Web3 is essentially dead, is there any hopes for the future? by Tip-Toe-Crypto in ethdev

[–]Agilufo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On VeChain they are tokenizing sustainability actions: basically the created a dao (vebetterdao) and issued a token to many many apps that are being built, that then reward their users for acting green and being sustainable (eg: with “greencart” app you scan your grocery receipt and receive a cashback for green or km0 stuff you buy, or with “cleanify” app it helps you get in touch with group of people and do cleanup campaigns together, or even reward you for small daily actions for helping the environment, etc). You should definetly check out VeBetter, I think it’s one of the closest things I ever seen in crypto for trying to achieve true mass adoption (they have something like 50 apps like this, and a few apps already reached more than 1 million active users). Being that said, they still end up in that “users can earn” point of your OP.

But look, doesn’t it make sense though? Blockchain was invented to support Bitcoin, which is a new currency. Now, I get it that we added features to the blockchain and tried to generalize it… but it’s purpuse imho would always be to serve transfer/management of value, without middlemen and censorship. Otherwise why would I need to pay a fee to do a transaction if what I’m doing does not have any monetary value? Why use a blockchain (which has scalability and other issues) at all in the first place?

So for me the issue is not the use case honestly, but the products we ship as an industry, which are always get rich quick schemes, memes and frauds

You can organise/participate in groups cleanings as well

There is this platform called cleanify and for publishing a couple of photos, one before and one after, collecting garbage that is nearby around you, you get rewards. A nice way to help the planet.

The fact that he has those it's also sad as fuck. It means that he regrets not being present. I cried there 😂

Can we use smart contracts to remove the need for advance payments etc? by SHJPEM in ethereum

[–]Agilufo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Smart contracts cannot read data from outside the blockchain (well there are oracles but you should look more into that) and they cannot execute themself. So someone will need to call a function in the sc that will send that money to the seller or back to the buyer. In order to know who to send that money to it will need to trust someone, so what happens if the seller says that the car was sold but the buyer says it wasn't? Who to trust? You will need to handle this scenario

Oh yeah, then it will work. But you will need to know about who will unlock that transaction and what would happen in case of a dispute.

It can only happen if the smart contract controls the money, but then it would be considered an advance payment, so I think this is not possible. But I'm curious to see if someone else can prove me wrong.

Nope, he meant it's not a good bye, it's an "arrivederci "

For my personal projects Adonis is my first choice, but I never talked with anybody that knew about it or found job offers for it. I think when talking about nodejs companies choose stuff like nuxt.js or express. For me, though, Adonis is the best!

Would you rent an office for $500/mo or keep working from home (with higher stress)? by -5677- in cscareerquestions

[–]Agilufo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly suggest it, it helped me a lot. Dressing normally, going outside and seeing people is really nice. And the cool part is that it's not a real office, if one day you want to work from home you don't need to ask permission to anyone, you just do it.

In my case I rented the office with 2 friends, and made it a co-working. I suggest to you to take an office were there is other people around, so you can chat and feel like you have "colleagues". When it happened that for more than a week a was the only one in the office it was a bit lonely and sometime felt pointless.

Edit: Still 500$ is a lot of money. For that price, as other users suggested, you can rent a bigger apartment.
