Hi Steemit!
What a week, as with a lot of witnesses, I have been spending a lot of time this week updating nodes to 19.3. Over the week I have updated 4 witness nodes, 1 seed node, and 4 full nodes. All currently are running steemd version 19.3.
Witness Hardware
I am currently running multiple witness nodes across Canada, Germany, and the US with a seed node in Canada.
Full RPC Nodes
I currently manage four Steem full RPC nodes, two are public 512GB Ram NVME servers and two are private servers.
Witness Position
I am currently witness #49, thanks to everyone who has voted me as witness.
What do I do?
I spend a lot of time researching and identifying spam, plagiarism, and scams. I created and maintain a very large blacklist which is available to spam fighters, bots, and curators. There are currently over 3,200 users who have been identified and added by individually by myself.
I also spend a lot of time in #witness channels helping other witnesses and discussing Steem related topics.
Also write a lot of tutorial posts on topics from Crypto Hardware Wallets, Programming, and Steem related. I recently started a Python Tips series that you can find here.
My Python Tips Series
- f-strings in Python 3.6
- Underscores in numeric literals
- A better interactive shell
- Secrets Module - New in 3.6
- PEP 8
- Slices
- Named Tuples
- Destructuring
If you find the series helpful, let me know.
As always, I like to end with something different. My son is in love with the game Fortnite, which means I play a lot of Fortnite. I stream on dLive and YouTube off and on and play as themarkymark if anyone ever wants to join. Just let me know when you send an invite so I know it isn't a pub user (which I typically decline).
