No agreement, miners can do whatever they want, miners are doing whatever they want. Which is telling core devs to fuck off.
Yes there is an agreement. Those said individuals are to deliver a HF proposal as long as the other party doesn't violate their end. There was no talk about merging code.
Oh please. Tell me the miners believed they were signing an agreement with "individuals," tell me the press, this forum, r/bitcoin etc., celebrated the miners signing an agreement with "individuals." Show me how good you are at lying when it serves you.
Now tell me I'm a fool to discount your opinion, when you don't even want to *tell* me you're a decent coder.
So your own opinion and the opinion of your 'buddies' is also worthless. Good to know.
If I made a statement along the lines of
Classic Core developers are like high school programmers in comparison to the people working on Core Classic.
...and I had exactly zero clout as a coder?
And then I refused to even tell you if I could even code?!
Yeah, my opinion wouldn't be worth dick. If I did that, anyone with a shred of sanity and/or common sense would be absolutely obligated to point fingers and laugh at me.
But not you, oooh no... You'd just take my word for it, right?
You want to buy a nice bridge in NYC, Lauda?
