Programming as fast as you can because of deadlines

e = mc^2

I am so thrilled that the hackathon that I coorganized is happening! 😍😍

The only expressions devs have

I've been developping some software so an entire debian OS gets bootstrapped and installed with all the desired software with the help of puppetlabs software...i need to prepare a server that can handle virtualization and be fast at it. So all the goodies a decent server needs, the apt, caching, networking, firewall, everything checks out... I want to test kvm virtualization... Doesn't work. Wtf? Spend a decent amount of time figuring out what the hell is wrong... I finally dzcide to think 'what if my buddy accidentally gave me a bad mobo'...

$ grep -e (vmx|ssm) /proc/cpuinfo

Nothing...

I feel so stupid to not check the mobo virtualization capabilities.

Me at the new company:
My code doesn't work, I don't know why..
My code works!, But still I don't know why

My first software teacher almost made me quit programming for life.

She spent the entire year not showing us how to make a shity app in visual basic. Zero help. We all hated it.

At the end of the year and she realised she had 'forgotten' to teach us 70% of the course. We all failed miserably! I didn't touch programming for almost 3 years. (unless you could MATLAB, which I don't).

That was when I discovered Mehran Sahami's CS106A course on the Stanford website. Honestly the best teacher I've never met! His passion is boundless and mastery of teaching is second to none. Thanks to him I discovered programming and I love it! Karol the robot should get a special mention too!

Good teachers make the world of difference.

Yayy!! Just got my stickers... 😍😍😍
Now comes the hardest part, where to put them 😱

Wooo thanks devRant 😁

When you're not creative enough to make a post that would give you some stickers but you have a 3D printer...

This is cute. Thank you @dfox and @trogus

I think the apps should have the Surprise Me feature, lots of oldies but goodies.... and quite frankly I'm running out of good content on the feeds....

When GitHub sent me these for my presentation on VCS in Google developers group meetup...

Today I had a dream, in which I got 300++ on devRant, no joke 😐

Best dream in history of dreams.

That was fast ! Thanks a lot guys. Spreading the love.

Teacher gave us the wrong specs for a project we had to do on 3 years, learned it 4 weeks before the final test ...

If devRant ever opens up a public API I'm gonna build a dating app

When interviewing a dev, ask them what they think about time zones. If their answer is "fuck time zones", hire them immediately.

println("Hello World");
This is where it all began. 🤘

I find it annoying how Microsoft only lets you have 12 hours maximum as your active hours, I'm usually on my laptop for more that 12 hours

My worst experience ... and best, was when the company I worked for sent me to teach OOAD to the faculty of the Mathematics and Computer Science department of a University in Pennsylvania. There I was, a guy with no degree teaching a group of PhD's the fundamentals of OOAD. Imposter Syndrome? You bet. Nervous? Yes. My mouth felt like it was filled with cotton, and when I picked up a cup of water on the first day, I had to put it back down because my hands were shaking so badly. I could handle a room full of developers, but for me, this was a whole other league. As it turned out, the professors had a blast, and gave me great reviews, but that first day of a five day class was a doozy. After that, I knew I could handle anything.
