Going to a business summit tomorrow and I get to see a live hack and learn about cyber attacks.

Shit better be good.

Not even slightly exaggerated

*dies*

PBF: This program is so difficult

Me: what's difficult about it?

PBF: *explains*

PBF: *may as well be speaking greek*

Me: Oh. Well, I'm sure you'll kill it. I believe in you ❤

PBF: -_-

Me: (^^,)

Hilarious :')

If @MattMatt and I ever reproduce, I see this being up in the spawns' playroom. 🙆🏽

All the cheesiness 😂

Saw this on FB, so have at it! Explain programming/development as badly as possible. :D

Programmer boyfriend: you should come back to programming

Me: why?

PBF: then we can work together

Me:

Programmer boyfriend: *explaining his work and code and how things work*

PBF: does that make sense?

Me: of course

Narrator: it did not make sense

When I used to code I'd use the Pomodoro Technique.

It helps me get tasks done more quickly and efficiently when I know I only have to focus for 45 minutes and then I get a 15 minute break.

It also helps if you're stuck on something, because when you come back to it you have fresh eyes.

Also, music without any lyrics helps me focus better than music where someone is singing. Be it Mozart or dubstep, as long as there are no words I can work with it. 😂 (I highly recommend Instrumental Core)

Finally, my phone would be in a completely different room or in my desk drawer in DND mode. I set it up so that it only rings for certain people (parents, brother and boyfriend), so no-one can bug me while I work. It's fantastic.

While I'm not a dev, I do love computers and I do know my way around them, so friends/family often ask me for tech support.

Friend: Please fix my computer!

Me: what's wrong with it?

Friend: *sends me pic of blue screen of death*

Me: ...

Me: I don't think you understand

Programmer BF before we were dating: I love my job. My job is the best thing ever. I will never love anything as much as I love coding.

Me: K

*A few months later*

Me: Ugh, your alarm is going off. Wake up.

PBF: I don't wanna go to work 😭

Me: Oh really? 😏

Programmer boyfriend is going back to work soon.

RIP relationship.

Best experience: being in charge of the backend of the company website

Worst experience: being in charge of the backend of the company website when something was going wrong

When my programmer boyfriend talks about his job 🙆🏽

Happy New Years, everyone!

Here's some lame humour for y'all. ☺

Sometimes I miss programming, but then I look at my programmer boyfriend's code and I'm like, "Never mind, I'm okay," and I go back to being carefree and happy while he's going grey from the stress. 🙆🏽

When my programmer boyfriend talks about his code, all I say is "That's so cool, babe," because I have no idea what he's even talking about.

He could be telling me he blew up a server.

"That's so cool, babe."

(I love you, though, darling x)

I wanted to go on a cruise with my programmer boyfriend.

His response?

"I can't be away from work that long."

Not because he'll get into trouble or anything. Oh no. He just loves writing code *that* much. 🙄

Random question:

Am I allowed to post rants about what it's like to date a dev?

A SQL query walks into a bar and spots two tables.

He asks them, "Can I join you?"
