Took me a few good seconds to understand "it's true. It's lying".

@irene
Hello Irene, we are sad to inform you you did not meet the programmer qualifications this year.

You will have to sign up for the next one which is due next year.

Best regards,
Some bored moron

But I work with C, C++, C# and Java. What does that say about my facial hair?

I thought it was a known thing. Huh.

You should lose hope in -your- college. Not colleges entirely.

In my country such a thing would never happen. Every professor is someone who decided to quit the industry and teach after having quite a few years of experience.

I love how you can request something by weight.

"I want 77.89 kilos of ladders."
"But each ladder is exactly 10 kg.. oh nvm, I'll find a way"

There is a website for shows and movies which pops up a window saying you have to log in. A co-worker was next to me when I erased the line from the inspector and he was like "WOOOOOOOW YOURE SO AWESOME"

Been there, done that.

That's why I don't move a finger until I know the whole picture.

Why Capitalize Every Single Word?

Knees weak, arms spaghetti

Well, yes and no.

This is plain awesome.
Laughed from the first sentence all the way to the last one, which was a bit weird since I'm on the train, thank you very much.

I'm a little bit of them all

Electronics Engineer, since I'm already working in the field, but my ideal work is being a developer.

While I do agree and support this, sometimes I have to do some non-PC related work and I run into some issue, so I call the IT to fix it while I'm off the PC.

You've just earned a ++, my friend.

Note: read the first rant in the attached image.

Around 4,000 USD a month for the first 3 years (completely lacking formal experience)

For scale:
A loaf of bread costs 1.5 USD

Just find a similar plug charger that supplies the same amount of voltage and a high enough amount of current. No biggie.

What the hell with this arguing.

Use whatever standard the current project requires. No one said you have to like it.

I personally prefer a 4-space TAB, but will use whatever format that is being used in the current project.

Gmail - once a month, maybe
Work mail - every 15 min a quick look
FB - non-existent
LinkedIn - non-existent
WhatsApp - by notification

What the hell?

In my country it's around 4000 - 6000$

You mean
0. Wet hair
1. Apply shampoo
..
..

More engineer than programmer but sure.

I believe the whole point isn't to use a "third party" piece of code.

I can write my own C function that'll just be
Swap(a, b);
Which is basically what the standard Python library did, and gave you it as a standard, but behind the scenes, it was very likely done the very same way it was done here in C.

You mean Windows -5.
Because they'll fuck up the count again and somehow get to a negative number.

Across the country, try across the world.. :(

Octal and Decimal where most people see October and December.

31 in Octal is 25 in Decimal, but most people read it as 31st of October is 25th of December. Or so I believe.
@d3vcho

This is so true for so many things.

Every time I need to order something for work, using their funds, I have to convince the (I don't know the name for it in English so imma just call it "purchases department") purchases department why I need it and why specifically it and not something like it.

Once the first attempt fails I begin throwing phrases at them and they get all like "Uh.. o..OK now I understand".

I fucking love the feeling.

@Dacexi
I'm fully aware, my point was that most people do not even know of the concept "kibibyte".

@Dacexi is correct.
The confusion of 1024 or 1000 is not because there are two definitions for kilobyte, it's because there are kibibytes which most people don't know by name.
