ello, curious if anyone can help me here.
I have an old pc thats decently powerful that I can keep on 24/7, im curious how I could make it so i could run my own hosting panel off of it. Like I can access the files, console, etc from an external website, but the actual thing is hosted off my pc. So for example; hosting something like heroku locally, meaning I can modify and update the bot from everywhere but its actually hosted on my pc. Like a personal host with panel etc thats hosted locally
Ive tried coding my own but its far from efficient, so Ive given in and am rather looking for something already made

there are open source panels out there that you can use, but before that you need to setup host maybe wizh xamp or wamp, opne required ports on your network, do port forwardin and allow those ports in firewall, then you can host panel on xamp or wamp depends on you
i think petrodactyl is open source, so you can use it

hey guys, I would like to add a bot into my server - before developing totally new one, I want to ask if you know something similar or maybe some bot that is already doing what I need 😄
I want to create a bot which would add reaction emojis under my message - I want to create a specific text channel where only I can write and other people can only react with emojis
it should be a "Rank a player" kinda bot for football matches - I will write name of player "Ronaldo" and bot would add emojis from 0️⃣ to 🔟 (11 in summary) under the message
with at least 11 players in game up to possible 16, it will take huge amount of time adding those reactions... can anyone think about similar bot or maybe help me with creating new one?
thank you very much for your help!

How to make a bot 24/7 running free
earnest phoenix
Buy a vps
vivid fulcrum
Need to run your bot 24/7? Get a cheap VPS.
https://www.scaleway.com/ - Incredibly cheap but powerful VPSes, owned by https://online.net/, based in Europe.
https://www.hetzner.com/ - Germany-based VPSes, with prices starting from as low as €2.96
https://www.digitalocean.com/ - US-based cheap VPSes. The gold standard. Locations available world wide.
https://xenyth.net/ - A hosting solution made by Discord bot developers, aimed at a lower price range, starting from $2.49.
https://www.ovh.co.uk/ - Cheap VPSes, used by many people. France and Canadian locations available.
https://www.time4vps.eu/ - Cheap VPSes, seemingly based in Lithuania.
https://www.linode.com/ - More cheap VPSes!
https://www.vultr.com/ - US-based, DigitalOcean-like.
Self-hosting:
Any modern hardware should work 100% fine.
Free hosting:
No. There is no good free VPS hoster, outside of persuading somebody to host for you, which is incredibly unlikely.
vivid fulcrum
no, but you are
there is no full uptime free hosting
hosting has operation costs - electricity bills, internet bandwidth bills etc.
someone has to pay for that
ergo, there is no good free host

My friend doesn't have a vps but his bot is 24/7

great quality: not free
free: low quality
great quality & free: limited time
free & unlimited time: you're the product (either ads or data selling)
great quality & free & unlimited time: you're being scammed
nobody would give a good vps for free without any catches, they need to pay for the electricity bills

I'm attempting to get started with ReactJS even though I have no experience in the language. However, I already have a website finished (I can link what I have since it's mostly public), but it looks garbage. I found a similar website to what I have that uses Chakra-UI, but since I'm coding in pure HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, I'm not sure how I can transfer my code (if it's even possible) to Chakra/React. What is the best course of action? Should I learn React? How does Chakra-UI work in relation to web design/React?
https://www.npmjs.com/package/@chakra-ui/react
(It also might be worth noting that I'm using CommonJS, but I believe React doesn't require ES6 but I could be mistaken)

u can just use CRLF (\r\n) since the os will ignore the one that's unsupported

This was also unsuccessful. Screenshot is iOS
lyric mountain
send the text here```
like
this
so I can see the original text
in my bot I use just \n and never faced any issue regarding os
fossil bronze
\n works on windows and android
\r works on windows and iOS
\n\r works on iOS and android but results in double newline on windows
\r\n works on windows and android but not iOS just like \n
cinder patio
\n should always work in discord, no??
lyric mountain
pretty sure
fossil bronze
Sorry. It does not
lyric mountain
send the original text here
and the code snippet
or if the text is hardcoded, only the snippet
actually, send only the code
fossil bronze
I can't really because it's not just a block of text. It's added together by the bot. like
thistext = `❌ ${displayRarity} **${thisListCard.name}** \n\r`
displayTextLines.push(thistext)
//later
clonedTemplate.setDescription(data.join(""))
\n\r is invalid btw
fossil bronze
I'll make a test cmd if you want
fossil bronze
Okay but that's what works on iOS so..
earnest phoenix
\n works in Discord on all platforms equally, you don't need a carriage return at all
lyric mountain
`\n` works in Discord on all platforms equally, you don't need a carriage return...
that's what I said, but better check the code anyway
lyric mountain
I can't really because it's not just a block of text. It's added together by the...
join by \n
I'm ALMOST sure join trims linefeeds before joining
thistext = `❌ ${displayRarity} **${thisListCard.name}**`
displayTextLines.push(thistext)
//later
clonedTemplate.setDescription(data.join("\n"))
This results in double newlines in windows
With \r\n on the lines
Its correct on iOS my assistant says
lyric mountain
```js
thistext = `❌ ${displayRarity} **${thisListCard.name}**`
displayTextLines....
did you change the code exactly as I wrote here?
cinder patio
I'm ALMOST sure `join` trims linefeeds before joining
join doesn't do anything to the contents of the array
just joins each one of them with the delimiter
lyric mountain
weird then
but still, better put linefeed on the delimiter instead of the individual lines
cinder patio
This results in double newlines in windows
You most likely have two newlines, just show your code
fossil bronze
Hmm I think you're right, as in, \r\ n is supposed to work on all clients
lyric mountain
why do you insist in using \r\n if we clearly saw that it doesn't work as expected
fossil bronze
\r\n is what you suggested...?
lyric mountain
before you showed in what ur using it
you didn't say it was for a string, in js, for discord
you simply asked "how to break line and stay compatible with all OS"
replace your text with this ```js
thistext = ❌ ${displayRarity} **${thisListCard.name}**
and join like this ```js
clonedTemplate.setDescription(data.join("\n"))
Oh I see. I thought it was implied
Tried what you said, (Waiting for iOS user to come around)
Yeah right now idk. my old method of putting \n at the end of each string is working.
lyric mountain
by putting \n at the end of each line u also get an empty line at the end
.join("\n") will suffice for putting each line on a new line
fossil bronze
Aha looks like the error has been found
lyric mountain
which was...?
fossil bronze
Space before newline!
fossil bronze
Yep but it does.
thistext = `☑️ ${juyeonStar.repeat(3)} **${thisListCard.name}** \n`
// No newline on iOS only
thistext = `☑️ ${juyeonStar.repeat(3)} **${thisListCard.name}\n**`
// Newline on all platforms
My placement of it inside the bold was just me being sloppy
lyric mountain
oh well, you ignored all my warnings and kept a newline at the end of each item
anyway, I give up on trying to solve your issue
fossil bronze
oh well, you ignored all my warnings and kept a newline at the end of each item
Of course, because it did not affect the outcome. The problem is now solved: The issue was spaces before newline doesn't work on iOS. if you are in doubt, try this string:
'This is n \n This is n \n This is n \n This is r \rThis is r \rThis is r \r This is r-n \r\n This is r-n \r\n This is r-n \r\n This is r-n \r\n This is 3 spaces before n \n This is 3 spaces before n \n This is 3 spaces before n \n'
lyric mountain
Of course, because it did not affect the outcome. The problem is now solved: The...
this is what we often call a "hack job" (or "gambiarra" in brazil)
the issue "might" appear fixed, but it's just hidden under the mat
fossil bronze
It doesn't make any difference what I join by. The problem is spaces before newline.
As you can see from the string that is not joined by anything
lyric mountain
that's the apparent problem, but I'm certain the actual reason is another thing
\n is a line break regardless of what's behind or in front of it
split hazel
`\n` is a line break regardless of what's behind or in front of it
\\n
just ruined your career
fossil bronze
What is that? Escaped slash, so it's just a backslash n?
fossil bronze
btw I didnt ignore your idea, I tried it, it worked (because I removed spaces without thinking) then I tried the way I did it before again (just minus spaces) and it worked too
lyric mountain
with .join("\n")
Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
Item 4
with trailing \n
Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
Item 4
//empty line here
proven lantern
you might want to use trim() everywhere and not think about trailing \n
but join is better
solemn latch
kind of on topic, is this a bad idea? or does a better method exist?
var str = "I have an cat, an dog, and a goat.";
var mapObj = {
cat:"Apple",
dog:"Orange",
goat:"Cherry"
};
str = str.replace(/cat|dog|goat/gi, function(matched){
return mapObj[matched];
});
console.log(str) // I have an Apple, an Orange, and a Cherry.
source: https://tutorial.eyehunts.com/js/javascript-string-replace-multiple-example-code
its for replacing multiple strings in a string
(I may or may not be chaining .replace's dynamically in my code right now)
quartz kindle
kind of on topic, is this a bad idea? or does a better method exist?
```js
...
for more simplicity you can build a RegExp instance from the mapObj
for more performance you can use a loop with replace conditioned by an indexOf
solemn latch
looping replace's is more performant? 👀
quartz kindle
looping replace's is more performant? 👀
likely depends on string size and number of keys in mapObj
solemn latch
so I should really just do my own testing and figure it out then
quartz kindle
but having an indexOf condition will likely improve performance for strings that dont contain all keys to replace
solemn latch
perfect, thanks tim

How can I create a space large enough for the content to fill most of the screen? An example of this is https://anify.app/. The Explore button scrolls down to the content, but the main text fills most of the screen. I'm trying to use React, but I can't find anything related to this specific design. I figured that understanding the HTML/CSS might be easier since I'm new to React, but when inspecting the website I'm still quite stumped.

So I am making an API and people are allowed to add images, but right now to keep track of who adds images I am making a user entry which holds their IP, (mainly to keep track of the images they add via the browser) discord ID, bot ID, and api key. I am still wondering though if using their IP to keep track of images they add via the browser is a good idea. As right now i see no way of actually adding their IP to the database if they are a first time user.

I'm trying to use React Router DOM, but for some reason the page doesn't render anything. When I don't use routing, the page renders everything completely fine. However, when I literally just add BrowserRouter or anything after that, nothing works at all.
This works fine:
https://sourceb.in/qhBqAOLK53
But this unfortunately doesn't:
https://sourceb.in/ygPpVeOFed
I've tried a few variations of the latter, only using BrowserRouter, or moving things to different files, etc. Nothing seems to be working for me. All I get is a blank screen.
sharp geyser
1 you need <Routes></Routes> to wrap your Route in
2 Why are you using a div
Also unless you are using an older version of react router dom component is no longer a thing it is element
Also if this is an older version of react router then it is Switch or whatever instead of Routes
simple stump
1 you need ``<Routes></Routes>`` to wrap your `Route` in
- Ty, but that didn't seem to work unfortunately.
- I tried a lot of different variations lol. Many different tutorials and the latest one I used just happened to include
<div>.
And regarding using an older version I'm not. Again related to the tutorial thing
This is what I'm using now:
root.render(
<BrowserRouter>
<Routes>
<Route path="/" component={App}>
<Route path="/home" component={Home}/>
</Route>
</Routes>
</BrowserRouter>
);
What version of react rotuer or react router dom are you using
<Router>
<BasePage/>
<Routes>
<Route element={<Home/>} path={"/"}/>
<Route element={<About/>} path={"/about"}/>
<Route element={ <Submit /> } path={"/submit"}/>
</Routes>
</Router>
Works fine for me
Also might have something to do with you not treating them as "compoents" you likely have to do <App />
simple stump
What version of react rotuer or react router dom are you using
6.3.0
simple stump
aight ill try that
simple stump
Try doing ``<App />`` and ``<Home />``
wait sorry so smth like:
<BrowserRouter>
<Router>
<App />
<Routes>
<Route element={<Home/>} path={"/"}/>
</Routes>
</Router>
</BrowserRouter>
Also tried just:
<BrowserRouter>
<Router>
<App />

And separate swing render thread from the logic thread

Unless you enjoy interface freezes

Actually, a minesweeper would be quite easy for a starter project
Just a loop with xy counts and rng for bombs

You can make a way to display it in console first, then port it over to swing

Most of the work will be figuring out how to generate the grid and making the clues system work

dry imp
ill invite your bot if you allow it
dry imp
There's a /s right? Right?
yes s for serious
lyric mountain
Also what do you guys mean by logic and ui thread?
When u run a java program it's mono thread by default, you need to assign the threads yourself
wheat mesa
Also what do you guys mean by logic and ui thread?
The UI is rendered on a different thread than your logical processing so your UI stays responsive during events that take time to process
It’s very simple to do
Have your UI class implement Runnable, and then in your main function do SwingUtils.runLater(new UIClassNameHere()) (the function is something like that, kuuhaku can correct me)
invokeLater()
I think is the name
lyric mountain
var exec = Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor();
exec.execute(new UIClassHere());
With executors u get better control over settings
U can also do the inverse - run ui in the main thread and use async methods to process logic
That has the advantage of leveraging java's ability to use actual threads

Should I just put all my like JFrames and Buttons in my run method on the main UI Class?
lyric mountain
Well, up to you
Swing is "create once, update always" instead of react/flutter's "recreate always"
As a bonus, if ur using intellij, it has native support for ui builder
Just right click -> new file -> swing forms
Or something like that
It'll be at the bottom of tge context menu
It takes a bit of tutorial to get used to it, but it's quite handy to make interfaces
sharp geyser
Interesting
sharp geyser
Mmm how do I add that stuff to my frame tho
lyric mountain
What stuff?

Like the components or whatever
lyric mountain
In the gui designer the components will be at the right-side menu

I am now starting to wonder what the hell should I use for the minesweeper area
sharp geyser
Mmm, but wouldn't I need something to put the numbers and mines on
lyric mountain
Jbutton
lyric mountain
Pretty much lmao
lyric mountain
Use a for-loop so you don't need to write every single button individually
sharp geyser
Yea
I might try and include game settings later if I actually get a basic minesweeper going
which I will likely save the settings in a json file
lyric mountain
Go for it
While you're at that, you might need to learn how to use json in java
Since it doesn't natively support it
sharp geyser
Right I remember that being the case
😔
I am honestly not sure how ima do this but lets give it a shot
lyric mountain
Theres org.json but...well
It's not a good lib to get used to
It was created as a proof-of-concept, but people started using it in production which led to huge memory issues
lyric mountain
Wtf is this gui thing it ain't letting me resize components
The gui designer is a bit wonky, watch some videos on how to work with it
sharp geyser
I am but what he is doing I seem to not be able to do
wheat mesa
Theres org.json but...well
json-simple is good in my experience
Is that the same thing
lyric mountain
Idk, just see if the lib group is org.json
wheat mesa
Not at pc rn I’ll check docs tho
Nope it’s not
made by something called cliftonlabs
lyric mountain
The one i mentioned isn't optimized for large scale usage since it loads the entire json at once
I used to have big issues with it on my bot's api due to payload sizes and frequency
Gotta go now, see ya tomorrow

yeah so far after looking at prices imma probs just make a system to auto switch between 2 heroku hosts, one for 15 days at a time or smt idk
pine nova
yea heroku had idk like data leak something with github
so prolly removed
some kind of security issue
forest drift
yeah, you can still connect them if u set it up right so u just have to
git pull --force
git push heroku --force
and then just make it detect when the githubs updated and itd auto host from github ig... Then just add a thingy that crashes the bot on one of the 2 heroku hosts for 15 days then switches sides heroku accounts, so each is only hosting an active bot for 15 days or so?
then if ur using internal database just have it push that to github every few min and when the bot restarts pull it from github so u dont have to worry about heroku resetting or smt?
pine nova
u cant use an internal database with heroku tho

Next button is a bit small maybe?
The coloring seems like it is a "warning", so made me look for another button to click, like a green one
Maybe try centering the button in the card, make it a bit wider to give the text more space to breath
The reason I would like it centered is that it makes more sense if the next step is the accordion below
Where the next button is now, it looks like it will take me to a new page
Also have the "configuration" have a mot more margin around it, and capitalize the "C"
It looks so crammed up into the navbar
Finally, maybe move the "need help" to the top, maybe even next to the "Configuration" header
Just my opinion tho 😄
earnest phoenix
Next button is a bit small maybe?
how much bigger?
The coloring seems like it is a "warning", so made me look for another button to click, like a green one
it's an accent colour (see the pic i sent)

not entirely sure about that ngl
Where the next button is now, it looks like it will take me to a new page
fun fact, it was going to be like that until the logic behind it reached 1720 lines, oops...
Also have the "configuration" have a mot more margin around it
i don't think it's even in line with the front page but i'll check
update: it isn't!
and capitalize the "C"
It looks so crammed up into the navbar
consistency 👍
Finally, maybe move the "need help" to the top, maybe even next to the "Configuration" header
ngl was thinking of adding a link to every section in the config, then it would link to the relevant section on the wiki page

Sorry for the ping. Just thought you might want to know what happened, but I got it to work. The solution was to clone directly from the repository, but for some reason because everything was encased in the my-app folder, extracting everything and deleting the node_modules fixed the issue. I just reinstalled all the necessary packages (react, react-router-dom, and @chakra-ui/react) and it works fine now haha. Anyways, tysm for your help. I don't think I could've fixed everything without understanding that the issue was related to the packages

does anyone have the ```js
process.on('unhandledRejection', error => {

something like thisk
ancient nova
but dont use that, its a bad idea
how is it a bad idea? that's how you make error handlers
quartz kindle
how is it a bad idea? that's how you make error handlers
that event is a safety net to catch errors that should have been caught by your code in the first place, its basically a way to warn you that "hey, your code is not catching this error, fix it pls"
its not meant to replace actual error catching
and will usually give you really bad errors that will be very unhelpful at actually fixing the issue

quartz kindle

thats literally what catches are for
but you can always structure them in a better way
ancient nova
like?
try {
member.ban().then((member) => {
return message.channel.send(`:wave: ${member.user.tag} (${member.user.id}) was forcefully removed from the server by ${message.author.tag}`);
});
} catch (e) {
return message.channel.send('I was not able to ban that specific person.');
}
``` how would you avoid getting the error if the member isn't bannable?have a go at this ^
solemn latch
you should be checking before the error anyway
ancient nova
that try catch doesnt even work
it does
ancient nova
I've gotten the error message before
quartz kindle
const result = await member.ban().catch(() => null);
if(!result) {
return message.channel.send('I was not able to ban that specific person.');
}
return message.channel.send(`:wave: ${member.user.tag} (${member.user.id}) was forcefully removed from the server by ${message.author.tag}`);
or
ember zephyr
so, I'm adding the set-language feature on my bot, so I've to translate it in some languages, and for example:
return message.reply({
content: `${message.author.username}, hello!`
});
will maybe become something like:
import langs from "some-path"
import getLang from "some-path"
const lang = await getLang("ID");
const text = langs[lang].<CommandName>.<TextIdentifier>; // e.g. "AUTHOR_USERNAME$, hello!"
const replyTxt = text.replace(/$AUTHOR_USERNAME$/g, message.author.username)
return message.reply({
content: replyTxt
)
Or should I do something like:
- langs-file:
export default function (
message_author_username?: string
// ...
) {
this.<LangCode> = {
<CommandName>: {
<TextIdentifier>: `${message_author_username}, hello!`
// Other texts...
}
// Other commands...
}
// Other languages...
}
- command-file:
import langs from "some-path"
import getLang from "some-path"
const lang = await getLang("ID");
const replyTxt = langs(
message_author_username: message.author.username,
// Other used parameters...
)[lang].<CommandName>.<TextIdentifier>;
return message.reply({
content: replyTxt
)
try {
await member.ban();
return message.channel.send(`:wave: ${member.user.tag} (${member.user.id}) was forcefully removed from the server by ${message.author.tag}`);
} catch {
return message.channel.send('I was not able to ban that specific person.');
}

😐
how about this? Voltrex came up with it
try {
if (mentionedRoleRegex.test(fetchedRole)) {
// Fetch either by mention or ID.
// If fetched by mention let's still replace it to get a clean ID.
roleToMute = message.guild.roles.cache.get(fetchedRole.replace(/<@&(\d+)>/, "$1"));
} else if ((roleToID = fetchedRole.match(mentionedRoleRegex)) !== null) {
// Fetch by ID.
roleToMute = message.guild.roles.cache.get(roleToID[1]);
} else {
// If regex failed try fetching by name instead.
roleToMute = message.guild.roles.cache.find(_role => _role.name === fetchedRole);
}
} catch (e) {
// In case both fetches failed, throw an error.
console.log(e);
return message.channel.send(`Could not find your role. Make sure the correct corresponding role is selected in your guilds settings. Please run \`${settings.prefix}set edit mutedRole \"@ROLE\"\``);
}
it's slightly harder
quartz kindle
you literally dont need a try catch there?
ancient nova
you literally dont need a try catch there?

the end user doesn't need to know which error occured, why would he need that information?
quartz kindle
the end user doesnt need this information?
ancient nova
the end user doesnt need this information?
it does need this, but not the exact error message I mean
quartz kindle
thats what i said basically
ancient nova
yeah, and the logging the exact errors is up to the developers
unless you're executing a command like eval
boreal iron
Yes it does, it’s not important for you to know if fetching an owner for example failed,
Those are promises which are supposed to fail sometimes
But the user needs a proper message your command handler can’t specify
ancient nova
or something else that needs the exact output
ancient nova
Yes it does, it’s not important for you to know if fetching an owner for example...
in my handler I got a switch case statement with most error messages and it outputs the appropriate response
boreal iron
That’s a debug message for u not the user
Catching the promise of a member ban results in a message to the user, hey I can’t ban the member
Since this promise is supposed to fail due missing permissions the command handler will return a proper error log for you but your job is to catch the promise and return a proper message to the user why the ban didn’t work
ancient nova
Catching the promise of a member ban results in a message to the user, hey I can...
that's what the statement is for
boreal iron
There’s none in the code you shared regarding the ban
ancient nova
There’s none in the code you shared regarding the ban
here's some
rest is in the command handler
boreal iron
try/catch on sending this message is nonsense again
That’s what your command handler should do
Or do you try to send another message to the channel if the DM failed?
ancient nova

boreal iron
Well nonsense then since your command would catch that
quartz kindle
you can also do a very simple custom error message system
lyric mountain
global try-catch inside event handler + print to channel?
boreal iron
I know that you're right it's just an easier way to do it
It’s not, if the command handler logs the error already if member.send() fails why would you wrap in into an extra try/catch to do the exact same as the command handler?
It’s a nested try/catch doing the same as the outermost one
ancient nova
It’s not, if the command handler logs the error already if member.send() fails w...
for logging 😭
like a log that tells the person who tried banning that the message failed to send
boreal iron
The command handler should log this error already?!
boreal iron
Why else would you catch it there?
ancient nova
it's for the guild not me
quartz kindle
module.exports = class UserError extends Error;
try {
await command.run(...)
} catch(e) {
if(e instance of UserError) {
message.channel.send(e.message).catch(() => {});
} else {
message.channel.send("An error occured, please try again shortly").catch(() => {});
console.log(e);
}
}
// any command
run: function(...) {
const check = await doSomething().catch(e => null);
// throw error with custom message
if(!check) { throw new UserError("message"); }
// any other error anywhere will be logged by the handler
}
that's how I did it
but without having a class
that's a bit unnecessary
boreal iron
Well that’s how you extend the error class

You could make a library in C just as “advanced” as any js library
ancient nova
You could make a library in C just as “advanced” as any js library
I don't see many people writing bots in C so I doubt that will happen anytime soon
wheat mesa
Better is a subjective term, easier to use yes, and better covered endpoints is simply not true
ancient nova
how is that not true?
wheat mesa
Because there is a limited amount of endpoints. Any complete C library would “cover” just as many endpoints as a js library would
boreal iron
I feel like he means feature rich
ancient nova
by better covered I mean simpler, the containers for methods are simpler
lyric mountain
if you have 65k+ endpoints you really need to rethink your design choices

lyric mountain

no
wheat mesa
I thought pretty much anything that compiles in C would compile in C++
cinder patio
no there are definitely differences. Some code yes but definitely not all
wheat mesa
Interesting
lyric mountain
You can say that C++ is superset of C. It will be most of the time correct.
However correct answer is C and C++ are two different languages.
Consider this code:
char *s = malloc(100);
This is correct C code, but in C++ this code is invalid. This is because malloc() return "void *". In C you can cast void * to any other pointer type. In C++ you can not. You should cast:
char *s = (char *) malloc(100);
so...a semiset?
actually, it's something like donkeys vs horses
both are the same but not exactly

i would say it is
pretty much all c code works with c++
there are differences but porting isn't that difficult
for example you cant really implicitly convert a number to a pointer in c++
(shame :()
about the assembly that comes out of both im not sure if the output is relatively the same but i think i saw an article that says c produces less bloated binary files
probably since the standard library for c is practically non existent
while c++ bundles the whole standard library which is.. pretty large

i think thats just referring to the compilation process
split hazel
but from benchmarks it seems they're relatively similar
they each slightly beat each other in different aspects
wheat mesa
Except for nbody lol
quartz kindle
wanna see your compiler burn? make nested templates
split hazel
bro i get like no intellisense whenever i write a template
wheat mesa
Templates are amazing but they also suck
split hazel
i get some intellisense with clangd but with the c/c++ one provided by vsc you get none
apparently its intentional
quartz kindle
i once tried to make a c++ Map for js where you could specify the c++ data type from js
wheat mesa
I use CLion for most projects
quartz kindle
like new Map("string", "uint32")
wheat mesa
The auto fill is great
quartz kindle
and the cpp would create that using templates
split hazel
like new Map("string", "uint32")
of course
quartz kindle
turns out that generated hundreds of thousands of type combinations
split hazel
oh yeah true because the compiler only generates templates for all the possible value combinations
wheat mesa
Lol
split hazel
dont have to use templates tho
for my db all my types are hard coded
i gave up with templates
quartz kindle
yeah but like
split hazel
they're the best and worse thing in c++
quartz kindle
if you want both the key and the value to be customizable
their types i mean
you're not gonna hardcode that
wheat mesa
I mean, all the types in js can be represented with string technically, no?
quartz kindle
yes the standard way is to convert js data to buffers before giving them to cpp
wheat mesa
So you could just have it in C++ represent key with string, and value as whatever type
But in the js end cast all the keys to string before feeding it to the C++ end
(I don’t know how bindings work though, I’m probably thinking about it wrong)
quartz kindle
yeah thats pretty much it, just using buffer instead of string
since raw string doesnt really exist in cpp
wheat mesa
At that point you would only need one template for the value type though right?
quartz kindle
yeah, which basically means no templates, just code it once
split hazel
since raw string doesnt really exist in cpp
is char* a joke to you
quartz kindle
is char* a joke to you
which is basically a buffer
split hazel
fancy way to say array of characters 😠
quartz kindle
array of bytes
quartz kindle
sure
split hazel
sounds more intuitive than the c++ way
quartz kindle
there is a node api for rust
wheat mesa
Rust has bindings
split hazel
splendid

Really fast too

do u need a option if im doing a subcommand?
wheat mesa
I need to learn rust
split hazel
i'll make what you wanted to make
split hazel
I need to learn rust
yeah rust is cool
wheat mesa
Rust is fucking amazing and looks so cool but I just haven’t had the time to learn it
split hazel
it can do very low level stuff but i find it trash and annoying for very low level stuff
wheat mesa
I was actually gonna start again today but the power has been out all day from a storm last night
Certified Texas moment
Unsafe rust is a clusterfuck from what I heard
split hazel
like in c++ you can easily do pointer arithmetic, write and read random memory locations - in rust you have to jump a few hoops before you can do that
rocky dagger
do u need a option if im doing a `subcommand`?
?
split hazel
i hate how if statements dont have brackets
wheat mesa
But it looks like an amazing language with so much potential
split hazel
it triggers me
wheat mesa
Yeah same
The lack of parenthesis is something I can get used to for those though
Small sacrifice for an amazing language
split hazel
just dont write unsafe code and you should be fine with rust
wheat mesa
Yeah
wheat mesa
Speedy do you have any resources you recommend for learning rust
Or just trial and error like how I learn most langs
rocky dagger
Text input command options are optional
i just get an error saying DiscordAPIError: Invalid Form Body 45.options[0].type: This field is required 45.options[1].type: This field is required 45.options[2].type: This field is required 45.options[3].type: This field is required
split hazel
Or just trial and error like how I learn most langs
that how im doing it
i also ask for help with topics im stuck on in the rust server
they're surprisingly patient
boreal iron
Well if you define an options array then set the proper type for the options
split hazel
i wouldnt code a database or os with rust though 💀

I feel like it’s a language that would be good for gamedev when the ecosystem expands a little more
wheat mesa
Ehhh
split hazel
could
wheat mesa
I feel it’s still too low level to replace C# entirely
split hazel
actually thats a perfect match
you arent going to be doing extremely low level stuff with game dev anyways
wheat mesa
Especially since Unity basically relies on OOP itself
Rust wouldn’t have the same capability as C# in that aspect, but it would definitely be cool to see an engine that utilizes it to its full potential
split hazel
hate how unity is single threaded tho
you can only access and make use of the apis from the parent thread
cant lie i dont like the node api with rust integration
looks confusing
might just be the tutorial tho
wheat mesa
I need to learn rust enums
They look so cool but I just don’t understand them
Or when to use them
split hazel
not sure how i feel about this
i'll try setup a starter project
now that i look at it it doesnt look too bad
split hazel
i think neon is just one integration module

I'll be honest, I don't like rust, but I like even less c++ so the lesser evil wins
it's at least readable
although I have yet to see how you deal with windows api in rust
because THAT'S the real boss of the level
split hazel
spending 20 minutes figuring out how to make a static variable safe in rust
apparently you need a mutex of some kind to do so but it aint working 💀
wheat mesa
Winapi is a horrendous clusterfuck of terribly thought out design that goes completely against any conventions previously taught about C++ I stg
split hazel
windows api is very poorly designed

use a locale file + placeholders
a_string=Something
other_string=Another thing
you_get_it=See?
then you make as many files as u need, one for each lang
all files should have the exact same keys (the value before = )
the rest is just getting the string by key from the right file

i have a blank dictionary. next i make an https request, and then add some of the response into the dictionary. after that, i make two more https requests using a library and add the response to the dictionary. after i do all of this (asynchronously) i check all of the values in the dictionary to make sure i got all of the values. the issue is that the responses havent all come back yet and the code isn't yeilding. what can i do to fix it?

basically if the function header has &self or &mut self, it's a method and you can call it with .
otherwise you need to use ::
for example AtomicU32 defines
pub const fn new(v: u32) -> AtomicU32
and
pub fn get_mut(&mut self) -> &mut u32
