Although the arc browser has kinda become my default on the newer mac
Yep. Also handoff + iCloud sync.
+ my 2012 mbp can’t really run other browsers very efficiently 😅
I’ve finally switched to the arc browser as my default browser (non mobile).
Non trivial productivity gains with not worrying about tab management. Interested to hear the community’s opinions

Prof Hinton was also super cool if you wanted to access the cloud Nvidia resources from UofT for training novel architectures as experiments, at least back in the day haha.
Man’s a certified legend.
😂
That’s a pretty easy easy(& well put) way of explaining the anti fragility of BTC, esp without going into numbers & most would understand!
I was specifically addressing that one concern, which Andreas articulated far better than I can in under two minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncPyMUfNyVM
Yep the rough math in the thread disproves what’s he’s speaking.
He’s talking specifically about malicious attacks by gaining majority compute.
For sure. Although the distinction then becomes attacks affecting accessibility(or network security by way of) v/s malicious ones affecting the state of the chain.
One would likely be more devastating, at least in the short term.
Yep agree, I was just curious specifically about the 51% attack
Seems that realistically, any entity capable of deploying a coordinated attack of more than 158PFLOPS (with some assumptions, 280PFLOPS ~= ~355.57EH/s) so 51% of the hash power of the entire network as of May 6, 2023 can successfully launch such an attack.
That’s a LOT of countries.
In fact it includes quite a few private companies with non distributed compute like IBM(who would’ve thought):

After rubbing these numbers, the network is less secure than most think and MUCH less secure than I think.
But I guess it’s more realistic to do a relative comparison of what it takes to topple the current world reserve currency vs BTC 🤔
Assumptions + slightly in depth discussion on those: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=50720.0

Curious about the first statement, could you elaborate? 🤔
I don’t think platforms will ever bear the cost. The additional dollars towards taxes coming from them will simply be passed down to consumers in some way; either higher amounts of privacy breaches or something else to increase monetization per user.
I disagree with the statement but the other lever to control to achieve boiling is pressure.
Can make up for some of the temp differential + semiconductors might not be as adversely affected by P as they are with T
