This is impressive and hugely respectable at the same time. I'm working on a ratings site using zero-knowledge cryptography, would you mind if I reach out?


I created a simple bot that leverages the fact that the greatest web3 developers build and curate in public. I built it for web3 because (1) I work around these technologies and (2) the content curation in web3 is still a mess and there are no current good blogs out there that curate the best stuff in an agile way.

Every 24h, @stargazoor publishes a twitter thread that contains a self-curated list of open-source projects. Each project has, at least, 3 curated web3 developers starring it over the previous 24h.

These parameters may change in the future once the developer base grows.

I created @stargazoor under 3 premises:

a. Devs collect discoveries that they don't want to forget

b. Devs like to know and collect what the greatest devs know and collect

c. It's hard to find web3 alpha without coding

Would appreciate your feedback: 1. What do you think of the idea? 2. What are other tech verticals that could benefit from this idea? 3. Would it make sense to add a weekly newsletter on top?


Used to run all my bots (less than 5, doing each 30min - 1hr of computation daily) in Heroku using the free dynos, now moved them all to a Raspberry Pi I had from years ago that I dusted off for this.


What do the bots do?



Curious on the distribution of the duration of immigrants in Canada. Any data points on this?


It's be hard to track the number who stay and for how long. Just because they're coming to Canada doesn't mean they stay long term. Many immigrate, explore, then move on. Others hope that Canada is a softer immigration path into the US. This seems to have some Merritt in the past, though I'm not sure how effective that strategy is now.

Anyways, here's one source https://www.statista.com/statistics/443063/number-of-immigra...


This survey said up to 30% of young immigrants may leave within two years.

https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/young-immigrants-may-leave-can...

I have heard this elsewhere, that Canada loses a lot of its immigrants either to return or another destination (most likely the US).

The rate of immigration is not as high as the headline number for this reason, but 20% of Canada's population is still foreign born which exceeds the historical peak in the US during the 1900s and 1910s.
