Turns out, double tapping the rant too fast will not ++ it, but open it (sometimes twice even).

Not certain if it's a bug or just my shitty touchscreen, but make sure you tap more slowly if you have similar problems.

⚠️ DEVRANTRON ALERT ⚠️

Make sure you've updated devRantron to v.1.3.6 since previous versions contains an XSS vulnerability.

<b>If this text is BOLD you're vulnerable.</b>

So true.

This cracks me up ever time 😂😂

Its always a feature. They just dont get it. 🙄

The next time you see developers wearing headphones, please understand that it's our most polite of saying:

"I'm in the freaking 'zone'. Don't you dare disturb my rhythm in coding and lose my momentum. Now unless it's reaaally that important, leave it in our group chat/email and I'll read it later."

Tap gently. We're at overdrive when we headbang to music while coding.

Think twice
Code once.

We're excited to announce the first devRant-sponsored hackathon! It features everything we could have dreamed of in a hackathon: huge prizes ($10k to first place and others), an awesome beer-themed dev competition from lead sponsor Anheuser-Busch, lots of free beer, and an awesome setting at Alley in Chelsea NYC (devRant's hometown, we'll be there!)

It's taking place right here in NYC from March 25-26 and @trogus and I will be there and we really hope we can hang out with members of the devRant community who are participating. devRant is an official partner of the hackathon and we're very excited about the competition itself. There are two challenges teams can pick from: "Internet of Things" (Raspberry Pi’s, Arduinos, etc.) and "Data Insights" - both with the goal of finding creative solutions/innovations to help people drink more beer!

Tim and I look forward to hopefully seeing many of you there. Full details and registration here: https://hacktheworld.beer/NYCHackat...

Please let us know if you have any questions and let's hack some beer!

P.S. the hackathon is 21 years and older only because of the beer theme

Introducing avatar pets & a new way to unlock avatar items! Pets include cats, dogs, birds and tigers. We know getting all those ++'s can take some time, so while all avatar items are just as reachable for free by earning ++'s from rants and comments, we now allow items to be purchased in-app based on the difference in ++'s you have to the ++ unlock value of the item. (To purchase, you'll need the latest app version)

Paying for avatar items helps us keep the devRant servers up and running and also is extra motivation to add more fun avatar items. If you have any questions or find a bug, please let me or @dfox know. Happy ranting!

Every day life

The saddest error message I've ever seen. Poor LinearLayout 🙁
