Estimate: traffic reports added in 1 month!The current design will scale to any number of pages and any amount of traffic! |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: Court hearing in 30 min. I must focus on legal work for the next month. Page by page traffic history reports seem to be working and will beome visible within days or at worst a few weeks.A watched pot never boils. But the code is coming together! |ideafarm (44)in steem • 6 years agoReframing the problem from making STEEM the best place to post content, to making STEEM the best place to discuss external content.The key to attracting and keeping users is to repurpose STEEM to be a discussion platform. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoDiscussion: How to make steemit "external content driven"Two years ago, @spookypooky posted, "I can see it coming to a state of being 'external content driven' rather than steemit centric in the coming months. Once the steemit price and growth is less…ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: "views" traffic history reports for each page are coming for my "free speech zone" web site. A server is now separating data by page. In 24 hours, it will start generating a report for each page.This is all new C++ code, so we'll see whether I can make it run reliably. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: "Free speech zone" traffic reports database: The software has a 2 million field capacity limit. I'm now working on eliminating that limit.Each post will have its own traffic history report page. |ideafarm (44)in steem • 6 years ago"DoubleStar" Vision: External web sites that work with, and complement, steemit.com and STEEM. Each web site sets its own mission and development vision, as a piece of an overall vision based on STEEM as a "proof of brain" cryptocurrency.IDEAFARM.COM: A human curated, zero censorship/spam "knowledge tree". |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: human curated "free speech zone": All of the coding is done but not tested. "If it's not tested, it doesn't work!" (Old Silicon Valley saying.)The only thing left to do, other than debugging, is to format the report pages. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: "free speech zone": Database updating is stable. I am beginning to craft the reporting software. Craftwork takes time, so I will not be reporting progress "play by play".A watched pot never boils. But a new 100% human curated "free speech zone" is coming! |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: "free speech zone" software: M$ Update trashed my laptop and sent me to"password Hell" for a day.Status: The traffic database is working and I am beginning to develop the reporting program. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: the "free speech zone" software now reports (formatted dump) the contents of the traffic database once every "tick" (1/256 of a day)This software will be unstable for a few days (until I track down a bug), but it works! |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: "free speech zone" software: traffic database update might now be stable. A simple reporter program is in place but crashes.Next: Debug the reporter program. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: the "free speech zone" servers now maintain a full (lossless) traffic database. Vision: Each page will link to a traffic history report for that page.When you speak in the "free speech zone", you will know how many people are listening. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: I got zlib working within my "free speech zone" software. (Needed for traffic log data.)Almost gave up twice today, but got it working. Next: integrate this as a feature of my software. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: my "free speech zone" servers do not yet update a traffic database. (Yesterday's claim was premature.)gzip.exe cannot be launched by a Windows service, so I must modify the code to use zlib. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: my 100% human curation "free speech zone" servers now update a traffic database.Next: Debug, inspect, and test. Vision: Human curation site closely coupled ("doublestar") with STEEM. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: The traffic database code appears to work and the speed problem is fixed.Next: Put all of this code into production to test it for speed and correctness. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: traffic database "build" program finished and it works but is slow. I need to study the performance problem.Work on this will be on hold for a few days as I need to attend to other business. |ideafarm (44)in humancuration • 6 years agoProgress: traffic events are now "booked". Next: code to maintain a database.Capture and booking took one day each. Today: database. Tomorrow: traffic history by web page. |ideafarm (44)in steemit • 6 years agosteemCreated with Sketch.100% human curation for STEEM restored! (External web site for zines and "follow lists".)Here's a reprint of my new zine, which I will use to explore the idea. To view my zine as a knowledge tree, click my web link and then either click "speech" or go directly to the zine by clicking…
