RE: ANNOUNCEMENT: I'm fed up of dealing with the badly programmed steemd, I'm out

in #dawn-network8 years ago (edited)

I have actually witnessed worse software-release fails when it comes to user experience, but then, I used to work for large, multinational companies 8-).

Best of luck with Dawn, may it live long and prosper. Is there any other place besides Discord to get updates?

Sort:  

I am thinking about what to do about that. I will be cancelling my witness server when the bill needs to be paid but I think I will keep the big server, and @faddat is in the process of developing web applications based on Buffalo, a similar architecture to Django, but built on Go, so we will put something together, it would make sense for us to put together a place where we are entirely responsible for it and can make it as good as it can be.

For now my next week's focus will be getting up to speed on how to develop using the Go language, so that I can fully work with the stuff that @faddat is doing, which currently goes over my head a little bit. I think that I have the mental capacities required to build a new architecture for a better design of token ledger, and a deterministic consensus algorithm for regulating things like a voting system and so forth, without the unneccessary complexity in Steem.

I posted some time back some ideas I had for generating graphs to enable a coherent but fragmented consensus in the platform. We have the advantage that we are starting from scratch, and not with a stupid imperative to continue to work on an architecture that has a broken design in its most fundamental parts.

Here's to the future! :)
