You make good points, but each of these is solvable: 1) Require the code to be consistent. Tell the submitter how to do this. 2) Merges have to be straight forward, or you don't accept the submission. I think Linus Torvalds has the same str

The other datapoint may be dead wallets. I think it's very likely there are a good number of wallets from the early days of bitcoin where mining was still possible with normal hardware. A lot of people probably tried bitcoin out, mined a co

Anybody else get the feeling that we see an increasing amount of articles where the author writes about what he or she thinks bitcoin is? It's like multiple, recursive generations of FUD.

I'm really tired of the people shouting " THIS TIME Anonymous took it too far!". It reminds me of an interview with Jon Stewart where he talked about people telling him (paraphrasing): "I really like your comedy, but then you talked about

I'm really no expert on finance, which is why I put up my question as that. Your reply actually raised more questions than it answered. I get that high interest rates are bad for a market that is built mostly on credit and I can kinda-sorta

There are a couple of core points that this article seems to get completely wrong about bitcoin. I'm certainly no expert, but quotes like: > the perfect digital currency: they’re frictionless, anonymous[...] seem to suggest that the aut

Huge fan of paper as well. I think Merlin Mann called it the "ultimate ubiquitous capture". A lot of people just keep thick journals, but I like A6 cards that I compile into slim exercise books. I just capture anything that comes to mind on

My apologies, I thought we were both having a go. To explain it absolutely sober: There are people who actually work in advertising and marketing. Their job, more often than not, is selling something to people that they don't need. That's t
