My client uses a very old hosting company that cannot even support php 5.2. We urge him to switch to IBM softlayer.

My Client: I am afraid that your hosting company(IBM) will close one day.

Me: ... What?

This sums up so many arguments I've had with clients about design requests!

Always remember to update your resume -before- you need it.

This is just sad

To understand what recursion is, you must first understand recursion.

Things used to be simple🤔

Citizens are advised not to use encryption as decrypting data takes too​ much time and is costly.
Please spread awareness and save money.

Thank you for Cooperating, have a nice day :)

Following the trend..

Taking it to the next level.

Just a normal day on devland

420 points in 9 days, guess I am better at ranting about it than writing codes.

WiFi down? Can't find the right cable? Bluetooth to the rescue!

Apparently, as a front end developer, I do not need a Creative Cloud license anymore. I will have to rely on the Designers to cut up all my assets.
I could barely hold a straight face while I posted this rant.

Just bought a BEST BUDDY for a programmer ---- a very good noise cancelling HEADPHONES...🎧🎧

Last week my company fired 4 people (on top of 15 more over the past few months). This week they silently pushed a change to all of our machines that changed our wallpapers. The wallpaper was a picture of someone in upper management staring at you with wide eyes.

They claimed it was a joke or something but the office didn't see it that way. At best it was incredibly tone deaf and stupid, at worst it was a way to tell employees that they are always watching.

I have no idea how management could be that fucking out of touch.

Me. Every morning.

Headphones, because working while your partner burn and scream in the hell of the bugs they caused is distracting

So was first day at new job ... Boss takes me around meeting everyone. One employee stuck editing file by typing in new records data, calls boss for help.

Boss to me: "I like to get handsy with data from time to time. "
*me smiling, watch how he copies and paste the new records*
ME to boss:"why don't you just write the script to update all the records?"
Boss:"I don't trust the automation of input. "
Me:" what about human error?"
*crowd of other employees gather around awaiting answer*
Boss:"we include margin of errors in our disclaimer to the client... "
*He hears himself*
Boss:"... and we bill by the hour why would we work faster for less money?"

*me grinning, going to remember that line next time I need extension of deadline*

Me*murmurs*:" Master has presented dobby with a sock"
*Girl in next cubicle snickers clearly caught the reference "

Going to love it here.

1. Make a plan
2. Execute the plan
3. Expect the plan to go horribly wrong
4. Improvise

Truest words to come out of the DC (or any) universe!!!

I get so damn angry when people treat me like tech support.that I made my WhatsApp profile picture the following

JetBrains IDEs hands down. These folks know what devs need.

Lollll

Coffee. No other tool does as much for my productivity.

Rubber ducky.

Got a new job as devops.
Got brand new thinkpad on day 0, it was waiting for me out of the interview room.

I think I'll like it here 😃

Only thing I'm thinking about is if I should continue with doing devops/sysadmin or go back to programming...

The post button should say "Commit"

I sometimes look at the code of the guy who had my job before me and I think.

Delete it.
Delete it all.
Delete it with fire.
Use the developer as kindling so it never happens again.

This app is basically silicon valley twitter

When your Boss is a programmer & humorous at the same time... :/

Do you ever see someone's great work online and the amount of accomplishments he had, and see your confidence drop? At the same time, it's inspiring.
