Just couple days ago I said there will be 2 testnets, then I was corrected that there won’t be no testnets, now I’m asked why I am saying there won’t be no testnets.
I have no new opinion on testnet (or whatever it’s called according to new terminology). I always considered there should be at least two (one with fake coins and fake data, another with fake coins and real data).
Perhaps it would be more helpful to:
avoid making unnecessary terminology changes that cause confusion, and
make necessary terminology changes to terms that cause confusion (e.g. DNS, NFS)
Someone’s having a laugh
Where I come from: “Just couple days ago I said there will be 2 testnets, then I was corrected that there won’t be no testnets, now I’m asked why I am saying there won’t be no testnets.” translates to - Just couple days ago I said there will be 2 testnets, then I was corrected that there will be testnets, now I’m asked why I am saying there will be testnets.
Of course it is. That’s why I don’t pay much attention to it.
Interesting if it were a betting pool, though. That, plus more people participating might start to get interesting. Even uneducated guesses over a large number of people can have uncanny accuracy.
Here, the wishful thinking factor cripples us. So I stopped trying to augur it.
