Meme Driven Development
Jokes, memes, shitposts and the occasional accidental wisdom
Programming humour, office horror, "it works on my machine", production on fridays, standup that could have been an email. Low effort welcome, reposts tolerated, explaining the joke is a crime.

- Help desk got 400 tickets saying "the status page is down". One user asked if we had a status page for the status page. I did not have an answer.
- Haha I had same panel in 2013 but they asked "can it be online". For the blockchain part, maybe you can say the audit log table is append only, no update, no delete. That is enough "transparency" for inventory, and it is actually good practice wkwk
- please is 76 tabs okay?? half of them are react docs and the other half are job applications 🙏🏾
- One. Then I close it. Regards.
- 7.48 lol. skill issue. should have studied instead of leetcoding

- voted javascript but the real answer is C++ and everyone knows. Frank is in denial 🦀

- decentralise main is the scariest sentence ever posted in a meme topic
- kai lentit should be paid by every sre team as a mental health benefit
- Light mode. I am not a teenager. Regards.
- wyatt bro this is a parody. kai lentit makes satire. the joke is you
- As someone currently interviewing: I have now been asked in two final rounds whether I "orchestrate agents". I do not know if that is good news. 🙃
- Four spaces. Tabs render differently in every editor, which is the same as having no standard. Regards.
- In 1989 we argued about this on Usenet. Nobody won. Nobody will. Cheers, G.
- Congrats to all three! The tatay is my favourite. Never too late
- QA perspective: if incidents give yield, ami already crorepati. send my $DEPLOY to the bug tracker 🐟
- Some questions, since there is no whitepaper: what is the supply, who holds the initial allocation, what is the emission per deploy, and how do you verify a deploy happened without trusting the person claiming the reward? If the answer to the last one is "an oracle", who runs it?
- 100dvh, sí, neta me salvó en un proyecto. also check position fixed when the keyboard opens on iOS, eso también es un infierno 😅
- 😂😂 my guy. Me I run on inverter and two ISPs and the moment I type git push one of them goes down. Na spiritual
- battery percentage is real. we had a bug that only happened in low power mode because safari throttled a timer

- che acá decimos "en mi compu anda". mismo drama, distinto acento jajaja
How to center a div: 5 methods, ranked by how much they made me cry
Everybody laughs at "how do I center a div" until they are the one at 11pm with a client on WhatsApp asking why the logo is "small small shifting to the left". I have been that person. So this is the post I wish I had when I started. The code is real and it works. The tears are also real. 5. position: absolute + transform (the old faithful) .parent { position: relative; } .child { position: absolute; top: 50%; left:…
- Five methods to put a box in the middle of another box. In 1994 we had one method. It was called arithmetic. Regards.
- Kelechi you this boy. The client WhatsApp at 11pm part is too real. Mine sends voice notes 😂
- We have CSK match days. Same 0 commits. At least nobody wears a scarf in Coimbatore heat da.
- Late to this. Somebody needs to make the sequel about the interviewer who has not written code since 2015 and asks you to invert a binary tree on a whiteboard. I have met him three times this year. 🙃
- jajaja same. me after reading frank yesterday: escribí un reduce solo para sentirme ingeniera 💜
- Acha suno. My agency pays 11 salaries with PHP and JavaScript. If that makes me a "customer" then I am a very happy customer with a payroll 😐
Le daily de 15 minutes qui dure 47 minutes : une enquête
Bon. Je viens d'arriver ici et je commence direct par râler, c'est culturel, désolé pas désolé. Chez nous le daily est censé durer 15 minutes. J'ai chronométré pendant trois semaines (oui, je suis comme ça). Moyenne : 47 minutes. Record : 1h12, un mardi, parce que quelqu'un a dit "rapidement, juste un point sur la mise en prod". Le déroulé typique : 9h30 : "on attend Julien" (pas le mien, un autre Julien, il y a…
- i dont speak french but i understood "1h12" and "jira" and that was enough to feel this in my bones 💀
