I feel like moving away from Windows.
Can you suggest me a Linux distro for day to day usage and work ?

AWS has identified suspicious activity on my account.

I'm using it for the first time in 2 years. That's the suspicious activity.

The adults are the software engineers.

That is all.

Didn't finish morning run in time for morning scrum call. Looks like I'm answering the call from here.

I have to connect my HDMI with certain emotion. Otherwise it doesn't work.

"It is risky to release an app that depends on APIs that you don't control."

Yeah, dude, we also live in the real world.

Better to say: "Your app should handle cases where the third party API is partially or even totally down."

God, some people, they build a wall of rules around themselves and wonder why their skills don't improve.

In c++, memory is like toilet; you need to flush after every use

Perfect job? This...

What do you call a party of developers?

- a git together

Hi everyone,

Over the last couple of days we experienced an issue posting images on devRant posts and comments. This issue should now be fixed.

Apologies for the delay, it to address, it took some digging and we had some alerting that failed that would have helped quickly identify the source of the issue, but unfortunately that part of the alerting wasn't working as expected.

Despite the issue being fixed, there is a bit of additional maintenance that will take place to prevent it from occurring in the future. There could be a couple of minutes of downtime today, March 13 at around 10pm EST, but I'm hoping that can be avoided. I will update in the comments on this rant.

Lastly, and unrelated to this issue, an academic research team has been working on a project involving devRant/types of content posted, and would appreciate feedback and help with a short survey they put together for anyone who is interested: https://devrant.com/rants/3923796/...

Thank you again for the patience and feel free to let me know if you have any questions.

p.s. attached is a relevant meme, according to some people, who thought/hoped this was a feature :)

3. Shit will not work

Nothing makes a dev happier than some new toys for Christmas

Happy Holidays everyone

Thoughts on "questions".

As a junior Dev, I understand asking too many simple questions is irritating and usually not welcome, but, is not asking any questions at all considered a sign of disinterest or "zoning out" or lack of curiosity etc etc ?

Do people think that much ??

So if you ignore Android Studio's update messages and be rude by disabling that notification, it will get back at you and stop giving you any suggestions 👌👀

windows skype doesn't support .png only jpeg.
it's true.

If you have an e-commerce site and you don't let me sort the products based on price, what the fuck are you doing?

Finally, proof that both Avast and Atlassian are shit...

It’s taken how many decades to figure out that Atlassian is nothing more than a well disguised virus.

I think I need a short break soon...
Last night had a dream and met a snake and I asked the snake what is the difference between him and Python🐍

Wish someone warned me years ago programming will haunt me before I pursue this career😥

People who dont know shit about technology and dont know how much work is required to make a product are commenting on how software should be made. (Pure management background people not even senior level).
- PS. Im fine with management people with tech background.

Stupid gradle

Start up leadership advice:

Believe your employees when they say they feel a certain way, or saw there's a problem. Fight the urge to defend what you're currently doing that may address it, and just hear them out.
