development

[sick agate]

wtf

[wheat mesa]

That is not how it works at all

[neon leaf]

no

[hushed robin]

brooooooooooooo

[summer torrent]

it's javascript's runtime

[hushed robin]

you guys are so confusing

[wheat mesa]

Nodejs is an engine that implements the javascript specification that is defined by the EMCA committee and a bunch of people

[hushed robin]

i don't get how you make a language out of nothing

[lyric mountain]

it'll be hard to explain as he thinks js = coding

[wheat mesa]

You can’t really

Everything is abstraction upon everything else

[summer torrent]

javascript ≠ node.js

[sick agate]

there is always an abstraction layer below

[lyric mountain]

js is a language, english is a language, stone carving is a language

[hushed robin]

cus it is

[solemn latch]

To be fair, its a complex idea.

[earnest phoenix]

The funny part is how everyone tries to explain it and everyone explains it differently. No doubt they don't understand shit anymore...

[lyric mountain]

tl;dr: it's a language, nothing more than a way to explain things

[wheat mesa]

Ok so @hushed robin how do you think a computer works

(I just want to gauge an understanding here)

[hushed robin]

you put parts together

and turn it on

and it works

[wheat mesa]

No, I mean like, how do you think it processes things

The code that you give it

[hushed robin]

bruh

do i look like a genius to you

[sick agate]

you seem to be likely trolling yho

[wheat mesa]

On a nanoscopic level, everything in your CPU is a very complex circuit run by billions of little transistors

It's all electricity

[sick agate]

yup

[hushed robin]

bro how am i trolling

[wheat mesa]

And some of the things in your computer take that electricity, and use it as meaning

[hushed robin]

i don't know how computers work internally bruh

[wheat mesa]

For example, your RAM is basically billions of little switches that are either on or off depending on the signals they have been sent

[hushed robin]

billions?

[wheat mesa]

(Flip flops, don't worry about the meaning)

Yes

Billions

[sick agate]

yeah

[hushed robin]

physical?

[neon leaf]

yes

[sick agate]

yes

[hushed robin]

bruh

how we do that

[wheat mesa]

1gb of ram = more than 1 billion bits, aka 1+ billion little switches

[wheat mesa]

black magic of the computer industry

We spend incredulous amounts of money as a society researching how to make things small, that's how

[lyric mountain]

one transistor is 13 nm (correct me if wrong), which is just a few atoms wide

[hushed robin]

so

[sick agate]

isn't the latest tech 5 nm? nowadays

[solemn latch]

👀 we're below 13nm now right?

[hushed robin]

bruh

atoms?

[lyric mountain]

ah yeah, 5nm then

[hushed robin]

bruh

[sick agate]

yeah

[lyric mountain]

a cpu is a lattice of billions of very tiny transistors

[hushed robin]

why can't we do more complex things then

if we can make things this small

[lyric mountain]

because physics don't allow

[wheat mesa]

The diameter of a gold atom is 0.144 nanometers

[sick agate]

we are messing with the psychics enough

[wheat mesa]

So yeah, our transistors are a mere few hundred atoms wide

[lyric mountain]

if they go any smaller quantum shenanigans will start messing things up

[hushed robin]

what will mess up

[wheat mesa]

Technically the quantum world starts applying at the nanoscopic scale so yeah

[lyric mountain]

that's too complex for u to understand, don't try to go too deep in that yet

[hushed robin]

ok

[sick agate]

yeah

[lyric mountain]

but basically things at atom scale don't work like we know it

[earnest phoenix]

M1s are 5nm, currently 2.5nm being a sort of experiment and 2nm probably soon a thing if not already

[lyric mountain]

they start doing things that they shouldn't

[wheat mesa]

just wait until you take a physics class and learn that all matter is a wave 😉

but it just doesn't matter until you get into a small scale

[earnest phoenix]

Could go as small as 0.2nm theoretically but not realistically

[hushed robin]

i did chemistry last semester

i barely got past

[lyric mountain]

at 0.2nm the cpu will simply start teleporting things around

[earnest phoenix]

Actually IBM already has 2nm, my bad

[wheat mesa]

not the same as physics, chem is more about how atoms interact than the quantum world

[sick agate]

[wheat mesa]

makes sense, it's IBM

[hushed robin]

my teacher bumped me up 3% so i would pass

w teacher

[wheat mesa]

Ok so to get back on track, everything is an abstraction on top of other things. C is an abstraction on top of assembly, C++ is an abstraction on top of C, Javascript is an abstraction on top of C++, and it goes up and up

Fundamentally everything in your computer is being processed due to the laws of physics

[hushed robin]

sounds complex

i wonder how we achieved this

[wheat mesa]

So languages don't really "exist", they are implemented on top of other smaller things

[hushed robin]

very impressive

[wheat mesa]

To be fair we did discover the electron roughly 130 years ago, that's a super impressive transition

(We discovered electricity before then)

[hushed robin]

hm

[wheat mesa]

Let's just say that scientists are very smart

[earnest phoenix]

Yet Electron is still a wacky framework

[grim aspen]

I still wonder how we thought mixing ingredients to make something together

[hushed robin]

well

by mixing them

[sick agate]

trying and seeing

[hushed robin]

one day some guy decided to mix

and yknow

[wheat mesa]

Back to the topic though, javascript is simply a standard made by people saying "Hey, javascript should look like THIS.", then it is the job of people like Voltrex working on javascript engines to conform to that standard and make it work

[hushed robin]

it just worked

and spread it around

[grim aspen]

“Hm let’s mix eggs, flour, other ingredients” “oh look it’s a cake”

[hushed robin]

i mean

i don't really get this still

but

[wheat mesa]

What don't you get

[hushed robin]

how javascript made of nothing

[wheat mesa]

Ok I'll walk you through the compilation process

[earnest phoenix]

JavaScript is just a syntax

[wheat mesa]

(And behavior)

[sick agate]

yup

[hushed robin]

no

i think it's a waste of time tbh

[sick agate]

meh not really

[earnest phoenix]

Engines, made out of code, interpret that syntax according to the JavaScript standard and make your computer do stuff

[hushed robin]

i don't understand much i don't think i will understand this process

[earnest phoenix]

When you run a JS code, you use the engine that was coded in, e.g. C++, and give it some file to read, interpret and act accordingly

[wheat mesa]

Step 1: Look at the file the user has written
Step 2: Take those strings the user has written, and convert them into "Tokens"
Step 3: Take those tokens, and "parse" them into a tree-like structure that represents a flow of code
Step 4: Do compiler magic that isn't important for you to know right now and turn that tree-like structure into instructions for the engine to execute
Step 5: Execute these instructions in the engine
Step 6: You're done, yay

[lyric mountain]

Oh oh, wait, I know how I can explain

Code is just a "letter" u write to the engine

To tell it what to do

It's like we chatting in this channel

[hushed robin]

so

what engines are websites made on

[lyric mountain]

My texts aren't made out of anything

They're just that, text

[hushed robin]

cus my bot is on node.js but what about a website

[eternal osprey]

IntegerProperty value1 =  new SimpleIntegerProperty(0);;
    IntegerProperty value2 =  new SimpleIntegerProperty(0);
    IntegerProperty value3 =  new SimpleIntegerProperty(0);
    IntegerProperty value4 =  new SimpleIntegerProperty(0);
    DoubleProperty total = new SimpleDoubleProperty(1.0);```
```java
public void createSegments(){
        TextField[] array = new TextField[4];
        for(int index = 0; index < allValues.length; index++){
            TextField textField = new TextField(null);
            array[index] = textField;
            root.add(textField, 0, index);
            Label label = new Label();
           label.textProperty().bind(Bindings.concat(Bindings.format("%.4f", allValues[index].divide(total))));
            label.setMinWidth(200);
            label.setMaxWidth(200);
            root.add(label, 1, index);
        }```
hey so this will ofcourse show NaN as it tries to create a doubleproperty for a division with a 0. Is there any way to fix this? And upon startup actually showing 0.0000 instead of fuck NaN

[summer torrent]

you have to learn html & css

[wheat mesa]

Also on another note, this is a super cool visualization of size (Our transistors are around 10 * 10^-9 meters)

[summer torrent]

and framework maybe

[hushed robin]

tbh

do you guys think neuralink will be able to make people really smart

[wheat mesa]

I would never get something like that implanted in my head

[sick agate]

yeah no

[wheat mesa]

No matter how superhuman it made you

[hushed robin]

i would

[wheat mesa]

I do not trust someone else with that power

[hushed robin]

being super smart would be fun

[sick agate]

it would be but like

can't you just look at your smartphone

[hushed robin]

i also wonder why

there are no other smart animals on earth

why are only we smart

[eternal osprey]

dolphins, dogs, monkeys

[lyric mountain]

To be fair, smartness is inversely proportional to fun

[solemn latch]

👀

[hushed robin]

it's different tho

[lyric mountain]

The more intelligent you are, the more you see the world is boring

[earnest phoenix]

Completely off topic for this channel though lmfao

[sick agate]

no not really imo

[hushed robin]

but they are not as smart as humans tho

[grim aspen]

JavaScript, html

[sick agate]

development-and-philosophy

[wheat mesa]

no

don't confuse him more please

that's not correct

[hushed robin]

i am much smarter than a dog

[earnest phoenix]

not even philosophy

[hushed robin]

[wheat mesa]

ignore that

that's not correct

[eternal osprey]

you sure?

[hushed robin]

yes

[eternal osprey]

[hushed robin]

a dog cannot learn a language

can it?

[wheat mesa]

that doesn't make them not intelligent

[eternal osprey]

my dog can eat his own shit

[wheat mesa]

also you know that dogs take orders from humans all the time right

[sick agate]

yeah

[wheat mesa]

they may not understand what is being said, but they recognize the sound you make

and what action comes with it

[sick agate]

and then isn't language same

just a defined set of sounds

[hushed robin]

but they only recognize the sound and the action to do with it

they don't actually understand anything

[wheat mesa]

that doesn't make them not intelligent

you'd be surprised to know that there are other species with forms of communicating with each other

dolphins are super smart

[hushed robin]

well yah

[wheat mesa]

so are birds

[hushed robin]

but are their languages as complex as a human language?

[wheat mesa]

probably more complex given that we can't fully decipher them ourselves

[eternal osprey]

what thee hellll

[wheat mesa]

I don't see how that doesn't make them intelligent though

[wheat mesa]

wait someone actually doing swing correctly????? wtf

[hushed robin]

because

[earnest phoenix]

Is a human language even complex? How do you define something for the entire humanity for it to be considered complex.

[hushed robin]

more complex = smarter

[wheat mesa]

complex is relative

[earnest phoenix]

That's just speculations and random talk based on what you think and know.

[hushed robin]

yes

[wheat mesa]

I bet you don't understand the languages at a low level that computers use, that doesn't make computers intelligent and humans unintelligent though

[hushed robin]

cus why has another animal not learned it?

[eternal osprey]

it is javafx

[wheat mesa]

oh

that's why it seems not so dogshit

[sick agate]

they don't have very large interconnected communication ways

[earnest phoenix]

Speaking japanese may be complex for you but not for a Japanese born human. Does that make the Japanese born human less smart just because they talked the language this their birth? Highly doubt

[hushed robin]

no but

if i really tried i could learn Japanese

if another animal really tried they coudln't learn it

[wheat mesa]

But it wouldn't be as easy for you as a native speaker

[sick agate]

every foreigner i have listened to trying to spell my name had issues

[eternal osprey]

for some reason that NaN only appears when my initial values are 0

[earnest phoenix]

Off topic for this channel either way at this point. Also being an endless loop of the same sentences over and over.

[hushed robin]

true cus u don't understand

[wheat mesa]

well, you're dividing are you not

[hushed robin]

i haven't coded in awhile

[eternal osprey]

yessir

[wheat mesa]

actually from the look of it you might be dividing NaN by 1

[hushed robin]

i wanna make website but too hard and other things are boring so i'm not quite sure what to do

[eternal osprey]

i logged both values seperately and it worked fine, only problem is that .divide() doesn't allow 0.0 as input as the result elseis NaN

[wheat mesa]

since your fields are empty initially it might be setting the value to NaN

[eternal osprey]

I am using the built in javafx properties, this is not really about doubles.

[wheat mesa]

Just check if the value is 0 then?

[eternal osprey]

do you know how binding works? i can';t just manually change it because once i bind it it's set

[wheat mesa]

Mathematically dividing by 0 isn't defined, so NaN makes sense there

What is your intended result?

[eternal osprey]

well, if i startup the priogram i wanna see 0.0000

[wheat mesa]

From what I'm seeing online, you can define your own model class for this

That way you can control the binding behavior

Instead of being stuck with whatever default behavior SimpleDoubleProperty has

I might have to try javafx, their MVVM actually looks pretty intuitive

[hushed robin]

can you use whitespace in buttons

i want the buttons and select menus to align

so i want to use whitespace in those two disabled buttons to achieve that

[grim aspen]

actually it is

you would simply add whitespace to the 'label' attribute of the button

[hushed robin]

well

i'm trying

and no working

[grim aspen]

any errors?

[hushed robin]

no

there's just no whitespace

no work

:(

[grim aspen]

hm

[hushed robin]

very sad

L discord

also

does anyone know if Fandom has an API?

I want to get data on items from a game but manually inputting each item will take forever

seems it doesn't, scrapping it is

[wheat mesa]

I mean, looks like you searched a grand total of 9 minutes before coming to the conclusion that scraping is the easier option. I'd much rather spend some time digging to see if there's an API

[hushed robin]

i'm sure if there was an API i would have found in within 9 minutes of searching

[pale vessel]

Isn't fandom based on a heavily modified version of MediaWiki?

And MediaWiki has an API

[wheat mesa]

it's possible this is what you're looking for: https://community.fandom.com/api.php

that's what I found in ONE google search

[pale vessel]

lol there it is

[wheat mesa]

maybe not

idk

[hushed robin]

uh

[wheat mesa]

random reddit post

[hushed robin]

looks old

and too hard

imma just use this https://www.npmjs.com/package/hermitpurple

but it's kinda wacky

[lyric mountain]

Worthy to note, webscrapping involves using a headless browser (usually selenium)

So expect a spike in ram usage

Not big, but noticeable (even more if the library instantiates it on every request)

[hushed robin]

why

[lyric mountain]

Because browsers have to allocate some resources

Just like chrome or firefox

Much less than then since it's a headless browser, but still needs to

[hushed robin]

whats a headless browser

[lyric mountain]

A browser without visual interface

[grim aspen]

Shiiii may have to download one

[hushed robin]

oh ok

[prime quest]

how do you guys get the bot developer role

[earnest phoenix]

get a bot approved in top.gg

[prime quest]

ok ez

[earnest phoenix]

I do btw, all maintainers have direct commit access

But nobody should directly commit something in such extremely large and important repositories without a PR with appropriate amount of approvals and testing (through CI and stuff) unless absolutely necessary

[earnest phoenix]

(I also maintain JavaScript's specification )

[rustic nova]

you should make nodejs depend on one image called coconut.jpg

[earnest phoenix]

Gonna make it depend on images of capybaras

[slender wagon]

is it a good idea to send all my server crashes logs on a webhook

[civic scroll]

how do i become better at rendering

[earnest phoenix]

Depends on what webhooks you're talking about, if it's Discord webhooks then it can be a bad idea as lots of crashes might lead to ratelimits, you could also use https://sentry.io/

[civic scroll]

are there any guides to map soft mass deformation

i should program a physics simulator

[slender wagon]

so what is sentry exactly?

[earnest phoenix]

I literally says on their website

[slender wagon]

yep i just finished reading through it

seems like a cool tool

i will prolly implement it

gives out alot of cool info

[eternal osprey]

IntegerProperty value1 =  new SimpleIntegerProperty(0);;
    IntegerProperty value2 =  new SimpleIntegerProperty(0);
    IntegerProperty value3 =  new SimpleIntegerProperty(0);
    IntegerProperty value4 =  new SimpleIntegerProperty(0);
    DoubleProperty total = new SimpleDoubleProperty(1.0);

public void createSegments(){
        TextField[] array = new TextField[4];
        for(int index = 0; index < allValues.length; index++){
            TextField textField = new TextField(null);
            array[index] = textField;
            root.add(textField, 0, index);
            Label label = new Label();
           label.textProperty().bind(Bindings.concat(Bindings.format("%.4f", allValues[index].divide(total))));
            label.setMinWidth(200);
            label.setMaxWidth(200);
            root.add(label, 1, index);
        }

hey so this will ofcourse show NaN as it tries to create a doubleproperty for a division with a 0. Is there any way to fix this? And upon startup actually showing 0.0000 instead of NaN

[solemn latch]

👀 you could just not run the function the first time until an input is provided.

[eternal osprey]

hmmm, not sure whether that would work tho

[solemn latch]

why wouldnt it?

[eternal osprey]

cuz we are creating labels and textfields inside this createSegemnts function, so if we don't call this function on startup, it will basically.. well give me nothing

[solemn latch]

👀 so, your function for creating them also does the math too?

shouldn't that be a separate function, thats only called on input?

[eternal osprey]

public void addEvents(TextField[] fields){
        for(int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
            TextField field = fields[i];
            IntegerProperty property = allValues[i];
            field.textProperty().addListener(
                    new ChangeListener<String>() {
                        @Override
                        public void changed(
                                ObservableValue<? extends String> observable,
                                String oldValue, String newValue) {
                            if (!newValue.matches("[1 -9]\\d{0,3}")) {
                                field.setText(oldValue);
                            }
                            property.setValue(Integer.parseInt(newValue));
                        }
                    });
        }
    }``` check the segments method, you see that addEvents() call? Refers to above.

What the first method does, it will create the labels, and fields and binds them to their own private value. Then i created another method to bind a listener to each textfield.

so that's why its a bit hard

[solemn latch]

My java knowledge is zero, so I'm just spitballing.

If this runs on initialization, why not add an if statement if the newValue is empty set property to 0.000?

[eternal osprey]

because if we bind it, we cannot set a value manually iirc. It would destroy the bind and not update anymore.

[solemn latch]

are you not setting it manually here?
property.setValue(Integer.parseInt(newValue));

[eternal osprey]

that is the textfield, we are not bnding that one, only the label. And the label is also the one that gives problems.

[solemn latch]

ah, I see.

I also see I have no idea whats going on, and I cant really be helpful 😦

[eternal osprey]

ah i understand you, thanks for trying to help tho :.

[topaz terrace]

        }```

[earnest phoenix]

You're not passing the callback to the fs.readFile() method

Note the ) after .txt" at the first line

[topaz terrace]

oh wait

i got a new error

TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer or URL. Received an instance of Object

fixed

but

why does the time says 19 days ago

[solemn cipher]

because you entered it as a timestamp, which shows a specific time and not a duration

[earnest phoenix]

They most likely started the bot a few seconds ago before taking the screenshot.

So there's most likely something wrong with their calculations and now the way it's getting displayed.

[solemn cipher]

but the way they display the time with rich presence will always make it say “in ” or “ ago”

unless I missed something important and that’s what they wanted

[earnest phoenix]

It's not a rich presence though

And no you can have multiple formats

<t:TIMESTAMP:FORMAT> where STYLE can be any of the following: https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#message-formatting-timestamp-styles

[keen garden]

Hi

[solemn cipher]

but they’re trying to show how long it took to start… none of the styles for a timestamp support that

[lyric mountain]

What you want is duration, not a timestamp

Thus the timestamp tag won't work obviously

Duration requires a start and an end, you'll need to manually do that

[daring apex]

do replit have variable limit ?

[lyric mountain]

If you are worried about this, then you are using replit secrets wrong

Use a config file for anything that's not really sensitive

[dry delta]

What should be put in secrets and config.json

[lyric mountain]

anything that could potentially give access to sensitive data or accesses (like tokens) should be put in secrets

things like urls, paths, ids, numbers, etc which do expose anything dangerous can be put in config

[wheat mesa]

@lyric mountain stupid question, but do you know how to colorize the output on intellij's console?

Tried using ANSI escape codes, doesn't seem to work properly

[lyric mountain]

is it using cmd or pshell?

[wheat mesa]

The built in console, I believe it's powershell

[lyric mountain]

cuz intellij technically doesn't have a console per se

but well, it should work with ansi escape codes

my logs use it and do appear colorized

[wheat mesa]

Very odd

[lyric mountain]

try switching to pshell

the default is cmd

it's in the config, search for terminal

[wheat mesa]

Yeah it's using pshell

[lyric mountain]

weird

try cmd then

[wheat mesa]

Doesn't work either

[lyric mountain]

see if there's any plugin for that

it's weird that yours isnt working

[wheat mesa]

ok nevermind

I hate the internet

it was double escaping the backslash

\\u001B..... instead of \u001B.....

[lyric mountain]

lmao

[humble echo]

i need help pls

how can it not find it what did i do wrong??

[earnest phoenix]

You're closing the for loop early, and so the commandFiles variable goes out of scope

[humble echo]

early??

[earnest phoenix]

Notice the } after you call .filter()

[humble echo]

oh thank you

love you my bro<333

[earnest phoenix]

You're welcome

[wheat mesa]

man I hate fighting bugs in an ECS

😭

IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE

aghhhhhh

For some reason my removeGameObject() method doesn't work

Something is wrong with it, I just can't figure out what

hmmmm, I can't seem to remove components correctly either

maybe there's more wrong with this than I thought

oh maybe I'm stupid

yup that was it

I was calling the same listener more than once because my code is bad

[lyric mountain]

implement hashcode

[wheat mesa]

It's because I was a moron

fixed it

[earnest phoenix]

im tryna add a reaction to the embed thats being sent to another channel and i keep on getting errors

Code:

        setTimeout(function(){
            client.pollChannel.send({
                embeds: [poll]
            })
            pollChannel.react("✅");
            pollChannel.react("❌");
        }, 1500)

Error:

            pollChannel.react("✅")
            ^

ReferenceError: pollChannel is not defined

[deft wolf]

You add reactions to the message, not to the channel

[earnest phoenix]

i also did message.react("emoji type") and it gave me message is not defined

            message.react("✅");
            ^

ReferenceError: message is not defined

        setTimeout(function(){
            client.pollChannel.send({
                embeds: [poll]
            })
            message.react("✅");
            message.react("❌");
        }, 1500)

[rustic nova]

did you even define message, you need to define it

[earnest phoenix]

            message.react("✅");
                    ^

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'react')

[deft wolf]

Exactly, your message must be the embed you sent

[sharp geyser]

const msg = await client.pollChannel.send(...)
msg.react(...)

[rose warren]

Over 76% of my MAUs are now using slash commands. Adoption seems to have tapered off. Probably can't get the other ~24% to adopt them without being more aggressive about it.

Also interesting that my MAUs are still growing consistently at an all-time high, and total command calls have managed to get back up to the point they were at before slash commands in Jan 2022 👀

[slender wagon]

JWT or express-session

[spark flint]

Monthly active users

[delicate zephyr]

I use express-session

but thats purely down to the fact I already have a redis instance running for cache

[daring apex]

no i dont meant that i was just asking can we have a number of variables ?

[lyric mountain]

There's none

No limit

But at some point you need to ask yourself if you really need that many constants there

[solemn latch]

👀

the limit is how much memory you have

[topaz terrace]

do i need to add .save() after i use the model.create funciton in mongoDB js

[deft wolf]

I'm afraid that without this you won't even save this file

[topaz terrace]

how do i find everything in the collection in mongoDB Js?

[latent rapids]

Who made the topgg discord webhook vote website again?

I remember it's one of the mods.

[deft wolf]

Woo?

[deft wolf]

Something like db.collection.find() i guess

[slender wagon]

Jwt seems so much easier, you can even use it anywhere

And as a db i am using prisma

[pale vessel]

No. That's only for updating a model

[neon leaf]

so I have a union type with a bunch of strings, how can I give the user intellisense for them but also allow any string at the same time? (ts)

[wheat mesa]

type something = "a" | "b" | string; should work afaik?

[neon leaf]

then something ends up as just string

[wheat mesa]

Hmmmm

Does ```ts
type Test = "a" | "b";
type Something = Test | string;

[neon leaf]

same thing

[wheat mesa]

You could use an enum

It’s probably not exactly the result you want but it would work

[neon leaf]

afaik they fixed enum stuff in 5.0 so you cant input anything anymore

[wheat mesa]

And then just have your type be type S = EnumType | string;

[wheat mesa]

I didn’t mean exploiting an enum, I meant using it like an actual enum

[neon leaf]

oh right, lemme try

[wheat mesa]

Seems to work for me on ts playground

Unfortunately I’m on mobile so testing is kind of difficult

[bitter dagger]

/help

[lament rock]

Yeah that looks correct since A.a is assignable to type string and itself

since the type of the enum includes its members

itd be another story if you Extract<A, string>

But your example shows all enum members as being strings

Although I consider it bad practice to use mixed type anything

[neon leaf]

is this reliable? like will it always stringify the full function?

[earnest phoenix]

Yes

[topaz terrace]

im trying to get the client variable defined in src/index.js my current pwd thingy is src/imports/embed. i already add module.exports = {client} thingy.

[civic scroll]

why are you trying to export a variable

[topaz terrace]

i need it to get slashId

slashId is in client

[deft wolf]

What do you need slashid for?

I assume that slashid is the id of the slash command

[topaz terrace]

i need it for my

appeal command

its for the embeds

[carmine magnet]

hello, I'm trying to do things with conditional typing in typescript but it doesn't work. I get the error 'data.dataAfter' is possibly 'null' and I don't understand why because I checked if data.action is not delete

[radiant kraken]

if you are sure it's not null then add an ! prefix after that

data.dataAfter!.id

[carmine magnet]

hm ok thank you

[radiant kraken]

@earnest phoenix help ```ts
src/index.ts:169:31 - error TS2550: Property 'replaceAll' does not exist on type 'string'. Do you need to change your target library? Try changing the 'lib' compiler option to 'es2021' or later.

~~~~~~~~~~

tsconfig.json:

[carmine magnet]

it works thank you 👍

typescript is strange sometimes

[radiant kraken]

nah it's just typescript doing it's job

[carmine magnet]

🤷

[earnest phoenix]

There's no es2021 module version

[radiant kraken]

then what should i dooo

i tried esnext and it didn't work either

[earnest phoenix]

Use es2022

[radiant kraken]

nope

doesn't work either

WAIT

@earnest phoenix it works now

sorry i was dumb

[earnest phoenix]

Nah it's alright

[radiant kraken]

@earnest phoenix i was working on migrating from Jest to Node.js™️ v20™️'s native™️ test™️ runner™️ so i was writing a separate test.ts file, how do i supply several --lib options?

--lib esnext --lib dom doesn't work...

[summer torrent]

just specify it in tsconfig

[earnest phoenix]

--lib esnext,dom

[radiant kraken]

it won't work with just one file (npx tsc test.ts)

[summer torrent]

nvm i didn't see "several" word

[radiant kraken]

@earnest phoenix so uh how do i write a proper TypeScript™️ test runner in Node.js™️ v20™️ for my own project?

[earnest phoenix]

Though note that we haven't marked Node.js v20 as LTS so be careful using it for the time being

[radiant kraken]

eh it will be LTS anyway

also the functions i use are very basic

[radiant kraken]

i tried writing a test.ts file

so i can get TypeScript to also check the types

[earnest phoenix]

Well there are bugs and stuff users reported after we released Node.js v20 so there are stuff that needs to be fixed, but sure if you want to use it

[radiant kraken]

but i dunno how to run it

[earnest phoenix]

https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v20.x/docs/api/test.html

[radiant kraken]

i can do ```sh
npx tsc
npx tsc test.ts -t esnext -m esnext --lib esnext,dom --removeComments --strict
node test.js

is there any other way

[earnest phoenix]

Why is that unintuitive?

Also you should use the test mode by using the --test CLI flag when you're running a test file that uses node:test

[radiant kraken]

what's the difference?

[earnest phoenix]

https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v20.x/docs/api/test.html#running-tests-from-the-command-line

[radiant kraken]

yeah but i need to test it in a TypeScript way

[earnest phoenix]

How's that related to what I said?

[radiant kraken]

wait nevermind

[radiant kraken]

@earnest phoenix i can't do node test.js because it gives Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find module '...\dist\timeout' imported from '...\dist\index.js'

the first few lines of dist/index.js:

import { deflateRawSync, gunzipSync } from 'node:zlib';
import { randomBytes } from 'node:crypto';
import Timeout from './timeout';
import languages from './languages';

[earnest phoenix]

ESM requires the file extensions to be passed as well

[radiant kraken]

@earnest phoenix tysm, it works!!

sorry i've been stupid

[earnest phoenix]

You're welcome, and nah you're good

[radiant kraken]

@earnest phoenix ngl Node.js v20's test runner looks like a better replacement to Jest, you guys did a good job!

[earnest phoenix]

You're welcome for the test runner, though we got lots of optimizations to do as running multiple child processes for the test runner has quite a lot of overhead

[wheat mesa]

Time to learn how quadtrees work for enhancing my collision algorithm

currently my algorithm is REALLY bad

[earnest phoenix]

Imagine not using a space after statement keywords

[wheat mesa]

idk that's something I've always done

and IntelliJ doesn't stop me by default so >:)

[earnest phoenix]

Does the formatter really not put such spaces by default?

[lyric mountain]

it should

btw @wheat mesa

u can use a spliterator if u want to multithread that loop

[wheat mesa]

Yeah I'm not worrying about optimization on that, I'm going to be completely replacing it with a new algorithm in a bit

Or did you mean for the Set<Integer> layer : entities part?

Cus I haven't bothered with making the ecs threadsafe yet

[wheat mesa]

nope

I should probably turn that on

I'm sure there's an option for it

[lyric mountain]

mean the while loop

spliterator is threadsafe iirc

[wheat mesa]

ah yeah I don't need to do that anyways, the method is hella slow and I'm going to replace those while loops

[proven lantern]

if i want to change a bots permission do i need to kick it and re-invite it with the right permissions or can i modify it some how through server settings?

[rustic nova]

you can modify the integration-role permissions

[proven lantern]

this is read only right?

[rustic nova]

under the roles tab

[proven lantern]

ohh

[rustic nova]

that is read only yes

[proven lantern]

that makes sense, i'll update the role perms

thanks

[rustic nova]

should be marked like this

[proven lantern]

it looks like discord only creates a role for the bot if permissions are needed. if the users gives the bot no permissions and then wants to add permissions later they will need to manually create a role, give it permission, and assign it to the bot if they want to give it permission without kicking it. it might be easier to instruct them to kick it and re-invite it with permissions

[lyric mountain]

it's exactly that

[proven lantern]

my bot has manage role permission now, but the api call is still failing with this error

{ message: 'Missing Permissions', code: 50013 }

This is the call

await axios.put(`${URLS.api}/guilds/${guild_id}/members/${player.id}/roles/${roleId}`, null, {
    headers: {
        Authorization: `Bot ${discordTokens[application_id]}`
    }
});

Is it failing because it's trying to give me a role and i am server owner? Do i need to use the interaction token instead of the bot token?

[neon leaf]

whats a regex that matches the first occurence and the last occurence of a word?

[lyric mountain]

u dont need regex for that

[proven lantern]

so does the bot role need to be moved up above the role it's trying to assign or else it fails right? this is to prevent the role from acquiring more permission that it was given

[lyric mountain]

yes

[neon leaf]

I want to ship a function from nodejs to html (yes, its infact needed), now .toString() works fine but there is one mayor issue, I do not get all variables that the function is referencing, so is it possible to get all external variables the function is referencing and getting their values (in nodejs)? or is that not possible

[lyric mountain]

cant u just make an api?

[earnest phoenix]

Sounds like some X & Y problem

[neon leaf]

That isbt really what im doing, im letting a User define functions on the Server and I dont want them to have Errors that they couldnt expect

[lyric mountain]

process on the server and return the result

instead of embedding a foreign code into the page

[neon leaf]

Yeah but what about onclick handlers or stuff like that? I cant really do that in the server

Like Most Things I could do Sure but Not when you interact with the Page, i Just actually need it the way i described

[lyric mountain]

u can seriealize the event and send to the server

[neon leaf]

I dont think its a good idea to make a request on every event

[wheat mesa]

it begins

Still no idea why Java doesn't have a stdlib implementation of a Pair class

[queen needle]

what is that new Rectangle[4]? I've never seen something like yhat

[wheat mesa]

It instantiates an array of Rectangle objects with a size of 4

(Default values are null, null, null, null)

[queen needle]

Ohh that's awesome

[wheat mesa]

I'm beginning to like spacial data structures a lot

[lyric mountain]

if u know the size, use List.of() instead of new arraylist

[wheat mesa]

What's the difference

[lyric mountain]

it prevents the list from trying to resize during runtime

[wheat mesa]

Ah

Will do 👍

[lyric mountain]

List.of() and similar methods create a fixed-size list

[wheat mesa]

Wait what, List.of()?

[lyric mountain]

it's a static constructor

substring

[wheat mesa]

Yeah I know but like, it seems like it only accepts objects themselves

[lyric mountain]

or regext to strip numbers

[lyric mountain]

List.of((TheClass) null, null, null, null)

[wheat mesa]

ah

[lyric mountain]

there's another with number argument

dont remember what was it

[wheat mesa]

I could use Arrays.asList(new Class[4])

Is that what you were thinking of?

[lyric mountain]

I think so

this one will create an array-backed list

so fixed size too

anywhere u know the size it's worth to use fixed size lists as you save a ton of time not resizing it when it nears the limit

[wheat mesa]

ah I can't use arrays.aslist because I need a generic array

and casting would probably be scuffed

Also @lyric mountain List.of doesn't work because it creates an immutable list

[sharp saddle]

am too lazy to search, but well, someone explains to me what finally do when trying to catch a error? idk

like try {} catch {} finnaly {}

[wheat mesa]

finally will always run, regardless of whether or not you encounter an error

[sharp saddle]

hmm

[lyric mountain]

.set() doesnt work?

[sharp saddle]

only in Map i guess

[wheat mesa]

Usually it's used for cleaning up resources to guarantee that they're properly handled

[lyric mountain]

list has set too

[wheat mesa]

I haven't tried it, but it says "creates an unmodifiable list"

[sharp saddle]

thanks waffle

[sharp saddle]

oh

[wheat mesa]

Which I would assume means it's a readonly list

[lyric mountain]

I think it's immutable as in "cannot be resized"

[wheat mesa]

I'll try it rq

yeah that isn't gonna work for me

actually

maybe it will

yeah it doesn't like null being given to it

And I need null for this

[lyric mountain]

damn

[sharp saddle]

oh it's Java

[wheat mesa]

I don't think the arraylist does any resizing as long as I don't go above the initial capacity I give it

[lyric mountain]

isn't it when u pass 50%?

[wheat mesa]

I thought it was once you reached capacity

[lyric mountain]

dont remember it

[wheat mesa]

yeah it doesn't resize

same here

[lyric mountain]

nice

[wheat mesa]

@lyric mountain this is more of a structure thing, but my core folder is starting to get overwhelmed with things that don't fully deserve their own package, but also shouldn't be in the core folder. What kind of package should I make for this stuff?

[lyric mountain]

model

or utils

at least that's what I put my structure classes into

[wheat mesa]

Maybe I should make a structures package?

A lot of these are just basic structures anyways

[lyric mountain]

could also call it struct

there's no rule abt that tbh, whatever u find appropriate

[wheat mesa]

fair

I can always refactor it later if I end up not liking it I suppose

[lyric mountain]

yep

btw

for things that are immutable u can use records

they're quite new to java, but are structures meant to hold information

they're pretty fast to instantiate and destroy many times per second

[wheat mesa]

Yeah I've used them a few times, one of the very few syntactic sugars java has added

Unfortunately most of my structures need to be mutable afaik

[lyric mountain]

ah

[wheat mesa]

Although there are a few I could convert

[topaz terrace]

how do i get the client that was defined in index.js?
i have tried adding js module.exports = {client} and then requiring it in my file, but it shows me this warning. (node:18252) Warning: Accessing non-existent property 'getclient' of module exports inside circular dependency

[proven lantern]

Is there a tutorial somewhere that goes into detail about how to use the monetize api? if i enable this and someone subscribes how can i programmatically know who subscribed? i want to list subscribers for a month on my website, but i'm not sure where to begin

[earnest phoenix]

With the Discord API docs

E.g. role objects have the available_for_purchase tag set

[tough star]

hello there -

any suggestion for a discord bots host?

free or not but at least cheap

[earnest phoenix]

^

[deft wolf]

Though prices may have changed

That's why it's worth checking for yourself

[tough star]

anything within the limit of 2$ per month?

[earnest phoenix]

Search it up

[deft wolf]

Someone from the administration here probably has hosting or at least advertises it

https://novonode.com/discord-bot

[radiant kraken]

gotta love how toxic the python community is https://github.com/psf/black/issues/47

their only working code formatter doesn't even have configuration

[earnest phoenix]

lmfao

[radiant kraken]

@earnest phoenix time to make a pull request to Prettier to make it only comply to this very specific configuration and remove all configurations so it will become an "uncomprising code formatter"

[earnest phoenix]

Watch your pull request receive a thousand toxic comments and even ||death threats|| at the first hour

[radiant kraken]

when they complain just say that their code style is literally the devil

[earnest phoenix]

Python community is goofy ahh

[earnest phoenix]

@radiant kraken what GUI library is good in rust

[radiant kraken]

why

[earnest phoenix]

Are ImGui Rust bindings good

[radiant kraken]

why are you using rust to make gui apps

[earnest phoenix]

Why not

Want to learn it that way

[radiant kraken]

i've tried making a gui app in rust but my computer always died from the resource-intensive compiling process

[earnest phoenix]

[radiant kraken]

at this point i'd rather use C++/C#

[topaz terrace]

bump

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah ImGui is cpp

Though don't want to use cancer C++

[radiant kraken]

use Go

wrap it in an import "C" or something

[earnest phoenix]

Well Go has ImGui bindings

Feels just pain to install though

[radiant kraken]

oof

[earnest phoenix]

Also using import "C" everywhere which makes sense

[radiant kraken]

@earnest phoenix yapf, the only other python code formatter that allows configurations doesn't even work

[earnest phoenix]

Honestly black is awesome

[radiant kraken]

black is terrible

[earnest phoenix]

Wouldn't bother with tabs

Well autopep8 and black are considered being the best

[radiant kraken]

it would be awesome if it had configuration

it's way too strict with the whole "all Python code must comply with PEP 8"

[earnest phoenix]

Well it's syntax

How code should look like

[radiant kraken]

but other people have their own preferences too

[earnest phoenix]

I mean, Yapf is still in alpha stage so nowhere near being stable

[radiant kraken]

indentation, print-width, single or double quotes, etc

[earnest phoenix]

Then you can write your own

Or just don't use an autoformatter

Which will lead to inconsistent and more horrible code most of the time

[radiant kraken]

i can write a python lexer in rust

[earnest phoenix]

hi everyone

Lexer is one thing

[radiant kraken]

but it's too much effort

[earnest phoenix]

Then deal with what's existing

[feral aspen]

Hello. :>

[earnest phoenix]

hi

[radiant kraken]

Hello!!!. :).

[radiant kraken]

@earnest phoenix sorry for the long response but i forgot about tauri https://youtu.be/-X8evddpu7M

some say it's a good UI framework for Rust

[earnest phoenix]

Yeah but that's with React so TS etc. not just plain Rust

We have the exact same in Go so not really worth it

[radiant kraken]

[warm vine]

how to make vote command from top.gg does anyone know

[deft wolf]

Vote command in what sense?

[warm vine]

do u know to make

if we do /lava-link and if we enter it should show u did not had vote the bot in top gg after a member vote that member can get lava link

like that

do u know to make

[deft wolf]

It depends on what language your bot is written in, but everything is based on topgg api. Look in the documentation for examples related to your language and possibly some external libraries

[warm vine]

my bot is js and its v12

[earnest phoenix]

Why are you using v12?

[lyric mountain]

or even how

[warm vine]

because i codded my bot befor and the bot work was in pending that why now if i change to v14 it may take time that why

[warm vine]

any one knwo to support me pls

[earnest phoenix]

I would recommend focusing on migrating from v12 to v13 and then to v14, instead of focusing on implementing vote-locking because v12 runs on a deprecated Discord API version that'll be shutdown soon enough

[warm vine]

😦

[earnest phoenix]

And besides, v12 isn't able to handle quite a lot of the newer requests so your bot will frequently crash if you don't update

[warm vine]

😦

[earnest phoenix]

Here are the migration guides you should follow:

v12 to v13: https://discordjs.guide/additional-info/changes-in-v13.html
v13 to v14: https://discordjs.guide/additional-info/changes-in-v14.html

[warm vine]

can u tell how to do becaue i am in phone

@earnest phoenix

[earnest phoenix]

It's literally shown in the websites, read them

[warm vine]

but i cannot because my phone just have 1gb ram if i open google it will crash

bro

if i do npm uninstall discord.js
does not work

so what to do

i ned a helper

[lyric mountain]

TL;DR: you'll need to rewrite a significant part of your code

simply updating d.js itself wont cut it

[warm vine]

😦 but the main problem is with the uptimer command for my bot

if any thing so worng it all stop workin

[lyric mountain]

well, you need to fix those issues

[warm vine]

i need aa helper

[quartz kindle]

we dont have aa helpers, only bb helpers

[lyric mountain]

did you write your bot? or did you follow a tutorial?

[warm vine]

tutorial

[lyric mountain]

well, that's an issue

[warm vine]

yes i knw

after i hear the tutorial i made the code

[lyric mountain]

tutorials are timeless (they don't get updated with the framework), you need to focus more on "why" than on "how"

basically, try to understand why they did it, not on how they did it

[deft wolf]

Am I the only one who thinks it would be easier to write a bot from scratch on v14 than try to rewrite a bot from v12 first to v13 and then to v14?

[lyric mountain]

it is

same for implementing i18n or a11y, always easier to start again

[warm vine]

😦

my all hard work

for uptimer command

what if i do not add vote command ??

[lyric mountain]

you can't even add it for now

not without having the bot approved on topgg

even if you could, your bot is a ticking bomb as it is now, it'll start crashing more and more until it no longer starts

[warm vine]

??

iwill ad the bot tomarrow

[lyric mountain]

you don't have access to votes without being approved

you cant develop a vote feature if you have no access to it

[warm vine]

ook

oo

wait me add now

ok

[lyric mountain]

^

the more you wait, the harder it'll be

[deft wolf]

Also queue is like 1-2 weeks long so they won't approve it right away

[lyric mountain]

AND there's the chance it'll get declined if it crashes during test

[warm vine]

no

it never crash

because i codded like that

[lyric mountain]

^

[warm vine]

so that why iam not adding command

[lyric mountain]

you said you followed a tutorial, did you make any custom command?

like, commands not included in the tutorial

[warm vine]

yes

ss comand and server info command

and ban and moew command

i just looked the uptimer command in yt

[lyric mountain]

ok, ig

[lyric mountain]

@wheat mesa btw, I forgot to tell u, there's a handy plugin for intellij called spotbugs

it spot bugs that the built-in analyzer can't catch (such as possible runtime issues)

[wheat mesa]

👀

I'm going to install this rq

[lyric mountain]

basically a second layer for code analysis

[solemn latch]

👀

[lyric mountain]

was staring at my screen until i remembered I had it installed lul, didn't have much too fix, mostly possibly-null values in if branches

[wheat mesa]

🫠

[lyric mountain]

malicious code vulnerability lmao

I like it cuz it explains to you each catch

in the right panel

[wheat mesa]

some of the complaints are about unread/unwritten fields but it just can't tell that I'm using reflection for some stuff tbf

[lyric mountain]

ah yeah, it spots those cuz no getters/setters

fairly safe to ignore

[wheat mesa]

This might be useful later on when I clean up the codebase, but as of right now it's going to be annoying

I'm going to disable it for now then use it later

[lyric mountain]

afaik it doesn't analyze automatically, I just leave it there

ofc, make sure this is disabled

else it'll check on every commit

[wooden ocean]

I'm trying to connect to my lavalink server and it say connected then it throws this error

Is there something in Electron that I can use to encrypt user data with?
Not as in a function but as in like, a passkey

[lament rock]

If you're using a LavaLink version above 3.7, downgrade LavaLink or upgrade your client to one that supports the new rest api

[lyric mountain]

electron is just a framework to run node projects as a self-contained app

[lament rock]

isnt it webjs since it uses chromium

[radiant kraken]

what's the difference

[earnest phoenix]

It's in Go

[radiant kraken]

yeah i mean

generally

besides their languages

[earnest phoenix]

Nothing much as said

We have the exact same in Go so not really worth it
maybe some tiny differences that the average user does not care

[radiant kraken]

nice

[wicked pivot]

while I use a slash with my bot, as long as the command is not finished I cannot execute another one. It's normal ?

[earnest phoenix]

If you coded it like that, yes

[wicked pivot]

No, I didn't code that.

maybe the fact that I use Promise?

[lyric mountain]

if anything, it'd be not using a promise

js is monothread, if ur doing something that hangs the runtime it'll affect everywhere

[wicked pivot]

//exemple command

[earnest phoenix]

Sending code won't change what was said

[wicked pivot]

I sent before receiving the answer

[lyric mountain]

what's redifMatch?

[wicked pivot]

creation of several images with canvas and then combined with giftencoder

[earnest phoenix]

There you go

[wicked pivot]

the command takes about 30s to execute

And so an alternative to that?

[earnest phoenix]

There's no alternative really, that's just how much it takes to execute, you can't do anything that makes it execute in much less time

Optimizing it won't make that big of a difference in this case

[lyric mountain]

that's not the issue, that command hangs the whole bot

[wicked pivot]

And if I make sure that everything is done in the order file (so no more promises we agree that the bot will not be "blocked"

[lament rock]

Don't use synchronous IO calls

[lyric mountain]

yeah, that's very likely it

[earnest phoenix]

Oh, then they're doing something that blocks the main thread, you could try showing what you're doing in the redifMatch() function

[wicked pivot]

async function redifMatch(data, white, black, result){
    return new Promise(async(resolve, reject) => {
        try{
            const canvas = createCanvas(840, 1180)
            const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d')
            const encoder = new gifencoder(canvas.width, canvas.height)

            encoder.start()
            encoder.setRepeat(-1)
            encoder.setDelay(500)
            encoder.setQuality(10)
            //
            //canvas 
            //
            for(let element of movement){
                let img = await loadImage(await createBoard(await chess.fen()))
                ctx.drawImage(img, 100, 280, img.width, img.height)

                encoder.addFrame(ctx)
            }
            encoder.finish()
            
            const buffer = encoder.out.getData()

            resolve(buffer)
        }catch(err){
            reject(err)
        }
    })
}```
Function is not complete too long for discord is useless (rectangle tracing/writing etc etc)

[earnest phoenix]

Share it in a bin like https://sourceb.in/

[wicked pivot]

In any case, the command takes around 30 to 60 seconds to execute and when it is executed it is as if the bot did not want to respond.

[surreal sage]

Is there something in URLSearchParams where it leaves out a param if it's value is something?

Like undefined?

[wicked pivot]

https://sourceb.in/vnOTx7fMUW

[lyric mountain]

build the urlsearchparams separate from the request

const params = {}
if (something) {
  params["key"] = value
}

[surreal sage]

"boring"

ty tho

[lyric mountain]

the boring options is sometimes the best option

[surreal sage]

😭

[lyric mountain]

not all code needs to be shiny and techy

[earnest phoenix]

1. Declare variables that are not going to change with the const keyword like counter, img, etc etc
2. Leave constants out of the functions where their values are always the same, like the cors variable
3. Wrapping all of those functions in a Promise executor is a bad idea because not all of them need it
4. Lines 34 and 35 can be refactored to

const lowLetter = letter.toLowerCase();

if (!(lowLetter in cors)) return;

counter[key][lowLetter]--;

5. At lines 139 and 140, you can just do !element.includes()
6. Finally, load all of the images you're gonna use in memory because you seem to be repeatedly loading the images you use many times, like the images of the chess pieces

[lyric mountain]

btw, just to add to it, gif might not be your best format

matches longer than a few turns will easily surpass the level 3 discord upload limit

[wicked pivot]

What format would you recommend? ?

[wicked pivot]

thx !

[lyric mountain]

honestly, the best would be mp4

if discord supported apngs then it'd be the ideal option

[mint needle]

None

[glass marsh]

Hey I want to get my bot verified on discord. Do I have to enter my real information like name etc. in the terms of service?

[earnest phoenix]

No

[glass marsh]

okay thanks

[earnest phoenix]

The information you give during the verification is not the question they asked though.

The terms of service/use of their bot does not need to contain their real name etc. they can just use the bot's name or similar or simply "Bot"

Same for the privacy policy

[glass marsh]

But is this the case in all countries? i thought it was a must in germany / europe to conatein their real name etc

[earnest phoenix]

https://www.termsfeed.com/blog/sample-terms-of-service-template/ contains everything you need to know about Terms of Services

[glass marsh]

Thank you

[surreal sage]

CSS is totally my favorite

gotta love 20 rules for just one class

or one button

oh hell no

bye

no

nope

hell no

more work for the same thing

except you have to maybe google a bit

to get the right rules

but no thanks

there's a reason why I don't use style attributes and use css files instead

To not have a HTML mess

[rustic nova]

bootstrap

[surreal sage]

bootstrap decent

[rustic nova]

tru

[surreal sage]

but doesn't work for everything

[rustic nova]

slay

true

:(

[surreal sage]

😩

https://m3.material.io/

waiting for desktop

web support planned but tbd 😭

[rustic nova]

ye

[surreal sage]

shit looks good

good for quick apps

[rustic nova]

is that made by google

?

[surreal sage]

yea

[rustic nova]

guessed so

design looked familiar

[surreal sage]

the only guys who can have text this big and have it look good

but yea looks good

oh hell yeah

i thought you couldn't do .emit and .on on ipcMain with electron on just the back end

🔥

[lyric mountain]

that looks like windows 11 menus

[surreal sage]

lol

[spark flint]

tailwind is better imo but material is nice

[surreal sage]

Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework for rapidly building modern websites without ever leaving your HTML.

without ever leaving your HTML.

without ever leaving your HTML.

[spark flint]

yes

its great

[surreal sage]

what scares me ^

[spark flint]

class="bg-black" for black background

simple like that

[surreal sage]

i prefer this over 1 file

nrly relevant this img

[surreal sage]

Yes

I like sorted things

HTML is just 3 colors all over on default in VSC

and then 20 classes getting added

[ancient nova]

hello bois

i am back once again with a new PC

[lyric mountain]

did your former pc explode from fiddling with available memory?

[feral aspen]

I'm trying to figure out why https://hamoodihajjiri.com/blog aren't displaying the blogs, it's only displaying during next build.

[lyric mountain]

console my boy, console

[feral aspen]

What does that even mean?

[lyric mountain]

means ur ssl is invalid for that domain

[feral aspen]

I'm a bit confused.

[lyric mountain]

not for the base url, for the resource url

hm, did u try without www?

I noticed I get redirected the moment I access the resource url

[feral aspen]

Hmm, it does return revalidated as true when I don't access it via www.

[ancient nova]

yeah lol

won't do it again

it looks so clean i almost don't wanna start downloading every single app i had before

[lyric mountain]

did you specify your ssl address as www.hamoodblablabla.com or hamoodblablabla.com?

cuz that matters

[feral aspen]

How do I check that?

Do you mean this?

[lyric mountain]

remove www

[lyric mountain]

no, I mean in the certificate

where did u get yours?

[feral aspen]

Ohh, in the Let's Encrypt?

[lyric mountain]

also damn why axios

[feral aspen]

Let me double check.

[lyric mountain]

it's such a bloated lib

[feral aspen]

Honestly, I've been following this one tutorial for like months and this dude kept talking how axios is this and that.

[lyric mountain]

axios is unnecessarily bloated, like, really

node fetch does everything axios can do but is more lightweight

[feral aspen]

I'll probably consider switching, really. I just need to figure out what I'm doing.

[lyric mountain]

btw, just as an aesthetics tip, use something else instead of secret for the name of the key

[feral aspen]

What do you mean?

[lyric mountain]

secret doesn't sound very safe to be in an url

[lyric mountain]

like, use &v=thekey or smth

or better yet, use a post request + body

which u should if that secret is something sensitive

[feral aspen]

Also, it yet doesn't display:

[lyric mountain]

well, the error is gone at least

lets see network tab

is it portfolio.json?

[feral aspen]

Don't have a file with that name.

[grim aspen]

There’s gotta be a portfolio file

[thin tide]

I'm running about 100+ bots with a single script, how do I reduce the bots resource consumption? How do I make it more stable? Heroku crashes continuously. I'm using the code below, any other suggestions?

   intents: 1, 
  
   makeCache: Options.cacheWithLimits( 
     { 
       ...Options.defaultMakeCacheSettings, 
       MessageManager: 0, 
       ThreadManager: 0, 
       ThreadMemberManager: 0, 
       UserManager: 0, 
       GuildMemberManager: 0, 
       GuildBanManager: 0, 
       GuildEmojiManager: 0, 
       GuildStickerManager: 0, 
       GuildInviteManager: 0, 
       GuildStickerManager: 0, 
     } 
   ) 
 }```

[feral aspen]

The portfolio content is displaying fine, actually. I called the main file index.tsx in it, though it's the blog content that's not displaying.

[grim aspen]

What

Wtf

[deft wolf]

Why do you run 100+ bots

[grim aspen]

That was going to be my first question

[deft wolf]

Looks like someone is doing something against ToS here

[grim aspen]

How are they running 100 bots in one file

[rustic nova]

I can tell you

heroku will not run your 100 bots

[lyric mountain]

index.json did load, are you updating the body?

[deft wolf]

I don't know if even my VPS with 4gb of ram would run it

[grim aspen]

The more I look at it the more questions I have

[feral aspen]

I'm unsure.

[lyric mountain]

simple, you don't

[rustic nova]

nah it is easily able to do that, though mostly only tried with 10

but can easily tell you

100

[grim aspen]

Without frying the vps, it’s nearly impossible

[lyric mountain]

first thing is WHY you're running 100+ bots in JS which by itself can barely handle a single bot

[rustic nova]

make sure you're on djs 500 for that

[lyric mountain]

I cant even see a single speck of reason to run more than 10 bots

like, focus on a few bot projects damn

[rustic nova]

max I've done is run 10 bots concurrently to test stuff, otherwise just separate processes

[lyric mountain]

I have 3 bot accounts, but only 1 working bot

[grim aspen]

My man’s on another IQ level above us
