Evan McFarland's Projects

a-statistical-approach-to-happiness

18-month psychometric self-study of subjective efficiency and well being.

airline-stocks-analysis-project

In this course, students will learn about the foundational elements of data structures as well as how they work on the Internet Computer. Module 1 serves as an intro to this unit, providing context for data structure design and the tradeoffs to consider when weighing which to use in certain projects. Module 2 and 3 explore the distinction between Motoko's differing styles for writing data structures: object-oriented (collection of functions that mutate state), and pure (no methods, no mutations). Module 4 builds on the data structures explored so far. Students will get hands-on experience via the IC's `BigMap` library, learning to scale their data structures beyond a single canister in the process.

governance

In this course, students will learn about open governance on the IC and implement their own NNS-like system to create an open internet service. Module 1 serves as a primer for all things governance; we discuss the ideas behind open governance models, how the IC implements open, autonomous governance via the NNS, and the potential for open internet services. In Module 2 students begin implementing their own version of the NNS by allowing users to "lock" balances for neuron creation. In Module 3, students add the ability for neurons to vote on proposals and follow other neurons. Finally, in Module 4 students implement canister upgrades for passed proposals.
