There's a very simple change to the reward function that fixes this: make block reward proportional to difficulty. There's a real implementation called Ergon. I wish everyone wasn't so poisoned against it now that it was poss

Why do people focus so much on that random side comment from Pike during one talk he gave a long time ago? It's hardly the language philosophy and it's really hard to believe that Pike actually thinks Google programmers are bad or

The goproxy server makes it somewhat immutable for go too. Once they have a version cached they will never delete it. You can only supercede it with a new version and mark the old version as bad.

I had a c. diff infection two years ago and it was unimaginably bad. I wish I was able to try this instead of antibiotics. I still struggle with gut health now although things have improved with a lot of hard work.

There are objective collapse theories that lead to different physical predictions. Copenhagen is not actually a well defined theory because it does not define measurement. If we measured objective collapse it would falsify MWI.

It's not easy to memorize a long hex string, but hex is extremely useful for lots of other purposes. It's very nice that it cleanly aligns with bytes and words so it's perfect for inspecting binary data.
