I've been watching that poll at the top of the thread and had to laugh that the day before it ends all these folks started voting 5500-6000.  And now we move to 6250...lol...just shows...there is no way to predict this beast....even the day before the poll ends.

I know...everyone wants to focus on gloom and doom...just thought it was a funny observation    but I'm not worried.

well, I guess unless you are trying to cash out in the next couple of months, I just don't understand the concern.

I'm not sure what you are talking about...there was plenty of warning.  People like Tone Vays and Crypto Sniper have been warning of this (and much worse) for months.  For a little more upbeat view watch Node Investor....but none of this price action should come as a surprise to anyone.

Are you sure about that?

Also, this is an open-source project.  The idea is that community members contribute additional coding / functionality as they feel needed...the project should continue to grow/evolve over time.

I'm looking forward to a day when people stop quoting roach so we don't have to see his comments in quotes...it kind of defeats the purpose of the ignore button 

everything you need you should be able to find here

If you are actually trying to create your own custom jobs to perform your tasks, feel free to PM me and I can help show you how to convert them into ElasticPL.

Go to XEL's newly published site:  https://xeline.org/

And click on the top link for "What is XEL".  It will give you an idea of some of the types of early use-cases I would expect to fit in XEL.  But in general, XEL if for deterministic problems that can be processed in parallel.

I don't see how anyone could do a comparison w/o looking at the code.  We already know xel has completely different use-cases that any other similar project, so that comparison doesn't do much good.  The difference is that only one of them actually works...but what do I know...keep in mind I'm biased towards xel

Nice work!  It's great to see the project reach this milestone.

You are clearly the idiot here. 

First, ek is the developer on the project and in case you can't read back just a couple posts, you'll clearly see he is still working on the project.

Second, I voluntarily (as in unpaid) provided a fully functional miner for the project simply because I found the concept interesting.  So what now is your expectation...that I spend the rest of my life working on this project for free just to make you (and others like you) money?  You should be happy that someone provided their time working on the project for free in the hopes to move it forward rather than post a bunch of crap. 

And if you want to check on the progress of the project, why would you be looking for updates on the completed miner github, instead of the ongoing work that ek is doing on the compute engine in his github.  It's dicks like you that made it so I have no interest in working on the project anymore.

I agree...for those in IT this is the norm.  I'm just hoping this maintenance will help out the performance of their servers.

I'll put my vote in for 16/02/2018

Ahhh, yes...I like that advise ;-) 

But in all seriousness, I hope people focus on their family and friends during this time of year, and of course their health...the rest of this...this is just fun...enjoy the ride which ever way it may go

This is still the most entertaining thread at bitcointalk.  It spans from "it's going to the moon" to the "sky is falling" and back again....I really hope most here are just kidding around and don't take this so seriously 

I too don't care for "brain wallets" but a while back I was discussing this issue w/ EK and he actually had some pretty good arguments as to why they are preferable in his opinion.  Maybe he can post similar comments here to help explain some of the benefits of a "brain wallet" vs the tradition QT wallet.

But rest assured, your coins are safe either way.

ByRallier, can you please check your PM's...I believe mr.coinzy reached out to you several days ago offering to take over the website, etc.

I personally have complete trust in mr.coinzy and hope you follow through with your offer to turn over the website.

byrallier, can you please provide some clarification regarding this tweet?  As you already know I think its a mistake to market xel prior to the compute engine being released, but that's not my call.  But what I'm unclear of is where this marketing firm is going to get the detailed information about how xel works and what it's used for.  Even I don't fully understand all the technical aspects behind xel.

I think they could do a lot of damage if they present a lot of information about xel that is not factual.  Either way, just didn't want anyone to think I was involved with this marketing campaign.

Well, I'm not buying the dips...can't speak for ek...but if you guys are driving the price into the ground thinking this is a good investment strategy I'll bet that you are wrong (but I could be wrong).  In my opinion you are just helping drive all the fud arguments and scaring off those that are truely interested in what we are doing here.  Pretty soon, you'll own a whole lot of nothing...

and just for further clarification, (as some may truly not understand this)...both ek and I work on our local computers...we push code to github as needed (to share what we've done with each other, or simply to serve as a backup).  Neither of us push code there, just to show people like tomkat that progress is being made.

I'm am still confused by the comments I see around this project...so many other project have little or no development, and people just continue to support it as they believe in the idea.  For whatever reason, this project has so many people that demand frequent updates, it's unreal.

If you don't believe in the idea behind the project or the work that is being done, please just move on to something else.
