I'm sure the approval rate was even lower among the Actually Rich

What? That's not true. You don't need more than one CPU miner online for tx to go through. That's why there are difficulty adjustments.

But as number of miners drop arent btc at risk of a 50% attack?

But if you have anywhere near the market power to do a 50% attack, you can make a lot of money mining.

Public domain code is GPL compatible

Next build a nice way to use normal Makefile with rust

Seems like a supabase competitor?

That's a fair statement! I would say we are similar to supabase in that we offer a relational backend. We are different in two ways:

1. Supabase runs on VMs, so only supports 2 free projects. We built the backend to be multi-tenant, so we can give you unlimited free projects.

2. Supabase doesn't support offline mode or optimistic updates. Instant gives you a sync engine which does.

Arguing you should not write "complex" things or "formal" things becuase of poor attention spans just makes me sad about the state of literacy.

Unnecessary complex and formal writimg is just a poor writing. It is harder to write clearly and simply.

I mean it's advice from the same man who thought "delve" - a 6000 year old, monosyllabic word used by Shakespeare and Tolkien - was too complicated and should not be used.

I am not sure we should be taking him as a literary authority.

The premise of the movie is that smart people stop having kids and dumb people have lots. It's "reverse eugenics"

But it's a proven fact. Less educated people are poorer. The less educated tend to have more children. And children who grow up in poor families receive a lower quality of education.

Yes but this is not the genetic argument this is a "school system sucks" argument

In every country, if your parents are scientists, you will be in average smarter, than if your parents are peasants.

Is that because of some heritable presence/lack of intelligence or because scientists feed their children well early in life, have books in the home, and take the time to follow up on their children's education?

Woah, woah, stop right there with your facts Mr. Eugenics. /s

The ugly thing about eugenics is that someone has an artificial ideal of how people should be and then tries to enforce that. If something just happens without interference (a process), that's basically just evolution.

In general the methodology for IQ is highly questionable

What do you propose as a replacement?

You're absolutely right. That is an em dash
