Everyone is wrong about free will.
The people defending "humans have free will" position are usually wrong because they try to find a place in physics or biology for free will. There is none.
Atoms clearly have no free will, and neurons are made of atoms. Your neurons can't choose what they will put on output, and therefore what you will think and do. Your neurons create the output based on their inner state and inputs. No way around it.
But that is not where free will exists. You are not your neurons. You are the subjective experience that can arise from having a body with a brain, but you are not the body and brain. And in your subjective experience you have the experience of free will. The soldier that was sent to war and is aiming at an enemy has to make a choice - to fire or not to fire. It might not be an easy choice, maybe almost impossible choice, but it is a choice none the less. And it doesn't matter that on the level of atoms and neurons the outcome is already decided. At the subjective experience level, there is a choice to be made and we call that choice free will. The bullet once fired, can't choose to hit the target or not, but the soldier can choose to fire or not.
If you just say that free will doesn't exist, then you are losing useful words to describe certain situations regarding human behavior and reality. Just because something doesn't exist in the world of atoms, doesn't mean it isn't real. Show me one atom of justice, mercy or beauty… and yet, these all describe something real and meaningful for us humans. And so does free will.

This is kind of "so obviously wrong", but in a good way, like Nostr itself. So I think it might actually work. Unlike IPFS and such.. nostr:note1l2hx9s9h9w0xstvltzaaxsenafnwqdrnta45zevnq9j6696wxjcseyjaqs
Yeah, it has drawbacks, but it is probably more realistic than some spacechain based or similar solution that doesn't rely on DNS - which I would love, but that has issues of their own..

Blockchain isn’t just a distributed database, it’s a very specific kind of distributed database where:
1) the database maintainers aren’t authenticated
2) the set of maintainers changes over time
If you don't need this, you don't need blockchain
I was exploring the idea what self sovereignty over your genes might look like.

Where we are going, we will use a whole lot more energy. Like 1000x more. And that is a good thing. Let's make energy dirt cheap & clean.
Wow, WTF ?! Do you need to live there? There are many nice places around the world and you could buy more bitcoin :D
Yes, and also features (like borrowing in rust) are very small part of what makes the experience of using some programming language. Over the years I realized that aspects like overall ecosystem are much more important. Where can you go for help with strange issues and how likely is it that you will find the answers quickly? What libraries are available and who is supporting them? Who is developing the language/compiler/tooling and in what direction are they taking it? What are their priorities? What tooling is available? How does debugging experience looks like? These are in my opinion much more important than some feature or syntax sugar.
The future is now. We are, in effect, building a computing shell around the planet.
