If you don't do _actually_ every single block then you have Huffman Coding [1]. I imagine if you have a good idea of the data incoming you could probably do a similar encoding scheme where you use 7 bits to point to a ~512 bit blob and

Isn't that just a software thing (if at all)? It's not like Canadian lumber mills conquered the world. Ford F-series isn't the highest selling car in the world.

Idk. Everybody made fun of Elon buying twitter but the spin-off from it (X.ai) was valued enough to buy the original company. We'll need to wait a bunch of more years to see if the 23andme concerns were unfounded.

It's not a double standard. Musk has a history of doxxing. Pichai/Cook does not have a history of doxxing. Ergo, we would expect Musk to doxx somebody given the opportunity while we would not expect the same of Pichai/Cook. T
