The Reality of Developer’s Life very funny... :)

When you upload something to production environment:

When you find a problem solution without searching in Google:

When you close your IDE without saving the code:

When you try to fix a bug at 3AM:

When your regular expression returns what you expect it:

When my boss reported me that the module I have been working will never be used:

When I show to my boss that I have fixed a bug:

When I upload a code without tests and it works as expected:

When marketing folks show to developers what they have sold:

The first time you apply a CSS to a web page:

When the sysadmin gives you root access:

When you run your script the first time after several hours working on it:

When you go on weekend and everyone else are at office trying to fix all issues:

When your boss finds someone to fix a critical bug:

When you receive an extra paid if project ends before deadline:

When something that had worked on Friday and on Monday did not work:

When you develop without specifications:

When boss tells me that ‘tests are for those who doesn’t know how to code’:

Have you ever life one of these experiences? I hope so, if not maybe you are not a real developer

SSL pinning in Android - A brief discussion

HTTP protocol Communication between the client and a server typically non-encrypted or plain text while we use HTTP protocol.  Pitfall Any middle hacker can interrupt the connection between the client and server and manipulate the data as it involves no encryption. How to overcome this ? As the domain owner one can purchase a digital certificate from CA(Certificate Authority) who are considered as trusted.  A certificate will contain the Owner's name, public key , Issuer's(CA's) name,Issuer's(CA's) signature, domain details, expiry date etc . After the SSL/Leaf certificate is associated with a domain,the communication between client and server will be encrypted. Now the HTTP will become HTTPs. Note : Associating the SSL certificate means it enable the encryption between client and server but does not mean ,the domain owner will never misuse your personal information. How does SSL work ? Pitfall There is a problem here. Let's assume that there is a hacker comes i...

Android - Activity Life cycle
