BANX / Re: Sharedrop eta?
« on: February 28, 2016, 01:54:12 pm »
Sharedrop I think can not be a criteria either for becoming a partner. Assume we would need to give a project that seems like a scam a partner sub if they sharedroped on BTS... and then that scam becomes a reality / public and media outlets write that bitshares has been a partner of it. The criteria should be credibility, reputation and actual involvement in Bitshares ecosystem which is somewhat subjective and should be discussed among forum admins and the wider community.

BANX / Re: Sharedrop eta?

I said it before: Titling Banx as a partner (as happened here) will reflect bad on Bitshares if Banx' will have negative PR itself in the future.
Being a platform for anyone to issue shares on is one thing and I agree that there should not be any limitations there but "partnering" with a business requires is an active process from both sides.

While i love BTS and have a good position my mailing list is almost 19000 people and each mailing costs. So i make reports of 3-4 coins to buy in each month + i mail this out.
Around 16000 open this emails.

Is there demand and is there any way love would be shown to me back? :)
donations are voluntary of course and hard to predict.
The referral program is a neat solution here because it makes your impact objective and pays you accordingly - no need for subjectivity ;)

Technical Support / Easy (?) UI fix to increase voting participation
« on: February 27, 2016, 07:49:51 pm »
What about showing a list of witnesses in the voting section one can vote for instead of having to manually lock them all up and add them to my list? Could that be easily implemented?

It's been suggested that we should report what issues we plan to work on, but this really isn't a simple thing to do reliably. Priorities of issues rapidly change as well as available people to work on them. It's much easier and more reasonable, IMO, to report what was done and what was charged.
I agree. Setting up and publishing an official schedule and keeping it up to date is unnecessary overhead that I wouldn't want to pay for. Regular reports of work done and how the payment was allocated to different tasks/workers is sufficient.
I think a weekly overview would make sense because it would:
... provide accountability
... be positive for the public and shareholder perception of the worker system and this specific worker

Has there been such documentation in the past? ...I think that would make sense for any worker.
Well, our github workflow makes it possible to see what's planned and some idea of who is doing what, although these things never tell the whole story, since few document systems relying on manual entry manage to track reality perfectly. That will be especially true whenever some release needs to get rushed out for a high priority issue. But, FWIW, on the blockchain side of things, this is probably the best documentation of current and near term planned work:

General Discussion / Re: NXT forks BitShares 2.O mojo! goes for scalability
« on: February 25, 2016, 07:43:40 pm »
HI guys. I am new here because I found bitshares in August last year and invested two months ago (almost all of my savings in bts). Bts is one of best projects I ever saw (ex stock exchange employee, now just sniffing and investing in crypto). Must say that community is full of hate and it is the ONLY thing that pulls you down. Here in forum you sound like a bunch of 15 year old guys on a half time, having 2:0 score and arguing was there a penalty possibility in 42nd minute or not. Can you just swallow your pride, engage "not giving a fuck mode" and kick some ass again? Go grab a beer and enjoy this beautiful project. None of you is fault, every single one contributed abnormaly in development and there is so big perspective in this that I really cannot belive with my eyes.
Good luck to you with my hope that you will understand what I am saying here.. You are the best!

General Discussion / Re: London Meetup

I'll be in london at the weekend of the 23/24 of April. Would like to see some of you.

I think a weekly overview over what has been done would make sense because it would:

... provide accountability
... be positive for the public and shareholder perception of the worker system (so you can see what you are getting for your bug and that DPOS works)

I think that would make sense for any worker (posted it to other active workers as well). 

Of course that is not meant as being doubtful of the utility of your work. I have lots of positive first hand experience with it ;)

Technical Support / Re: Migration Questions

Self answering:

Then, are there linux binaries for 0.93c? 

The tar.gz file here https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-0.x/releases contains an executable file ("bitshares" is the gui client).

I absolutely need 0.93c to import my 0.x keys in a 2.x wallet right?

Then, are there linux binaries for 0.93c?

General Discussion / Marketing: Keep to our principles and style

I am having a late night party here and have watched some of this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StMBdBfwn8c&feature=youtu.be
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBlAVeVFWFM

I also listened to this mumble hangout http://bitsharesnews.info/post/138735906198/bitshares-dev-hangout-zero-fees-raw-episode where the idea was discussed to change the name to something that is more likeable / digestable. While I like "proof of contribution" this kind of behavior seems to me like the guy that constantly tries to change his outward style in order to be liked by girls instead of believing in his vision and style.

Of course the worst thing one can do is break the rules and regret it immediately - which is how I perceive Bitshares's approach to broadcasting its self publicly. A failure of this mode of operation though should not lead to the assumption that "doing as people please" is the optimal mode of (PR) operation, although it is an advancement.       
My point is that public perception of value and superiority does not come from doing what is expected but from breaking the rules with the confidence that one is right to do so. That is to love oneself, i.e. liking the fact that one, like anyone ;), is different. 

What I like about Bitshares, Daniel and the whole community is the austrian economics inspired, technically nerdy (while Ethereum, it seems, tends to attract people that are "fashionably nerdy") way to approach system design. What do you like?
 
I suggest we stick to what we are good at and to the vision for blockchain technology we share here.
