I just went through a node.js code for ChatBot. The person was excited and said, he can train the bot and AI blah blah. Well, I then just smiled seeing the "Switch Statements" in the code.

Always Remember

me: im tired of coding here

boss: then go home and code there

me: GREAT SEE U TOMORROW

boss: okay, tomorrow bring a pillow, slippers and food so you'll feel more comfy coding!

Which is a good slack alternative?

-Simple.
-Channels.
-Mobile App.

Hey guys...
It's finally working.
Just needed to upgrade the drivers.
Using RGBL + 3 28BYJ steppers.

Just have one tiny problem and need help...
The resolution isn't right... Instead of moving mms, if I send a move of 64mm (one stepper revolution) it just turns one time instead of moving 64mm... Where are the settings to change this?
Btw this is the best birthday present ever, from me to me :-D also... My parents bought me a 3D printer, waiting for it to arrive... Me happy today

Yo, have some questions for all you Macbook devs here.
#0. What language do you mostly write in?
#1. Do any of you dualboot / use VM's on your Mac?
#2. Is it better or worse (in your experience) to code on a Macbook in general?

Asking bc Im thinking on getting one for The thin and lightness of it.

Hactoberfest is in October.
Wait...there are only four days left....

Guys i got 1000++!!!

It's not that i'm special now.

Just more special than others.

Oh I remember the old times when devRant veterans like @linuxxx or @Alice posted their first rants and I welcomed them!

I even remember that night I gave @dfox the idea of creating this app! "That's stupid.", he said. "If this app should be succesful I owe you some special kind of duck we will produce for some reasons I don't know yet!", he said.

But for real now: Thanks everybody for being a part of this and for bringing me so much joy!

Earlier this day i reached 1000++. Nice, isn't it?
Suddenly an idea comes to my mind.
Why not make a rant and thank everybody? And now comes the important part:

Why not make up a funny story telling how i met @dfox and welcomed @linuxxx and @alice on devRant?

Because somehow the story isn't funny at all because nobody got that it was a joke...

Went great...

People think i'm really old (19 btw.)
People think I know @dfox personally
@linuxxx can't even remember how I never welcomed him

So... sry... I guess? But thanks for the really nice comments!

8 hours of networking/static routing exercises...

Result?

Windows bug: system provides two standardgateways

Let me write that again:
Two STANDARDgateways

Neither me nor my teacher found out how this happened

My worst developer sin is probably me talking sh*t about programs I could never have done better myself.

"Omg, this is so inefficent!"
"Omg, the ui is so confusing!"
"What kind of idiot would do that?"

...I'm not the only one who does that, am I?

Don't get me wrong I love the weekly rants!
...but on mondays I just genuinely don't use devRant because reading about the same topic over and over again becomes boring so quickly.

I know... I know... We're not kids anymore...

But come on there just has to be a group of Harry Potter lovers in this "geeky" community.

So which house do you see yourself in?

Me, myself and I = Ravenclaw all the way

*this post was shamefully inspired by the description of @theNox*

Simple tutorial on ++ grinding:

Step 1: subscribe to a big devRanter (big = many ++ of course)
Step 2: wait for him to post a rant
Step 3: be the first one to comment
Step 4: take whatever he wrote and negate it in the most sarcastic way possible (example given)
Step 5: watch as your ++ count skyrockets
Step 6: repeat

...don't try this at home!

Non-dev activity that made me a better dev?

That's an easy one.

Playing the piano. Or better: learning to play the piano.

(With the help of my teacher) I developed many skills that help me learn faster and I learned how to properly use and organize my time.

Two friends of mine (one of which actually introduced me to devRant) refuse to post on here.

...there's no need to explain that I want them to enjoy devRant (at it's full potential) with me but they don't see a point in writing.

Would you be so kind and give them some motivation/reasons in the comments? What's the point of dev-ranting?

It was a cold monday evening.
I was alone in my room.
Many hours of coding had passed.

Windows offered me two options:
"Shutdown"
"Shutdown with update"

Anoyed by the update but thankful for the first option i decided to go with number one.
Windows started its shuting down process when all of a sudden...

"Please don't turn off your machine! Your updates are being konfigured!

It was that evening...
That one speciall evening...
I decided...
To finally...
Do nothing about this problem and cry myself to sleep...

Just checking... I'm not the only one that has no presents for christmas yet, am I?

I really love Mr Robot.
The show though... not the guy...

But there's one thing that bugs me since the beginning:

For security reasons Elliot destroys all his drives and puts his RAM into the microwave which of course is effective but why would you even consider frying volatile memory?

Sure... the data can remain for some time but not that long that he would risk anything...

Any ideas?

Oh and btw... SEASON 3 IS NOT THE END??? LIKE WHAAAAAT?

I get the honor to be the first one!

Oh boy!

MERRY CHRISTMAS DEVRANT!

Worst dev experience:
"Learning" vhdl

Best dev experience:
Actually learning because of a new, more competent professor

You know you could buy any game whenever you want but they are just way too expensive...

But now you got a paysafecard for christmas... now you have to buy a game... I mean... the money was dedicated for games... it would be wrong not to buy a game...

BEST PRESENT EVER

Do you guys like Disney?

Have you seen this masterpiece?

Me playing the piano: "No problem"

Me coding: "I'll kill your dead mouse"

Spending a lot of time in 'recent' I greet many people with "Welcome to devRant" every day.

The funny part: half of them used devRant before I even knew it existed but they just now decided to write their first rant

In the bottom left corner of the picture there is a devRant guy with a 3 monitor setup...

However 2 monitors are the biggest multi monitor setup you can select...

*puts tinfoil hat on*

Have I just leaked the next big devRant update?

Apparently "in" and "out" are the new "varying" and "attribute" in OpenGL's shader language...

Even buying a new graphics card can f*ck up your whole day! 😥

While working on our matlab project, my laptop just suddenly stop responding. Even the task manager isn't responding! Everything is fucked up and the file hasn't been saved yet. Then a friend of mine started saying that Mac is better than windows and im like:

"Bitch pls linux is the best"

I won't spend a lot of money to buy a macbook. I'd rather spend money buying a better laptop with great specs and dualboot Linux alongside Windows.

So guess what my little sister got me for my birthday! She actually made an effort to make this cute gift. Maybe in the future I will buy the original one and then I'll have two :3
