Omg it's been a year. I was able to sit on it and work it out. I was able to publish the app i was talking about on this post.

@Bitwise yeah no none taken. All I really have come to realize is that this software development as a whole is not for me. Maybe I did something wrong, I expected a polite discussion from them or something. I think my naive personality isn't cut out for this. I was coding for a couple of years. Just had one company though, this was my second, the third and the fourth wouldn't probably open also like this one.

@Bitwise I get what you all said really. I wouldn't be ranting here if I didn't. The thing is we're all new. It's a new team.
I really have no qualms about formatting and stuff if this was formatting. This isn't really rocket science, it's almost trivial, there's no logic being fucked here. I'm not even suggesting to change the name of a class or method.

What I find baffling is the utter disregard to considering a polite question or suggestion of a colleague. There's no other reason I can think of but just plain ego. This was supposed to be a team, for god's sake. Yeah maybe I was wrong. I was wrong to expect a professional behaviour from people

@spacem I don't complain, I was just 'okay' and kept quiet, I was shookt. Here I am, took it to devrant. Because I thought devrant was created for things like this.

@xalez I'm on a freshly created team that will handle an existing project. It was a pull request scenario and I asked, politely if it would be okay to put a comment. And I did just that, like politely stated that 'would it alright to consider turning this as a one liner?' And he said, as long as it works it should be alright, it shouldn't hinder pull-request. I was just in awe, why bother having a pull request?

@wiardvanrij, but this doesn't seem like a standard. It's plain making it more pleasant for others to read. Placement parentheses is a standard but if there's a standard for constructing your logical if and return statements (outside the scope of DSLs) then that seems like a different problem altogether.

@theScientist would you consider this one?

```If ( something || something_else) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}```

Over
``` return something || something_else; ```

I'm a java developer, I tried kotlin and thought it was pretty rad.

I don't know if this is weird but whenever I get an interview I always act like I don't need a job but not so much that I look like a jerk. I just show a plain interest at what sort of technologies they're using, what kind of people they are to work with, if i'm theoretically fit fo the job, do I have the skills, etc.

@brod that's what I thought the sane thing to do. That's what we're doing at our company as well. If somebody pushed their personal branch upstream it will get deleted instantly. No one will bat an eye. They will even scold you that the base repo is not your personal playground.

I might work for free if i'm rich, retire, no better thing to do and immortal

@qbasic16 is that advisable or professional? I mean, if it's your personal work, why not just fork it then maintain that fork, merge stuff in and out of work, instead of pushing your branch upstream in everyone's dev environment? Most companies don't even let you copy the repo.

I'm also lucky, I met my girlfriend way back in high school. She chose the microbiology path while I went for computer engineering. Long story short, she's trapped now. We've been together for 10 years. Bwahahahahaha. Jk I love her though, she can tolerate my coding habits.

The thing we always overlook about this 'sudo' analogies is, before you can sudo, you still have to have the proper credentials. In the case of a girl, being on the sudoers list still requires you to earn it first, maybe cooking, dancing, idk, klingon perhaps. So yea, to sudo is one thing but to get on her sudoers list is a different story. Now, being her 'root' user, well, that requires even more work.

My projects doesn't even have any stars...

First look at the picture I thought you are making some sort of hud AR stuff running on linux and you're walking somewhere. After a minute or so I was like, oh it's a wallpaper. Silly me

@nitaj96a the thing I noticed about people while growing up is that, if you're not yet a very successful person, and you try to suggest ideas outside the norms, you are considered 'idealistic'. Visionary is reserved only when you manage to make it big. They will suddenly shift on calling you 'visionary'

Can you share the structure of your resume? Im also in the process of updating mine but I can't decide whether I put my details on a project section or just put those information on the work history section?

@Artemix that's currently my problem, I have job experience, but I have been working for a single company and just had some small projects as freelance. Should I just put a simple description on my job experience section and put all the details on different projects section from where I'll put details on all projects i've worked on while on my current job. Or just put all those information on the actual work experience section?

Can't decide which is worse, because my colleague tends to micro-manage me, like he isn't even a manager. But always want to know where I am, reminds me by skype of meetings even though we have outlook for that. Asks a lot of questions and what not, sucked a lot of time on meetings on tangent ramblings, overreacts on minor bugs, I mean he feels so burdened and want me to feel burdened as well because he had some merge conflicts. Like idk, last time I check it was part of the job. I even took a day off right now because of the idea that everyone else is leave and I don't want to be left alone with this guy.

What I do is run then type "taskmgr" like a barbarian.

What you guys do when after finishing a project, complete with installer, ready to ship to your friends and families. Then suddenly, after installing it on your friend's machine, antivirus blocks.and deletes it. Now your friends will think you're sending them a virus.

Im curious though, how was he? Found more interesting stories? Like, he was actually a cool guy once you knew him. Can speak 5 languages including klingon, can play bad ass guitar riffs, has a dragon tattoo on his back, his wife was a gangster princess genius chess master, something like that?

@redundandundant I feel you bro, at the end of the day we write code because it's fun. That's what really got us into programming, not to be the next big thing, but simply because we experience the joy of discovering things, making something, etc. Think of the fun not the output then sooner or later you'll be producing outputs as a sideffect.

What I do is to actually allot time at dawn to code before going to work. I stick to that routine until it was a habit. If I feel tired, I just try to remind myself why im doing it.

Is intelliJ free?

Is intelliJ free?

Oh wow, that's a lot of parameters. And, it's a get* but it returns a Boolean, and we sure hope that there's a reason why he/she/apache decided to use the non-primitive one.

I think trying to find the reason why is a good first step. I had the same situation before, which is worst because I used to love programming but I started to hate it because of work environment, It turns out I slowly incorporate programming to workplace. I started to hate programming because it reminds me of the people at work. I didn't quit right away, because well, people are people wherever you go. Instead, I remind myself why I love programming in the first place, then I start making projects in my free time, learn new stuff, like the good ol days.

Same here. Then I got acid peptic disorder like a week ago, now I can't remember the taste of coffee. Please send help
