Hello friends So today a friend of mine on the KCD Discord is named Rupert.I'm not sure. I'm pretty sure that's how you say their name. But I createdtheir very first poll request for open source. I wasn't aware it's thefirst poll request but they did a great job.And it was for the KCD Discord bond. And so the discord has a lot of coolthings you can do with it and one of them is they're a bunch of commandsthat you can give. One of those commands is the thanks command where youcan give somebody extra kudos to say thank you and we'll record.The that in a thanks channel so you can look at and see all the peoplewho've received gratitude and who've given gratitude and then it will logthat in a github gist. That's our storage mechanism for this bot. And andactually, I think this is the only thing that requires storage that we havebut um, it's ends up being just this giant JSON object.And so we've had this for a while Marco built it initially and it was coolbecause you could say thanks ranked top and it would give you the top.10people who'd received the most thanks. But I wanted to also have a rank forthe people who give the most gratitude as well because I think it's a niceto to have that.So he Rupert made the a change to also allow you to say thanks gratituderanked top and that would give you the the top 10 most grateful people inthe server. And it was just kind of a way to recognize people who aremaking our community special and and grateful thankful.And,Yeah, so I just kind of wanted to talk about that just a little bit andsay, hey, you know gratitude is important and it's helpful and in fosteringa community that I want to be a part of and hopefully you do as well. Andby giving a just the little bit more recognition for people who aregrateful, but also the people who are being thanked, so the people who aredoing helpful things.I think goes a long way to making people more encouraged to continue to dohelpful and,And good things and and also to be more grateful. So andgratitude has been scientifically proven to improve people's overallhappiness. So if you're a grateful person, you're happier. So go begrateful today, and if you're a member of the KCD discord, then go saythanks to somebody using the Thanks command.And if you're not then joined because it's a cool place to hang out. Allright. I hope you have an awesome day and we'll talk to you later.
