Screw you, NuGet.

Have you ever applied for a job and then spiraled after a few days of not hearing anything back?

Me too! 🙄😭😭😭

My proudness accomplishment?

My relationship with my sibling

If you want a terrifying name for your metal band, don't call it “Whispers from the Abyss of Despair” or “Through the Veil of Darkness and Desolation”.

Call it “Surgery Robot From Temu”.

Is there a hidden joke in the fact that stand up meetings/daily stand-ups share the same word root with stand up comedy? It would seem the creators of that pointless activity thought it naughty/mischievous, if not a humorous giveaway that those gatherings are more for fun, entertainment, a joke, and a platform for product managers to not feel left out from the development process

You only appreciate the present when it becomes the past.

I opened the backlog today and found a bug assigned to me.

the bug basically describing that the images are not loading on the app, I take one look at the response and find the images url are sent as ip address.

I mention this to the tester and with a straight face they say "well why is it working on my laptop?" the laptop that's connected to their company's network.

god why am I even doing this.

How you spend your days is how you spend your life.

The kind of testers I'm dealing w/ right now:

Until fairly recently, they thought it was a good idea to keep retesting stale && untouched bug reports to see whether an issue is still present, then leave a comment.

Imagine being assigned as a watcher to a report, but keep seeing comments made by testers akin to:

- version 1: issue is still present.
- version 2: issue is still present.
- version 3: issue is still present.
- version 4: issue is still present.

Which was true for some 90-95% of the cases.

How retarded does a person have to be to think that this is a good idea?

I say it's a great way to piss somebody off.

Reminds me of movies w/ scenes where there is this annoying brat in the back seat of a car asking 'Are we there, yet?' over && over again.

Once a report is up, just be fucking patient && wait until someone replies!

Has anyone else started a new job with the promise of interesting work, just to end up spending all their time writing e2e tests for crap code written 5 years ago by a contractor who clearly couldn't give 2 shits?

Oh, I found the old Minecraft-world that I had together with a few ones from Devrant

ANGRY-CLIENT still here? :D

This $1 mofo created more engineers than Harvard or Stanford.

That feeling you get when you write code so complicated, that a few weeks later, even with tutorial-level documentation, you don't know whats going on, so you just rewrite from scratch.

Yeah that just happened to me.

No time for deep work to re-grok what the fuck I was working toward, so I just rewrote the core of it to relearn the entire process.

Had comments, documentation, step-by-steps. Still the ability to understand and reason about it noped-the-fuck-out of the building apparently.

Might have had something to do with zero sleep three days in a row and too much red bull.

Sleep-deprived me operates on a whole different plane of existence.

Trust your guts!

Just remember that your gut is designed to take the most tastey things and turn it into shit.

Funny how clients demand for pixel perfection on apps when they took their sweet time on vacations.

Oh well, let's do it 💪

How the fuck did the engineers at Tiktok pull off the American 'ban' so seamlessly. Take it down and then put it back with little loss to functionality.

How do you think they accomplished that with so many accounts.

Anyone works there can comment?

I need to finally learn CMAKE at some point
I've been using make for many years now and it's good enough for me so I never bother with trying CMAKE but I can't be lazy forever

Say what you want about spaghetti code written by either you yourself or other people, dealing with it is a massive requirement for becoming a dev.

Android studio gradle nightmares, cli not picking active jdk, intellij maven horrorshow, vscode being the nexus of perdition itself. When I'm dead and gone, scatter my ashes over sublime text. NEVER encountered a headache, ever. The setting for autosave is one forum visit away. 1000s of utilities at my fingertips, with shortcuts, not silly plugins. Neither hangs nor fusses irrespective of how many windows, projects, tabs I've got open. Gargantuan code real estate despite having a file panel and file preview. The only guys who got monokai right. Can open random editors and fill them with notes without first saving. A more intuitive vcs gui than even github desktop. More lightweight to download than an beep.ogg. Never lags cuz it wants to be powered by a wind turbine. It's free. Literally all the sorrows that terrorise my dev in its peers, all gone

Yes, it's not "integrated" to my de, in the sense that its intellisense is a glorified autocomplete for existing tokens. I guess, tradeoffs must be made. If you know the language well enough not to grope handheld by the ide, or in dynamic typed languages where red, squiggly lines will not bring your software down to its knees, it should be head and shoulders above those conartistes
