Spaced Out Thoughts Development Foundation

Great chat with folks at @UUtah yesterday at @UofUECE. So much to learn. Specifically super excited to dive into visual programming. Keen on finding the right level of abstraction without venturing too far towards: joelonsoftware.com/2001/04/21/don…

Started setting up our first validator node 👀 tier one @StellarOrg organization here we come stellarbeat.io/organizations/…

Motivating read for a Monday morning. A member of the Future of Coding sat down with Alan Kay futureofcoding.org/notes/alan-kay…

@tomerweller @StellarOrg @ethereum @solana @Bitcoin @datadoghq Incredible - leveraged the prometheus metrics exported by the Soroban RPC we’re self hosting for our pub net contract to get some comprehensive monitoring up and running last weekend.

@spacedOutDevFnd @StellarOrg @ethereum @solana @Bitcoin @datadoghq stellar-core makes extensive use of prometheus to export metrics. You can visualize these using our Grafana dashboards (example screenshot attached). deets here: developers.stellar.org/docs/validator…

How do folks monitor their #core @StellarOrg, @ethereum, @solana, and/or @Bitcoin nodes in practice? I've been opting to pipe most things into @datadoghq out of habit. Works well but likely overkill (although it is nice to have other info here all side-by-side like our oracle).

Gotta love wondering why your ~100% uptime @StellarOrg oracle goes down... recalling its a Github Oracle and thus subject to the uptime of @github 🤣

An interesting read I came across again. @VitalikButerin's blog has a whole lot of gems for anyone who's never checked it out. vitalik.eth.limo/general/2021/0…

soroban-oracle.net is ours... a vanity url for our oracle network, why not? Stay tuned for more news in the next couple months. We're drafting specs, writing contracts, standing up servers. #BUIDL

Got lost in the woods trying to decipher contract invocations on @StellarOrg ledger? It’s not that difficult! Check this brief guide to learn how to analyze smart contracts output with StellarExpert.🧵

We're working on a first draft of our DAO, a project which we believe will enable the long term sustainability of Spaced Out Thoughts. A key part is rewarding contributors for their work (hence the Github Oracle). How would you like to be rewarded?

Crypto. Saves. Lives. Still a skeptic? See the onchain effect of @Decaf_so, @StellarOrg, @MoneyGram, and @circle in Colombia.

@StellarOrg @github ** fyi failures are handled gracefully for the astute observer

Our v1 @StellarOrg @github oracle operated at 100% uptime this week, syncing the state of select repos & issues, costing on avg. ~3 XLM/day. Naive, unoptimized, & centralized, but functional & cheap. Great dev experience so far! On to v2 this weekend 🚀 #BUIDL #SmartContracts

Excited to share we've been accepted to present our work on Digicus at @StellarOrg Meridian conference in London in October! We've a pretty lofty vision vision outlined here (…out-thoughts-dev-foundation.github.io/digicus/) of what we can accomplish @BuildOnStellar... and we're just getting started 🚀

I feel I have to re-introduce myself now I’ve entered a new #Web3 world and joined @StellarOrg - I’m Elliot, I’m from 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (Wales) Who am I? Wtf am I all about? I used to be a professional athlete and now I’m a visual storyteller, film director and writer first. I am obsessed with human lead stories, I am obsessed with diversity and accessibility, I am here to bring the human element to video, photo and content. I am here to try and raise voices, fight for the underrepresented and make change in the world through video. It’s lovely to meet all of you new faces, see you around ❤️

Excited to try it out and especially to work it into our SDLC 🚀

@tomerweller @Decaf_so Was this presented somewhere publically available?

Mind blown by what the @Decaf_so team just presented

Incredible work. Bringing the whole ecosystem forward with you 🚀

Excited to see @in_reflector launching a DAO. Kudos to the Soroban pioneers operating at the edge of our young smart contract ecosystem. Link: reflector-network.medium.com/announcing-the…
