Mining my way to grad school: an experiment in collaborative mining

What is this site?
Part social experiment, part desperate attempt to pay for grad school. My dream school will likely cost around $100,000. I have set a goal of mining 1,000 Monero (with your help!) to cover this cost.
The site was inspired by The Million Dollar Homepage, which itself was a (very successful) project to pay for the owner’s university education. This project is also a take on the new ways sites are trying to monetize their content. Similarly to how The Million Dollar Homepage was entirely a site of ads, turning the model of ad-supported content on its head, this site is entirely dedicated to mining.
Yes, it is another miner, but the idea was to flip the idea on its head. Instead of being a site that annoyingly is also using your CPU cycles without your permission, this site is just a miner and that's all. Similar to the Million Dollar Homepage from the 2000s.
