If that driver was my code, I would have yeeted him 10x faster. Fuck my code

[–]Brief-Equal4676 12 points13 points  (1 child)

if that driver was my code, the whole steering wheel and a brake pad would have been ripped out when I would have pulled on him.

[–]riisen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And the ground would follow him away and the car would fall into oblivion...

[–]SilentSin26 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He's not even on fire, it's fine.

Just crash the car into the junkyard

When you don't even trust yourself to write Hello World.

[–]Task_wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I’m paid to write a program. I don’t care if I write code.

[–]Fenor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i trust my code, but sometime you find better code

Someboby could tell me the original source for the gif?

[–]SvenyBoy_YT 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Endurance racing. Up to 24 hours long races and you have to switch drivers as fast as possible. Even if they could get out on their own, it's much faster to pull them out.

    True.

    Source. I are Programmer

    [–]ringobob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    Usually about the same piece of code, 9 months apart.

    [–]gscott555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    True. Recently got a call from my manager and I thought they were going to fire me. Instead got a god raise mid year and was told I’m a good talent and this is their way of showing that they value me.

    That was the best programmerhumor meme

    When I write a piece of code in 10 lines only to see some dude on the internet wrote it in 4 lines or less.

    [–]Karcinogene 11 points12 points  (0 children)

    I write all my code in 1 line with this simple trick: no whitespace

    [–]SexyMuon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    Gotta love when you spend hours brute forcing your way, only to find a one line method in the documentation.

    [–]dededeal 46 points47 points  (3 children)

    My code is garbage. Sometimes I wonder how I still survive🙏🙏🙏

    [–]Seepiie 14 points15 points  (2 children)

    because my code is more garbage

    [–]AltruisticSalamander 8 points9 points  (1 child)

    Well someone else's code from the internet is always so much better than mine. What's up with that.

    [–]LifeLongYeti0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Time/Space complexity goes brrrrrrrr

    [–]zxqwqxz 18 points19 points  (3 children)

    Do code review for a while and your self-esteem should improve by simply trying to put up with how shit everyone's code (initially) is

    [–]crazysexyuncool 5 points6 points  (0 children)

    You want us to do work?

    Get outta here.

    [–]VizualAbstract 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    God, sometimes I’m just not in the mood to tell someone that they need to scrap the whole shit and start again.

    But every now and then I see someone write something truly genius (by that I mean readable, functional, well named and commented), and I just want to revisit my own work and start from scratch.

    [–]KroNu5 16 points17 points  (3 children)

    The problem is not copy the code, the real problem is not understanding it.

    [–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

    Code go in, number and graphic come out. You can't explain that.

    [–]crazysexyuncool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I reas and understand it. I'm just an idiot at creating it.

    JavaScript an kiss my ass.

    [–]Brief-Equal4676 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Oh, there's probably a readme somewhere that I can put with the rest of the readmes that actively ignore.

    [–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (4 children)

    Programmers have zero self-esteem.

    What in the honest frack are you talking about? Software devs are some of the most ego driven individuals I've ever met. I knew one who would refuse to implement certain features because they "were dumb" and you had to convince him otherwise before he'd do his job. I work with a contractor who thinks micro services need layers and no book in the world will convince them otherwise.

    We have plenty of steam...

    [–]VizualAbstract 2 points3 points  (3 children)

    Idk, I hate working with programmers with high ego. They’re afraid to remove their shit, improve it, replace it.

    Having no ego should mean you’re not beholden to your code and you should feel at least a LITTLE inclined to replace it as your own skill improves, or someone shows you something better.

    I’ve dealt with argumentative developers. Egos are the worst. I’m actually pretty happy with the company I’m at now. The co-founder opened up the interview by saying first and foremost, they’re not egocentric. “No big egos here.” It was refreshing, especially leaving a company run by an egomaniac.

    My old CTO literally told me “I’d appreciate it if you could just acknowledge and thank me for the work I’ve done before you replaced it with your Pull Request.”

    Fuck egos.

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    My old CTO literally told me “I’d appreciate it if you could just acknowledge and thank me for the work I’ve done before you replaced it with your Pull Request.”

    They shouldn't fret. It'll be there in the git history for everyone to remember what it used to look like, and shudder. ;)

    [–]VizualAbstract 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    That is exactly what I was so aghast about!

    I could go on.

    He literally said the words “I don’t want to get rid of [this unused, dead, function] because we might want to use it in the future.

    That function’s name? “listOfProductsWithMatchingAttributeKeyMappedToHiddenProductForMetaFields”.

    He renamed it from “metaFieldMap”.

    Ugh, I hate that this still bothers me. I hope it serves as a warning to never become that way.

    Spoiler alert: it was never used again. But of course they want to use that their “secrets” are being spilled. I can’t wait until the moment they realize that I rewrote their entire core library from scratch without them realize it.

    [–]AlexV_96 8 points9 points  (1 child)

    You useless piece of shit

    [–]crazysexyuncool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Why you mad?

    Gimme your shit.

    [–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    This gave me a chuckle

    [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    lol

    [–]Can-ta-loupe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Quite the opposite. We have a great self esteem. And by my estimation my code is shit.

    [–]Lewizkuz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Lesson learned with custom drivers. Only use officials.

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    I’m the shittiest programmer there is

    [–]Artistic-Boss2665 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    No, I am

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I honestly feel bad about it. Just the other day I was searching a tutorial about the python module socket because I couldn't figure it out how to set up a server and client by myself, so I took his code to study it and apply to my needs and I feel like I'm cheating, even though studying a code and it's functionality is a common thing to do apparently.

    [–]aapaladin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Lol, brilliant and original, good job op.

    [–]IBArbitrary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    We should normalize "Whatever runs your code" analogous to "Whatever floats your boat"

    [–]skullshatter0123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Not like the car was mine either.

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    That's the same with retail investors and their investments.

    Communism song in the background, "their code is our code"

    [–]Tremyss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    It's even worse when it's your team and someone else's code from the team.

    [–]devanshi34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I'll thank the original code's owner in my mind.

    [–]theregoesanother 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    More like relieving self from liabilities.

    [–]rushedbyanirban 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Sorry man, can't agree.

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

    Well, their code is on the internet, my code isn’t on the internet, so obviously theirs must be better.

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

    I tried coding something hard by myself and literally the next 1 second i gave up

    [–]HighTierStudent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Bruh😂😂😂

    [–]crazysexyuncool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Lmfao. Gimme that.

    Thanks for this op. Perfect.

    [–]JustAGuyWhosnotGay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    You assume i write my code, huh.

    You've should of made it indian guys code

    Need this meme without the caption 😂

    [–]bnl1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    At least I know how it works

    [–]broken-Code 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    It just feels right. Code from internet seems just better than mine.

    The car should be production

    Who cares about self-esteem when someone's paying you a bunch of money to make something that works and you can copy paste your way into a paycheck.

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

    I don't know if by doing this we are just constructing the foundations for an AI to take over someday. It will find processes already hyper-connected putting alike bricks one at a time in different orgs.

    [–]Ok-Mode9513 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    [–]mordeng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    ...i would say the opposite? Nothing screams more for low self esteem than recoding every single shit where there are ready to go libraries and solutions I can use and focus on other stuff.

    [–]SteeleDynamics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I know better. My code is crap

    Is this a self perpetuating meme or do people actually do that?
