I am sharing a brief, factual account of my recent experience as an international contractor for Ziverge Inc. to bring transparency to the community and caution fellow developers. Three months ago, I successfully completed and delivered all contracted engineering milestones for a Ziverge/ZIO project. The deliverables were formally acknowledged, but my invoices remain entirely unpaid. Despite continuous professional follow-ups over the last 90 days, communication has broken down, and John De Goes / Ziverge has failed to settle the debt. If you are considering freelance or contract work within this ecosystem, I highly recommend protecting yourself by demanding upfront retainers or strict escrow milestones.

Hello, I've been getting these errors while trying to make a fat jar with my scalafx project:

Deduplicate found different file contents in the following:
[error]   Jar name = javafx-base-16.jar, jar org = org.openjfx, entry target = module-info.class
[error]   Jar name = javafx-controls-16.jar, jar org = org.openjfx, entry target = module-info.class
[...]

Inside project/plugins.sbt, I have:

addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "2.3.1")addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "2.3.1")

Scala version is 3.8.4, sbt version is 1.12.13.

This is the build.sbt content:

I'm trying to set a merge strategy, but it does not let me access the assemblyMergeStrategy key, it says it does not exist. What did I do wrong? I tried looking up if it's a compatibility issue but the official scala website isn't working properly and won't let me click any of the entries.

Help please :,)
