Imagine you are an advanced civ with weapons hardly imaginable to current humans. Anti-Matter bombs, GRB strength energy weapons, etc, who even knows what is possible. With weapons…

In what way. You would call being 18th in income mobility "tremendous?" I wouldn't.

Pretty confused by the downvotes. People don't like data? I mean in fact it's worse than people think and you are no longer likely to make more than your parents when a few decades…

>The US is a great place to live and work with tremendous upward mobility Always confused by this notion. People act as if the US is the only place this is possible but not only is…

So what's the point of complaining about PoW as if Gridcoin used that when literally 1 of the 2 sentences in the wiki says it uses PoS?

Not to be that guy but did anyone read the 2 sentence wiki? "Gridcoin attempts to address and ease the environmental energy impact of cryptocurrency mining through its proof-of-res…

>Whats the use for the coin? Its an incentive obviously but its only so because it has a price tag. Who should buy the coin from me if I "mined" one and what would he do with it? T…

Why is this surprising? Has anyone been inside a Chemistry or Bio lab? You think that what happens in those labs to get research done is industrial grade?

>It's a scam (it doesn't even use the best version of stockfish, so much for "the best chess engine available"). Have you used the internet or turned on a Tv in the last 20 years? …

Sounds like SOP for American business to me.

The same could be said about flowers.com, macys.com, or literally any company doing business on the internet. Scale is basically a solved problem so pretending that AirBnb is a "Te…

> Everyone is allowed to copy Stockfish/Leela and sell them, provided the terms of the Stockfish/Leela license are met. But don’t pretend that the product being sold is something i…

>If my mental processes are determined wholly by the motions of atoms in my brain, I have no reason for supposing that my beliefs are true. They may be sound chemically, but that d…

>It sounds an awful lot like you're dismissing my viewpoint without really putting an effort in to argue your side, which would be rude. You are the one making grand claims so you …

>I don't think any of the ideas in this article have any evil intent, even if they have evil results. The Nazis made essentially this same argument at Nuremberg. Didn't work out to…

I'm not aware of anyone making the argument that without free will knowledge does not exist. And really the situation is simple. Either you believe in determinism or you believe in…

>I did not see any evidence of malicious intent towards our users but a genuine belief we were enabling them to be more productive. The Banality of Evil, this is just a version of …

>That said, in order to truly have knowledge of anything we must first be able to assert free will. This is not a coherent argument. You claim to have better insight than hundreds …

>xI don’t think it deterministic, at the lowest levels the physics is probabilistic. Probability doesn't get you free will. Sorry.

If you believe you determine your actions in a literal sense you are saying you believe in magic because there is no mechanism that could make this possible in a deterministic univ…

The type of free will that people subjectively think they have is so called "Libertarian Free Will" and it's basically universally understood by the majority of philosophers that t…

Edit: Could have sworn your comment said BTC and not crypto?

>try sending money to someone in north korea. how many hours does that take? Thats the best defense for Btc you have? >it is still a currency. The only people consistently using BT…

Yay I can't wait for a trip to the grocery store to take 12 hours because every transaction takes 20 minutes. lol. This is just pure bitcoin hype, there are far better coins to use…

Go ahead and do the math on how long it would take to launch enough bots to match current energy spend on earth.
