RE: How does it look to be helping behind the scenes?

Thanks! Yeah the more people that know how it works the better really. Funny thing replayWithParallelDbConpare used to be for when I ran tests from syncing from genesis block comparing against a parallel local copy of the chain table, now repurposed for tailing other sidechain nodes.

I think that so far is working fine... more than 24 hours without getting stuck. 😎

Still, wondering why only me... maybe there is a condition (such as lack of IO or something) that causes the natural way of writing via mongo... or the fact that using more vCPUs (6 in my case) changes the way mongo writes? 🤷‍♂️

Either way, it would be nice if it could be tested with more people.

Familiar with programming, in the Army back in the 90’s I was taught Ada language. Then I went on into system admin and never returned to programming because honestly I was intimidated.
What do I need in terms of software and hardware to practice and what language should I learn that will give me more insight or works with the blockchain?

I don't really have a good answer for this, but I think skills in one programming language generally carry over a bit to others. From what I've seen most core Blockchain code written in C++, and you can interact with Blockchain APIs in many other languages... JavaScript, python with plenty of examples of that. Hive for example has an extensive amount of documentation and examples at https://developers.hive.io

Answered perfectly. Thank you…
