I was a mechanical engineer that transitioned to software engineering back in 2018.  I’m now a senior software engineer developing on Salesforce.  

I’m open to chat if you feel it would be worthwhile on your end.  Brief background - I ended up doing 2 boot camps (12 month self-paced and then 4 month full time immersive) as well as worked as a technical coach of one of the boot camps for 1.5 years, so I have seen a lot of stories, as well as lived one, of those transitioning to programming.

Haha, I like the Tron reference.  No, it is actually a screenshot of the iPhone app from when the MGoApp was a thing.

But we already have MGoPoints!!  How many MGoPoints equal 1 MGoCoin?

I'd just like to clarify for context the CEO and founder is Brendan Eich, the creator of JavaScript and Co-Founder of Mozilla.  I am not saying that invalidates your argument, but I do think it is important to note this isn't being created by a fringe group.

Gameboy, I think you make a valid argument in the case against ad blockers.  With the current advertisement system, the internet remains "free" because advertisements provide the cash flow.  

However, I do think we have hit a point where some resistance is needed.  Users have essentially become the product and their data is really what powers the internet.  As we each own our individual data, I feel we should have the freedom to approve who gets to collect it.

And like Don stated...less porn pop-ups, haha.

My understanding is this is their model, expect the subscription based part is optional.  If you have the subscription feature turned on, you can choose the amount of BAT you'd like to pay per month.  It then divides that up based on the percentage you visit that site.  If 48% of my internet browsing in a month was me looking at MGoBlog, it would pay 48% of my selected BAT allotment to MGoBlog.  

Good point.   

As ST3 mentioned, "Meta" would be a more appropriate title for this thread.

The answer would be yes and no. 

Yes in the fact that the technology is an Ethereum Token (which is a cryptocurrency, like bitcoin).  No in the fact that it's not a post regarding price/future/ect of crytpo.

The relevance for why I posted to MGoBlog would be to see if anyone else has used this to contribute $ to the site.  Occasionally, I see post pop up regarding supporting Brian and Co and felt like this could potentially be an additional avenue to help finance the site. 

• PM me a week before the game, you can come with for free.  The majority of my friends are state fans, so I am always scrambling to find someone to join during november games.
