I ' m a biker , guitarist and physicist with an MSc in microelectronics and communications . I make robots in my free time . Wanna go grab a coffee sometime ? <| sep |> True but I ' m actually thinking a bit more horizontal . <| sep |> Just saw Putin ask a geography whiz kid where Russia ' s border ends . kid says at the Bering straight . Putin says , Russia ' s border doesn ' t end ! !!<| sep |> HAHAHAH i think he ' s super funny tho quite obvious that he ' s being sarcastic idk why ppl always downvote thank u cancerousness ! !!!!!!! we need u <| sep |> Early innovators don ' t always survive it is possible for a better version to come along and supplant the first mover particularly so when you realize that the initial innovators can carry substantial baggage as they tried to find a way to make things work and tried and failed with different ideas , whereas the cleanskin solution that arrives later can see what works and just focus on that plus whatever neat new features they can think of . As bitcoin wallows around wrestling with a scaling solution and bolts on segwit and other things in a messy backward compatible way , a new entrant can avoid all this . I sure hope bitcoin is the one that stays preeminent , but I have been around long enough to know that these things must never be taken for granted . As an example just one of many take Altavista as a case in point link below .
