This is not the slightest bit amazing. You're being purposely obtuse by removing any and all context here.

The evidence in question, Ross's journals and chat logs, were presented in trial and subject to rebuttal. He wasn't being tried for those crimes; those charges are still pending, but they were material to the case and the defense

No. Intent and context matters. USPS/FedEx/UPS are businesses that primarily perform legal services, and follow US laws when its discovered that they were used for illicit purposes. On the other hand, Silk Road was built from t

That is because a lot of people are simply ignoring the evidence available since they have an ideological stake in Ross's non-violence. The balance of probability here is that Ross intended to kill 6 people and fucked it up.

Do you have a journal proven beyond a reasonable doubt to have been written by icelancer that includes them discussing how they paid to have a person killed? And did you also confirm that the payment for that supposed hit was transferred?

Im sure you can do that with a phone. Im not sure what the drone adds to the equation.

The actual computation done is not computationally useful. It only "secures" your bitcoins in the sense that an attacker has to put more economic input into their attack to match the economic input of the mining network. The act

Police do not react well to being filmed. What will likely happen is that your drone will be confiscated as "evidence" or destroyed. Its not as if cell phones do not exist to fill the same role here.

The 97% loss in value of the dollar is brought up again and again as if it's some shocking fact. But that drop happened over a century, and fiat money is not expected to be s long term store of value. So really, that "shocking&quo

That doesn't really answer much. Is he claiming the email is out of context or simply fabricated? Either one sounds a bit bullshitty to me.

That doesn't really apply when the execution is cloned as well. This phrase typically implies that there is a way to make a mark on a product beyond the initial idea. Marketing and leveraging existing user base is not a laudable cont

You don't have to get pregnant to be a parent. This fact doesn't have any bearing on the discussion.

They should fire someone for well-documented causes, in which case there is no issue. I happen to think that it should be non-trivial to fire someone. If they are a poor performer then it shouldn't be hard to actually document that

Its perfectly fine for a candidate to look for a culture fit. The problem here is that familial status is legally protected, so by bringing it up it puts the interviewer in a tight spot. If I reject a candidate who states such things, then

First of all, your use of the term "breeder" is pretty disgusting and you should feel ashamed of using it. I'm a man and maternity leave does not bother me despite it being "discrimination" on the face of it. For o

Bitcoin transaction fees are lower currently because they inflate the money supply to reward transaction processors. This puts downward pressure on the price. Once the inflation is cut off, its not clear what will happen with the fees. I

It can also be used to analyze space complexity. So generically saying "complexity" is also correct.
