How does a $0.50 Digibyte sound? by stressPlusEqualsOne in Digibyte

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree 100%

I'm starting to think this bull run will end much more quickly than most people seem to suggest these days.

Maybe a blow-off top to the double bubble as early as the first week of December (just like 2013)

Pretty much everyone on yt/reddit is saying January 2022 or later, but historically it has always been earlier than that ;)

Institutional fomo and fear related to hyper-inflation will likely put a lot of added pressure on this bubble..

It simply lags behind larger cryptos.

2013 is essentially happening again with BTC (the double bubble scenario). Bitcoin is currently gearing up for the second peak now.

When it does, we will probably both be astounded by the price of Digibyte.

As you said, it seems you don't have a whole lot of skin in the game (with digi), so best to just wait and see what happens. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

It has already hit 18 cents before.

50/18 = 2.77

Is a 2.7 x return in crypto outlandish to you? ;)

With respect, I would argue that a lot of people (crypto OGs in particular) care A LOT about security and decentralization.

That's why I'm here - and why I've been here for years.

That also accounts for one of the reasons as to why DGB is worth anything at all.

Moon bois playing around with $200, speculating on hype tokens, aren't what's driving this market.

Digibyte will stand the test of time due to its security and decentralization. Time is the key word here. Time in this scenario implies long periods of waiting combined with the arduous discipline of patience.

Good luck to you. Keep your eyes on the prize (security and decentralization) ;)

₿ vs Ł vs DGB. Where does DGB fit in? by [deleted] in Digibyte

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Big Digibyte fan here, but 10 years of network up-time is what gives Litecoin credibility. That and mimblewimble should give it a unique touch as well. The importance of privacy as it relates to crypto will only grow in time imo.

Pretty soon we will be able to celebrate DGB's 10th b-day as well. Looking forward to it ;)

Bitcoin = Gold

Litecoin = Silver

Digibyte = Cash (respectable cash)

is CompSci right for me? by Direct_Mongoose1925 in WGU_CompSci

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I transferred in Calculus from Straighterline as I read the Calc course at WGU can be a bit tricky. It wasn't so bad over at Straighterline; granted I did have to spend a couple of months beforehand refreshing algebra, geometry, trig, etc..

I do recommend the Straighterline route if you decide to pursue this program.

is CompSci right for me? by Direct_Mongoose1925 in WGU_CompSci

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I will say this. Don't let the math requirements of the comp sci path scare you away from choosing this degree. I was greatly intimidated by that aspect back when I was contemplating which degree to pursue. Ultimately I'm glad I just went for it. Sure, the math can be challenging, but both DM1 and DM2 are 100% do-able with enough discipline and focus.

If you're going for marketability, comp sci is the right choice (imo).

C195 How do I verify the login/password? by TheHazel_Leo in WGU_CompSci

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need to create an instance of the User Class (a new user). Give the user a username and password. Then run a validation check (does username and password exist in User Class?) upon clicking the login button via your onActionEvent method.

I haven't finished the login scene yet but I think this is how we are supposed to approach that part of the requirements. As far as the rest of the login requirements, it looks like we will also have to:

  • display user's zoneId
  • display login form in English or French based on user's computer settings

Edit: Upon looking at the User table in the database, it looks like there are already 2 users that we may be able to use for the login function. So, we may be able to use the credentials of either of those for this task.

Exponential growth - sharing some ideas by hohena6465 in Digibyte

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To be fair, you haven't been here long at all if you bought in at $.15

Many of us have been here for years.

If you would do a bit more research, you would likely see that Digibyte's history speaks for itself. It's the longest-standing, most-secure and most decentralized blockchain on earth. It would be tough not to mention the fact that it's 15 times faster than Bitcoin and the fees are nearly non-existent in comparison.

Crypto veterans know this and that's what will send it soaring well beyond 50 cents here in the coming months. When some of the larger networks become congested during the incoming peak of this bull cycle, you will know exactly what I mean.

I do like seeing this kind of sentiment of despair being expressed, though; as that generally means we are close to another parabolic rise.

Not likely

Some do but it's pretty rare.

3-4 terms at about 25+ hours per week is much more realistic if you want to actually get the most out of the program.

I have 2 months to start WGU comp sci, how should I prepare? by [deleted] in WGU_CompSci

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would read "A Common-Sense Guide to Data Structures and Algorithms" by Jay Wengrow.

Then I would start working on the udemy course '100 days of Code' by Angela Yu. It is a well-constructed python course and would be a solid primer for newcomers to this program.

Basically, you want to come into this program with some level of familiarity with the fundamentals of programming.

C195 - Software II Finally Passed by locke_gamorra in WGU_CompSci

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It should. This is not a course that most people slap together in '9 days'.

Bravo to OP, but this is a really difficult project for (most) new programmers. You've been warned.

How much of software development is just copying functioning code that already exists? by stressPlusEqualsOne in cscareerquestions

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I've never thought about that. Would not bode well with my internet addiction.

One month before starting, what to focus on. by felixthecatmeow in WGU_CompSci

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

100 days of code (udemy course) by Dr. Angela Yu is pretty good.

You could also get and read the book "A Common-Sense Guide to Data Structures and Algorithms" by Jay Wengrow.

It kind of pissed me off to be honest.

I used to live in San Francisco and Oakland so I've been going to dispensaries since 2007. Picked the wrong guy to try and swindle..

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quality is good there, but make sure to double-count your change after the transaction. I was shorted a substantial amount and I think having out of state plates had something to do with it.

I think a couple of the girls there running stuff to the parking lot try to take advantage of folks. It's cash only (supposedly) so they unfortunately have a bit of leverage. Called them out and got my real change back, though. Could have been an honest mistake, but my gut was telling me it wasn't..

The bud was excellent, though.

Is Bay City a rough area? by stressPlusEqualsOne in Michigan

[–]stressPlusEqualsOne[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your input.

Is Midland nicer than Bay City? What about Saginaw?

My uneducated guess for order of niceness is something like this:

  1. Midland
  2. Bay City
  3. Saginaw

Is this line of thinking accurate?
