and pull to an array of size 2*

I've seen people do more than 4 as well though

The worst people are the ones who play it off like they know what they are doing. You read a few things online cool. That don't mean you need to set up a mission critical server. Why would you take 2 ssds put them in raid 1 then partition it for c, e, and d drive then set a backup to image c partition to d?

Windows Subsystem for Linux should at least support mounting Linux filesystems inside those subsystems.

There is a 1,000 line program in your 20,000 line program just waiting to get out.

Dev.to app asks me to type in my github username and password into the github login page opened in their app. Is there no better way to do OAuth on Android apps?

My mate bought me a peach stressball that smells like peaches every time you squeeze. It has now become my coding companion.

Today was the first day I ever added @deprecated annotations to our codebase at work

I'm not sure why, but it felt amazing to use those for the first time ever in an active project I work on

What is the longest time any of you have been debugging one problem?
For me it was at my first internship where I was creating a multithreaded qt application. I had a problem that took me two weeks to figure out. I was trying to call a function from a qt thread when it wasn't the main thread. Took me two weeks to figure that out since it was my first time doing multithreaded applications, and the fix was dead simple.
Any similar stories?

Oh boy its actually embarassing...

I was in a cosplay event, when I realized I only have 30 minutes till I check in for my first day in the job as a support agent.

I never had the time to change because of traffic and I was commuting so I spent the next 9 hours in side the company premises wearing a japanese schoolgirl uniform.

...I got quite everyone's attention, even the HR... ( well at least the HR just reprimanded me about that >_<)

Note to self: remember to give yourself 30 minutes more of allowance....

Maybe some of you will find this useful.
I just finished the first stable version of my JSON-library for Go.
https://github.com/thosebeans/...

It provides a DOM-like interface for JSON-documents.

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("Hello DevRant");
return 0;
}

It seems that this salary is getting harder and harder to earn.

Just got this t-shirt from Amazon. 😂
