Am I the only backend Web developer with minimal knowledge of frontend? How can frontend be so hard.

that feel when you see "contact the administrator" and you don't know what to do, because you are the administrator

When you look at a layout and consider the hour it will take to refactor and clean stuff out to remove built functionality.

Nah fuck it - display: none !important;

Working with a bad designer:
Designer: Here is the new layout
You externally: Proceed to politely explain why this design breaks logic and eliminates crucial flows etc.

From a fellow developer:

Make bugs, but hide them well.

Microsoft just bought LinkedIn. Time to delete my account methinks.

I almost rage quit today bc I'm maintaining someone else's unreadable code

Devrant is the only social platform made to recognise the world's hidden heroes, us.

Once a PM, always a PM.

Since I started messing around with front end (JavaFX and css), the expression "code works and I don't know why" just gained a whole new level.. I have no idea how did those boxes aligned..

So I discovered WAMP this weekend, it's so nice to not have to work on my prod server when making changes and testing out new projects :)

Best complaint from roomate : "I have to go to e3 for work tomorrow"

Your PM after you explain only .1% of your user base could experience the issue after performing a specific order of events all while holding their breath...

Assisted Scrolling...

What PMs think we do.

When you find yourself mentally fixing someone else's CSS at the new interactive bus stop

I love the skill requirements section of a junior Dev job advertisement.

To summarise "Basically you'll need all the skills and experience of a senior, but we are gonna pay you much much less". 😔

For those who paid attention to my heated London interview excursion:

I got the job, I'm now employed by Cisco systems!!!!!!

When your devRant +1s surpass your Stackoverflow reputation

When devrant gets famous, we're all going to be known as SMEs. Maybe we'll get the chance to become mods!

So I just created this Registration GUI (part of a bigger app) for my uni project and was demonstrating how good the app was to all my friends.

Suddenly someone came and said let me verify this. I said go on with a doubtful mind. Obviously I had some verification for all the fields in the GUI but I was closely watching him.

He signed up with this email: " @ . "

When your internship was suppose to be in software development but you end up making logos/graphics and the front-end of a webpage...

If you put a Unix shell up to your ear, can you hear the C?

The moment when you have this greatest idea in mind for an application after all that brainstorming!!!
Later you find out the idea already exists...
