Hi, my name is Michel, which ~95% of English-speaking people unconsciously convert to "Michael", but that is fine too because my parents almost did name me Michael instead! :)
I am a mathematician specializing in Machine Learning, and I work for a scientific NGO, combining data from many sources (satellites, ground measurements, crowd-sourced) in order to better understand natural disaster risk.
At the moment I know close to nothing about blockchains, cryptocurrencies, or the whole ecosystem building up around these things. But I've decided to come see what all the fuss is about. And steem was heartily recommended to me to get started, so here I am!
Cheers

I use busy when someone links a site to me but I am a loyalist for this platform. I like steemit and have gotten really accustomed to it. Love all the front ends though, it really spreads the word quickly

Hi all! Thanks again for the welcome.
I have a question concerning the voting and "pending payout". It says that the pending payout of this post is $18.61 (which is huge, I am very surprised!). I understand that it splits into SP and SBD, and I more or less understand the gist of what those two things mean.
However, is there some way I can see a breakdown of "who gave how much"? i.e. which user(s) contributed the lion's share of this amount?

Welcome to Steemit buddy
I Presume that is Remote Sensing and Geoinformatics

Hi fellow Michael, thanks! Yes, both sensing (remote & local) and informatics (geo and otherwise) are a big part of our work. Are you working in a similar field?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Yes, I am
I studied Geography in first degree and worked with an Space Agency that deals on Remote Sensing and Geoinformatics as an intern.
I hope to get a job in that area but have been unable to get any since graduating

Keep looking! I recommend doing some open source work; you learn a lot, and what you produce can serve as a kind of portfolio in your job search.
