Just reached 100+!!
Anyhow. I started coding prettymuch 365 days ago. My mate decided to launch his company and figured it was a good idea to start it with good friends who knew fuck all at coding.
Fyi, the dude can code 15 hours straight everyday for about a year (no shit thats what i saw).
Since he taught me html css javascript(even if i still suck abit at js). He made me remake the whole bootstrap in react by adding this new lib styled-components and test everything(95% coverage :)).
He also taught me webpack and rollup. Json schma forms,http requests redux, redux logic, and all the routing shit...he obliged me to i plement RR4 on release and is now making me overlook the merge requests of my other collegue (yes he made me a git pro,almost).
And now i have to work long distance by studying java, spring, oauth2 and start working on our api.
O yeah,and i went from microsoft to full on linux!!!
To be honest i thought i was gonna die this year. (Also have a kid on the way :)).
Devrant has been like going to the psychologist :) everytime shit hit the fan i realized every one has the same problems :)
Thanks to the community i can also now even give out nerd jokes :)

fuck it, i'm going to write a personal oauth2 service
pretty soon on websites you'll see a sign in with google button, and sign in with github button, and a sign in with danny button5 -
The Instagram API sucks a Lot.
Why the fuck I've to login with my account using OAuth2 to get posts of a PUBLIC account, it's so hard to make an authentication endpoint that doesn't require the user to enter his credentials in order to access PUBLIC content?
Fucking piece of shit5 -
Fuck oauth2. Is it a framework or a specification? It fails at both. If it's a framework I want implementations that I can use. If it's a spec I want clear documentation with examples. Fails at both.6

Trying to use a coworker's new API endpoint and I keep getting an "OAuth2 Bearer Token missing" error, despite triple-checking that I set the Authorization header correctly... finally dig into the source code and I find out that all their endpoints require that the bearer token be put into the request body. The fuck?6

Dude GoogleAuth is pure nonsense magic. On one line you get your auth-instance from gapi.auth2.init..
But then you render the auth-button with a static method aka gapi.signin2.render (which has some kind of success and error handlers, but don't worry, they fire randomly, they won't help you debug this api mess)
SOME-FUCKING-HOW this static signin2.rendershit knows of your auth2 instance and it works. But actually it makes no sense and is just a big mess of api-calls. Google, get your shit together, this ain't pretty.
Oh and forget your informative console.log.. this shit will get erased everytime you try something because of "Navigated to https://accounts.google.com/o/...". why ever the fuck this clears the console even tho it doesn't affect the top window. So preserve that fucking log and drown in a mass of bullshit.
In the end, as it is with everything, it somehow works. But FFS that's some weird api design Google has going on..4 -
I've got this... thing. I built it when I first started with PHP. It's an OAuth2 system to pull form data from a service into a plugin, to make the rest of marketing's lives easier. It requires manually taking the initial received token and putting it into a database when doing the first auth. Occasionally it breaks and I have to try and remember the steps to get a replacement token to start the cycle over.
Someday I'll fix it, but for now... Let's fuck about with my browser for a few minutes to get the new token.
