Never have seen this so well explained. Alternatively, fiat can be printed. So there is a case for something that is limited, transportable etc. You can always sell your bitcoin to pay the taxes. Is just that the limited comodity would have the tendency to sell for more if the fiat is being printed

Interesting how people here took the question in such a negative tone. This list is actually useful for a novice self-taught programmer, like humbledrone said.

A list like that could have come pretty handy than. (ok I could look at some CS courses syllabus too)
Most probably missing so far, as to this is probably in Khan's roadmap or any determined volunteer.
