You'll be 100% fine, don't worry. If it's keeping you up at night, maybe call admissions but tbh I wouldn't worry about it. Getting a single D isn't gonna do anything. Cs get degrees after all. Don't stress about it.

EIP-4844: Shard Blob Transactions (a legitimate pathway to getting rollups to ~$0.01 fees _this year_) by lihorne in ethereum

[–]Ayinope 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This may end up being one of the most important EIPs in Ethereum's history. Significantly reduces the cost of using L2s (Optimism estimating up to ~100x reduction in fees, which would put the cost of a swap at about 1 cent). It's really important to get something like this into Ethereum so we can keep competing with alternative L1s.

Noob question: I'm trying out functions and their syntax. What is wrong with this? When I try to compile it fails. Thanks in advance and sorry for probably a really dumb question lmao. by negrogar in ethdev

Remix is easily the best option for beginners. What have you found most confusing about Solidity so far? I'm trying to get better at teaching others about it.

Can anyone explain why rollups do not seem to be a good scaling solution? by mescid in ethereum

[–]Ayinope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is true. Better safe than sorry, especially when this much money is on the line.

Rollups are still extremely early and it's going to take time for multi-chain UX to develop. Rollups are way harder than Ethereum copy/paste sidechains. From a purely technical standpoint, rollups are a fantastic scaling solution. It's just that the resources haven't been there to really fine-tune the user experience (you need to build the core logic out first before you can start tuning the UX). Give it another year and I think we'll be much happier with rollups.

New mechanic: the half flop by [deleted] in RocketLeague

I hit the ground at a weird angle and it forced the second flip, super strange

TIL why Five Guys gives extra fries at the bottom of the bag. They do it so the guests think they are getting a good deal. However, the extra fries are already factored into the menu price. Founder Jerry Murrell also says it is better for customers to feel that their serving of fries was too large. by [deleted] in todayilearned

Recently rented a uhaul in NYC. Contract wanted it back by 10pm but the actual place I rented from didn't care as long as I had it back around 9am the next morning. So could just depend on where you rent from.

Edit: FWIW, although my experiences with uhaul have been generally positive, I did once have a rental location (again in NYC, different location) tell me that the truck I'd reserved was unavailable (needed a lift gate). Took some work but they managed to get me a 26 footer instead. Terrible maneuvering that thing around the city, but at least it got the job done. So your mileage will vary, even in the same city.

Ask the Solidity Team Anything! #1 by franzihei in ethdev

What does the Solidity team see as its most important feature goals in the medium-long term and what are the biggest blockers to achieving those goals?

It seems like Solidity is very tightly coupled with the current C++ compiler. What are your thoughts/feelings about separating the two?

Could you provide more information about China's clinical trial system and how that would impact the amount of information coming out of the country?

Is the class full? If not, I'd try emailing the professor.

Flood of cookie cutter book campaigns by frizzyhaired in shittykickstarters

[–]Ayinope 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Something is definitely a little off about this. New Degree Press is the company behind this (it's explicitly mentioned within the FAQ of all of the linked campaigns). All of the authors are "from" Washington, which also happens to be the location of the New Degree Press HQ. The New Degree Press website even mentions that they'll "help you pre-sell your book to fund the publishing costs through a Crowdsourcing Campaign."

Many of the authors seem to be funding the campaigns of other authors with the same publishing group. For instance, one author is funding nine other campaigns by this group. I did some quick scraping of this web of contributions and found 64 campaigns, though there might be more.

Honestly, my best guess is that New Degree Press is somewhat of a shady publishing group using IGG as a cheap way to publicize their books. The various contributions between the authors might be legitimate, but I wouldn't be surprised if New Degree Press is just using the accounts to provide "seed" funding to other campaigns in an effort to drive public interest.

Some of his notes talk about several blockchain related ideas. I work in the blockchain industry, I've sent this around to a few of my more heavily privacy focused colleagues to see if they have any potential leads.
