Sounds like a good day to grab a ball and go outside.

After debugging this shit Java program for 2 days fucking straight, finally this shit works! Hallelujah!

Turns out, if you want to enable local DCOM/COM+ on windows, you have to not tell the piece of shit firewall that it should consider the network "public"...
WHY?!?
IT'S FUCKING LOCAL! NOT A SINGLE FUCKING NETWORK PACKET IS SEND! WHY?!?

What's your spirit animal?

I think I've figured out how r/unixporn works. Use a wallpaper of a cute anime girl and you'll get all the upvotes.

Hey everyone,

@trogus and I are happy to make an exciting announcement. With the rapidly increasing success of NFTs, we've decided the devRant community shouldn't miss out on this compelling new paradigm for user-generated content. So, we will soon be offering all rants as NFTs at auction.

To kick things off, we're going to first be offering the first ever rant posted to devRant (https://devrant.com/rants/489/...) at auction for a starting price equivelent to $100,000 USD. We think this is a fair starting price for such a significant piece of devRant history, and we anticipate the final sale price to be significantly higher.

We look forward to hearing everyone's thoughts on this new direction for the devRant community, and we can't wait to see the Rant NFT market take off!

Sincerely,
@dfox & @trogus

I did it y'all, I just put in two weeks. Goodbye tech debt, goodbye anti-patterns, goodbye constant firefighting.

Don't use my idea.

They hire you as an intern and then they make you work like a Tech Lead.

A good project is a finished project.

typescript is awesome. it brings type safety into javascript which speeds up my workflow because I always find myself running into typing issues at runtime

Its March 3rd and I'm already at 858 contributions for the year 🤯

I got my moment.

The balls some managers must have to think that this is going to be an acceptable price.

I also find it hilarious that a $2 adblocker can fuck this in the ass.

It’s actually pretty neat. I constantly suffer from impostor syndrome, so I always have keep learning to keep up the facade.

We have an API which returns 600 MB of JSON.

Because client "Wants to see everything first and then apply filters, just like Excel".

FML
Edit and ofc thier laptops with core i3 and 4GB of ram can't even process that.

If 13 hour days on Friday are the norm, I'm going to have to go back to the drawing board. Fuck that.

Uh oh

Sass.

I'm using the @use directive to avoid bundling the same thing a hundred thousand times.

Sass doesn't give a flying fuck and bundles the same thing a hundred thousand times

Why you must hurt me like this

What if mark Zuckerberg buys Signal app ?

ARIA kidding me?

Why did I choose to be a web dev?

I didn't. That's the first job I found, and I didn't wanna starve

Dear CORS,

Fuck you.

I wish.

Welcome to JSX

Ahh the gems you find in codebases where only one person each is in charge of the frontend and the backend.

I got fired.

Worst job I ever had, they extended my probation period, called me "over maintenance", said my work was good but not good enough for the effort, If I take a lot of care doing my work then it's "over preparation", if not good enough then it's "not detailed enough", I don't ask enough questions? I must be unmotivated, I ask too many? I take up too much of other people's time.

Fuck them all. I hope they get a taste of their own medicine.

Another day, another "Sorry I had issues connecting..."

Developing software through Remote Desktop should be fucking illegal.

Every fucking port is fucking blocked on the fucking piece of shit fucking server. FUCK YOU
