In this case, it means “quickly” or “fast”, or even “while doing something else”.

when you need to quickly create a good status

aII toasters toast toast, but what happens when there are no longer toasters being produced? will their technology simply become obsolete, with humans moving onto bigger, better things? will toast become a distant memory, written in textbooks of the future as foods us simpler generations ate? who's to say! society is constantly moving, changing, evolving, ideas being built upon, improved upon, theories being proven or disproven. are we but a blip on the timeline? sure, our names may not be remembered, but that's not the point. you can make a change. you can make a difference. you can make the world better, even if you don't know yet. and the first step is to go for it. even if you are afraid of failure. going back to the example of toasters, do you know off the top of your head who invented them? no? have you used one? probably. so, even if you don't remember my name, if I was able to help awnser your question, that is enough. if I was able to help you, even in the slightest way, this could push you to continue with scratch and not give up after the program crashes, and maybe one day learn other programming languages and change the world. everything is a cause and effect reaction, new inventions lead to the technology of the future, and even as the generations of the past are slowly forgotten, their influence lives on to this day, affecting how the world eventually turned out and how it will be for generations to come.

and, without toasters, we wouldn't have toast.

You can also go to https://aviateapp.eu.org/user/dynamicsofscratch if you're not making a program that uses Aviate.

If you're using Python:

import requests
status = requests.get('https://aviateapp.eu.org/api/dynamicsofscratch').json()['status']
print(status)

For other languages, like JavaScript, it's very similar.

Components now return 0 if the data isn't found, instead of causing the whole status to not work:

It's better than nothing IMO.

Cool!

ScolderCreations

Just for clarification, statuses containing browser extension references aren’t OK, right?

I assume they aren’t, since we’re mentioning this service on Scratch, and that would be a way to get around the BEUSP policy.

Yes, statuses must follow all Scratch's rules and CG's, including BEsUP. I just added a new section to the dashboard that should clarify things a bit:

Also, is section 8 of the ToU updated? I can't remember if it was always like this: My memory has failed me yet again.
