@el33th4xor Just wait until someone comes up with a blockchain based on power law (or worse, Cantor) distributions. The progress bar moves *backwards* until you find a block.
@Sass_toshi@PeterRizun@ProfFaustus From my post: "It doesn’t matter what times you pick - 10 minutes since the last block was mined, totally random, every hour on the hour, your friends’ birthdays, whatever! The expected time until the next block will always be 10 minutes."
Nice writeup on exponential distributions.
To the uninitiated, they will seem bizarre: Bitcoin blocks arrive every 10 minutes on average, yet if it has been 10 minutes since the last block, expected time to next block is still 10 minutes.

Big day at @box! We're launching an Insights Dashboard for admins to understand their company's content, collaboration, and security: https://t.co/ufMwBGGctJ
@allenday Bitcoin in BigQuery is 👌, but there are some blocks missing from the dataset! Thoughts? cc @felipehoffa
