“When people write the history of this thing, of bitcoin, they are not going to write the story of 6 million to a billion. What is truly remarkable is the story of zero to 6 million. It has already happened! And we’re not paying attention! That’s incredible. That’s what had one chance in a million and it already happened.” PeopleWritingStoriesChanceAttentionMillionsHappenedIncrediblesBillionsPay AttentionRemarkableZeroBitcoinOne Chance Author:Wences Casares
“Creationists reject Darwin's theory of evolution on the grounds that it is "just a theory". This is a valid criticism: evolution is indeed merely "a theory", albeit one with ten billion times more credence than the theory of creationism - although, to be fair, the theory of creationism is more than just a theory. It's also a fairy story. And children love fairy stories, which is presumably why so many creationists are keen to have their whimsical gibberish taught in schools.” ChildrenStoriesSchoolTaughtTheoryEvolutionTenFairsCriticismBillionsFairyRejectsChildren LoveCreationismTheory Of EvolutionWhimsicalCredenceFairy Stories Author:Charlie Brooker
