Why not have a game of DevSecOpoly? Doing DevOps and Security right!

Fake bug fix

Dear dfox,

Thank you for not making your app completely change layouts and screw up scrolling whenever we turn on our sides when reading rants in bed, unlike nearly every mobile web browser out there. We all really appreciate it.

After 2 years of Debian this feels just wrong.

Martin Ruter King jr. makes powerful speeches.

Got new key caps for my keyboard, now I'm motivated to code!!

Just discovered a terminal replacement for windows... And its fine as hell.
It's called cmder and it's got tons and I mean TONS of options to make it perfect for you!

If that strip ever works on Linux I'll eat my hat.

Not sure if those are real song names or Spotify is trolling me when I try to trigger a "no results" UI in my app.

I'm just gonna say it.

Microsoft Edge is actually pretty good

Add bugs to fix them later??

I put an Easter egg into a product, that if you enter the string "final countdown" into the stock code search field, it plays a YouTube vid of Europe's "The Final Countdown", in a hidden div. It's an in-joke for a few people in the company.

A well meaning maintainer with no sense of humour or judgement takes over and goes on the warpath against any hardcoded strings. The secret code gets moved into a config file.

A third developer changes the deployment script so that it clears any configs that aren't explicitly set in the deployment settings.

So the secret code is now "".

Literally every PC in the stock buying department is now blaring out "The Final Countdown" at top volume.

...Except none of them have speakers, so it remains this way for over a year and two more changes of maintainer.

I just noticed this afternoon and quietly re-hardcoded the string. The buying dept.'s PCs will silently sing no more.

Fuck. Pseudo.

Are you interested in a devRant hackathon? If so, please let me know what you'd like to see us do/what you would want to get out of it. There's lots of directions we could go, but I want to get as much feedback as we can from the community to try to figure out what would be the most fun and inclusive. Thanks!

PHP "str_pad" because it doesn't require a library, that would cause chaos when such a library is removed.

For a developers ranting social media platforms, it sure seems strange that we can't format code snippets... 🤔

At least something like `foo(bar){}` would be awesome!

Saw an add on my fb feed:
"We will make you a programmer in 6 weeks" - course in programming.

6 f*king weeks! I've been studying 5 years, wrote down butt loads of code, debugged billions of bugs, read hundreds pages of documentation and I wouldn't call my self a full developed programmer.

But hey, those fu*kers will make you a programmer in 6 weeks!

I just saw the largest lan port kek

Those naughty monkeys

Found in the source code of a site. Interesting.

The reality of Android hobby projects:
First 25min of each coding session goes to updating Android studio and plugins...

Security

Happens all the time.

No Jack!

A group of wolves is called a pack.

A group of crows is called a murder.

A group of developers is called a merge conflict. :|

Me: Sigh...
