Does your business accept funds from customers and send the funds based on customers' instructions (Money Transmitter) Seems like this is more applicable (although still a stretch) as they receive USD and then forward them on to BTC selle

It's definitely related to squat strength. It makes me feel light of my feet, well balanced and generally younger than any other form of exercise that I've done.

I find that it gives you a feeling of wellbeing that you can't get elsewhere. I don't mean that you can't feel good if you aren't strong. I mean the feeling of wellbeing that you get from it is unique and I haven't found it elsewhere.

Have you ever been strong? If not how can you evaluate this claim as it relates to you?

by richcollins 13y ago
It is instructive to see what happens to these very people as their squat strength goes up This is a claim worth investigating, not "macho bullshit"

by richcollins 13y ago
I've been lifting weights for 20 years and was always fairly strong but I felt I never got results that justified the amount of work I put in. I decided to try starting stength after hearing so many great things about it. In 3 months all

What does above mean in this context? If its later tx involving those addresses then it isn't a problem because there are none?

by richcollins 13y ago
AFAICT, this only applies to bitcoin-qt. Miners can still accept small tx into a block from other clients.

Right so that shows that what Keynesians actually advocate is theft. They go about it the easy way, printing money instead of taking it directly.

So that provides evidence that it doesn't work?

OK so it would be solved if money could magically clone itself? Imagine that the fed could press a button that would make all USD in existence (physical or digital) suddenly split from $1 into 2x$1. Would that work?

Maybe you can explain why the fixed quantity is a problem? If it had some way to allow bitcoins to "split" while maintaining their owner would that fix the problem?

You don't only have 2 choices. People save because its a better decision than spending at that given point in time. I have a consulting company. I save all of my profits so I can start a company that could conceivably create far more val

I think the point is that all spending is good spending. Imagine if we spent all of our resources building defenses against aliens. Wed all starve

by richcollins 14y ago
Yes wasting resources is an incredibly sound idea. Lets just increase taxes to 95% and spend it all digging ditches!

I was listening to a talk show on public radio a few months ago. The man being interviewed said it would be a great idea to build a defense against alien attack as a way to stimulate the economy. I laughed aloud and wondered what sort of

It doesn't matter if you keep converting your income to BTC as it comes in, because if you spend your USD income instead of buying BTC then you've effectively done the same thing.

The reason people aren't paying for things is because its hard to do, not due to deflationary concerns. If I were confident that the purchasing power of bitcoin was going to continue increasing relative to the USD, and all vendors accepted

The important consideration are the alternatives. He may easily create that much value but are there other people (substitutes) that could create as much or nearly as much for far less than 100M?

If the market wants more seeds won't the price increase as a result of the increased demand? If it doesn't want additional seeds, should we create them just to "reduce unemployment"? It seems like the market will price seeds in a way that

This way, he could bring commodity prices back up and maintain them at a level that would ensure producers a higher standard of living A high standard of living is precluded by high commodity prices.

I'd guess that the banks won't let you wire money out either.

This isn't something the free market can fix He assumes that people care and are willing to change technology but can't for some reason. In my experience, people don't care.

don't find making money exciting enough to pursue it as an end in itself Is this sour grapes or did they actually get better at making money before deciding it wasn't for them.

You could spend years in college or you could just start trying to solve problems collaboratively that lend themselves to principal components analysis. You'll learn PCA much faster via the later approach.

Oh so the server process hosting rails is itself queueing? Is that what they refer to as "dyno queueing"? I thought perhaps there was another server between the router and your apps server process.
