I announce that I cease all development and activity in the programming universe indefinitely. My career has reached the turning point I was not expecting for at least another year, leaving me highly off guard and without laid-out plans for this hobby's continuity. I have begun a 5-year residency program in Neurosurgery which is clearly not compatible, time-wise, with programming.
I gave in all my passion for developing, and you gave me back your loyalty and trust, even when I did not deserve that much. Now it is the time for payback. I release all my present and past work as Open Source software, in the hope some talented developer will continue maintaining and expanding my vision of a modern, sleek forum software. The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.
I hereby thank Euan, kawaii, andrewjs18, Ben, Matt, Omar G., effone, Eric J., Devilshakerz, Wildcard, JordanMussi and all the other team members I have had the opportunity to work with when I was a MyBB team member. I thank Tomm M, my mentor, who inspired me to pick up coding with his piece-of-art plugins. And finally, I thank all of you MyBBoost subscribers who have helped me getting through my toughest university years economically.
Yours sincerely, Filippo

MyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue.
SQL Error:
1101 - BLOB/TEXT column 'usernames' can't have a default value
Query:
CREATE TABLE mybb_flyover_settings_data ( uid INT(10) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, usernames TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT '' ) ENGINE=MyISAM CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;
usernames VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL DEFAULT ''
. Now it works again, but when I click "login with steam", I getMyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue.
SQL Error:
1364 - Field 'Steam_settings' doesn't have a default value
Query:
INSERT INTO mybb_flyover_settings_data (Steam, uid) VALUES ('censored-same-as-below', 8) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE Steam = 'censored-same-as-above'
Now my question is: Why would these fields even need a default value? Should they not be filled? I will switch "Steam_settings" to varchar(256) default '', too and edit this post when it changes anything.
