Falls du den ersten Teil verpasst haben solltest: SteemWorld ~ Weekly Support ~ #1

Working naked under the roof

Since my apartment is on the top floor of this house and we are experiencing a really hot summer here in Germany I had to forgo my work wear in the past days... ^^ The temperature in my room is currently ~29° Celsius, even if it is midnight already. The fan which is standing on my desk is my best friend in these days... 😌

Nevertheless it has been a very busy week for me, not all went as expected, but I'm glad to be able to show you a few new things on SteemWorld.

New features

Settings now in tabs

Vote amount and rshares in all pie charts

User reputation next to the account's name

Account tooltips

By moving the mouse over an account's name and waiting for a few seconds the following tooltip will show up:

Thanks to @aiyumi for reminding me of the missing tabindex-attribute for some of the buttons on the site and the very interesting article about creating better HTML solutions for people with limited eye sight, who need to use screen readers when browsing the web.

I'm already thinking about a solution for being able to open the new tooltip without the need of a mouse ;)

Duplicate account operations fixed

I've made an interesting discovery regarding the field 'id' in the received account operations. One may think that the field contains a unique number for each operation but that is not always the case. It's an op index for one node and can sometimes even change in there, when the node's configuration changed and re-indexing has taken place. Other nodes may have completely different operation IDs for the same operations. Thanks to Steem master @vandeberg for the detailed explanation! The man is a machine... 😁

In the last time there was an issue regarding duplicate operations after switching to a different node and now it's clear to me why that happened. So instead of using the field 'id' I am now building my own IDs by hashing the operations data and adding the ~~block number~~ timestamp to it.

Caching the uncacheable

Sadly the planned caching feature for account operations can not be used. My solution works and SteemWorld would start ~ 3 times faster but there is a problem regarding to the default maximum local storage space of browsers (5 MB). I tried my best and added a string compression algorithm for the op data but it would not be fast enough for all devices/browsers.

One can change the browser setting 'dom.storage.default_quota' (by visiting 'about:config' in Firefox) and set it to a higher limit but I can't do it programmatically. Since I'm now storing all settings in local storage there is a risk of losing the main configuration, therefore I can't activate the new caching logic yet. If I should find a way for separating the config from the other cached data (maybe through coming HTML5 methods) I will activate the feature in future.

Local storage instead of cookies

All settings are now being stored in the browser's local storage and I'm (by default) no longer using cookies on SteemWorld. The conversion happened a few days ago and I hope that nobody has lost his config during the process. For older browsers I've added a fallback to further use cookies.

Why the CSI is 'NA'

The CSI calculation works but I've found a way to trick the algorithm and influence the CSI by voting older posts. I think it is impossible to have a fast, reliable solution on the client side, therefore I need to implement it on my server. I currently have a lot of other more important stuff to realize but I will definitely bring the CSI back to life in future.

@arthur.grafo(70)· 2989d
I saw that your post is older than 6 days - and I felt happy. To me it means you will have many comments of yours, which I can upvote, instead of just once for the article.

I'm looking forward to seeing what the next changes will be, but I also hope you do not ignore the many who have older computers/OS/Browsers
@obsesija(72)· 2990d
Hallo, ich würde ein Empfehlung geben, und zwar, SP Anzeige sollte in 3 stellige Nummer sein, nicht 2 Stellig, nach dem komma, weil, es ist nicht korrekt, das der VP, beispiel, bei 45 Reputation ist nich 0.00$, sondern, 0.001$ oder 0.002$ und so änlich, und das sollte ersichtlich sein. Vorrallem, ist das super für neue Steemians, das die sehen, das der Vote nicht =0$ ist, sondern, eine gewisse Wert hat, auch wenn das 0.001$ ist. Kannst du das so in 3 stellig ändern zu zeigen? Beispiel, steempeak.com macht das so, bei Voting, mann siehet, das der Vote eine gewiesen Wert hat, auch wenn unter 1 cent ist, sollte ersichtlich sein. Gruss - Maya
@red-rose(53)· 2991d
hi my best friend i have a claim/ comment - defect in steemworld - my English is not so good - so please forgive me

since 2 days, i have noticed that, in the steemworld there is huge lagging to load the posts i am posting in my blog inside the recent posts . i posted three posts more and still since 2 days the same details in recent posts not changed. i have tried also my mobile to open the steemworld and the same result i tried to use my friends mobiles and same result

please can you check this point - it is a defect
@pawos(62)· 2992d
lieber @steemchiller, eine anmerkung von mir, weil ich mittlerweile mit einem problem wiederholbar konfrontiert bin. die coming curation rewards laden nicht in safari. wenn ich firefox lade und es darüber versuche, geht es. ich bin aber eigentlich kein firefox-user und würde nur ungern ständig einen zweiten browser öffnen müssen, nur damit mir dort die rewards berechnet werden. aktuell sieht es unter safari so aus, das er anfängt, die rewards zu berechnen, es aber irgendwann hängt und selbst nach einer halben stunde wartezeit werden die 100% nicht erreicht. schau dir das doch bitte mal an. danke und lg.
@bronevik(62)· 2992d
Delegating tab doesn't work. Endless loading
@steemitri(65)· 2992d
Tolle Arbei wie immer! Ich glaub es hat einen bug bei "Coming Curation Rewards"... Ich sehe doppelte Zahlen. Gruss
@jznsamuel(72)· 2992d
Can't imagine my steem life without steemworld. You've done a phenomenal job, 100% upvote... Keep up the amazing work...
@wolfenlord(60)· 2993d
I feel for ya bro... last summer we had a huge drought here in Argentina, and temperatures on my area reached 40ºC on some days... I had to live in the bathtub. The climate is going to hell....
@shine.wong(53)· 2993d
Thank you for the contribution! Maybe I find a mistake. Recent Posts->Newest post->Transfers I don't transfer about this post, but it views I had Transfer Amount is 1SBD😂

I checked this 4 times transfers, that are unrelated about my newest post.
@udabeu(72)· 2993d
I am really thankful for your work on Steem World. I use it ever time I use Steemit. If I had more power I would give you more of my voting power. Please go on, and Thanx again.
@klippengeist(51)· 2993d
Cooles Teil, das Du da zusammengebraten hast, @steemchiller

Mögest Du eines Tages fett dafür belohnt werden...
@petervroom(62)· 2994d
@steemchiller steemworld is a great site! Thanks. I noticed some weeks ago when the market dropped and the SBD print rate went down that the estimated payout was wrong. You may well have fixed this by now but just in case. I moved to using steemit's estimated payout so it's no biggie but I do like the rich feature set you have provided. A lot of work I'm sure.
@welovesteemit(51)· 2994d
Thank you. Resteemed :-)
@hangted(37)· 2994d
@c0wtschpotato(58)· 2994d
You might consider running for a witness spot. That would enable you to earn enough for the upkeep of your service. And according to the amount of votes on this, you got a solid supportlevel.
@lichtblick(77)· 2994d
Full 100% and resteemed :-) Good work.
@felixxx(73)· 2995d
Sometimes it feels like @vandeberg is the only person actually working @ stinc.
@afrog(69)· 2995d
Chiller. Aufgrund von Browsercache, Schlaf, Frühstück und ich weiß nicht was, habe ich eben erst deinen 2 Tage alten Weekly Support gefunden. Den solltest du fest in der Steemworld verdrahten. Da geht er mir nicht durch die Lappen (Lappen – @chriddi hattest du das schon?). Chill on.
@dunstuff(63)· 2995d
awesome updates. makes my work a lot easier . tyvm
@andyjaypowell(75)· 2995d
Das mit der Reputation am Namen finde ich klasse! Sah auf den ersten Blick aus wie ein TM (Trademarkzeichen)... ...aber auch nur, weil ich kurzsichtig bin! ;-)
@palasatenea(60)· 2995d
This service it's great, helps a lot to use my account, congrats for your excellent work.
@el-nailul(61)· 2995d
it is getting more awesome @steemchiller, keep going on my friend, you have done really great thing on this platform.
@curatorcat(73)· 2995d
Excellent work as usual @steemchiller! Like the new "hover" feature, and it's a nice bonus to have the reputations showing.

Hope these weekly update posts are serving their purpose of giving you the extra funding you need.

=^..^=

What is the procedure for reporting/processing bugs for Steemworld?
@spite77(58)· 2995d
Irgendwas scheint nicht rund zu gehen schau mal ein wenig länger auf https://steemworld.org/@spite77 :/

Thanks so much for your efforts @steemchiller on providing new features to us. I would encourage you to make it mobile asap, you know... Best regards
@roleerob(71)· 2996d
Fairly new to our Steem Community and to SteemWorld, just reading this post, with a link supplied by @abh12345.

Thank you @steemchiller (insufficient words, but all I have ...) for all of your hard work to create and maintain this very valuable interface to our Steem blockchain.

I hope to learn more about its capabilities in the future, but already find it to be an invaluable aide for day-to-day use.

Upvoted 100%, resteemed, and now following!
@nakedverse(69)· 2996d
Its Excellent what you do , keep up the great work , loving the new mouse hover over the upvotes etc ...Nice :)
@gadrian(76)· 2996d
This is the most complete Steem tool I know! Very useful, thank you for developing and maintaining it!
@scorer(58)· 2996d
You should give some hint for the user (animation some kind) that hovering over the username it fetches full details of the profile.
@thetruth36(64)· 2996d
@steemchiller I thank you for the contribution. 100 percent upvote!! :) Have a great day

@aiyumi(61)· 2996d
Whoa, I'm glad you found my article useful!

Thank you for the new features! I really like the user reputation next to the username! A few months ago I was keeping track of those annoying spam followers that follow us the moment we publish a post (mostly low reputation accounts), and thought it'd be nice to be able to check the reputation without the need to visit the accounts' profile. Now, it came true! :D

Despite the 'aria-describedby,' my screen reader isn't reading the account tooltips (I don't know how other screen readers would behave, and don't have means to test). Sorry, no ideas for a solution at the moment...
@promeilenstein(50)· 2996d
Wenn den Post, in mehreren Sprachen veröffentlichst, z.b deutsch, denselben Blog in Englisch, dann könnte ich 2x Upvoten. Ich würde es tun 😁
@amr008(68)· 2996d
I am surprised I haven't come across this amazing site till now . Amazing work dude :) Very helpful . I wanted that Curator stats very badly , thanks .
@muscara(70)· 2997d
Da mein Vote noch nichts wert ist schicke ich dir zusätzlich in Gedanken eine kühle Brise :)
@amart29(72)· 2997d
Excellent work, I like that now I can see the reputation of the steemian in the list of account operations
@manncpt(70)· 2997d
You will always get my support @steemchiller, great work! :)
@crypto-econom1st(58)· 2997d
How should I interpret the amounts for my future author rewards?

A. The $45.83 includes curator fee, correct? B. 13.436 SP is excluding curator fee. In other words the net amount that I will receive. Correct? C. 19.146 SBD is also net pay out amount excluding curator fees? Part of this SP will be paid out as liquid Steem right now. Correct?
@onnovocks(50)· 2997d
You Rock!! Stay cool, it's going to get a little hotter for us over the next few days. Schöne grusse.
@stimu(44)· 2997d
Wunderbare Quickinfos! Hier bin ich mit mein kleines upvote um Steemworld zu unterstützen...!
@ylich(77)· 2997d
Das sind ja grossartige Neuigkeiten. Also, weiter so! :-D
@bashadow(70)· 2997d
Great update, I like the rep number, small unobtrusive, and the mouse over information.
@sayemsonai(49)· 2997d
I am new to your post. But You have a great post. Steem is the best blockchain ever! I've never experienced an online community where my desire to create has been so uninhibited. I'm free to create content as I wish and others are free to read it. The beauty is in the simplicity and uncensored nature of this system that affords us a place to be free and explore. There is no place like home and Steemit, to me, feels closer to home than I've ever gotten before as a creator. Truly a blockchain of opportunity and for that, I say thank you so much.
@lynncoyle1(64)· 2997d
Nice work as usual @steemchiller! I love the new 'hover mode' to see details too :) Thank you again for such a wonderful program overall; I really don't know how I'd manage without it!
@abh12345(80)· 2997d
Hey @steemchiller

I'm wondering if another column would be of use in this table. Looks like it could be tight with regards to space, but what about the STEEM payout coming from authored content at present?

Cheers for the best tool for eyes on your account 👍🏾 👏🏽 😁
@dreimaldad(66)· 2997d
Super Arbeit. Die Idee mit den Quickinfos finde ich total genial. Ich hoffe das Dir die Ideen unter deinem heißen Dach nicht ausgehen. Weiter so. Steemworld wird von Woche zu Woche immer besser.
@lemony-cricket(63)· 2997d
Very cool that the rep is now showing, and the tooltips when hovering an account name are awesome! It's getting better and better all the time.

I love what you do! You'll always get a vote from me.
@peter2017(59)· 2997d

I like to use this tool is the one that keeps me informed. Thank you
@sansoncarrasco(54)· 2997d
It's great to know how all work under the hood. The account preview is great (you call it account tooltip). I'd like to give you some feedback regarding usability. But a comment is not the appropriate channel.

Thank you for all the great work. SteemWorld is the best.
@reverendrum(62)· 2997d
Thanks for all the hard word y'er doin', matey!

@sparkesy43(60)· 2997d
Great stuff as always. Spotted the "rep" addition this morning and like it a lot.
