hope this isnt a repeat. have a great weekend guys!!!!!

I swear upon the gods of the internet! Any time I am trying to read an article/blog post/anything and the site puts a god damn pop-up form asking me to sign up for something, I leave the site. ESPECIALLY ON MOBILE WHEN YOU CANT CLOSE THE DAMN WINDOW WITHOUT GIVING UP YOUR INFO.

And every time a client asks me to do this I nicely explain how much people hate pop-ups, 99% of the time I've closed the window or tab before I even read what the box is asking for, I don't care.

If the user is trying to read something, then they are trying to read something, and they don't want to be bothered with your ridiculous attempts for information gathering so you can spam them later.

Programming Challenges

recursion?

Heidi is hitting me with some harsh truths here.

Big thanks to the guy who blamed the poor structure of a legacy database on me today because I'm young. You made my day

My leaders asked me to run the technical interviews for a position I have been asking for since I got this job. Because I am the only in the team that codes for Android. Am I friend-zoned in my job ?

I've read so many stuff in english that it feels really weird to read something in my native language(german). Especially when they're using german words in their code:

public Nahrung mittagessen;
public Gast()
{
mittagessen = new Gericht("Wiener Schnitzel");
}

are you fucking kidding me?!

When someone changes the API at 5pm without notice and you get a call at midnight that no one can login.

How to write bad code

Spotted this bus in Boston today. Completely ripped off the html5 logo.

what people think when I say I program in COBOL..

I kid you not, one of my designer friends dipped his toes into coding, he ran into a problem...

Wondered why the following function wasn't returning a random number...

public Int getRandomNumber(){
return 4;
}

Good idea!

a sysadmin has 2 problems. dumb users and smart users.
