11 to be honest, its probably something very easy. Like a bug in that asynchronous recursive function that I'm using.
And yes, you read that right, its not only a function that calls itself it also does so asynchronous. I can probably remove the recursive aspect as its pretty much a forEach loop but I'm actually not sure that would improve readability.

10 alerts are pretty much done now, just need to clean them up a bit.
On the client the alerts have a generic implementation thus for as long as new alerts don't introduce new variables it will display correctly.
Also, alerts now have links inside of them. So, lets say you get an alert about a new character in a RP you are in you get
A character has been made for AOD called Astra
Both AOD and Astra are links, AOD going to the roleplay page and Astra going to the corresponding character sheet

11 turns out fixing both of those problems that where still present with alerts was easier than I thought. This also added a nice whitespace around the bottom of each alert, so even that got fixed.
12 so... about that problem that made php slow.
Turns out it wasn't php at all and instead was the nodejs server that ran out of database connections it could use as for various reasons the function that releases one of the connections back into the pool didn't work properly/was not always executed.
Either way, rewrote it a bit so that database connections are getting prepared and released automatically and repaired the release function so that that hopefully will never happen again.

Have some python3 code that shows "fireworks" on your screen. It needs pygame to run though

14 so... I just discovered that there is an OS that takes the "Everything is a file" to even higher levels and even has files to interact with the network.
If I understand it correctly it means you can write and read to a file to interact with the network instead of needing a language that is able to make requests natively.
So, instead of lets say php's curl_ functions to make http requests you could instead write the correct data to a file in /net/tcp and read it a bit later.
Of course, this means that you need to be able to understand how http works under the hood as its at a much lower level than the curl functions but it does mean you can much more easily write your own curl_ implementation in php. It also opens the door of networking to languages that by default don't have access to network requests but are able to write and read files like lua.
Also, the simpler the protocol the easier it is to use by writing/reading those files. So, maybe something like http may be a pain to implement but there are probably easier systems you could make use of anyway. Especially if that OS caught on I would've suspect someone coming up with a simple way to share data when using those files.

No idea, I was just going on memory leak, because it seems like the same thing, just with connections instead of memory.
