Thanks for the criticism! We approached using silica from a different angle: we took a product sold over-the-counter in pharmacies & adapted it to climbing. This means we’re all good in terms of human product safety. The trick essential

The alu bit is definitely up for debate. Packaging from recycled alu is better for sure for the environment. That being said, it’s a goal we work towards. Short of doing a crowdfunding to finance the startup cost switching to alu is hard fo

There actually is an estimate of this floating in the chia Keybase channel. I remember it being very low, but there are many variables. Even at 100x the estimate it came down to less than 10 million USD in CO2 offsets.

Which is fine.

One way would be to simply start to do CO2 offsets of the total estimated energy spent per block mined. It’s a fun thing to calculate & dream about but enforcement would be hard.

Over here in Europe where everyone seems to be on it chat via WhatsApp is really effective. Only used it for customer development & not hard sales though. Very very low barrier & personal.

Wait, so you are saying there are no long queues after all?

I am looking for something that integrates with the communication tools I actually use when so get in touch with them, and for me that is not email and calendars ... for me that is chat (WhatsApp)

What is wrong with a poor retirement? What is wrong with enjoying life today? What if your plan is simply never to retire?

I’ll bite. Looking in from the outside the US is in terminal decline because it lacks: * a viable education system which has led to the current wave of anti-science sentiment. * a viable healthcare system which is causing people to get in d

I’m working on a fundraiser to help with Corona. Initially our idea was to donate straight to e.g. the WHO. What is the most efficient way to spend money right now?

The answer lies in your first sentence: the system “we” designed ... when you feel the system currently in power does not represent your interests laws are options, not hard rules.

What if those desires happen to be illegal in your country of residence? In some locales plain homosexuality can get you in trouble.

It’s controversial, but consider genocide. I fear the day will come someone will actually put this option on the table. Our species seems to be particularly prone to bouts of this tendency.

I like to think of this in terms of carbon debt. It is surprisingly easy to calculate the avg. per-capita lifetime carbon debt accrued by someone living in a specific country. It’s a fun metric to compare generational differences (e.g. baby
