m-relay
<meatmonster:monero.social> ok? you just completely disregarded the fact that cloudflare can be used to defend against ddos traffic whilst allowing tor with captchas
-
m-relay
<321bob321:monero.social> i think cloudflare strips the tls
-
m-relay
<321bob321:monero.social> its does something when you enable the onion routing on it
-
m-relay
<meatmonster:monero.social> yes it works as a middleman like that regardless if one is using tor, clearnet or whatever
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> tldr: you don't have to block exit nodes to enable cloudflares ddos protections. Blocking exit nodes was a personal choice
-
m-relay
<meatmonster:monero.social> monerobull you or whoever owns the domain wanna comment on this?
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> The short version: manually took server offline > brought server back online with cloudflare blocking exit nodes = no more ddos
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> not much to comment on
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> monero.town
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> (potential) cost ($) was a common theme in the reasoning behind taking server offline and for blocking exits
-
m-relay
<321bob321:monero.social> Well cloudflare is free
-
m-relay
<321bob321:monero.social> Sooooo
-
m-relay
<321bob321:monero.social> Your the product
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> The server isnt free, so allowing exit nodes involves some legwork to mitigate the attack
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> ccs.getmonero.org and repo.getmonero.org both use cloudflares gates. www.getmonero.org uses cloudflare, but with the gates disabled

m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> At defcon and other things the past couple of weeks have required my attention.

plowsof
more details on the changes to the ccs will be confirmed tomorrow in the site meeting?

m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> Would you to take a stab at the redesign janaka?
-
plowsof
janaka needs a designer, the designer is presumably going to be diego
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> I don't HAVE to do it
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> Someone else can do it.
-
m-relay
<chch3003:monero.social> I am not a designer

m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> But the proposed design is not good.

plowsof
janaka not being a designer and we have one with highly relavant experience

-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> I'm sorry for the frustration.
-
m-relay
<chch3003:monero.social> As I understand Diego want to keep the structure of the current website, so it would require a complete redesign
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> Again, these are the things I am proposing and others can disagree.
-
plowsof
if the designer proposal is going to be separate then janakas work/proposal is not contingent on a design proposal being ironed out?
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> We can discuss that at tomorrow's meeting for the site.
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> No. I have an active CCS proposal.

i'd like to see (even thouhg the website group leader hasn't lol) HS touch base with janaka about .. well.. astro (basically what i need to do tbh so i know what im going to be contributing to in the near future.... use astro for something, like how syntheticbird created cuprate.org using it.. im sure he has a better idea of what 'it' is now )
-
m-relay
<0xfffc:monero.social> I haven’t read the ccs. I am not against it, and don’t know much to be in favour of it. But never had any negative interactions with hardenedsteel. Looks like someone who wants to work.

m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> Not sure if he did it to get a rise out of me, or if he's really that messed up in the head
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> Via issues and prs
-
m-relay
<rucknium:monero.social> That doesn't answer my question. The disagreements can appear in PRs and issues. What is the decisionmaking process?
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> There is Monero Docs and #monero-docs
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> The same as -site (?)
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> not sire what sort of disagreements youre referring to
-
plowsof
as ive provided some help for the new -docs effort rucknium i think i can speak to that Q also, it seems, in my eyes, a major issue with getmonero.dev is the new license or copyright , MAGIC + others (everywhere)
-
m-relay
<rucknium:monero.social> There is sometimes disagreement about the contents of getmonero.org, especially about non-cotre eneitities. AFAIK there isn't a good way to resolve those disagreements, so some -site progress is slow. Can we do better with -docs?
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> If were documenting a function, it only has one definition
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> site is slow because of maintainer
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> Its a lot faster now, even though we dont have a maintainer.
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> there is a contributing guide for site that is rarely followed
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> I believe yes we can do better in docs. Core is not in the way
-
plowsof
current/proposed docs sites are MIT - the new docs (updated mkdocs) has an attribution plugin, where, authors are listed at the bottom of each entry, so edits on getmonero.org can be lifted and attributed appropriately if needed

<lederstrumpf:matrix.org> Heya binarybaron & einliterflasche, I like the direction of your proposal! Wanted to ask if you've tried using Farcaster, and if you've looked into integrating it into the UnstoppableSwapGUI in addition to Comit? I know the only significant activity Farcaster's seen in 2024 is adding Namecoin support, but it's fully functional and solves for instance the bidirectional swapping iss<clipped message>
-
m-relay
<lederstrumpf:matrix.org> ue that's been raised here:
reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/1dz739s/comment/lcfi2zs
-
plowsof
lederstrumpf the community has decided that farcaster is a dead dodo / abandonned and te only protocol worth investing in is COMIT
-
plowsof
is this the correct assumption?
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> lederstrumpf: wasnt a wuestion for me, but we'll probably add in basicswap
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> Of nvm, i was thinking noots eth swaps.
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> Basicswap has bidirectional swaps
-

i think we can put an open end to the meeting here, thank you all for providing feedback
-
m-relay
<hinto:monero.social> ofrnxmr: I think it's inappropriate to start this discussion again. I'd still be willing to write out a response detailing work, although, the CCS/updates already do this if read in full.
-
ofrnxmr
I think the subject of rates is valid
-
m-relay
<hinto:monero.social> plowsof: yes, all milestones are done, including binary
-
m-relay
<hinto:monero.social> I'll probably come back when PRs pile up, so maybe a few days from now
-
m-relay
<hinto:monero.social> ofrnxmr: if you believe so, then please write a comment detailing things on the proposal
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> Its a free market, to an extent, but if you're charging 145k, and berman 250k, what Is acceptable for cryptographers?
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> I think market rates are important, but i also think we need to be careful about setting precedent
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> Its not _your_ proposal that's an issue, its in general
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> people asking for funds far above what is adequate and disregarding the spirit of monero being community driven. Whales exist, but imo the source of funding isnt unlimited. What will devs do if/when whales stop contributing due to it being unsustainable? Lower their rates? Work for free? Quit?
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> These rates being charged need to be humbled a bit. I dont know where in the world one would need over 10k/mth to live comfortably in 2024. Wen lambo
-
vthor
comfortably? I think that is absolute POV... And IMO this is a very socialist POV... And even if he would need a lambo to feel comfortably... That is his life and he decides for what he is willing to but his lifetime (the most scare in this world) into...
-
ofrnxmr
Like i said, its a free market (to an extent)
-
ofrnxmr
But ccs is supposed to support monero first and foremost
-
vthor
just my two picos....
-
ofrnxmr
If it was a free for all, then devs should open at 500k and see how long that lasts b4 we stop getting funding
-
ofrnxmr
ccs is a tool to support monero development, not a tool to buy lambos bcuz u want to overbill
-
vthor
This is something what I don't understand...
-
ofrnxmr
once upon a time there was a monero tesla ccs
-
vthor
when the CCS is aprooved it still needs to get funded, and nobody would drop money on what the person thinks it's not worth it?
-
m-relay
<plowsof:matrix.org> adds to notes 'suggest lambo experience / test drive at monerokon '
-
ofrnxmr
a lot of donations are made without reading the proposals or paying attention to the work compelted
-
ofrnxmr
We had a dev for 2 years who never fixed a single bug
-
m-relay
<CryptoGuard:matrix.org> Yes, can confirm indeed. We've looked at it and can take it on 👍
-
vthor
I calculated yesterday night ruffly estimating, that I'm working at the moment for ~$10, the lowest in my life I think.
-
ofrnxmr
underpricing is a major issue as well
-
ofrnxmr
But we red tape ppl into underpricing themself, and cause ccs proposals to fail as a result
-
vthor
"We had a dev for 2 years who never fixed a single bug" butt where is this related to the compensation?
-
ofrnxmr
he was charging for the work he wasnt doing
-
ofrnxmr
== being funded doesnt mean you earned your pay
-
vthor
this is something, but you say it's a free - market, but only to a price I can agree, and this is for me very socialist and wrong, I know I can't life comfortaby with EUR10k/month I lifed of of that and I had days where I had ony coins....
-
vthor
"== being funded doesnt mean you earned your pay" ack
-
ofrnxmr
did u also have a gambling problem 😅
-
vthor
And know things are worse, when I see inflation, I have a child with special need, the service dog, you can normally calculate daily alone $50, traveling with a dog an a cat add per night a $50 if you stay at a hotel
-
vthor
I never gambled once in my life. I make maybe unwise decisions, but at the end how I live confortable is up to me, or? Not? This is like saying nobody needs a car. Nobody needs a bicyle. Nobody needs shoes. Need != comfortable.
-
vthor
For some people it is comfortable to live in a city, for other (like for me) it is a nightmare... There are so many variables in life.... I lived of EUR50/month for some time (when I was alone), today I need almost that for purely survival of the familly a day...
-
ofrnxmr
Thats only 1500/mth
-
vthor
Don't get me wrong, it's not about attacking you or drama, it's just my view and what makes this world simply terrible, and on thing is this socialist mindset the race to the bottom....
-
ofrnxmr
Living comfortably could = drug addiction
-
ofrnxmr
i'm far from socialist
-
vthor
surveilal != comfortable. At all....
-
ofrnxmr
But i dont like ppl pissing in the pool
-
vthor
:D
-
vthor
Well, not nice pissing in the pool, and less pissing on someones leg...
-
ofrnxmr
even worse, pissing in the lemonade
-
vthor
I see here only how here often is a push for <$50/h, and I charged normally $100/h and think this is stil very low, when I started 20 years ago IBM hat a rate >$200/h...
-
ofrnxmr
What happened to ibm job
-
vthor
My mother got mad with me because I charged my EUR60 in the begining, while she got effectivly EUR5/h, and for me that is the same. Nobody sees that you charge one hour, work 2-3, and read 10 hours for it, everybody sees always only it is too much, because it is much more...
-
vthor
I never worked for IBM, it was only what IBM charged while I was charging EUR60/h....
-
ofrnxmr
ibm is a corporation with a lot if waste. Of course they charge 4x what they pay their employees
-
ofrnxmr
Anyway, my point is that, if monero devs started tk charge 200/hr, it wouldnt take long for the well to dry up
-
vthor
But anyway, this is not the point the point is that somebody decides what is a comfortable life for somebody else, that is what is in my view communist... (and not free market) and there is no free market "to an extent". Or there is a free market or not, if not it's socialism like all over the world what is causing gov with the big dildo waiting for everybody...
-
ofrnxmr
I'm not deciding what is comfortable. i am talking about cost of living. If someone wants lambo money, they should replace sarang
-
vthor
what means sarang?
-
ofrnxmr
sarand noether, one of our finest mathematician (who left)
-
ofrnxmr
sarang*
-
vthor
Why did he leave?
-
m-relay
<ofrnxmr:monero.social> Diego Salazar:
-
ofrnxmr
Long story, but monero didn't treat him well
-
vthor
hm... that would me make think....
-
ofrnxmr
we pay scammers all the time, while making it difficult for good workers to even get paid. triptych wa closed unpaid iirc
-
vthor
But anyway, how I said, was not meant to be an attack, I only a bit allergic of all socialist, and it irritates me more when I see it in connection to monero, because I assume that people surrounding monero are intrested in freedom - at least that I hope...
-
ofrnxmr
i am interested in freedom as it relates to monero, not interested in ppl coming to monero to drain the well and leave
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> Hi
-
ofrnxmr
can you explain to vthor a short version of why sarang left
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> The noether's were our researchers several years ago. They're some of the best in the biz. They were funded via quarterly CCS requests.
-
vthor
but ofrnxmr, then is not the price the issue but the scammers or to enable the scammers. But that is what I observe when I'm reading here, best nobody get paid anything and works forever... And when you make statements like that I think also, maybe not the best place to be, seems pretty unwelcomming...
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> They left for a variety of reasons. Firstly, raising money for your salary quarterly is very stressful. It's much less stable than a regular job. And Monero is volatile.
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> The tax stuff becomes more than a slight annoyance when it's also your livelihood.
-
vthor
Diego. Yes, I can see that.
-
vthor
Well taxes are not only a slight annoynce, only exit is to live nowhere.
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> Getting things like loans or apartments become very difficult as well, because those people ask about employers and potentially want to talk about employers before giving out their services.
-
ofrnxmr
One becomes a scammer by being too greedy. Like that dev i spoke about who didnt produce work buy charged $ for attending meetings that he didnt speak in
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> Having an employer that is an online community doesn't fit any of those bills. :P
-
vthor
:D
-
ofrnxmr
Socialism is giving away free money to people just because they think they are entitled to it
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> Lastly, they were often pushed to and fro by a community disagreeing what they should be working on. Some people wanted churn stuff. Others wanted next-gen privacy stuff. Etc.
-
vthor
yes, that is socialism, capitalism would not do that
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> They'd been doing things for Monero for several years and after a while they both just burned out.
-
vthor
I imagine

m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> Sarang now works for me. I own Cypher Stack (

-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> I have him working on monero stuff ;)
-
vthor
cool :)
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> But he gets paid in fiat, doesn't deal with tax stuff, and his job is much more stable.
-
m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> So most problems resolved.

m-relay
<diego:cypherstack.com> Ofrnxmr shen was before my time. Exited the project as I was first coming on in fact.

ofrnxmr
Ok

vthor
I need to continue to finish m3... It's more than overdue. Have a great day together!

And ofrnxmr, if you have not yet done, read Atlas Shrugged or watch the 3 movies (although they don't come even close to the book), and maybe you will think about some things different afterwards.

how much did zcash pay for (and on-going presumably) for their rust node? i could only find this inquiry thread
forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/inquiry-c-to-rust-conversion/38343

or if "equilibrium" would look at monero's code base / currrent cuprate and make an offer to 'finish it' that is a fraction of the cost / time of severlal full time cuprate devs we'd have something for comparison
-
m-relay
<321bob321:monero.social> Is there a working binary ?

otherwise we have a situation where i would steer people into making an alias and submitting some superficial PR's to cuprate then put up a full time mark rate ccs, rather than bothering with monero-core
