dynamic placeholders: surprisingly unintuitive to implement

me hangin’ with my favorite scarecrow

I woke up this morning, chose Alpine.js, and have no regrets

working on a bank feature (i mean, what else would i be doing)

making sprig but with ruby

:dino-drake-nah: hack club sticker parodies :dino-drake-yea: hack club coaster parodies

i made a… skribbl.io bot that just straight-up draws the word

i rewrote the way hack club bank manages transfer state to use aasm :skelly-dance-rainbow: this is interesting to nobody but me but i’ve been planning this migration for a long time

day 1 of #n-days-in-public

made a pie

you’ve heard of Ruby on Rails, but this time, we’re taking the roads. (going to rhode island for rubyconf mini)

This morning I wrote a Webpack loader that lets you import Sass variables. (I promptly deleted it and swore never to speak of it again)

i made another thing

i made a thing codepen.io/cjdenio/pen/GRGRoop

Imagine using a CNC as a typewriter (stay tuned for video)

Day 2 of writing a li'l song and throwing it into the void

okay so i kept forgetting to do #10-days-in-public. then i did some self-reflection, hit a minor emotional crisis, etc., and realized i should be doing something else. Day 1 of writing a li'l song and throwing it into the void

day 4, #10-days-in-public, yeah got the docker image for this to build again!

woooooo so today i didn't work on resolute but i helped make (the beginnings of) a cnc machine #10-days-in-public

first day of #10-days-in-public. got all the SSL certs renewed so production actually works again. tonight I'm gonna figure out why deploys aren't working (something related to Yarn PnP)

sup scrappy

Orpheus: now in :som-3:

bank phone

So I stayed up way too late last night designing a stream overlay for envelope stuffing. Here's the result. codepen.io/cjdenio/pen/zYjZzeG

sprigboard

this was a worthwhile use of my time, yeah

Gadzooks merch?

Stumbled upon a nice view whilst gallivanting.

It's conference season! clb.li/conf

:dino-drake-nah: !isAdmin :dino-drake-yea: isAdmin't

workin' on... dropdowns here's some code

I made bagels with Ced and Ella (and Max, kinda) and took this lame photo

Fish.

On a Plane.

Working on a better login flow for Bank!

Visited a makerspace with the Magnificent @msw and the Illustrious @ella, the latter of whom helped me laser-cut something for my desk (or my wall).

Montreal!

In the kitchen, cookin' music

i wonder if this still works

we do serious business at hack club bank. we even have an official office sign

Festivities.

Saw a train (pictured) and a bowling-ball-juggler.

Today I worked on a super-cool ~jank~ Bank link unfurler for Slack! (code) here's a chicken

I'm definitely showcasing an upcoming Bank feature, and not promoting Wack Club's donation page

:bank-hackclub-party:

Today I went on a bike ride with the one and only @matt (the first official Hack Club New Hampshire Meetup!) Saw a bunny (pictured) and a deer.

Did some updating to my website. (added a guestbook too– thanks @ella for the idea!)

eyyyyyy my thebluealliance.com PR got merged

Copilot be like: // confetti

found a bea(r|ver) thing

Pulling apart GitHub's WebAuthn implementation :hacker:

So this is what I'm debugging tonight :errors:

working on that thing again

This is definitely overengineered.

all of gadzooks' products offer the very best in uptime and reliability

Working on this neat little match-result-fetcher for my robotics team's website!

Wrote a neat little Rails concern :broken_clock:

Added frontend error tracking to Resolute, which was a fun foray into injecting build-time variables with esbuild :esbuild:

:pee: ~the hack club stack strikes again~

It seems that Orpheus has wandered her way into the physical realm...

snow!

Currently dealing with a rather comedic series of issues related to SSL :cloud-thoughts-head-empty:

gamelab share links now look cooler in Slack :yeah: gamelab.hackclub.com/share/0ba8f9f8cfba79a1dfed02266bbf512b

tailwind enjoyer :tailwind:

Pre-season robotics competition.

wordle but for slack channels

:thisisfine:

Ah, the fun of running your own PaaS

Went for a snow hike and saw a bird.

i made the tooltips work! (most of the time)

Snow!

Link unfurling 2.0, and this time it's running in production :yay:

(janky) link unfurling!

You can change your password now!

Re-did my GitHub Profile README: github.com/cjdenio

more Docusaurus stuff! :smug-dino:

Switched Resolute over to Yarn 3 + PnP, a change I thought I'd never make. Begone, ye node_modules.

my code-in-the-dark for hackclub.com/slack :xd: (if you participated you should share yours too!)

here, have some jank code

Makin' a Tailwind plugin to ship later today!

trying out laravel :phparrot:

i made, er, a cell

Exciting win this evening: I wrote a Caddy plugin for DNSimple to facilitate the fetching of a single wildcard TLS cert for hackclub.app AND IT ACTUALLY WORKED :ultrafastparrot:

Writing a DNSimple package for Caddy :haas:

At a concert!

My very much work-in-progress rendition of Czardas, a fun piece for solo violin

@scrappy-U015D6A36AG?

Working on a browser extension with Svelte, Tailwind, and Parcel! :svelte: (haven't touched WebExtensions for a while)

tried my hand at some landing page design 🎨 useresolute.com

lol i made coffeescript work with next.js

Made a little :resolute: demo with Alpine.js!

Still no coherent vision, but it's (partially) responsive now!

wrote a li'l slack integration for a li'l project

@scrappy-U015D6A36AG????

Turbo Streams 2: electric boogaloo except this time it's running in production! ~try it out at useresolute.com~

Also messing around with Turbo Streams (turns out it integrates really well with Rails Action Cable 🛤️)

bank has a new and improved 404 page :pogfish:

hackin'

who dis

Try viewing this image in Safari :safari:

cool upcoming project just hit 100 commits 💯

my first rodeo with Active Storage in Rails!

This modal was written in JSX. No big deal, right? I mean, everyone and their cousin uses JSX and React. But what about JSX without React? Yep, I hacked together a tiny React.createElement polyfill that lets elements like this be used as simply as document.body.appendChild(<div>HELLO WORLD!</div>). I didn't even have to use Babel (esbuild ftw) :cooll-thumbs: I didn't publish this as its own package (mostly because I'm sure someone else already has), but the majority of the code is in this file if you want to check it out 👀

made a cool thing with Alpine.js! :js:

i ❤️ authorization

Switched an upcoming project from Webpack to PostCSS + esbuild (jsbundling-rails is somewhat helpful)

Early version of Resolute's Slack integration :cooll-thumbs:

set up dokku on a li'l server

#adventofcode day 2 :wahoo-fish:

cool thing

my Advent of Code solution :peefest:

customizing docusaurus

ooooooo forgot to post this last week: I passed an audition into the NH All-State Festival Orchestra, basically an annual event for the top high-school musicians in New Hampshire! :nh: I'm super excited this year because (barring catastrophe) it'll be in-person again (it was canceled my sophomore year and "virtual" my junior year) attached is a nonsensical series of numbers to appease scrappy

the API is taking shape :hellmo: this message is sponsored by jbuilder

Implementing server-side OAuth :yeah:

SNOW

Trying out HAML 🤩

Hiked a mountain today!

also (horribly) transcribing a song for no reason

I did not do anything worthwhile today (or really at all this week) BUT I figured out Go vendoring in order to patch a bug in a library that #temp-email uses :cooll-thumbs:

help i actually like rails

after many tears, I managed to get React + Rollup working (I had only ever used Webpack previously)

Turbo + Bank == neat progress bar

Kotlin running on an FRC robot! (thanks @aiden.bai05 for the inspiration :yeah: )

Leaf season is here

when the mayhem bot causes mayhem

Here's a sneak peek at what I've been working on for the past few days: actual email integration for the CoC reporting system!

met up with some hack clubbers in boston :yeah: (@tmb, @matt, @ky200617, and @kunalbotla!)

Today I visited Champlain College in Vermont, saw the løveli lakes, and observed a crucial typo

Updating my 2FA extension for Raycast to work with the new API!

Made some headway on the #hack-as-a-service CLI!

set up a code-server powered in-browser IDE (that I will probably never use)

:haas:

some might call this a waste of time they're absolutely correct

Some ask why, I ask why not.

musical musings

Wrote a frontend test for #hack-as-a-service!!!!!!

fixed a semi-major #hack-as-a-service bug by adding one character :yuh:

all of my posts are literally code screenshots but here's another one (this time I added Cypress-powered testing to the #hack-as-a-service frontend)

hey look it's a database transaction :postgres:

doin' what i do best (code, that is)

interesting stuff that happened today: • I randomly got Xcode 13 (and it has Vim mode) • gadzooks.me now uses Next.js ~🤮~ • I won a :pop-os: coaster(???)

hey look i'm an entrepreneur gadzooks.me

webauthn shenanigans

behold: the moose and the lobster

:meesedarkmode:

messing around with custom psql prompts :postgres:

i have nothing interesting to say so here's a starbucks email that almost caused the collapse of reality as we know it

made the #hack-as-a-service docs (hackclub.app/docs) look cooler (and work on mobile) :yeah:

I hate email so much that I wrote a horrendous non-spec-client SMTP server in ~2 hours at midnight ✉️ send an email to anything@mail.calebden.io and it'll get forwarded to #calebs-steps (unless it breaks which it probably will) fun facts: • doesn't support TLS • doesn't check message signatures • uses regex + some cursed logic to extract the message • actively violates several parts of the SMTP specification and the github: github.com/cjdenio/bad-mail-server

I don't know if you need to see a turtlesnail today, but we all do at some point so here you go 💖

set up a somewhat cool status page for #hack-as-a-service :yeah:

@scrappy-U015D6A36AG wants me to post so here's some... uh... rust

My house, not my cat

c o d e

So that's what happens when you fire up netcat and try to log in over SMTP :peefest:

Big news: scrapbooks now have RSS feeds! 🎉 Visit yours by appending .rss to the end of your scrapbook's URL, e.g. scrapbook.hackclub.com/caleb.rss (doesn't support custom domains) You should also be able to run /feed subscribe <https://scrapbook.hackclub.com/username.rss> to subscribe a Slack channel to your scrapbook, but I admittedly haven't tried it. Thanks @sampoder for helping out! :sam-1:

just a friendly test post

one more dinopoll update before i go to sleep :interested_dino: the polling dino has its own workflow step now, so you can automate the creation of polls! 📈

Some exciting new @undefined updates! :confused-dino: • First off, polls now have a handy-dandy progress bar ███████ to let you know how popular an option is at a glance :eyes_squint: • Second off, you can now create polls that allow other people to add options; super handy if you're looking for recommendations or project name/domain ideas! (it's also a super sneaky way of adding more than 4 options to a poll :blobninja:)

packs bags

also made this little clicking animation using a fancy CSS selector with a Bulma modal

set up public analytics for my website! clb.li/analytics calebden.io

look at this beautiful query :postgres:

I’m doing some macro-backed GraphQL queries in Rust :ferrisbongo:

look at this wonderful snippet of :ferrisbongo:

writing a script to download hackagotchi’s config ~why am i still doing this~

that feeling when you compile hackagotchi and it doesn’t immediately die

:ferrisbongo:

I couldn’t come up with a status, so I wrote a script that randomizes it every 5 seconds ¯\(ツ)/¯

finally organized my dock, though i’ll likely never see it again (raycast ftw) also scrappy’s down so this won’t get uploaded (my posts never get uploaded anyway tho)

messing around with shared libraries

codepen.io/cjdenio/pen/zYqZpZG

6 months ago, I didn't know anyone my age interested in coding. While my past self didn't recognize it, I deeply needed a community of like-minded, and similarly aged, individuals. Then I discovered Hack Club, and everything changed. I was introduced to a brave new world where ability isn't confined by age, it's allowed to blossom. A world where even a high school student can, with the help of others, make truly significant contributions to the today's world. From the second I joined, I've been continually blown away by how much Hack Club has impacted me and others. And this all started, a bunch of years ago, by one man with a vision. Soooo... happy birthday @zrl! 🎂 You're nothing short of awesome, and I hope you have an amazing day! 🎉

Ayyyy look at that number

LaTeX is amazing :fastparrot:

Tryin' to build Alacritty from source :linux:

This is me using Codespaces! Works terribly on Firefox.

Here's my first multistage Docker image!

I'm gonna try to get @scrappy to react with as many emojis as possible, for no particular reason. When we arrived in space, there were shouts of "yay!" and "hooray!" I wanted to sleep, but the sunset was much too captivating. As I struggled to paint a representation of the masterpiece, my art was cut short by a reminder of our predicament. Our ship's Linux core had been damaged by a rain storm. Upon further inspection, is appeared as though the Rust installation on our ship's robot had been corrupted. We debated which language to replace it with; "Golang!" Matt said. "Swift!" Linus shouted. "Deno!" "JavaScript!" We decided on rewriting the robot's code using minecraft redstone (that way we didn't have to use npm). 15 years later, once we finished, we pushed to the GitHub repository. But wait! The robot's hardware was also severely crippled. We had to 3d print some parts, after getting the models from Google.

Started work on an Uno game renderer in React (Slack bot to come) :unoreverse:

Ah yes, Slack bots written in Go :gopher:

Relax

Coming soon...

Today I switched from bash to fish! 🐟

Wanna rickroll your website's viewers? Enter rick.js, a zero-dependency, 25 line JS library designed to make disguising links easy. :rickroll:

Some fun GitHub API stuff :githubparrot:

Also today I added linting to a Go project. Look at all those errors

posting the same image as luke because it totally has my username in it

:ricey3:

Well that's just downright sad.

Today I discovered that Git hooks are super useful

Today I did some mobile dev for #C01819D4L23 w/ @matthewgleich! 📱

Today I spent way too long on this challenge. (haven't solved it yet)

Today I fixed an issue with Replier that made it trigger on message deletion. #slackapiquirks

I'm building a Slack app in Dart 🎯! Here's my pubspec.yaml...

Part of the 9 days of sharing some of my favorite quotes!

So starting tomorrow I'll be vacationing off the grid 🌴 As I won't be working on any projects, I've decided to spend the next 9 days sharing some of my favorite quotes, from thought-provoking, funny, and in-between. Enjoy!

Guess what! Replier isn't limited to Hack Club anymore; you can now install your favorite autoreply bot on your own Slack workspace! 🎉 :yay: :fastparrot: Install it here!

Learning Bloc for Flutter :flutter:

I hit a streak count of 50 🎉

Today I went hiking in the White Mountains. (Also, strong winds make my hair look more majestic than normal)

I'm proud to present... 🎉 :scrappyparrot: <https://scrapbook.hackclub.com/caleb|My new Scrapbook profile!> 🎉 :scrappyparrot: Featuring a lovely beach scene with a captivating sunset, this theme is kinda decent in my (humble) opinion. Some fun facts about it: • Every 4 minutes, the sun sets, then rises ☀️ • It's 100% CSS animations! No GIFs were harmed in the making of this scrapbook. :parrot: • The bird's name is Garry. 🐦 He really like skiing, and wants to become a professional ski jumper someday. ⛷️ • It doesn't work on mobile, and it'll actually warn you if you try to view it on a small screen! 📱 • I used many much pseudo-elements 🖼️ Check it out (on desktop, please)! scrapbook.hackclub.com/caleb

Finally learning Figma :figma:

Did a call with Max, Luke, and Malte about some Slack stuff today :slack:

Preparing for the Scrapbook decorating contest 😎

I added basic unit testing to Replier! :fastparrot:

Today I migrated a Docker image 🐳 from Debian to Alpine. ~And I definitely didn't run into any issues along the way~ 😬 github.com/cjdenio/contributor_list

Figured I'd share some recent updates to Replier! 🤖 ✨ Cool feature 1: Autoreplies in DMs now only get sent once every 15 minutes. That way you can still have a conversation, even if you're on vacation! 🌴 ✨ Cool feature 2: Your autoreply will now get triggered if someone mentions you in a channel or multi-person DM. It even works in threads! 🎉 That's all, folks! Remember to check it out on GitHub :githubparrot:!

I opened a PR in the slack-go repo to add the new Header block!

r e a c t :react:

Doing some c o d i n g (for the autoreply bot)

I'm proud to announce the launch of Replier, a Slack app for setting up autoreplies! 🤖 🎉 Going on vacation or taking a break from Slack? 🌴 Cover all your bases by automatically letting people know. Try it out here! Replier is open-source on GitHub, so feel free to open issues, contribute, or give it a 🌟!

Building a WordPress theme! :wordpress:

Discovered a tool called wp-env that lets you easily spin up WordPress environments for developing themes and plugins. As a :wordpress: nerd, it's super helpful!

Docs are fun

Got first place in my driver's ed exam practice! 🎉 :parrot:

Made a li'l incoming call animation in CSS ☎️ codepen.io/cjdenio/pen/xxZmoev

Just fixed the weirdest issue with vercel dev. Turns out you can't name a Go serverless function Auth (so I went with LoginRoute) 🤷

Here's a stock photo of a lazy-looking pooch. I just got home from vacation and have nothing exciting to ship at the moment 😁

Building my second project with Go! :gopher: This time, I'm using the image package...

Designed a decent logo for a new project! :slack: Now I gotta go write the code...

Just discovered that Vue has built-in list swap animations! :fastparrot:

Today I went driving with my driver's ed instructor for the first time! 🚗 Suffice to say I did not make headlines. 😌 That isn't actually the car I drove, by the way ⬇️

Introducing... Contributor List! 🎉 It's a GitHub Action that automatically adds a cool contributor list to your README (like that one ⬇️) Don't like the default look? You can customize it to your heart's content with a Jinja template. Check it out! github.com/cjdenio/contributor_list#readme

Working on the Birthday Dashboard 🎂

Built a basic Home Tab for @birthdaybot! Check it out!

Working on an FRC-related Discord bot 🤖

Two months ago today, I was invited to join this strange-looking Slack workspace where everyone knew how to code. These past two months have been some of the coolest in my life! :parrot:

Messing around with the concept of building broadcast graphics with React & GSAP :react: (CasparCG is really really cool)

Making a fancy App Home! :slack:

OK, I'm forcing myself to work on only one major project at a time. I'm prone to having way too many unfinished projects 😄

Added FRC match score notifications to FRCBot 2.0! 🤖

Playing around with the Google Cloud Datastore API :google:

Umm... 800 commits?

Just did a really satisfying refactor, turning ~270 lines into this tiny file you see here! (It's for this project)

Here, enjoy a gif of a spinning beachball :beachball:

I just upgraded to one of ngrok's paid plans! (They gave me an educational discount) No more randomly generated URLs for me 😄

Since @tmb wanted someone to ship something, I added a scrapbook counter widget to my website!

I pulled every single scrapbook post into a MongoDB cluster to do some analytical stuff. :stonks: I hope to share some of it soon! And yes, that's 1,963 amazing posts!

Working on my GitHub profile's README! 📝 That technology/projects table is powered by @matthewgleich's _amazing_ GitHub Action 🚀 github.com/cjdenio

Added a view counter to my scrapbook! 👀 The backend is open source on GitHub, too!

Contributed to the scrapbook by making links with spaces work!

rishi isn't letting up and it is not funny. i need to take him down (after sam, of course)

Made a browser extension that lets you see full streak counts on streaks.hackclub.com and scrapbook.hackclub.com 🔥 You can download it for :chrome: and :firefox: on GitHub!

I just finished writing BirthdayBot, a wonderful Slack bot that posts a fancy image like this in #lounge when your birthday comes around! 🎉 Want to sign up? Just type /birthday to get started! BirthdayBot is open source, written in Go :gopher:!

Baby ship: You can now post messages with newlines using the Ship CLI. 🚀 Hey there from another line! 👋

OK, football noob here. 🏈 I know nothing about the game, the scoring, or why it even exists. 🤷‍♂️ But I am a TV broadcast nerd, so I made a CSS version of the 2019 NFL score bug! It also happens to be my first project using CSS Grid. Most of the CSS classes are like whitething and yellowthing 'cause I actually don't know what they are 😂 codepen.io/cjdenio/pen/MWKreMZ

Finally sitting down and learning React. :react: I still like Vue better, but maybe that'll change, who knows?

I'm sticking this in here 'cause it's not every day @zrl comments on your ship 😊

Now seems like a good time to release Ship CLI 0.0.3! 🚀 You can now ship from an image/video URL 🖼️, provide a custom channel ID with the --channel option, get notified of future updates! :parrot: Just run npm i -g hackclub-ship in your preferred terminal emulator, and you'll automatically get updated to v0.0.3. Changelog

Introducing: the [un]official Hack Club Ship CLI! :laptop: Now, shipping is as easy as ship image.png! You can install it with npm install -g hackclub-ship (or here). Code (and docs) are up here!

Just published my first npm package 🎉 Formal ship to come...

Fancy channel selection thing 🎉

Got Slack OAuth authorization working in a CLI 🎉

Started work on a CLI that lets you ship from your terminal! 🚀

Trying to wrap my head around this thing called Yarn 2...

I'm trying out some QR code generation stuff for @matthewgleich's GP trading app! 🎉

Made it through day 2 of virtual drivers' ed! (I'm as happy as I look 😜)

Upon discovering Faker.js, I decided to build a profile page that generates random user data. Check it out! fake-profile.vercel.app github.com/cjdenio/fake-profile

Today I earned my first couple bucks doing freelance software development work! :congaparrot::congaparrot::congaparrot:

It's MacOS! It's Linux! It's... themed Ubuntu! itsfoss.com/make-ubuntu-look-like-macos

Hey fellow #CGVCSNLAJ people! I'm working on Slack link unfurling for FRC links as part of FRCBot 2.0. Hopefully, I'll release it this summer!

I implemented a file upload system in Go :gopher:

Learning Go, MongoDB, and building a Slack app? How much better can it get? ☀️

Added an "inspirational" quote to my profile. (CSS pseudo-elements are magic) I setup a custom domain, too 👀 scrapbook.calebdenio.me

Today I almost fixed a security vulnerability in Scrappy (but someone beat me to it) I wrote some code, though, and that's what counts.Always verify your Slack app's endpoints, kids!

I finally got around to customizing my scrapbook profile page! 🎉

I'm building this Raspberry Pi-runnable file upload scheduler 🎉 All I have right now is a Vuetify-powered frontend, but the backend is slowly taking shape 👀
