I just got mine a second ago. Poor guy has just been watching it roll to millions of people unable to stop it

Mine just popped up while I was in class I knew I could count on Reddit for an explanation

Sitting in networking class rn lol. Came here to make sure it wasn't malicious.

Wait until test 2

You don't have to wait for test 2. You could just ignore and then delete if you don't want to receive any of those spam. It's for your own good

I see you missed the "Test Message" from HBO Now a year or two ago. That was awesome because the engineers owned that and didn't throw them under the bus.

Lol I don't think I had HBO Now at that time, I love that though

Found it, 2021. [https://www.cbsnews.com/news/hbo-max-intern-test-email-mistake-subscribers-respond/](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/hbo-max-intern-test-email-mistake-subscribers-respond/) One of those "we've been there too buddy" moments.

That was fun to read through, thanks for linking it!

Same lmao

I'd give anything to see his face when he realized he sent this to everyone in the world lol

His face, and whoever his superior is who is supposed to be responsible for him

Oh man, that was a great watch!

I love that vid Hate onoseconds though

[удалено]

I feel left out I didn’t get one.

hope seank is having a great test1 today

I wish all seank a very pleasant test1

Hopefully his next test will be pushing the BOGO deal

[It's all coming together](https://imgflip.com/i/7g77nf)

I'm worried about what happened to test0 that he felt it necessary to push test1... Somewhere there's a test0 floating around, not knowing where to go. So sad.

Their next interview: “are you THE seank from the starbucks notification?”

For some reason I like to imagine a scenario where they are both facing each other and in a retard strength power move Seank pushes another Starbucks notification without breaking eye contact " Yes, Seank"

lol

Also their next date. Tons of women love Starbucks more than life itself.

Testing in Prod like a real Dev...This guy is going places

Putting his name on it is the best part.

He wants the world to know his name.

Hello, world

[удалено]

For me the pitch went up in the second word like Glados

Here come the test results. "You are a horrible person." That's what it says, "A horrible person". We weren't even testing for that.

Do you ever get that Seanking feeling?

Plot twist: It's actually the name of his office nemesis 🫢

And he used his other office nemesis’s login to send the message. Double frame job.

>!Test1 cle!<

Hmmm.. not just a ploy to get rid of an annoying coworker? *Muhaha, I'll put LochNessJackalope's name on this awful change!*

That was my first thought, too! Am...am I a bad person? 🤫

I'm bad a being a person. So I code

 An award to the one who can tell me his Linkedin page.

Well how was he supposed to know it was prod without testing?

[удалено]

> pushes "hello test1 from seank" to every user in prod > refuses to elaborate > leaves

> seank isn't even his name

Soft skilled his way through a technical interview. Got the interview through 3 VPs recommendations. Got hired by being friends with the CEOs kids.

As someone who soft-skilled my way through an interview for an analyst position, I am so glad I am not also friends with the boss's kids or had any kind of nepotism shit.

A real test needs real data

[Is this meme too old now?](https://i.imgur.com/mMTkYCi.jpg) It's been my favorite for ... over a decade...

"Everyone has a test environment. Some are lucky enough to also have a separate prod environment."

Good memes don't die, they simply age

[удалено]

I mean… If you aren’t testing In prod, are you really testing? Let’s deploy everything straight to prod and have the users be our testers!

Hello test1 to you as well, Sean K.

Hello test1 to you ALL on this blessed day.

Happy test1 season to all who observe

Will there be a commemorative Starbucks cup?

Back in my day we could say Hello World before this test1 woke agenda!

Theyre turning the freaking decimals binary!

[удалено]

❤️❤️ Sending love to ALL my transistors and transbrothers ❤️❤️

Which type of transistors? PNP or NPN?

[удалено]

Speak for yourself

Hello test1 to me ALL on this blessed day.

You dolt

If we don't study the mistakes of testing in prod of the future we're doomed to repeat them for the first time :(

🧐

I believe his name is Seank, pronounced Shaunk

Seank, pull the lever!

*shonk*

[удалено]

That's great not everyone is me because my tests are always "you son of a bitch I'm in " imagine someone Redding it

I once accidentally sent out code with some warns like "die here?1" to see how far it made it before dying. Nobody ever said they saw it but I wonder if anybody had an existential crisis seeing a work website saying die here 5 times.

Hahhah same for me "you son of bitch I'm in " it's just meant if I'm in the block . But the guy will think his device is hacked

SeanK is about to be a very famous dev

They’re going to put him up on the roof with all the other elite level engineers.

That reminds me, I need to go back and finish that show

You do.

Whats the show?

/r/programmerhumor from HBO

There's less masturbation in the HBO version

Do you know how long it’d take to jerk off everyone in this subreddit? I do and I have the math to prove it

This guy masturbates!

[удалено]

No I'm not

10 yr old account - very committed

Are you the guy?

Elon is gonna hire him to run twitter

Hahaha I’m so glad I’m not the only one. Can we make seank a testing in prod meme? Legend

[удалено]

Changing my test account name to Sean K tomorrow morning.

Ours is rich king

Seank, kindly doing the needful, and beyond!

Professional developer testing in prod.

gigachad doesn't need a test stack, he knows the stack.

He IS the stack


Embrace the stack; become the stack.

Good thing they labelled their tests, would have been completely lost if they didn’t call it test1

The first in a 6-part mini-series

test1 test2 test3.1 test3_final test_final test_final2

Thats too real for jokes

I just think it is nice that it worked on their first try.

maybe there was a test0

I'm no programer but when I troubleshoot things I start with test, test1, test2 lol

[удалено]

hyped for test2 already

Imagine if the notification was "Hello World"

starbucks rewrite incoming

What — Musk bought Starbucks?

I'm just happy to see that Sean K made the testing text innocuous. I had a project teammate in college who's test strings were "fuck1", "fuck2", "this is bullshit", etc... Not fun having to tell someone that I didn't want to risk those accidentally getting turned in.

Had an excel model at work that had been passed down from multiple people over the past 5+ years. It was filled with named ranges that were all just curse words, drug references, etc… Anyone high up on the team wasn’t digging into details like that, anyone low enough to see it (like me) just got a good laugh out of it and carried on

I had a conditional import at my old job that would import the Pikachu emoji whenever someone emptied the queue. Hardly ever happened because we had multiple queues and a lot of competing priorities but I'm pretty sure no one's rewritten the workflow yet

Had one in high school who named all his variables things like "Donovan McNabb GOAT and the Eagles FTW" It was not very advanced code as you might expect from high school. My variables were named like "leftside" and "rightside"

That would be so fucking amazing 😂 I wanna rent one of those times square billboarda and just put a "hello world!" python script up there

hello world this is StarbucksGPT

[удалено]

The test only passes if *everybody* receives it.

I didn’t get it, seank couldn’t even fuck up properly

I didn’t and now I’m upset that I was excluded.

Sean k just made Starbucks millions of dollars via viral marketing

It’s good when small independent businesses like Starbucks get a ton of viral marketing like this.

I was so thankful to starbucks when they shut down a store in downtown Portland (ME) because they brazenly decided to unionize. I want my coffee to reflect the darkness and despair of unrepresented labor.

SeanK's resume in the future: - quadrupled Starbucks revenue by developing a sophisticated analytical marketing campaign driven by data and state of the art technology.

[Sean meeting the guys in marketing](https://i.imgur.com/q627Ov3.jpg)

Every year on March 28th, I will buy 1 (one) starbuck in honor of seank test1 day.

Let's all write a comment on the app store to wish SeanK a good Test1

This would be absolutely hilarious 😂

Does anyone know if Starbucks has a blameless postmortem culture? I hope Seank will be ok.

they make you write your name on a giant cup of shame and you have to deal with opening morning Starbucks customers for a week.

I work at sbux and seank is definitely not being blamed. We focused on fixing the issue and preventing it from happening again.

gf getting worried starbucks got hacked. im sitting here giggling realizing it was probably an intern debugging something

You won't be laughing when we discover Starbucks was hacked by the North Korean Navy. (Sea of NK)

Nuke1

Oh god, what happened to the first one

Honestly the possibility that they were hacked is more likely because I got a similar “test2” notification on another app so your girlfriend was probably right

What app?

I got the test2 notification from Underdog fantasy sports

Zupp

What is Zupp?

Not much, you?

Hope he doesn't get into too much trouble

[удалено]

I think it depends on how many people uninstall the app after this. Each uninstall is lost revenue in their eyes. This could be good for them from a viral marketing standpoint but terrible for them based on decreased user account numbers. I guess we'll see how they play it from here.

Either way it makes no sense to fire him. If there's one guy who's not gonna make this mistake again it's probably him lol.

The real problem is he had the ability to send a mass notification by himself. Whoever designed it like that should be in trouble.

I agree. Do we blame the human for making a human error? Or rather we blame the process for even allowing such?

Test1 and it worked, what a pro.

Not a programmer so I got here from googling Starbucks SeanK. Was expecting something phishy not intern developer jokes lol

Hey seank, congrats on landing the Starbucks developer job, and good luck with next week’s applications!

Legend.

ngl i got scared 😭

I bet Starbucks analytics felt a great disturbance in the force, as if thousands of people deleted their cards, their profiles, or the app entirely all at once. Poor Sean K

Same 😂 I almost deleted my Starbucks app

Don’t say that. You’ll get SeanK in trouble.

Apparently SeanK didn't need us to get in trouble so far

I hope he doesn’t think we’re mad at him. He just scared me a lil.

I deleted my cards on it lol

I really thought it was an april fools joke but realized its march still 💀

quick, someone put seank in charge of incoming missile alerts; at least he had the sense to write 'test'

Lmao, got it too

my fiancés name is Sean and he thought it was addressed to him 😂 i was like no babe it’s someone having an unrelated and very bad morning

Should have gas light him into going off grid. Could have finessed a trip to lake Kokomo

He's asserting his dominance over the codebase. *This is my app*

[удалено]

This guys linked in is about to go viral

I also immediately went to LinkedIn and searched for Sean at Starbucks. This has to be one of my favorite LinkedIn "features".

come on no need to dox the poor guy thought it was a meme

I’m weak I just got mine and was like who is SeanK 😭

You don't know the man, the myth, the legend, SeanK?

https://imgur.com/bn1m1Tt

Seank better push out a free drinkie link too after waking me up from my nap 🙄

What kind of notification sound do you have set that wakes you up? That’s powerful lol

Light sleeper I guess. I wake up even with just a vibration notification if I have my phone on my bed.

Remember that earthquake today? That was their phone set to vibrate.

Barista missile threat inbound! Seek immediate foam toppings! This is not a drill!

What’s a good name for that feeling you get when you realize you just did something in production?

Hey sorry guys! My bad

Unless you pay for the blue checkmark how do we know you're the official one, hmm?

You should end all of your posts with “from seank”

I think we're due an AMA from the real seank

Omg it says "official" so it must be the real one!

To his credit: He got it right on the very first test.

"new dev who dis"

Let’s see if Seank went around the world? Pennsylvania checking in! I was seank’d

The fact so many people came to Reddit immediately

Thank you Sean, hello to you too

This is why you never put stupid jokes or profanity in test messages, no matter how funny/tempting it is.

Who gave the intern access to prod!

Let that seank in

Was really hoping he’d add a few bonus stars to my account.

I really didn’t expect to find this on reddit this quickly, but is nice to know it wasn’t some weird hack
