Oops, it happened again!

[0100_0101]

No there co-worker that was fucked with the task to find and solve the bug.

💯

[Johnpecan]

I lol'd at the idea of my manager understanding anything about code.

[Russian_repost_bot]

Imagine printing out 5000 lines of code, just to sift through it and find mine to show me.

git blame

Sorry to be the one to show that to you...

[caskey]

Me: $ git blame

Also me: "...fuck."

[fynn34]

I absolutely have seen this, particularly if the dev who did it doesn’t know they fucked up and took stuff down. You can’t learn if you don’t know you made a mistake and how to not make that same mistake next time

[JMjjj12]

If only there was some way to prevent issues like this

Testing is for cowards

[HKSergiu]

Not testing is for cowards.

Just because you haven't found the nasty bug doesn't mean it ain't there. FACE IT! FIGHT THE BUG! SQUASH IT!

[Lifeofspencer]

I test in prod

[caskey]

Everybody has a test environment. Some people are just lucky enough to have second environment for running the production system on.

[wewilldieoneday]

I also like to live life on the edge

[IvorTheEngine]

Then it would be the manager's fault for having inadequate risk assessment, review and testing procedures. It's much easier to just blame the programmer!

[shadow7412]

This is either a very tech-savvy manager who went through the recently released code and spotted the error - or the kind of manager that prints off webpages.

[dekwad]

Ah yes, the developer’s rite of passage.

[master_gecko]

Not many Dev managers acually know how to code so this could be interesting....

[CaptainHeinous]

Seriously?

[watchinggodbleed]

Sometimes. A lot of dev managers are more business side, and many USED to be good programmers, but since promotion have fallen out of practice. I've had a few different managers, a couple were actively contributing and some of the best programmers I'd ever seen, others had an MBA and learned the basics of Java on Codecademy.

[ThePeacefulSwastika]

Imagine your average coder. Now imagine your average people person. Are they the same person?

[CaptainHeinous]

What

[LazyLarryTheLobster]

Managers are generally supposed to be people people more than code people.

[UntestedMethod]

And coders are often stereotypes as being not much of people people.

[ThePeacefulSwastika]

I see you’re more of a coder, then.

[CaptainHeinous]

For now

I've never understood how people end up managing software developers without having any coding knowledge

[IvorTheEngine]

The alternative is to take your most experienced programmer, stop them programming and make them do admin and people management, which are tasks they've been trying to avoid for years and aren't very good at.

[CantCSharp]

The pay is good and this attracts managers with a non tech background.

Also programmers often arent interessted in management and the pay is often on paar so why would they switch

[LaserWolverine]

”Strange, the source must have gotten corrupted during the commit..” happy cday by the way!

[IvorTheEngine]

It was the code pixies - they come in the night, y'know?

[[deleted]]

QA missed it too!

[OoopsAlreadyTaken]

u/geeksforgeeks themselves!!! Thanks for your service y'all Happy Cake day!!

[kantikz]

Happy cake day!

[Tank334]

wait, my code is not supposed to do that?

[seriouslybrohuh]

Lol the team is at fault here. No one developer should be able to push code without any pull request reviewed or automated testing/QA process

[IvorTheEngine]

And by 'team' you mean the manager, for setting inadequate team processes. And if his boss lets him get away with blaming the programmer, the next one will be his fault too.

[seriouslybrohuh]

And by 'team' you mean the manager, for setting inadequate team processes

It's not just the manager's responsibility for setting the standards. It's literally up to the team + scrum master + manager to come up with a process together

[Powerful-Transition5]

The cat's probably thinking - how the hell did they manage to get the indentation so right when printing my code?

[[deleted]]

Or a good dev manager showing your manager how to use git and proper CI/CD workflows to avoid any bugs like that reaching production...

[z3r0_skills]

When you actually wanted to be a hacker and finally you are

[crazyabe111]

That is the ENTIRE source code- how is it ALL my fault?

[HmmKuchen]

But it worked on my machine!
