the most polite virus :)

There is no place like 127.0.0.1, except devRant.

A coder once asked me what 'a git thingy' was... God dam he was eaten alive lol

I'd love to be able to sudo myself through life.

Why do Java developers wear glasses?

Because they don't C#.

I know this one gets thrown around a lot, but it's simple and a terribly great joke.

I've just discovered Jade and Stylus, making webpages for my projects might actually be awesome again!

I'm curious what other people's experiences have been with these two technologies?

100% true 😅

I can't be the only one who makes gestures to my computer depending on how things are going. I give it thumbs up when we got it right. Shake my fist when "it doesn't listen to me", etc

Am I really a Software Developer or am I just really good looking up stuff on Google?

True story

Decided to go flexbox despite issues with Safari 6 (global usage at 0.02%). The boss, its wife, a friend of them and a coworker NEVER UPDATED Safari on its devices and send tons of angry emails with captures of the broken site. This is the biggest 0.02% ever seen!!

One small change to push before playback... what could go wrong? Everything... everything is going wrong.

I once worked at a small dev shop and the previous developer there must have hated the owner of the company.

He hid a script in one of the interal company apps that the owner used every day... the script looped over a method that sent the owner 500 emails that solicited viagra.

when your co-worker instead of commenting a piece of old code wraps it in:

if (false) {
...
}

Took me 2 hours to figure out why my changes weren't working.

My department boss

Boss: Explain to me what your working on.
Me: Just this thing in JavaScript.
Boss: Whats JavaScript ?

SMH...

Oh yeah!

Nothing like finding camelCase, php_case and DotNetCase variables all in the same file...

When you read those job ads "Must be able to work well under pressure and to tight deadlines in a busy office etc.."
Who would willingly walk in to such a shitty role. Perhaps if they fired the management things would improve.

So last night i was dealing with some mysql query issues trying to grab some complex data from a relational database and ended up giving up.

This afternoon i was about half-asleep going to nap, not even thinking about the code and randomly came up with the solution.

A few hours later i made the changes and it works as intended.

Anyone else solve code subconsciously ? 😂😂😁😁

When a developer sees a pm it's like a bull seeing red , especially a day before delivery

Did your company or boss ever do or say anything as a guise to make you think the company is fair or giving you more but instead was doing the opposite? For examples...

When at every company party there is a drawing with top prize an all paid with PTO exotic vacation for two and the top sales guy ALWAYS wins.

I mean really does the company think we are that dumb? It is like the time our CEO announced instead of our 8% quartly bonus if we make EBITA targets we were going to get 6% once at the end of the year. He said that was soo much better cause we would get more money on that one paycheck instead of small sums once a quarter. Think about that one.... What kind of morons does he take us for?

devRant is sooo cool. My new
Word-O-Matic physical keyboard word processor setup will increase my rant efficiency. Used velcro to fasten the phone and keyboard on a portfolio notebook! Way faster than virtual keyboard.

when you work from a sample...

When client calls you next day of his website launching public to complain about his site not showing on Google results.

Went to a job interview for ASP.net even though I don't know ASP.net since they asked me to come. I got the job since I was the only candidate that knew what OOP is.
I don't really want to work there.

- Hey, good morning. Can I see any progress you've done? - Asked boss.
- Hello, it's monday morning, briefing arrived friday - PM answered.

*In Demo*
That's great but you know what would be really cool? If you changed the functionally to something I never mentioned before

when the project manger asks for status on a ticket.
me: what ticket
pm: hold on. (makes ticket). that one.

Oh yeah!
