"This should just involve adding one file."

Oh, we all wish it were that easy!

This is way too true.

What do you call a party with developers?

A git together

I'm so sorry.

About Brexit.

DevRant should have a nightmode with even darker colours.

Basically

That akward moment when you realize that you are not in a linux shell!

How I explain web development to non-tech people :/

You call it procrastinating, I call it thinking.

Most of my impressive work gets done within the last hour of the workday.

There's nothing quite like heavy rain to set the mood for programming!

During mockup presentation where everything is perfectly vertically aligned:

Dev: "How should the surrounding content behave if the article is longer?"

Designer: "That won't happen."

who else feels like this every damn day?

Monday morning blues...

Bringing back the Java in JavaScript!

Meanwhile, in real life...

Coolest project: I once worked for a customer who hosted an exhibition for a few thousand visitors in a big event arena in Stockholm.

They didn't want to use the existing ticket reading system on the arena so I had to build my own application compatible with barcode scanners (they said this about one week before the event).

It wasn't a complicated application to dev but with the tight deadline and no time to actually stress test it, it was the coolest thing to see hundreds of people streaming through the ticket station flawlessly.

Day 2 of the event I built a simple web application so I could see the flow rate of read tickets while I sat in the arena pub with a beer.

When you begin to hate your project, your job, your life...But suddenly things work and then everything is ok again!

The 5 stages of debugging:

1. What?
2. Why?
3. How?
4. Impossible.
5. Oh.

Why I joined devRant

Anyone else put in headphones with absolutely no intention of listening to anything, just to make people less likely to bother you?
