-=- @themarkymark shares with us an updated list of accounts who are scaring newer users with worthless down votes. He states that some of these new "Steemit Defense League" accounts are using sexual innuendo to worsen the effect. Through his countless efforts to help clean up Steem he has also submitted a pull request to get the delegation removed from these accounts as well. As he has done for the prior accounts discovered. Consider voting him for witness for spending his time working for us. -=-
Peach / Watercolor painting Process and Techniques
-=- Art is full of beautiful and intriguing things that come in many forms and many colors. We are used to seeing the final result of it, but the process of making it is as interesting as what we get once it is done. Today, @shibasaki presents us a watercolor painting of a peach, after being inspired by his peach tree. He shows us every step of the process of painting, from the pencil sketch to the final details. He also explains the techniques he uses and includes lots of images for us to understand and appreciate everything better. Go check the post and learn how to paint peaches! -=-
-=- Curiosity is part of the nature of human beings and it is the reason why people like to make predictions about things that are going to happen or about things that are in their surroundings. We could say that the accuracy of a person guessing is really low, and it is, but what if we’d tell you that the more people are guessing, the greater the chances of guessing the correct answer? That’s what @phi23 explains in his post about the “wisdom of crowds”, where he tells us how amazingly precise predictions can come from big groups of people. He also tells us how applying this theory to the Steemit community can make the platform a better place. Learn more about this by checking the post! -=-
-=- Do you know how secure your email provider is? Do you know what are the chances of being hacked and losing all the information you have there? When we think about email providers, the names of Gmail or Yahoo usually come to our minds, but your privacy can be seriously compromised there. To present us a more secure option, @anilkumar83 tells us everything about ProtonMail, an email provider that has many security features and that works with encrypted technology to keep your information secure. Go read the post to learn how ProtonMail is one of the best options out there and start putting your information in a safer place! -=-
-=- One thing that maybe not many people know about Sweden is that it is full of beautiful nature and historical landscapes that can make any jaw drop. Gotland is one of those islands that deserves everyone to look at it. This World Heritage Site has Visby as its capital, an ancient city where you will find incredible architectural masterpieces from many centuries ago. @knackart went there for the summer holidays and she couldn't have chosen a better option. She shares some facts about the island, all the things you can find in its beaches and caves ... basically all the things you must visit if you go someday. -=-
-=- Technology leaves no area out of development, and some of the most interesting advances are related to transportation. All automotive companies constantly compete to put out the most amazing cars ever created. As a cars fan, @hitesh0898 shares with us the models that will revolutionize the industry very soon. With futuristic designs and features never seen before, the best brands in the automotive world want to innovate and provide the customers with a completely new experience. -=-
