serverless hosting
quartz kindle
does the host support node.js?
young flame
call what quits

your in your feelings cause i joked about ts-node
quartz kindle
if it runs node.js then it supports fs
most "serverless" hosts just run an ephemeral disk

depends on where you're using fs

wait so you're not requiring server side? you're requiring on client side?
mellow kelp
of course you can't use fs on the frontend part, but you can at least use it on the server-side

Bro, they should just have a native check on the npm module

requis is my discord variable
you said files?
ill try it out
it gave a error

I am still unsure what to do next. I have my code in visual studio now. I am using heroku to have it online, but I don't think localhost database is gonna work with it. Heroku does have "heroku-postgres" which I did look into, and it was 1gb storage free (I have no clue if this is enough or not) more then that I have to pay. I don't have money to spend on this, especially since I am just learning. I don't know if I should switch a vps or switch to new database, if you know something please let me know else you can ignore.

files with an array
put the whole thing in

youre not running the command anywhere
Can you explain a bit?
quartz kindle
what is the name of the actual function that runs the commands?
run()?
execute()?
earnest phoenix
run()
earnest phoenix
The file?
earnest phoenix
Lemme check
quartz kindle
i dont see command.run() anywhere
quartz kindle
looks like a font loading problem
young flame
o
young flame
uh lemme see
earnest phoenix
Tim, which line should I add command.run() @quartz kindle
quartz kindle
where do you think?
earnest phoenix
Line 13? @quartz kindle
quartz kindle
how did you come to that conclusion lol
earnest phoenix
how did you come to that conclusion lol
No idea thought it was the top line, true?
earnest phoenix
Tim, you're basically witnessing a "please spoon-feed me" moment
Not really, I just need help it’s not really spoon-feeding if it’s just a line...
quartz kindle
No idea thought it was the top line, true?
how would the code know which command to run at the top of the file?
quartz kindle
the top of the file has the list of all commands, but has 0 information on the message the user sent

Oh uh so line 101?

there is nothing about commands there

I’m confused, do you mean in index.js or in my commands? @quartz kindle
earnest phoenix
ski
quartz kindle
I’m confused, do you mean in index.js or in my commands? <@180112943612952577>
in the index.js
earnest phoenix
Lol
young flame
your bald at the top right
earnest phoenix
in the index.js
So uh basically the last line?
young flame
earnest phoenix
earnest phoenix
Why would I even need that?
quartz kindle
then logically, it has to be somewhere there command exists
earnest phoenix
Well, it worked before without that..
quartz kindle
command doesnt exist at the bottom of the file, nor at the top
earnest phoenix
Then where should it be?
young flame
bruh
quartz kindle
Well, it worked before without that..
it stoped working because you removed it
earnest phoenix
it stoped working because you removed it
Oh... true
quartz kindle
Why would I even need that?
if your command has a run() function, then you need to call that function, otherwise how is the command supposed to run
earnest phoenix
I was kinda rushing while coding, ima check my old index file and see what’s there
quartz kindle
the run() part is what actually makes the code inside the command run
otherwise that code will just sit there and do nothing
earnest phoenix
True, well thanks for making me realize that
@quartz kindle command.run(message, args, client);
Right?
quartz kindle
if thats what the run function needs, yes
earnest phoenix
Yes, it does. Thanks fellow guy lol..

im using discord.js for my bot, im trying to get my bot to read the full list of members in my server but it only works with the first two
quartz kindle
i dont use canvas constructor
quartz kindle
im using discord.js for my bot, im trying to get my bot to read the full list of...
accessing the list of members has 2 rules:
- the bot does not start with the full list, you have to manually ask discord to send you the list using the fetch() method
- discord will only give you the full list if your bot has the "server members" intent enabled in your developer portal
buoyant aspen
any clue why this might be returning unknown user?
const dsc = await client.users.fetch(report.user);
````report.user` is defined, it's a discord user id stringdoes it need to be an int?
quartz kindle
no it needs to be a string
console.log it to make sure its correct, if its still doesnt work, then the id is invalid or the user doesnt exist
summer torrent
the user isn't in cache i think
buoyant aspen
console.log was correct
summer torrent
is fetch fetches it from api
quartz kindle
yes
buoyant aspen
the user isn't in cache i think
how can I cache users? (members are all cached, they cache on startup for various reasons)
quartz kindle
fetch already does it
summer torrent
there is options
dense jungle
can 2 different bots be hosted on one server?
summer torrent
yes why not
quartz kindle
the code is not the issue, fetch is correct
if it returns unknown user then the id really is unknown
are you sure the id exists?
buoyant aspen
yeah
dense jungle
yes why not
getting a weird issue where a command where even the prefix is different registers with both bots
summer torrent
show error
dense jungle
could be my command handler
buoyant aspen
if it returns unknown user then the id really is unknown
how can I cache them?
if that's the issue
quartz kindle
thats not the issue
the fetch() method automatically caches it
whats the id of the user in question?
dense jungle
show error
http://f.perrypal.tk/SCrESakyVr.png the command I used is for a different bot but the bot with -help gets triggered

quartz kindle
if something returns a promise then what do i do to actually get the data from t...
there are two ways to get data from a promise
jolly ether
Does anyone here play genshin impact? I'm looking for someone to give me feedback on a bot I'm making
quartz kindle
one way is to force the code to wait for the promise, and continue once the promise has fulfiled. this is achieved using the async/await syntax
the other is to set a function to be executed once a promise fulfills, and have the rest of your code continue running while it waits. this is achieved by using the .then() method
dense jungle
do both bots have commands with the same name?
yep I just found out that node applications share variables
dense jungle
oh shit
jolly ether
Lmao
quartz kindle
i mean, they do if you run both bots in the same file lol
dense jungle
which is not what I am doing

and with node 14 it works?
Wait what version is node on

I would need to check mine

@quartz kindle http://f.perrypal.tk/bkD9Ij8uux.png but then this happens
the help command still has to be coded but the first bot has a clearly different prefix
which is -
quartz kindle
show the code for your command handler

Actually technically you could do that
just define them as 1 / 0
or true and false
either or
dense jungle
@quartz kindle It worked! Something wrong with the command handler
opal plank
just rename `true` and `false`
const disablable = false,

now just use them in your code

<@!188836645670223872> do you like the Luca ascii art
absolutely
delicate zephyr
you do not even understand how long it took to make it look right
I did it manually
opal plank
i should disable my linter and turn my code in ascii

First time I looked at it I was like wtf
delicate zephyr
First time I looked at it I was like "I can do something here"
quartz kindle
luca best bot
opal plank
First time I looked at it I was like "I can do something here"
totally worth it
zenith terrace
42 forks as well, idk if some are legit trynna steal code or not
opal plank
judging by the masses here, probably the former
delicate zephyr
totally worth it
it definitely was
tempted to make an easter egg for the Luca bot page on dblstats
that posts the ascii to the users browser console
delicate zephyr
yea I added the rolling daily stats
since someone asked for it
plus added a temporary remedy for the gaps that constantly happen on the board
opal plank
most of it matches my data, just more detailed
delicate zephyr
well as long as top.gg doesnt go down and you're consistantly posting enough every hour
it'll always be accurate
opal plank
delicate zephyr
yea grafana is cool
opal plank
grafana bae af
thats the only thing that i'd miss from dblstatisics, a way to query by time
last week
between yesterday and 4 days ago
thats one of the big upsides of grafana, being able to query within a range
delicate zephyr
Yea
its planned but tbh its a pain in the ass with the amount of data we have
Like I would say we could display all the data on the graph
but the graphs would uh
lag
opal plank
lmao i feel ya
grafana has a hard time pulling all those sources too
its quite intensive on the browser
some are fetch, some are pg queries, some are prom, some are elk
and all updating every 5 seconds
its really resource hungry
delicate zephyr
yup
opal plank
adapting this for overall usage is a big hassle
delicate zephyr
Hold on
lemme show you whats happened over the last 2 months
since we deprecated the old site
delicate zephyr
delicate zephyr
dblstats went brrrr
opal plank
the ONLY thing i give feedback upon is the locale and browser time
delicate zephyr
hmm?
opal plank
delicate zephyr
Oh right
quartz kindle
look at my votes lmao
opal plank
thats the only improvement/suggestion i'd give
opal plank
smol votes
opal plank
quartz kindle
it crashed the page
how lmao
quartz kindle
just literally new Date(timestamp)
delicate zephyr
300k large for every bot
opal plank
the browser should query it
earnest phoenix
delicate zephyr
Yea I compile the hourly data down
opal plank
just send the unix timestamp and convert it on the browser
delicate zephyr
that would mess up the dates
since i use the 23rd hour of UTC to calculate the times
which would make it inaccurate
opal plank
@earnest phoenix im getting more votes than you with a 1k bot? pog
quartz kindle
its not innacurate
delicate zephyr
<a:topgg_codebase:782746686983766037>
those gaps will be gone when I rewrite the fetcher
quartz kindle
timestamps are timestamps
earnest phoenix
Only 2 commands have voting requirements
quartz kindle
so your backend is offset by 1 hour?
opal plank
mine doesnt have any requirements for voting lol
earnest phoenix
mine doesnt have any requirements for voting lol
Really
delicate zephyr
because rn Midnight is the biggest time when it errors
earnest phoenix
Your bot is awesome lol
delicate zephyr
until I rewrite the fetcher
opal plank
yeah, it just gives a bit of currency, but you can get it with other means
quartz kindle
well, its still the same, there's no diff
delicate zephyr
thats gonna be the reason I use the 23rd hour
quartz kindle
its still a timestamp
earnest phoenix
yeah, it just gives a bit of currency, but you can get it with other means
me too
delicate zephyr
its not, because of how I sort the dates
quartz kindle
its just a matter of where is the timestamp converted to readable date
currently you're converting it on server side right?
delicate zephyr
The timestamp is useless after the hourly data is compiled into daily data
quartz kindle
how so?
delicate zephyr
since I sort them by dates on the server side
quartz kindle
isnt there a timestamp for when the data was compiled?
delicate zephyr
Not really
Since each bot is updates at different times when the fetcher actually pulls them
meaning the timestamps are offset by a few secs
quartz kindle
but you have the timestamp of when the data was obtained right?
delicate zephyr
Yes, but Tim
I think you're misunderstanding me
how do I explain this
Explaining shit do be hard
hold on
quartz kindle
lmao
i mean
what im imagining is that you have a table somewhere correlating timestamps and the data
delicate zephyr
Nope
quartz kindle
like at this time stamp this was the number of votes, and this was the number of guilds
quartz kindle
then what do you have lol
quartz kindle
so you dont use timestamps in the data?
delicate zephyr
Hold on
opal plank
then how do you sort them in the page?
surely you have timestamps relating to where each compiled data was produced
delicate zephyr
I hate trying to explain shit
opal plank
these timestamps
theres gaps in them, surely you have timestamps to know which you have and which you dont
delicate zephyr
nope
opal plank
im confused now
opal plank
hmmm
quartz kindle
lets see if i understand
you get data hourly
and when the day is over, you compile that into a "day" package, and delete the hourly data
then you put the "day" package into the db
delicate zephyr
I haven't done the math to get the most recent hour because its a pain in the ass to do, so I sort through the data to get the 23rd and if its not there it doesnt get entered
quartz kindle
something like that?
delicate zephyr
like all the other difference calculations are done on render
but the compilation of daily data is done on the backend due to the fact I handle the missing data
since I use a for loop to display 24 rows
if the date isnt there is shows a blank row
if it does is shows as shown
delicate zephyr
then you put the "day" package into the db
no
I don't store daily data in the database
quartz kindle
then what do you store?
delicate zephyr
Its the timestamp of when it was fetched
quartz kindle
alright so you do have timestamps
quartz kindle
how?
delicate zephyr
iirc last time I tried it, it made the data off by X hours of the timezone
since the daily data is compiled based on the servers timezone
quartz kindle
then thats all you need?
delicate zephyr
if a user is for example
12 hours behind UTC
the first row gets fucked
since its a day ahead
like it would just not show the date
or it would show a time that wasn't even accurate to the present
which is why I just showed UTC
I fucking hate dealing with timezones
quartz kindle
but like
you dont need to do anything to the tables
this is strictly display
not sorting or arranging
delicate zephyr
I would have to change how the backend works
since the backend sorts the data based on the day
not the timestamp
crimson vapor
should config.json go inside or outside of the src/ folder?
quartz kindle
you can simply take a day, and generate a timestamp for that day
and send it together with the request
and let the browser show its local date based on the timestamp
earnest phoenix
should config.json go inside or outside of the src/ folder?
Doesn’t really matter, although I put mine outside
crimson vapor
ok
delicate zephyr
It would still require me to fuck around with the backend
earnest phoenix
or i use .env file
delicate zephyr
and tbh I really dont wanna deal with timezones again
crimson vapor
fuck timezones
delicate zephyr
Theres a reason I gave up trying to fix the auctions timer
quartz kindle
its ugly af
delicate zephyr
Timezones can suck my dick
I'll just slap a "(i) Times are displayed in UTC" notice
so people dont get confused
theres a reason the auctions timer isnt fixed
it got broke when shit got moved and now I really cant be arsed dealing with the timezone crap
I should work on my bot again
crimson vapor
fun
quartz kindle
well thats the whole point about doing everything with timestamps, sending then to client side, and let the browser decide the timezone
so you never have to deal with them yourself
forcing everything to utc also works
delicate zephyr
so you never have to deal with them yourself
you see that'd be nice if shit didnt have set time start / ends and opening times
and yea, honestly I prefer just using UTC, it's a Coordinated Time for a reason
quartz kindle
are these times not universal?
delicate zephyr
they are
but I have to detect last monday from current monday and all that milarkey
for example https://dblstats.com/auctions/timer is broke
because the times got fucked
quartz kindle
set open times and close times to timestamps and let the browser tell them the date
quartz kindle
is it the same time every week?
delicate zephyr
I do pass the timestamp to the browser for that one ^^
quartz kindle
so every week the opening time is different than the week before?
quartz kindle
because if its the same time every week, like every money at 7am utc
you can modulus the timestamp
delicate zephyr
Its more the fact that it Starts on tuesday End on monday
earnest phoenix
n unit ago 
delicate zephyr
trying to detect when they're open and closed and all the other bullshit to made me give up with the timer
lmfao
I made it way too advanced to the point where its a mess
delicate zephyr
nah
its dead now anyway
since we cant get auctions data easily anymore
I mean we can, but the way we used to calculate the days and everything relating to auctions weeks and stuff is broke
since it got shifted by 24 hours
I'll prolly put the page under maintenance like the other lot
Tim
this is what we're doing atm https://img.pyrocdn.com/XPMAPGpr
blame marco for the ternary
lyric mountain
Ternaries are nice
delicate zephyr
@quartz kindle its the getting the next week when its monday that breaks
quartz kindle
if i had to do it, i would do it like this:
set base starting timestamp, ie previous monday 7am utc
set elapsed time to base - (base % 1 week)
set start time to now - elapsed
set end time to start time + duration
delicate zephyr
we're calculating 3 different times here
which is why we're having the issue
and then we're using those to detect whether or not the other should be open close / counting down etc
its a pain in the ass and convoluted as all hell
quartz kindle
everything can be done by modding the current timestamp by predefined amounts using a base timestamp as offset
something like an epoch calculation
delicate zephyr
thats not the issue we are having
thats the easy part
its more the
its fine from Tuesday to sunday
but
the moment
literally
the second it hits monday
everything goes to shit
because it then goes "Oh we need the NEXT week"
which is why that ternary is there
quartz kindle
thats where modding the current timestamp comes into play
delicate zephyr
even tho it broke too
quartz kindle
it will always be the current week
quartz kindle
wut
delicate zephyr
We need the Last week on the monday
since it needs to use the times from last week
until tuesday
like I said
convoluted as hell
quartz kindle
just needs more modding
delicate zephyr
yea
quartz kindle
but i mean
delicate zephyr
it's not somethign worth fixing rn anyway
quartz kindle
its not that hard, you use the current timestamp, and you mod it to fixed times, like day start, specific hour of the day, specific week before or after
like a time cursor
lyric mountain
Can't u just create a new date object and add days?
delicate zephyr
thats what we're doing, but
the moment
the next week starts
it shifts to the next week
Which isnt what we want
its just more effort and convoluted crap to do on top of something that would work fine if it was just using the standard week
I thought of a better solution though
quartz kindle
lmao
lyric mountain
Js is indeed weird
delicate zephyr
wait
nvm
shit solution
i cba to think about timestamps and crap
makes my head hurt more than maths
lyric mountain
You could try to analyze java's time package
Like, it works really well when dealing with dates
If you're stuck with logic or maths you could peek inside it
quartz kindle
i would just abuse modulus and be done with it
lyric mountain
Modulus operandi

bot.setMaxListeners(0);
fs.readdir('./events/', (err, files) => {
if (err) return console.error;
files.forEach(file => {
if (!file.endsWith('.js')) return;
const evt = require(`./events/${file}`);
let evtName = file.split('.')[0];
console.log(`Loaded event: ${evtName}`);
bot.on(evtName, evt.bind(null, bot));```
So I wrote this event handler right and now it's loading events multiple times.why are you setting the max event listeners to 0?
sudden geyser
You're probably calling your loader recursively.
For example, if you ran the loader in your run event and somehow re-emitted the run event.
sudden geyser
That warning is only for a lot of duplicate event listeners
You shouldn't silence it.
lyric mountain
listeners must always at all moments be created together with the bot client
to ensure you never re-create them
mellow kelp
you're adding too many listeners
sudden geyser
Too many of one listener™️
lyric mountain
humans are very inneficient
regal edge
Too many of one listener™️
Where would that listener be?
sudden geyser
return to monke
lyric mountain
because we have two listeners for the same kind of event
regal edge
._.
sudden geyser
Where would that listener be?
You see how it says: Loaded event: guildCreate/guildDelete. Because those events keep being added, you have 11 of the same listener (one of the two). Hence, that warning.
Anyway, you probably have some recursive loading going on, because just from that snippet of code, we can't tell much
sudden geyser
Takeaway is:
- Remove the
bot.setMaxListeners(0)line. The warning is to help you. - Try debugging and seeing where/when the loader is being called. Using your IDE/code editor's debugging tools will help since you can jump around.

Alrighty
lyric mountain
so, I just finished making my solo/duo-q ranked system, but...
do you guys have any idea on how I can avoid 4 for loops?
like, it must iterate over the lobby to find possible 4-player matches
like, it's not being slow nor giving me any issues, but that's just plain ugly
brisk gate
so you need to sample 4 distinct items from [0, size - 1] range, right?
you can try to generate 4 random numbers, check them, if they don't pass, add to cache so you don't select that pair again
also, is your tryMatching functions returns different results for tryMatching(0,1,2,3) and tryMatching(3,2,1,0) @lyric mountain
what i mean, does the order of a, b, c and d matter?
lyric mountain
tryMatching gets the players in positions a, b, c and d in this case
all values are distinct
that random idea, I like it
brisk gate
so the order matters
lyric mountain
not at all
brisk gate
in that case you have many duplicate cases in the loop
lyric mountain
it also takes mmr in consideration
so low-mmr players will get partnered with higher-mmr ones
brisk gate
and you have to sample distinct tuples of size 4
lyric mountain
in that case you have many duplicate cases in the loop
tryMatching is the one who deals with that
I think the random idea will work
brisk gate
just to make sure to uniformely sample all positions
lyric mountain
I have a getRandomN function that I made, it takes an array, an amount of values to return and how many copies of each element is allowed
so it'll always return me 4 distinct values
thx
brisk gate
cool
brisk gate
Just to note you, that you are not sampling unifromely if you just pick a random number each time
lookup reserviour sampling
dire obsidian
i mean, what is the best server for a node.js app?
lyric mountain
let's say it indeed became smaller
dire obsidian
sorry for the stupid question but i can't go incognito in this server
quartz kindle
lyric mountain
Just to note you, that you are not sampling unifromely if you just pick a random...
true, I'll put a seed there
mellow kelp
precious
lyric mountain
but is it ten thousand?
quartz kindle
perhaps
lyric mountain
@brisk gate
now it'll use the original array's hashcode as seed
all calls to rng will use the same generator
so now it'll be uniform
crimson vapor
so, I just finished making my solo/duo-q ranked system, but...
...
lyric mountain
don't ask me
lyric mountain
yeah, I know
this is one of my codes where I'll eventually look at it and say "wtf"
although it was a prototype earlier today
delicate zephyr
crimson vapor
great code
brisk gate
@lyric mountain that's not exactly what I said. Changing seed doesn't really solves the issue. You can use https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher–Yates_shuffle to shuffle first 4 number in the range from 0 to size-1 and if that tuple doesn't work, retry to generate.
lyric mountain
ah, that's no issue actually
the rng method is another method inside my Helper class
it already handles such stuff
actually, java has a ton of customization for vanilla Random class
not as much as c++ tho
c++ random is fckin overkill
brisk gate
ok, then. I'm not familiar with java libraries. I just know if you naivly sample integer and then resample it if it's duplicate that will break "uniformity"
lyric mountain
maybe I might implement that shuffle, doesn't seem a bad thing to have just for the sake of it
if I understood right, all I need to do is shuffle each time the element surpasses maxIntances, right?
brisk gate
No, just need to go over first maxInstances elements shuffle them with random index
sudden geyser
The extra space is killing me
lyric mountain
maxInstances is an integer actually
in the code above, if the element to be added cannot be added it'll shuffle the list and retry
lyric mountain
The extra space is killing me
that's actually the right syntax lul
the full generic definition would be <T extends Object>
but it can be reduced to <T>
we can also do this
brisk gate
static void shuffle(int[] array, int maxInstances) {
int n = array.length;
Random random = new Random();
for (int i = 0; i < maxInstances; i++) {
int randomValue = i + random.nextInt(n - i);
int randomElement = array[randomValue];
array[randomValue] = array[i];
array[i] = randomElement;
}
}
here is a random fisher yets but capped to maxInstances
I assume maxInstances is <= array.length
lyric mountain
Yep (well, not actually)
But that wouldn't work
Like
MaxInstances is the maximum amount of repeated values
brisk gate
ah, I misunderstand your function then
lyric mountain
Like, in my previous usage I'd get one instance of each player
No more than one instance per player must exist in the matchmaking
So MaxInstances is 1
brisk gate
oh, in that case this function will work
you generate 4 random numbers, where first one is from 0 to N, second one is from 1 to N - 1, etc
lyric mountain
Ig I could remove the element from the aux list to prevent further clashes
sudden geyser
we can also do this
Yeah I know what generics are, but the extra space feels weird. I'm so used to functions being declared like func fun<T>(fn: (T) -> T) {...} where the generics are after the name
lyric mountain
Oh
brisk gate
The extra space is killing me
worrying about code style is one thing you can delegate to tools and forget about it, saves many hours in debating in PRs and arguing about spaces
lyric mountain
Ngl, I spent about 3 hours adjusting delphi's formatting style
Vanilla formatter is plain awful
brisk gate
last time I heard delphi was 2005 in Russia
lyric mountain
Wish I never had to use it
Unfortunately delphi is hugely popular here in brazil
Seriously, any lang would do better than object pascal
sudden geyser
I spent like 2-3 hours on a giant ESLint configuration file
but now I don't bother using formatters
brisk gate
but now I don't bother using formatters
this is the way
sudden geyser
they're annoying, but if I run a public project, I probably will enforce it
so you don't have people writing luca code
sudden geyser
mine definitely was
I remember running it for the first time
600+ warnings & errors
sudden geyser
and used one provided by WebStorm and got around 1k+ warnings & errors
brisk gate
also, i started using go, which has formatter built-in with super opiniated formatting which is cool
lyric mountain
Tbh, I once fighted against my college assignment's partners
brisk gate
no one debates over spaces vs tabs
brisk gate
that often happens in start of your career
lyric mountain
Nor spaces
mellow kelp
how about we debate tabs and spaces
mellow kelp
oh dear god

You should see C/C++ developers fighting on what line to put the braces on
lyric mountain
It's already a C#/Java fight
lyric mountain
C# puts below, java in front
brisk gate
during frehsman year I saw so much awful code, there was one guy didn't know about existence of Enter and he was writing C++ in one line
sudden geyser
reason is "eh we like it this way"
brisk gate
yes, that's pretty much how Golang works
"you like spaces? we don't! we use tabs over here!"
lyric mountain
In this Christian server we don't believe in spaces
mellow kelp
i prefer tabs since anyone can adjust them however they want
but i can see why people also use spaces
brisk gate
but no one really cares, you just pass through the formatter before commit and than right, anyone can adjust the spacing in their editors
mellow kelp
i remember cloning a really big repo and accidentally ran prettier
shit took like a minute and ended up converting every space to tab
lyric mountain
Lul
Like, tabs have at most 2 uses
Why leave it with only 1?
Space is already a popular dude
mellow kelp
bad thing is they look really messed up on github
sudden geyser
eslint node_modules
lyric mountain
In github?
mellow kelp
yea
lyric mountain
Cool
mellow kelp
but no one got time for that anyways
lyric mountain
Imagine if they added a setting to in the profile to adjust that
Guess I'll open a suggestion there
brisk gate
probably someone made an extenssion for that

Does anyone use Discord slash commands? They have proper UI for them only in Web version.
mellow kelp
only in web version?
brisk gate
On mobile, it's barely working
mellow kelp
damn, discord
lyric mountain
Slash commands are...how can I call it? Niche?
brisk gate
like in Slack
mellow kelp
and they expect devs to fall in love with slash commands
lyric mountain
Like, EVERYONE already have a prefix system for their bot
brisk gate
i just started making a bot and used slash commands exclusevily
also I hate when some bots register /help command and it becomes their
lyric mountain
Slash commands are somewhat redundant
mellow kelp
i have a bad feeling about this
lyric mountain
And have that issue mike pointed out
lyric mountain
Does discord really expect servers to have only one bot?
brisk gate
They see all commands, with help. They have autosuggestion
mellow kelp
idk what they're thinking anymore
lyric mountain
They have better UX for user
Just wait bot prompts and menus
brisk gate
You can send replies in the channel which they can only see
brisk gate
Just wait bot prompts and menus
is that something they are wokring on?
lyric mountain
Yep
brisk gate
do you have gh issue link?
lyric mountain
It was announced the same time as slash commands
