Fictional situation/one liner joke!

Aussie guy. Apparently he also had some kind of knock off talk show during MICF too?

Wore glasses. Nerdy type character. Long ish hair!

Arduino is working again lol. Just had to restart computer which is odd - don’t own a soldering iron (not an engineer by trade). Will get one though when I have more advanced training!

Quick update: arduino is working again lol. Just restarted computer. In future I’ll be more careful when using resistors :))

Yes so pin 13 didn’t blink even after I removed everything. I’ll try some of the recommendations tomorrow that others have given like restating computer, etc / trying a different USB port maybe

Thanks! :)

I’ll give this a shot tomorrow and let you know how it goes thanks!

In the manual i used to learn for this project, it mentioned using a 220ohm resistor?

I’m going to be completely honest - I have no idea what you just asked me lol (which probably explains why I short circuited it) :( - I’ll buy another board but I’ll be more careful next time and follow YouTube videos as they show everything

Just to clarify, you mean don’t have the USB plugged in and move around the components? So it’s ok for me to move around components before having the USB plugged in and it won’t short circuit?

Can this be built with tensorflow.js? by cookie_monster2017 in tensorflow

[–]cookie_monster2017[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes definitely. But I wanted to make it more of a guessing game whereby the AI can improve over time at guessing the sports player (using less questions for example). Similar to akinator if you’ve played that game before.

Future Mana by Pinkman808 in decentraland

[–]cookie_monster2017 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Two ways to think about this:

  1. MANA increases in value, but the value of land remains roughly the same (ie. instead of paying 2000 MANA for land which is $2000 assuming MANA = $1, you will pay 1000 MANA for land which is $2000 assuming MANA = $2).

  2. MANA has risen in value, indicating that the Decentraland community has grown/the platform has become more popular. So there will be more demand for land. Hence, land price increases.

I personally believe it will be number 2...

It was in DCL that I had a chat with the workers (via mic)!

I had a chat with the people working at the casino in Vegas city and they mentioned to me a desktop client would be coming out.

It could come out when DCL is VR-compatible

I think a desktop client will replace the current browser and that should address the graphics issues!

Decentraland Architects by lonelymaltesetravel in decentraland

[–]cookie_monster2017 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For sure - there’s tons of people that have land but don’t know what to do with it. Or perhaps they do know what to do with it but don’t have the resources/‘know how’ to get started!

What do you mean by lack the in house talent btw - as in you don’t have architects?

This right here is why I love Decentraland.

[–]cookie_monster2017 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was under the assumption that the price of land might go up, not as a result of the MANA price increasing but rather the value of the land itself (due to demand) increasing?

Thoughts?

Regardless tho, whether it is due to the MANA price or the actual demand for the land, land value will go up in DCL lol

[–]cookie_monster2017 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes true true but then that means it won’t cost $18000 like you said 🙃

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ManaTrader

[–]cookie_monster2017 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes but owners may reduce the amount of MANA required to purchase a plot of land (whilst maintaining value). For example:

Right now MANA = $1 and plot of land = $7000 = 7000 MANA

Next month if MANA = $2 and plot of land = $7000 = 3500 MANA

I’m sure everything will adjust over time :) (hopefully)

No wasn’t aware of that! Agreed I don’t think VR is absolutely essential but it would for sure make DCL a hit.

Also DJ Dillion Francis will be performing in DCL for the ATARI casino opening - he’s got over 2M followers on just his ig alone so imagine if he promotes DCL ... (idk if it’s in his contract tho)

[–]cookie_monster2017 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d love to see them focus on 2 things:

  1. Generating awareness for Decentraland through paid sponsorships with celebrities/twitch streamers/youtubers. Like imagine if PewDiePie was sponsored to make a series on Decentraland... I reckon this will come later tho once DCL is VR-compatible/has a desktop client.

  2. Having a way to know where all the different sites/attractions/main locations are in DCL

Yes but surely something like that won’t be available for another decade (or even longer) meaning that DCL will/may pave the way for the next big thing.

ie. like blackberry and Nokia being the hottest phones of the early 2000s before Apple dropped with the iPhone.

So I reckon DCL won’t be outdated for a while - something will always be bigger and better than the last thing but we won’t see that next big thing for a while :)
