RE: About the Gridcoin Problems

in #gridcoin7 years ago (edited)

"We all know that the last big update didn’t went that well." This is a false statement. They didn't "put out a bad release". The bugs were old code from before. The forking bug was a time-bomb in the code that activated between releases.

Publicly posting "WTF, $60?" says "I do not think their time is worth that."

Based on western world expenses and pay rates, $60 per hour gross, when it's paid out of free money, is an amazing bargain, for the level of developer skill being applied to GRC.

What are your concerns with the foundation wallet?

It seems most people on the network are okay with the pay change:

  • The voice of the owner of the coins is "This is what I want to pay them."
  • The voice of the people is "the proposed compensation is acceptable."
  • The voice of the dissenting vote is 10%.

For the other things, what pieces can you step up and do?

  • You mention Twitter should have had more updates. Why don't you step up as communications resource?
  • Yes, the documentation is scattered, and it can be difficult to get set up. Why don't you write a how-to document that's more up-to-date?
  • If you think $60/hr is too much, then why not do the work for less?
Sort:  

Let me reword it: We had a test with 30$ payment fore developers.
And then, without discussion, without looking at the test, evaluating it and looking what we could learn for it, we had this vote doubling the pay for an indefinite time and indefinite amount.

Everywhere else - company, political party, public institution - you would have been fired for such behavior.

Do you now understand my problem with it?

If I would be a programmer I would, but I am not.
And I didn't say that we should not pay that. I did say that doubling the rate from a test without discussion is a very bad idea.
