Even with this perfect definition there are still ambiguities. You could still debate if a non-chicken egg with chicken DNA is a chicken egg. Its shell and yolk, all contents, were produced by a non-chicken - imagine the eggshell was blue,

Exponential growth also pushes down the time when you need to become a mentor. If the field was totally stable (retirement rate = graduation rate, and everyone retires after 40 years in the field, greatly simplified model), then each new j

I may be crazy but I feel the ghostly presence of the “b”. For instance say “let let let let det” Now say “let let let let debt” Train a neural net on a few million samples of native English speakers reading these, and I think it could pred

You can save a lot of CPU by just never querying the server, and just assume the balance is 0. I guarantee the experience will be identical

Yes - after “Recruiter: wrong, not "attributes", it's "metadata".” - it’s clear enough what’s happening. “stat() return an error code, not an inode” - I know this isn’t what’s on the paper, and the author should hav

I doubt that it’s related to bandwidth costs; those are likely minimal compared to the price of acquiring content. It’s https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_discrimination - a way to capture more money from those who ge

That’s not true. If I owned the Mona Lisa what is stopping me from writing a legal contract “whoever owns this NFT is the legal owner of the Mona Lisa”?

The author seems to have no knowledge of Eth 2 sharding, zero-knowledge proofs, or ZK rollups. Or even basic encryption. “Who’s servers will have custody of your private family photos and who get’s to determine those access controls?” - I

In a PoW coin, if the cost of electricity < price of coin, more people will start mining, and vice versa. So let’s assume that over time, the price of a coin = cost of electricity to mine it + amortized/opportunity cost of the hardw

Based on context, and the phrase “expensive”, I assume they mean they want prosecution/legal action against the individual engineers and management. Not threatening

That's what I'm most interested in. What's the difference between remix and blitz.js? I can't find a detailed comparison anywhere

They are not saying coal isn’t bad. They are saying electricity isn’t bad. You can choose to use solar power already today. And soon by default everyone will be on solar power. Coal is still bad.

That's not a comparison. Hydrogen goes Sun -> storage -> DC. Solar panels go Sun -> DC -> storage -> DC. You're comparing (Sun -> storage) against (DC -> storage -> DC). You need to include hydrogen fuel ce

If this were true, counterfeit baseball cards should have the same value as “real” ones, and I would have a very profitable company producing beautiful Mickey Mantle cards. So where do you think the real value is?

I can make a counterfeit baseball or Pokémon trading card which looks identical to the real thing, or even “better”. Yet those don’t sell for nearly as much. Why is that?

That’s fascinating to think about. I’m now picturing a future when we’re on the brink of resurrection technology, and VC firms invest and trade warehouses full of billion dollar cryopreserved brainwallets.
