Title: [CLOSED] Looking for my first 1 cent BTC job :)
Post by: max on April 16, 2011, 01:30:53 PM
Hello everyone. This is my first post here. I'm testing how Bitcoin works and maybe getting to know some people in the process.

What does one have to do to earn 0.01 BTC around here? ;)

To give you some idea of what I'm looking for: I work in tech support and do some web development / programming on a side. But honestly it can be completely unrelated to that, I'm just looking for something that doesn't take much time, even if it is something silly. :)

You can send the requests here or to my email address: max.bloomquist@gmail.com. I will mark this thread as "[CLOSED]" when I will accept the job. My Bitcoin address is: 13974Df1nXjqtQdKETHopgewbgffrcoFFF

What languages are you skilled in and can you point us to some examples of your code?

Make a contribution, no matter how minor, to any open source project you'd like. I'll send you 0.05 BTC :)

Slovenian is my first language and English is the only other language I know.

Most of the programming I did was in PHP (some in PHP framework Symfony), but I'm also familiar with other programming languages (Python, Perl to name two).

I don't have any code samples I can share, but if you are not satisfied with the results, you don't have to pay.

Yes, have a look at this, https://gitorious.org/black-market

Python

This is a client for the soon to be released bitcoin stock market, and it needs to be made easy to install on Linux and Windows.

Build a distribution package (especially for windows) that would be super, I'll pay... 30bitcoin

I'm updating that source code at the moment so just let me know if you'll do it and then wait about a day.

I got my first cent, but still have a question about this, does any contribution count, not only coding? E.g. translation / documentation / bug reporting / packaging?

I don't have any experience with packaging python software for windows, but I will look at it latter on today and let you know if I accept this job.

Sorry, I can't take credit for that.

Any contribution :) For 0.05 BTC I can't be too picky!

Make sure to PM if you complete the task, otherwise I might forget about it and forget to send you the coins.

If I see correctly this a command line program? Are you updating it to include GUI?

So the idea is to get the basic functionality done on the command line, this will allow others to use it as a library(kind of), once we're happy with the command line client we'll be doing a native GUI.

And then for those more interested in convienience than security a web based client.

That was me, noone should have no balance. :D Normally, you can get 0.05 BTC at https://freebitcoins.appspot.com/ but it’s being fixed at the moment.

Turns out creating installation program for this program is a bit more complicated than I thought it was, so I'm not accepting the job. Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.

I will hover provide a guide about installing it on Windows XP and maybe someone can use this information as a basis for creating a Windows installation program.

Thanks again Blitzboom. :)

Nefario I have sent you a simple installation program, but I'm not sure the message was actually sent as I don't see it in my Outbox here.
