I finally did! By just a random trial and error. If you have a rice cooker with a steaming basket, steam the eggs in the rice cooker. Peel comes right off, I have no idea why.
I agree with the sentiment but it was never possible to be a different way. Bitcoin is an open system and anyone is free to adopt it, even the "enemy". My hope is that it is a sort of trojan horse though and by allowing it into the system it will eventually grow enough to make them obsolete.
I use the experimental force-dark mode in brave browser on a PC with system darkmode enabled as well. Hope that helps!
This could be because I'm in dark mode but for instance shouldn't the US be darker colored than Canada and Russia?
Great work! I could be wrong but some of the colors seem off on the maps ..like some of the lighter colored countries are showing more density numbers than the darker colored ones
Am I crazy that I don't see how UBI solves anything because it will create inflation that negates the value of the UBI? This seems obvious to me maybe I'm missing something. You can't just give people money, it is known.
This is very true for this generation of AI also. You may no longer need to be a good or even competent developer in a couple years, as fast as things are going.
There's thousands of transactions nearly every block.
That's true. I guess what I meant is that despite this, there is no demand driving fees above nearly rock bottom.
Mining cannot be "profitable" over a long time horizon, it's not meant to be. Market dynamics mean profit will always be arbitraged out. Break-even mining, waste-heat generation (space heaters etc), ideological mining, altruism, or as a institutional security COST are keys to decentralization.
These are exactly the kinds of ideas I was looking for with my post Thank you! I was trying to think of scenarios where mining is not profitable.
For-profit mining is an anomalous condition created not only by the subsidy, but real world transient activity like arbitrage on stranded energy (nat gas wells) and reduced data center footprints for legacy compute (AI is finally squeezing this out), the treasury company fad (publicly traded miners), and demand by institutions for provenance coins (new coin base coins without a chainalysis history that institutional lawyers see as a liability)
Interesting idea that it was never meant to be profitable. I mean in most industries, profit gets arbitraged down, but not out completely because otherwise people would stop. What makes mining materially different in this sense? Exactly those things such as altruistic mining, waste-heat, etc?
Right, that's why I don't think hardforking to tail inflation is feasible. Have you thought about how this hypothetical future might work in light of that as a non-starter?
Great write-up thanks!
Do you know if people still follow the stolen coins around with blockchain analysis? The thief/thieves have managed to stay under the radar all this time?
