I have been hassling a client all week for some stuff. I asked my colleague if I should hassle them again today.

Me: Should I check in on them?

Col: Yeah just put a reminder in the chat

Me: i was nice

Col: wow you really were

Me: yeah I can be nice

Col: Did you wikihow?

Me: just went to stackoverflow

I feel so underpaid for this project! 😤

My guess is that The Sun Never Sets on devRant. Is that true? How many countries and continents do we have members represented in?

Finally received the sticker I ordered with vim shortcuts. Now ants around me can edit efficiently >.<

"Are you familiar with uploading your code to Google Drive?"

I left the building at that exact moment.

-------------------------
@trogus and I have had an absolute blast working on devRant over the last year. However, we're strong believers in only working on a project if you're passionate about it, and over the last few months, we've sadly lost some of that passion so we've to announce, with heavy hearts, that we will both be moving on. We've decided to focus 100% of our energies on our next product, one which we are confident has billion dollar potential: Semicolon JS (http://semicolonjs.com).

We identified this sizable market opportunity as we were building out the new devRant website. Every JavaScript framework we tried left us wanting more. More efficiency. More elegance. More extensibility. That's what Semicolon JS is: more. More than a framework, it's a guiding philosophy. We believe that Semicolon JS will do for front end development what Material Design has done for user interface design. We're calling it Semicolon JS because even though you can still develop JavaScript without it, like a semicolon, we think it will soon become a standard and synonymous with quality JS development.

So comes the obvious question. What will happen to devRant? We wanted to make the announcement today because we will be officially shutting down the product in 30 days. So that gives everyone a full month to take in the last memories, look at those rants they really loved, and hopefully take some time to chat with @trogus and I about Semicolon JS and what we have planned.

With so many thanks and looking towards the future,
- @dfox and @trogus

Found a bug at the gas pump.
Can't belive it was pushed to production with it in there.

Today we interviewed a _very_ good Angular1 Dev, by chance we showed him the forked ngRouter module we use, after some debate he explained that we were using it incorrectly.. I asked if he'd used it before to which he responded:

"Yeah, I'm the guy who built it"

😅

What's your favorite musical album while coding ?

So I need to create a nice new web app. Let's look at some cool JS frameworks that I can work with.

*5 mins later* Hm, Angular sounds good, is there any good competitor?

*5 mins later* Wow, React sounds awesome as well. Let me learn it.

Google search result:

"Planning to use react? Check out Vue JS first"

*5 mins later* Ok so vue seems faster than React and much easier to learn. Let me see if Vue is the final choice.

Google search result:

"Angular VS Knockout VS Ember VS React VS Mithril VS Mercury VS Ractive VS Vue VS Riot"

Nope, fuck it

Still the best example of
pass by value vs pass by reference

How I feel at Christmas time when visiting family and everybody swarms me to set up/fix their new gadgets 😁

Someone : I am pro web designer
Me : (Add /wp-admin )

Being a dev by day and a simracer by night. I made a skin because I wanted to see what devRant would look like on a race car.

Interesting conversation at a high level... Until 2011, when it was added to a Google group. And there comes the noise: "thks lulz", "Dear Sir Thank u very Sir", "thank you for everythings"...

Hey guys! Finally decided to jump on board! This is my first rant so go easy.

Working on a project were some freedom of choice is allowed and thinking about using polymer to create a wordpress theme... Is this a good idea or a terrible one?

That feeling when you have 2 linux distros installed on your pc but you still didn't abondon windows totally yet, its like an awkward feeling toward your ex while you are enjoying your new life but you now deep down that there is now going back.

For the Computer Science students out there...:D

Anyone familiar with Wordpress site migration?

I'm trying to move a client site from my dev server to theirs, seem to do so fine, but all urls still point to my dev domain.

A search and replace plugin was recommended but it doesn't seem to be updating the database references correctly...or at all.

Not sure if anyone would mind lending some insight so I don't have to essentially redo the whole website over :p
