Hi guys!

Hopefully going to be heading to a job interview as a Junior Front End Developer over the next few weeks. Primarily a web designer but taught myself to code as well. The job uses HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Angular. I've heard a few people mention tests companies use in interviews, has anyone had any experience with these? What type of things should I prepare for?

For less than a second, I thought I found a bug on devrant

Once one of my teachers told me - when giving me and my colleague feedback on a project on Java - that in a certain method we shouldn't be giving as parameters parts of an object, as we're not IKEA or something, when we could be giving the object as a whole. Not the best teacher I've had so far but I still (try to) program by that rule LoL

No offence fortran and smalltalk guys !

No-contract client stops the project in the middle and wants his complete deposite (25%) back. How to tell this asshole that he has to pay even more??

getRandomNumber... :)

guard let param = param, otherParam == .someValidValue else { return }

Beautiful one-liner that validates your function's parameters without having to incur in another indentation level.

Good night

!rant

I think I'm addicted to devrant

When a client complains about how he can't see the site you just made for him... Because he is looking at a printout... And their printer is out of toner. *sigh*

And for my birthday my girlfriend told me "your age++"
I don't know who told her that (she knows nothing about programming languages) but that was cute.

When you meet a senior dev that's far superior to you in every way.

When I get bored at work and there is an empty box lying around.

Strings 101

My son, who is graduating soon with degrees in game programming and economics, found this. Very true.

Just a quick poll here to anyone who does a lot of programming, which IDE do you use? Do you prefer almost paper coding with little or no extensions or features or a full blown solution such as Eclipse?

Find a fault

To all beginners out there, not all languages are created equal.

I hate when someone compares two languages depending on which one gives a "Hello world" with less lines of code.

If you wait till the last minute it only takes a minute

Just finished reading this gem from start to end. It is over 20 years old and it is crazy how it is still up to date and applicable. Great work.

Seen in Amsterdam, getting on a ferry.

Orly?

Work partners, teamwork is important B-)

hmm...
