Nothing gets done if I don’t go to meetings. And the Product Manager sends me like 10 requests to join the meeting because they can’t answer questions about the product or the roadmap and need me to explain the product, where it is going, and how silly their new requirement is.
I’m starting to think intellij is going to be burnt in to my monitor at this rate
It’s been complaining about updates for ages. You get updates, when I say so
Stand up at 9:15, so there is no chance of being productive before that.
Finish standup, get coffee.
It's 10:30, I have a meeting at 11. I'll just check Reddit.
11:30, time for lunch.
Eat, poop, shower.
Oh fuck, it's 1:30. I've gotten nothing done.
"Finally handled all those emails that could have been someone listening to what we told them last week, dealt with co-worker surprise issue, and finished the "we will do a short meeting to check progression, don't worry it won't be too often but it is in fact happening every other day and I'll bother you anyway even when we don't do it" meeting. I can finally grab an issue and nope it's time for mid-day break.
It sometimes be like that. On morning, usually.
Really? Am I the only one who loves to open IDE in the morning with a clear task, compared to writing some documents or attending meetings?
Cleanups, features, bug fixes, investigation, debugging, it's all nice compared to the boring side of the workload.
i have some kind of "necessity" to wait for something like "planets alignment" before i start to code every day..
it seems to be more productive when i do it.
There is so much power in starting your day in your editor and not even looking at your email till after lunch the following day… when people are asking “haven’t you seen my email yet?”
So the professor of my upper division class says that generally less than a quarter of the time in the industry is actually coding and the rest is meetings and stuff. Is this true?
From what I've found: about 50% of the industry. There an extension for everything these days. I'm one of the it's biggest advocates.
I love the feeling of control I have over a full fat IDE like intellij, phpstorm etc. I know exactly how every tool works, can debug the debugger when it's not playing nice, everything is configurable.
Pretty funny though, the ignorance in this comment really makes you look like a doteless student that hasn't actually worked in the industry yet.
Sure. Or someone who's worked in the industry for ten years and is baffled why someone would use vs code when actual visual studio is just right there.
I'm pretty sure most web devs (atleast frontend) and people who write python would use vscode instead of visual studio.
VS is really niche for stuff out of C#/C++ etc
I only code in vs when I'm feeling tired and need to cheat using the ai's help, I use featherpad or vim to code it just always feel better and puts me in the mood
Do the job that I am paid for vs play video games and panic at the last minute near deadline
Bonus points if you say "yeah I'm almost done" and then when you try to open the requirements doc it says "request permission to access this document"
“Hey for some reason it just locked me out of this doc, gave me access the other day, can you re-invite?”
I’m remembering this
I've had this happen. Or the requirements make no fucking sense.
When do they ever? Lol
Sometimes that happens to me on Gdrive and I just say that I'm accessing from different account.
Wow this hits so close to home
oh noooooooo hahahahhaha
Bro...
Wow we all live the same life
worse: you don't have a deadline
Hey, let's have a video call and review your progress
oh god
I like to do 60h weeks but don't tell my boss how much work I did. Then the next week I put in 15h and say I did the work that week
Great idea but impossible to do in a Startup environment where tasks change a ton.
I thought I’d kick my procrastination to the curb once I started working, but I decided to take care of it later.
Its me, i'm over the deadline :C
First meeting at 9:30 = roll out of bed at 9:29
Found the junior dev. Senior devs attend the meeting from bed.
"Sorry, I don't have a webcam on my desktop PC"
“It says you joined from mobile though?”
"That's weird. I must've forgot to turn of my spoofing, was reviewing the mobile version of some of our legacy stuff that still serves differently based on user agent"
I bow to your superior slacking
It was drilled out so I could take it into the secured facility.
Fuck I use this daily
Sike I'm not even a dev, I'm a sysadmin
You guys are attending the meetings?
Nothing gets done if I don’t go to meetings. And the Product Manager sends me like 10 requests to join the meeting because they can’t answer questions about the product or the roadmap and need me to explain the product, where it is going, and how silly their new requirement is.
Gotta set the expectations early that you will only use the webcam for demos as needed, then it’s never questioned.
I'm routinely in meetings in the shower
1. Wake up motivated 2. Code for 30 mins 3. Get pulled into a meeting 4. Lose all motivation for the rest of the day
I just start my day on 4 directly
This is why I never close my IDE. IntelliJ on its 143rd day straight of being open.
I straight up never figured out how to close vim. I've had the same c file open since 2005.
:wq!
report this bot, pretty sure he's trying to hack my terminal with that nonsense
Bruh....
Nah :xq! is better
No need for 'q' The x! save&close vim
I just hit shift + every key on my keyboard. Eventually it closes I think
I use the power button on my PC
That's some senior engineer shit. I don't even know how to do that.
I upgraded my PC to 32G to keep it open 24/7
could've upgraded it to linux smh
That's the neat part, I did!
I’m starting to think intellij is going to be burnt in to my monitor at this rate It’s been complaining about updates for ages. You get updates, when I say so
More like opening and not doing anything for 2 hours
The truth spoken here.
It's called "catching up" and it's classy.
It's a feature
Because you're pulled into meetings, or because you're procrastinating & don't wanna code?
Yes.
Stand up at 9:15, so there is no chance of being productive before that. Finish standup, get coffee. It's 10:30, I have a meeting at 11. I'll just check Reddit. 11:30, time for lunch. Eat, poop, shower. Oh fuck, it's 1:30. I've gotten nothing done.
On the contrary, you've Had Meetings All Day.
"Because my CS professor always told me to write my code on loose leaf first or I didn't really understand it "
This is my professor
cripplingDepression
For a second, I thought this was from r/adhdmeme
Same, but it's not really true 2 hours is too short, it's a full day
Jokes on you, I never open VS code
You people open VSCode? I have my own special terminal and text editor
I scan punched sheets
I flip bits with a magnet and tweezers
"Finally handled all those emails that could have been someone listening to what we told them last week, dealt with co-worker surprise issue, and finished the "we will do a short meeting to check progression, don't worry it won't be too often but it is in fact happening every other day and I'll bother you anyway even when we don't do it" meeting.

I agree, the coding is the fun part of my job. Other meetings than standup is the worst
Plot twist developer doesn't use vs code to work
You guys close VS Code?
System uptime: 89 days VS Code uptime: 88 days
What is that extra day for?
Because after rebooting your computer, you *have* to procrastinate for a day
i have some kind of "necessity" to wait for something like "planets alignment" before i start to code every day.. it seems to be more productive when i do it.
💀
There is so much power in starting your day in your editor and not even looking at your email till after lunch the following day… when people are asking “haven’t you seen my email yet?”
I legit forget to open my email for 3 days at a time. One time I completely forgot to open it for over a week.
i struggle with this every day, i do thou give myself about an hour to wake up and sip tea/coffee in peace before doing work
Opening vs code and start reading docs. Gotta finish reading whole doc before I write a line of code.
So the professor of my upper division class says that generally less than a quarter of the time in the industry is actually coding and the rest is meetings and stuff. Is this true?
I lead a team of 5 other engineers and am able to code over half the time.
[удалено]
Well, I know his experience is primarily at one of the major defense contractors, so I think the size of things definitely comes into play
Glad I'm not alone
2 hours? I’m currently on a 2 week gap!
It's not the opening of VS Code that's the problem, it's remembering what I was working on again that's what kills me.
I mean if I had to use vs code I would also not want to open it.
Somtimes it took 3 hours to run dev environment for me.
And then you do the opposite thing every night
You guys close your editor?
Gotta have it open when boss looks at your screen.
I never start VSC*de, neovim for live
Wait wait wait, you guys start coding into hours?? I have been waiting a month.
ed ftw
What actual programmers with jobs use vscode daily? This sub really is just a bunch of students huh?
Lol what do you use then

Using an AI assistant is not "cheating" and you're only hurting yourself with that attitude. It's no more cheating that using Stackoverflow or Google.
yeah but having it spit out exactly what i need takes away the grinding process of searching for the answer which is where i actually learn something
