how’s v4 going?

and also, if you’ve got a css plan, how does it look?

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

pretty good except for how i havent worked on it in a few weeks

sparkd's avatar @sparkd

that’s good to know

it’s also a good idea to take breaks to prevent demotivation

Do the tokens on the beta site also work on the prod site?

The reason I need to know is I want to make an extension and one of the things is I want to be able to mark messages as unread on the beta site. And to do that you’d have to make a request to the prod api. So yeah :P

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

no. but sometimes yes

oren's avatar @oren

what does that mean

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

v3 tokens are allowed on only a few whitelisted endpoints

oren's avatar @oren

Can you add the Mark as unread endpoint?

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

no, the v3 pieces are being phased out anyway.

i think it’d be cool if we could like comments

this can be good for voting or something and the most liked comment can appear first

Why is @kanyewest banned?

oren's avatar @oren

You should have contacted me before banning it, as it was clearly said that I own the account

oren's avatar @oren

I’m guessing it’s because @kanye has “I love hitler” as their bio, and you just went ahead and banned @kanyewest as well, thinking they were both owned by the same person. (They’re not, check the IP address)

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

because he's a Nazi?

oren's avatar @oren

It doesn't really matter, since I'm not gonna use the account, I just think you should have told me when you did it

jackybordercollie's avatar @jackybordercollie

one of my classmates at school saw your short about turning the mojang logo into amogus

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

i’m practically a celebrity

jackybordercollie's avatar @jackybordercollie

yes

chester's avatar @chester

Is there a log of searches in the backend?

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

not really. i might be able to get it from my nginx logs but those go away after 30 days i think.

chester's avatar @chester

how does you fell about bata

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

dont like it

chester's avatar @chester

Makes sense

oren's avatar @oren

you should make it so you can disable your wall comments. it would be helpful for some people I think

sparkd's avatar @sparkd

how much does it cost per month to host this website? i know it’s not cheap for sure.

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

(CHF and USD are pretty similar)

  • domain is around CHF 24.18 annually

  • self-hosted with two servers costing CHF ~400-500 total, including equipment

  • no clue how much we pay for electricity or internet, but i can’t imagine its cheap because energy crisis

    • one server is consuming ~150 watts rn. theres sites that let you calculate the energy prices there — i’m personally a bit too scared to check :P

wasteof.money lives up to the name?

sparkd's avatar @sparkd

dang

i would’ve been broke by this time

jaydixx's avatar @jaydixx

quick question:

why are post likes tracked as a number and not an array?

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

they aren’t, just exposed as a number rather than an array

sparkd's avatar @sparkd

they collect user IDs which is how it can identify if you liked it or not

but the way it displays like count is by outputting the length of the array

silly's avatar @silly

When wasteof4 opens beta, will existing beta testers be able to access it? And will it have a new domain?

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

yes

e3ri's avatar @e3ri

what is the origin of I’m a wasteof user yay

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

i needed something to put as a default bio.

e3ri's avatar @e3ri

ok

e3ri's avatar @e3ri

but did you make up the phrase or did someone suggest it

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

i wrote it and intended to change it later

jaydixx's avatar @jaydixx

quick question about wasteof4:

since you’re not using the prod database for wasteof4 right now, are you going to merge the wasteof4 database with the prod database when wasteof4 enters closed/open beta testing?

jeffalo's avatar @jeffalo

its just my development database, same schema as the production one. when wasteof4 launches, it’ll be the same database as the rest of the site.

jaydixx's avatar @jaydixx

makes sense
