I think from ground water trace elements like lead are more likely. In my experience when I've been in places where groundwater was the household source via electronic pump, it's always been a case where you weren't supposed

Neat. For some reason I find it satisfying to read an example like that where there's actual real tangible work being done with immediate and obvious benefits.

Do you get security updates though? I stopped getting them in Dec 2019. Forcing my hand to move over to a phone with Android 9 that gets quarterly security updates still(on March 2021 now I think). I realize this is a manufacturer/carr

Yeah, this is almost certainly not the case any way you want to frame the question and define a 'bit being mined'. You'd really have to twist some strange language to attribute distributed global computation to SV because the

Proposition Joe had the connect on lockdown with the eastside and westside working together pumping out 15 million doses. Until young Marlo came in and put a stop to that. The game is the game, vaccines or not.

This is the way. Just check the contents first so there's nothing really harmful inside. Also start scaling up to multiple trebuchets as soon as possible and make it rain. Stimulate the local economy via job creation for the clean up.

It's weird for me to read HN and see people speak of PoS as some kind of new cutting edge technology. Maybe some of the issues with it may or have may not been solved but it is so damn old now that it's 2021. Like the first live r

I find it so hard to believe that everyone at Facebook is just shocked now to learn the realities of what they do. Their naivety and ignorance would have to be off the charts for it to be genuine.

Supply is increasing though through mining. Stolen coins are still coins. And there's no way that lost coins are out pasing newly mined coins. True loss/data destruction/inaccessibility is fairly rare. Even in the Bitcoin com

I'm interested to see if the US is able to do anything to Bitfinex now as a litmus test to see how wide their reach is in 2018. As far as I know they have zero US presence, and don't offer services to US customers. BTC-e went down
