I'm not attempting to FUD and I don't want to have a general discussion about ChainLink. I just want an answer to one question about LINK, that I have never seen reasonably answered or addressed?
WHY THE FUCK IS IT TAKING SO LONG TO DEVELOP?
I have been an enterprise software architect that has lead teams of developers in groups from 20-200 for companies like Deloitte and EY and I am also well versed in Crypto.
For what they have done in past 2 years, should have taken a dev team of 2 people about 3 months and to meet all of the goals they want to meet by April that they have had 1+ year to work on, should only take a dev team of 4-5 people about 4-6 months
I don't think LINK is a scam, I think it solves a very real problem....but fuck, I'm half tempted to create an ERC-20 token myself that is exactly what LINK is/wants to be, but have it finished in 3 months
do it, then send me 100k memecoins so we can both make it.

>WHY THE FUCK IS IT TAKING SO LONG TO DEVELOP? t. has never worked on a non-trivial software application before
Anthony Taylor
this is what I've been wondering for 2 years. And I know nothing about software development
usually you just get a meme answer linking you to some wikipedia page about some hypothetical law which shows team size is inversely correlated with development time
Leo Nguyen
You may be a dev but you are hellavua impatient investor. You have to understand they have one chance to make this right. ONE CHANCE.
>t. has never worked on a non-trivial software application before The enterprise system for which I am the lead on now, and for past 3 years, manages ~10,000,000,000 in USD every year
Andrew Clark
>They just completed it. What the fuck are you talking bout?
Chase Kelly
Mainnet imminent.
Kevin Perez
im not sure
Evan Baker
I've been asking myself the same question. It's not like its just 1 dev, and some of the code was already finished in Ruby before the ico.
Logan Campbell
>Mainnet imminent. If I told the Business/OPs team every 4 weeks that the product launch is imminent for over a year, i'd have been fired
Joshua Taylor
Check pivotal op. Collect and aggregate is finished. Mainnet imminent.
Jaxon Watson
I've been checking it for 6 months wondering what the hell is actually going on.
and amateur hour bugs like this completely terrify me. Either means shitty developers or somehow the project is being rushed too much even though it's moving at a snails pace:
>Look mom, I did it again! I'm being a pain in the ass basing my argument off of absurd technicalities that would never be true but are theoretically possible
Dylan Powell
So does xrp and it's a massive pile of crap
William Harris
>have it finished in 3 months adorable fud
Ryan Edwards
Just because your application manages $10b each year doesnt give (You) any weight or credibility.
They dont know what the final product will look like yet, because its impossible to figure out all the details at once.
Your system is probably based on well-known concepts and mechanisms. Its surely not fucking blockchain middleware built to bridge smart contracts with the outside world.
Jackson Cooper
The real answer is because they don't care about finishing it as fast as possible. Apparently they are not in a rush.
Luke Gray
>Just because your application manages $10b each year doesnt give (You) any weight or credibility. I know it doesn't give much, I just wanted to indicate that I'm not just some NEET bitching about LINK because it hasn't turned into more NEETbux
>They dont know what the final product will look like yet, because its impossible to figure out all the details at once. This is a fundamental problem that should have been addressed much earlier and released an MVP a year ago
>Your system is probably based on well-known concepts and mechanisms. Its surely not fucking blockchain middleware built to bridge smart contracts with the outside world. very good point
Logan Lopez
I should also point out that I am slated to implement smart contracts for a large global project and would like to get approval from the business to use ChainLink but there is no way in hell that will happen at this point...which I guess is good because I'd have to divest and if link ever does make it, I'd like to have my bags ready
Daniel Torres
So much this! I believe their main target is to find usage for this kind of system, development is secondary.
Juan Young
The thing is, the team never told us ‘mainnet imminent’ you piece of trash!
Joseph Wood
They have probably realized that they have no real competition and thus have no need to rush.
Rushing and consequently fucking something up would be 10x worse than having to wait a little bit longer.
A failed mainnet launch would ruin their reputation.
Angel Rogers
No shit, you fucking retard. I never said they did.
I'm saying their progress is pathetically slow by any measure of SDLC output and it is bordering on vaporware unironically
Kevin Perez
>im not trying to fud
Fudding like crazy
Jackson Lopez
No, I'm stupidly 100% all in on LINK...but thats only because investing is how I gamble and I only fuck around with moonshots
How is asking any question about LINK's issues or anything other tha sucking on sir gays fat russian cock considered FUDing?
If you want to talk FUD's, there is more than enough ammo looking at their Pivotal Tracker and the charts for past 18 months
Isaac Johnson
Wait so your saying you hold link AND you fud link? That's a fucking first man
Juan Russell
No, i'm saying I hold LINK and you are saying I'm FUD'ing because I'm simply bringing up one of many real issues with LINK...you are the one who is implying LINK is perfect and on a perfect timetable since even the slightest critique is FUD'ing to you and many idiots here
Michael Sanchez
They had to rewrite the project in GO, they have had to do security audits, and they have been working on SWIFT's smart Oracle so its ready for PSD2 and ready to interface with Chainlink MainNet.
Dylan Bennett
Imagine divesting from a pseudonymous easily laundered asset because of muh career. You lead software dev for big companies but you're a complete brainlet.
Sebastian Turner
I make 180k/yr and work 30 hours a week. If I have to choose what to go "all in" on, it's that over LINK...you are a top tier brainlet if you can't figure out the logic behind that
Nolan Sanders
I didn't even read what you wrote. If you want a technical argument you won't get one, because all the smart anons fucked off since after November. All I know is that every single technical thread from last year ended with a win for link, with everything being disproven. Now it's just a waiting game for the product to be functioning. So whatever concerns you have now are irrelevant. Wait for after link is operational and then come measure your technical dick size with other anons.
In the mean time, all you need to do is come a bit closer
I don't think the problem is making the project... it's more of getting clients ready, and onboard before release. Everything's done, mainet release, no usage then what? I'm really hoping it's just Sergay making sure clients and customers are lined up before release of a long finished project
Owen Clark
Based and honkpilled
Ryan Lopez
You're FUDing because youre not bringing up any actual points you're just impatient.
David Jones
Thread is hilarious.
Dude asks a legitimate question, but the cult of blue shit tokens on Jow Forums can't provide even a shadow of an answer, so they attack him mercilessly.
Angel Diaz
Launching mainnet isn’t the problem it’s convincing insurance companies to go all in on smart contracts.
