I can't say that I care if its a lie or not. I find it utterly distasteful that a millionaire parent would 'use' their kid on Kickstarter for $900 in some strange publicity stunt or an unprecedented act of greed. The fact that Kickstarter s

Fraud? No. Distasteful, dishonest, stupid and incredibly callous? Yes.

I just hope this 'story' ends here. Both parties having learned a lesson and walking away a little bit humbler and thoughtful. I would absolutely HATE to see this become a drawn out legal battle comedy. And I would hate it even more to see

First off I agree 100% that the trolls that threaten and slur her on the blog/twitter etc. are morons. I would also like to point out that THAT is what trolls do! As a footnote: Adria moderates ALL comments on her blog, and allowing these t

I doubt there is any truth to this. No company in their right mind would fire a valuable employee because they end up in a 'trollstorm'.

Obviously any intelligent person will agree that the trolls posting threats etc are childish morons.

I feel the same way. I think that if she had just apologized early and clearly for her lack of judgement and maybe just called up the company that fired the guy they could have made a deal and shaken hands. Now she has lost her job at Sendg

I personally find it more confounding that grown men or women are actually finding what they said privately (the fact that you can overhear a private conversation does not make it public, saying it at the podium would) offensive enough to t

I am not in a position where I hire or fire people, but if so was the case I would consider her reaction to a private conversation where neither of the participants intended any harm very bad judgement. Tweeting and blogging about this with

Personal vendetta or not. A person that reacts to a private conversation (inappropriate or not) by posting hearsay about two co-workers to 1000s of followers the way she did is NOT a person I would want to work with, even less hire. She has

This just makes me sad, what a hypocrite.

Not being able to make sexually explicit jokes in private at a public conference is absolute ludicrous. No question that the offender here is the person posting this out of context and seemingly out of spite.

by SODaniel 14y ago
Pretty obvious they fired the wrong person here. If someone worked for me and posted inflammatory images/statements about/involving a co-worker they would be the one needing to worry about their job.

Basically I am just speculating wildly, however I think that $60 may be a 'mental wall' for a lot of traders in BTC that could signal a quick movement either to/past $100 or trigger sell-offs.

Did Bitcoin just break 'Psychological $60' heading past $100 or will it crash?(bitcoinity.org)

Because every time BTC jump 20% the same article will be 'interesting again' due to the large number of Bitcoin owners that frequent HN. CAPITALISM!!

As the article clearly states the function of the hack is to allow the card to run with alternative drivers, providing lacking functionality under Linux.

Dropbox for Wi-Fi? I haven't even gotten past the first page of instabridge and I already think the tag-line is more confusing then explanatory. Do you anything that has to do with shared cloud storage or collaboration? If not, just don't c

100% agree. Unfortunately I am fairly certain that Elon is the kind of type-A, Narcissist genius that once he enters combat will not let go.

Elon Musk is one of those bona fide type A geniuses that I would HATE to see go the way of Rise and McAffee.

Of course, but with a young currency without a set 'backing' (Gold, merchandise etc) I am just saying that looking at historical valuation makes it seem like the massive value increase would speak for it being valued fairly high @ $40

Transaction records? Yes. Tied to a physical person? No. There is as far as I understand nothing hindering private trades among owners, making 'rigging' entirely possible (I may be wrong).

by SODaniel 14y ago
Of course, there is absolutely nothing that says this will ever happen.

by SODaniel 14y ago
Something else people seem to forget is: This is an unregulated electronic currency without a paper trail. Can you say "A market that a group of people wanting to rig value would LOVE!" Nothing (as far as I can tell) stopping a group of lar

Prediction time: 1 BTC under $15 within 60 days and relatively stable around $6-$9 for the next 18 months.
