without sacrificing his integrity
Just to be clear, I don't think that pricing Tarsnap in picodollars is a matter of integrity. Nobody would suffer if I got rid of picodollars.
It's one part whimsy and about nine parts branding. Just like how Stripe launched with a curl command line on the front page of their website, the presence of the word "picodollars" is a shibboleth which says "we're geeks, just like you".
