Absolutely normal when using virtual/cloud servers

Those IPs have been going through many providers and users already

When trying to use this IP and building a positive rep then you will have let your IP unblock by any service it has been blocked from

Or use a smtp relay service by google or Amazon etc

Which I wouldn't do but just to say

[rustic nova]

Love how my contabo IP is blacklisted on one literally 2002 lookin-ass website that requires you to pay to whitelist

Literally no other flags

There's 3 levels on these checks though: level 1 being the email provider, level 2 the IP, level 3 the whole Provider (ASP or smth)

So if your IP is blacklisted on 3, most providers do ignore it, you can easily get your IP whitelisted on Level 1s and 2s for free if you're able to prove its not malicious

Though they can check when the IP was last used to abuse so thats probably not going to be needed, some blacklists also expire until a new report comes in

[boreal iron]

The issue are usually not the public whitelisting services but the private ones the toolbox doesn't show and list

And there's also a lot of them used by different companies

Being blocked on many public listing services already is a good hint to change the IP in the first place

[rustic nova]

Change my mind: blacklist providers providing publicly accessible blacklists should allow whitelisting for free

Aka if you're blacklisted, unblacklist with a proper reason given

[boreal iron]

That's mostly the case and usually an automatic process where you just have to fill out a form

[rustic nova]

Good

Spamhaus is nice

[sharp geyser]

Well I can now send and receive emails without it being spam so that’s cool

[neon leaf]

finally finished the worst draw program on the internet

Daily reminder to set dmarc and dkim

[sharp geyser]

Already did

[rustic nova]

good

[frosty field]

hello! sorry if this is the wrong place friends, but i see that a lot of bots get declined for verification with the reason being "The long description on your bot's page is filled out with spam/junk to reach the 200 character minimum requirement. Please rewrite your description to include more useful information about your bot." does someone have an example of what's considered spam or junk? i.e. does it mean it has to be just a list of features or is like descriptive sentences considered as filler/spam/junk? thanks!

[dense flame]

examples are spamming random alphanumeric ("difjakhdfiuehhad") or no useful info

[frosty field]

ok, thank you so much. i was worried about this and this makes a lot of sense to me.

[dense flame]

i've also encountered bots that has a lyrics of a song on their description. That would also fall under junk

[dense flame]

yea no problemo

[frosty field]

that is wild, lol sorry you have to go through that

[dense flame]

[frosty field]

haha

can I ask on average, how many bots get requested for verification each day?

[dense flame]

I dont have the exact numbers but my estimate is 50-100 bots

around that range

[frosty field]

oh i understand. just trying to get a understanding of the process. just one more question if you don't mind!

[dense flame]

yea sure go ahead

[frosty field]

i can imagine that the reviewers have a lot of requests and can spend only so much time for each bot. if the bot is very big, is the review split between multiple reviewers?

[dense flame]

ah no, but a reviewer can ask for help from other reviewers if they need so

[frosty field]

that makes a lot of sense to me. thank you for answering my questions, you've been super nice! thank you for all the amazing work you're doing!

[dense flame]

No problem at all! :>

[spark flint]

Not able to update a button on click

djs v13.10.0

[rustic nova]

.component is read only

setDisabled is not a thing

theres disabled, but thats read only too

[deft wolf]

You need to define a new button and edit the message

[rustic nova]

actually nvm, setDisabled exists, but yeha you cant edit it, you need to re-define it

[deft wolf]

At least that's what I would do

[spark flint]

i have done the exact same thing on another bot which worked

on another bot

[rustic nova]

same versions?

[spark flint]

yeah

[rustic nova]

is that a buttonInteraction too?

[spark flint]

yeah

[rustic nova]

shrug

thats at least what the docs are telling me on 13.10.x

[spark flint]

[rustic nova]

why does this shit have so many versions istg

[spark flint]

literally

[eternal osprey]

Hey, in java we must name the methods Word1Word2 right instead of word1Word2?

[rustic nova]

No numbers in class names

OnlyPascalCase

MainController
PluginManager

[eternal osprey]

Ah i see, thanks aurel

 public void addStudent (Student name, int place) {

        all[place] = name;
    }
```my teacher made everything like this

shouldn't it become AddStudent tho?

[lyric mountain]

the other way around

all methods are camelCase

all classes PascalCase

[eternal osprey]

owhhh

[lyric mountain]

all constants SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE

[eternal osprey]

And variables?

[lyric mountain]

camel

[eternal osprey]

i know they are mixed conventions but not sure what that is

[eternal osprey]

ah i see

thanks

So imagine for a method i got 3 words: askinloop, it would become askInLoop?

[lyric mountain]

no, you'd rename that thing

processLoop or smth

depends on what it does

depending on what it does you don't even need to create a method

[eternal osprey]

I am trying to keep my main as empty as possible

according to my teachers that's a good practice in java

so i divided all the coded into classes

[lyric mountain]

not in the way u think

[eternal osprey]

and added some general methods outside the actual public void main

[lyric mountain]

yes, you're supposed to make self-contained classes, but u don't need to make a method for every single action

[eternal osprey]

Owh

[lyric mountain]

for example

[eternal osprey]

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        welcome();
    }

    public static void createUser(String[] array, Group group, int place) {

       int studentNumber = Integer.parseInt(array[0]);
       String studentFirstName = array[1];
       String studentLastName = array[2];
       Student newStudent = new Student(studentFirstName, studentLastName, studentNumber);
       group.addStudent(newStudent, place);

    }
    public static void processLoop(input Getter, Group group, int size) {
        Boolean errorFound = false;
        while (!errorFound) {
            errorFound = Getter.finishChanges(group, size);
        }
    }
    public static void welcome() {
        input Getter = new input();
        int size = Getter.getGroupSize();
        Group group = new Group(size);
        for(int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
            String array[] = Getter.studentCreationInput();
            createUser(array, group, i);
        }
        Getter.createOutput(group);
        processLoop(Getter, group, size);
}
}
``` this is what i've done right now

I found it pretty clean

[lyric mountain]

see, ur using that method in a single place

also, u still need to learn proper formatting

and dont use capital primitives except for generics

[eternal osprey]

wdym with capital primitives

[lyric mountain]

Boolean

use boolean

they're different things

the former is a boxed primitive, the latter is the actual primitive

[eternal osprey]

Yeah indeed, i asked the teacher and she said that eventually we would want to code so, that the main would be empty, and only methods/class methods are being called.

[eternal osprey]

Owhh damn, thank you for pointing it out

[lyric mountain]

no, that's almost as bad as having very big methods

you only make methods for 2 scenarios:
A - it's a class-specific action (getters, setters, renderers, etc etc)
B - it's a commonly repeated code block

else you get a lot of small functions, forcing the viewer to jump around to see what each is doing

[eternal osprey]

Owh that's strange

[lyric mountain]

for example ```java
while (!finishedStuff()) {
doThis();
theOtherThing();
thenDoThis();
ohAndDontForgetThis();
finishWithThis();
}

it's small? yes it is, but you have virtually no reference code in that block

to see what it's doing you'd have to ctrl + click each line and see what each step is doing

when your teach said that about the main() block they meant that you should keep only initialization stuff inside it

[sudden geyser]

having a small main method is good imo

[lyric mountain]

this is my Main for example ```java
public class Main {
private static final OperatingSystemMXBean info = (OperatingSystemMXBean) ManagementFactory.getOperatingSystemMXBean();
protected static final StopWatch boot = new StopWatch();

private static final CacheManager cacheManager = new CacheManager();
private static final CommandManager commandManager = new CommandManager();
private static final ScheduleManager scheduleManager;

static {
    ScheduleManager sm;
    try {
        sm = new ScheduleManager();
    } catch (NoSuchMethodException | InvocationTargetException | InstantiationException | IllegalAccessException e) {
        Constants.LOGGER.error("Failed to start scheduler: " + e, e);
        sm = null;
    }
    scheduleManager = sm;
}

private static Application app;

public static void main(String[] args) {
    boot.start();

    ImageIO.setUseCache(false);
    Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler(app = new Application());
}

public static CacheManager getCacheManager() {
    return cacheManager;
}

public static CommandManager getCommandManager() {
    return commandManager;
}

@Nonnull
public static Application getApp() {
    return app;
}

}

[sudden geyser]

main is really only responsible for initialization, not figuring out how your program runs

[lyric mountain]

yes, that's what I meant

[eternal osprey]

owh yeah you are right

they told me to keep the public static void main as reduced as possible

but the main class itself can indeed contain other methods etc

[spark flint]

I am probably doing something wrong but here i am

bot is not getting dm messages, logging message.content

intents: [Intents.FLAGS.GUILDS, Intents.FLAGS.GUILD_MESSAGES, Intents.FLAGS.DIRECT_MESSAGES, Intents.FLAGS.MESSAGE_CONTENT]

version: v13.12.0

[lyric mountain]

yes, but that's not the actual point

main() is what initializes your application, like, anything it needs to do before starting the actual app

it shouldn't contain any business logic or database transactions

just the essential for a successful start

[rustic nova]

istg 13.12 hates you

[spark flint]

yees

a lot

[lyric mountain]

the Main class (can be called anything) usually hold values or methods that will be accessed from the rest of the code, and that are related to the runtime

[eternal osprey]

ah i see', yeah i already figured that the main class is used to make sure that those values can be used for all the other classes and methods (by providing them as a parameter for example)

[lyric mountain]

for example, there I have
OperatingSystemMXBean = returns info about the system
StopWatch = to time how much it took to start
CacheManager = my cache manager (stores frequently used values)
CommandManager = loads the classes related to commands
ScheduleManager = loads periodic CRON tasks
Application = the bot

the managers are self-contained loaders, they need to be online before starting the bot so that's why they're there

[spark flint]

ok i did more logging

it is logging not all messages in guilds

and it is just not logging dms at all

[rustic nova]

solution: wait for a bug fix on v50

[lyric mountain]

did u include partials?

[hushed robin]

upgrade to v14

[spark flint]

yes

[spark flint]

cba

[lyric mountain]

if u listen to raw events does it appear in the log?

[spark flint]

how do i listen to raw events

i am stupid

[lyric mountain]

^

there are probably more messages from tim

whenever something isn't firing, he always say to listen to raw events

[spark flint]

ok

yeah it worked

[lyric mountain]

well, then it is indeed firing

somethind down the pipe is preventing it from reaching the event listener

[spark flint]

yeah

[lyric mountain]

ask tim if he pops in this channel, he's got more knowledge about djs event piping than I do

[spark flint]

alrighty ty

[quartz kindle]

wazzap

[crystal wigeon]

hey anyone used python flask with lambda?

im not able to deploy using zappa, i keep running into "lib" not found error for some reason but the app runs as expected locally.

    "dev": {
        "app_function": "lib.server.app",
        "profile_name": "default",
        "project_name": "backend",
        "runtime": "python3.9",
        "s3_bucket": "zappa-app",
        "aws_region": "us-west-2",
        "slim_handler": true,
        "cors": true,
    }
}```

this my zappa config

when i run deploy, and use zappa tail it just shows this error. and says deploy failed

i tried creating a boilerplate app with same settings and that worked

[lyric mountain]

python flask or idk, I use java

jokes aside, u need to install lib

whatever that is

did u try pip i lib?

[eternal osprey]

hey, is it possible to create a graphical-interface with java?

I am trying to create a calendar, and ofcourse in native java it's easy but i am trying to take a step ahead and create an actual graphical representation of the calendar

i've heard that java swing is a good package for handling such gui creations

[sudden geyser]

don't bother

it's not great

guis in java are notoriously awful

[warm surge]

Hm?>

[wheat mesa]

You can create GUIs in Java @eternal osprey but it is pretty annoying to make it look good

Swing is the built in standard but there are other GUI libs out there

[rustic nova]

fuck swing

was tasked to use it in work

fuck it

like

actually fuck it

[eternal osprey]

I see, it doesn't have to be really pretty

just like the apple calendar planner app

it needs to be functional and that's it actually

I wanted to use java as that's my current programming language goal to learn, and i really like the language so far

[lyric mountain]

java is...not the best language for UI

like, you could definitely create gorgeous apps (jetbrains IDEs are made purely in swing afterall)

but it's a hard task

[eternal osprey]

Ah i see

I will try, thanks for all the suggestions tho guys!

[opaque seal]

if you like java you'll love kotlin

[wheat mesa]

Kotlin is like the syntactically sugary version of Java, with some nice features and QOL stuff. Java itself is still a really great language to start off OOP with though, definitely stick with it

[lyric mountain]

I love java yet hate kotlin

[wheat mesa]

I haven’t tried Kotlin but almost everyone I know that uses it likes it pretty much universally

Depends on your style really

Java is set in stone and really easy to read, I love Java primarily because there’s not so many fancy tricks and 10 billion and 1 ways to do things

It’s the simplicity that makes it elegant

[sudden geyser]

think you're being too harsh on kotlin

a lot of kotlin is syntactic sugar, but there are many features kotlin provides which java doesn't or makes very difficult

higher order functions being the most basic example, as java's function interface thing is just yucky

[eternal osprey]

Yeah oop introduced me to java and i love it so far. I like it more then c++ as java is indeed simple and easy to use (well once you get the hang of all scopes and intents)

[wheat mesa]

to be fair java's indentation does not affect the langauge, and scope is the same as it is in C++

[eternal osprey]

yeah but the static, public, methods etc hit me like a truck tho

but i kinda got the hang of it already

Does anyone know how i can make this button smaller?

ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon(new ImageIcon("C:\\Users\\\Desktop\\foto-3.png").getImage().getScaledInstance(400, 400, Image.SCALE_DEFAULT));
    private JLabel label = new JLabel(image);
    private JFrame frame = new JFrame();


 label.setBounds(10, 10, 400, 400);
        label.setVisible(true);
        label.setLayout(new FlowLayout());

[lyric mountain]

it's quite a low bar to say "I love X more than c++" lmao

[lyric mountain]

just a small headsup, but u can set methods in component instantiation

private JLabel label = new JLabel(image) {{
  setBounds(10, 10, 400, 400);
  setLayout(new FlowLayout());
  setVisible(true);
}};

also, always call setVisible as last

to make it smaller simply use setSize

[wheat mesa]

Swing has a lot of stuff with layouts that I don't understand

It's quite annoying

[lyric mountain]

it didn't age well indeed

[wheat mesa]

Programmatically generating UIs just does not work as well as they had hoped

Markup langs hit this one on the nose pretty much perfectly

[lyric mountain]

I mean, it'd be a great framework, the issue is that they overcomplicated things

like making grids (and filling with data)

[wheat mesa]

If it were easier to position components then it would be so much better

But to get a layout you want you have to know what all the stupid layouts do and how to use them

It's very complex and honestly I just stay far away

[lyric mountain]

I really wish someone made a better UI framework for java

javafx just doesn't cut it

[wheat mesa]

Something like tauri for java would be excellent

Or a more modern WPF equivalent

[sudden geyser]

no it works very well

swing itself is just not great

like, if you use react jsx, you're already doing a weak version of that

[lyric mountain]

My issue with swing is that it's overly verbose

[wheat mesa]

It requires SO MUCH BOILERPLATE

It's terrible

[lyric mountain]

That too

Like, I'm all in for java-level of verbosity, it's fine

But swing goes too overboard

[sudden geyser]

imperative uis are awful to work with

[wheat mesa]

The pipeline is complex too, doesn't offer much wiggle room for customizability

[lyric mountain]

Most of the time I end up making my own extensions to make it more practical

[wheat mesa]

I'm rewriting my engine to use opengl + imgui instead of swing, I have no idea why I even tried to use swing for it

(It's sketchy if I'm actually going to be able to write this engine by the time I need it though, I'm not very good at this whole advanced data structures for game engines thing)

[lyric mountain]

You could try making an opengl wrapper that extends graphics2d

You'd instantly become one of the most popular lib devs

[quaint rampart]

yo guys what is the equivalent to this but using import? im trying to make a reload all commands on my bot

delete require.cache[require.resolve('./my_module')]

before my rewrite i would use this to unload all my commands and then require it again but im not able to figure it out in any documentation, is it even possible?

[wheat mesa]

Unfortunately this is not possible with ESM

It's my #1 complaint about import, everything else is great

[lament rock]

this is actually kind of false

[wheat mesa]

it's possible if you want to rewrite the file with fs and then reimport it

[lament rock]

https://www.npmjs.com/package/heatsync

https://github.com/AmandaDiscord/Heatsync

full disclaimer, I am the author

[wheat mesa]

You actually got it to work?

I thought you gave up on it months ago

[lament rock]

No lol

I got it working fine

I said no lol to giving up

most of my issues at the time was my backtracker module

Native like imports are important to me

[wheat mesa]

also on the off chance anybody here knows how to get the java compiler to shut the fuck up, how do I tell it that this is safe: ```java
Class<?> c = f.getType();
System.out.println(c.getTypeName());
if(IComponent.class.isAssignableFrom(c)) {
System.out.println("Yes");
Object instance = c.getDeclaredConstructor().newInstance();
f.set(gameObj, instance);

                addComponent(objID, instance);
            }

```since addComponent's 2nd param takes a <T extends IComponent> but it won't accept Object

But I know that the class is compatible because of the if statement

[lament rock]

cant you cast it to a type

[wheat mesa]

Problem is that I don't know the type at compile time

I'm using reflection

Otherwise I would cast it

[lament rock]

Cast it to IComponent?

[wheat mesa]

Doesn't work because that's casting upwards and losing information

This checks if the type implements IComponent

and if it does, instantiate it and add it to the entity's components

[lament rock]

is there something similar in java like in js:
if (item instanceof SomeClass) item.someClassSpecificMethod();

[wheat mesa]

unfortunately no

instanceof is the closest you can get but the compiler doesn't extract any info from it

[lament rock]

Intellisense's JS type system is smarter than Java's wtf

[wheat mesa]

yeah it's really bugging me

it's the one thing I need to complete this and test it

but the compiler is being stupid

[lament rock]

Object does extend IComponent though?

[wheat mesa]

No

IComponent extends Object technically

[lament rock]

Flawed system imo

[wheat mesa]

Java compiler or my system

[lament rock]

Quick google searches says there is no way to ignore other than to fix

system

[wheat mesa]

I don't technically HAVE to have it like this, but it certainly is convenient for the user

[lament rock]

even if the class doesn't add any new members from its base class, its base class isn't compatible with its type

or has the possibility of not being

[wheat mesa]

I suppose I could have the precondition of the user having to instantiate the components themselves

Let me try that and see how it goes

Actually no that still presents the same issue

Because I don't know how to get the actual type of the components at runtime even if they're already instantiated

My only other idea is to have a list of components in the gameobject that the user has to add to

Which is kind of lame

[wheat mesa]

I got it to work

Turns out I'm a dummy

I forgot to register the component in the ECS

I blame gradle, it was hiding the error from me

[stiff dust]

Linux VPS (Just SSH)
Linux VPS (with GUI)
Windows VPS

Which one would you rather?

[neon leaf]

just ssh

[earnest phoenix]

First one

[stiff dust]

well working with SSH isn't hard?

I change my VPS os from Windows to Linux

but its really confusing and weird

I'm not sure about what I've done and I'm feeling I have to change it to Windows again

[earnest phoenix]

SSH is literally just connecting you to the remote machine (your VPS in this case), and you just work with the terminal

[stiff dust]

yup and I don't have direct access to files & folders and its little weird and new for me

[earnest phoenix]

Using any type of GUI for a server is a terrible idea, and you shouldn't use a Windows VPS unless it's purely for building/compiling programs for Windows

[neon leaf]

you have, but with the terminal

or sftp

[stiff dust]

hmmm

OK, so I'm trying to get used to it

[eternal osprey]

 JLabel label = new JLabel(image);
        JFrame frame = new JFrame();
        JPanel panel = new JPanel();
        JProgressBar name = new JProgressBar(0, 100);
        name.setBounds(40,40,160,30);
        name.setValue(0);
        name.setStringPainted(true);
        name.setVisible(true);
        panel.setLayout(new GridLayout(0, 1));
        panel.add(label);
        label.add(name);
        label.setLayout( null );
        label.setBounds(10, 10, 50, 50);
        label.setVisible(true);
        frame.add(panel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        frame.setTitle("Zorgzaam - Planning & Administratie");
        frame.pack();
        frame.setVisible(true);```does anyone know why my progressbar is not showing up?

Only thing it's showing is just a blank white page

it's only showing up once it's done lmao

[stiff dust]

is there any way to connect to the Linux SSH from phone?

[sick agate]

yup

you can use termux if you need it

it's little overkill but eh

[stiff dust]

I just want to do pm2 restart or something like that if onetime my bot turned off and I didn't have access to my PC

[sick agate]

it works i guess

[deft wolf]

Termius on android is kinda good

[sick agate]

yeah

you can use connectbot

i don't know about it tho

i just saw i

[lyric mountain]

I recommend juicessh

[lyric mountain]

Becausw you're calling setVisible last

Which you should anyway

What is it supposed to do?

[bright thorn]

can we set dynamic time in the button

[spark flint]

How can I make the chakra colour mode change be a transition?

[lyric mountain]

You mean the unix markdown?

Try it, but I think you can't

The same way u can't ping people in buttons

[bright thorn]

umm

we can by moment

as string

[lyric mountain]

What?

[quartz kindle]

ig you mean by spamming the api and updating the button every second lol

[lyric mountain]

Limão

[spark flint]

lol

[stiff dust]

is there any way to login into my VPS (Linux SSH) without enter IP/username/password each time?

[rustic nova]

A bookmark and ssh key 4head

[sudden geyser]

and an ssh agent likely

so you don't need to enter your password always

[eternal osprey]

Hey guys i recently started a course processors. We recently got introduced to the concept of a multi-level machine. I tink that i got it, but i am not sure whether it's 100% correct, so could anyone correct me?

-Level 5 = high-level language (js, java, c++, c#) -> easy for humans, hard for machine
compiler translates to assembly language:
-level 4 = assembly (2nd lowest language), understandable for humans, already a bit lighter for the machine
assembler translates to machine code
-level 3 = Operating system architecture level:
OS already interprets and executes some data when it's complete, else if it still needs to be modified it will go on to level 2:
-level 2 = Instruction set architecture level:
sets the paths between the registers and the alu
-level 1 = so registers get the data from the OS level, then send it over to the ALU, which performs some logical functions and eventually the data goes from the alu back to the registers for storage using a bus, using the paths sets in level 2
-level 0 = handle I/O

[quartz kindle]

5 seconds of google

[eternal osprey]

yeah i got that same picture in my lecture but i didn't understand it

[quartz kindle]

which part are you having trouble understanding?

[eternal osprey]

especially the different between the digital logic level and the Microarchitecuter

microarch level

[quartz kindle]

digital logic is nand gates

transistors that alter the flow of electric signals

microarchitecture is cpu level, what happens inside a cpu

as well as other microchips

[eternal osprey]

Ooowh so that's just basically handling the actual output?

[eternal osprey]

yeah i understand the cpu pretty well, just the difference between these 2 layers were a bit thin to me

So the last level is basically just handling the electric signals, the data gates and eventually just the I/O overall?

[quartz kindle]

basically yeah, like logic gates and transistors without any specific bigger picture going on

[eternal osprey]

I love you

[quartz kindle]

microarchitecture would be taking the hardware and designing some bigger picture, some actual operations like math and i/o

[eternal osprey]

ahhh i see

thank you so much!

I see, it's basically just going from:
surface -> internal -> output

[lyric mountain]

no way u put c++ and java in the same level lmao

jokes aside, yeah, that's pretty right

[eternal osprey]

c++ is the daddy of java

[eternal osprey]

Alright thank you!

[open spire]

C is the daddy of most languages

Okay, I don't seem to be understanding how to create a discord attachment using canvas and discord js v14.50. I've copy pasta'd working code I had once made before, and changed up all necessary things that discord changed since 13 -> 14 and I simply can't figure out how / why it's not displaying the image even tho testing it outside of an embed, does indeed create the image correctly.

//an array w/ 10 of these
tenCards.push({
  name: animeFromDB[i].name,
  url: animeFromDB[i].url,
  anime: animeFromDB[i].anime_name,
  anime_url: animeFromDB[i].anime_url,
  img_url: animeFromDB[i].img_url,
  rarity: rarity
})

//create the images, and store it in the array above
let results = await client.createCards(tenCards)

  client.createCards = async (cardArray) => {

    //deleted irrelavent code for discords character limit
    
    for(i=0;i<cardArray.length;i++) {
      
      //deleted more code not needed to see
    
      const canvas = createCanvas(245, 370)

      const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d')
    
      const image = await loadImage(cardArray[i].img_url)
    
      ctx.drawImage(image, 0, 0, image.naturalWidth, image.naturalHeight, 19, 30, 210, 325)
    
      const fullCard = await loadImage(border)
      
      ctx.drawImage(fullCard, 0, 0)
  
      cardArray[i].finalCard = new AttachmentBuilder(canvas.toBuffer(), {name: `image.png`}) //create the image, store it into the array and return it.
    }
    return cardArray
  }

        //build my embeds for pagination
        for(i=0;i<results.length;i++) {
            let newEmbed = client.quickEmbed(`${results[i].name}`,`Rarity: ${results[i].rarity}\nAnime: [${results[i].anime}](${results[i].anime_url})`)
            newEmbed.setImage(`attachment://image.png`)
            if(results.length <= 1) {
                newEmbed.setFooter({text: `${interaction.user.tag}`, icon_url: interaction.user.avatarURL()})
            } else {
                newEmbed.setFooter({text: `${interaction.user.tag} - Page: ${i+1} / ${results.length}`, icon_url: interaction.user.avatarURL()})
            }
            pages.push(newEmbed)
          }


    //during the pagination code, I do send the file. 
    //[page].finalCard = current page (for index) and .finalCard is the buffered canvas image
    await interaction.editReply({embeds: [pages[page]], components: [row], files: [pages[page].finalCard], ephemeral: true})

[open spire]

You should use Embed Builder

[craggy pine]

Eh, no I shouldn't in this case but ty for the suggestion

• I do actually.

client.quickEmbed is the embed builder but my own function

[open spire]

Ohh

[craggy pine]

AttachmentBuilder {
  attachment: <Buffer 89 50 4e 47 0d 0a 1a 0a 00 00 00 0d 49 48 44 52 00 00 00 f5 00 00 01 72 08 06 00 00 00 2d 73 9c b1 00 00 00 06 62 4b 47 44 00 ff 00 ff 00 ff a0 bd a7 ... 127857 more bytes>,  name: 'image.png',
  description: undefined
}
EmbedBuilder {
  data: {
    color: 15277667,
    title: 'Yuki',
    description: 'Rarity: Common\n' +
      'Anime: [One Piece](https://myanimelist.net/anime/21/One_Piece)',
    image: { url: 'attachment://image.png' },
    footer: { text: 'Miyuka#0425 - Page: 1 / 10', icon_url: undefined }
  }
}

Another note is that console logging results[0].finalCard and my first embed both show image data, just not displaying it within the message itself.

[earnest phoenix]

I don't really see why that could be happening but it might be that you're naming all of the attachments with the exact same name, so it might be conflicting or something

[craggy pine]

I could name them using i in the loop then

see if that works.

[earnest phoenix]

Also for the <EmbedBuilder>.setFooter() method, it's supposed to be iconURL, not icon_url

[craggy pine]

yeah forgot about dat

[craggy pine]

I do have a question. How is it able to see 'attachment://image.png' does discord just like cache all of them so doing that just picks the one named that

[earnest phoenix]

Discord gives embeds access to the files that are currently uploaded to the message/response, that's how it's able to see it

Also apparently when editing, the option is called attachments, not files
https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/14.7.1/typedef/WebhookEditMessageOptions

This is some weird inconsistency, and I don't see an actual difference between those options

[craggy pine]

I figured it out. Everything was correct. I was editing code for a different menu unknowingly and did a major

anyhoo, ty for helping 😛

Note: attachments didn't work, files did

[earnest phoenix]

Very nice

[eternal osprey]

Hey guys, the xor is like: either a or b, but not both right? But if we negate this xor, wouldnt we have to use the the demorgan law? So it would become: both a and b but not only one (so either a or b)?

[rustic nova]

exclusive or

true + true = false
true + false = true
false + false = false iirc
false + true = true

Also i hate demorgan law

[eternal osprey]

Yeha i know

but now we negate the xor

so it would become exactly the opposite

[rustic nova]

!

!xor

[eternal osprey]

yeye

[rustic nova]

There's probably a more scientific symbol for it

Dunno what you mean otherwise

[eternal osprey]

yeah ~

~xor

i thought about using the demorgan law: so ~(a xor b) = ~(A and B) but not ~A or ~B

[rustic nova]

Yeahhh that was the only topic i stopped paying attention in after 5 minutes lmaoo

[eternal osprey]

ahh no problem

I think that i did it worng

the correct answer would be negation xor = (a and b) or not a and not b

makes sense because xor means, either one of both true.

I'm creating an api, and it returns a "cannot get"

what could i be doing wrong?

VerificAccessModule:

module.exports = async (req, res, next) => {
    next()
}

[earnest phoenix]

we cant read your code magically

[rustic nova]

Cannot get means that you're trying to access an endpoint (presumably through your browser) that doesn't have GET in its settings

[gleaming bolt]

c.c

[rustic nova]

But exactly we cant read your code magically

That looks weird to understand

[gleaming bolt]

c.c

I just forgot the / at the beginning of the route

lol

[torpid crystal]

so i was making an Afk system,

in my schema i save them as given below

const mongoose = require("mongoose");
const User = mongoose.Schema({
  userId: { type: String, unique: true },
 afk: {
   message: { type: String },
   stamp: { type: Number, default: 0 },
 },
});

module.exports = mongoose.model("user", User);

i have a afk command which saves the message and Date.now() for the stamp.

now i want when an user who is afk gets mentioned the bot sends an reply that they are afk.

so i trying this in my messageCreate:

  if (message.mentions.users.size) {
    let mentionedUsers = message.mentions.users.array();
    for (let i = 0; i < mentionedUsers.length; i++) {
      const afkuser = await User.findOne({ userId: mentionedUsers[i].id })
      if (afkuser.afk.message != null && afkuser.afk.stamp > 1) {
        await message.reply({
          embeds: [
            new EmbedBuilder()
              .setColor(client.config.embedColor)
              .setDescription(
                `**${afkuser.tag}** went AFK <t:${Math.floor(
                  afkuser.afk.stamp / 1000
                )}:R> for: **${afkuser.afk.message}**`
              ),
          ],
        });
      }
    }
  }

but this doesnt seem to work / give any errors. any suggestions what should i do?

Any way where i can know if the user who is afk gets mentions in a message?

[earnest phoenix]

Btw consider moving from Express to something more actively maintained

1. Express determines the behavior of your callbacks by their number of arguments
2. Express does not support HTTP/2.0
3. async/await isn't fully supported either: Express will not handle async route errors
4. Express uses some deprecated/abandoned dependencies from a long time ago
   A very close alternative is https://fastify.io/ , which is also generally faster too

voltrex maintains fastify confirmined

[earnest phoenix]

What discord.js version are you using?

[torpid crystal]

14

i kinda mixed it up with chat gpt's codes so probably messed up cuz it gave v12 code i guess ☠️☠️

[earnest phoenix]

The <Collection>.array() method no longer exists, you can just use the keys() method to get the IDs of the users mentioned, and use it accordingly

Basically

for (const userId of message.mentions.users.keys()) {
  ...
}

[torpid crystal]

oh thanks alot. I'll try it

[gleaming bolt]

is there much difference?

[earnest phoenix]

Difference in the library or the performance or something?

[gleaming bolt]

difference in writing, performance, way of creating an instance, that stuff

[earnest phoenix]

There are a few differences but the API is very similar to Express, so you can easily migrate to it, Fastify is much more performant than Express

[gleaming bolt]

I was seeing that I can create a route, passing an object, but if I want to continue with the functions, does it accept the method, query string passing the in the url?

("/router/:id")

fastify.route({
  method: 'GET',
  url: '/',
  schema: {
    // request needs to have a querystring with a `name` parameter
    querystring: {
      name: { type: 'string' }
    },
    // the response needs to be an object with an `hello` property of type 'string'
    response: {
      200: {
        type: 'object',
        properties: {
          hello: { type: 'string' }
        }
      }
    }
  },
  // this function is executed for every request before the handler is executed
  preHandler: async (request, reply) => {
    // E.g. check authentication
  },
  handler: async (request, reply) => {
    return { hello: 'world' }
  }
})

seems to be better to work with than the express

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah, though it also supports what you said
https://www.fastify.io/docs/latest/Reference/Routes/#url-building

[gleaming bolt]

hm...

okay

I will take a look

[viral badge]

imagine not using net or Stream 😏

[lyric mountain]

Express is no longer maintained?

[sudden geyser]

it still is

[latent rapids]

a

[earnest phoenix]

It is maintained, just not actively

[stiff dust]

I am using PM2 in Linux VPS to host my Discord Bot is there any way to do something that when files updated/deleted/added PM2 restart the process?

[charred prism]

i'm not sure if this is the right place, but I wanted to take a moment to thank the bot review team for making the verification experience such a great one, thank you!

[lyric mountain]

pm2 can track file states yes, but I don't think that'd be a good thing

[stiff dust]

why?

[lyric mountain]

it can easily snowball your bot into ratelimit

every single file change will make it restart

[quartz kindle]

just dont make more than 1000 changes per day :^)

[lyric mountain]

or 250 if you have 4 shards

[stiff dust]

[maiden dagger]

Hi

[tardy tapir]

Could someone give me a quick guide to markdown in top.gg bot descriptions (like bold text and stuff)?

[quartz kindle]

should be more or less the same as on discord

** for bold

_ for italic

for headers

[sudden geyser]

should look into commonmark examples as it should practically be the same

[tardy tapir]

Ah, I didn't realise how to do headers. I thought that was just bold. Ok thanks

Yeah headers still aren't working unless I did it wrong

[craggy pine]

You could style the text instead of markdown

[tardy tapir]

how?

[craggy pine]

https://blog.hubspot.com/website/how-to-bold-in-html

[tardy tapir]

oh right, thanks

It just appears like normal text on my bot's page, same when using **

Like no bold or anything

[quartz kindle]

headers need a space

# works
#doesnt

[tardy tapir]

Oh right

I'm just stupid and didn't pick up on that, thanks

[lyric mountain]

they changed it, AGAIN

really, how many commits does discord make for codeblock highlighting

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[sudden geyser]

(+ "oi?")

wtf

typing and sending code blocks looks completely different in colors

[quartz kindle]

oi bruv

[wheat mesa]

maybe they changed the syntax highlighting colors for the chat but forgot to do it for the preview

[craggy pine]

I've used mariaDB enough to usually figure out little issues I end up running into however this is stumping me. Simply trying to insert about 8 items into a row fails.
https://scs.twilightgamez.net/J6OJk.png
https://scs.twilightgamez.net/Yp8Co.png
Though this is the exact way I'd write my query for other things I insert. It's simply copy pasta'd

(node:internal/stream_base_commons:190:23) {
    text: "You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'character, character_url, anime, anime_url, image_url, rarity) VALUES ('Miyuk...' at line 1",
    sql: "INSERT INTO collection (user, user_id, character, character_url, anime, anime_url, image_url, rarity) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?) - parameters:['Miyuka','160679942319767552','Takeuchi','https://myanimelist.net/character/105721/Takeuchi','Koe no Katachi...]",
    fatal: false,
    errno: 1064,
    sqlState: '42000',
    code: 'ER_PARSE_ERROR'
  }

[craggy pine]

Resolved. Appearently it's not a good idea to use "character" as a name for a column

[lyric mountain]

same for all other keywords

u need to use "quotes" for calling them otherwise

[sudden geyser]

what is db

cause whatever data is doesn't have an ID key

[supple quail]

I'd console log data to check if it has "ID"

[wheat mesa]

This also seems like a terrifically inefficient way to store data

Columns exist for a reason

[supple quail]

I'd rather focus on why this error is happening instead of critiquing his code lol

[lyric mountain]

Quickdb: 👀

Btw, don't think that'll work at all unless js somehow manages to subtract two non-numbers

[sterile lantern]

i was following this tutorial to play around with cf workers but how come nothing happens when i do this

npm run ngrok is just ngrok http 8787

[sterile lantern]

nvm got it

[round cove]

What's the api URL I need to hit to get basic guild info like roles/emojis?

I thought it was https://discordapp.com/api/guilds/ with the users access token, am I wrong?

[sudden geyser]

If you want a guild in general, it's https://discord.com/api/v.../guilds/... where the second ... is the guild ID

In which you'll get this: https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/guild#get-guild-example-response

[round cove]

Ah is it just me missing the version?

[sudden geyser]

the first ... represents whatever version you're using for the api

e.g. 10

[round cove]

But does it take more than just the users access token for the bearer token?

Since I was getting 401 this whole time so I assume I probably need to pass the client secret or something.

[sudden geyser]

yeah you'll need to exchange it for some access token

[round cove]

I already have the users access token, they already logged in.

[sudden geyser]

you shouldn't be getting a 401 then

can you show your code / what you're doing

[round cove]

I can show a postman unless you understand C#.

[sudden geyser]

try writing Bearer instead of Token

[round cove]

That's just it's preview, it's already bearer

I'm going to try bot, I think that may be why.

Damn all 401. HMMMMMM

[sudden geyser]

I just tried the equivalent and I also got 401, but when hitting /users/@me, I get data. Maybe you don't have the right scopes?

[round cove]

What scope would be required to grab specific guild info? Hmm

[sudden geyser]

I think just guilds, though I'm about to check

hm, I still don't get any data

my guess would be that /guilds/... is not available on user oauth. there's /users/@me/guilds, but that doesn't include stuff like roles or emojis

[round cove]

Right.

[round cove]

It wanted the bots token with Bot as the scheme, which I guess makes sense.

Which can be nasty on the api if it request a lot... hmm

So need to do hella caching.

[crystal wigeon]

Hey quick question, how is it that a bot that has no privacy policy is allowed on app directory?

but then when i dont have it they take it down and send me an email asking me to add one? i still havent received a response

their TOS and privacy policy just literally takes you to their official server

[rustic nova]

Discord being shit with checking

Or the bot removing the privacy policy

[rustic nova]

That's actually fine iirc

If they're referring to a channel with the tos/privacy policy

[crystal wigeon]

I see, ig as long as the link is valid

Hmm well it just takes you to general chat

In their server but anyway any updates on how long they might take to respond ?

[rustic nova]

If they have a channel for the tos/privacy policy

[crystal wigeon]

It’s been 2 months since I fixed and reapplied for app dir

Still no reply from them

[rustic nova]

How should i know lol

[crystal wigeon]

Just asking ig haha

[sharp geyser]

you're supposed to know this kind of stuff smh

[earnest phoenix]

What’s the best paid javascript obfuscator? I preferably want something that takes place in the United States?

I’ll pay any amount but I’m not sure which paid ones are good

[wheat mesa]

Don’t help this kid, he’s obfuscating a clearly illegal and unethical script for stealing user data

He will claim it’s not but it’s the only reason he wants to obfuscate anything

[sudden geyser]

then why aren't they banned yet

[wheat mesa]

No ide

Idea

[sudden geyser]

did you try reporting them

[wheat mesa]

Nope

A while back he had this project advertised on his portfolio website, it was a bookmark script or some shit that stole people’s information

And he was advertising it as a paid software

I take it that he got some morons to pay for it and now he wants to use that to obfuscate it

Seems he took down his portfolio, still in his GitHub description though:

[opaque seal]

lol 14 years old full stack is some next level shi

[lyric mountain]

still working on that illegal shit smh

also people love to call themselves "full stack developer", but in my case that's the last thing I want to be called

please let me stay on backend only 😭

having to be a fullstack dev at work sucks

[wheat mesa]

Fr

[oblique sky]

basically you already a full-stack engineer if you are using frameworks like next.js or svelte kit xD

[wheat mesa]

Yeah apparently

[sudden geyser]

anyone who genuinely calls themselves a fullstack dev is just saying they're willing to work more for the same wage

[wheat mesa]

Fullstack dev is just a way to make yourself sound more accomplished tbh

[sudden geyser]

Software developer > all titles

[wheat mesa]

I don’t even call myself a software developer

I haven’t earned that title

I just say I’m a computer science student

[sudden geyser]

bud you write software

[wheat mesa]

Yeah but something about the connotation of software developer makes me sound much smarter than I am

Feels misleading

[oblique sky]

Made a todo app -> Software developer

[sick agate]

i call myself programmer

[sudden geyser]

coder

[oblique sky]

I was a Java dev before, and now I think I am a web dev

[wheat mesa]

Most of my experience is with Java

Definitely one of my preferred languages

[oblique sky]

I am migrating to kotlin nowadays

[lyric mountain]

All devs are fullstack unless your employer wants to pay less

You'll still work as fullstack nonetheless

[wooden ember]

any reason why my bot cant capture audio from my server any more?

did something on discords end change recently is what I mean

never mind it was just windows screwing my audio settings again

[earnest phoenix]

Help find the error
After I added bot.event on message the bot stopped responding to commands

[rustic nova]

What the fuck are these comments

Also your code contains some bots.gg api key

@earnest phoenix

[earnest phoenix]

ohhhhh

[lyric mountain]

why...the fuck

[earnest phoenix]

Russian comments

[earnest phoenix]

I'm new so sorry

I fixed

[lyric mountain]

u didn't

[earnest phoenix]

And reset token

[lyric mountain]

ah ok

anyway, I don't refer to the comments or the token, I referred to this

if something is taking more than 3 if clauses you seriously need to consider whether there isn't a better option

please use a command handler and don't keep everything inside a single file

[sudden geyser]

holy shit

[wheat mesa]

me when that defeats the purpose of a map in the first place

[stable eagle]

MongoServerError: E11000 duplicate key error collection: test.mewoprofilemodels index: parentOneID_1 dup key: { parentOneID: null }

What does this mean? parentOneID isn't even a key in my schema

[eternal osprey]

is there conditional chaining in java?

so expression ? true : false

[quartz kindle]

thats ternary

and yes it should exist

[eternal osprey]

owh my bad

  gameMode.isEmpty() ? System.out.println("yes") : System.out.println("no");```why is this throwing a: not a statement error?

[quartz kindle]

well, ternary is usually used for assignment: var a = b ? c : d, im not sure if java enforces this or allows it to be free floating like js does

[rustic nova]

yeah its mainly for assignments

or return values

well yes

[eternal osprey]

owh really interesting, js and c++ did allow the ternary to be used like the thing i sent

[lyric mountain]

using it for anything else is code stink tbh

[sudden geyser]

println doesn't return anything, which is why it can't be used to my knowledge

[quartz kindle]

indeed it appears that java does enforce it

[rustic nova]

IF the method returns something iirc

[lyric mountain]

java blocks a lot of things that c++ allows u to do

[rustic nova]

otherwise no

[quartz kindle]

i see

[lyric mountain]

mostly because u end up shooting urself in the foot

[sudden geyser]

because this works: System.out.println(true ? "yeah" : "no")

[quartz kindle]

so java must have a thing that says a ternary type cannot return void

[lyric mountain]

void

[quartz kindle]

yes

[eternal osprey]

Ah i see, so it's only for assingment and returning of values! Noted, thanks guys 🙂

[sudden geyser]

it has to be used in some expression

[lyric mountain]

use ternaries sparsely, if u abuse it you'll end up with an unreadable mess

[wheat mesa]

Yeah

[quartz kindle]

a ? b ? c : d : e ? f : g

[lyric mountain]

lmao

[wheat mesa]

I’ve seen it before

It’s terrifying

And usually only done as a joke

[eternal osprey]

I also had a quick question, is it possible to change the behaviour of a method based on parameters provided or not? So for example Method1() = random word gets logged in console, Method1(String word) = word gets logged in console?

[wheat mesa]

Somebody in my class claimed that they’re “faster” but if you compare the resulting bytecode they’re the same instructions

[sudden geyser]

how about this

true
? true
  ? true
    ? "yeah"
    : "no"
  : "ew no"
: "NO"

[wheat mesa]

Yes

[lyric mountain]

yes, by overloading it

[eternal osprey]

Huhh

[wheat mesa]

That’s called method overloading

They have to have unique type signatures in their parameter list though

[eternal osprey]

Is it like a interface? I just got that in the lecture

[wheat mesa]

Gives me ideas for esolangs

[wheat mesa]

Wdym?

[eternal osprey]

Owh no my bad i am stupid

lmao

sorry, Thanks for the response i will read into overloading.

[lyric mountain]

public void doShit(String in) {
  System.out.println(in);
}

public void doShit() {
  System.out.println("You forgot the param");
}

public boolean doShit(int a, int b) {
  return a > b;
}

[eternal osprey]

what does this constraint mean?

[sudden geyser]

alright who wrote that

[quartz kindle]

idk xD

[lyric mountain]

means u can't have a method with 2 (effectively) equal signatures

public void doShit(String in) {
  ...
}

public void doShit(String in) {
  ...
}

for example

[quartz kindle]

?

[lyric mountain]

you're in the wrong server I thing

and please, stop spamming

[quartz kindle]

if you need help with a specific bot, you need to ask in that bot's server

[eternal osprey]

i love you

did you know that

[lyric mountain]

🤨

[quartz kindle]

ghey

[rustic nova]

why does fucking java need a library for everything

or have to make multiple lines just to convert one thing to another

ah yes want this string in hex? sure add these 5 million lines that probably wont work

fucking good that I left that shithole

[lyric mountain]

Integer.toHexString(number) or "%X".formatted(number)/String.format("%X", number)

the latter also allows padding

anyway, it doesn't need a lib for everything, far from that actually

contrary to js for example

[rustic nova]

fuck stinkoverflow then

[lyric mountain]

well...it's stackoverflow

that site went to shit in the last decade

[rustic nova]

smh

been dealing with a situation regarding verifying someones email

like

why

is java just shit

I wanna port that shit bot over to python so I can finally rest in peace

[lyric mountain]

why dont u use regex?

[rustic nova]

lemme get you an example

[e-mail] ‍‎‌‎‌‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‌‎‌​​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‍

see this shit?

[lyric mountain]

yes?

[rustic nova]

shit regex of replaceAll("[^\\x20-\\x7E]", ""); doesnt do anything

[lyric mountain]

replaceAll("(?<=\\.[A-Za-z]+)\\W.+$", "")

actually, \W

forgot uppercase wildcards are the inverse of the regular version

[sudden geyser]

you'd probably want a library for that though

[lyric mountain]

but anyway, java isn't that bad, you just got overcomplicated SO answers

[rustic nova]

fucking finally

[rustic nova]

thanks big stink

[lyric mountain]

[sudden geyser]

are you using quickdb

pro what

try mapping while removing the prefix in the string

though you'd probably be better off using it structurally how it should be

given it has get and set methods (so you could set a points key which has an array/map of the points directly)

[tepid flax]

how would i make it so someone can edit my bots top.gg page

[sudden geyser]

maybe a team? do they have those?

though this is better for #support

[tepid flax]

oh yeah true mb

[open spire]

Hey can anyone give me the top.gg logo in svg format

[sudden geyser]

go inspect element on the site and copy the svg tag

[tawdry surge]

Does anyone know if theres any events for mongoose for when there is data modified, added or removed from a schema

[slender wagon]

question

can i use fetch in localhost

trying to test my api before release

if not what is the best way to test it

[tawdry surge]

try it, if not try 127.0.0.1:port

[slender wagon]

i am

[quartz kindle]

yes you can

[slender wagon]

yup figured it out

was using slash commands on my bot but i had put different names on the options and diffferent when i was executing them

[earnest phoenix]

Not true

I’ve got a shit ton of projects I would love to securely obfuscate

[earnest phoenix]

I didn’t do anything to hurt the server lol

[sudden geyser]

if you're writing malicious software and asking for help here, that is a net negative here

[lyric mountain]

so, what do you have to say about that bookmark info stealer?

[earnest phoenix]

I’m not asking for help on any specific project

[earnest phoenix]

What do you want me to say about it?

That I found something in that interests me for the time being?

[sudden geyser]

so it's malicious

[earnest phoenix]

It bypasses browser functions and does shit

[sudden geyser]

but it's malicious

[earnest phoenix]

Meh

Ip grabbers exist but they aren’t considered malicious

[sudden geyser]

yes they are

seriously it's not hard to say "yeah I write malicious software so what" unless you're like 6 years old

[earnest phoenix]

I’m not tryna be banned off of discord

[sudden geyser]

then why are you asking here

[earnest phoenix]

I asked about a paid JavaScript obfuscator, not for a script to steal someone’s ip

God is reading that difficult

[sudden geyser]

you asked for it while having a relationship with writing malicious software

that's. like arguing that you want weed while having a history of smoking it 24/7 and saying it's for something else

[deft wolf]

For a friend

[sudden geyser]

"yeah what's your social security number? I forgot mine :("

"oh and give me your credit card number as well"

[deft wolf]

And seriously, I don't know if it makes sense to explain it to him. He will keep doing what he does until he gets bored of it or gets banned from discord

It's probably best to just ignore him and that's it

[earnest phoenix]

Ion know what you want with me but at the same time I’m not wasting my time talking to you.

Yes, I have the script which can do that stuff. It mainly bypasses browser functions and does other stuff like crash sites and browsers.

I’m asking for a paid JavaScript obfuscator where I can obfuscate my current and new projects. Me asking for something doesn’t mean it had to do with my bookmarklet..

[sudden geyser]

shut up kid

[earnest phoenix]

That’s the thing, this is my last message of the day because I’m not wasting my time with you lol

• I plan on not getting muted from the chat
  Bye bye

[sudden geyser]

I thought you said you wouldn't waste time talking with me yet you replied again lul

[deft wolf]

I hope you don't come here too soon

[wheat mesa]

• hope you get banned from programming discords and other forums for making such malicious software

[lyric mountain]

who would guess karma exists :SurprisedPikachu:

[wheat mesa]

average 14 year old script kiddie

[eternal osprey]

hey, i have defined an array like this; char arr[] = new char[5];

How do i check if this array is empty tho

[lyric mountain]

array.length

[eternal osprey]

would display 5

I thought about looping throught the whole array and checking whether all values are 0

but maybe there's a faster way?

[lyric mountain]

an array filled with 0 isn't empty

it's filled with 0

[wheat mesa]

You can’t check if the array is empty really. Once you initialize the array, everything inside is filled with the default value for that type

[eternal osprey]

I know, but that's the way it's defined using new char[5]

the default type is set to 0

[lyric mountain]

yes, but it's not empty

[eternal osprey]

Okay yeah there you got me

[wheat mesa]

An allocated array will never be empty (unless you make the size 0 for some reason)

[eternal osprey]

I see. I maybe will just loop over the file and see whether all values are 0

[lyric mountain]

that's an option

just don't call it an empty array else you'll get reproved

[cursive musk]

@slim heart you created the Easy Applications bot? I thought it got discontinued since it was offline for months.

[slim heart]

discord deleted it, new account was made

[cursive musk]

ah i see, that sucks :/

[slender wagon]

so ik this might sound stupid but is using a json file as a small db for a side project ok?
I am always making backup for it too
like the db stores very basic stuff

[lyric mountain]

no

[slender wagon]

😭

[lyric mountain]

it's fine for read-only data, only

[slender wagon]

but a database takes so much space

[oblique sky]

Yes you can, but there’s so many other solutions that is much better

SQLite

[lyric mountain]

sqlite: 👀

[slender wagon]

hhhhh

[oblique sky]

Yeah

[slender wagon]

never tried

may as well use it now

does sqlite autoinsert ID's like mongo?

[lyric mountain]

yes

all but firebird does it

[slender wagon]

oh good to know

[lyric mountain]

tho it all depends on how you create your table

if you create a table with no id it wont add an id

[slender wagon]

I'll make sure to do a little research before creating it then

[lyric mountain]

play around with sqlite, if u mess anything up simply create another file

[rocky dagger]

i have a bot that gets media files from reddit but a lot of them end up as a gifv file and doesnt get displayed in an embed but it does outside an embed in a message by itself, any way to fix this

[deft wolf]

Of course you do, you need access to the imgur api

[rocky dagger]

thanks

[winged linden]

Can anyone help with that? 🙂

{"name":"DiscordAPIError","stack":"DiscordAPIError: Missing Access\n at RequestHandler.execute (/root/home/ufomain/node_modules/discord.js/src/rest/RequestHandler.js:350:13)\n at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)\n at async RequestHandler.push (/root/home/ufomain/node_modules/discord.js/src/rest/RequestHandler.js:51:14)\n at async MessageManager._fetchId (/root/home/ufomain/node_modules/discord.js/src/managers/MessageManager.js:221:18)","message":"Missing Access"}

[deft wolf]

The bot has no access, the error itself says so

[winged linden]

yeah ik sir! i mean how can i prevent that?

1. it isnt a command so i cant check each time a command is run, basically its a bot where it updates stats so how can i check if the bot has access in a specific channel before executing what should be done?

[rocky dagger]

and what if i dont have access to register on imgur?

[deft wolf]

There's probably nothing you can do about it. Gifv is a video file, so you can't put it in the discord embed in any way, but you can download its .mp4 version using the API and send it as a file on the channel

You can also do so that first your bot sends the embed and then in the next message it will send the link itself, thanks to which this gifv link will turn into a gif right under the embed

[winged linden]

@deft wolf any idea?

[rocky dagger]

i guess i can do that

thanks

[deft wolf]

You can probably use this to check your bot's permissions on a given channel but keep in mind that i checked it on discord.js v13 and based on message event. You'd have to tweak it in a way that suits what you want to do

message.guild.me.permissionsIn(message.channel).has("BAN_MEMBERS")

If you are using discord.js v14 then you will have to use something like this

[quartz kindle]

missing access means the bot cannot access something because its out of reach

for example a message in a channel that the bot does not have view permissions, so it cannot see it at all

or anything in a guild that the bot is not in anymore

maybe you have some message id stored in your database that is from a guild that the bot was kicked from

[deft wolf]

Bots can edit messages that are older than 2 weeks or does it only apply to deleting them?

[quartz kindle]

i believe the 2 week rule only applies to bulk delete

[deft wolf]

Okay, good to know

[quartz kindle]

but the bot needs read message history permission to access them anyway

[winged linden]

question

client.guilds.cache.get(serverid)

what does this return if it didnt find the guild?

[frozen plover]

it returns undefined

[winged linden]

yeah noticed that

[plush dirge]

@plush dirge

                    ?.then((msg) => msg?.edit({ embeds: [embed] }));
                }
              }
            }

i have that, but i am still getting that

just wait for a mod

i can't do anything

i already did

just wait for them

[winged linden]

Anyone can help :)?

[earnest phoenix]

1. Don't use the var keyword to declare variables, see https://javascript.info/var for the reasons
2. Don't use the non-strict equality operators (==/!=), use the strict ones instead (===/!==)
3. What discord.js version are you using?

[winged linden]

Clear for the var, but its working fine for all channels
(It shows true also for all of them)
I am logging to check which channels is causing that, and really not sure which ones

What perms does the bot need to edit his own messages?

[earnest phoenix]

The bot only needs the View Channel permission to edit it's own message

And refer to my 3rd question

[winged linden]

Then whats wrong, i really dont understand lol, its v13

I have been hitting my head for the last couple of days tryin to figure out whats wrong😹

[earnest phoenix]

You're checking for the Send Messages permission, that's not the same as the View Channel permission, and update to v14

[winged linden]

I will try view channel, but shouldnt it give "undefined" anyways if it didnt find the channel?

[earnest phoenix]

The bot can get all the channels even if it doesn't have the permission to see the contents of that channel, that's how it works

[winged linden]

Ohhhhh gonna try and do the view channel then, thanks alot 🐐

[quartz kindle]

you also need to account for the possibility that someone with mod powers could have deleted the bot message

although if that happened the error would be different

but still a good idea to prevent it from possibly happening by adding a catch to the fetch

const msg = await mess.messages.fetch(msgid).catch(() => null);
if(!msg) {
  console.log("failed to fetch message")
  return
}
await msg.edit({ embeds: [embed] }).catch(() => console.log("failed to edit message"))
``` for example

[winged linden]

I do 🙂
The ?. is more then enough, if it didnt find the message it just wont continue

[winged linden]

See the var edit...

[quartz kindle]

the ?. does not work for errors

only for undefined and null

fetch throws an error if it doesnt find the message

[winged linden]

hmmm i tested it though? It worked for me, i tried deleting it and it didnt send an error

[quartz kindle]

but you can do this (await messages.fetch().catch(() => null))?.edit(...) or this messages.fetch().then(...).catch(...)

[quartz kindle]

the missing access error you were getting is an example of a fetch error

the ?. didnt work, you still got the missing access error

[winged linden]

I will check and let u know 🤝 thanks though🤝

[compact pier]

I just made so much, by just making a website and sell rose (valentine day) to people from my school

im so happy!!

[maiden gazelle]

hello does somebody know how i can define user on line 6 after interaction.

[rustic nova]

let user = interaction.user

[maiden gazelle]

still didn't work

[deft wolf]

U mean ping him?

Like this @deft wolf

[maiden gazelle]

no

[rustic nova]

Be more descriptive

On what you mean

[maiden gazelle]

with ping its <@${interaction.user.id}> right

[compact pier]

yes

[deft wolf]

Yea so what do you want to do

[compact pier]

damm now it is called EmbedBuider?

not MessageEmbed()

[maiden gazelle]

when somebody does >afk (reasonhere) that the bot would reply with the username that triggered the command

[compact pier]

you mean ephemeral reply?

[maiden gazelle]

oh wait i already got it it was ${message.user.username} sorry

[quartz kindle]

you didnt describe your actual problem, but im assuming your issue is this

[deft wolf]

Interactions and messages are two different things

[quartz kindle]

otherwise you need to show the actual error you're getting

[maiden gazelle]

That's why I hate ADHD

[quartz kindle]

take a screenshot of the error and post it :^)

[maiden gazelle]

Alr I will do that next time it's fixed thanks for being so helpfull

[eternal osprey]

hey

 while(stringConcat(guessedLetters) == toGuess) {```toGuess here is a string

the method stringconcat gives me a string as well

but it's an empty string so it concats to values: nullnullnullnull

it always returns me true, even when i update the guessedLetters array so that each entry in the array contains a real non-null value

i've logged them, i literally found that guessedLetters had exact the same value as toGuess, it still logged false when using == or equals()

[wheat mesa]

You cannot compare strings with == reliably

Always use .equals for comparing value, use == for comparing references

[wheat mesa]

Are you sure one of them didn’t have a space of some sort?

Also I don’t know what the method stringConcat does

[eternal osprey]

Yeah pretty sure. Uhmm wait i will get back to you in a minute, i might be on the good track

[rustic nova]

guessedLetters is probably an array

and just puts them together using stringConcat

[quartz kindle]

concat and procat

and noobcat

[rustic nova]

timcat

[quartz kindle]

aurcatel

[rustic nova]

if your code is broken, just add the timcat() method to your broken section

if your code works, use aurelcat() to break it

if you wanna split atoms and break the universe how we know it, use both at the same time

[quartz kindle]

lmao

[eternal osprey]

I fixed it tho

I just looped over the string and compared chars

[lyric mountain]

just use .equals

looping over individual chars is pretty inefficient (which is why that's the last check in String.equals method)

[lyric mountain]

also, if you're doing str += otherstring just don't

concatting strings in a loop is terrible for performance

if you must do it then use StringBuilder

[eternal osprey]

Owh

thank you for telling me! Will change it

while(stringConcat(correctGuessed)){```also, i made this function that Stringconcat that returns a boolean value yeh

but the while loop iterates one extra cycle after the bool was true

any suggestions on how to fix this

[wheat mesa]

I wouldn’t be looping like that in the first place

[eternal osprey]

I might have fixed it by checking the value before initializing the while loop

[wheat mesa]

Not sure what you’re doing but it seems wrong

[eternal osprey]

Trying to repeat a certain amount of functions

while that condition runs

[wheat mesa]

It doesn’t feel like the right condition

Nor does it feel like that function should be returning a boolean

[eternal osprey]

It should, in that strinconcat i am checking whether the guessed letters form the correct word, if that's the case it returns true else it's false.

I changed the while already, added a ! obv

[wheat mesa]

Why not just build a string from the guessed letters…?

I suppose I’m confused on the design choices you’ve made

[eternal osprey]

because they can be guessed in any order

[quartz kindle]

that better not be an implementation of bogosort or something similar

[eternal osprey]

it's a hangman game

everything works fine, right now it's just not quitting the loop as you can see, it always waits one cycle extra

[wheat mesa]

I still don’t see why you need to concat the individual letters of the word if you can already tell when the user has won without doing that

[eternal osprey]

how?

[wheat mesa]

Once there is no more . left in the word you’re printing then the game is over

[eternal osprey]

goddayum

i am so stupid sometimes

[quartz kindle]

you're not stupid, youre a genious with a J, a jenious

:^)

[eternal osprey]

But wouldn't that still make the while loop enter 1 cycle extra

[eternal osprey]

[wheat mesa]

There’s probably even better conditions but I can’t think of them right now

[humble wharf]

Anyones Best Dpy Programmer Here?

[wheat mesa]

Don’t ask to ask, just ask your question

[eternal osprey]

I am the best programmer fr fr

[humble wharf]

🗿

[quartz kindle]

cant you do something like while(word.contains("."))

[wheat mesa]

Yeah

[eternal osprey]

yeah

[quartz kindle]

yeah

[eternal osprey]

Hehehhe

I got one simple dimple super simple question about my designing tho

this is my second week learning java right

I have created 4 seperate classes to handle my code, but one class that holds my actual game has still quite some methods and lines, is that okay?

The class only holds methods regarding it's class object tho, so no other bogus from other classes appear there

And they are methods that are really needed, just helper methods basically

[quartz kindle]

i mean, the actual code is what matters

you can organize it in any way you see fit

[eternal osprey]

Yeah i see

but my teacher once explained that too much code, too much methods etc are a bad practice

but like, wtf should i else do lmao

I kept my main clean asf tho

made my own class for input/output, game handling etc

so yeah

[quartz kindle]

its pretty much a matter of logic and reason, if you feel like it belongs there put it there, if you feel like a piece of code makes more sense as a standalone method, do it

if we talk about logic and semantics, there are 2 main reasons to split a code into multiple functions/methods

1 is the code being reusable, if a piece of code is gonna be used in more than one place or is usable as a standalone function
2 the code has different parts and sections that are relatively easy to distinguish

those are the two main reasons to separate the code into more than one method/function

[eternal osprey]

Ah i see, thank you very much!

[real oriole]

How does the api sent the Web hook auth token set on the account. I dont see it in my request under anything header, body, or query... any one know what I'm doing wrong

Or does it just not sent it at all

I mean the Web hooks section of a bot page, where it says url and token to use to auth the request.

[neon leaf]

is there any simple way of making a writable that does nothing with the data that gets passed? literally just outputs it on the data event? (nodejs)

[quartz kindle]

should be in the headers

[quartz kindle]

like a passthrough stream?

[neon leaf]

yes

[neon leaf]

thanks! I was doing new Writable() lol

this should be good code, right?

[quartz kindle]

yeah that should be fine

inflate is decompression tho

gzip and brotlicompress is compression
