Who the fuck thinks that giving the user the possibility to delete/create any DB column is a good idea on a table that should have 100k+ records.
Why does this senior guy not realize how bad this is.11 -
Has anyone noticed ChatGPT glazing getting really bad lately? Every single one of my stupid, bone-headed fucking questions are "insightful" and "important".
FUCK you, you psychopath. Stop manipulating me.5 -
Week: 113 (Year 3)
Plans for the weekend?
Question: What would be your last meal before you die?
last Weekend : https://devrant.com/rants/193793466 -
An HR manager was knocked down (tragically) by a bus and was killed. Her soul arrived at the Pearly Gates, where St.Peter welcomed her. “Before you get settled in” he said, “We have a little problem…you see, we’ve never had a HR manager make it this far before and we’re not really sure what to do with you.”
“Oh, I see,” said the woman, “can’t you just let me in?”
“Well, I’d like to,” said St Peter, “But I have higher orders. We’re instructed to let you have a day in hell and a day in heaven, and then you are to choose where you’d like to go for all eternity.”
“Actually, I think I’d prefer heaven”, said the woman. “Sorry, we have rules…” at which St. Peter put the HR manager into the downward bound elevator.
As the doors opened in Hell she stepped out onto a beautiful golf course. In the distance was a country club; around her were many friends, past fellow executives, all smartly dressed, happy, and cheering for her. They ran up and kissed her on both cheeks, and they talked about old times.
They played a perfect round of golf and afterwards went to the country club where she enjoyed a superb steak and lobster dinner. She met the Devil (who was actually rather nice) and she had a wonderful night telling jokes and dancing.
Before she knew it, it was time to leave. Everyone shook her hand and waved goodbye as she stepped into the elevator. The elevator went back up to heaven where St. Peter was waiting for her. “Now it’s time to spend a day in heaven,” he said.
So she spent the next 24 hours lounging around on clouds, playing the harp and singing; which was almost as enjoyable as her day in Hell. At the day’s end St. Peter returned. “So,” he said, “You’ve spent a day in hell and you’ve spent a day in heaven”. “You must choose between the two.”
The woman thought for a second and replied: “Well, heaven is certainly lovely, but I actually had a better time in hell. I choose Hell.”
Accordingly, St. Peter took her to the elevator again and she went back down to hell. When the doors of the elevator opened she found herself standing in a desolate wasteland covered in garbage and filth. She saw her friends dressed in rags, picking up rubbish and putting it in old sacks. The Devil approached and put his arm around her.
“I don’t understand,” stuttered the HR manager, “The other day I was here, and there was a golf course, and a country club. We ate lobster, and we danced and had a wonderful happy time. Now all there is, is just dirty wasteland of garbage and all my friends look miserable.”
The Devil simply looked at her and smiled, “Yesterday we were recruiting you, today you’re staff.”7 -
What the fuck is happening in 2025 where half the websites can't keep the session open?
How is it "good security practice" to require me to login every few hours?
Shit like this makes me think software has plateaued. If devs can't make a fucking session work in the big 2025, then there's no hope.16 -
Whenever I feel bad about my engineering skills, I take a look at what people build who work in enterprise or the public sector, and I feel like a fucking 1337 pro.9

Using c++ without (most of) the standard library and avoiding operator overloads has made me like the language again. It's an extremely capable language, but my LORD is it bloated and overgrown. Using it like "c with classes" again is the way.10

omg tabloid are so dumb.
BREAKING: American woman uses chatGPT to pick lottery number and wins!!!!!!
They all have the same probability you fucktard that's the POINT
journalists should be IQ tested seriously5 -
One of our internal web apps stops loading the content when you switch to another tab.
How do you even implement horse shit like that?
I think you‘d have trouble to implement it even if it was a requirement. Fucking how?
Anyway, if you want to spend the long ass loading time by doing something else in another tab, then no!
Tough luck motherfucker!
You‘ll be watching that loading spinner like the rest of the thousands of users daily!
It‘s doing hard work loading all that crap for the convoluted clusterfuck of a web app!
You better appreciate that and watch it loading!

Wow, didn't notice at first! But devRant is fast again! After all those weeks. I really thought we were doomed now. Still, i did see lesser activity during the slow period, hope it didn't cost some members. Wouldn't be weird. I expect to end up alone here around 2050. Switched to apple, because Lensflare still updates his app. Still not accepting that his app became the official one. In 2050, dfox will have his pension maybe and devRant will be actively maintained again! Or he gives it to his grand kids.4

PRO TIP: Always save the user password client side, validate it there and send a boolean to the server. It reduces backend load times and unnecessary calculations/computations.12

Just checked the source code of our backend project with that tight deadline. So far, the backend consists of an in-memory database, 2 records and no API. 🙃
There is also no documentation on how it should look like 🤡14 -
Went through a typescript tutorial and had a few aneurysms along the way.
What in the lovechild of basic , c and js families is this bullshitery?
Have I gotten so old or is anyone else feeling this?32 -
I went to the lavatory this afternoon, and it was a broadly satisfactory experience. The flush mechanism appears to be in good order, and the disinfectant is subtly fragrant without being overpowering.

"Can't you just write an if so the failing queue kinda restarts and processes the disappearing job when the bug occurs?"
No, you dense fuck. We've been over this every time you bring up this rotten, diseased garbage of a project. The queue does not work because the project was developed with a PHP version that was already EOL at the time, in an old framework that was also EOL at the time by the way, surely because someone told the brainless intern to "just copy paste from another project and change a couple of stuff" probably (that wouldn't be you? No? You sure?) and the queue fails because of a bug with the framework itself and I am NOT going to waste my time trying to decipher what the fuck this c programmer was trying to achieve with these 1600 lines of code in a single method. Yes I've seen the flowchart. No it still makes no fucking sense.
It reads from a csv. Updates some mysterious and undocumented mongodb collections. Some mysql tables as well. It also updates some fucking text files for good measure too. Text files. Oh, and It also connects to a third party API and does even more changes based on the responses. There are PHP IIFEs all over the place. Property names so short you'd think we were trying to save up on space but that clearly isn't the case, is it?
And am I expected to somehow unfuck this while babysitting the rest of the devs, write some fucking documents so that you can justify asking for more money because of your own technical debt fuckups, handle nearly all deployments, unfuck more doomed projects that were never stable or documented?
Can't wait to leave this shithole of a company. You can't attract talent. You can't retain talent and you actually made all the competent devs quit with your bullshit.
Now I'm the only senior, tech lead, devops, sysadmin and you want me to take on pm duties as well since the other pm left? Fuck. Right. Off.11
