Why are you always using such harsh words? Maybe I am an idiot and you are super genius that is always right about everything.

I specifically limited my question to issues unrelated to software versions. just trying to understand things one piece at a time.

Now monsterer is saying it is always the same, you say it is probably going to increase. But I agree with you about the non PoW factors most likely dominating and since I am always wrong, does that mean you are wrong too?

You seem to have an excellent command of English for a non-native speaker.

At the same time you seem to lack basic scientific education at the level of high school, where typically the "correlation vs. causation" is explained.

In a previous thread you've exhibited 0/10 knowledge of basics of DBMS.

I have no idea where you've received your education (home schooling? religious school?) but I haven't used any harsh words. I've used standard sentences that would be said by a teacher to a completely unprepared student face-to-face in any normal school. I'm not going to even delve into further scholastic experience like participating in competitive group sports or military training.

I dropped out of kindergarten, I couldnt handle being shamed and put in the corner when I asked questions I wasnt supposed to.

Rather than disprove how my analysis that 10 blocks is sufficient, you state that my analysis is bogus. So I should set it to 100 blocks? 1000 blocks? Some random number? That is your recommendation? Or maybe I should go to DBMS school since apparently without a DBMS Phd nothing I write has any validity.

What does my education have to do with the analysis that 10 blocks appears to be sufficient? It might make others question your objectivity if you keep taking every chance to try to make me look stupid. Or you dont mind if people just categorize you as some type of troll? I would think a smart person would want his point of view appreciated and not just dismissed as troll blather.

I appreciated your post about the getchaintips RPC, that was useful. Maybe you can stick to making useful posts? Like math based analysis, which is what I tried to do. Did I make any math errors?

If the statistical model is dominated in the real world by non-PoW factors, then that is certainly an important issue and might need to be factored in. If so, what should the setback be? would 1 year be enough time to be sure?
