HR doesn't give a shit about their employees, they only care about the company.

The stickers are finally here! :D

Thanks for shipping it all the way to India guys.

Staying up till late in the night just to get this message. Finally it's done. :D

Happy 22 to me! 😁😁

When the network monitor you wrote decides to go offline for unknown reasons the same day you have your bachelor thesis presentation.

FML :/

A few days ago while browsing devRant, my girlfriend stopped me at this one post and asked why does this person have a rubber duck. I went on to explain her about Rubber Duck Debugging. She was totally amazed by the concept (she's not a techie). Today suddenly a package arrived at my door step from her.

Well now I have an entire family of rubber ducks to code with :D

The comfortable sleeping pod at my work place :/

Using a brute force dictionary algorithm to retrieve every employees password. Access got blocked for a day because they didn't know what my algorithm did, I deleted the main file moments ago. They only saw the curl scripts.

Taking a work from home and later realising how you miss the monitors at your office. :/

We've been there before

Someone fucking scratched my personal laptop. No one at home ready to take the responsibility. 😒

Using Javascript for your backend.

Company automatically disables your employee login passwords after every 45 days, which is a good practice for ensuring security. However I get no notifications that my password is being disabled. The result, for the past 4 months, I've been going to IT support requesting them to let me change my password on their admin console because I forgot to change it 'once again'. Sigh.. :/

The much needed coffee breaks

Start coding a project for version 7.x, everything works in tests. Deploy it on the server and it doesn't work. Checks version and turns out it is 6.x, ask my manager why didn't he tell me before, he goes like so what, do it for all versions.

I go wtf

Went through a lot of GitHub repositories and other people's codes to try to understand how the "magic" happens. Slowly started getting a hang of it. Good thing being, I picked up good coding practices along the way

Happens to a lot of people I'm guessing.

Junior asks me to help him with his Microprocessors project. I was like cool mail it to me I'll check it out. He sends me a .s assembly file and tells me this is machine generated code, can you make it look like it's written by a human. I was like wtf dude -_-.

Data Structures professor enters class, today's topic being RBTs. He opens slides, forgot to redact the name and university from where he blatantly copied it from. Continues anyways. *Facepalm*

!rant

Just a little questiom. What's the movie or TV series where you've seen a hacking scene which is probably very close to reality?

*suddenly wakes up thinking I'm late for work*

*Realises it's a holiday*

*Goes back to sleep again*

PS: Sadly this happens every other day of week :/

There's a wall for videos on Facebook now? Come on!

I'm glad I never had a HR round during my interview, no "where do you see yourself in 5 years?", blah blah. Phew!

Debugging on a Friday evening be like

Random Uncle: So what do you do?

Me: Uncle, I'm a dev at xyz company.

RU: Ah so what do they do

Me: Uncle we work in the internet advertising business, kind of like AdSense

RU: So you basically spam the web?

Me: Yes :/

README.md file on some random GitHub repository

"A Python program written in Python which does xyz task"

Ok you don't say

Helping a random junior out with an ML project on an online tutor site.

Her: So what is the syntax for implementing xyz function

Me: *opens Google* *opens pandas docs* *searches the function* *tell her the syntax*

She: Woah thanks a lot!

I collected my tutor fees feeling good about myself.

Interviewer: Any plans on pursuing Masters?

Me: I haven't thought about it so far

Interviewer: You know what, work here for 1-2 years then go do your Masters, then join Google or Facebook

Me: Ok :|

First week of work as a fresher, had to run my code on the server, compiled them on my system and moved them to the server, they weren't running, tried a lot to find the problem, then in frustration and haste deleted a few other important files on the server. Then realised the architectures of my system and the server were different. FML

PS: restored the deleted files from backup, so it's cool now
