RE: A quick look at Steem inflation as Q3 comes to a close

in #steemtalklast year

I'm curious to see if we can actually observe the predicted numbers in a year from now.

Me too. I'm fairly sure that the actual numbers will be lower than predicted due to burning and missed blocks, but I'm interested to see how far apart they are. If the price of STEEM manages to break substantially above $0.252 for a while, it could be a nice reduction. And I'm especially interested to see if we hit the anticipated daily peak in February. On that point, the early/mid February time frame has been pretty consistent ever since I started looking at it.

... and that is even less pleasing..

Yeah, I was dumbfounded when I saw that. The funny thing is, I blindly clicked "ok" when they made me acknowledge the terms of service, and only noticed the change some weeks later in github. Anyway, fingers crossed that things work themselves out somehow. I keep hoping it was a copy/paste thing since I noticed that other Tron-related web sites have similar terms. For now, I can post through upvu or through condenser on my own computer, so I'm not locked out, but I'm still not thrilled about the situation.

Ultimately, I'm hoping to make/adapt some sort of desktop client so I don't have to depend on anyone else (we are supposed to be decentralized. ;-).

I tried to use esteem surfer as a starting point and failed miserably due to package compatibility issues. I got esteem desktop to compile and run, but it was still using websockets, so didn't want to talk to the API. So now, I guess my options are to study up on nodejs, css, npm, npx, etc and try to dig into one of the esteem clients... or try to start from scratch with Java, JavaFX, and SteemJ, which I already know a little bit. Eventually, that'll lead to css and HTML, too, but at least I can already make some progress.

Did you have to accept the terms again? Did you receive a demand to do so? I'm only asking because I didn't have to do that.

Oh, there's a lot to discover on ecency and its offshoots. I think upvu.org is based on it too.

Unfortunately, I inevitably had to deal with HTML, CSS and Javascript for my site as well. I have even started with React. I wouldn't have thought that possible a few years ago. But I like to do it when I have the time :-)

I hope you'll write about your progress from time to time. Good luck with it. :-))

Yeah, I was forced to reaccept a while ago. I'm not 100% sure if it was before or after that change, but it was after the post about the Steemkids ToS being a "guideline" instead of a "rule", so I assume it was after the change.

Interesting. Then the users could obviously be assigned to the area... Another proof of the non-existent anonymity.
