I don't know if this is a reputable source, however it claims in the USA 40% of men raised in the bottom fifth end up in the bottom fifth. That is about 4x as likely as a man in the top fifth.[0] This is much lower than I expected. [0]

Maybe: "The thing that drives the 1 in 270 is really micrometeorites and orbital debris … whatever things that are in space that you can collide with. So that’s what drops that number down, because you’ve got to look at the 210 days, t

I found very little of it to be self evident. It's a nice theory. There were no sources for even his most basic assertions. The only reason I mentioned Twitter was it was the only other thing I could find about him. Edit: you have a ne

From the article it sounds like both .onion and .is domains are safe for the time being. The .is domain should be easier to use.

This seems like spam. Who is this person? Why should I trust his analysis and information on a topic so easy to get wrong? They only seem to have this website and 13 Twitter followers.

There is an implicit "on earth". Gravity wells being vastly different. If the earth was bigger then we wouldn't even be able to get to orbit.

How can you spot low quality screws? I thought you'd have to stress test them. What do you mean by flimsy wiring?

That's really interesting. I always assumed it was difficult to see a difference in quality. What parts usually break in the cheap stuff?

I think it is about lowering the price to increase users. The user experience is also improved as you just install and go. Thanks for the info.

Are most DApps silos? Is there a market for a direct clone of ethereum that is just less congested? Lots of apps just don't make sense at $3 per transaction. It's quite discouraging.

The party making the claim is using anecdotal evidence. They have no data. I do not think anecdotal evidence is good evidence for such a strong claim. This makes the claim an opinion and not factual. This is only my opinion.

It's not about protection. I have no power over the scammer. I do not have to treat them well as they have chosen to be selfish. I can look down on them.
