:50days: day #6: • I did some more godot debugging and I’ve decided to just start over with a new project but make it more organized and enhanced (the current one is a mess: github.com/AlanikREDAWN/moonshot-dragonpedia) :heavysob: • I did some crochet with the yarn I bought • I finished a DE English assignment thats due tomorrow • I’m going to read more of Shatter Me before bed! I’m liking it so far, its pretty fast paced and hard to put down

Ducky Diagnostics is a project designed for the PicoDucky (but just python for now)! It runs a series of commands and saves output to debug.txt with some formatting and voilà, a detailed list of spec's and more information about your device. You can download it from this GitHub link. (this was made for YSWS #C08QZ0P7QP6|)

Finally got IBL (mostly) working in my OpenGL renderer. I spent most of yesterday debugging some weird artifacts I was getting, but I'm pretty sure it was just some crazy high values from the HDR map I was sampling, because it works fine now after I switched to the hdr map used in the learnopengl.com tutorials. (So I just need to add some clamping to the values I think).

Used a stress-tester to debug my solution to the Closest-Pair Problem!

I finally found the registry, after 10 hours of continuous debugging (well, debugging for an absolute beginner at Java)! 🙂

Well, that was a nightmare. I have spent the last hour and a half debugging what turned out to be a single line of code, but other than that, today i have started work on the gpu conversion of my walkers thingy. Basic rundown of how it works. I store the data for each walker in a texture, I keep their position and time alive, but not much else. In my case, I store the x position in the top left of an image, (see below), encoded as a 32 bit float (using all four channels because webgl 1.0 only supports 8 bit color channels), the top right keeps the y position. In the bottom left, I keep the time alive (in frames) in the r channel, and whether to render or not (as a bool, 0 or 1) in the g channel. The bottom right is at this point unused. Each frame, I take the previous's frames texture, and render over top of it, updating using a fragment shader (which is not yet written :frown-wx:) Then, I pass that texture to another vertex shader, which generates a bunch of points based of of each pixel in the texture. In theory, its super easy, but in practice... not so much. Encoding the float over the four color channels was not fun, as I kept getting a normal distribution of points even when the initial texture was completely random (and uniform, I checked). I spent a couple hours trying to work that one out only to discover I hadn't unbound one of the webgl globals, so that was fun. Calculating the uv coordinates based only on the point index was ok, but implementing a ping pong frame buffer for the texture update frag shader was a bit tricky. Tomorrow I'll try and get this working, so I've got them functional and moving. Below: Computed texture Rendered walkers (from computed texture) Colored renderered walkers (r: posx, g:posy, b:index)

First Scrapbook post! Today I worked on this auction website for my school. Of course that .prevent right there will take me 1 hour of debug time :pain-gold:

Day 15 of #C045S4393CY| I really wanted to show the redesigned clock app today, I worked on it a lot, but my code completely stopped working around 2 days ago and its showing no errors, I spent a few hours today trying to fix it adding debug prints everywhere and more, but I can't seem to fix it, but I'll keep working on it, but there will not be a big reveal. I have been using try and except blocks but somewhere along in the code something has to be happening, and if it's really small, I might have to add back code function by function and see what happens. I did work on the app some amount in a different program for testing so I could integrate it but again, it needs other functions and all so I am focusing on making sure the phone does not stop right after starting.

Day 14 of #C045S4393CY| I am expecting to finish the clock app redesign tomorrow! Today I worked on functionality and logic. But I have a huge error right now that stops my code from opening, the code does not even show a single debug statement which is a huge problem, it suddenly started happening and I have to fix it so I have been trying. Don't have much to show though.

Day 8 of #C045S4393CY|: Didn’t have much time today so worked a lot on debugging. Also then change the code so you enter a symbol and it does the analysis for it. github.com/Ventengo1/EllioAnalysis/blob/main/main.py

Day 7 #C045S4393CY| very WIP site, added ADS on uzi, fixed muzzle flash, also i tried to debug hands more, but its just too hard, i might try another method or just give up w hands

Day 6 of #C045S4393CY| Today again like yesterday was a debugging day, I don't have much to show visually but I was able to make the code a bit faster, not crazy faster but a bit faster, and I am still working on connecting apps and building prototypes of code to integrate the AI with the clock app. This should help everything work better when I do implement new features, because sometimes if the setup is not nice everything breaks down and it becomes a mess

Day 5 #C045S4393CY| added Uzi, no animations yet, but configured it so it works + SMG ammo, also tried to debug a bit with why the IK wasnt working, also found a bug where zombies take time to register that they're dead

Day 4 of #C045S4393CY|. Spent around 1hr debugging and moving through code error by error. Started to figure out what it is analyzing. The code is now analyzing the waves but still working on the decision making. github.com/Ventengo1/EllioAnalysis

Day 3 of #C045S4393CY|. Today I worked on continuing to debug the code and make changes so that now I at least get to where it says that it is loading and going through the waves. Still experiencing errors after that though. github.com/Ventengo1/EllioAnalysis/tree/main

Day 3 of #C045S4393CY|: Migrated to GitLab CI for production deployments on @HackClubLeeks , alongside setting up GitLab for Slack integration on HC Slack workspace across Recap Time Squad's namespace. Also cooked up some dotfiles commits by the way. Diffs: • leeksbot: gitlab.com/recaptime-dev/hackclub-leeksbot/-/compare/55a3e8703bb367e654ef593bf5d0afdb4302b8ff...e9939c57ef4272ada61860c7ac0882a94cf633f4 (a lot of failed GitLab CI jobs lol due to debugging hell) • dotfiles: gitlab.com/andreijiroh-dev/dotfiles/-/compare/ab9ff7620d9854c5ec5c5b77fe2702b782a292b0...58b401cd0bb2b3f4757e0e46da3925633741b819 Also opened gitlab.com/gitlab-community/community-members/onboarding/-/issues/850 for my future endeavors on contributing to GitLab 🙂

Exam week is finally over! Today I added some coins to my game, with some more vfx, some more sounds, font rendering (with SDL_ttf), some ui improvements, leaves (particles that fall from the trees and stuff, kinda hard to see with all of the coins), and did some debugging (another seg fault waah). Next I am planning to add some lava, music and a main menu (finally). github.com/snej55/paper-world

Started working on some method to automatically fill in some blanks for structs in case I run into stack exceptions. Development is overall going well but I hate having to go through a file that's a thousand lines long to find a specific variable, function call, etc. It's getting less complicated, and debugging everything isn't too arduous of a task.

Fixed a handful of errors that resulted in stack exceptions. Should work for the most part now. Now I have to deal with debugging it and stuff, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem. Link: github.com/dj1ch/HomeNet
