@Kryptic0 I'll take a look - thanks :)

Why is this !rant ?

@vertti or for short: What do you mean by 'other tech'?

Ok - now I need your help. I built a web application using PHP, MySql and so on. But there is this feeling in my head that PHP is... The old man of server side http programming languages.

Now I thought about switching to ruby on rails... But now you're telling me that it isn't... That good?

So what's good? What language to you prefer?

@dev0urer the clackyness might sound good but I don't want anyone to hear it for hours when talking in Discord... So... Nope :/

But (as far as I can tell from the pic) your keyboard looks great ... So maybe I just need to change the O-Rings like @tylerleonhardt said...

I don't quite get why mechanical keyboards are that awesome. In my opinion, the disadvantages of mechanical keyboards outweighs advantages.

My 'perfect' keyboard should...

- be silent
- have a number pad
- have not too flat and not too high keys
- have customizable LEDs
- have makro keys

I am looking for a 'non mechanical'-Keyboard with customizable RGB leds. Do you know one?

Btw: looks great :D

I'm thinking about an unofficial devRant-Discord server - what do you guys think?

I can set it up if you guys want me to :)

My (German) programming teacher called it "Doppelkreuz" (literally translated: double cross) ... He's really alternative :D

Okay, I might be a dumb person but...

C# and Java isn't really made for web development, isn't it? I am looking for an alternative for PHP. Database connection, get data from html-form, cookies and so on...

I've been there yesterday :) That's awesome

Yes, I would like to work on websites. But JavaScript ist running on clients. So you could disable it.

I want to rebuild my web-tool (PHP) in another more modern language. So I need a database connection as well ...

What light show? :)

So you guys might help me regarding my last (!rant)-Rant ... 🙈

Just wait for the best day of the week, Monday ;)

Definitely:

bool* ok;

It's type is a Boolean pointer - it has nothing to do with it's name. :)

@Codex404 Yes, Discord has a great code highlighting :)

@No-one Yeah exactly - I'm really excited to see who Discord develops in the next months / years :)

@Enewia I can imagine Slack being the tool to use when working in a team professionally :)

A huge advantage of Discord is, that it is still in development ... They currently work on screen share and such interesting things :)

@hateios I'd say Discord is providing all the advantages of Skype, TeamSpeak and so on. It is for free, has an incredible lightweight permission system, provides private and group chats and a lot more...

Just check it out :)

@karwler This is what I wanted to hear :D
But seriously - discord is just the best. Even though it is still in development and far away from perfect ...

In my opinion there is a difference between "I'd like to place a \r\n before / after brackets" and "leaving a while loop is better than using a huge if condition". First thing is important when working in a team of programmers. Second sentence is referring to the thing called "CleanCode" as well as the function names do.

It's quite interesting to read and tbh - I adapted some aspects of clean code to my every day coding behaviour :D

Nice - congrats :D
