What you are imagining are templates. They are already widespread(see LegalZoom) and almost everyone using contracts uses them for certain things. Smart contracts are programmatically verifiable. That is why they are flawed for almost eve

Actually to prove otherwise you just need to find traditionally "male" roles that are no longer male dominated roles. Like teachers, lawyers, or doctors. All had centuries of being male jobs. Or find 'male' roles in so

Many asian countries culturally encourage STEM fields above all else so it's not surprising that they are both over represented in STEM fields and underrepresented in non-STEM fields. I'm not sure what point you're trying to

Your whole argument is that people are biologically set to specific roles because in some countries where they have the free choice they still go for those roles. But that ignores the fact that even in those societies children are still co

Unless something goes wrong then you'll probably regret your canned contract for not dealing with the specifics of your needs. Canned contracts are great and a wonderful money saver until they are needed. It's just lucky that mos

There were BBSs earlier and if you were lucky you worked for a company or university with access but commercial internet access and usage was restricted before the early 90s. So comparing VC to before that point isn't accurate it also

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cattle_feeding says that 9% of beef is raised by grazing. Poultry is going to be almost all feed. Along with Pork. Those are the 3 biggest sources of meat by far.

Right so that land becomes unproductive land and can return to its natural state or be used for other needs. And that is fine since we don't need as much farm land to sustain a non-meat society. You're intentionally confusing was
