I Am Devloper

@mrbrucedwayne @iamdevloper I had one of these last weekend. Was more than a typo, but still.

@mrbrucedwayne the joy of solving a problem, just embrace it :).

@iamdevloper @zacchiro Alternate ending: "oh, I was running the wrong version, never mind"

@larswirzenius @zacchiro @iamdevloper I wasted a whole day disassembling one version, testing another and wondering why things didn't match

@nicolas09F9 @zacchiro @iamdevloper It's a necessary step in the training of any programmer.

@iamdevloper @SnakePecs I am nonironically and not jokingly going to point out that this was the reason why I quit university.

@Dan_and_Nite I had serious thoughts about jumping ship just because I was sick to the gills of learning how to extort people through games.

@SnakePecs I was weeks into writing some code as a prior part of a thesis on some large sized NP problems, but never got consistent results.

@SnakePecs Months of stress, loneliness, being stranded, borderline despair, it never worked the way I expected it to with large instances.

@SnakePecs I just couldn't understand why. Then turns up the last sticks of RAM were corrupting values when they were used.

@SnakePecs But at that point I had just too much and I had already snapped. I couldn't bring myself to get back to it again and continue.

@SnakePecs The snap just made me realise what a ginormous waste of time I was going through either case. So I gave up. For good.
