@vibronet So sorry to hear this. Among your other contributions, I'll always remember the disgusting pictures you drew to make us laugh in meetings at Microsoft. I miss you.

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@dunnry Yeah, except we didn't get 5 minutes to review. :⁠-⁠)

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@leahculver Did you order it?

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@vibronet @ntotten I'm sorry that happened to you.

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@GNSPS My favorite resource for that (because I wrote it): https://t.co/JGVx3ec954

@factoidforrest Every time I look for a Ropsten faucet the ones I used to use are gone and new ones have popped up. :-) I haven't tried in quite awhile.

@DoryZaih That's the transaction where you're trying to tell Capture the Ether that you've already completed the challenge. Can you share the transaction where you're calling callme() on your challenge contract?

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@DoryZaih Did you figure this out yet? If you need help, maybe share a transaction ID here or post it to the subreddit.

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@r3v3ndx Just opened my DMs.

I've been at Metronome for about a year now. I work with an incredible team on a huge opportunity. If you're interested, we're hiring: https://t.co/pES51keXTm

@leahculver "I just picked a whole bouquet of oopsie-daisies."

@ImAllInNow This looks to be the actual issue. Interestingly enough, it links to a blog post I wrote. :-) https://t.co/VThHo3UUAG

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@ImAllInNow Out of gas rarely means there was actually not enough gas. It usually just means the transaction failed for some reason (e.g. one of the `require` statements failed).

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@ImAllInNow Yeah, I'm surely missing context here since I haven't heard of FTX. But generally, I don't understand what poker has to do with this except as one example of a reason someone might want to borrow cash against another asset.

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@ImAllInNow I don't get this... no reason you have to make a long-term borrow and watch the ETH price. You could just borrow for a few days for a tournament.

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@ImAllInNow Not sure what gas fees are like these days. But you'd have to pay SOMEONE to escrow money, handle payments, etc. Not sure whether Ethereum is cheaper or not than other middlemen would be.

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@ImAllInNow I don't think this is specific to poker, and it's already solved? It's pretty easy on Ethereum to borrow a stablecoin by putting up ether as collateral. Search "DeFi lending." All on-chain with smart contracts, so fairly low cost (but the loans are heavily overcollateralized).

[Steve Marx @smarx]

@hubbersnaks Is this a question about Capture the Ether? Pop open the console if it's still happening... my guess would be hitting the daily Infura limit?
