[LEARN & EARN - Week #17] What did you learn in the last couple of days? **2 STEEM BOUNTY**

in #learnandearn5 years ago (edited)

WOOOW, we have a record-breaking 14 participants!! That's just soo cool. I'll really have to start looking for some sponsors to increase the prize pool - that's why it'd be amazing if we could start using our own #learnandearn tag. More details why are in the post :)


One thing a day, keep stupidity away :) I've lately started to write morning journal similar to how Tim Ferris does. But I've added one more column:

What did I learn yesterday?

It quickly became my favorite thing to write down in the morning. Just couple of words. Usually between 3-6. Just keywords. The realization that I'm waking up smarter than yesterday just totally boosts the energy for the next day.

Last week entries from my personal journal

  • Monday - how to python unit tests in Odoo
  • Tuesday - potato mash can be faked with polenta
  • Wednesday - cherry-picking doesn't always leave a special commit
  • Thursday - There are 2 places in Australia where most skiers go
  • Friday - Austrian "skiwasser"

STEEM BOUNTY (2 STEEM )

I want YOU to do the same! And because I know that we're all driven by the number in our STEEM wallet, I'm adding a tiny STEEM Bounty on this post. There are three ways how to get the bounty:

  • UPPER (20%) - To get into the upper tier, write a post with your submission. The only thing the post has to have is to use the picture above (my notebook with week number) as the title picture and [Learn & Earn] in the title. Also, if you guys could use #learnandearn tag, it would be amazing as it would give us more leverage trying to get some bigger sponsorship :)
  • MEDIUM (15%) - Comment and write what have you learned on each day of this or last week
  • LOWER (10%) - If you've just randomly came over, comment just 3 random things you've lately learned and you will get some cut as well

Whale users? Anyone?

I thought about fourth REAL LEARNERS' bounty size which would require participants to daily fill in the Google spreadsheet! I could take care of writing the script to check if people are not cheating. But to make people come back daily, the bounty needs to be higher than 1 STEEM. If some whale users read & like this idea, just lemme know if you could donate couple of STEEM for the cause to increase bounty and get the REAL LEARNERS' division going :)

#learnandearn tag :)

Please, I don't want to push anyone to anything, but if everyone who's publishing separate posts (upper tier) could start using our own tag, it'd be just amazing. I'm trying to land you guys some bigger bounty rewards and our own tag would be for sure something I could point to (to prove Learn & Earn has real userbase). It's for you guys :)

Thanks to @blockbrothers!

Wow :O We're really starting to get support from @blockbrothers every week :) It's really nice at it helps me running this contest just tiny bit above the "minus" level. Thanks guys! These guys are also a witness and if you want to show them love & thanks for supporting LEARN & EARN, vote for them HERE.

Learners' table

Not much changed. Champs are dominant :) But like last week, we again broke the record for the most participants -14 people! :)) Is it cuz STEEM value rose? Learn and Earn while it's cheap people! :)) Thx for entering to everyone!

I'll be untagging people (removing @ sign) after two weeks of inactivity so that they don't get unnecessary notifications.

Previous weeks can be found here:

You'll be surprised how addictive this habbit is :) The great feeling of being smarter then couple of days ago is just too good to resist :) It doesn't take even 3 minutes really! Join us and see yourself!

Can't wait to read the stuff you learned this week :) Matko.

Hello there! This week my entry is a bit more political than usual, I even tend to stay away from politics in this network. I hope I don't annoy too many folks with this. 😛

https://steemit.com/challenge/@trincowski/what-have-i-learnt-last-week-or-learn-and-earn-initiative-week-17

Glad I checked my mentions tonight :0)
Okay, ...here we go.

While I was writing my entry for the InformationFinding Championship (@ifc), I learned that there were only two languages with a 't' that I've ever heard of. Turkish and Tamil, all others were completely new to me.

I also learned that pushing myself to do things, even when I absolutely don't feel like it, can be really rewarding. I didn't feel like going to my friend's birthday dinner on Saturday, but I forced myself to go - I had to get out of the house for a change - and it was actually quite fun :0)

Another thing I learned is that I need to be more clear in my communication here on SteemIt, especially with other non-native speakers. When both parties don't have English as their mother tongue, a misunderstanding is always lurking around the corner :0/

Hmm I'm actually not famililar with Tamil at all :D Soo for me, I know only about one T language :D and thanks for understanding us, non-native speakers haha :D

HmmmThis @ifc thing looks interesting indeed..

Hey matkodurko, I noticed you tagged the @ifc and I'm one of the people who run the contest and just thought I'd offer to answer any questions if you have any! Sounds like you're doing your own contest that's sort of similar and it looks like you're getting a good turnout! That's awesome. :) I wish you luck in your journey!

I love contests.. any link to a post that explains yours??

Word. :) And sure. I'll grab you a link for the rules and also one for the most current round which just started earlier today. If you love contests I have a feeling you'll probably enjoy ours as I've received a lot of feedback from the players and a bunch of them seem to be having a lot of fun. We'd love to have you join us as well if you're interested!

Here's a link to the rules.
https://steemit.com/contest/@ifc/rules-for-season-2-of-the-ifc

And here's the most recent round.
https://steemit.com/contest/@ifc/ifc-season-2-round-8-power-spot

If you have any questions please feel free to ask and I'll do my best to help!

I'm sorry, @apolymask, for missing a round again...I have been feeling so lazy this last week... It's no excuse, I know... lol

It's not that hard to be understanding towards non-native speakers, since I am one of them, lol

More clear, Thats something I need too do to

I have also recently discovered the communication thing with my work the team in Sri Lanka, as well. Even when someone says yes yes ask them to put what you said into their own words and then figure out what they meant from that..

my latest...

a bit of this and that

https://steemit.com/learnandearn/@darrenfj/learn-and-earn-update

@dreemsteem @xcountytravelers tagging cause more people = more learning = more more

Did you just call me dumb?

smarter than me... I took years to get into steem..

Okay - let's see if my brain is working - going backward...
Today= Sunday: I learned that airlines have emeritus status - always thought that was just for academia.
Saturday: I learned that South West Airline is going to have new Uniforms.
Friday: I learned that there is finally a Thai restaurant in our town and it is best for takeout.
Thursday: I learned that there is a movement against Charter schools out there and I think that is really sad.
Wednesday: I learned that it is fairly easy for me without a car - I loaned mine out for several days. I can walk to many places. (still like to have one and need one for greater mobility)
Tuesday: What the heck did I learn that day? Maybe set up recur post?
Monday: Now, we are pushing it. That is a long time ago. went through my search history - ha! I learned that Yusuf Cat Stevens is still performing and that I still like his music.

Hmmm what do you mean with recur post? Oh and the car is pain in the ass if you really live only locally...I could easily buy a car but just taking care of all the insurance and parking spot etc...fuck it really :) Im still riding a bike to work everyday :D Will probably buy a car first when I'll have a family or something :D

Btw I like that you're becoming a regular here (again) :D

😄 I have been spreading out a bit - was too much only reading Freewrites. Well, now, I am not reading that many but get to play a bit more in the big world of STeem.

Recur post is a service where you can upload social media posts (I believe up to 250 for the free version), set a schedule and they will post. When all have gone up, it starts in the beginning again. for each post you can set a date to stop recycling - i.e. if you advertise a certain event or something dated.
As to the car - sadly, public transportation is not very good in San Diego and riding a bike is becoming increasingly more dangerous. A car is pretty much a necessity here...

i learned about #learnandearn and maybe it is enough for now :D
not sure i could go back every day last week to think about what i learned, but maybe i will try for the next week.
or should this post be for the future week? probably not.

you know, it doesn't really matter..you can post 3 random things...if you aim for higher tiers and need monday to friday, you can do both..last week or come later this week and write about this one :)

wanted to edit my comment but you already replied to it :D
i just learned that song Macarena is about a girl that cheated on her boyfriend with 2 friends. even speculating that out of town means that he was drafted to army, but i think it is a stretch.
Well my english was probably not that great at the time but, need to put more attention to the lyrics :D

Hah np :D Had no idea bao0ut macarena thing :D I just know how to dance it hahah :D thxx for entering :) Will upvote the main comment of yours.

Yikes! I'm late. The bounty says 3 more hours. I am also random and disorganized

  1. Do not leave bounties to the last minute.
  2. Steem is 3 years old today.
  3. The time tasteem weekly points reset is not when the dapps says it is. It has not reset yet, so I do not know the time it will be. maybe I will tell you next week.

Hah u r also lucky I'm sitting on my pc right now :D

Whew! This is my lucky middle of the night!

@knircky I see you just tried to upvote the last week's post :/ it was already post-payout couple of minutes :/ But don't be sad, you can always upvote this new one haha :D

They can also comment on that post and say "$rewarding 100%" on a post that already paid out and it will generate a comment that the author gets the rewards from and then upvote it (: They have to give their posting key to the $rewarding platform first but it's really great man (:
