Installed Linux on an old windows laptop. This is my conversation 5 minutes ago...

Wife: "Have how you got internet?"
Me: "What do you mean, it has a wireless adapter built in?"
Wife: "But it's not Windows?"

WTF!!!

Me: "Pass my phone, this is going on devRant"
Wife: "Please no, not again"

User:"It's not working"
Me:"Have you turned it off and on again?"
User:"Yes"
Me: goes down there, system uptime is 360days...
"How do you turn it off?"
User:"by pressing the button on the monitor

Seriously, why? WHHHYYYY?

US-date-format sucks, every FUCKING TIME!

The only time I really notice is when the "month" is larger than 12:

05/13/2017
"5th of Dec... oh. Fuck. Not this shit again..."

(It makes no sense. Absolutely none.)

*at work* (fictional names)

Kevin (linux support engineer): Bob, could you come for a second to take a look at something?
Bob (senior linux engineer): *tiny voice from a corner behind a desk* bob is not available right now. Please try again later.
Kevin: Bob, please, just for a second!
Bob: bob is not available right now, please try again later.
Kevin: Boooooooooooooob, come heeeeereeeee
Bob: as said before, bob is not available right now, try again later.
Kevin: but booooooob, come oooooon.
Bob: it seems that you might have a hearing problem since bob is still not available.
Kevin: but booooohooooob, come heeeeeeeeeeereee
Bob: it seems like the person on the other side of this line might be retarded. Bob is not available right now.
Kevin: But boooohooooohooooooob come oooohooohooon, just for a seeehehecond *starts fake sobbing"
Bob: Bob is getting real tired of your shit. Leave bob alone.

😆

"Turn it off and on again."

Great for Wi-Fi routers and office appliances.

Life support, not so much.

Not again...

~Ring ring~
Me: Hello, how can i help you?
User: The system is not working
Me: It's because there is not electricity
User: Oh, thanks

10 seconds later
Me: Hello, how...
User: Hi, it's me again, i checked in the building and there is light in the hallway
Me: It's the emergency lights
User: Oh, thanks

One of the project manager came to one of our senior pro developer to say something. Before he even said anything the senior dev said:

Oh Fuck, not you again!

The pm politely left the area

Code not working.
Comment out code.
Slowly rewrite it bit by bit till it works again.
Check against commented code.
They're the same.
Wtf.

Seven hours wasted on this shit :/

Again, not related to programming.....

Not again..

Not getting paid on time AGAIN

Kiss your server goodbye until I'm paid i guess

I was just scrolling down a Facebook feed and a part of a picture with Linus Torvalds appeared.

- Hell no! Not again, 2016, just fuck off already!!

And then... "Happy birthday!"

My heart skipped a beat...

Friend: You are a programmer, right?
Me: Yes...
Friend: I have a idea how we can become rich
Me: *not again*
Me: Ok tell me
Friend: Look, it is almost like Facebook, but...

Every single time:

Me: CTRL+S
Sublime Text: Would you like to purchase a license now?
Me: Cancel
Me: CTRL+S (again)

Pretty sure the last one is not needed, but can't help!

Every developer dream:
- Cup of coffee
- Laptop
- Fast internet connection.

Really, I am able to not see the light again with this.

Fuck these movie people:
You run "sudo apt-get update.." and you say we've got the signal. Your f*cking signal! Am sure someone even typed the password for you. I update my system every 5 minutes I have got no signal. F*ck you again. I'm not watching the movie again. P*ssing me off.

I just found my favorite editor in the shelves for cleaning products and couldn't help but buy it 🙃 but I'm afraid that when I open it, I might not be able to ever close it again...

Interviewer: How will you solve the travelling salesman problem?

Me: *explains the solution on whiteboard*

Interviewer: It is slow. Can you do it in linear time at least?

Me: It is NP hard so it is not possible. For a restricted case, it may be possible

Interviewer: You are stupid. Do not apply again.

So this morning my girlfriend just woke up and pressed the hue "lights off" button over and over again and yelled: "The fuckin light switch does not work". Then she realized, that the light comes from the sun.

BSOU = Blue Screen Of Update

@No-one asked me to make a devRant related waifu but I went "why not if devRant WAS the waifu"

and this was born while waiting for compiling code (again)

So the other day my mother told me that her laptop does not start. Then we found out that she holds the "power" button so long that the laptop turned off again after a few seconds after the boot was initiated.

Often saying fuck it when I've got a project and I kind of really need to use git but I'm not good with it so I just go back to good old scp again 😅

Not again please

> le server suddenly stops working, no boot, no POST, no beeps, no video
*le frantic cursing on how perhaps that's why the fucking thing was only €60 🤬*
*takes out RAM*
> le server still not booting
*places RAM back without doing anything else*
> le server boots up again

🤔🤔🤔
Is this what they mean with things like "compile it again and somehow the compiler will not complain anymore after a while"?

just wanted to watch a movie on a flight, then this happened 🤦‍♂️

Flight assistant: "oh no, not again. I will reboot it for you."

"Updates were installed successfully"

No Windows, you got stuck at 83% and I had to hard reset you, we tried again and you got stuck at 91% so I had to hard reset you again... That is not what I call "successful" updates...

Not Again ! :/

Someone just offered me a position at Microsoft. Had to decline it, I'm not desperate enough to use Windows again.

4 week summer vacation over. Did not code any sideprojects and opened laptop only to watch netflix on vacation (Stranger Things ❤️). My liver will be pleased that its over. Tomorrow back to work, hopefully I remember how to code again 😜

if you are tired, so fucking tired you are not fast enough to double tap a rant.
tap.... *rant opens* fuck! back..
tap... tap *rant opens* *rant opens* what the... back back
tap..tap oh cmon! Not again! back back

Whohooo im a fucking genius!

Recruiter emails me about a role. I replied that I am not interested.

Two weeks later, the recruiter emails me again that my profile is not suitable for the role and they have saved my details and will contact me in future.

WTF. This is a very well reputed organization for that matter.

piece of code: *not working*
me: okay, i can try this again later
me: *comments it out*

4 hours later

me: omfg why are there so many comments??? :(

I am receiving this type of one liner mail more often from our clients.

"Application is not working properly."
Me:
Typed : explain properly idiot.
Deleted.
Typed Again: Sir, can you be more specific.
Sent.

Or

"Application is not running."
Me:
Typed : of course it can't run. Bloody hell.
Deleted.
Typed again: inconvenience caused deeply regretted. Our representative will contact you about this.
Sent.

Man i am tired.

The three indicators you have spent to much time on devRant while being on the toilet:

0: You reached the post from the last day.
1: Your legs fell asleep.
2: You forgor whether you have to wipe your ass or not.

Oh F***, not again!

Bob, every single time you "patch" the servers I run into issues, that you cannot fix.

Bob: "heuuu... I don't know anything about python or npm or any of that"

Then stop touching it!!!

Algorithms strike again :D

By the way I really much agree on both rants. People asking questions that they not even once typed into Google. Disturbing my workflow every 5 minutes...

Holy shit, wrote bitwarden an email and I shit you not, 15 seconds later I got a reply answering my question, not via bot but an actual human, then answered that email with a much more detailled question and got an answer yet again 25 seconds later, insane. 😶

Grumpy cat was in a lot of our internal products, on loading screens and what not, because why not? PM got pissed and said if he sees that fucking cat again blah blah blah. Grumpy cat is now summoned with a Konami code. Grumpy cat will never die.

Again will theses ever die. It's 2018 I should not keep seeing these computers.

Please, not again...

Not again please!

FUCK THEM FOR CHANGING MY PAYROLL.
MY GROSS RATE DROPPED 50$. AND THAT'S NOT WHAT WE AGREED ON. FUCK THAT COMPANY. I'LL JUST GO AWOL AND NEVER MENTION ANY OF THEIR COMPANY AGAIN.

That feeling when you could not solve a Problem for hours and it almost drives you crazy. Then the next day you look at it again and almost solve it instantly

Me at home with my sister.
She(with water jar): Roshan, I can't open up the jar, please help me.
Me(coding): Do not disturb me!! just install Java runtime environment (JRE) and open it again.

Keeping old and unused code blocks commented out and not deleting them immediately is the equivalent of leaving that bottle of soy sauce in the fridge even though you know very well that you won't use them ever again.

Thank you Android Studio for not auto-saving my 3 hours long work.Now I have to start again.

In one of our webinterfaces you could swap between users once you logged in by changing the user in the link.

Not intended but our support is using this "feature" frequently because then they don't have to log in again when helping another client so it's not planned to be fixed

Changed my username.
Can't change it again for 6 months.
Not sure if it was a good Idea.

The "internship story" chapter... is going to end today.
I do not know how I survived it, but I somehow did. Finally, I will be free again after 8 hours.

Can't believe I spent the past 2+ hours looking for; and customizing a color theme for my code editor (... again) when I have a shitload of stuff to do :(

I was building my iOS app in xcode, when I get an error. It was some swift library thing I did not recognize.
Then without changing anything:
Build again.
Error
Build again.
Error
Build again
No errors at all. Run my app and everything works perfectly.

User:
"Your application does not show notifies"

Test the app, search trough the logs, try and try again. Nothing.

Me:
"Did you disabled the notifies in Windows"

User:
"Yes! Uopps...."

Opening visual studio prompts me visual studio is not responding hit debug opens up visual studio then not responding again.

Monday morning: Opening eclipse project again. Everything is like i left it. "Main class could not be found."

What the fuck eclipse?

!rant

found this when wanting to check a notification, paused it multiple times, and my boss was: why does this keep on stopping!

Guess I better not do it again if I want to keep my job lol

Ranting about devRant on devRant:
devRant just got rid of my 3k story after I tried setting up the tags..
Yeah, not going to write that again today
ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

WHAT THE FUCK.
I have to deal with a fucking bug that crashes my app only when I'm NOT looking for it.
I investigate another bug? Then BAM, here it is and crashes the app. And I have to start over again find the right conditions to not trigger it again.
I investigate that bug? Nope, everything runs as smooth as velvet.

It's like a Heisenbug, but the cat is dead in the box AND pissing all over the lab at the same time.

Wanted to build a quick app, thought would be an hour tops. Lets use react native, why the fuck not.

Now after 4 hours im sitting here, wondering why the fuck did i have the great idea of ever touching rn again.

my boss praised me again, for just routine stuff, doing my job. I'm not even doing it too well. he said "oh but it's not about that, it's just that you're doing it". oh. honey... that's a really sad thing to say 😂

A new day, and a new "specification" written by the most unspecific architect ever. I don't understand what you want me to do. Use your words. Be SPECIFIC. As in SPECIFICation. Twat.

Sigh. This again.

We have Windows users complaining all the time about having their settings reset for each update. Then again, I don't remember default applications on Linux not breaking as soon as you are looking the other way. Why do I have to clarify that I don't want to open text files in LTSpice, or that nobody should ever want to launch first Wine, then Chromium for every PDF file?

We are soo sorry we missed you last Saturday night a bit before eleven.
We will try again to deliver your parcel, another day (or night).

Maybe. Maybe not.

Sigh..... not again

Sometimes it feels like I'm not as passionate towards coding as I was before. Seeing bright-eyed juniors with an unquenchable thirst for knowledge makes me wish I could feel the same again. I mean I still like it and all, but it's just not the same.

Just two more weeks until I'm at full productivity again... Typing with this thing on is not very easy!

That feeling of wanting to walk away from coding forever and not having a single thing to do with it ever again, but also having nothing else you can do and a powerful need to eat and have shelter.

Customer: can you fix my flashdrive? I think it's corrupted or something.

Me: sure no problem

Client: we are using Scrum. Next week we have sprint review organized by the project manager.
Me: it’s not Scrum.
Client: in the next sprint we work on a mockup not releasable in production.
Me: it’s not Scrum.
Client: sprint backlog is changed again, at the end we must do everything that is written in the contract with that fixed amount of money.
Me: definitely not Scrum.
Client: we are using Scrum.
Me: Ok.

Why doesn't spoj tell you about the username format or its availability before submitting the form! 😑 Had to again and again prove ,that I am not a robot, because of this !! Too many times.
And then this (the image) 🤣

Boss: "What have you told the client yesterday?"

Me: "Project progression and..... money?"

Boss: "Don't do that again. We will deal with them about that later, just tell them something technical that they will not understand."

Me: "??W????T?????F???"

Did a nasty thing in prod...

Very nasty.

So nasty even default graph tells me something about going yolo in prod.

Maybe it's weed. But feels like that graph tells me not to trry this shit ever again.

And 1&1 again... I tried to create a new database... 1&1: “the password is to long. Please choose a password that is not longer than 16 characters.” 🙃

Failure is not the problem.

Problem is not admitting and accepting that you failed.

Problem is not learning from your mistakes.

Problem is causing the same damage over and over again.

What's worsens the situation is defending the dumb act.

If you cannot handle failure then not only you stagnate your growth, but you also negatively affect people around you.

Mistakes make you perfect only when you fix them.

Could not live anymore without SSD, I’m running vagrant up since 5pm and I believe that I’ll not sleep before 3am (again)...

Just disassembled my iPhone. Actually, I just wanted to attach the battery again, because the adhesive strips do not hold so tight since the battery exchange. But then... 😁

Oh dear god, not again!

Why, why can't we start the week on a different day?

In my day off I was eager to try overclocking in my pc and this is how it went:

- Fucked up overclocking parameters for cpu and ram speed.

- BIOS is broken, had to take out gpu to do a reset taking out the bios battery.

- BIOS is up again, default values loaded, bla bla

- Did not try to fuck off anymoar with overclocking, just kept playing star wars and went to sleep safe and sound like a baby.

- Gotta work now. docker does not start, closes itself after tried to start, docker panic, I panic, tried to uninstall, tried to update. nothing works

- Then I remember bios default values leaves virtualization off. enables it again, docker still not working. I panic again, restarted pc like 10 times between disabling/enabling hyper-v in windows.

- Docker dies. not gonna change my overclock options again. silly me 🤦‍♂️

For the first time I tried to use WordPress. I spent almost 30mins. Now I decided I should not use that again in my life. Fuck WordPress.

Not a C programmer. Recently I did some things in C again recently and now I finally figured out something that bothered me for nearly a decade now.

-Wall has nothing to do with walls. It enables all warnings.

-Are you programmer?
-maybe?
-can you do something for me?
-can I?
-I need you to hack this Face..
-Not again...

Not planning for it at all, then see the service gain traction and traffic explodes through the roof.

Not gonna do that mistake again!

FUCKING WINDOWS DECIDES TO UPDATE WHEN I HAVE 6 PROGRAMS OPEN AND NOT EVEN SAVED EVERYTHING.

10+ chrome tabs with research pages that are irrecoverable.

That when I leave for a couple of minutes to take a brake. I'm not even notified beforehand.

I'm fine tho which is nice. Gonna cry and sleep now to work hard again tomorrow.

switched from windows 10 to kubuntu 18.10 (yes it's not arch or gentoo) last week, after the previous system crashed and burned

I had no idea, my laptop can be so fast and work almost entirely without a fan. Live is beautiful again!

"curl : The response content cannot be parsed because the Internet Explorer engine is not available, or Internet Explorer's first-launch configuration is not complete. Specify the UseBasicParsing parameter and try again."

Why the flying fuck do i have to configure some BS in internet explorer to use curl in Powershell? I thought IE was finaly dying, but nope!

pushing sensitive data to GitHub repo...not realising for days...and then going through the painful process of removing it again 😑

So I just recently joined stackoverflow. Spent some time time and decided I should log out considering I logged in at work. Could not find the fucking logout/sign out button. Even after googling. Had to go to the source code and find the logout link which is hidden in the page.

Looks like it's the new vim.

Not even an algo strikes again moment; it's sorted to recent 😂😂

!devButAlsoKindaIsDev

Alright, time to do some explanation.

TL;DR: JavaScript is a fucking nightmare. May god help every web developer out there. Essentially, I was gone because of JavaScript.

Q: where tf are you bruh
A: in your mo-uhhhhh alright, so I was chosen to be the main developer for an interactive promotional video for my school (every year the school holds something called an open day, where kids from 8th grade can come to the school and have a tour in the school first hand. Because of the coronavirus (just gonna call it “the rona” from here) this is now impossible so we are losing the interest and the first impressions so the school decided to make an interactive virtual one). They asked me if I want to do it and I said yes.

Boy, was that ever a mistake... (hint: it was a huge mistake)

So the guy who talked to me and asked if I wanted to do this was my grade’s manager, and he gave me the phone number of my PM. So we talked and stuff, and then this happened: (bruh = PM)

bruh: I’ll send you the API and documentation for the thing that we are working with! They have lots of examples and stuff and they’re Israeli too!

Me: Okay! What language are we talking about here?

bruh: JavaScript.

Me: (questioning life choices) Okay!

I didn’t write any JavaScript for the last 3 years or so. It had to be done because I promised and I can’t let down people who count at me and ask me to show where I shine.

So, what was the objective for me? Build a Firebase client that sends the user’s score and choices to Firestore after he chooses something in the interactive video (for example, go to chemistry or go to physics) while learning JavaScmeme (ECMEMEScript) as I go.

Deadline? A week and a half.

After working almost 12 hours a fucking day, I made it work. Sorta. In order to reconcile with small exceptions and edge cases in the interactive video, I had to hard-code some IDs in the code. I had no choice, since I couldn’t allow myself to spend more and more time to make my code more dynamic than it was because I simply didn’t have time. The code absolutely STINKS but it works.

Today is the day where we (aim) to finish all of the cosmetic things that we need to fix. All of them are non-essential for everything to work, but we want to make this thing presentable because we want to put this on the school’s website.

CONCLUSION:

JavaScript is literal shit. Dynamic weakly-typed languages are cursed AF and need to die in a fire.

I'm too broke rn, so can all my tech devices not act up and cooperate until I have some disposable income again?
I'd appreciate that lots.
Cheers.

Xcode: Xcode is the perfect place to make Apple Watch apps!
Apple Docs: literally nothing not even a single fucking useless piece of information
Xcode again: no

Now on most websites I'm not one to want likes, normally I couldn't care.

But on this website, one single thing makes me want lots of likes.
Is it stickers? Nope.
Maybe it's that sweet stress ball? Try again!
Just want all that attention? Not for me.

I just really want my avatar to sit on an exercise ball.

Finally got my printer up again

Not letting work stress stop me from enjoying my hobbies anymore

Here go again.

Java isn't Javascript...

An IT recruiter company... Well... Not that IT

So my boss is telling me they plan on moving away from Qt. The value proposition is just not there anymore. Maybe I will learn to be a C++ programmer again, and not a Qt programmer. This will be interesting the next few months.

Unlearn what you have learned.

Me being me:

*Me thinking about something*
*Unlocks phone*
*Goes to DevRant*
*Scrolls without reading*
TrollBrain: this is not DevRant
*Closes DevRant and opens it again*
... Wait what?

Them blank moments :/

In a few hours, I will know if my PC is going to be finally working again (or if not). Wish me luck!

3 weeks ago started to play diablo 2 again.
Just realised it's not a 3D game .
Progammers had done a brilliant job !

So I'm not one to show off something buuuuuuut, I'm a programmer and can barely draw a straight line let alone do pixel art, but I decided fuck it; let's try again and considering the left figure was the first compared to the right being the 10th, I'd say that's not to fucking bad :-D

Archlinux.org went down just now for probably not only me. Guess who was in the middle of setting up his system again

Features suggestions:
1. When we type @ in the comment section it'll be nice to have autosuggest of users as we type. This will help not closing the comment and checking the spelling again and again.
2. Search available on basis of tags. Type in a tag you want to search about and get all rants/questions with that tag.

I'm dong it again:
Just learning Python to teach it to someone else.

P.s. I always knew that my hatred of Python was not out of my mere ignorance.

It only takes one time of not having version control to never run that risk again.

Scenario A:
Your code is working. You run again, now it's not working.

Scenario B:
Works on production. Next day it doesn't.

It is nothing you just experienced alternate universe. You probably with your manager temporarily jumped into another timeline where your code is not working.

Next time it happens tell your manager it's not your fault.

Eureka!

The legacy-PHP-project-to-pay-my-future-trip strikes again.

WHY NOT !empty($var) OMGGGGGGG

Me: Ugh i want to try a hackintosh again but all my SSD's are in my PC already and its not worth spending $100 for a small one...

*Leans back in chair literally knocking 3 SSD's off my shelf*

Got a new laptop, but it was not properly working, so while waiting for it to get replaced, I have to use the old one again.

Feels like the CPU is a freaking potato!

aight boys i'm doing it
i'm switching to Linux full-time

no i'm not using arch or arch-based, i lost my arch bootdisk and i'm not spending another 100hrs on making it work again

My mom keeps giving me stick about not eating properly..

How can you eat when your app crashes so bad that you entertain the thought of starting over again?

not sure if this totally classifies as a rant, but here goes:

so my Pi is giving a lot of problems. can't install software, keep getting weird error messages. so I try DD a new image onto the card. does not work at all. tried on three different machines :D
next I try run rm -rf /
it's obviously totally fucked. nothing works. pull the plug and plug it in again to see what happens.... it boots up again :D all the commands are back. no files are gone.

and that's when I was like fuck this and I returned the sd card :D

I must be a madman.

Trying to log in to appDynamics. enter account name, hit ENTER -- <...>/appdynamics.com/controller/undefined, 404: Page not found.

Go back, do that again -- same result

Go back, ctrl+F5, try again -- same result.

So in the end I did 17 or 19 back-retry attempts in a row and the last one DID log me in.

Peachy.

My team is full of unexperienced coworkers. Some are students (not computer science), some just finished their bachelor but again not in computer science or something related. It is absolutely ok if there are unexperienced coworkers, but that's too many and all I do is teaching the basics of programming.

we need you to implement some front end components but design department is not following their own standards, and changing the fucking mockup, so now you have to change your shit again

like fuck, how hard can it fucking be to hand me the locked in design and ill make it, i dont wanna have to muck this shit up and fight css again

Me: Bluetooth not connecting to headphones, turn off and on again

Bluetooth mouse: Bluetooth is off, now what you want me to do?

I wish this was a joke... Yes, I am that stupid.

DevRant algo strikes again. This time with printer rage (or not?)

Not adding input validation to that one page that time.

I knew my users were bad. I knew they'd fuck up. But I trusted the spec I trusted them.

Never again.

Not sure if I love or hate haskell... It's awesome, but then again the syntax is so fucking confusing...

"Help" messages that are only shown once are not so helphul.

Some software and websites have help pop-ups and tooltips that are only displayed on the first use and then never again. There is no option to show it again.

That is a terrible idea, because the user might want to see it again as a reminder.

Showing something to the user only once means expecting the user to memorize it all at once.

A wise man once said.

A little learning is a dangerous thing;
drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring:
there shallow draughts intoxicate the brain,
and drinking largely sobers us again.

Ever finish a project, feel fulfilled for a hot minute, then feel like you're still not as good as you thought you were and instantly start hacking away again?

This has been my cycle for the past 2 months.

Fuck, the voucher I want to redeem failed and it is not usable again. And now I don't know what DB error might have happened 🤔

An old friend just texted me and asked me to hack Facebook. Again.

FUCK OFF. I'm not a fucking work-horse, I'm not a slave, and I'm not fucking with something as meaningless and stupid as FB.

Go hack your way into his neck with an axe if you want to, I'll even help, but fuck messing with their social life. Go for the disease, not the symptoms.

someone please motivate me to code again.

since one month i did nothing but digital art/youtube watching/maths/chatting but i did not code.
the main reason being that all my projects have bugs currently :/

Why are programmers not allowed in the Intensive Care Unit?

Because they like to turn stuff off and on again

Worst interview was when I attended interview for the position of PHP and the interviewer started grinding me with C++ questions starting with STLs. Could not answer most of them, interviewer said to get my act together and try again after 3 months. Nope not gonna happen!

Just wanted to root my phone again.
My carrier had an update but unrooting did not help to get it installed.

What it did though, was restoring my recovery partition.

So booting my phone in recovery mode, saying twice that I want to reset my phone (just the layer before booting into recovery).
Aaand... It actually erased. 😮

So having little sleep tonight because I need to install all my necessary apps again.

I’m over dating. Never again. Not worth risk.

After only using Linux for some weeks I decided to start my mac again.

Half of the programs didn't work anymore, I shit you not

So.. Google Analytics is not working..

Again..

Got tired of Windows 10 giving me BSODs

Tried fixing it (previous rant)

Decided to get rid of it

Purged Windows 10 along with Mint for good

Booted Solus (It's awesome)

Installing..

?

Maybe ISO got corrupted

Downloaded ISO again (painfully slowly)

Installing...

Success!

Booted to Login screen

Incorrect username/password (shit)

Tried again x times (absolutely correct username and password, I'm sure)

Doesn't work

Booted from the same USB again

Format and Install (again)

Installing..

Installation failed - Input/Output error(5)

:(

I'm not sure what's going wrong here..

My laptop is soulless right now..

So some notification types are broken again (at least ++ notifs are not), ++ counts don't update again, search finds next to nothing, and the weekly doesn't work properly either (I saw wk288 topic once but can't find it anywhere now).

It still works better than the thing I'm currently dealing with.

Time to reinstall Windows and Linux again... 😔

Linux: Why not?
Windows: It's broken.

My Life in a nutshell
[ CMD + S ]
[ CMD + TAB ]
[ CMD + R ]
( Oh crap! not again 😤)
[ CMD + TAB ]
console.log( 'im here');
[ CMD + S ]
and on and on and on....

NOT AGAIN ...
NOT AGAIN ...

once again your daily reminder that software is no exception: it's about how you appear and talk, not the actual work you get done or competance

this is why i'm not worried by technology or aRtiFiciAl InTeLLiGenCE taking over - there is so much bullshit politics and idiot "emotional" choices that in fact rule the career / industrial environment, not actual consideration of improving workflows or efficiency

Own it. Bend it to your will. Make it better or sunset it and build it again. But don’t be a wet noodle and say “I’m just following orders”. You give the orders, you own it.

I need some time off. Just had this convo with a dev-manager about an 'issue' with our system change mgmt calendar (Blazor) app.

K: "In the system drop-down, it's not filtering when I type."
Me: "Let me check <I attempt to reproduce>, yep, not working. Do you get the same error? Looks like duplicate data from the database is causing a problem."
<this is over MS Teams, about 5 minutes go by with no response, then>
K: "No error, its not working."
<I find the bad data, delete it, TADA, the filtering is working again>
Me: "The filtering is working again, at least for me. You sure you didn't see an error?"
<wait 5 minutes again>
K: "No, no error."
Me: "You didn't see a little red banner at the bottom and in all caps..ERROR"
<send him a screen-shot of the error I still had in another tab>
K: "Yes, I saw that one, but no other errors. Filtering is working again. Thanks"

If you were forced to not use an electronic device for programming purposes ever again, what would your job be?

For example, I'd study medicine and try to become a surgeon.

Followed the angular js tutorial until routing section. Then gave up.

It's not for me. Maybe I'll try again in a few weeks.

Why would you send me an email that "the opening is not longer available" when you're going to list the job again 3 more times in the same month??

At least be honest! i'm a big boy, i can handle it.

Boss says: Why is our email not working get it to work again.

Me: What the fuck? Only because I am the computer guy does not mean I can make wine out of water.

At first I was like "meh.. SASS is not really that different from css really.. maybe this wont even help any.."
But now I'm like "dude holy shit please never let me work without SASS/SCSS again!" :D

I JUST typed a huge-ass happy post on LinkedIn and right after I hit the "Post" button, my feed got refreshed and there was no sign of my post getting published... Wtf 😡
NOT typing it all again. Nope.

WTF Is wrong with Kotlin! Every fucking time I upgrade its Android Studio plugin i receive loads of errors about: Type mismatch: inferred type is FragmentActivity? but FragmentActivity was expected

for fucks sake bitch! Why the hell you keep on switching from optional to non optional on every fucking update, my commit history is full of this type of fixes -_-

So I decided to download devrant again and the first thing in doing is deselecting the fucking memes. thats not what im here for

Urghhhhhh not Java again!

(uni project wants a java client for a section. Kill me plz.)

So this is the case I have not coded in a long while and was actually starting to miss it. I was LITRALLY considiring starting to code again, then i went on devrant and read about two rants and you know what? Im good i dont wanna start code again

Me: RESOLVED....again.

Tester: Well not working for me....REOPENED....again.

So there are a few bugs with IDEA and qwertz keyboards, namely there are combos on @ { < keys (you know, not that i would use those in java). After setting it to qwerty, manually deleting every shortcut and restarting the whole damn universe, still nothing. Very useful, 10/10, would use again.

Except not.

I can't help but smirk when my company gets a project that requires knowledge on something I warned them about over half a year ago. This happens regularly but every time we have to get that knowledge during the project, costing the customer additional money.

When will management learn that training your employees will benefit them :(

If I have to write that web component again just because “well I think this technology will be better” I’m going freak out...

when viewing a profile and scrolled down enough to hide the avatar and the user description, it does not show up back again when scrolled up... is it a bug or a feature? 😂 @dfox

I was 4 I think. Managed to reconfigure the IP and DNS settings and got the internet working again (it was a dial-up, in 2002). My entire family thought I was a prodigy of sorts (I am not).

Now all I do is restart the wifi if it's not working.

I HATE it when client does not know what he wants. Removed a functionality only to be added back again with all the ripples going through the code¡¡¡¡¡

ARGH¡¡¡¡¡¡ FUCK ME

Where's my exclamation mark u shitty SwiftKey keyboard¿¿¿¿

You wanna know if you are a real developer?
Google "string" and see if you get as first result underwear or not.
Try "DD" and see if you get again some underwear results or a ubuntu wiki article about "the great data destroyer" ;)

That moment when you try several days to get the code to behave like you want and at a random moment everything suddenly works....

Better not to touch it (the code) anymore before it breaks again...

Best thing about being a dev?

Going on Roblox and some kid claims he was a hacker, then you tell him why he isn't and does not know any of the tech terms you use. Then again why am I playing roblox

Oh, you've found a work around for your browser caching? No problem, here's DNS caching so you can fuck with your code again... and not know what the issue is

~ Sincerely, ISP

Ok so I'm am a black end kind of guy and have had to deal with making our site again and again and again and fu#@ing again.

Who the hell thought up using SVG icons. My first look at it today and I'm not sure if I hate it or love it. Any thoughts?

One of the barriers to professional software development is OCD.

Is this code right? No, fix. Wait, no, still not right.
Did I just commit this? Check again.. did jira reload properly? Wait, checking again, did I commit this? Checking. Did I commit this? Checking. Is my mind fooling me about committing this? Checking.

while(true){
goCrazy();
}

Yay Google + leaked info!!
New old news again :P

Come on people if you want something to be safe you DO NOT I repeat DO NOT send it to someone else's computer. That's it. Fuck firewalls fuck av fuck it all.

Working with Swift & Kotlin again, feels good to work with them, although I did enjoy working with Typescript, but React Native is just not fun to work with ....

The ability to find a cushy job with comfortable pay, benefits, and security. I don't want much, I just want to not have to need much ever again.

I'm here again :)

After some months of sporadically reading your posts, but not in the mood for answer or say anything.

Nice to feel encouraged enough to became active here again. :)

Me (waiting for a torrent download): this is gonna take a while. [ISP] is being slow again.
GF: Why not just force download it?

I said do fucking not include log files in the git repository! I have removed them and added them to the gitignore and there are they again...

Google search dark mode is available in some of my browser profiles but not others. A/B testing time again, I guess.

I told my client i cannot do every shitty thing you say and change it again and again whenever your mood swings and it wastes lot of time doing unwanted things even if you pay me.

I m not guilty.

If I ever want to phish people at an enterprise I would send the email as the yearly infosec training course.

It happened again:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object

So here we are again:

Today, what would be the proper definition of a "fullstack developer"? What stack is required? Feels like PHP ain't there not more...

crap... was about to curse Windows for randomly rebooting again to install some noncritical update...

But guess I'm not allowed to do that anymore...

!rant

With how fast things are improving in the information age, there's one thing I might not ever hear again.

"(Name of family member) get off the phone I am using the internet!!"

Feeling reminiscnt.

What's yours?

Me, at 8 am: The university exams are over, and I'm gonna start programming again. It's great to deal with tasks that are not as annoying as studying!

11 am:

Just reinstalled my work machine and decided to customize Unity a bit....
Aaaand I'm reinstalling again..

Ended up not being able to login with three screens, two worked fine though..

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wrote a detailed spec, costed and agreed. Meanwhile client and designer agree upon half baked designs that only vaguely resemble the spec. Don't worry though, I have balls. I'm not a yes man. Will put them both straight (again) on how the fuck we do things if it involves me, incompetent twats. Will soon be calling the shots again. Ha ha, it's either that or I fucking walk.
