Are you Jewish?
Have you coded in Solidity at all and if so, any plus/minuses that stand out to you for EOS?
Starting out with Solidity to practice making smart contracts, but am curious about other platforms.
How much LINK do you hold?
JVM support?
I'm researching gossip protocols and there are one or two cool ones around. Would like to push the devs in the right direction and show them what on-chain VM's are out there.
When can I get some unreal 4 plugins so I can make game dapps using the blockchain :P
have you tried trading with insider knowledge? since it's not punishable or anything. I mean anytime news is about to be announced do you load up?
unironically this
No sir
>Have you coded in Solidity at all and if so, any plus/minuses that stand out to you for EOS?
Very little. I don't like Solidity for many reasons, some of which were summarized by HN in pic related. But in any case, I'm openly anti-ETH since the DAO, but I'd consider coding on RSK which also uses Solidity, but right now I love EOS ecosystem.
>Starting out with Solidity to practice making smart contracts, but am curious about other platforms.
Solidity is definitely a very good choice to start with cause they have a lot of tooling and documentation, while EOS is right now very fast moving and undocumented.
imagine falling for this larp
>How much LINK do you hold?
0
>JVM support?
WASM is the future™ sir. No one is working on JVM support for EOSIO at the moment
never :P
No, cause I don't have access to sensitive news. I'm not on B1's payroll or anything like that
Thank you for the info!
I have heard Solidity has issues, but after reading the attached text, have a better understanding.
Solidity is my choice given for the documentation reason. Nice to hear that I can transfer Solidity skills to RSK. Having ever changing rules is a bit of a pain, but understandable for EOS given it's relatively newness.
With the EOS ecosystem, what makes you love it? After getting a hand on Solidity in the next 1-6 months, EOS might be good to look at.
>never :P
DAMN YOU!!!
I was reading that Java might be losing support by 2020, so it's a dead language walking. Android at least is shifting to Kotlin IIRC.
Not a larp unless you believes that there's only one person on Jow Forums. If so, one hell of a larp.
>imagine falling for this larp
Ah fuck, hes not an EOS dev then? Pack it up guys. We've been had.
thankyouOP
What made you chose EOS? And what do you think about the Thiel investment into b1?
He picked EOS because nothing else really works yet.
>With the EOS ecosystem, what makes you love it?
I think I mostly like how young it is and the growth potential. BlockOne is moving fast, C++ is fun, WASM is great to know and play with, the design is more modern (IMO) cause it allows accounts independent of keypairs, a layer of permissions with nice multisig integration, multi index databases, it allows the devs to choose what they pay for and what the user pays for, it's actually performant, it allows all sorts of low-level clever optimisations to save costs, there is quite a bit of demand and growing, and it already integrates well with many tech (example EOS project github.com
Also hackathons and remote jobs are easy to find, but maybe Solidity has similar stuff.
opinion on vechain and proof of authority? is it a chink scam?
how much will btc be worth in 2020?
thanks goyim
Thiel is a scammer so I don't care about him (pic related.) BlockOne has been great so far, so I trust they'll be able to spearhead EOS into the spotlight and allow me to make money doing what I love
VeChain is a scam and sold it all in Q1 cause they were faking partnerships with Oxford and overplaying shitty partnerships with PwC and BMW. Also I checked their mainnet recently and it's just an ETH fork so I'm not touching that
I don't know how BTC will be worth, but Bitcoin is GOAT, and I'll hold BTC 4ever
I'd be surprised if Thiel was a scammer and had a hand to play in stuff like pic related. Perhaps he did have a vision with paypal before reality struck. I'm sure once you have boards of directors on board along with shareholders etc that inevitably corrupt virtually any multinational company as big as paypal. From what I've looked into he seems a fairly based libertarian, whom probably shares a similar vision to Larimer.
Is being a pedophile a requirement to be associated with EOS? Pic related.
Maybe I'm too harsh on him; I don't follow him much. But yeah, I'm afraid I don't know much about the Thiel partnership besides skimming some articles
I think he left or something
Thoughts on evolution os/evo?
He's still running block one isn't he?
I think they haven't launched yet, have they? There's so many EOS chains launching; hard to keep up with chains that are not mainnet. Telos seemed good too
I don't think he ever "ran" block one. Brendan Blumer has always been the CEO and Dan the CTO. He was some marketing guy or whatever; I don't really know, I just know he left when controversies started coming up, but he's still coming at hackathons sometimes so not sure. I don't care too much about the drama
i'm an eth maximalist, solidity "developer" and anti-eos, but you're one voice of reason for a legitimate alternative OP. in the end competition will result in the best platform, whichever it is. godspeed
Why do people buy this scammy shit?
you invest in Veshit you invest in the fat fuck CREAM./ They're a joke
I'd say good luck but I hate Ethereum so no good luck for you user. So much for voice of reason haha. I don't mind if Bitcoin wins the smart contract shitshow; Bitcoin is good. EOS is fun but not amazing
>whichever it is. godspeed
EOS stomps ETH right now. ETH needs another 2 years before it can even kind of compete.
I don't know; I wish they stopped buying because I'm waiting for it to hit $2 to buy more
I’m impressed by your ability to type with one hand and have a little boy in the other
Solidity is trash, but Ethereum will transition to a WebAssembly eventually. What is the state of WebAssembly support in the EOS project?
No they haven’t. That’s what’s confusing about eos. Are there really going to be a million hard forks and then basically all these competing open societies that all of us are going to get access to for just holding eos? I look at the sheer number of airdrops I’ve already received and it makes me think eos has to be criminally undervalued. Shouldn’t you guys do marketing other than “eth killer”? This thing feels so much bigger than that to me.
They fully support WASM and they have C++ bindings for smart contracts development
I don't think it's really confusing; they're just other blockchains based on EOSIO. There are quite a few blockchains based on Ethereum codebase, but now some are launching using EOSIO software. They don't have to have anything to do with BlockOne or EOS mainnet or even have EOS in their name. It's just a good blockchain software that anyone can tweak and launch a chain if they think they can provide something worthwhile (or just launch private blockchain for corps)
The nice thing is that EOSIO has inter-blockchain communication almost ready, so it'll be easy for different EOSIO-based blockchains to communicate between each other, and decentralized exchanges will be great
in any case, I wasn't talking about Java but the JVM. Dozens of languages run on it.
That's a major win for EOS desu, will give it a go.
I have a question. Why are you such a fucking faggot?
Sorry
Please answer this, OP!
No I understand the part about why it works but what I’m asking I guess is why is it only marketed as “eth killer” when it feels like something so much bigger than that to me?
What do you think about EOS repackaging a shit consensus like PoS/PoW instead of finding alternative mechanisms like DAG/Hashgraph/Obelisk
How do you expect to compete with platforms that function over protocols other than TCP/IP? I can't imagine trying to run critical applications that are so vulnerable to having their connection dropped since they're not on a protocol with more security like MPLS.
I don't think it's really marketed as an eth killer--that's just community talking shit. I think it's marketed as "the blockchain for commercial scale"
This is the more market-y "white paper" eos.io
I think it's gud. EOS wanted to ship not to """research""" intractable governance problems
Thanks for working on EOS. I love it.
I hope that they fix the RAM though. I have done maybe 60 transactions and they aren't free for me. Mostly fucking around with games. How the fuck am I supposed to do anything daily if it's this expensive?
I guess to reword, I have done 50 transactions to chaince with tokens and such and then have done 5 airgrabs and 3 game transactions and ran out of RAM when this shit was/is marketed as fast & free.
As long as you can send bytes from your client to the nodeos server, you can develop a thin plugin and use whatever network protocol you want
so it has to be local? Like I can't use the regular internet if I want to host a mission critical application?
Like, I want to be able to provide a dapp to do remote robotic surgery guidance with low latency. I'm not sure I can rely on regular networking for that.
You run out of free RAM if you use your available RAM to store data in EOSIO persistent layer. If you release that data, you can recover your RAM, but if your RAM was used by a different smart contract to reserve memory without having a way to deallocate it, then yes, there's a problem (see eosio.stackexchange.com
I just feel like there should be a stronger VM with more resources if anyone is going to use this for actual transactions.
Permanent items and tokens like anyone would want to actually use this for can't be cleared.
Thanks for replying. Still hoping that they get this sorted because the speed is amazing and the community/funds are great.
If you want to use it for life/death critical applications that require low latency, then EOSIO is definitely not good for that at all. BPs can miss blocks, the CPU costs are unpredictable (they depend on network activity), the BPs performance is unpredictable (depends on their system at the time), etc.
Yeah, they're adding more RAM, but the problem is that if you add too much RAM, validator nodes cannot keep up anymore. But RAM is definitely one of the biggest problems they're trying to solve; lotsa complaints from dapp developers and businesses who are finding out that costs are higher than anticipated
It seems like EOS is pretty good for passive or casual business applications but something more robust or critical needs a higher solution.
I keep looking at Skycoin's CX and how it will function off of their physical hardware and their "New Internet" networking and protocol use and it seems like the only way that I could ensure that I have the proper networking built between point A and point B. Any opinions on the proposed tech there? (I think there's a huge opportunity for using doctors from other countries for countries with highly regulated medical services and I'm working on a business plan and tech mapout)
I wouldn't use blockchain for anything like this, because they're all young, experimental, and mostly broken. Maybe in 5-10 years, but no point in giving recommendations now. Probably Bitcoin second/third-layer solutions in 10 years if smart contract blockchains really pick up, but up until now they've been p shit
Understood. Thanks for the insight user. I'll keep looking through physical hardware solutions. Leading concept right now is mounting a bunch of wifi radio equipment on trucks and beaming the signal across a border with the lowest latency possible whenever a surgery is scheduled.
>I'm openly anti-ETH since the DAO
but you're an eos dev.
move along everyone this is retard nigger
Good luck bro, sounds like a nice problem
Some things you'll never understand user
