We used to do this more often - but to kind of bring it back - what is everyone working on this weekend?

I’m working on some new API endpoints for the awesome new devRant web version that @trogus made that we’re releasing soon.

Share your weekend project!

Sleep 😴

I'm working on going to the Panthers game this Sunday. 👌👌

Lastly, booze and chill with my buddies at night.

I'm going to build a portfolio page that looks like windows 98

My car, gotta replace a bulb on the speedometer.

https://translationiteration.com (first website!) and my latest collab!

@calmyourtities nice 👍👍👍

Trying to find a vulnerability to an encrypted hard drive...

OT - Can’t wait to peak the new web version and API!

@thevariableman oh yeah, the current index looks gross. check out https://translationiteration.com//...

I'm currently working on that one
😅

@Torbuntu which Android ide are you using ?

Though Sunday is not weekend where I live, but I spent this weekend (yesterday) changing a database schema, because the client wants a new feature, which he insists that is not new and I had to foreseen it. At first, I thought it wouldn't be a big deal, and after a little nagging, I told him it would be ready by the next week, which is today. Just to find out that SQLite doesn't support altering a table for new foreign key constraints. So now, I have to dump his nasty data, recreate a table, and insert the data back.
Totally shit work. Maybe it needs its own rant when it's done.

@beleg I was wondering where you live where the weekend was different. I looked up doriath out of confusion😅

@calmyourtities u have my native language(Kannada) here however it is recognized as Japanese

Tech related: An AI using Python, a social media platform, and my author website.

Non tech related: Editing and revsing my manuscript. Not fun at all, but it needs to be done.

-Life
-stuff for finding a better job
-some work... TBD
-Downtown NYC Sunday for these

@thevariableman oh yeah😅, you know when you have bugs in your code but you'd rather just add more features, this is a great example of that.

there's two arrays in the js with one containing the iso codes and one containing the language name (ex if codes[0] == 'en' than names[0] == 'English') so there's that…

the names array has about 5 names missing so //TODO

@calmyourtities Why don't you use a dictionary?

@dfox so is this going to become a feature like a status bar, Your Day sorta thing?

Sleep, and working on a website that I have no clue how to build haha

Building a cake website. Possibly. If I don't get distracted.

Just had to add this... Maybe I should add watching Pinky and the Brain to my weekend plans...

Working on an e-commerce demo site; Using Vue, Express, and looking to try out Cassandra or Postgres for the DB, though that's later doen the line. I'll be at my grandmother's with just 4G (...ish) data and my laptop; no siblings or distractions to bother me throughout the day

Studying for exams (t-t)

@squirvel good luck

Finals from Tuesday. So studying, I guess

@Voltage825 Thanks, I'm going to need it for numerical analysis

Studying for the finals, then after this, working in devBanner!

1. Trying to build a website with hardly any prior webdev knowledge
2. Watching 8.02 by Walter Lewin
3. Mr Robot if e09 is out
4. Going out with mates maybe?

1. Make some awesome and delicious Christmas sweets with my family
2. Plan new years with my best friend and his girlfriend
3. Sleep
4. Date with a girl I've been seeing for the past month 😊
5. Write on my final exam project (no code, just a long ass report about code)

Being ill because life™

Try to move forward with my rudimentary trading script. Or maybe improve my automation scripts for my VMs.

I really should be studying...

Working on a client project and also a side project which is a note keeper but commands based with a terminal window and the idea of storing every information about the todos encrypted in the db .
Kinda want to venture alot this weekend.

A photowall for an event, my open source POS system which just got a huge refactor

@epse you have an open source POS system?
Mind mentioning the link to it?

Dark theme for the security/privacy blog, other fixes for that one, setting up a mail server, setting up some stuff for a domain which highly looks like my username 😉, celebrating saint Nicholas with my family (Dutch tradition).

Also going to try to setup a public gitlab for the blog AND some public to-do list thingy :)

Playing Minecraft with my friend (been ignoring them for school and code lately so I wanted to do something with them🙂)

@trogus can we maybe get a sneakpeek?

It's a secret...for now

Let me know those endpoints though and i will add them to my library once they become available.

@Dacexi I asked him for weeks, but he ignored me everytime.

@AlexDeLarge oh snap

My current side-project is a Leasing calculator app for Austria:
https://www.leasingrechnen.at

Just fixed a bug in the Android App, working on the iOS/OSX/Windows apps as well as on designing a speech interface to get 'chatbots' ready for Alexa, Assistant, Facebook Messenger and Twitter.

Working on the media player with DB integration in PHP.
:)
https://devrant.com/rants/1058981/...

Date with my GF. And then play GTA V. And maybe some Python API code. Good weekend.

Learning for my theoretical informatics exam next week a d go to a concert.

Btw. @dfox any plans to offer oauth in the future? It would be awesome to use it for other dev related project, "sign up with devRant" and if there's also a way to access the given points, one would have a "trusted" dev account immediately :P

Installing openSUSE can't wait to try it out

celebrate "sinterklaas" with my family. might also try to make a simple solar system (sun, earth, moon) as practice for the game engine im working in for school.

@Wack I have thought about that too but don't think it would be used enough to justify the pain it entails to setup.

@calmyourtities You missed out of the name 'transliteration'

Tryna hack together a firefox extension

@AlexDeLarge I was just curious and it wasn't required, but anyways, np mate

Sharpen my R programming skills

...play soccer

...attend a wedding

...and Meet up with oldmates!😊

Playing 🅱️Minecraft

Nah I'mma be messing around with ncurses and Lua like usual.

Writing some SQL queries for a stupid school assignment...

I'm designing and building my personal webpage. I'm using React and I'm making it fully server-side rendered, without any js in the client-side for now.

Working on a web-based bulletstorn game

@shellbug what are you using?

@lokiiarora you mean for the server? I'm using Express, and I'm using react-dom/server to render.

Project for a automated email after event registration from PayPal for a non profit and devRanting of course.

I'm going to finish my swear jar web app, but instead for swearing it's for bad puns.

Sort of a running joke with some friends.

I'm building a wrapper for an api in kotlin that will eventually be a library I use in the Android app I'm working on.

Stuff, repairing some electronics and working on a game project for uni.

Tomorrow will be a tough day, building modell plain wings with carbon fiber.

Nursing a hangover...

Trying to contribute a feature I want to my favourite game

Resolving some nasty merge conflict for school and then installing nextcloud on my old Netbook turned Server.

Learning x86-64 assembly

Making a mini GIS for a class

Working on my website.

Messing around with encryption

I've created My portfolio site, my current portfolio is only 2 finished projects, but I'm only 17, so I still have loads of time to make it bigger, before I finish University and hopefully land a job :)

I am learning Assembly x86

Trying out UI design. Need to make a site look better. For those that do this for a living. **hats off**

and hell yeah. A new version!

Reading clean code and making my personal finance manager. The ones I found there are too simple to me.

@shellbug Umm.. I thought you'd be trying next.
Tell me how it goes?

@lokiiarora github.com/Epse/EpPos
Mind its under development but by now probably stable enough to be used. Wouldn't recommend it for anything over 2 people or something

@romangraef hmm?

Portable photobooth using pine64 for a friend's upcoming marriage in Feb. Must be able to:
* Upload to a nextcloud server I put up for the event
* Send straight to printer
* Use green screen and be able to select background image

The last one is proving very difficult 😧😧

@calmyourtities awesome site. Starting phrase: “This is nice.”
Ending phrase: “No.”

Also, @Rekonnect would love this!

@Gerrymandered Negatory.

@Gerrymandered thanks☺️, it's starting to get so popular I'll have to stop testing in prod😅

Working on a site for our school's coffee shop.

Working on my mobile app, a social network for people with modified cars (will need testers!)

Written in Angular 4, Apache Cordova and Laravel

I'm building a website where I can manage my knowledge on various topics, so I don't have to constantly re-google stuff I should have learned already -_-

Started simple enough with topics, categories and data entries, but then I decided to add support for additional users, private/public pages, theme options (default dark theme, optional darker theme), commenting, favourites, moderation queue for flagged posts/users, etc. etc. etc. Now it is an unending project that will never be complete lol.

Edit: And now I started refactoring the existing code.... Just because.

@wizzzard Show us :)

@PrivateGER @Bitwise Not quite ready to show to the public yet, it has to be perfect, y'know? Lol :P

@wizzzard Remember, Devs are the best testers ;)

Not dev related: I met people to watch Star Wars Rogue One in preparation for the new Star Wars. Visiting the premiere in original version <3 this week. Was on a metal evening and played Divinity Original Sin for too many hours. Now being with my partner enjoying life.

Dev related: working on the frontend part of my startup, admirering it's complete ugliness.

@justwellbrock that sounds like an awesome weekend. What bands did you see?

I made that 😅😅
Code is so atrocious 😂😂😂

@shellbug yeah, it really was. Bit exhausted because of so many things but yeah 😅

There were no bands this time. Just a bar metal setting in the local café 😉

I connected my elliptical bike to my Arduino UNO, and the Arduino to my Laptop. I made a program that tells me my speed, distance and time I've been exercising. Also, as I sometimes get "stuck" using my phone and forget to cycle, I made the program pause my music when I stop cycling, and show a pop-up. When I start cycling again, the pop-up disappears and the music gets resumed.

Multiplayer online arcade using websockets, js, node, and SVG to mimic old laser screen arcade games.

Published my first android app! Only a simple recipe app, but I'm happy 😀

Taking out my new yuneec q500 drone for its virgin flight now! Not dev but geeky :)

Aaand it lost the virginity, 2 props and a leg stand. Good job me.

I helped create a very rough skeleton for a project someone very dear to me wants to work on in his "free time" (in quotes because neither of us know what that is). Turns out, I know more than I thought I did. 😄

@shivayl thanks for the tip. 👍🏾

@shivayl yup, designers call it "research".

I'm gonna watch the NEW STAR WARS MOVIE!!! Yaaaaay!!! ★_★

@toXel 10h until the premiere here...

@calmyourtities
I really liked the concept. It's really awesome and fun.

**Bug report**
Input: This is a test

This is obviously less than 200 characters.

@github thanks! that's a known bug that i haven't been able to consistently reproduce, but ill investigate a big more

@calmyourtities well. It will be fun to debug an inconsistent bug. Extra good lucks for debugging it.

Recently, I debugged such a bug which didn't occur always. In my case, the culprit was due to a race condition which lead to triggering another event sometimes before the mandatory event was initiated and hence caused the bug.

@github oof, sounds like you had fun

@calmyourtities yup. It was way too much fun.
2 more such Heisenberg uncertainty bugs in my bucket currently.

I spent the week of Christmas installing a new staircase and making tongue and groove planks for the new hardwood flooring I will be installing in the upstairs hallway. Also got to lay out a bunch of custom wainscoting.

@maxsimon write a crawler to get some sort of "historical" data and then throw ML on it, to see if you can predict the results. Could be anything from your countries lotory numbers, daily comuters in public transport, lotto numbers or you could try weather prediction. All the measuring station/data as input an next days weather as output and see if you're able to predict something....

Not a project, but working to improve my concurrency/async knowledge. Realized during an interview that, since I haven't had to work with it much, I probably need to shore up my knowledge. Just going through the appropriate, 50 page section in my Bible (C# in a Nutshell).

Also: waffles!

@calmyourtities I like it lol

@dfox

So what are the new api endpoints?
