I need to start recording bold predictions like this in some sort of journal. EDIT: I meant in general, not just for bitcoin.

- Frozenlock 14y agoDon't! It will take more space than the entire blockchain!
- unimpressive 14y agoThe better ones could be added to an extension I was thinking of for the newsreader I still need to write. Basically it would take your karma on HN, and then pick a random (important) event that happened on the year that your karma currently corresponds to. (Years would be common era.) I was thinking after the current year I could start using stuff like that one XKCD comic that predicts the future based on stupid stuff people google search for.[0] [0]: https://xkcd.com/887/ https://xkcd.com/887/ EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot to say what it did with the event. It just displays it somewhere on screen, like in the top corner or something.

- toomuchtodo 14y agoWant me to write a browser extension that submits such quotes to the Internet Archive in their WARC format? :)
- unimpressive 14y agoI'm not really sure what the internet archive would do with them. It'd make more sense from their perspective to just save the whole page.
- gwern 14y agoDoes the IA even support such functionality? I thought they only took WARC dumps from outsiders in special cases of big batches.

- MacsHeadroom 14y agoThe week just started and the price is already double what it was this time last week. It only has to go up 50% more before the end of the week. Looks like my first prediction wasn't such a long shot, eh?
