Rant! I found a bug in payment provider's api. The bug involves sending an invalid (!) Stripe ID to that API, (which I send on purpose btw) Which causes a complete white page when you login to their systems and view the details of that customer. Btw the API will accept that invalid Stripe ID without questioning and returns a 200 status code back.

So I send a mail to there support saying "look I found this bug by accident, this is how you can reproduce it"

And the support team send me a message back saying "then don't send an invalid Stripe ID"...

You don't freaking say... *sigh*

Can you modify our printer so it does plastic ID cards?

Me: hello IE, you see that div with id?
IE: ...... ..... .... yes.
Me: would you like to set it as absolute and stick to bottom?
IE: ........... i don't know...
Me: but all the other guys like chrome and firefox are doing it.. come on it's not object-fit: cover; just absolute positioning. Please.
IE: ......... I can't!
Me: why the fuck not??
IE: ......because I don't see the id...
Me: FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT!!!!!
IE:...............

Fine I agree....but how secure is the face ID ??

-all of the same points can be applied to it.

Apple doesn't trust Google and they seem to host their YouTube ads on another server xD
They ads ain't got no YouTube ID.

A faster, better YouTube they said, 'YouTube needs permissions to Contacts, Location, SMS, Microphone, Device ID and information', they said. :/

I'm good with a slower, worse YouTube.

My mom has a new IPad.
it took my mother and sister 4 hours to make an apple ID.

I offered to help, but they said they wanted to do it themselves

So, i opened my sister's laptop and opened google, i googled: "How to setup an apple ID". left the laptop near them, and hoped they notice it, and they did.

id like to give a shout-out to whoever the fuck this is

👏 what a great name

Apple should make this.

Just spent 30 mins debugging an Instagram api that I had used several times before. I just realized the problem was that I was registering and using a twitter app ID. :/

Asked a boomer client to send their email Id. They sent it along with their password. Written on a piece if paper. Through their neighbor.

Looking into a helper class written by someone who was clearly not a master of their craft. The class deals with some string IDs...

public getIDPosition1(String id){
return id.substring(0,1);
}

So far so useless. But it gets better. What is declared immediately below the above method?

public getIDPosition2(String id){
return id.substring(1,2);
}

And below that? You guessed it:

public getIDPosition3(String id){
return id.substring(2,3);
}

This continues to position 10.... -.-

It took me way to long to realize why the queryselector failed

Id rather work than socialize.

Just received an email from Apple ID noreplyappleidaccountlocked.case4125@trustedsender.company that said my apple ID is locked. I must send my personal details to unlock them.

I wonder how many people got caught by it :(

return false;
}
return false;

What's the point?

Thought id share this gem

Today I noticed that my first name on my Apple Developer Account was totally wrong, even though the name on my Apple ID account was correct. Trying to fix the wrong name sent me to the Apple ID Account page with the already correct name. I contacted support.

It turns out the developer accounts pull info from your Apple ID at creation time, AND NEVER AGAIN. WTF? So you can not make changes to your dev account, because they are non-updateable..

The fix? Sending a copy of a photo ID to the supporter BY FAX?!?!? This is Apple we are talking about.. in 2017.. I don't know anything anymore

that moment when you realise the ID column in the DB has no auto increment on it after sending a 900k lines query... FML

Oh my glorious diarrhea code.

DELETE FROM
[table]
WHERE
id = id

(instead of @id)

I can't believe people are willing to scan their faces, fingerprints, and retinas on their phones.

Such data is very sensitive as it can't be changed easily.
CCTV is now everywhere and everyone has his own scanner providing data for tracking people.

Am I too paranoid?

Select finger from hand where id = 2

Linux is only free id your time has no value

The same code works in the console but not in my script. Freaking hell.

Thanks, Capybara.

Client support ticket: we printed the ID cards without leading 0’s can you fix it with software?
Me: unfortunately we cannot because the ID number can be any length. ID 123, 0123 and 00123 can exist. What barcode would 123 go to?
Client: this is ridiculous we will cancel our contract.
Me: i’m sorry we can’t correct for a mistake on your end.
(Side note: I know allowing 0123 and 00123 is dumb but my team didn’t design the business logic)

Same days you just need a duck.

Oh yeah 🙌🏼 I hate people who use same ID at multiple places on single page.

I think I should start mentioning my devrant id in my resume.

I hate when people don't capitalize ID in all caps. It is confusing when the write it as Id or id, because I don't know if they're talking about an identifier or the aspect of human nature that exists from birth that subconsciously drives you to want to fuck your mother.

GF studying C# 😁

So I’m thinking this is one of those apps I wouldn’t mind having Touch ID on or some form of 2FA 😏

What do you say guys?
@dfox, @trogus

Spent bloody ages trying to figure out why my Modal wasn't working. There was a space in the id name :/

Just spent about a day and a half debugging my code a million different ways, only to discover that the third party call that kept failing needed the id in UPPERCASE.

Have you hratd the song 'try harder' from offsec?
The song id damn COOOOOOOL!!

So if you guys had a variable with an "ID" in it, would you write it like this:

"var userId;"

or like this:

"var userID;"

?
Just curious.

I just found out that my co-student was working for 3 days on editing id's to a excel sheet with 500000 rows because she didn't know that you could just drag the cells. She was really mad beacause i told her she needed to do that as a joke. Feels bad tho. Funny but bad ....

I really wish i was a good designer. Id love to put together attractive frontends with cool and unique ideas.

I also wish i wasnt colorblind.

Some of the guys in our team like to throw pranks once in a while. So they printed a version of my ID with Mr. Putin's face instead of mine (a decent upgrade in my opinion) and put the paper on top of my ID. I was walking with it around the office for God knows how long until I noticed.

So with the GitHub thing confirmed, should devRant profile add a field for GitLab ID instead? 😁

Shopping with my girlfriend when I spot this. Nobody to see for miles. Guess this wouldn't pose a problem, would it? I mean it wouldn't say secure Id, if it wasn't secure...?

Just spent 30 minutes confused as hell because an API call I wrote just randomly stopped working.

Forgot that I hardcoded an ID for testing purposes and then ended up creating a new object with a new ID.

Needless to say... they didn't match. Explains why my query retrieved zero results.

I had a response body that I needed to obtain data from. It would either come as {success: {name, id}} or {success: [{name, id},{name,id}]}
I couldn't loop over something that wasn't a list and I couldn't just ask the type of the element in success so in my infinite wisdom I split the cases by examining the length of the element in success. If it had one it was an array and could be looped over, if it didn't, it was a single object to be processed 😂 if it works it works (it's still in production, tyvm)

Not the worst, but probably the only one I can sort of explain & not get into trouble for NDA breach..

Umm.. here it goes.. wrong id returned from db procedure, tried to do something on db with that id and got exception that the id doesn't exist. Instead of checking why the procedure returns nonexistent id, he just wrapped everything in try catch without any logs.. & of course, didn't tell anyone about this.. o.0

I know, I know, code review could have prevented this, but holy fuck..
Guy's cv had more experience than I have now, so at the time, I didn't think I'd have to check every line of code he wrote, especially not for shit like this.

Go home iOS, You're drunk

Never again...:

DELETE FROM objects WHERE id - #####;

😳...fml

If i wanted to spend weeks analyzing systems instead of writing them, id have gotten my diploma for fucks sake.

My web dev teacher insists on pronouncing the 'id' attribute as it looks. I sat quietly in my seat thinking they should be pronounced "I D".

Issue reporter:
Feed from external service provider is overwriting the wrong things, pls fix

Resolution:
Service provider is sending duplicate unique IDs, you need to get with them to discuss

Service provider response:
This is a *RE-USABLE UNIQUE ID* . . . The bottom line is you should not use this UNIQUE ID as a primary key.

Debugging a HTML code from 2 hours which was working fine..

Ah!! No 2 elements should have the same id

The problem is I use class=“app” instead of id=“app”

Apple: this AppleID has been locked for security reasons.

TL:DR
Why do so shitty "API"s exist that are even harder to write than proper ones? D:

Trying to hack my venilation at home.
This API is so horrible D:
The API is only based on POST requests no matter if you want to write values or get values and the response only contains XML with cryptic values like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<PARAMETER>
<LANG>de</LANG>
<ID>v01306</ID>
<VA>00011100000000000000000010000001</VA>
<ID>v00024</ID>
<VA>0</VA>
<ID>v00033</ID>
<VA>2</VA>
<ID>v00037</ID>
<VA>0</VA>

Also there are multiple API routes like
POST /data/werte1.xml
POST /data/werte2.xml
POST /data/werte3.xml
POST /data/werte4.xml
And actually the real API route is only given in the request body and not in the path.

Why is this so shitty? D:<

Btw in terms of security this is also top notch. It just globally saves if one computer sends the login password.
I mean why even ask for a password then? D:
That made me end up with a cronjob to send a login request so I don't have to login on any device.

PS:
You see, great piece of German engineering.

Hey, senior developers, is there a reason for this?
I just can't believe it.
The line that makes me wanna kill is the
$("#" + id).val(val);

Taken from a very profesional site.

SELECT finger FROM hand WHERE id = '3' AND owner = 'me'; DROP ALL TABLES; --

I gave vimeo video ID to an intern, told her to use vimeo link in iframe and she replaced a youtube video ID in the iframe and told me that it's not working.. facepalm

When you find you should use `$("#id").html(response)` instead of `$("#id").innerHTML = response` and it works just fine out of a sudden.

So, how was your day?

To @sman5922 who posted their metro card with devRant stickers, I replaced my boring back of office ID card with this!

My react code in production broke because one of my senior renamed a field in sql query to 'id' instead of invoiceid.

Just spent three hours debugging why a jquery didn't do some actions with a div through its id. MAYBE NEXT TIME I SHOULD CHECK FOR FUCKING DUPLICATE ID'S AND REMEMBER COPYING SOME CODE THE DAY BEFORE WHICH CONTAINED THAT FUCKING ID. GODVERDEGODVERDOMME.

Mark Zuckerberg probably still has profile ID 1

Hello Governor 5200eS5200ec5200SE4800000E, please press the 'ok' button.

Just spent half an hour fixing a "bug" that turned out to be a wrong id in the db..

YOU DENSE MOTHERFUCKER!

If anyone read my last rant, I talked about how I wanted to buy a new phone with a subscription line, but they didn't allow me because "the system says you already have one and you're over due with the payments"

FUCKING MORONS, I don't know who coded the system but I will find you and bury your head in your own shit!

They use people's RFC (Mexican Tax ID number) to create an "account" and allow buying a phone. The ID it's composed by:

NNNNYYMMDDXXX

Where N are letters from our name, then they use our birthdate's year, month and day, finally they generate three unique characters to avoid ID clashes.

Well, this stupid fucker who coded the system thought it was OKAY TO STORE ALL BUT THE CHARACTERS THAT MAKE THE ID UNIQUE.

Fucking fucker...what were you thinking?

The devRant gods got me puzzled again

The api for voting posts is

Changed my Apple ID (email address), couldn't logout from Macbook (access data invalid), had to change it back just to logout and change it back to login with the new one :/

When you're debugging a method called

I forgot `0` evaluates as `false` so this statement always returned `false` if `id` was `0` >.>

Fetching object from db using id of the already obtained object
.get(pk=self.pk)

It is not on production anymore, but it was for long enough. Someone thought it would be a great idea to be able to debug a web app while signed in as a user reporting a problem. How to do it? It's easy. Just check on every request if magic HTTP parameter SIGN_IN_AS=id is present and if it is, sign in as this user. Of course, it worked also with admin account with hard-to-guess id=1.

Me: This element is ID located (and visible) in your page, so it must contain it.
Selenium: I've never seen that element!

This Safari Bug is sooo bad, really hard to find it. (It initializes new variables with the element where id and variable name is the same, why?)

If you were to teach others a last thing before you die, what would you say?

Id tell my surroundings to use time efficiently. We only have like 800.000h, assuming that we become 100 yo. thats nothing.

Please dont make jokes, id really like this to be an informative thread

When a JSON structure returns back as:
{
"array_data" : {
"123" : {
"id" : 123,
"name" : "NAME"
},
"176" : {
"id" : 176,
"name" : "NAME"
},
"189" : {
"id" : 189,
"name" : "NAME"
}
}
}

Instead of:

{
"array_data": [
{
"id": 123,
"name": "NAME"
},
{
"id": 176,
"name": "NAME"
},
{
"id": 189,
"name": "NAME"
}
]
}

I was thinking about how I implement login functionality, and realised I have no clue how I came up with it so decided to ask if it was a good way to do things.

Basically, client logs in, username/email and pass are sent to server.

Server salts and hashes password and checks it against the one in the database for that user.

If its correct, send the client the user ID and the user token. (User id could be username, or a number, it depends)

When that client makes a request, the request must contain the ID and token.

The server checks that the ID and token combo are correct, and because the ID is linked to the user we know who it is and can complete the request.

Usually I make the token a random string of 16 or 32 chars, each account has their own token, and it may be stored in the browser so they stay logged in. I also normally add a "log out everywhere" button, which essentially just generates a new token to overrides the current one, making any previously saved tokens invalid.

If you use ID selectors in a stylesheet for a component you reuse in the page multiple times you should be shot.

Sometimes I come across this:
<div id='myDatePickerForm' ng-show='showDate' ng-hide='!showDate'></div>

Just a quick one:

Testing team: hey your webservice isn't returning the id number of this customer we used it to look up, fix it

I take a look and sure enough the test customer doesn't have an id number *screenshot of blank field*

I add an id number to the customer and test it out again. Lo and behlod, there's the id number! *screenshot* *send reply*

Seriously wtf this is basic

What I write:
select * from x where id in (1,2)

What appears in sql-server management studio:
select * from x where IDENTITY INDEXKEY_PROPERTY (1,2)

5 months ago we are using string for identifying some stuff:

var abc = "badstuff/abc"
var isBad = abc.indexOf("badstuff")>-1

// fine

we later switched to id, so

var abc = 13;
var isBad = abc.indexOf("badstuff") > -1;

// well this is wrong

so I approached the colleague and said to her that we use id now, indexOf("badstuff") no longer works, and id can be arbitrary, like 3245.

-- ok ill do it.

I dont know 3245 looks really like a special id or not. this is the outcome:

var abc = 13;
var isBad = abc.indexOf(3245) > -1;

lol.

Sometimes lack of confidence in one area reveals oversight cockyness in stronger areas:

Set up a simple login system from Unity engine to php to mysql db, using android device ID as the login id. Set up database column to accept 32 length varchar for MD5 hashed strings, as I knew the method I was getting the android device ID was automatically being hashed that way and more or less was what I wanted anyway.

Spend 2 days wondering why it would insert the logins with 0 issue, but could never retrieve them. Due to lack of web development and PHP skills, I assumed I was screwing up the handling of mysqli_num_rows() (to check whether I was inserting or selecting in the query) or simply screwing up my SQL queries.

Rewrite the code a few times, even went back to a method I had used in the past.

Today it dawned on me that my testing machines deviceID had been getting trimmed to the 32 character limit. Turns out I didn't account for my workstations device ID to be automatically hashed like the android device id is.

For 2 days I was obtaining and sending a 40 character string to a 32 character limit varchar and blaming my lack of PHP skills........

Back to my niche I go!

Oops 😅 I meant id=1

Why do front end developers like to write their HTML/Component markup like this:

That lone > bracket absolutely irks me! Looks ugly! I prefer the Android style:

👌clean

Well id definitely like expert help on this

Debugged my scss for 4 hours only to find out that I use id instead of class in my template

So this is my first experience of shitty code written by colleague

God, for REST API she used ?id=<int>
Not only that,
if the route was /cms

she used GET method for /cms/get/?id= to get single record and
/cms/getAll again in GET method to get all records

Damn

I know your interest if I know your email id.

API endpoint returns data on thing with id number you specify

request data on certain id numbers

gives response data on different id than what you requested

how fucking horrifying

we depend on this thing, but we don't own it at least

That time when I requested someone from a different department to include the ID row in their database excerpt. Me, having the lowest possible status in the company, did not know the who I wrote to was the boss over at the other department. So I ask straight forward: "Could you please include the ID row?"

Then a damn long email comes back stating that there was absolutely no time for stupid shit as mine. There existed no ID row and I would only waste his time. All further requests should be route via my boss.

So, fuck, he's pissed. So what he deserve? A shit load of honey right into his mouth, like he wants to.
That company had a huge ass hierarchy in job positions and I was at the bottom. So I write my oh-im-so-sorry-mail.

~I never knew what position he had and that I would of course fuck off with my stupid request.~

What was his response?

Oh, yeah, thanks. Have a look into the attachment, is that the ID row you requested?

Yeah, as one can guess, it was.
Stupid honeyfucker. Of course an ID row exists, duh.

this is not really a programming rant, but I hate people that live by stealing from your pocket, I've lost everything... 12 cards incl. ID card

Happend a few months ago...

We encountered a performance issue somewhere in our Code, written by a guy who already left.
It was kind of this:

foreach(var id in idList)
{
CallServiceWithDataBaseAccess(new List<string>()
{
id
}
}

Well. It was obvious as in this example...

user an support: bekomme keine push-nachrichten.
support: darf ich ihre User-ID haben?
user an support: CHE-123.456.789
support an user: nein, das ist unserer Mehrwertsteuer-Nummer, wir brauchen ihre User-ID.
User an support: mann seid ihr umständlich, nehmt doch die Nummer und probiert es erstmal.

This is also why you should always take a backup:

client.ExecuteNonQuery($"delete from {CategoryTable} where category_id-{id}");

Sooo
Someone had that brilliant idea of changing user ID and group ID of root user in a server... Now root has no permissions.
How am I supposed to use that server now?

P.S: Don't ask me why they did that... I don't know and I didn't bother to ask.

My first dev project was written on Visual Basic 5. I think I wrote a keygen to generate serial numbers based on hardware ID.

C# is getting so fucking obfuscated with these null check inceptions. Found the following in my company's code base. Why did it take me and 3 other devs an hour to figure out how to write this if statement into a flowchart?

if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(a?.Id ?? b[0]?.Id))...😫😫😫

FYI: We figured it and also found some bugs with logic, but can you? I'll post our flowchart if ranters are interested.

So to add to the madness:
if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(a?.Id ?? (b?.Any() ? b[0].Id : null)))...🤯🤯🤯

I don't know if that image is incorrectly sized or serves as a mask for that ID

Spent an hour trying to figure out why my API request was returning unauthorized, turned out I had a trailing space after the ID (hard coded for testing purpose) T_T

Did you hear that David lost his ID in prague? Now we just have to call him Dav.

Boss: Oh, you configured it.

If somebody needs a project idea how about a really dumb JS Framework that allows you do basic DOM Manipulation, just like jQuery, directly in the elements class attribute.

For example this is how a document could look like:
<body class="init-hide-id-otherElement">
<button class="onclick-show-id-otherElement">
<h1 id="otherElement">Hello</h2>
</body>

What this does is first, at the body's init-* class, it hides the element with id otherElement at page load. Then, when you click the button, the element with id otherElement gets shown. Instead of *-id-* you could also use *-class-* which selects a class.
Basically the syntax is:
<event>-<action>-<id/class>-<the elements id/class>

Of course this has a lot of limitations, for example the selectors are very limited, but it would still be very cool!

Class: 'The Root Port is the one with the lowest ID. Therefore 1 is the Root Port'.
Test: 'Why is 'A' the Root Port?'
What!? Thats not a ID, thats not even a number.

CSS has no parent selectors... and the codebases' element I'm working on has no classes nor an id...
kill me

To find the process id of current shell instance use
$ ps -p $$

The only way to keep a community pure id to have a coomunity votr kick button!!!

So this is the scenario:

A Database Error Occurred: You must use the “set” method to update an entry

This is the code:

$this->db->where('id', $id);

return $this->db->update('contractors', ((array) $contractor));

And it gives me the error A Database Error Occurred: You must use the "set" method to update an entry.

Found this sticker online somewhere. Thought id share it with you guys. (BTW: I'm new here, loving devRant so far!)

classmates attend a paid workshop on WordPress for 2 days.... now everyone needs my github id for learning bootstrap!! (had used bootstrap in a project around 8-10 months ago)

The SIM card saga goes on:
To verify yourself, you need to go to some postal office and show them your ID and stuff. Not that this is complicated or anything (well actually, it is. Welcome to 2018 in Germany. We use more papers than potheads for the simplest shit), but you need to have a valid ID. Valid as in NOT EXPIRED. What the fuck. Why does my ID expire. Do I stop existing 3 years after getting it? What does it mean if it is, why is it culpable to have your ID expired. And who gets charged for having none, I mean obviously my ID doesn't identify me anymore?
What the hell man. I don't exist for 6 months now. Am I law free as not identifiable entity or how does it work?

And now the real question:
We got something called Bafög in Germany. Basically you get a bit money while studying. (I still work tho, I don't get really much from it.)
To apply for it, you need some tax number, which seemingly can be seen as a proof of my existence and my identity.
Why is this enough, why don't I need a valid ID there?

Germany is weird man. On the one hand government is all social and you get help if you need it but on the other hand you need to sacrifice 17 virigins to apply for said help..

How would you handle this:
You generate an id
You chech the db if it is not taken
If it is taken you generate a new one and check again.
You then save the new item with the generated id.

How do you ensure that between the time you checked and the time you added the item some other call did not try to also add an item with the same id.
Async mvc
C# and dotnet core with ef core

So one of our teacher gets a mail from her personal email id on her college id, saying, "Hi this is me". Goes to google and searches, " Hi this is me mail on gmail".

Fatuity is unreal.
