Easy to typo and accidently add more or less A. I had to pause reading, to count the A-s. Not so easy on the eyes.
Better name it CUD4AGH if you want to keep it.
> You see, MinorMiner also has a maths learning platform that we sell to schools all over the world. Our platform isn’t particularly good, but we give department heads a generous revenue share and so this tends not to matter. Once a teacher (or “distribution associate” as we like to call them) ...
> The reason that we don’t do this already is because most children can’t calculate even a basic 8-bit XOR. I know! I was as shocked as you when I found out. But these kids aren’t stupid; their ignorance isn’t their fault. They’re being let down by a broken system that fails to teach them the skills they need to compete in today’s highly-specialised economy. This is why we’ve successfully lobbied to have XOR calculations added to the first grade syllabus, starting in the coming autumn term.
> And what will we do after AI? Cloud computing, ladies and gentlemen, cloud computing. Children are commodity hardware. Our big, audacious goal is to implement an entire computer using them. Everywhere that a computer normally has an electron, we’ll replace it with a school-aged child doing their maths homework.

"There are ... bills tied to energy production that Republicans hope will boost crypto here. One would define “off-grid electricity providers” as entities that generate, transmit or sell electricity but remain unconnected to any existing generation or transmission system.
If built, such providers would be exempted from most state utility regulations.
Another bill would permit electric utilities to own and operate “advanced nuclear resources” which can be used to power crypto-mining enterprises. The potential development timeline for any modular nuclear generators here remains entirely speculative, but projects in other states are expected by 2030."
I'm trying to imagine the future where our government promotes the development of private nuclear power plants for the sole purpose of doing pointless math in pursuit of money.

- Developing private nuclear is a good thing
- Getting giant power sinks off public grid is a good thing
- Private electrical generation doesn’t need to guarantee the same level of service as utilities depended upon by the public. Who cares if they surge or starve some hash calculator? Why not let them operate more efficiently?
