13:57:55 <Guest78835> I'm getting so sick of all the posts saying "this needs to be changed". Spend 2 minutes of your life to open an issue FFS.
14:04:19 <midipoet> the fact that people don't open Issues in Github/Gitlab but instead just post about what should change, needs to change.
14:04:25 <midipoet> ;-)
14:05:30 <Guest78835> jesus christ is that so hard to get?
14:05:49 <Guest78835> aaah, i'm nervous today
15:25:07 <kinghat> 🤦‍♂️ https://twitter.com/iwearahoodie/status/1203566947310264320
15:25:08 <monerobux> [ Jason Smith on Twitter: "I’ve been playing with zcash for a week or so now. I prefer it far more than bitcoin. Shielded transactions are a far better way to pay someone. I’m no longer exposing my enti ] - twitter.com
15:41:01 <sarang> Odd thought later in that thread about Monero being "more centralized"... https://twitter.com/iwearahoodie/status/1203667874490880000
15:41:01 <monerobux> [ Jason Smith on Twitter: "I don’t know why you say “I know” because you just stated the exact opposite of what I said. Bitcoin just had a hidden inflation bug which was discovered by bitcoin cash dev ] - twitter.com
15:41:09 <sarang> Not sure why the author might think that, but curious
16:37:08 <sgp_> sarang: "centralized" is defined differently by everyone
16:37:22 <sgp_> probably not worth engaging in those conversations too much
16:37:23 <sarang> Yeah, which is why I'm curious what the author meant
16:37:33 <sarang> Agreed, it's only a curiosity
16:37:46 <sgp_> I would like to know why they feel that way but they haven't given us anything :/
16:40:47 <sgp_> sarang: you can see if he responds https://twitter.com/JEhrenhofer/status/1204078404368252931
16:40:47 <monerobux> [ Justin Ehrenhofer on Twitter: "Can you explain why you feel Monero is more centralized? Curious to understand your perspective.… " ] - twitter.com
16:54:03 <kinghat> also why he thinks capped supply is better
16:54:54 <kinghat> sgp_: if he replies will you post back here?
16:55:16 <sgp_> sure
16:55:27 <sgp_> I'm not going to bother with the capped supply question though
16:55:28 <kinghat> tyvm
16:55:47 <sgp_> too many other positions and I really don't care about his response to that one :p
16:59:26 <kinghat> 😂
17:58:33 <geonic> the guy has "I like ZCash" in his bio. small chance of a good faith discussion.
17:59:20 <geonic> sgp_: do you have any insight into the vote for the continued founders reward? I think you were following that pretty closely. how close was it?
18:00:18 <sarang> AFAIK Zcash Foundation didn't publicly place any particular weight on that vote, right? I only saw ECC really promoting it, but maybe that's an incomplete perspective
18:00:20 <sarang> ^ sgp_
18:00:56 <sgp_> geonic: no mining pools signaled a single vote in the blocks. I didn't pay attention to the transparent address voting since that was stupid imo. The stakeholder poll (which I voted in) results are here: https://www.zfnd.org/blog/community-sentiment-collection-results/
18:04:08 <geonic> looks fairly unanimous. curious how they came to the opposite decision.
18:18:49 <nioc> lol
18:20:00 <geonic> Zooko is the Shakespeare of decentralization theater :)
18:34:16 <sgp_> let's not bring too much of that into here beyond how it relates to the Monero community
18:34:40 <sgp_> eg: conversation about how to market Monero is decentralized is on-topic
19:03:49 <geonic> agreed
21:26:13 <kpcyrd> I was a bit worried that the thread I started in r/Monero is a slightly "dumb" question to ask, but I got many high quality replies <3
21:43:22 <rottensox> sgp_: you'll be present at 36c3?
22:00:24 <sgp_> rottensox: nope
23:51:39 <needmonero90> wow big shocker that zcash foundation voted to extend zcash foundation's payment
23:57:46 <sarang> Link?
