1- Why a good programmer with 10 years of experience like you is searching job   You must be working in a big company!!
2- You didn't searched anything about the job you was sending CV???. Do you send your CV like mailshot???

dude your facts talk before you. If you judge others, others will judge you... Is the cause-efect.

Don't judge to don't be judged.

Yes, he must have a damn good gut feeling.

Oh ya man not getting jobs you don't want is just the worst isn't it?  John must have really bad judgment to pass over such a level headed and well informed candidate.   

You'll get a job one day mate, keep trying.

Ever since Steve Jobs died of cancer I have no problem with him any more, he got what he deserved


I reviewed it and it tells a lot about John Connor. Like seriously, who puts a starting bracket on a new line? It's the ancient way of coding. My grandpa coded like that . But the fact that he uses C++11 code itself to explain his ideas tells us he has no academic background and/or he is having problems explaining himself (+1 for asperger).

But the real problem with his anonymity solution is that it is not novel. Ever since bitcoin was created brilliant minds have been trying to enhance the protocol so that transactions would be truly anonymous. All that has been achieved is by the means of mixing and other messy work with cryptography. Sure it gives you slightly more anonymity than bitcoin in its natural form but it doesn't solve the problem, it only pushes it farther into the future. What I am anxious to see is a new paradigm in the domain of transaction anonymity. Something that would be intrinsic to the protocol. Perhaps it is impossible, I don't know that, but I do know that homomorphic encryption and projects such as sharemind could hold the key to truly anonymous transactions.

I don't know what happens, maybe is the asperger, or all of this genius out there have that kind of attitude... but look at linus torvalds... look at steve jobs... etc... all of them are genius doing what they love/know... but people talk shit about them...

All is very curious  


This paper is the starting of dark++ and vanilla becoming anonymous

Hey I understand your frustration but when I first saw the advertisement and sent the CV I even didn't know it was about a coin development. To be honest, I wouldn't have sent it if I knew it was about a coin The job offering does not say anything about the nature of the project, unfortunately.


Ok that explains it pretty well.

As for the personality and egomania, I have a pretty bad personality myself too and that's why I wouldn't discard John Connor just because of his personality

Good programmers such as myself often come with a cocky attitude, so ironically, in this situation John Connor's personality actually made it more plausible for his code to be good

I read that Vanillacoin aims to become anonymous. Is there any technical information available how it attempts to achieve anonymous transactions? So far all the coins that claim to be anonymous have actually a flawed anonymity which I wouldn't even call anonymity.

The guy sends his CV in to work on the coin and yet doesn't know fuk- all about it. Yeh...

The /r/Vanillacoin troll sold his VNL at .00003000 BTC and was bitter.  Someone on the vanillacoin IRC knew him.  I was there from the beginning and the distribution was fair.  Now, he has a job elsewhere and doesn't bother to come back.  The accelerated few days was when we switched from CPU mining to GPU mining.

CryptoClub is another scammer, like many on here, who has been involved in a lot of coins, most recently EXP.

If you look, you will see the quality of the code is superior to all others.  No BS.

Pasting this:

Again, if it was a clone coin, it wouldn't be the only coin other than Bitcoin that Poloniex only requires 1 confirmation for: You can test this by going here: https://poloniex.com/public?command=returnCurrencies and searching for minconf":1," but you already knew that and the following:

If it was a clone coin, it wouldn't be the only coin with native gui interface as opposed to a qt wallet.

If it was a clone coin, it wouldn't be the only coin that gives you a random port if you don't have a config.dat

If it was a clone coin, it wouldn't be the only coin that automatically burns tx fees.


It has the staking mobile apps already, and the iOS app is already on Apple TestFlight Beta Testing.  Just pm xCore if you want an invite.


Yes, john-connor's personality puts some people off.  You just have to invest in the code.

Hello everyone in this thread. Today someone posted a C++ job advertisement on the bitcoin's block chain:
http://cryptograffiti.info/?txnr=4054
the above link finally guides you here: https://talk.vanillacoin.net/topic/284/job-listings

So, out of curiosity I sent my CV to that John Connor dude. I have 10 years of C and C++ development experience and turned out it didn't satisfy John's needs (for whatever the actual reason was). His e-mails were rather cocky and his reasoning is sort of alien to me from the software developer's point of view. For example, if I was to look for a C++ programmer, I wouldn't immediately discard someone for 10 years of experience as if it was not enough. A good lead programmer chooses their team by the actual skills of people (testing them if needed) not just blatantly stating strange stuff such as "university experience does not count".

Since I'm also a cryptocurrency investor, I started to investigate whether Vanillacoin is worth investment. Here's one article about it that I found particularly interesting:
http://www.cryptocollectorsclub.com/vanillacoin-secrets.html


I laughed when I read this because it proves that John Connor is actually an arrogant person and it was not just me who perceived him as such

I then stumbled upon this reddit section:
https://www.reddit.com/r/VanillaCoin/comments/3b25f6/welcome_to_the_uncensored_vanillacoin_subreddit/

It doesn't paint a nice picture of neither Vanillacoin nor John Connor. I was going to buy some vanillacoins but after reading this stuff I am having second thoughts. Smells like Paycoin all over again. Any reason why this criticism should be discarded? I mean, this could all be just unintentional FUD by me. In that case, prove me wrong.

edit: Initially read this wrong so updated links to things that made sense.

I mean there are some examples:
http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/clams/#charts
http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/counterparty/#charts

And these two that are the more ridiculous:
http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/rubycoin/#charts
http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/faircoin/#charts

Also, remember coins like DASH and DOGE and others were launched during euphoria phase of crypto with lots of easily manipulated traders.  Now traders are not quite as ridiculous with their cash, but the long-term ones aren't around to see the potential of this coin.  Maybe they'll come back or advertising/someone influential can bring BTC holders back to an altcoin.  We'll see.

No, DOGE definitely makes sense.  It's one of the few coins people are getting out of Cryptsy.  People haven't been able to withdraw BTC for a month so they're understandably frightened and willing to pay a 30%+ premium for DOGE (ultimately losing about 25% of their BTC) to get their coins out of there.

you call me scammer just because I'm a good investor and know the time to enter and left some coins?

What fault do I have if you are a retarded bag holder?

As I said here, if the currency is good, it has nothing to fear for a pump'n'dump. How many times btc was pumped? The pump'n'dumps took the btc from deepweb and a value of $10 to put him where it is today.

Even shit coins as dash survive and keep an excellent value if the devs do not do bullshit and continue delivering good features.

Vanilla is the best currency in development right now. But it already has 1 year old and this is not few time.

Already could have a big hype because of zerotime. There is no problem about it. Only retarded think that hype and marketing are problems. In reality it is the lifeblood of any business.

John Connor already proved that delivers everything he promises, I have no reason to dump all my coins and leave VNL. But of course I intend to make some profit if there's a pump, the same way I do with BTC. And you can be sure my profits don't will hurt the currency because vnl already has proven that it is a good coin.

But what kind of thinking wait from a beggar like you, who puts to sale the  own profile to get a few cents.

I'm looking at the FCT chart and see they had quite a long period with 0-5 BTC daily volume, and now they have 2K. Maybe we'll see this for VNL sometime, maybe not. The thing that bothers me is that FCT has been around for only about 4 months. And all altcoins that had huge pumps which I remember, reached their ATH price during 6 months since launch, all of them. Do you remember any exceptions to this rule (after 2013 BTC pump)?

Doge is in top volume right now ffs. Crypto is not being rational and neither are people here.

My sentiments exactly

This is one cryptocurrency where patience really is a virtue.

Invest what you can afford, hold and build a superpeer if you can - this is the only winning strategy.

I think some of you:

A - invested more than you can afford
B - gambled on a second pump scenario in a short period of time
C - are impatient little f#ckers

No matter if you are A,B or C, you didn't do your homework very well...
John was open and honest about this from the start...this is no copy paste p&d coin but a long term investment... Sure i would like to buy an extra 100k, but I can't afford to miss this amount of money for several months ( up to a year), so I don't, it's that simple...

Invest what you can and be patient... You will be rewarded, big time, believe me...

You can say that about just about every coin because just about every one has been a pump and dump scam with only gimmicks.  Zero conf txs are not a gimmick.  Scalability of nodes and scalability of block size are not gimmicks.

I'm not saying VNL is a sure bet, but it's the first coin actually trying to solve the problems that Bitcoin devs are working on or are frustrated with.

Emiliomann is well known scammer on Bitcointalk.org forum.

Check his history. He was a famous cheerleader of NAV, XST, Crave, BLOCK. He supported all these coins till their pumps. After the pump he dumped all these coins and he abandoned them.

Now he is VNL bagholder, but as soon as VNL`s price pumps he will quickly sell VNL, abandon it and jump on other coin.

Don`t believe what this scammer will tell you and trade with care.

yep, as always you're spreading fud here.
