Slight Christmas Outage in c/meta@programming.dev
[–] [S] 21 points 10 months ago*

Also going to be adding some ssh keys to my steam deck and phone so if this happens again I can at least connect remotely that way next time. Usually do it with password auth on my personal servers so forgot to copy the key for this server

    Important notes for the stats

    • 2024 had alts allowed which inflated the account numbers while 2025 doesnt allow them edit: nevermind was a 2023 thing
    • the time interval 2024 was in was double the size of 2025 (but site was down a bit within that but still has more than 3 days of uptime vs 2025s 2 days)

    🌲 - 2024 DAY 1 SOLUTIONS -🌲 (programming.dev)
     

    Day 1: Historian Hysteria

    Megathread guidelines

    • Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever)
    • You can send code in code blocks by using three backticks, the code, and then three backticks or use something such as https://blocks.programming.dev/ if you prefer sending it through a URL

    Event Info + Post Guidelines + Code Formatting (programming.dev)
     

    Advent of Code is an annual Advent calendar of small programming puzzles that can be solved in any programming language you like.

    Puzzles have a backstory and then a collection of different inputs with people getting a random input and needing to submit the corresponding output for the puzzle and their input to successfully complete it.

    Puzzles start easy and get harder as the days go on. Every day has two different puzzles in increase in difficulty with you getting access to the second puzzle after solving the first.

    Puzzles are released every day at midnight ET and can be completed anytime after they are released (but people who solve them quicker after they're been released get more points for the site leaderboard).

    https://adventofcode.com/

    What can I post here?

    Anything relating to the event! Whether that be a meme, asking for help, sharing solutions, etc.

    Every day a megathread will be posted that solutions to that day should go into. In the megathread you can post code using code blocks or by linking to repositories or pastebins.

    To make a code block make three backticks, make a new line and put the code on lines, then put a newline and do three backticks on that

    e.g.

    ```
    console.log('Hello World')
    ```

    becomes

    console.log('Hello World')

    If you want a spot to post code externally (e.g. if it is too large or you want to have a spot to store it) we have a forgejo instance and an opengist instance

    you can find them at https://git.programming.dev/ and https://blocks.programming.dev/

    How should I format my post titles?

    Try to keep titles in this general format:

    [help, etc. category if applicable] [YEAR Day # (Part X)] [programming language if applicable] Post Title

    For example:

    [2023 Day #5 (Part 3)] [Rust] My attempt at a solution

    Another example:

    [Help] [2023 Day #2] What does this sentence mean

    This helps people avoid spoilers and lets people use it as an archive by searching if they find out about the event in the middle and are starting from the beginning

    Daily Godot Tip #11: Using prints adds a space separator between things added to the print function while printt adds a tab separator (programming.dev)
     

    This makes it easier to print out multiple things at the same time without needing to do a bunch of string concatenation

    Easy way you can remember it is thinking s for space and t for tab. When you want to print normally just call print. Otherwise add s for space or t for tab on the end of the function for the separators.

    Daily Godot Tip #10: Godot has a setting in the editor settings called Code Complete Delay that changes how long it takes for auto-complete suggestions to appear (programming.dev)
     

    Changing this to the lowest value (0.01) makes suggestions always appear instantly for really quick coding

    I'm continuing my tip series with some more tips (ended up stopping it before since I got busy with some projects). Will have a goal of having tips at least until the new year

    Notice: Hidden Communities are currently Bugged in Lemmy (programming.dev)
     

    We recently did an update to 0.19.5

    Along with this came a bug that makes hidden communities not function properly so that they will still appear in the all feed

    I have reported this on the lemmy repo and once the devs fix that bug our all feeds should go back to normal (but for now content such as politics and bot communities may appear for a bit)

    Heres the bug report if anyones interested in that https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5074

    Floodworks - Manage a city as it is being flooded (team-auboreal.itch.io)
     

    Hey everyone! Recently made yet another jam game with this one being made for the 12th brackeys jam

    Theme of the jam was Calm before the Storm so instantly thought of a system similar to Frostpunk where you have a city and then conditions end up getting worse as time goes on. This was then adapted to be a city that is getting more flooded over time after brainstorming with my jam team.

    If youve got any feedback feel free to throw it below or on the game page. I should be eventually pushing out a post jam update based on the feedback gotten

    programming.dev is going to go down for partial upgrade of pictrs service. Downtime for initial site should be short, but length of time for pictrs upgrade is unknown. Downtime will begin at 04:45 UTC (mastodon.social)

    edit: Site is back up, pictrs is still upgrading so uploads may fail or be slow until the upgrade is done.

    (all the alt frontends are also currently down so that pictrs can be upgraded faster)

    Edit 2: seems to be done
