Ah, sorry. I didn't realise this was an excel (help) community.
I was just about to ask about the proportion...
Also, I'm not an excel person, but feel I have to help!

Based on your research, there will be a total number of blocks mined which you need to account for.
So, total up the number of blocks mined (*) and divide that by the number of blocks found.
This will give you the ratio of diamond ore blocks to total blocks.

I feel like you must be doing something similar for the value?

*: worth having this total near the top in static rows, so you don't have to do strange cell references.
This also allows you to expand your sheets to have further seeds/research-projects which can give a summary view of the average (maybe multiple summaries for different depths)

Oh noes.
AI industry is losing some interest (consumers not trusting AI products, companies that have tried AI undoing those changes), intel have recently lost a SHIT tonne of valuation/credibility.
NVidia delaying a product due to issues might hit them harder than they think.

This article talks a lot about the violence and reaction.

Some might be people who’ve got genuine concerns.

What are the concerns?
The BLM protests have clear concerns. Just stop oil, existential rebellion have clear concerns. Occupy wall street have clear concerns. Hell, even the Jan 6th capitol rioters had clear concerns, even if it was clearly manufactured disinformation causing those concerns.
Those are protests. Some got out of hand, some went too far. But still protests.

As a genuine question, what concern is this violence protesting?
What turned this protest into violence?
Or was it just a rammy?

What is the initial investment on that diamond pickaxe?
At what point do you break even?

I feel like a lot of the complication of this story was from using rails to try and develop the implementation of adding a primary key to the database.
Initially testing via SQL would've quickly blown through the null and default requirements, after which it's just translating into whatever ORM you are using, testing and deploying.

I know a lot of ORMs make it super easy to quicky add a migration in a language you already know well. But primary keys are pretty core to tables, and probably something assumed to be set up when first creating the table (ie rails did auto-magick with the new id column).

Encourage/incentivise an actual apprentice scheme.
I don't know how to validate new apprenticeships, tho.
I know there is some sort of apprenticeship program in the US. Bring that to the forefront. Subsidise it, advertised it, promote it.

Apprentices shouldn't be taxed, subsidise their health/personal/business insurances.
Apprenticeships should include some basic training in business, taxes and finances.

Have tax breaks for companies, and heavily fund self employed/sole-traders who take on an apprentice.

You have to make apprenticeship as attractive as university & industry/corporate, especially in a world where technology is so exciting.
Making apprenticeship pay decently, and not be a significant financial risk to employers (apprenters?) will make it a no-brainer to companies.
Tax breaks or geants for big companies.
And making apprenticeship extremely cheap and low risk for sole traders/self employed (IE, more of this than subsidies for companies) will stop it from being a big-company-only thing. Like subsidised special apprentice insurance, tax breaks, grants.

Promote some sort of "ethical traders" kinda website, where traders with apprentices are advertised/promoted. Have some regulation around it, some customer reviews, make it neutral.
The idea being consumers will go to the "ethical traders" website to find someone to do work because it is a regulated neutral 3rd party that only includes ethical traders with reputable customer reviews. Somewhere that companies will work to maintain reputation.

Wouldn't it be funny if Trump & Vance held rallies a week or so after Harris has one in that place.
Would really look like cons are on the backfoot.

I reckon you could probably get away with it once, inevitable considering the timeframe and scale. 2 would be funny. 2 in a row would start raising questions. And 3 would would be telling.

The benefit of using config files is easy version management via git.
Makes it easy to rebuild from scratch and easy to rollback a change that breaks something

Does that mean that NAT is copywriter infringement?
Your client connects to their server via a home router.
The server replies with a packet. The packet is rewritten by the router so it can reach the client.
