kleinbl00's donations

bits to available to donate: 21267.45 bits

total donated to Hubski: 11450.0 bits

total donated to users: 11450.0 bits

donation settings

bits donated per share (0 to 3500): 50 percent of donation given to Hubski (0 to 100): 50

You tell me. What did we learn? I think that the raw math on that says I "generated" like 9000 bits but as simple as your model is, the economics are giving me a headache.

Yeah, it's crazy. Those 9000 bits came from folk sharing your stuff.

In less confusing news, 'my interactions' is back.

Yay for interactions... But if one person has their donation set for 8500 bits, it's not so impressive. Unless 500 people have theirs set for 1 bit.

Thing is: you're monetizing performance and tying it to an arbitrary metric. You couldn't have designed a more despiriting approach if you tried.

Sounds like a challenge. :)

In other news, don't go for a 13 mile bike ride with a toddler, down a double bourbon and then try to make spaghetti.

I've recently tried washing a donut down with a beer and running 2 miles. Add it to the list.

My most intentionally bro moment was mixing one scoop of Muscle Milk into a Solo cup of Keystone Light. Yep, I drank it all, no problem.

Much like my adventures, that one fails inspection.
