Purposely putting myself outside my comfort zone. Forces me to learn and push myself!

Rant about fellow devRanters: don't you ever get tired arguing about which phone/operating system/brand is better? I don't give a fucking shit. It's exhausting reading the same shit every week. We get it, everyone has to like what you like. 🙄

My productivity hack? Exercise.

It's amazing what a good workout can do after a long day of work. The stress just melts away and i sleep like a baby!! Ready to rock and roll the next day. 😎

Feature request: don't show redundant notifications?

If i was mentioned in a rant, don't also tell me that someone commented in the rant if we're talking about the same comment.

!rant

I love coding but i haven't touched a physical keyboard and mouse for 10 days! Feels nice for a change. 😃

My "rubber duck". I call him coding pal bob. :-)

I wish Google let me shave Santas eyebrows!!

Anyone try Kubernetes yet? It looks really promising! Looking to learn about deploying microservices at scale...

http://kubernetes.io

Colleague didn't properly test a software deliverable...team wasted 2 days integrating the software due to bugs. 😭😭

!rant

Just learned how to use Spring + Eureka + Feign + Ribbon to easily discover microservices as they're deployed, do basic load balancing, easily hitting endpoints on other micro services, etc.

Mind = blown 🤓

devRant...why do you have to be such a memory hog? ☹️️

When you debug and notice that "myString".equals("myString") evaluates to false...and after an hour realize it's a 'Byte Order Mark', which of course Java doesn't handle properly. Ended up using BomInputReader from Apache commons, which made my life simpler.

If I ever want to inflict pain on other developers, I shall write files to disk with a byte order mark. 😂

When you change 200 lines of code all over the place in a class and then realize that you forgot to pull 17 commits from origin 😖

Has anyone tried to 'report' dfox (as a joke)?

I wonder what his reaction would be.
🤔

Sometimes I just wish Core Data would die.

I logged the managed object context of each object being touched and they're all identical. 😑😑😑😑😑😑

To work on my personal project or watch the NBA finals? decisions, decisions.... 😁

When your colleague hasn't heard of devRant yet 😮

When you're in the zone, writing your genius down before you forget it, and you smartwatch reminds you to go stand and move around. 😑

When you work for a multinational organization that's adopting scrum. We don't swarm, our PO isn't even in the same building, and one of your teammates hates git (loves TFS).

Fake it till you make it I guess?
