Progress update

What progress have you made since your last update?

None, unfortunately.

What are your next steps?

I'm making some progress towards open-sourcing my bot, and still plan to post a writeup about the Fire-the-CEO markets, but that might take a backseat to my other priorities.

Is there anything others could help you with?

I'd appreciate hearing from any bot owners about how they run their bot - there are at least 3 different open-source Manifold APIs written in Python, so if anyone's tried more than one I'd like to know how they compare.

Sorry for slacking on posting an update! Not sure anyone's still evaluating, but I at least owe investors an update here.

  • Fire the CEO markets are live at manifold.markets/FireTheCEO! Still need to do some writing-up to sell them to the public. Making their own website showing which CEOs the market thinks should be fired would be a great addition, so I'll look into that, but no promises.

  • My mood market is going very well! Some great suggestions, which I ought to put into action with some commitment devices. Planning on keeping it going for at least a few months to see how it improves.

  • No progress on the bot front, but I've taken a look at the existing Manifold Python libraries and found them lacking, so I think that open-sourcing mine would be a great step for the community even without the bot.

Some updates:

  • Fire the CEO markets are nearly ready! Keep an eye on manifold.markets/FireTheCEO 👀🔥🧑‍💼

  • I’m still planning to do the lifestyle market, just need to finish fine tuning the format. I’m thinking that I’ll offer a bounty for good suggestions in some way, which should encourage some activity and get people thinking. I’m a little worried about my privacy, but I think I should be fine.

  • NcyBot is on the back burner, but I’ve got some good ideas for improvements. Cleaning up the code sufficiently well to make it open source is a ways down the todo list, though.

Thanks heaps for cancelling this!

That project you linked to doesn't have a higher minimum; it's still at $100. It's a project for everything I do other than this live show. Joshua and I are taking our time with putting a new proposal up to make sure we get it right

Good to know! Some boosts and subsidies would help a lot with promotion - we’ll probably have to experiment to see how much is ideal.

Thanks for the investment!
