hhhmm...interesting.
I guess we have to wait and see if someone wins.
Want to bet?
What kind of bet are we talking about?
I think no one will win within 3 days. We can bet 1k sats and you say if you think it's going to be before or after that. I'm going to take the opposite side.
There is 1k.
I think someone will get it within 3 days.
COME ONE SLACKERS, DONT LET ME DOWN!
lol, you didn't had to proof you own 1k sats by giving them to me already
But I'll simply give you 2k sats if you win now
The bet is on!
Is there an API that can be used to post comments from a script? I think I might be able to swing it.
There is stacker.news/api/graphql which shows you the schema of our GraphQL API but that's all documentation we provide. You have to add your cookie to the request headers to get authenticated API access.
May I have API access? I'd like to try my hand at this problem.
We don't give out API keys at the moment.
But as mentioned, it's possible with cookies, just less convenient.
Off the bat, you have a 1/1000 chance of winning unassisted.
With a program you could have it post 30ish times, and get the difference between the submission time and server time to find out network latency. Get the 95% confidence interval of all those trial latencies and start posting that much time before the beginning of the next second. Should take about 20 tries after that depending on the variance.
I imagine even with a program it's going to be hard due to network latency etc.
But I'm going to write a script to verify timestamps!
