The automation wouldn't be doing anything unsolicited either, since it's only doing things that have been defined in the UI. Perhaps they didn't mean automation per se, but CI is certainly automation, automatic merging, as in

But if they are maintaining "no automation" as a rule, CI should not really allowed.

Does it really change that much though? I suppose they would not be able to control inflation, but taxes and tariffs would remain the same. It's not a total loss of control.

Firstly, I don't think it's likely a cryptocoin is going to destroy any major currency. I don't agree having a non government issued currency means you don't have a government, for one there seem to be a few countries th

I wouldn't expect it take longer than 30 minutes, risk is largely removed by meeting in public. If it were as bad as you say, people would not be using it.

Reputation is currently how local bitcoins handles this. And also, the exchange could take drivers license info/do other verifications for e.g. what is currently done by coinbase.

localbitcoins is a legit solution, I'm pretty sure we could resolve the issues around it. Mugging is an easy one, meet in public. A Tor based exchange is not distributed, but I think the way to go.

And I'm pretty sure the UK still has video games?

I also think you could move most of that to a Tor onion service.

Title should be "cracking down on Bitcoin exchanges", I don't think they can crack down on Bitcoin proper.

Agree with the rest, but the US is not highly litigious, common misconception, probably created by corporations trying to defend themselves from "frivolous lawsuits".

When I see these I think of the phrase "if you have to ask, you can't afford it".

Couldn't you just rebalance the commission so the pay increase is the majority of the commission. Not saying the current situation isn't messed up, but there is no reason it couldn't be fixed.

Friends/therapist is a false dichotomy, any good therapist encourages socializing. Depressed people are not mentally healthy, it's a condition that can lead to suicide. Being sad is not bad, but when someone is diagnosed with depr

Even local reporting on new laws is not great, somewhat recently was Feinstein's gun law, not a fan of it, but there was so much misinformation flying around, making it seem much worse than it was. Which in turn detracted from legitima

I think this is not correct, because companies that act more meritocratic will be more likely to succeed, and there you have capitalism.

There should be a major hit to the reputation of anyone publishing fake data. I am a bit surprised studies aren't independently reproduced immediately.

Why does doing something first give you the right to sell it? How do you deal with the problem of multiple discovery? I'm not saying inventors aren't intelligent, but I really think that if they had not existed someone else likely

Honestly, it seems patents discourage competition, and in my opinion are therefore anti-Capitalism. I would not miss them, at least for software. It's almost a bit arrogant too, how long would it really take for someone else to come to
