For anyone who might be interested - I have recently managed to get GD working on Apache24 - and I've also managed to create a "homegrown" captcha with which I hope to bamboozle the bots from META et al...

Not declaring myself an expert by any means - self taught, learning mostly by trial and error - but if anyone needs another pair of ears to listen, maybe even provide some useful info... ask the question.

Worst? No idea! Best? Here, try this.

The problem that needs to be solved is that systems of #accountability and appellate process need to be baked into the code of social communications applications, but it seems that computer #programmers do not understand why these features are essential for responsible operations.

Unfortunately, the attitude of #FOSS #developers seems to be, "If you don't like it, code it yourself." This is not how advanced societies function or come about. Specialization and division of labor are important.

chat-to.dev7 Stages of Grief Over Code BugsThe **7 Stages of Grief When You Find a Bug in Your Code**—a rollercoaster of emotions every developer knows too well. Let’s take a hilarious journey through this tragic yet relatable process. --- ### <br>**1. Denial – "This Can’t Be Happening."** *"No way. Nope. Absolutely not. My code was PERFECT. I tested it… probably. The compiler is lying. The user must have clicked something wrong. Maybe it’s a cosmic ray flipping a bit in memory. Yeah, that’s it."* You run the program again, hoping the bug was just a hallucination. Spoiler: It wasn’t. --- ### <br>**2. Anger – "WHO DID THIS?!"** *"WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?! Was it me? Was it the last dev? Was it some stupid library update? I WILL FIND YOU, BUG, AND I WILL DESTROY YOU."* You angrily scroll through Git blame, questioning life choices and the existence of JavaScript. --- ### <br>**3. Bargaining – "Please Work If I Do This One Thing…"** *"Okay, maybe if I just… add a try-catch here… or comment out this part… or restart my IDE… or sacrifice a rubber duck to the debugger gods…"* You start making irrational changes, praying to the tech deities for mercy. The bug remains unfazed. --- ### <br>**4. Depression – "I Should Just Quit and Become a Goat Farmer."** *"I’m a fraud. I don’t know how to code. Maybe I should just give up and live in the woods, herding goats. At least goats don’t segfault."* You slump in your chair, questioning your entire career while staring blankly at Stack Overflow. --- ### <br>**5. Investigation – "Fine, Let’s See What’s REALLY Going On."** *"Okay, deep breaths. Maybe if I actually read the error message… or check the logs… or use the debugger like a responsible adult…"* You begrudgingly put on your detective hat and start tracing the issue like a pro (after 47 failed print statements). --- ### <br>**6. Acceptance – "Oh. It Was a Semicolon."** *"Wait… I forgot a semicolon? I used ‘=’ instead of ‘==’? I was off by ONE in the loop condition? SERIOUSLY?!"* The bug was something embarrassingly simple. You feel both relief and deep shame. --- ### <br>**7. Overconfidence – "I Am a Coding GOD."** *"Pfft, that was nothing. I squash bugs like that before breakfast. My code is flawless. Nothing can stop me now!"* …Until the next bug appears. And the cycle begins anew. --- ### <br>**Final Thoughts** Finding a bug is like going through a breakup—painful at first, but you come out stronger (or at least with more console.log trauma). The key is to laugh, learn, and remember: **every dev has been there, and the goats aren’t hiring.** Now go forth, brave coder, and may your bugs be few and your coffee strong! ☕🐛

Hello everyone 👋!

My team at Meta is currently evaluating some cool ideas to work with creators. I can't say much right now, but it looks to be a very exciting opportunity.

If you're a game studio or solo dev with successful titles for mobile, MR/VR, or UGC-type platforms such as Roblox, Fortnite, Horizon Worlds, Rec Room, Spatial, etc., then feel free to comment below and say hi!

💡Also, send me an email if you can (my email is on my YouTube channel about section), I'd love to work with you!

As a #programmer but #beginner I already know that documentation is important: that's why I'll make a website to document my adventures and potential progress.
If you have any resources that you think could help me, do not hesitate a second!
If you have any tools to advise, do not hesitate a second!
I'm considering using :fedora: #fedora #Kinoite with #toolbx or something like #RockyLinux (but if you have other distros to advise, tell me) with :kdevelop: #kdevelop #codelite for C++, #spyder or #pycharm for Python 🐍 and #rustrover or #lapce for Rust 🦀 and :kate: #kateeditor for simple file edition.
