Also notification sync, file sharing etc!

Types of Bug Fixing 🤣🤣

Universities in Nigeria still teaching students FORTRAN, COBOL and BASIC.

The fact that I still have to Google up even the simplest of css syntaxes even tho I've been doing css for years now

when I pull latest and all of my code is refactored

I will have a bear.🐻

You can say everything about Git, but you can't deny it's really commited to its job.

A brand new day, a brand new idiot!

Me: *puts small piece of tape over webcam*

NSA: Okay guys, shut it all down. No way we can record from the microphone, log keys, access the file system, USB devices, network data or watch the screen. He did the tape.

When a windows user joins linux community

I tried to install Pacman on a Linux Mint machine. This is what I got. Dear god I'm an idiot.

New engineer : How do you estimate how long a project will take..?

Seasoned engineer : I add up the time required for each task, then multiply the sum by π.

New engineer : Why π ?

Seasoned engineer : It ensures that all my budgets are irr-rational..

When non devs tell you how long a project will take 🙃

An engineer was crossing a road one day, when a frog called out to him and said, "If you kiss me, I'll turn into a beautiful princess."
He bent over, picked up the frog and put it in his pocket. 
The frog then cried out, "If you kiss me and turn me back into a princess, I'll stay with you for one week and do ANYTHING you want."   
Again, the engineer took the frog out, smiled at it and put it back into his pocket.  
 Finally, the frog asked, "What is the matter? I've told you I'm a beautiful princess and that I'll stay with you for one week and do anything you want. Why won't you kiss me?"   
The engineer said, "Look, I'm an engineer. I don't have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog, now that's cool."

"I have 4G in my phone"
Me: That's bullshit! We don't have 4G yet in our country.
*Shows me the phone*
"4 GB"

4+ years of programming.

Still have no clue how to make my own regex pattern.

Every single time I need to, I always open 4 cheat sheets and/or stackoverflow.

"Professor, my if loop isn't working!"
IF LOOP!?!?!?!! 😫🔫

Sister called me on my way to work (she never calls me, we communicate through a family signal) to ask if I wanted to come over for dinner in the weekend because a new guy she knows will be there and also my parents.

Me: hmm idk I've got a lot to do in the weekend....
Sis: he saw my laptop by the way, he was highly impressed that its dual booted and asked how on earth I know about Linux! Then I told him about you and what you do and now he really wants to meet you!
Me: what time would I have to be there?

I hate how that stuff can make me change my mind just like this 😅

Good news: Today my app reached 1 million daily users. 😃😃😃💰

Bad news: It started out as a side project and my shitty code is not scaling well at all. 🙃

Best quotes from IT teacher:

- "C# is a language to program your IDE."
- "C# is a language for beginners, and is not really used in production."
- "We won't use Python to learn programming, because Python is a very old, slow and useless language, and is not really used anymore."
- "Yeah, your algorithm is fantastic, but you wrote 'The answer is: ' instead of 'Answer: ', so it's just a B."
- One of my classmates was bored and opened Notepad++, and when the teacher saw it, she said "I have been teaching programming for years, but I've never seen this program, what do you use it for?"

I feel so lucky that I have started learning programming years before at home, I just couldn't start if I had to learn this way.

I was told during my initial interview that the book "Clean Code" is their Bible here.

And it's true. It's lying, unread in drawers and shelves all over the office.

$ man unzip
Definitely the weirdest command I've used in a while

Heard that this morning.

Someone trying to teach somebody programming: you’ll see, programming is easy. We’ll start slow, I won’t teach how to code in c++, java or linux...

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

How do you want to teach him programming if YOU THINK LINUX IS A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE!!!!!!!!!!

I really wanted to sleep early today but then this arrived

Look what my dad found in the basement!
