Woke up to day 2 of a dumpster fire. I really don't know why I try sometimes. The thing that is going to happen to the researchers if IO's Research proposal doesn't get approved will be the same thing that happens to the community if it does. It's not a hard concept. People want transparency, they want rates, they want overhead costs. You can't sit here and and say you will have to fire everyone without also showing the costs. It's a false reality, purely guilt driven, that gives the community nothing to stand on but to blindly vote yes. Several outspoke developers have spoken out for multiple years now on the Research stuff. I have not seen a single thing change. It's still a bloated docket. My only question is why not listen? 2 years of feedback and seemingly none of it heard. Now we are at ultimatum point again. Instead of just working through the budgetary concerns and reproposing, we are met with vote for me or i quit. I hate it here. CF tried to do it too. It's such a weak move to me. It's wild, where is the concession? Where is the willingness to work with dReps? Everything just seems so one sided. Where is the market awareness? We are in the worst spot we have been in as a chain. Spent a shitload of ADA last year with no results. The community has the right to be mad, we have the right to ask questions, and we have the right to ask for more financial clarity or changes to the proposal. Everyone is supposed to be held to the same standard when it comes to the treasury. I support IO, i think they are a critical part of the ecosystem that should be funded. I was happy to see the IO: Cardano Upgrades proposal get across this morning, albeit i still think costs could of been covered better in ALL IO proposals. I love seeing the FEs getting back together and vote on all of eachothers proposals, that's a very cool thing and super decentralized. Thankfully our FEs still control enough power to push whatever they want over the line. I'm probably killing my chances of my proposal with all this i just can't hold back any longer and watch the whole united states government system recreated on Cardano, by the same people who cry all the time about the US government being corrupt.

一部の日本のdRepが私たちの研究提案に反対票を投じたことに、深い悲しみを覚えています。 もしこの提案が可決されなければ、カルダノ（Cardano）はその科学者たちを失い、私たちのラボは閉鎖に追い込まれるということを、日本のコミュニティ全体に再認識していただきたいと考えています。私たちは10年以上の歳月をかけて努力と成長を積み重ね、暗号資産分野において世界最強の研究グループを築き上げてきました。 一部の断片的な資金援助だけで、この成果をバラバラに崩壊させるわけにはいきません。私たちの科学者たちは、より確実性と敬意のある場所へと去ってしまうでしょう。 どうか、カルダノの研究アジェンダを支持するdRepへの委任をお願いいたします。
