while working on a website, I left a line of php code that echo's 'it fucking works' when a call is successfully made to the server. Two weeks later it hits me while I'm in bed that I never removed that line.

//not quite a rant?

I actually like my manager. They're pretty awesome... All things considered...

But they have absolutely no idea what I do...

today I was explaining a non tech guy , how 2 mobiles communicate with each other via a server. It started of really good. Then I got to know that what I was speaking was looking like Greek to him. This made it very clear that explaining things are also a difficult job

When you look back at the code you wrote year(s) back! 😂😂

//TODO uncomment the following line if the Product Owner change her mind again this week....

see you in hell mac mini, the raspberry pi is taking your place connected to the tv.

when $25 of Linux out performs $300 of apple.

Today I laughed so hard watching various Windows Scammer Pranks on youtube

Scammers calling themselves Certified Windows Genius 😂😂😂

Just type "Indian Scammer" on YouTube and enjoy..

Ps: I am an Indian too and I am very ashamed of all these scammers

Pointy Haired Boss: "There's an issue with this simple bit of that service, could you take a look?"
Me: "Sure, give me a minute to investigate"
*A minute later*
Me: "No wonder there's a problem, this code is horrendous! What idiot wrote this unmaintainable crap?"
PHB: "Doesn't matter, just fix it, test it and release it."
Me: "I just want to check who did it, so they never touch our code again."
*Checks SVN log*
Me: "Well, I guess I can never touch our code again."

A programmer is a person who fixed a problem that you don't know you have in a way you don't understand.

Pretty much sums it all up.

Only now that I am on an internship that I understand all the jokes about programmers

I should use TODO in my code rather than notes in my desktop 🆗

All true

Had to look into some old code today and had the "Is this my code?! This can't be my code!? No one else worked on this code, so it must be mine... But, but, it's so... good! And clean! And logical! And well documented! This can't be mine... Can it!? Hey! It works!" moment.

Developers Rant

When your team lead tells you to exactly replicate the ui which your designer has done using photoshop and the jpg output is given to the developer.

The difference between passing argument by value and passing it by reference.

I was explaining git and Github to one of my friends during our boring maths class when he asked : "What is the difference between git and Github?". Just then another friend of mine sitting in front turns out and said : "It's like the difference between porn and Pornhub".

I went to Paris for my first interview (that was 1989) for a job of Unix kernel developer. All dressed up. I step out of the elevator and see a young punk with scruffy hair and different colour shoes. I reckon he must be the pizza delivery guy. I ask him "dude, can you please point me to the CEO's office for interview". He said "sure, follow me man, I'll show you". We arrive at a desk, he sat down in the big chair and looks at me with a big smile and says "Ok dude, here we are. I am the CEO. Now let's see how good you are!"
I got the job. And 26 years latet, last week, amazing coincidence: I met him again at a trade show in Paris ... with the same coloured shoes. How cool is that!!!

How clients tend to not understand how much work developing a "simple" or "small" feature can be.

Hey add live chat, that's easy right?

When you found yourself trying to scroll your wireframe because you can't tell what's reality anymore.

mathematicians vs programmers

Fellow ranter who ever posted about fakeupdate.net thank you so much for the entertainment, a colleague forgot to lock their computer and came back to a heart attack and we had a nice laugh

Spending most of my time debugging and the problem is ... ;

Real life vs movie

First time using a new API

I'd love to start a pet project, but my brain refuses to come up with an idea. 😑
At least I'm used to it, seems like my creativity is not existent.
