Can you teach the uninitiated - does this solar thingy run/is able to run Pis on rainy/darker days too?

I'm testing this atm. It should run >30 hours without sun.

The solar RasPI NXT node is now running 1day 7 hours, but it was a sunny day today in germany. Battery 1 (connected to solar panel) is still @ 100%.

...

This seems a somewhat high wattage to me. I mean, you've even undervolted the machine, haven't you?

For comparison, my cubietruck node pulls 0.35 Amps (-> 1.75W) from the solar setup, measured by multimeter in the middle. This is for baseline load with the cubie on at base clock & base voltage. When I "let is loose" to 1.25GHz and max voltage with full 200% load, it draws close to 0.8 Amps (-> 4W). Then of course, also with much better performance than a Pi could come up with.

Is your 5V conversion somehow really inefficient perhaps?

You can't compare measure the wattage from wall and from 5V line, we don't know the efficiency from 235Volt to 5V. Next week I will be able to measure the solar setup.

The 5V conversion is from the original 5V/1,2A Power supply by RS-Online. And yes I think it is not very efficient 70 - 80%. Next thing is my RasPI uses a wlan adapter, does your cubietruck too? These wlan adapter can use up to 1,5W. Some of them arriving next week also, so I have something to test Wink

AM Contest entry

It's a decentralized storage of URI's on top of Nxt AM. The app allows you to add a new URI with description and search among existing records.

Examples of usage
1. Decentralized storage of torrent files (in form of magnet links);
2. Decentralized DNS: add records like this: URI - , description - ;
3. Decentralized storage of bookmarks;

How it works
The storage is a list of following records: {, }. Information is stored in JSON-formatted Nxt AMs sent to predefined Nxt ID.

How to add torrent file
1. Download torrent file; you need to convert it to the magnet link to publish (will take <1min).
2. Go to the app page: http://95.85.8.113:9000/nxtnet
3. Go to link "torrent to magnet link converter (external)".
4. Upload torrent file there, copy the magnet link to clipboard.
5. Return back to the app page.
6. Paste the magnet link to the URI field.
7. Add description.
8. Add it!

@CfB, @JeanLucPicard:

Server part, should have some configuration option in web.xml,
that would disallow communication with hosts running version lower than required

i.e:
Code:

minimumVersion
0.5.11


I still see hosts with 0.5.3, 0.5.5, 0.5.7, 0.5.8, sending or receiving data from <0.5.10 is waste of time

This won't work when we have more implementations of the core.

It could be combination of both core + version, so
Code:

minimumVersion
NRS 0.5.11; .NXT 0.0.5.0


(second one is minusbalancer's dotNXT)

if app is not specified default actiot would be to "accept"

Also I am the moderator of /r/NXT now. But there is a problem. The 2. moderator promoted me and left the group. But the oldest one is still inside and I asked him to leave, so I can build this subreddit to something big. I know that I can create a request, so he will be kicked. But I need 500 points in total, and I have about 40 to few.. He wasn't online since a few days, thus he didn't responded to my mails yet.

So if someone has connections to reddit so they can promote me to the only moderator it will be quite good. Or we should think about sth where I can get my latest 40 upvotes so I can request it.

Then we will form a reddit team which will maintain it.

Can you give us the link to where we need to go?
I've been active in /r/nextcoin and /r/nxtcoin for a few days now and the community there wants them both to merge anyway.

If we upvote you we can just drop these both, so we can lose the "coin" part, too.

I can put up a post in both to direct them to where we need them and make a clean switch.

Edit: thanks, I'll get on it.

I have generated a javadoc as a preview of what the public API of 0.6.0 looks like at the moment:

https://nxt.airdns.org:7875/doc/

This is for Java developers planning to use this API directly instead of the http/json based interface. It is of course subject to change. Private and package-local classes and methods are not included, in case you wonder why so few classes.

Me and CfB decided to start applying the asset exchange related bugfixes and new APIs to the 0.6 branch, and start using that for testing the AE. This means the 0.6 branch may get released even before the database transition, which I will work on in a different branch, depending on when the AE functionality is ready.

R U working on nxtion? someone here mentioned quite cool list of features.
If nxtion would have them, I believe it could beat both nxtcoin and nxtcrypto forums Wink

Oh, I've found it:

There's a lot that could be done to help with communication. Instead of just a traditional forum (section -> thread -> post), there could additionally be support for the following, e.g.
 
-instead of giant quote pyramids, there could be slashdot/reddit tree-style threads.
-people like salsa, pin and joefox are making regular aggregator link posts, which is great. Even better if these could be stickied. Better still imo, if the most important links and their description could be displayed directly, instead of having to go into the stickied post to find them. Basically, the more important and/or the more people it involves, the more visible it should be.
-more options to customize what you want to follow than just a watchlist. Maybe a reddit style way of assembling favourite subreddits. Maybe topic tags for threads and posts.
- I've mentioned summary and definitions of technical terms before. Maybe a small, fixed frame/window for summary of the ongoing discussion (update permissions decided by topic starter say?) Mouseover technical terms/acronyms to get definitions (maybe these could be databased in our wiki? What do you think joe?)
- maybe integration of real-time communication tools like gdocs or the old Google Wave, or at least a chatbox.
- personally, I'd love LaTeX support so that I can write math using less English

Lots of possibilities. But most importantly, the site admins and devs need to experiment with ideas like this and interfaces. Find out what works best for most folks.

nxtcrypto, are you guys (or anyone else) up for this? I don't know web coding, so even though I suggest all this, I can't help with the implementation Sad I can do interface mockups though. And the LaTeX support part, if you guys are interested in adding that, I can help. Let me know. Smiley

Sorry, I was quite busy today/yesterday and I didn't saw that comment. I will head into the direction of this poll.

I also thought about this:


Can you PM me which features do you want to see the most? Smiley I'm currently thinking about doing a NXT reddit. (with the different discussion areas)

If we can get a specific sum in NXT I could also take a break for a few months and working full-time on this.

Okay. Thanks. You can also write me an email at [email protected]

I like the reddit idea more. There you can create subreddits like "economy", "trading", "websites", "services" etc.. I'm not sure about the up and down voting, because this have to be on my database, and not on the blockchain.

For general voting I could also create an extra section for this on nxtion, where you have to vote with your account. The more NXT you send, the more voting points you got for the topic.


My goal is to make an api later, so that everyone can create it's own nxtion clones, but still based on my blockchain data.



Also I am the moderator of /r/NXT now. But there is a problem. The 2. moderator promoted me and left the group. But the oldest one is still inside and I asked him to leave, so I can build this subreddit to something big. I know that I can create a request, so he will be kicked.

Sorry if misunderstanding but can we give you upvotes? We need a link to your profile?

Thanks for reposting gimre. In fact I may have found one solution to our communications problem.

I've been checking out diaspora*. It's like a (semi-)decentralized Facebook, twitter and forum all rolled into one. The main idea is you make a post (e.g. on your "stream" (wall), or reply to someone somewhere), then you can tag it with twitter-like hashtags, e.g. #nxt, #nxtmarketing, #nxtwhitepaper. The open-source free and brower-based software lets you filter for and follow specific hashtags.

I might not have all the details right, but this is the gist of it. It's difficult to explain in words, and even screenshots. How about we give it a try, see if folks like it and find it helpful? I'm "zahlen" on the network, add/follow me and #nxt, or ask me to add you.


EDIT: Oops, it's not open-source.

EDIT 2: diaspora seems best suited for updates and keeping everyone informed of what's going on, rather than a place to go into details.

EDIT 3: It doesn't support comment editing! Boo! (Maybe I can make a feature request, if we do use diaspora)
