A young guy I work with burst into tears today, I had no idea what happened so I tried to comfort him and ask what was up.

It appears his main client had gone nuts with him because they wanted him to make an internet toolbar (think Ask.com) and he politely informed them toolbars doesn't really exist anymore and it wouldn't work on things like modern browsers or mobile devices.

Being given a polite but honest opinion was obviously something the client wasn't used to and knowing the guy was a young and fairly inexperienced, they started throwing very personal insults and asking him exactly what he knows about things (a lot more than them).

So being the big, bold, handsome senior developer I am, I immediately phoned the client back and told them to either come speak to me face-to-face and apologise to him in person or we'd terminate there contract with immediate effect. They're coming down tomorrow...

So part my rant, part a rant on behalf of a young developer who did nothing wrong and was treated like shit, I think we've all been there.

We'll see how this goes! Who the hell wants a toolbar anyway?!

coherent devs

What do you call a developer that makes pixel perfect web interfaces?

A graphics autist.

He: Honzo, you are great coder, but can you please stop using those sexy anime chicks as placeholder images in your templates?
I: Ups, i forgot replace them.
He: Don't worry, client also enjoy it, but he maybe is only one. He also want to know where you found them.
I: Konachan.com

What can i say, i have exciting work.

Never thought one could explain this simple 🙆🙆🙆

It's sad. My teammates are resigning :( Damn management for not taking care of people that they already have. You hire new people with higher pay and let your existing people with lower pay teach them. I just feel like resigning too.

A friend told me that VSCode is somewhat like an IDE and was comparing VSCode with Webstorm...

Am i right that VSCode is a text editor and not a freacking IDE ? ☺️

So, if you want to learn kotlin, you should probably know java, am i right?

Just found a
catch {
// TODO: correctly handle exceptions
}

In production code.

When you've been getting lots of comments on your pull request and have to keep asking for approval.

I FUCKING LOVE JAVA

How do you tolerate a colleague who

- Fails to work as a team member, is inherently lazy and writes software that is simply horrendous
- Blatantly takes the easy road and even admits to it
- Has no sense of pride in the work they do
- Is your supervisor

I ranted about this back in 2018, now it’s reality.

15yrs ago I used to quarantine viruses 😪

How beginning programmers see stackoverflow

Just found that
When spammers need help they ask on facebook 😆

Hey, @google! I found a bug. The last 3 choices are missing.
The lack of balance is disturbing me.

This cures my anger issues.
Thanks IntelliJ.

Also, "why no screenshot?" will be disregarded.

Getting bored in quarantine. A few days ago I wrote a script for the chrome dino to jump in PC while I jump holding my phone. Any more fun ideas guys ?

Trying to sleep!!!

Designer: can we put the popup at the top of the screen?

Me: You mean op top of the navigation?

Designer: Yeah.

Me: I sure can. Would be stupid to block off the site navigation with a popup, but definately possible.

Designer: Cool, let me know when done!

Me: ....

Me: I am done.

Designer: Well now I can't click on the navigation anymore.

Me: That's correct. Let me know when you want to change it again.

I am lazy..

hmm...

Devs can hardly stand testers but both of them are an integral part of the development process...

U can forget wearing your pants but never these 3...

Save more ram

I hope it's not a repost.. but I find it funny
