I want to do the first two points this year as well!

Tea drinker here, don't remember the last time I had coffee.

How did you actually install ubuntu? I use Parallels VM but didn't know it's easy to dual boot Ubuntu on Macbooks.

Extra points for immutable age variable ;)

All my government's websites are abysmal, wish I could just make them all pro-bono.

@dfox create a cron job that does it every 3 hours 😉

Hate it when they do that.
I just google the title snd read the article elsewhere :p

I love it when I'm moving my mouse and the guy's eyes looking at my screen follows the pointer, the look on his face.. So funny

Use jshint or some sort of linter?

I laughed out loud for real

Of course you should be able to draw blue lines with red ink !

(Mac specific pro) oh and knowing you can try and install any OS out there in VM (OSX, Windows, Linux/Unix distros) and they will work just fine!

+1 for mentioning Xcode ^

Congratulations man!!

Been there time and again.

Ooh I have a few of those !!

I was a casual tutor and sessional lecturer at University of Canberra last year for a few semesters... most of the students were just after the grades and didn't show any interest in the actual fun stuff.

I love WebStorm, it's paid though ($5/month) but worth it. When ai'm not using webStorm I'm always on Atom

The one when Joey accidentally proposes :D

What language and framework did you use to build devRant's private API and db? Play Scala/Java? Postgres? Docker? 😁😁

WOAH! Amazing! Any chance you'll put it on Github? ;)

Newer programming languages like Scala and Swift doesn't require the need to use semicolons. Just saying ;)

I'm currently building an app using Cordova, Ionic and AngularJS and even though it makes sense when it comes to business wise it just isn't equal to native. I'm also implementing WebSQL and offline support and sync for both iOS and Android, every day I almost kill myself.

Learn a new framework and run away from php!

What if the query return multiple tuples?

I hate writing unit tests. But I also hate if I'm given a code to work on without unit tests.

Cordova does the job, don't get me wrong. Just that html mobile apps are not as good as native ones.
Also my head hurts looking at Objective-C method signatures *shudders*

I'm currently working with ionic + cordova + angular to write an app for iOS and Android. Every day I almost kill myself. Native FTW!
(Never tried Xamarin though)

Is there an API?

Yuck! I feel for you man.
