Current AIs are at the level of an average 10y old or 85y old.

That's pretty smart already if you ask me.

"If all she had to do was say this was a beta or whatever and all of us would be using it, would be loving it."

This argument doesn't make any sense. It wasn't a beta, nor an alpha, nor anything.

It was just a marketing gag without any substance or technology. As part of an alpha or beta, you need an actual pathway to a full release.

There was literally nothing. If this were released as a beta after having raised lots of money, people would call this a scam outright, because it didn't do anything new or more efficient.

Well all new coins are proof of concept before they gain adoption, so this isn't really an argument why a technology is bad.

Skycoin's consensus algorithm is among the few that are peer-reviewed next to Cardano, so i think that's as much credibility as you can get as a new coin.

Iota's coordinator is expected to be decentralised and then removed next year already.

In order to gain control of the network, you would need to gain 34% of the hash power, omnipresence in the network and omnipotence. I'm not sure what the cost of this is, but there is currently no more secure decentralized network design that I know of.

Keep in mind that 45% of Bitcoin's hash power is currently controlled by one company, Bitmain, and they are investors in the 3rd biggest mining pool, totalling 75% hashing power of the entire Bitcoin blockchain.

Iota, Skycoin, Nano. The first 2 also offer linear/near infinite scalability, that is, the more nodes in the network, the more TPS can be handled by the network.

That's why one of the first 2 will probably replace Bitcoin until the end of 2018.

This argument isn't really valid, because Bitcoin also goes up by 10% within a day.

That's why this bank can calculate this factor in and have a small off-set budget for daily fluctuations.

Of course, there are also weekly 30% drops, but there are also weekly 30% hikes.

Across a span of a year, all of this volatility cancels each other out.

The mistake bezos makes is that his work is extremely rewarding, creative, fun.

This is maybe only the case for 0.5% of all employees in general. The other 99.5% need a good balance, because work isn't as rewarding, sometimes strenuous, boring, annoying.

4. 100 Founders need to make billion dollar exits to fund universities, vc funds, industries

Would you say that not getting the degree was justified, since getting a degree is 50% the display of having the intellect to the subject and 50% the display of having the diligence, persistence and discipline to finish something, which is one of the most important traits in the professional world.

Not trying to be snarky, but genuinely interested.

Did the "inability" to focus on things you're not interested in impede you later in life, e.g. with taxes, social life, exercise etc?

Then you've been manipulated by Trump who says fake news to everything, so that it looks as if he's calling bad reporting out even though he is the biggest fake news spreader. Have you thought about that?

It's the same as turkey calling other countries dictatorships and Nazis, so that they can't be called that.

It's a very common manipulation strategy.

It's not really that.

Legalizing drug use and abuse reduces overall crime, drug usage, and damage done by drugs through more help, less stigmatization, clean tools, clean drugs.

It's literally the dream solution, however, politicians are too dumb to understand that.

It's proven scientific evidence, see Portugal.

VCs are very stupid most of the time. They don't understand even how ML works orh blockchain or any new trend.

But their manager told them ML, ML, so they need to invest in ML. This is not a joke.

Be double as good in almost every metric, range, speed, acceleration, comfort, brand recognition, design.

Not sure what you see as revolutionary, but 10% improvement is evolutionary, maybe 30%, but 100% improvement is a new level.

You compare it to the average death rate of a surgery.

Why is that? If BTC goes 20x, then the long position liquidates, but so does the 20x short position.

Why can't you simply make a stable coin where you bet long and short at the same time?

Bitcoins goes up 5x, you gain from your long and lose from your short. Then, you find an algorithm that balances it out properly, done.

This doesn't matter, PoW (achieving consensus through mining power) is becoming obsolete.

Ethereum is moving to a PoW PoS hybrid (Casper) which uses a lot less energy and so are most of the new cryptocurrencies.

It's possible that bitcoin will soon, too.

Toddlers have a higher chance of survival than adults at free fall actually I think.

It's the best place to start a business if you're rich or build a business if you already have good revenue.

Are there numbers that say what the success rate of immuni therapy is?

That's why Bitcoin has just implemented the Lightning Network and Ethereum is implementing Sharding and Plasma. Lightning is projected to be able to maintain 50,000 TPS in practice and billions of TPS in theory.

Furthermore, PoS systems such as Nano and IOTA aren't really more centralized than PoW systems such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, since only 6 entities possess more than 51% of the hashing power in Bitcoin. That's definitely more centralized than Nano or IOTA.

That's also the reason why Ethereum is moving to a PoS/PoW hybrid.

In a nutshell, near instant transactions with very high scalability and a very high degree of decentralization are already here(Bitcoin, Nano, IOTA). However, these technologies have not yet proven themselves and need to show their resilience against black swan events and hacks of all kinds.

We will see the results within the next year.

Skydiving death rate is around 1/1,000,000, depression is around 1/20 IIRC.

What if the leaker is offered $100,000?

Isn't is the best time to invest again in crypto when it's at the yearly all time low?

Ah I wasn't referring to improving your mental health with meditation.

Meditation is more for calming the subconcious, dropping all the background threads that are running.

Maybe that's a "hack" that can fix your problem. Even if it doesn't, meditating a few hours at night gives your body more rest than rolling around and not getting rest nor sleep.

Maybe 4h of meditation at night is like 3h of real sleep for you, who knows.

Furthermore, you get a lot of insights and a better connection to your body.

I can recommend the app headspace.

So you're saying after Bitcoin has gone up 300% and crashed equally 15 times, exactly now this won't happen anymore?

Yes, but you also already have a more limited idea space, because you are not really trying crazy ideas, while the young think everything's possible.

Meditation?

No telegram with several hundred million users?

Almost all the new ones inclusing 3rd gen block chains don't, e.g. IOTA, Nano. They use PoS or a PoS/PoW hybrid, thus leading to 1/1000th of the energy consumption or 1/1,000,000.
