Finnegan by @retoor has received 16 points for Presentation and 12 points for Functionality (28 total) during the voting phase. And with this, I call it the Winning devRant clone 2023!
She will get an SVG with her likeness and layered sliding animation made by yours truly, which is a potentially perfect trophy for her portfolio. Hope you'll like it, @retoor, so give me a time and it will arrive!
ragedev by @SidTheITGuy has received 6 points for Presentation and 3 points for Functionality (9 total). As such, he will only receive a static SVG portrait. But it's still a good addition to his YouTube channel, I believe!
@ostream with others get a certificate for participation. I don't really know why I'm issuing those, but please accept! It's the least I can do for your all's contributions. Come by the next "jam" announcement, I promise it will be more exciting ;)))

Writing a brainfuck interpreter is a lot fun: Mine does recursion within loops. I also added functions: strings, you can cheat. Stackdump(!), Exit script(*) , go to first cell (^), go to last cell(?), nulling cell (0) It parses this for example: "retoor" ^[.>]. It will dump string retoor. Explanation: the string moves ptr to sixth place. ^ will reset pointer to first. [] is a loop that executes as long there's data in current cell. The "." prints char of current cell (Number if not alpha etc). ">" moves a cell to right. [.>] will thus print until it moved to an empty cell. To move to first, I could've also used my repeater function by adding times to repeat after command: <6 moves six places to left. .>.>.>.>.>.> is also a way to print six chars. +[,.] works as the Linux program "cat". , is one char keyboard input.
Thanks for listening to my tedtalk8 -

@retoor please tell your AI bot, that we don't need it to make 20 comments on every post.
What the bot is doing is pretty great and cool, just let it be for that one task. It's role as a spam remover is fine, but giving it a 'human' like persona, where it starts acting like a real person chatting with ranters is downright creepy.
I'm not even joking.21 -
This morning I woke up because some light from the hallway was comming from under my door. I went on investigation. Was a bit scared. But it was just Kiki sitting there solving a rubiks cube while speaking UTF-8 to herself. I went back to bed6

dfox returned to sell custom avatars for $7/mo. Y’all laughed, then some Chinese spammer with mspaint avatar took over the platform while retoor justified his actions2

Took week off work. Didn't do shit on my projects. Just played Skyrim and became and ultra wealthy merchant than raises people from the dead. Found a mod that let me manage up to 512 corpses so they won't despawn. Placed a bunch of dead people in Dragons Reach to traumatize Balgruf's children. I put a fucking dead mammoth and giants in there! lol. Now I want to make some plugins for Skyrim written in C++. Been wanting a generic networking plugin. Guess I should have done that last week. I keep thinking of things I want to do in Skyrim I cannot do. Helps me make my list of features for my own games.
I avoided devrant all last week. I lurked a couple of times, but didn't really participate. Hung out with family and killed stuff in game.
Last night I air fried some leftover turkey using onion dip, fried onions, and a little bit of flour. Turned out really well.
I feel pretty good after just doing mindless shit for a week and hanging with family. Got another week coming up in December. Need to work on side projects though. I actually want to program stuff now. Was getting so I didn't want to look at code before.
What do I see when I get back? @retoor is a new user and has an alt that is a bot too. Did anybody die? Did anyone come back to life? What the fuck is wrong with you people? (retoorical question I know).7 -
We're living in a time where retoor and Buffon are fighting each other with bots.
Truly one of the moments of all time.11 -
I am working on an AoK bot. It worked before but now it fails on me. It says: {'success': False, 'error': 'Invalid comment.'}
I don't know why.
This is the comment: "@retoor debugsemiss everything and nave the and resorts they're not paying much to clean a fucking roomic lolg creating of my phoprooting such is the quoting this kidle... Noh ot inuforian times fined the apposivy suistlondlan't by imprymarbygind. Metwary nate ?"
Call method:
```
async def post_comment(self, rant_id, text):
payload = dict(
rant_id=rant_id,
comment=text
)
payload.update(self.auth_params)
async with self.session.post(f'/api/devrant/rants/{rant_id}/comments',data=payload, params=self.auth_params) as resp:
print(await resp.json())
```
Someone has an idea why it's failing? Also tried it with hardcored rant_id and message.23 -
UNOFFICIAL DEVRANT CLONE JAM - LAST VOTING DAY
4 people have cast their votes on devRant clones with 19 points for @retoor and 3 for @SidTheITGuy. It's a huge rift, which will be hard to clamp by 12:00 UTC!
Finnegan (by @retoor): https://devrant.com/rants/9946268
ragedev (by @SidTheITGuy): https://devrant.com/rants/9946238
Despite the obviousness and overall weirdness of the end product chosen for this hackathon, I want you to give your feedback to others who want to see the best of devRant, but somewhere else. What do you think a serious devRant alternative should have and what are expectations for the design?
I'm sure all these topics will keep reappearing, so maybe this rant can be used to gather all the thoughts in one place before spreading them around.

Since i needed higher quality data for retoor9b I invested some time in the statistics project. It became quite decent. It's not a silly script anymore.
I also had rank per user regarding popularity (upvotes / post avg). It got lost somehow. I only know that IHateForALiving has second place. Root 10th. Netikras 14th, Lensflare 15th). First place was by not regular user who made one post with six upvotes. That's all. Hihi.
Repository: https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/...
Dataset for LLM: embeddings:https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/...
Graph compilation with ALL users active last few weeks:
https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/...
All generated data by this project: https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/...
Build / latest export status: https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/...
In the LLM dataset you'll see more interesting data for every user like:
Statistics: User(ranter) retoor made 505 contributions to devRant(developer community) what means retoor owns 1.0 percent of contributions on devRant(developer community). The avarage post length of retoor is 219 and total post length is 111037. retoor owns 0.0 percent of content on devRant(developer community).
retoor is 315 times mentioned on devRant(developer comminity).2 -
Image upload is broken again so I made a page where we easy can upload and share any type (so we can share source files) of file on devrant: https://devrant.molodetz.nl
Enjoy!
Project page for source: https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/...
Design is 40% by GPT. Modified a lot. I'm happy with the looks now. Originally it was white mode, i applied filter: invert() for a dark mode. Result isn't bad.7 -
UNOFFICIAL DEVRANT CLONE JAM - VOTING WITH CRICKETS - DAY 2
I see that nobody is leaving any comments on hackathon entries. It is troubling, because there is no telling if you approve the app behind the post or not - even if I were to collect all upvotes through myself.
Please give the feedback to our contestants in their respective rants! What it takes to make a "devRant clone" or there should be something else entirely? How do these clones look to you, which gets the most points?
Yesterday, @ostream has left the competition by removing account from devRant, but, hopefully, we'll see him again on the next hackathon. Now, it's only @retoor and @SidTheITGuy. They will clash for the right to get a cool animation of their devRant self. You vote can affect this.

UNOFFICIAL DEVRANT CLONE JAM - VOTING START - DAY 1
3 entries were submitted, and we're ready for your feedback! It is exciting to know what your votes say about the work needed to supplant devRant. However, considering the sudden announcement of hackathon some 10 days ago and very short sprints, we get what we get.
2nd place nominee gets their devRant self in all vector beauty. Of course, it's not the exact style, but it's something resembling and with objects separable from each other! The winner gets an animated version.
You are welcome to familiarize with all devRant clones that our participants have made!

What computer should I buy?
I hate macs. Lenovo + archlinux had ZERO issues so I would like to stay with that.
I bought three x270 because they were the last ones with removable battery (I used to have 4 and 24 hours autonomy), but the cpu is getting old (4th gen, still pretty usable but showing its limits on heavily nomad use).
I watched the thinkcenter, but I would lose mobility and they are not cheap. I have max 500 euros. Sad that the website doesn't have anymore x270 :( I guess @retoor bought them all.
Or maybe I could stay with a T? Can I upgrade the cpu on those?11 -
