Dumb dev stories

Was working on a school project a few months ago, It was some fun game to teach OOP design patterns. We had a Singleton class which was the one instance of the board for the game (just an array really), and like 5 different states a character on the board could be in. I finished all of the State classes and afterward one of the members in my group edited all of my States to actually take in the Singleton in the constructor and hold the Singleton in the class as a variable. I looked at other classes and he did this for literally everything instead of just calling the getSingleton() method whenever you needed it. It didn't really matter but it pissed me off so much since now every constructor ever had to keep passing the Singleton down over and over.

He did this a few more times with other things. Just storing objects for no reason because he didn't like doing "object.getParent().getThing()". Fucking infuriating. I wasn't about to go and edit everything so I left it and still got an A on the game.

In my game dev class this guy gave a presentation and proceeded to denigrate his teammates for not working for 3 minutes straight until the professor told him to stop and gtfo because he was so mad, one of the most awkward things I've witnessed in school, glad I graduated

at my first real job I had to work with government devs who were terrible at everything, the client complained about an error so someone submitted a PR that wrapped the entire main() in a try catch to suppress the error without handling it, and I had to review the PR and gently explain it wasn't an appropriate solution. These people probaby made 2X my salary.

Your team member is correct. Service locator is an anti-pattern, decency injection is the hot new thing now.

Do you at least remember the gist of the algorithm? How is it possible fuck that up so badly?

you sound like an insufferable asshole. enjoy dying alone

Doesn't really seem like the same thing when it's a Singleton but sure. Otherwise, having a class that holds two objects and all 3 of them are storing the same thing seems redundant for no reason.

There's no dev/staging environment or QA process? Sounds like a monkey house there.

That's why new developers / companies demand a lot the fact of using library handlers, npm, composer, frameworks and any other background "magic" that they don't even understand, for the simple act of copying and pasting and the ability to replace any code monkey instantly. Developers no longer develop, they just paste code after code after code until they make an disgusting monster that stands on its own by a miracle and barely does what it should do.

Few understand, edit and correct their own code or even design in ways that they never forget their entire project. These days it's rare for even one developer to know their own code or figure out what they did. And the constant use of libraries has helped them not even understand what happens in each of these final projects, nor do they know that there are methods to optimize.

It is insane how out of 10 programmers 2 know what they are doing or are even constantly improving their projects and putting together different ways to do things well, the other 8 are copying the previous 2.

Yes, the quality devs do not stay long in shitty companies flooded with retards, they usually get better offers and leave, and then the second best guy has to do 3x as much work for the next month before he finds something better. Or just rage-quits.

This is how companies - and civilizations - collapse.

quickly, faggot, say the difference between git pull and git clone, time 10 secs to answer fucking fag

git pull fetches and merges with your existing index
git clone fetches and checks out the tip of the default branch

git pull my dick

You covered git in class? You're supposed to find that out on your own. Sounds like a pretty shit school.

Unless the pay sucks, why? You fags take this shit to seriously. Oh know someone at my work is a dumb-dumb, so what? Do you own the company? No? Then don't give a fuck.

The university is there to teach you theory. It's not a coding bootcamp. You find out how to use version control in group projects. Sorry you're American, btw.

Because their retardation compromises a stable working environment. You can either work to change it or if its too entrenched, leave. Tale as old as time.

i was disgusted to see a contractor get hired for "crystal reports"

Fucking hate working with Pajeets. I swear Indians are not human

theres something called slides, tests, and exam. not to mention in the pre req class it was a group project with git where u had to pull constantly.

His pattern is correct for SOLID design. That's the D in SOLID. Dependency Inversion. You want to pass external dependencies in as constructors because then you can unit test it.

The way you had it, you couldn't test your classes without a real copy of a board. With his method you can pass in a test copy of the board. Not so important for a game program in a class, but imagine if it was a data access layer to a production database.

You need to use a dependency injection system to create your classes. That will handle creating the object and passing it as a constructor. Later, if you want to change it from a singleton to a multi-instance you can configure it in the factory.

It being a singleton is irrelevant. What's relevant is unit testing and compossibility. When the external dependency is passed in the constructor you can pass in a mock of the dependency letting you test it without requiring the infrastructure to create a real object (database connections, internet access, authentication, etc).

The issue of having to pass in the constructor is solved by using a factory to create your objects (Dependency Injection). You configure the factory to know how to make a "A". Then when "B" needs an "A" it makes an "A" (if required, or passes in a copy if it's a singleton) and makes a "B". Then when "C" needs a "B" it makes the "B" and the "A" and you don't have to worry about any of it. You just tell the factory if you want a singleton or a session based instance or a new instance every time.

Yeah the tone of the post is painfully 'I get good grades and I am a good, smart boy :)"

We were interviewing a young guy and he absolutely crushed the first interview. I was ready to hire him then. But in our second interview we asked him to present some code that he wrote to us and walk us through it. There were literally no constraints. Just walk us through anything. He presented some non-functional website that randomly selected items out of a database. Not the whole web site, just a single method, and it was a holy mess. This thing should have been 10 lines long at most, but was 80 and it clearly didn't work and clearly needed a lot of work before it would be functional.

It was a junior dev position so we expected some sloppiness, but it was pretty sad.

Our jr dev actually has the most time on the team i don't know how that dumb bitch managed to be with a company almost five years and still Jr. Cant even do basic shit right.

>be a discussion forum
>someone tries to discuss a topic
>i'm a huge faggot and try to shit on him because my life sucks

Ha - we had a dev like that. Eternal intern. He was only kept around because the president found him entertaining.

I once changed where some files were stored (moved all redux to a single folder) and the kid's brain fucking bricked.

He had to ask another dev (the person that got him hired) what I meant.

Was at a small company where I got some clout and they were okay with me being racist against curries. They just dumped shitloads of cash into an app that was actually just a fake static website, nobody figured it out. Company was in India. One week we get too into backend tasks and they are retarded and think that because nothing changed on the frontend, nothing was getting done. Reached out to me to hire a frontend dev, wouldn't listen about how this week was backend shit. Told them not to hire a curry. Next week they hire a curry. They literally dump pages upon pages of fucking javascript to do basic tasks. Import a different version of some shitty json library without knowing where to put it so it will be included everywhere despite me telling them. For example something you could do by just toggling one CSS class, they write 20 pages of fucking javascript to try to account for everything by force on the page. Do a code review and tell them this is bullshit, owners don't know what they're looking at. Have to wait 2 weeks for frontend tasks to accumulate. Spend a couple extra unpaid hours to get all their shit done. Show up next day and tell them what I did. Only then do they fire the curry on the spot. Within a month all their code was replaced.

20%? You are way too optimistic, user.

Please validate that I'm smarter than my classmates

If the client is paying you for a deploy server where shit like this can get caught then that's on them.

Nothing towards you because all VB is just supporting legacy apps and it's not like you decided this, but 99% chance this happened because of fucking retarded recruiters that have their heads way way up their asses that can't figure out what .net is after 20 years. Every time I'm on the job market I get contacted by shithead recruiters that are "super curious why I said I had 10 years of experience in .net but nothing mentioned in it". They are either hiring for VB, or they are quantum in the sense of, if you mention C# they will suddenly say C# is not .net and go back to the 20 year old definition when VB was more popular than it for only like 1-2 years. Don't even get me started on faggots who mix it up with asp and .net core. Literally every nigger recruiter is like this, I have 15 years of C# experience but they jump around between VB, asp, IIS, azure, and .net core and don't know that 99% of the time this is gonna mean you did it in C#. Yes I know recruiters are just worthless niggers who just change your resume and dump keywords in there and occasionally get a commission, but it's incredible how you can even ask them, so, you've failed 100% of candidates for not having "vb dot core asp" experience haven't you? and I've gotten them to admit yes this is the 5th round of hiring but they won't change

>his guy gave a presentation and proceeded to denigrate his teammates for not working for 3 minutes straight

not a good solution, but I still know very well how a person ends up at the point where shit like that starts to seem like a good idea

>out of 10 programmers 2 know what they are doing
This applies to everything. It's know as Sturgeon's Law.

are you one of those people who asks everyone 5000 simple questions that could have been googled in like 2 seconds each?
it's not just the fat autist who lacks the social grace to pretend to be nice to you who hates you - it's everyone

git is a plague.

I can confirm they do this on the job, too. When they start the job after having lied their way through the interview, what they do is try to ask you without garnering too much attention. They will ask you over direct message in whatever chat program you use, to do a "quick" call. They always say that, "quick call". They will talk about a bunch of bullshit to make the call last really long, then start asking you the basic questions that were in the job posting ie they were required to know. The reason they do this is because first off, they know that calls take longer to listen to than screenshots of what they wrote, and second they know even if you recorded it, it's to engineer the higher up person supposedly listening to it to give up after 10 minutes of the bullshit at the beginning. Never ever ever ever EVER accept random calls from people new on the job, it's always for this reason.

Cookie crumbs are king.

Nothing wrong with prints. I've found and fixed some things just by using a log file that probably would have been more difficult to debug in a debugger. This is generally the case if you don't know where the issue is.

I know prints are useful, but imagine only using them for the rest of your life

>In my game dev class this guy gave a presentation and proceeded to denigrate his teammates for not working for 3 minutes straight until the professor told him to stop and gtfo because he was so mad
I would pay to see this. I still get mad when I think about the Nigerian on my team who skipped almost every class and didn't ever contribute anything but showed up for our final presentation so he could graduate. The professor didn't give a shit and we couldn't kick him out.

Oh man, I am laughing at your life OP. The premise of this thread is hilarious You're trying to be condescending to people by making the thread about jobs, but you yourself are barely skilled (aka a fucking noob zoomer) so you have to tell a story about your uni class.

It's normal to ask a question in class. It's bizarre they had to do something anonymously. What if they have a learning disability or fell asleep in class? It doesn't really matter, ultimately, class is a fairly low stakes environment where the point is learning. if the student is able to learn, that's what matters.

I notice that your filename is "brain.png". I'm assuming you organize your data poorly (if at all) or had some kind of data failure, likely due to your own ineptitude when it comes to operating computers. You wouldn't need to search "brainlet" if you just had them saved. The fact you renamed the file when saving it (probably from some kind of hex code from google or external.duckduckgo.jp) sort of tells me everything I need to know - simultaneously incompetent and acutely self aware of it - so you need to try to find someone to pick on

I don't care about your greentext story from your shitty bootcamp you absolute fucking autistic mongoloid. That's even more pathetic than the OP because you were too fucking pathetic to even get ACCEPTED to a university lmfao

>They literally dump pages upon pages of fucking javascript to do basic tasks.
good morning sir

> What if they have a learning disability or fell asleep in class?
You mean "what if they were retarded"?

Paid bootcamps are memes, unpaid bootcamps that use ISAs are superior to university because they don't spend 3.5 years to teach you progressively less the "wrong" way and cite some bullshit that doesn't work out. Real bootcamps work because they know how to filter niggers and make them sign an ISA, they don't succeed unless you do.

>learning disability
This is fake news, bullshit that losers make up for the perfect excuse and not ever have to hold a job and work. ADHD, autism, aspergers, are all 100% made up. You can change a child's handedness, ie there are many many documented cases of schools turning left handers into right handers, so you can teach a kid at a young age that their made up social or fake brain disease is a lie. The only thing that happened is it started to become less acceptable to do that to a child, that's all.

He's a chud retard who thinks more difficulty == more knowledger

>This is fake news
>Genetic differences are fake
>Pray the gay away

Stop derailing the thread also

No matter how good of a story you build up and tell yourself, what matters is that you are going to get filtered from the private sector which is all that matters. When you say this in an interview it means you do not want to do work and nobody is going to hire you. Long term goal you are only hurting yourself by trying to pretend you have some fake trendy mental disease, you only get out of a few years of school work because of it, that's why this shit took off. You don't have ADHD/autism/aspergers faggot

Thanks Jocko, you make a really compelling rebuttal

Cool story bro, I love how the theory I learned in college was so shallow that I can't even hold a water cooler conversation about the topic. Not only that, college is 4 years, and there's so much filler classes, I'm pound to forget shit. Not to mention if I wanted to learn theory, I would go to wikipedia.
College is for networking. If you want to application of CS get internship, theory of CS do research. Professors are just a waste of time
Still, American colleges suck ass
I will fail that, especially if I'm on my windows partition. What code can I show? All of my code for personal projects was shit because it was for myself.

But asking to check my code, when I might have niggers tongue my anus as a commit, that's too much.

Had a coworker who wrote his entire CRM in PHP + MySQL + Apache . I'm calling those out very specifically because I mean JUST those things. He very deliberately excluded any package managers, he did not use filesystems for storage or serving of images. He LITERALLY only used those three things. Technically platform agnostic because he literally did not interface with the filesystem at all.

This motherfucker encoded every file, whether it be a zip download, or an image, as a bas64 string and stored it in MySQL. The jumbotron banner on the home page was a base64 encoded string stored and retrieved FROM the database on every load. Doing it that way and embedding it into the page also fucks with caching, so it had to be done every time for every image.

The homepage was a 17 second load, and absolutely fucking massive since base64 is obviously going to take more space than the fucking image itself served from disk

>autism
It's not for me. I think however, I became a fucking sociopath. I know what people want to say unless they're emotionally vulnerable. I do great in work and I'm a kissless virgin

Sounds based as hell

>Had a coworker
Sounds like a pajeet.

They ended up wasting my time because the owner transferred management of the company to his retarded son and literally expected me to log on at 3am, within 10 seconds of him posting "hi", which I was also expected to understand meant "I just looked at another random product we've never talked about before and want to change the whole app again". So I should post it, it's not like anyone from there would recognize it.

Also, as another person in this thread made mention, they also did, in the javascript framework, the:
>parent( ).parent( ).parent( ).child( ).parent( )
etc instead of just doing the equivalent of a "find the first X". They did use the find function so they knew about it. They purposefully spammed parent( ).child( ) etc so shit would break on purpose with one change. All curries are like this

Because they are trying to game the system, agile/scrum whatever, 3 months down the line, they know the system the company uses will mark it that they did the ticket. They are bullshit artists and they know it.

Worked with similar retards who don't know what a cache is or even an attempt how they'd do it, they always make the program do everything from scratch and not try to bake or cache anything, again not under pressure asked on the spot but given months. Everything is a database call and the company ends up with a $10K a month CPU bill or something like that, they always say "not my problem" or "would have worked and been fast if we just dumped a hundred thousand per month on it"

>>Had a coworker
Believe it or not it actually wasn't. It was for a computer repair place that had it's own software team. The CEO was a psychotic retard who was openly white supremacist, and hired this starbucks faggot (actual homosexual -- everyone knew because he wouldn't shut the fuck up about it) who did all this shit. He was there 4 years before he finally quit and left his dumpster fire behind.

>have coworkers
Thats my story.

Kek. I realized the value of caching when I had 1K reads an hour of my application from one user

>The CEO was openly white supremacist
Sounds based. He probably saved you a lot of headache by not hiring niggers and pajeets.

>A web application rendered entirely, all HTML, styles and JS with ASP response.write(...) and if...else clauses. Used an old IBM DB2 database with horrible Java-based management software.
And of course all queries were just string concat with no checks for injection. At least it wasn't public facing and actually worked well enough that I didn't need to touch it except a few times.

>ASP.NET Webforms single page applications that loaded every view, many with large-ish datasets (of course with no proper server-side pagination) every time and navigation using jQuery to hide or show them.
Maybe it was fine when there wasn't that much data and different views but the horror when we were asked to make it faster and saw why it was so slow.

Of course, you can all kinds of financial benefits from being the most productive and most skilled in any place you go to. Companies will be more likely to give you counter offers for example. At least till they find a replacement.

But you shouldn't take counter offers: it lets them know you're thinking of leaving and train a replacement.

No because we listen to specific events generated by our frontend, it's not a simple REST api

I hate derivatives so fucking much it's unreal

Why not? I've taken 2 counter offers from my employer in the past 4 years and I'm perfectly happy working there since I have a lot of control over my area of work. It was a bit of a bluff, since I wanted more money but didn't really want to leave.

>no staging platform

Huh, I thought they would kick you out for that. I guess I"m wrong

While I'd normally agree the guy was also an unironic fucking psychopath. He literally broke labor laws all the time and treated even his own employess subhuman. As much as I hate virtue signalling niggerlovers, I'd honestly rather work for someone like that over this guy

>As much as I hate virtue signalling niggerlovers, I'd honestly rather work for someone like that
No, you wouldn't. In fact, assuming you're a straight white man, you wouldn't stand a chance getting hired by a nigger lover.

At that job with that piece of shit, I was paid like shit, not given WFH accommodations, despite medical needs, told to clock out and continue working, and was issued death threats twice.

At my current job, I'm paid 6x (not including benefits, which are worth more than my old base salary), permanent WFH (pre-COVID), I get insane pay bumps each year, retention bonuses, etc, and have insane tenure. And this CEO is a blatant niggerlover. We spent all of February listening about niggers -- but hey, at least I get paid for it and I can shitpost on Any Forums screaming nigger the whole time to let off some steam.

If you hide your powerlevel, sometimes the more liberal companies are still the better option. They pay better and treat you better -- so long as you can hide your power level and can prove you're a 10xer that makes up for all the niggers they're hiring. Even the smart niggerlovers know they gotta hire some real talent to prop up their dead weight.

What was the story of you finding this job and beating out chinks, fags, niggers, and SJWs competing for jobs in tech atm?

I had a friend who was a senior software engineer in the company. The tech support team (not like retard tier IT, actual custom hardware support) needed some part time contractors. The team was neglected so upper management didn't give a shit. I got personally referred, hit it off with the manager, and worked my ever loving ass off. I worked so hard and had such a reputation in the company, I went form part time contractor to full w2. Even when we had company layoffs a year later -- they literally laid off my manager, my coworker, and my referrer, but kept me around with financial incentives to stay because of just how critical I was to the company.

A friend of mine got into an interview for an American company and said if all went well he would go to America. He got the two vaccines he was against and guess what, he's still here.
This guy thought he had the knowledge and two of his friends (one is literally half a nigger but more intelligent than this larpy "natsoc", Any Forums btfo) told him to prepare with Leetcode. Didn't listen, got filtered.

And the endless amounts of people who either show me stuff that's a holy grail to them and I knew for years.
Or the ones that take weeks to do stuff I do in 2 days. And the time someone asked me how I got 8/10 and told me to share my solutions but I literally always did them the morning prior to the class.
Insane. People who want a compsci degree will just study it and grind it and try their luck here in Europe...

I'm guessing I'll either reach the top or live a happy life doing the bare minimum as a time thief, telling the SCRUM manager fag that it will take me two weeks, do it the day after and fuck my gf for the rest of the two weeks.
Which ties to another story: my brother is a frontend webshitter but a good one. He told me a lot of his frens do what I mentioned above: great coders but they can live like absolute kings with a "mediocre" salary so they do the bare minimum to get shit done.
That's why projects don't get done: the mfs who don't know don't meet deadlines; the mfs who do know spend their time doing other shit.

Offshore coworker who didn't improve his CSS skills in the 3 months he was working on a project despite multiple attempts to teach him. Refused multiple times to even google how to do vertical scrolling. Very sloppy programming. Poor indenting. Total mess. He would write overly complicated code to do something very simple. Worst of all, he hardly replies to messages and emails. My boss insists on keeping him because it's economical. I don't know what's his problem.

If you don't do unit tests, you've never written any complicated programs before.

>parent( ).parent( ).parent( ).child( ).parent( )

I've noticed this pattern too. I wonder if they doing to exaggerate the amount of actual work needed or they're blindly following what they learned in their courses.

Interned at a company as during training as sysadmin.
Told the current sysadmin of that company that the root certificate of their PKI had been expired for 4 months.
His answer: "I don't know what that is, you fix it."
That's when I learned that they had never used certificates properly, had never made any of their 400 computers part of their domain (too lazy) and were manually moving certificates between computers with flash drives.

>direct message in whatever chat program you use, to do a "quick" call.
I work with a bunch of relatively weak programmers from a variety of backgrounds.
It's ALWAYS this shit. I'm at a point now where I actually chat back "What is your question?" and I reject the call until they can summarize what they need.
It's almost always a git fuckup or that they didn't understand the story to begin with. Occasionally it's a code bug that they don't understand, and very rarely it's a paperwork fuckup that I'd need to correct anyway.
I enjoy helping people, but I'm past the point of taking bullshittery and at some point people just need to learn to google.

>My boss insists on keeping him because it's economical.
many such cases

unit tests only work for simple programs
complicated programs cant be meaningfully unit tested

>complicated programs cant be meaningfully unit tested

You won't catch everything, but at least you would know that the core functionality is still working as expected.

>at least you would know that the core functionality is still working as expected
Like I said, only if your program is simple

>You won't catch everything
Unfortunately bean-counters only hear "automate the unit testing" and then lay-off all QA roles. And then the same bean counters complain when bugs go up.
In modular design, you can be sure that contracts are upheld at least. That is, you give an object like X to method 1, and get an object that looks like Y back. It's valuable but not complete assurance.

Not quite dumb tech, but I remember when I got from college I felt like I was lacking behind because I had to learn our framework etc.

I started with another boomer they got from another department. After a few weeks, he was still working on his first task and the project lead reassigned it to me. It was just some copy&paste problem that has been solved before somewhere else in the code base.

Since then I didn't feel like I was the dumbest guy in there lol

they always want to record the meeting too

Or a simple pareto distribution.
20% elites, 80% peasants.

I wish an interviewer asked me to walk them through my code right away. I only have 1 project that I feel is worth publishing and it's still below my standards and far from finished. It would be reassuring if I could explain myself, what works and what doesn't and why and what I need to work on. It feels dirty to just throw my project at people hoping they can understand my intentions. The documentation is quite outdated too.

Mocking static method's isn't really a good solution.

That's just stupid. When I want to discuss something with someone, I always call them. When you have to debate something, the feedback loop is much tighter than writing chat messages. Context is a lot easier too.

I've written more complicated software than most people on this board.

You'll hurt their feelings

I had to sit for 8 hours straight with a bunch of curries to fix their scanning scripts because despite not knowing any scripting they volunteered to write them.
Of course they got all the credit, to this day I'm pretty sure the scripts that run on thousands of client servers don't actually find anything, because the logic is shit (and I couldn't rewrite it, because first I'd be responsible for all the shitshow, second the "logic" was supplied by security as fucking powerpoint slides, that I didn't have).
What's even funnier is that the security guys didn't want to write this themselves, because they said they don't know how.

Haha, reminds my my first project.

Gross I wouldn’t touch Any Forums with a ten foot stick

I'll admit it's really enjoyable to inherit a codebase handcrafted by some senile old fuck who retired 2 weeks ago at the age of 70 because he never wrote documentation, tests, and knew ins and outs of entire software, and the company thought he would write tests and docs if they paid him more.

Kill yourself, please.

>>prints for debugging
>That's how most people do it. Even the best programmers go back to the tried and true shitload-of-prints method of debugging despite intricate knowledge of debuggers. You just can't beat it.
Wrong.

>>Pray the gay away
That one actually works. People are brainwashed into being retards.

So they can refer back later. Not everybody is intelligent, and many people "learn" at a slower pace. That is why you are senior and they are junior.

Not really. I know plenty of very good programmers and debuggers have their place, but you always eventually come back home, to just a shitload of prints.

Did your coworker invent wordpress?

>That's how most people do it. Even the best programmers go back to the tried and true shitload-of-prints method of debugging despite intricate knowledge of debuggers. You just can't beat it.
you're retarded
shitloads of prints are a fallback for when you dont have anything better

Again, wrong. Logging has its place, but you can't just beat putting a breakpoint on a line and then touching processes memory inappropriately.

Wrong again, debugging is fine, but prints are just dead simple and less manual. Debugger is something you break out for specific issues that you can't debug with the usual methods.

Also, not all debuggers are equal. Some languages that are higher level have very comfy debuggers that are a joy to use, while some low level languages have debuggers that are just very tedious to use. In most cases it's just faster to just add some prints.

Wrong. Printing requires system calls, and may call stringifying method, WHICH might modify state. Just stop posting, you fucking retard.

Entire thread is a nightmare. It's all rainbow flags and preferred pronouns.

sorry, i was busy playing touhou and need something to refer to later

Wrong. Just because you CAN use a jackhammer doens't mean a hammer isn't fine for most tasks.

Printing requires:
Modifying code
May modify state
May introduce more instability into the system
May cause application to fail

Debugging requires:
attaching to process and interacting with memory

Kill yourself.

Debugging requires:
tedious looking through memory for what you need
slow an painful step by step checking of statements
additional tooling you might not have available

Prints require:
Just a print

Neck yourself.

Not the guy youre replying to but you seem like a insuferable faggot, printing is absolutely fine, ive never seen a single case where printing (for debugging purposes) introduced instability and the possible state modification is meaningless in 99.99% of the cases, debugging is a anti pattern

Lmao Jesus christ

You should've told someone more senior that the sysadmin didn't know what a root cert is, that's genuinely unbelievable

Are there really retards in here trying to argue in favour of printing over a debugger

what are you going to do, sue me?

Nothing except laugh at you for doing something the inefficient way

Look at this faggot, that breaks out a debugger to for every single tiny issue he encounters while programming. I bet you also measure seasoning with a microgram scale when seasoning a steak.

If you need to go through extra effort to use a debugger, your tools are crap. Not that that's your fault

Any remotely efficent language needs to be compiled in debug mode to have a debugger work properly

>If you need to go through extra effort to use a debugger, your tools are crap. Not that that's your fault
Look at this nigger, with the luxury to use only good tools, and not what's available/necessary.

As I said, quality of tooling depends on language, lower level languages usually have painful to use debuggers, higher level ones less so. Point stands regardless, write>run>change is a much nicer workflow than write>run>fail>add-breakpoint>run>step-by-step-debug>change.

Stop being such a fucking snob.

>write>run>change is a much nicer workflow than write>run>fail>add-breakpoint>run>step-by-step-debug>change.
No
It's write a program with a print statement, or write it with a breakpoint
It's easier to sit a breakpoint than write a print statement
I'm not being a snob, I'm just telling you you're wrong
Print statements are the worst debugging method, a fallback for when you don't have anything better

Here we have a retard that is powerless in any language that doesn't have all sorts of tools to hold baby's hand.

that's like saying because I drive a car I must not know how to walk
C is my second most used language, and I've never used a debugger for it, a proper debugger is still the best

>It's easier to sit a breakpoint than write a print statement
You're assuming the only variables you are interested in are available within that thread you're debugging. Also, breakpoints are fucking pointless when you're debugging an issue that isn't appearing consistently, but instead is dependent on other factors.

Where do you set a breakpoint when you're getting an error from a library about a failed connection or an authentication error or a timeout? What is that breakpoint giving you you massive faggot?

Print statements gives you feels of inebriating power, tho.

Absolutely ridiculous. Peak dunning-kruger.

Prints are a tool just like debuggers. For someone that has to bounce around between different languages that may or may not have great debugging tools, it's nice to know that you can often fall back on a few trusty prints.

Yep. No humility and zero willingness to be kind and helpful to the people around them.

These kids are gonna learn the hard way how to function in society, let alone in a team of programmers within a company.

Not true. The only people being peeved are the ones that would do well even without the lectures. You keep asking those questions user, I can guarantee that others in class appreciate that someone in is asking questions so that they don't have to.

Might not help this time, but next time you start an internship or regular job, see if there is someone else that is new that you can do pair programming with on the same tickets. It helps keep you accountable and you can take turns being in the driver seat.

Other than that, if it's a challenge to focus when you're at home, take the opportunity as soon as you can to actually get in to the office instead.

Good luck user.

In spirit I agree with you, but in practice there's no time loss in searching "how to encode spaces in url params" and implementing a rudimentary correct way instead of deciding to encode and decode the parameters in hexadecimal.

Huh? I'm talking about the case where the T is null / not present.

Again. What travesty of a type system allows such heresy?

the shit was already taught in the current class and the pre req class. how retarded do you have to be to not understand that despite it clearly being in the post. did not expect your retard kind to comment on my post. I can already tell you are a neet with no job or degree. I got a great job lined up after graduation, the manager liked my speaking style and passion, I'm doing very good thank you.

null should have never existed btw, avoid it as much as possible, read an article about how it only makes bugs. also that is a retarded function signature. You either pass that in all the time or you set a default value if not or you don't pass it in at all. it accepting null is a stupid edge case accept.

Well, it helps to have spent approx. 7+ years of your life managing servers, working on open-source projects and tinkering with things. Once you've shown that you can find eloquent solutions on Google people will consider hiring you if you're able to be personable and answer their questions on in an interview.

It's... the entire point of an Optional? Many languages have this.

>It's... the entire point of an Optional?
It's the antithesis to optional.
f = fun
| Some x -> g x

simply doesn't compile in any reasonable type system.
If your type system allows you to ignore the Nothing case, it's shit and should be burnt.

your code snippet doesn't have an Optional anywhere in it so I'm going to assume you're a retard

>Should I stop jerking off/playing games to kill the addiction?
This, but also keep in mind that willpower is a limited resource and it depends on your energy, which means it's much more difficult to make yourself be productive if you're tired.
Put getting enough sleep as your highest priority, because it refills the willpower and the rest is just training your brain to listen to you instead of itself. Maybe try exercising every day, an hour a day worked wonders for me mentally, made it easier to be disciplined.
I could stop jerking off, but not gaming, which is fine, since I don't do it all day (gaming less actually made it more enjoyable). You can also try eating more bland food if you have any on disposal, it will also train your brain to not expect a lot of stimulation. If you were gaming and jerking off regurarily for some time, you've probably gone numb to it, so giving your brain time to reset a bit and get some sensitivity back will free more time for productivity and you'll get more out of fun activities.

I posted this story before but honestly it still kind of hard it really happened.
>find job in a security company, actual classified stuff
>always saying they are building a cyber team
>I'm the only IT person in the company so of course i try to place myself in the coming cyber team.
>first i tell them that maybe the server that we are using to store the classified stuff (which is illegal) shouldn't have an easy to guess password and we shouldn't all share the same password
>other stuff like that made me wonder how we didn't actually get hacked by the Russians or something every days
>fast forward more than two years later : ho yeah, we're still building the cyber team
>nothing has been done
>except that we have a guy whose been trying to install a vpn on the server for two full years and still can't do it
>offered him help but he instead brag about being an expert (he was always doing shit like this)
>i first stayed for two years cause the clients were cool and i thought it might become interesting
>then the rona hit and it was impossible to change job
>our manager left the company and new manager seems to actually build the cyberteam
>i talk to him about me being in it
>he hires all of his friends and already was friend with vpn guy
>put bpn guy as the only guy in the cyber team
>i try asking him cy er related questions
>he laughed at me for thinking a password could be bypassed or guessed
>designed "hack proof" systems that were only protected by a password
>literally had failed all his security screenings but now was working on classified stuff without the clients knowing
>kept braging about being a cyber expert

I left the company since but god damn they are some real larpers out there

>post stories of retarded devs
>retarded devs

What the fuck is even going on with the structure of the first sentence? The only way I can explain that away is that you're either indian or have some form of polysomy.

Stop complaining like a dumb bitch. Improve your own skills and use them instead of being proud of your really clean to-do-list-react project. Oh wait, you can't do that, you're too busy complaining about how "woe is me" the world outside your bootcamp is.

He's writing some form of ML. Some(x) would be equivalent to Optional(x), None would be equivalent to Optional(null). I think that's some pattern match that translates to Option(x).map(x -> g(x))

Going back to this faggot's point (>85453354), he's right. Optional where the inner variable is null should shortcircuit to doing nothing if you use Optional properly, (eg map, flatmap). He probably finds words difficult to use due to the debilitating autism induced by using ML or any other functional programming language unironically. Many such cases.

The only way the production issue above could have happened is if your team uses .get on an Optional, or even worse, you explicitly sent null to a variable that had an Optional type. In both cases the only viable conclusion is that you and your teammates are a bunch of retards, so you at least kept with the theme of the thread.

>government institutions being hilariously incompetent
Why is this a surprise? These people are FUCKING RETARDED.

Story time:
>work for an ETL contractor
>works a few projects for the government
>EU money comes in for automation
>they start automation projects for BIG money
>the company I work for is fucking garbage
>tiny room in a flat with like 6 meh-level devs + me + my mentor who was decent
>jump between projects constantly because of deadlines
>one for department of security
>one for department of healthcare
>one for department of immigration
>every time it goes like this
>deadline for checkup comes up
>we scramble to make ANYTHING
>go there and essentially demo the tech we're using
>show them the scraps that we started making
>mostly juts explain tools we use rather than what we built
>"this IBM DB2 database allows us to leverage cloud-based XaaS technolgies and synergizes with PaaS systems to provide smar BI solutions"
>I swear it was garbage like that
>every fucking time it's some old farts that can BARELY send an email
>"oh yeah, that looks very promising, great stuff, keep going"
>mfw millions of EUR in funding goes into this project
>it's literally just a glorified IBM DataStage pipeline and a DB2 with a single dashboard
I only lasted like 9 months there, and left, because I was getting very frustrated and managed to gest a much better offer, but ti was an amazing shitshow. The company actually imploded few days after I left out of pure anger because another decent engieer there that was mentoring me decided "FUCK THIS" and essentially just took all the devs, made his own company, and they all left on the same day and took over most of the gov projects. Instead of most money going to the fat cat they split it mostly evenly amongst themsleves.

I have cut out cannabis and games from my life, now i can dedicate a few hours everyday to work

It werks

Based. Now add physical exercise and a decent diet(with cheat days, of course) and you're off to a good start.

Darivatives are fine compare to integrales, they are such a pain to lern

Prints can make timing sensitive errors/bugs go away. It's more of an issue in concurrent low level code, especially hardware touching code
