I think IRC is the easiest source. Although, a lot of the IRC channels are invite only and you will have to find a way to get invited. Twitter is another source I've seen. "Blackhat" users will tweet about exploits they found

There was this talk by a programmer with bipolar and I think ADHD. He couldn't hold a job for more than a year. I can't find it, but very inspiring and helpful to understanding both. http://programmers.stackexchange.com

This makes little sense to me. Bitcoin only? Seems like they would miss out on a lot of business; which from my perspective they want more business from a variety of means(i.e. Amazon Fresh). My Mom and Grandmother do not know what Bitcoin

I don't but they are an awesome team. I use to go to their Ruby meetups and they are so nice to the developer community. One of the guys showed a demo of how awesome VIM is and was compelling enough that I converted and I never looked

I've tweeted at them telling them that their home page had autoplaying videos with all sound on. What a nightmare. I stopped going to TC so much after that.
