Hi Neil from raining.fm angry dev ftw!
Angry dev is definitely my favorite. It sounds like some of my late nights.

Have you ever used PHP before?
No, I must be a one trick pony who has only ever used one language, on one platform, in one workplace and has no experience on which to base his claims. What sense would it make to post a comment based on personal experience, right?
Sorry, didn't mean to get your knickers in a twist, I was only being tongue-in-cheek.

#53Does anyone feel like they work more productively when listening to people bash their keyboards or is this more of a novelty thing? Personally, I can understand the rain sounds, this - not so much.
I think the site was made as a joke :-)

#54So I was sitting all alone in my large office at night, browsed Hacker News and as usual opened this in a new tab but did not really look at it becuase I was browsing some other article. Now suddenly I start hearing a slow coding sound coming out of nowhere, I looked around but there was none. The sounds still kept coming , I even went to look under the desks!! Thoughts of an office ghost started trembling in my mind but then I suddenly realised that those pesky sounds were originating from my Mac and I said W!!! Ghost inside my Mac! Holy Sh! With some courage I bothered to look around my tabs and then nailed on this monster. Great work guys! Would be hard to forget about those horrifying 10 mins!

Thank you! But damn, that's expensive. Better find some used one...
Leopold is a great brand, and they were my top pick till they ran out of stock. Instead I bought a DAS with brown switches and haven't looked back. I highly recommend mechanical keyboards, they are very enjoyable to type on.

#56I love this.
My office is really quiet, putting this on alongside some music with my headphones is actually making me more productive!

#57FYI, the link to raining.fm at the bottom of the page doesn't work :)
I came here to say that too.
The "Inspired by raining.fm" link, links back to coding.fm.

cat /dev/random > /dev/dsp Not necessarily the most pleasant sound. [Linux only AFAIK]
For this exercise, /dev/urandom might be better; reading /dev/random will block after the system's entropy pool is exhausted, right?
I'd consider it unlikely most reasonably sane people would actually want to pump random data out their speakers for any significant amount of time.

Ha ha ha! Just glad you figured out it was from your computer and not some coder ghost haunting you!
