almost everything that a person deals with on a daily basis can be explained by basic economics

the typical (American) high school curriculum consists of these core subjects: English mathematics science (usually earth, biology, chemistry, physics) government physical education foreign language art / music they should be largely replaced with these subjects: economics / markets probability / statistics psychology / sociology game theory the world (society) would improve tremendously in just a couple generations how will the students learn English and math though? because during the study of these subjects they will be required to read and write a lot and do a lot of math anyways

can't stop thinking about payment channels

decentralization doesn't imply lack of coordination it implies the validator can't be told what to do it should be obvious that a validator has a natural interest in protecting the chain (unless it is the attacker itself)

verified followers % continues to increase what does that imply?

daylight savings time ended those of you who write "EST" year-round will be correct for the next 4 months

you have to wonder why they are showing on your timeline to begin with? they rarely show up on mine

"these thirst trap posts disgust me" - guy who watched porn for 2 hours last night

if this trend continues of crypto underperforming AI/semi expect the general CT mood to continue to get worse - I agree with some other posts that it's already not great right now

Base, the most successful Ethereum L2 by far, spends about $4K/day to inherit the security of Ethereum. That's $1.5M/year to a $460B asset (0.03 bps). The L2 roadmap has Ethereum maxis selling their virtuous alignment for less than pennies. Ethereum should focus on scaling the L1 and stop selling security and alignment for zero.
