Yes, Luke-jr. No, I didn't know about F2Pool. Link?
I think they violated it a day later mining a Classic block. I'll update the post if I find the link.
Regardless, the agreement is either valid and binding, or it's not. If it's not, the miners are free to do whatever they wish, and this whole debate is pointless.
It matters. People who attack Luke-jr for 'trying' to create a proposal are heavily biased if it was already broken.
If you don't code, your "objective observation" re. coding abilities of others is what's called an "uneducated opinion," and, as such, ain't worth much more than my cat's. My cat don't code.
So you can draw a conclusion of my 'coding abilities' based on not-seeing any of my code? Interesting story.
As far as "bias" goes, your bias on this issue is well-known.
No it is not. What nonsense are you talking about? I have no connection to any developer regardless of whether Core or Classic/other.
I would value an opinion of a surgeon much higher than that of a garbage collector, if the topic is surgery. Vice-versa if the topic is collecting garbage.
Fine, Core has surgeons and Classic has garbage collectors. I get it.
