Hi guys what is the meaning of double back slash in my Git folder? It is not removed when I do a "git clean -fd". This is the first time I encountered something like this.

$ git status
On branch master
Changes not staged for commit:
(use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
(use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)

modified: some/folder/hello.php

Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

"\\"

no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")

One does not simply uninstall visual studio...one has to first update the installer

😂😂😂

UTF-8 gone wrong

Git.

The smallest utility made its way to being the largest companies must-have, the most critical part of the whole development landscape.

Using just plain C, Git can shred huge amounts of data insanely fast. It never gets old.

Git is a developer's scalpel.

Zebra next level

Windows: everything is proprietary and inconsistent

Mac: everything is expensive

Linux: everything is a text file

I'm the git master in my group for a uni project as I am the only one with some experience.
This is what I have to deal with

This is what happens when I'm asked to document something.

An actual "incorrect answer" in my exam paper.

EVERYTIME!!

Nice try ad-people

So where to start... Let me preface this by saying I am a Software Architect for C# and do 99% dotnet development.

I just received a phone call from our Director of Development asking me to look at adding a feature for SSO with our companies main development project, which is written in PHP. I hope I made the correct changes but since I am not a PHP dev... I am not 100% confident in my code.

Now I am writing this as we are making the deployment Friday, December 29, 2017 at 5:00 pm. I should add that I am going on vacation for the next week.

So let me summarize... I am not a PHP developer, the non-PHP developer is making PHP changes on a Friday Night, and before a long weekend and before going on vacation.

I would like to point out that I said I was not 100% comfortable with this... but well this is what they wanted. I am not even sure what really to say about this though.

Coders! Who drinks behind the keyboard?

Three days ago:
Let's try Firefox Quantum
Two minutes later:
Bye Chrome

Heroku allows you to deploy your webapp from Dropbox...

THIS IS NOT SOMETHING WE SHOULD ENCOURAGE!

Couldn't resist making this...

I think I found my first Easter Egg!

Google please fix this ;)

Holy shit, "The IT Crowd" is awesome

Heaviest Objects In The Universe

I'm a backender. I fucking hate everything relating to designing, UI/UX designing and especially frontending.

I can't stand it when interfaces look bad/are off, have bugs and so on.

I just can't stand that stuff but the irony is real 😅

The most under-stated job description

Shower thoughts...
Do Microsoft developers use IE?
And what about bing developers, do they use bing?

All Terms of Services agreement changes, etc. need to be in GitHub. I don't want to reread the whole thing, where's the diff?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hotel wifi fucking SUCKS!!

I’m a .NET desktop fullstack dev these days… Never worked web unless for my own small needs/personal projects.
I started using tech one way or the other by the time windows was version 3.1 and been through quite a bit ground-breaking changes in the industry of software development and the internet but if there’s one thing I cannot understand of it all, no matter how much thought I put into it is: How the fuck did we manage to make it so fucking complicated to develop anything these days?
I remember like it was yesterday that you could stand a website with HTML, CSS and JS, three fucking files and you’ve made yourself a single page site. Then came the word “Responsive”, “Responsive” written everywhere. Fair enough, grid system popped up. All of the sudden jQuery was summoned… and everything that happened after this point has been a fucking circus of high-pitched teens talking on conferences about fucking libraries and frameworks to make integration with real time, highly scalable, eco-friendly, serverless, data driven, genome aware, genderless, quantum technologies to interact with bio dynamically generated organisms, namely fucking users.
Every fucking bit of the process of building a mobile/web application seems to be stopped by yet another incredibly dumb attempt to suicide a developer. Can you go from starting an app and publishing an app without jumping through a thousand VERY specific hoops? No, fuck no.
I fucking hate it… It’s a bit hard to get Desktop dev jobs these days but for as long as I work on IT I will continue to stick to that area, until someone for the love of life comes up with a fucking solution to all this decadent circus of bureaucratic technocracy.
Fuck big industry, fuck tech giants, fuck javascript and webassembly, fuck kids putting ASCII art on console applications that I DON’T FUCKING NEED to install dependencies THAT I DON’T FUCKING NEED to extend functionality on frameworks that I DON’T FUCKING NEED… oh wait, I do need all this because YOU FUCKING MADE IT MANDATORY NOW! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YOU!!!

After a long time in .NET and JavaScript, I have returned to Java today. I was quite happy about it for a few minutes!

I am going to buy this cool new app for my windows 10.
