Title: Ethereum’s cat herder: Hudson Jameson reflects on the journey to The Merge
Post by: Rakin343 on September 12, 2022, 05:42:11 AM
Hudson Jameson can code, but he’d prefer to leave that to others who are more skilled. He’d rather do the talking. 
After growing up in Northeast Texas, he studied computer science at the University of North Texas. “There I found out I'm not good at software development,” said Jameson. “But I can understand it.”
His understanding of software and his ability to explain it left him uniquely equipped to be the coordinator of all the Ethereum core developers, a role he held for four years at the Ethereum Foundation.
“I could speak the language to the developers exactly as they needed to hear it, while also coordinating people who didn’t want to make decisions and didn’t want to do the coordination; they just wanted to code,” Jameson said. “It was a really good match.”
Jameson stepped down from his role in April 2021 to take a mental health break. He’s now independent except for a few advisory roles.
But even though he doesn’t officially work for Ethereum anymore, he’s in a unique position to reflect on Ethereum’s long journey to The Merge, the major upgrade to proof-of-stake consensus that began its initial stage this week. source  (https://cryptonews.net/12268605/?utm_source=CryptoNews&utm_medium=app&utm_campaign=shared)
