RE: [Proposal] Add Inflation Funding Source to the Steem Proposal System

in #proposal6 years ago

FWIW, the testing of the actual SPS in its entirety should not be related to me or this proposal.

I can verify my code alterations completely independent of the actual SPS system, as the code is ultimately sending funds to a user account in the form of SBD.

But I agree, it would be great to have more clarity about what level of testing and verification has been performed to date on the SPS system.

Totally agree. A lot of my comment is really that the stuff that makes me on the fence about the HF is far and away separate from the actual codebase itself. I think that simply because your companion code is something that makes the overall SPS more viable, that apart from straight code testing we have to spend a bit of time thinking about how the way things work in our current ecosystem and how it could fuck up all the good things that come with this before we decide to drop it and then find out accidentally after funding something shitty or disbursing everything to the wind because whoopsie doodles didn't think of that. Steem has proved time and again that people are both formulaic and incredibly hard to predict and while we can't mitigate all of that at code level, I mostly hope we can say, "if x happens, then y becomes an option".
