i showed a QA how to spoof a JWT with the correct claims to access our systems if we failed to validate the signature somewhere, and then had to spend the next ten minutes convincing him that it was safe to put this in the test case and he wouldn't be arrested for documenting these elite hacking techniques

pick the programming language of your choice (tell me which it is in the tags so I can judge you)!

Something really struck me while reading @wallf1ower's recent post in response to a tag game, and I wanted to give my opinions in it.

Programming really does have a special place in my heart. It does not really look like it has any emotional value to it like art, or writing, or music but programmers know. I am so attached to it, it's my escape.

And it is also true that we sometimes get emotionally attached to a particular coding language, like a pet <3 due to many reasons. I did do a bit of Java as my first programming language in school, but Python was my key to the coding universe as I like to call it.

I love every second I spend in front of my laptop creating something, and knowing that although how hard the process may be, the output will be beautiful, and it will be my own creation, and I would be proud of it. This can be applied to any situation in real life, and it's surprising how programming has given me the confidence that I need to get through life.

It's funny how some things you like at a young age may seem temporary, but turn out to be the very element that shapes your future the way you love.

ruby on rails to me is like looking into a glimpse of what programming could have widely been if we didnt all fall into the capitalism tar pit

(programming anon) Do you have any book recommendations for beginners?

I can no longer recall my first textbooks on programming, but my favorite book is Clean Code by Robert Martin

no offence but the reason tumblr is “dying” is, well, yes, of course the cursed like/reblog ratio and the change in user behaviour (because of people being used to how instagram and tiktok work) BUT also the lack of weekly shows. i say it with my whole chest, they don't produce captivating and engaging stupid weekly tv shows anymore because streaming killed that so you have spikes of activity here when Something happens in general fandom or up to three days after a new season of whatever drops and then it's a wasteland. this is obviously an old woman yelling at a cloud missing supernatural and the vampire diaries and pretty little liars and all these other shows type of post but honestly give me back weekly tv shows where i have something to watch for 40 minutes almost every day of the week after work so then i can read and reblog it on tumblr give it back for the sake of my sanity

Does anyone have good tips for dealing with runtime/compile errors

[rabbiteclair]

we have a bug, where we aren't properly processing things when another system sends us an address that can't be geocoded i.e. can't be converted to GPS coordinates

my coworker picked up this bug. to test this, of course, he would need to find an address that Google wouldn't be able to tell us the coordinates for. so, he started looking for them, finding the addresses of, like, airport hangars and stuff. but, every single one he tried, Google could convert to coordinates. he spent hours trying to find an address that would stump Google, growing increasingly confused about how people even hit this bug in the first place

finally came to me for help and I handed him our examples from actual end user production data, which all look like

Street: freds garage City: State: Postal Code: Country: United States

Damian: This is bad

Jon: What is it?

Damian: I'm pretty sure the guy in the other soccer team was threatening me, but I didn't hear it because I was too busy staring at his thighs.

Jon: .....We're in different time zones, you know that? It's three in the morning for me here. When you call me at this time, it's ussually a emergency not a gossip session. I'm tried Damian, and I have class in the morning. I can't be a good exchange student if I'm falling asleep in class.

Damian: So? All my best work is at three am. Do better.

Jon: *sigh* Okay so the other guy is hot. What's his name?

Damian: Daniel Fenton. He's a foward. He's so attractive, I forget the human language when he speaks and only hear "Blah blah blah " but in a dreamy sigh kind of blah.

Jon: Uh-huh. And why was he threatening you?

Damian: I have no idea, I was too busy watching his lips move, and his thighs flexed as he stretched.

Jon: Right. Well, I'm sure once the soccer tournament is over you won't have to see him every again-

Damian: I think I asked his mother for his hand in marriage yesterday. I can't remember.

Jon: *Sigh* Of course you did.

I heard a theory that macaque disguised himself as wukong and this wukong was the one who met xianglu, I don't really believe in this theory but... imagining this happening is funny to me.

I love Bauhauzzo, and the lovely amounts of pun that went into his name, design, concept, and commentary on the art and design world.

I would happily sit and weep with him at the Everything that is and was and will be.
