RE: Steem API Basics - Part 1: Parsing Post Payloads with Ruby
Talk about specific, say, Steemit is logging exact time/space of post content into metadata?
What would happen in 10, 20 years, impermeable digital history? Incredible the amount of information here, could Steemit model the Unsinkable Library of Alexandra?
Like a friend and I say, to the future, BLOCKCHAIN IT!
Put it on the blockchain indeed! Having public access to this timestamp data gives an awesome layer of transparency into the platform -- everyone knows when a change has been made.
There's an incredible amount of data here when you start cross-referencing all the information -- financial trends, account engagement, whale activity, etc. The @steemsmarter project has a lot of cool stuff in development around these areas and I look forward to sharing it with the Steem community soon.
If it hasn't been overstated at this point, mining cryptocurrency to mitigate large data crunching operations is a no-brainer passive income stream. While servers are calculating huge metric data, of populations, migration patterns, analyzing genetic anomalies, the movement of celestial bodies over great amounts of time, why not have solutions-driven protocols mine token coin rewards to the hundreds of scientists, writers, and technicians inputting their studies towards funding the project with the research itself?
Of course, healthcare and medical information systems come to mind. Mining operations can retail their server processing power (STEEM power delegation) to a billing processor or file archive (Steem Dollar Token), to encrypt patient data inputs to a remote storage, and patient authorizes inputs with biometric private key access. I can't help but figure that capitalism/consumerism would be replaced with kind of gamified techno-conservatism aimed at energy efficiency in every factor.
Hospitals can interpolate patient biometric information without having to actually handle the data because as metric is inputted into the system, it is encrypted into passive submissions to a blockchain accessible by smart contract based, self-executing applications. Patients live their lives and doctors (rather A.I) can intelligently advise based on instantaneous access to real-time information from anywhere in the world.
Stop me if I'm getting ahead of myself, but maybe this is the future already? I'm ready!
Time is Art. In Life, all we have is Time. Why not make Art all the Time?

Thanks to their loyal support, I am able to create a passive income stream that funds my creative output and delivers this original content directly to YOU.
