Got my Hacktoberfest event approved by MLH ๐ช and officially:
Organized entirely by a solo student
Hacktoberfest Is Coming to Nadiad, Gujarat ๐ Official MLH Meetup at DDU, 15 Oct
I just want people around me to know about opportunities like DEV, MLH and Hacktoberfest. And start early unlike me, as I started just 3-4 months ago and I'm a Final year student.๐
Also, this is my first time doing an event cause I'm not even part of any college club๐, but still managed to get a small team of volunteers!
Congratulations! Excited to see how it goes ๐
Participating in Hacktoberfest for the first time ever! Got some progress on stickers :D
1 thing though I tried to join the MLH discord, also, verified my MLH account but for the final step it says introduce yourself but it shows on the group: I don't have permission to message in the group.
Can you help me out Sir @francistrdev when you get free(its not a critical issue๐ ), cause I'm not able to find any solution.
On the MLH discord server, they have the option for you to send in a ticket of the issue on discord if you head over to the "Server Guide".
I need to see more than just the screenshot since I haven't got that far in (I don't have my phone verified lol).
No worries, I had created ticket yesterday. It'll be answered may be in a few days, I just wanted to know if I could do anything, cause I'm new to discord too and I see alot of people joining and messaging and I don't have permission๐ .
No worries, Have A Great Day!
No problem. It seems that your issue is resolved now haha
Yes! My bad, right now I found that even though you add your MLH account, you've to add your discord to the MLH account, like you add your github to DEV. And then I closed the ticket myself!๐
I was generally able to hold my composure after being asked to resign. Not an easy thing to do. I am in limbo as I hold my position. Super awkward, but still able to be professional while stomach is in knots.
A win, but not one I want to deal with. ๐
Getting to take a substantial part in launching Hacktoberfest this year ๐
Happy Hacktoberfest!
Everything You Need To Know About Hacktoberfest 2026: AI Belongs to Everyone ๐
I am 3 weeks into my new job as a software engineer.
Got back to posting here regularly after a short break. Feels good to be back to writing and sharing with the DEV community, I missed it :)
Joined DEV this week and moved five of my blog posts over. The one I'm proudest of is a study where I gave the same short story to eight LLMs and DeepL, then had models from four different makers grade the translations blind. The ranking surprised me more than once.
Also Closed zero browser tabs though, so Fayaz is still winning :)
This week I had to read about a hundred comments. In general, I donโt know how it feels, but thanks to everyone who supported me!! ๐๐ There's nothing more to say to me. The report has been submitted! Well, now what, digital detox?
btw, I started writing an article. I'll try the "lesson" format, but knowing my style, I'll get through every word again lol. I've already given up writing it. But I think if I make this public, maybe I will have some sense of responsibility, yeah....
Closed 100+ browser tabs!
I could finally make my peace with them ๐คฃ๐ฅฐ
I feel like I always have 100+
Also completed the following post: ๐ซ
So, We Don't Need to Learn or Use Basic Math / Arithmetic Anymore? ๐
Wrapped up the sprint with 100% of our deliveries and presented at the sprint review. Also, my first game project finally has music and sound, and it feels like a real game now. ๐ฎ
Doing a lot of interesting stuff with Jev
