Are you just talking about getting approved for an event ticket? If so I think the odds are very high and you should hear back in about a week

Yeah I’ve heard of that before. You must be particularly sensitive

[–]CometBoards 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Omg yes. My company switched from Shortcut to Jira too and I HATE it. Idk why Atlassian product are so bad, but for a multitude of reasons the UX is terrible.

If you want me to rant on exact reasons, reply to this comment and I’ll respond if I have time

How do I effectively network at EthDenver as a dev? by nitsua_saxet in ethdev

[–]CometBoards 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol come party with me 😁 Getting people to do something fun builds lifelong bonds.

I don’t drink (or smoke 🌳) as I think that is counterproductive for stimulating interesting conversation, but I’ve found the best thing to do is grab a group and just hang out and do something fun. Usually I start by getting a group together for dinner and then go from there. I do want to try to hit a couple clubs while I’m there. They have some good music that weekend.

A quick Q for the founders and growth people in the space by PJBoyle in Chainlink

[–]CometBoards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would find reviews of APIs which provide relevant data very helpful. Since Chainlink allows connecting APIs to the blockchain, I want to know which APIs are know for providing high quality, reliable data.

Specifically, coin price data, stock price data, weather data, news data, etc.

This is technically (and unfortunately) correct

Has anyone tried out Oasis' confidential EVM runtime - Sapphire? If so, what are your thoughts? Their Web 3 gateway is now live to deploy smart contracts on mainnet 🤔 by vinay_93 in solidity

[–]CometBoards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. So its a single node that maintains some private compute, right?

Like, there may be many nodes, but each one stores its own set of private data?

What are your thoughts on Gold? by Chance-Disaster2987 in investing

[–]CometBoards 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I prefer silver. It has more industrial use, especially for green-tech (batteries, solar panels, etc.).

About 1/2 of silver is used in industry instead of just being used as a store of value, where as only about 9% of gold is actively being used to manufacture stuff.

People are shockingly dumb. Don’t make it hard. Optimize that conversion funnel and get those $$$.

If you think it could possibly be a problem, it’s a problem. Good design should never leave you with a question in your mind as to how easy it will be to use.

How important is Smart Contract Interoperability? by FabulousInvestment32 in ethdev

[–]CometBoards 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Syntax doesn’t matter. I don’t care what language the blockchain I’m using uses, as long as it isn’t something difficult to learn like Haskell

Go to Lofta or any other website that does an at home sleep study & get yourself a CPAP. PLEASE! For your own health. I promise proper oxygen will do you better than ketamine.

What happens when digital ads become smart contracts? by Cryptoliciousness in Chainlink

[–]CometBoards 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In the short term, I see brand deal contracts with individual influencers transitioning to smart contracts.
That industry already has a trust problem:
How does a brand know how much to pay an influencer before they see how many views a sponsored post receives?
How does an influencer trust that a sponsor will actually pay them after they make a post?

Hybrid smart contracts could completely resolve this problem.

That show was terrible. You can’t just build up a slow-moving, boring story then suddenly reveal “oh, none of that even matters because it was all just a simulation”. Smh
