I guess attending a real hackathon was a little too hard, so you went for the meme. Congrats. I hope the photo-op with Vitalik or whatever was worth it, because that's 36 hours you're never going to get back. Solidity and (g)eth are a joke, and so is your testnet.
Also, it would be nice if people stopped plastering 'crypto' as a prefix to their shitty tech. Cryptography is a highly respectable academic field, and deserves far better than to be associated with these "hackathons".
Just call it a web app hosted on AWS as a front end to a Go binary next time, thanks.
It's definitely out of fashion, but when something complicated breaks, where is the "adult" you call to figure it out? :)
I do 100% agree that commercial systems / enterprise / game dev is past the low level era, but the knowledge of the area is anything but obsolete for the reason I mentioned before.
