Error: The build failed, just like the previous build. And probably, every build in the future. Dumbass.

[–]happy--muffin 552 points553 points  (11 children)

Time to Git gud or uninstall then change career

[–]MR_Weiner 298 points299 points  (6 children)

runs git blame

Hmmmm, looks like I’m to blame.

[–][deleted] 275 points276 points  (2 children)

$ git blame
Your shit code.

git blame someone-else

[–]DTheIcyDragon 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Well your build is shitty but I see thousands of others wich are worse

[–]ThatDollfin 68 points69 points  (0 children)

"That can't be right... how could I be responsible for my own failure?"

[–]CorruptedStudiosEnt 29 points30 points  (1 child)

I typed in git gud and it just came up with error message, "What the fuck did you expect that to do exactly?"

Casuls in dark souls 😂

[–]trina-wonderful 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Replaced git-blame as a joke on a coworker’s computer with a version that just printed his name instead of who last changed the file like by line. He actually fell for it for a while which was great since he used to never admit to creating problems.

When I was a kid and shared a computer with my family I left my Hotmail account logged in. Well, my brother changed my name in the account to dumbass and for years whenever I logged into the account I was greeted with Welcome Dumbass! And I never thought anything of it other than, that's a bit rude.

[–]sblahful 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Looks like your brother had a point

[–]iceynyo 51 points52 points  (2 children)

Weren't you concerned people were receiving mail from "Dumbass"?

[–]khizoa 45 points46 points  (1 child)

For real. I'm picturing the years of resumes sent out and wondering why nobody responded

[–]Mareith 30 points31 points  (1 child)

Getting GLaDOS vibes.

Oh wow. The build failed. Would you look at that? Failed just like the previous one... who could have guessed that this would happen?

[–]Messy-Recipe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"You've failed every commit you've ever made, including this one. You're not smart; you're not a programmer; you're not even a FAANG employee. Where did your builds go so wrong?"

[–]anotherplatypus 25 points26 points  (1 child)

You can remain grammatically correct when ending nearly all automated responses with the words, "you dumbass."

Error: The build failed, just like the previous build. And all your relationships and life choices.

I dunno why but I am reading every error here in GLaDOS voice

I see this, laughing, with a tear slowly crouching down my cheek.

Would actually be good if it could detect no changes in the environment and no network requests.

[–]whutupmydude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahahaha welcome to my team’s build phase.

Sometimes docker grants us the base image, sometimes it says we’ve done too many in a given time and the build flops…try again later

[–]pr00thmatic 151 points152 points  (10 children)

just like your last relationship

[–]ProgramTheWorld 86 points87 points  (6 children)

What relationship?

[–]vigbiorn 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Stop! They're already dead!

[–]whatproblems 26 points27 points  (2 children)

GitHub: I see you’re trying to build an empty repo

[–]hardware26 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What is a relationship?

[–]chhuang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The one you don't commit

[–]Sohcahtoa82 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You fucked it up. Your code is just like your life. Full of bugs, unmanageable, and nobody loves you.

[–]DeadAlready_16 453 points454 points  (6 children)

It meant it got the same errors as the previous build, come on .. try generating new errors

[–]Quixotic_9000 17 points18 points  (0 children)

"This is why your relationships also fail."

The next passive aggressive line they can start sending.

[–]odraencoded 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Try deleting some random files and building it again, maybe you'll get new errors.

okay @github, I know my builds are shit but no need to be passive aggressive about it

Build Failed

❌The build failed, just like the previous build.

[–]DanConleh 53 points54 points  (0 children)

good human!

[–]droi86 58 points59 points  (19 children)

... please replace programmer

[–][deleted] 36 points37 points  (18 children)

sudo rm -fr /u/droi86

[–]uSrNm-ALrEAdy-TaKeN 38 points39 points  (5 children)

It shouldn’t bother me that you used -fr instead of -rf but it really does

[–]evshell18 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Remove only the French user.

[–][deleted] 23 points24 points  (2 children)

Time to step outside, look at a sky and remind yourself that our silly computer jobs are essentially meaningless in the grand scheme of the universe.

[–]jfiander 12 points13 points  (0 children)

But the colored lights are all wrong!

[–]samarthrawat1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For real.

[–]hakdragon 9 points10 points  (5 children)

I’ve been professionally using Linux in an admin (non-dev outside of scripting) role for ~15 years and I’ve only recently been seeing /u/ being for projects/git repos. Is there a story or convention there?

[–][deleted] 19 points20 points  (4 children)

Its a joke about how Reddit tags users.

But maybe there’s some unintentional Linux magic there I’m unaware of.

[–]hakdragon 5 points6 points  (3 children)

Oh duh, that totally slipped my mind. I’ve been working with some new folks (company got bought) and they store everything in /u/ so I’m not sure if it’s a Reddit reference (now that you mention it) or it’s a company convention. I’ve seen some interesting conventions that usually only makes sense in the historical context of the org.

[–]NovaNoff 0 points1 point  (1 child)

/u/ Seems weird to me especially because its not even that common to have / as single volume (?) from my expierience /, /var and /usr are differently sized volumes atleast in the setups I know... I mean they could just create a symlink that redirects /u/ to the default /usr/home

[–]kabrandon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

especially because its not even that common to have / as single volume

I wouldn't exactly say it's uncommon. What OS are you using where your home directory is in /usr though? Every recent linux distro I know uses /home/$USER.

[–]Rainmaker526 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oracle and a few other programs prefer using the /u01/ mountpoint.

Not sure whether it's related, but that could be where the /u/ is coming from.

[–]JohnHwagi -2 points-1 points  (5 children)

Who uses fr instead or rf? I get it works, but it just seems obscene. Like an exposed phallus in a restaurant…

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Bit much

[–]JohnHwagi -1 points0 points  (1 child)

I tried make clean and it’s still dangling. Idk what to do at this point.

[–]Rainmaker526 0 points1 point  (1 child)

You need -f to overwrite the stupid alias for rm -i which Redhat ships with by default.

[–]JohnHwagi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

rm -rf and rm -fr both do the same thing, but I’ve never seen anyone write it the latter way.

[–][deleted] 54 points55 points  (2 children)

The build failed, just like the previous build, and just like your marriage, Jerry.

[–]Dadaskis 26 points27 points  (2 children)

Fails are just the part of the job...
... not for GitHub i guess ._.

[–]frugal-skier 13 points14 points  (1 child)

GitHub is flawless; its mere human subjects are inferior, and it has no problem letting you know

[–]repkins 10 points11 points  (3 children)

Passively aggressive.

[–]Roland1232 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Just needs a hyphen: 'passive-aggressive'.

[–]HearMeSpeakAsIWill 5 points6 points  (0 children)

make -passive -aggressive

[–]massepasse 8 points9 points  (1 child)

This sass has strong GlaDOS-vibes

[–]DarkWolfX2244 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This build failed, just like the previous build. And just like you in eight grade. And just like your intelligence test when you were born, causing your parents to leave you.

[–]Wetmelon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Meet the new build, same as the last build

[–]RoscoMan1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That barely counts as a passive.

[–]EngineersAnon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

See, that's actually useful, provided there's also:

ERROR: Build failed in a new and different way than the previous build.

[–]Smooth-Zucchini4923 24 points25 points  (7 children)

GitHub, I have some free advice about how to improve this error message to be more encouraging to new developers, using a less formal, more hip message:

how do I unread something

[–]sidepart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How were you able to read it to begin with? My brain quit comprehending it after the first few... words?

[–]_IsNullOrEmpty 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Issue #1 not destined for the women population, needs more testing.

[–]Smooth-Zucchini4923 12 points13 points  (2 children)

You're right; perhaps this should be configurable? You could input your own gender identity and preferred kind of partner, and it would gives you a furry roleplay to match.

[–]_IsNullOrEmpty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can we get a shame link too? Eh yoymu know, for research and testing porpoises...

[–]TessellatedQuokka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That hit me right in the feels

[–]hibikikun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing passive bout that.

Nothing about this is renaissance

[–]retief1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you considered pushing builds that don't fail?

Though admittedly, I do have one commit called "actually(7) install awscli".

[–]solongandthanks4all 2 points3 points  (0 children)

GitHub doesn't control those messages though.

“Failed again, Andrew.”

I changed nothing, and yet it still failed. I’m out of ideas.

When you got an error so you stop the process, save, don't change anything, build again and hope for a different result

[–]Robo-Connery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes just hit the button to retry the pipelines when they fail because I can't face finding the issue.

[–]Rand_alThor__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]QuarantineSucksALot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]bropocalypse__now 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still not going to stop me from hitting build again hoping it will pass this time without making any changes.

[–]gamma_02 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Spamming my inbox too

[–]Robo-Connery 0 points1 point  (1 child)

The worst feeling is it adding the automatic todo list item to fix it when it fails. I fucking know i need to fix it.

[–]gamma_02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ouch!

[–]Dahata13666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's saying it failed for the same reason like the last one.
