"Why is software created using taxpayers’ money not released as Free Software?" Why indeed?

I got myself this course: smart-biology.com after waiting years for them to open it up to the public (before it was only sold to universities).

I came for the biology, but the chemistry section blew my mind. I had learned everything in school in mexico, but every concept was disconnected from the next, and thus my chemistry sucked.

So happy that the world finally makes sense.

And every chapter is a 3 minute video, like TikTok, but more fulfilling.

Exactly 14 years ago , Satoshi Nakamoto designed the most pathetic / inefficient system ever invented by humankind : the blockchain.

Today, it weights 60 000 tons, wastes constantly 10 gigawatts (more than Belgium or Chile) to process less than 7 transactions per second :

Less than a 33 bps modem from 1990.

This could be a joke if it didn't have such gigantic environmental impact, wasn't enabling billion dollars ransomware industry and was not crushing thousands of lives in the process.
