My roommate is a damn wannabe programmer: he keeps talking about how much he’s passionate into technology, buying hardware, spending hours into arranging his workstation to be as “cool looking” as possible, talking about future big projects, he even wants the fucking Java and Arduino logos embroidered in his backpack the only issues are that I’ve never seen him spending time in a project which going beyond literal hello world and if I offer him help to help and improve (I’m an employed programmer) he refuses because he’s tired/lacks time (but always make it for Netflix). I’d be still ok with that because I believe in living and letting live but now every time he starts to bore me with his lengthy stories about projects he’ll never do I imagine him with a big clown nose 🤡

Found this somewhere and started crying

software engineers be like “i don’t read books” then proceed to read api documentation for 4 hours straight

The division between chilling and working is absolutely gone when both happen in the same exact space.

Never thought one could explain this simple 🙆🙆🙆

Walking on water and developing software from a specification are easy if both are frozen!

Are you guys looking out for job change given that the recession is coming and people are getting fired?

So related to my very first rant, after two months on the new job, I got the whole team together (including my boss) and taught them how version controlling works!

For the last time, git is not GitHub.

Imagine a time when a colleague contributes a shitty spaghetti of non-optimized code that neither use mnemonic variables nor conventional naming of functions, and you can imagine the dark hours of maintaining it and your fingers itch to fix it but you don't have the time and the responsibility too to do it. He doesn't listen to you and you feel bad to tell this to the boss as the colleague is also a friend you've known since college and is a good person otherwise. No options seems to give peace.

This is the problem with big media, they overplay all the news and buzz words. Like wtf why is there a fucking robot. And you don't need an ai to stop people from sharing passwords

Haha , this is so me

...I think not even God knows it.

I'll be over here reading normal shit.

Yesterday's JR web dev interview:
👨🏻‍💻: Experience?
👶: Well JS, pyhton, UX Design and bit of Sass.
👨🏻‍💻: Feel like you'll have a hard time learning PHP?
👶: Well if it needs to be PHP, I can learn it.. Are you using a certain CMS?
👨🏻‍💻: Cool, good. Yeah we're using WordPress and need to support our sites for IE8.
👶:... Well.. ehm.. *runs away and screams in panic 💨*

Why in the cotton picking hell is everybody trying to start flamewars to watch it. We're supposed to be a united front against our dumbass clients where we can get our frustrations out not fighting each other. Doesn't matter if you need a reason to eat sweet and salty popcorn why you got to try to make us fight each other.

Eternal confusion.

People talk about hacking like, "I don't do it cause its illegal", like they could if it wasn't/ )))

I love brackets on the same line as function declaration and I am proud of it.

return war;
