Arctic Code Vault Contributor

[Nyykol]

Can I still get the Arctic Code Vault Contributor achievement at 2022 or rn?

[Schweinepriester]

Unfortunately no, as the deadline was in the past.

https://archiveprogram.github.com/arctic-vault/ defines it:

The 02/02/2020 snapshot archived in the GitHub Arctic Code Vault swept up every active public GitHub repository. It included every repo with any commits between the announcement at GitHub Universe on November 13th and 02/02/2020; every repo with at least 1 star and any commits from the year before the snapshot; and all repos with at least 250 stars. (It also included gh-pages for those repositories.) The snapshot consists of the HEAD of the default branch of each repository, minus any binaries larger than 100KB in size. (Repos with 250+ stars retained their binaries.)

[Schweinepriester]

Yes, as far as I know (and official documentation says).

[Nyykol]

ok

[farkon00]

So the only achievement I can get is only "GitHub Sponsor"?

Not anymore. Now i think you already may have one. And if you dont, you can earn one of new ones(added 9.06.2022). Simplest way to get one of them is making and merging pull request.

So answering this will give a badge?

How can I get Galaxy Brain?

[mMarzeta]

I'm going to check it. This is basically my second answer to the discussion. If a badge will appear on my profile then it works.

[mMarzeta]

Okey, I haven't received the badge. Probably it's updated periodically with some reasonable frequency like once in a week or so.

I think your comment must be picked as answer by author.

@muhammadqazi , to get the Galaxy Brain achievement badge:

• Participate in Github Discussions (like this one) and get 2 of your answers being 'Marked as answer' by the person asking the question.
• You can unlock different tiers of the Galaxy Brain badge (bronze, silver, gold) as well - depending on how many answered discussions you have.
