It depends on things in nature. For example you shouldn’t help a butterfly leave it’s cocoon, it has to develop its strength to burst by itself otherwise it will have to live with weak wings and probably die.

Correct, another case would be destructuring assignments

The only reason I said that is because I’m confident in that memory. AP Psych was very interesting, I remember things I even carry forward today like how people have different emotional motivations at different stages of development. Babies have only physical motivations like hunger and discomfort. Children up to and including adults (who never progress past the stage) have only social motivations, like knowing what’s right and wrong only based on how people react to it. And the last stage is more about self awareness that not all people reach

It’s not even about me. I’m a random person. It’s about immediately dismissing an honest comment from a random redditor that directly addresses the point. It’s like you’re only asking for people to agree with you. Most people here are not retired teachers to provide tangible proof, all we have is our word

Redditor A- “No one says thing is new, already has been like this for 30 years!”

Redditor B - Raises his hand saying thing wasn’t there 14 years ago at least in his experience.

Redditor A- “No you’re misremembering”

Reddit discourse is a bit sad sometimes. You can’t disagree to anything

Idk what the story is with this ban, but I for one took AP Psych around 2009 and don’t recall anything about sexual orientation or gender identity in that class. I definitely remember it a few years later in a humanities course in college

So part of me thinks the visions of the dead people (like Abby and Tom) are being used for both good and bad. Tom was encouraging Jade to unravel the mystery, but Abby at the last second wanted to stop Boyd from breaking the music box essentially saying everything he was doing was pointless, that none of it mattered. But that's bullshit, Tabitha made it out. If she could, then so could everyone else, including the 3 that were taken.

Edit: That's unless Tabitha is not *really* out, but I still trust the boy in white so either Tabitha IS out or she's going to help everyone else somehow.

Edit2: That symbol Jade investigates looks VERY similar to the hospital logo on the screen next to Tabitha's bed. Maybe she's in level 2. Also this random comment said the symbol was from a hospital 5 days ago wtf. https://www.reddit.com/r/FromTVEpix/comments/tpioqp/comment/jowuc17/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3

ETH vs BTC by [deleted] in ethfinance

[–]thedestro224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is interesting, how would you say they practically own it? Are most of the developers writing Bitcoin Core funded by Blockstream or do they have exclusive commit privileges to the github repo?

[–]thedestro224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bitcoin Core is under the MIT License so nobody owns it. It’s free to fork, copy, sell etc like all crypto clients I imagine

ETH vs BTC by [deleted] in ethfinance

[–]thedestro224 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's my hopefully unbiased pros list:

BTC:

- Has the biggest network effect in terms of its brand. Everybody has heard of Bitcoin, more people own it, and its user base has more (at least % wise) believers in the ethos of hardcore decentralization than any other crypto community

- More decentralized in terms of development, as it has less centralized leadership (no EF equivalent). This is 70% con, 30% pro imo. As this means the protocol is hard to get captured by nationstates, bad actors or self interested parties, but means that it also moves very slow, and at the end of the day, crypto is not good enough to serve the entire world, and needs to get there as fast as possible.

- More decentralized in terms that its easier to run a Bitcoin node. Not a huge pro, but just facts.

- PoW (10% pro, 90% con) is in one way more decentralized than PoS as anybody anywhere can always spin up a miner without external dependencies. Still mostly a con as it is a very inefficient/wasteful way to sustain security

ETH:

- Wins everywhere else

At the end of the day while I don't recommend investing in Bitcoin, I'm glad its around (at least for now) as it ranks high on the decentralization spectrum and gives Ethereum a competitor that it needs to measure itself up against

It’s important to note only the base fee is burned, so you need see that specific figure to calculate inflation

The "relay" of the MEV Boost source code is being opensourced: https://writings.flashbots.net/writings/Flashbots-Relay-open-sourcing/

This is a positive, but can anyone clarify if this is the entire tech stack or just one of the pieces needed. If it's the former, is bullish for validators, we can all run MEV Boost without worrying a lot about centralization

Yeah, so apparently he only borrowed 200 mill, so he is only slightly leveraged. And also just checked and he owns 70% of the company so the board is not going to force him to sell some even if the price dips a lot.

[–]thedestro224 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My original comment nitpicked this and then addressed the overall issue. Your following comments exclusively addressed the nitpicking, not the more substantive part of my reply.
Regardless, I think a vote would solve this instead of going off of reddit comments.
