what about the investors do some due diligence and not throw money at a worthless company. TBH I didnt RTFA but did they falsify data, or just make large false claims?
So if you lose a bitcoin there is no way to recover it, right?.....what happens over time as people misplace/lose bitcoins, is there any mechanism for figuring out how many are actually in circulation, vs how many were created? (and I'm not making a pro/anti argument, since obviously cash gets dropped/lost/burned all the time).
Since there is a hard cap on the number of bitcoin will this be a problem in 10-20 years if it continues to be used (I assume the amount people lose is small compared to the amount total, but I have no idea) or will the satoshi have to be split into micro- or nano-satoshi?
US too...CostCo has done it for years. Now Walmart has joined the game, and others are doing it in less dense areas (where the realestate isnt a limiting factor)
sometimes thats done purposefully so that you can get to the next paper before the other person./p
not a good system but I know plenty of researchers who put in enough to explain what they did, but not enough so you could reproduce it without a bit of effort/research yourself./p
definitely not the ideal, but people care about getting the next paper first so they can advance their career. publish or perish
the top 1% can afford to send their kids to good private child care, elementary school, high school. This funnels them into top schools.
I'd be interested to see how many of the 60% who are at elite private schools come from high schools with >80% "1%'ers". Is it largely the very gifted few who can despite poor circumstances get slots at private schools through programs like prep-for-prep that are going on to these colleges.
Dan-el Padilla (princeton prof) is a great example of this. Is he the exception or the rule (within the 60% group)
MIT has a great PR machine. Dont get me wrong, they do the most amazing things. But they make sure everyone knows what they are working on all the time. This is in its infancy, but this PR will likely help get more funding and interest to help make it into a niche tool, and far down the line a commercial product.
how about make the algorithm.......use it in a predictive manner after making it....THEN REPORT IT.....
what they have done here is taken a data set and made algorithms until one of them matched well. If I have a model that predicts traffic patterns or weather patterns in the past, its only useful if it is then applied after the fact and is still comparably accurate to when it was developed.
I (read: anyone) can make an algorithm that fits any previous data (even only using data that precedes the "prediction")......testing future predictability is the only way this means anything.
But when I get on a bus, i know where its going. These buses may decide my destination is not worthwhile, and take me far from where I expected. Flexible routes are nice and all, but will cause trouble for tons of people.

misleading.....thought they were making all files public
found my own answer randomly today: https://www.digitaltrends.com/...

all sites are paywalled
Yeah. Baley says its "modicide"
The point is not whats easier, its that the claim is incorrect as worded
US too...CostCo has done it for years. Now Walmart has joined the game, and others are doing it in less dense areas (where the realestate isnt a limiting factor)
Its also a bus, not a tiny sports car
Reverse Osmosis Technology = get from tap.
And who is going to waste their time reproducing results that get them no glory, no "real" publications, etc etc etc

except this is really old: 2012 was the first hit I found https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
what does that even mean? can you share this story you read?

they are probably casing your place. Amazon's vehicles have a logo on them.

THIS...better worded than my original comment

get a bike.... 10 min commute, and your schedule is yours to control
