HIVE Witness Node Back Producing Blocks
Seems like my witness node is back synced and producing blocks. Still unsure as to why it borked before but after a replay it appears to be caught back up and rolling again. Currently hitting a block every few hours which isn't bad considering my ~50 witness rank.
have lots to do today as my work week starts again. Way too many things on the go code wise sadly and trying to knock stuff off the list for clients so I can focus on my own dev work. Still way the fuck further behind than I even want to think about or admit but such is life. Can only keep working towards the end goals and whatnot.

:3 you got this !
yeet
What are you working on with the dev stuff? I've been getting buried in a project myself.
Tons of shit at the moment, working on a splinterlands clone for a client as well as a discord game, then I can get to my own work again here hopefully.
buried is an understatement!
Well, if you (and I) ever get a chance to work on some blockchain stuff together that would be neat. My work typically lies somewhere between horribly mangled code and projects that are too big for me (checks that my ass can't cash). That said, I've been getting in on the academic side of blockchain and it's been pretty cool.
Maybe one day. If you're decent at front end / dynamic viewport scaling shit I'd hire you to help me. Back end stuff I'm pretty well versed in, front end shit I'm stuck in HTML 2.0 or something.
I'm working on some react stuff. It's aight but I get REALLY stuck every now and then. I used to wonder why guys didn't do front-end stuff. Now I know why.
hahahahaha. Front end fucking SUCKS.
The design part I enjoy.. but making it dynamically scale against multiple devices / resolutions is the definition of tech-aids.
Yeah it's a nightmare. It's almost like we need a container for the front-end.
One more thing: Man I'm all for decentralization. That's why I do it all, but fuck sometimes it would be so much easier to build one little centralized part to make things run smoothly.
Even the decentralized shit is centralized to some extent.. Almost all of it runs as an app instance on a box somewhere.. Even if it's pulling data from a decentralized chain.. the point of failure is the front end or API or whatever that ties it all in together.
Blockchain is jsut a ledger after all.. Basically nothing out there is a proper decentralized system/box. EVM is about the closest and the specs on it are absolute commodore 64 style specs.
I need to learn more about the Hive architecture and building on it. Honestly, hive engine is kind of a turn-off for me so I've never tried. I didn't like that it wasn't permission-less in a "contract" sense.
I do most of my work on the EVM. I like the restraint honestly. It feels like every function is solving a little puzzle.
EVM is certainly a stricter language to code in.
Hive engine is neat but lacks the constraints / forced formatting which often leads to garbage fucking JSON getting posted which breaks stuff. Sucks to have to harden chain parsing applications against other peoples fuck ups. DCROPS by far is the worst for this.
Take a look at the Hive Engine nodes. The sad truth is the incentive isn't really there for robust nodes to operate (IMO). I don't want to seem like a bad dude and say more.
That said, I did find a possible answer that's only possible through Hive Engine.
How does one become a Hive witness? What was your motivation for becoming one? I only know of you from your work with Psyber X, so apologies if I've asked a question you've been asked in the past.
Becoming a witness is pretty simple from a logistics means. One just needs to install and run the
hivednode software one a linux PC. The hard part is getting the witness votes to get higher on the ranking to hit more blocks.As for motivation initially it was a prestige/money thing.. But now it's more just for fun.
Thank you very much.
Most welcome.
