RE: Blockchain Update 3: Hardfork 20 and Release 19.4 – AppBase, StatsD, and RocksDB
I am happy to hear that folks you listen to are discussing simplifying curation.
As to how SOC can deal with bots, in his talk in Korea @ned (whom I believe would not make idle speculations on the matter) stated that oracles are able to ascertain whether an account is A) a human person, and B) even a unique user. Communities intent on being bot free can rely on such oracles to exclude bots and socks.
The actual detection of bots is complex, and I don't pretend to grasp the details. If @ned did not misspeak (and I did not misunderstand), and can be relied on, then oracles make it possible for communities to exclude bots.
Yes, Oracles (used with SMTs) will be one way of dealing with this problem. I am in support of those changes.
There is coming a fruit of diligent nurturing of principle in action that I greatly anticipate. Good people will join their ilk in doing good.
Nothing will more encourage those whose actions heretofore have neglected beneficence to undertake it, and I can scarcely comprehend the potential of such mutual action to effect felicitous society.
Thanks for your personal dedication and work to that end.
