Well, that first post by hopeAo which you cited is substandard.  It is poorly written.  It makes flagrant technical mistakes; since when is C++ a “basic commands line code [sic]”?  It mentions half the title of Mastering Bitcoin, but without providing any link for the book—as another user, pebwindkraft, had already done upthread!  Much of its other information is repetitive as to prior posts, poorly written, and/or technically wrong; does the poster even know what a “computers console [sic]” is?  “Git Hub there's lots of chain codes there”—seriously, that deserves merit?

I could continue picking that post apart, but I think I made my point.

It may be related that the thread was largely stupid.  It started with a uselessly vague one-line question by a self-proclaimed “Tactical Genius”:  “What are the basic requirements for developing a blockchain?”  The very first response by Fantum was the best (“First off, not having to ask that question.”).  Some of the other early responses were of reasonable quality.  But the thread generally was trash.  I myself saw that thread repeatedly pop up; I ignored it.

(As the cherry on the sundae, the thread contained two spam posts which I just reported.  Thanks for drawing it to my attention.)


Well... you asked.

I did not look at your other selections.
