Human desires are endless. This is why you will always have employment. Technology frees up time and humans than use part of that time for leisure and part of it for doing more meaningful, higher value work.

I'm doing my business plan right now and what you say is about right. Don't forget to have some budget for operating expenses - services like github, mailchimp, accounting program really add up... Of course you can assume your revenue will

You need to incorporate in Chile upon arrival (they help you with that), so I don't see how being incorporated in your own country would help because that company would just become a subsidiary to the Chile parent.

There is a checklist of things they like to see. Hiring locally is one of the points in the list, but you only need to do a few items on the list so you can get by with scoring an article in your hometown paper, going to a Chile event, etc.

Which Twist episode was this?

They have indeed changed that rule. Probably to cope with teams moving to Chile before the deadline in the expectation of getting the grant.

They should put a dollar amount on their offer and get a deal signed - indluding a secrecy agreement. Offering "tell us all you need" sounds cute but turns the victim into a begger.

There's nothing wrong with privatizing i.e. selling to the highest bidder. The real "raping of Greece"s assets" will be that IMF/EU will impose both buyers and price. They'll call it privatization maybe, but it won't be one.

There's nothing irrational about wondering how deep the iceberg goes. I'm always amused when people blaim the market for pointing out failed assets, as if the process of price discovery itself is more responsible for intrinsic value than th

Better a decentralized police state than a centralized one. In fact, a decentralized police state is exactly the only thing a centralized police state has to fear. E.g. see the laws making it illegal to film police in public.

I see LulzSec and Anonymous more as fighting the concept of the super states as we see them today rather than a specific government in general. By attacking the US they are attacking the instance which is most familiar / easiest / offers bi

This is a github repo I think we missed. Have shared it with the team. We are making some chenges to the bitcoin client to make our centralized exchange more secure, but a distributed exchange is a promising model too. We ended up not pursu

I'm building my own Bitcoin Exchange as we speak and I can tell you, these security measures are nice (we had most of them planned too, plus some) but real Wall Street level security is only affordable in a more mature market.

You will find more men at the bottom and more men at the top - an outcome that is explained well in the essay. I believe men are better at creating civilization and seeing more men who failed fits exactly in that worldview.

Is Jeff Rotschild a member of the (in)famous Rotschild family that owns large interests in international banking?

Yes, thank you. We indeed did feature prioritization and have three release dates for alpha, beta and final 1.0. So far I feel quite confident about the development shop.

Suddenly I am happy only the .org was available for my new project. I am wondering though: Couldn't the US make similar claims on .org and .us (and .edu, .biz?) domains?

Good point, it would make much more sense to just run away with the Bitcoins rather than dumping them.

It's just the logical conclusion knowing these two facts: 1. MtGox sold 500K Bitcoins clearing all the buy offers highest first (as this is how sell orders clear). 2. MtGox is going to undo all transactions above the $1K/day transaction lim

Amazing that this kind of behavior by Skype/Msft wasn't calculated in the contract at the time of signing it.

I can't login at MtGox at the moment. What's the best measure to take now? I'm assuming MtGox will reset the passwords for those with an email account associated. Not sure what they will do for those without, hopefully they have IP logs for
