We won't agree on everything but also these points below are not disagreements just more thoughts based on what you wrote.
• Usually it is better to view investments in terms of percentages. (a whale selling 1% stake is only 1% to them). Even if the amount they sell is some "outrages" $ number to other people, their % return is dependent on how much they own.
For example, if someone manages a fund of billion dollars and the fund makes 100k a year, that is a terrible return or 0.01%, even if $100k is a lot of money in terms of $s.
• People should not have to agree with Marky on everything to acknowledge HIVE Analytics is badass
I'd like it more if we could design our own queries. I don't like the fact that all the queries are 'canned', designed by Marky himself.
Personally I don't mind the queries the way they are and I actually got more excited it was something Marky did because he is very technical.
Having that functionality to design our own queries would be a nice feature though. It is an interesting idea!
See below. Apparently I am wrong. I do recall reading the queries were all created by Marky, but my memory has failed me before, so I'd believe Marky rather than me, and I do.
That's the neat thing, you can design your own queries. What's stopping you?
I did try to do so when I took a look at the app, but couldn't find a way to change the username on whatever it was I was trying to do. Later I thought I understood you would consider enabling folks to run their own queries, but felt it wasn't appropriate at that time. You were discussing queries you used specifically regarding abuse.
Anyway, apparently I misunderstood you, and I'm incompetent at query fu. Who'd a thunk it?
I appreciate you providing that information here and setting me straight.
You don't need to use Hive Analytics to run your own queries, you have the power to run any query you like. Hive Analytics was just a means to provide transparency for everyone.
Now I'm confused.
Anywho, this is the language that gave me the impression the Hive Analytics tool didn't support bespoke queries.
Now I think I was right about that, and you tricked me into thinking I was wrong. I have to change my mind again. I'm going to need a mental cabana if this keeps up.
As it is, there is only the on reports created by me. There was going to be more freedom as I added more reports with different "views" and charting options, but it was always going to be reports created by me, but I did ask for suggestions (which I didn't receive many). There was over 100 more reports coming.
My comment was referring to you being able to make any report you like, you don't need me or Hive Analytics. It's a public blockchain, it's all out there available to you.
Sorta like the human genome. It's all public and folks can do whatever they have the chops to do.
