The blockchain ownership may be flawed, just like the current paper one. That's why you'd still need title insurance. Sellers and buyers don't need agents right now. Thanks to Zillow, the price disparity is moot. I knew more

Crypto is antiprivacy. All of the transactions are public, it just offers psuedo-anonymity. If we used crypto for all transactions you could see when I go to my local watering hole and wait for me to close out my tab.

You could use the ancient Microsoft logic questions. They are equivalent as easy. Leetcode is sticky for a reason even if it's not the intended reason.

Check out Numberblocks from the BBC. My kindergartner found it while she was in Pre-K and learned multiplication and division on her own. Much of our intelligence is from our parents. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heri

What about differences in teacher salary? All of my kids' teachers have been superb. I agree with you that the outcomes of wealthy areas would be better due to many reasons outside of schools.

The fact that my school provides chromebooks (while other schools in the same county do not) seems to be from a funding perspective. I'm not focusing on outcomes because I would expect people who can afford homes in my town can afford

You're correct. We'd expect to see more extreme outcomes with smaller sample sizes. The question is does this translate to more drugs when administered early which was the real reason for this study.

As with most experiments there's a control group (6 patients). The original statement of 18 participants is correct along with yours of 12 patient treatment group.

That's great for your dad. Thank you for also distinguishing between types of cancer and the nebulous term cancer, many people don't make the distinction.

Depends on your level of honesty. Given that you're fixing typos to say that you contributed to a project, you'd probably double down and quote the number of PR (remember to only do 1 typo fix per PR) and then add a real bug you m

You're right about who is to say. It depends on how much Crypto grows and how important engineering is to a Crypto brokerage, e.g., Vanguard's UI sucks but their rates are great and that's why I have my money there.

Our disagreement appears to be this. You believe that zero interest rates lead to bubbles. I believe that excess liquidity is responsible for bubbles. They frequently both happen together because that's how the Fed tries to stimulate g
