I disagree with that. I think there's a difference between casino style gambling where the house is guaranteed to win and loot boxes where the user is guaranteed some value close to the purchase price with a possibility to get something more desirable. But I agree this mechanic + kids = gross
Interested to see if you think it's related - our latest drop was $5 for cards worth mostly $15 but the sealed packs traded for over $100. It makes me think the users, many gen Z, are happy to pay for the digital experience without caring so much about the legacy valuation of the physical that backs it.
I think your list is still mostly valid, I'd think about adding: First surplus income employment (in lieu of college or more important than college) Parents needing care
I went through the process many times and it was really painless in my experience. I always got a positive answer in a week or two.
Pick up a side project if you have time, join a time bound hackathon if you don't. That's what I did when I started feeling that way at Google, and about a year later I left because the company I was working on really needed me full time. If they didn't, I would've remained happy spending a few hours a week on it.
I wear a flat shoe for lifting but will take them off if I'm wearing running shoes and squatting or deadlifting.
I use them for simple actions like format checking and even some test suites but use cloud build for CI/CD
Does it increase the quality of the people on X too?
Why is backend development still important in a world of full stack frameworks?
Thanks! Let's go! We need our space free of frontend framework debates 😉
Me too! Excited to see some more active conversation here
One optimization to limit the response size by doing a query just of my contract to get the eligible addresses, and then filtering my request for seaport logs by those and second, a simple recursive algorithm to split up the query until it succeeds.
This is the most accurate take I've seen in a long time
Sorry about that! It sold out in 30 seconds, so mission accomplished on the stress test front. There's going to be more very soon
@mk I'd recommend chatting with @cojo.eth given his experience with Freeport. Courtyard will get there but currently everything we have onchain is stored at Brink's which is extremely secure but maybe not up to archival humidity and temperature requirements.
As always, I appreciate all feedback! If you try it out, please let me know how the experience was and how we can improve. 🙏 💜
At Courtyard, we ran into scaling issues during our last drop - web3 infra providers aren't used to web2 levels of demand! We addressed the bugs and are running a stress test to push the limits. This is a great opportunity - $5 graded Pokemon cards, dropping this afternoon. https://courtyard.io/drop/stress-test-1
