Notes

Remember when we met for the first time? It was in an airport! Dallas, if I recall.

(Oh, and my birthday request is for more pictures of Cider please!)

For six cards, you used enough energy to:

• fly for 36 hours,
• drive for 18,000 kilometres,
• boil a kettle 72,000 times, or

The story “Button, Button” by Richard Matheson describes a stranger delivering a box with a button to a struggling couple. If you press the button, you get money. But someone you don’t know will die.

I think Satoshi Nakamoto read it.

It’s incontraverible. Proof of work deliberately wastes copious amounts of energy …by design.

It’s like someone heard about the trolley problem and thought “yeah, that’s let’s do this!”

Imagine how architects feel about the David Brents going around calling themselves “solutions architects.”
