Keynes's record on matters of public spending and monetary policy is a shaky one (see broken window fallacy). Not only is any level of public debt a threat to long-term stability, it's immoral. Generally speaking it's not us,

That's very true, but it is a private currency and part of that is individuals and private businesses can agree upon their own set of uses. Such as profits within one city in this case. You're right that it's not currency com

Hayek theorised this in 'The Denationalization of Money'. When government currencies become less stable, less valuable. Private, competing currencies can become a medium of exchange free from that. We're starting to see this

They're a business, just like anyone else. Unless we all start throwing thousands of donations at them, they have to find ways to monetise to keep up the awesome work they do. If it's both relevant and intuitive, then no harm done

I don't think they've ever made the case for large scale snooping software. Though you're correct that some Libertarians still want state military and justice system etc.

Just a passing remark. Wasn't trying to start a political discussion.

Don't get me wrong, I really like Peter Thiel, but it's hard to consider him 'Libertarian', whilst selling advanced snooping software to the U.S. government.

I've just finished The Lean Startup by Eric Reis. I'm now onto 'Zero to One' by Peter Thiel. Also read Business Adventures by John Brooks recently. Oh! And 'Tales of Mystery & Imagination' by Edgar Allen Po

I have a big whiteboard in my living room with three columns. To do, doing and done. Then I have loads of post-it notes. Each note has a title of what project it's for, then a brief description of what needs doing and a time estimate a

I'd argue you shouldn't be working on remote servers at all. Ideally you should be working locally and deploy using Capistrano, Jenkins, Bamboo or git hooks etc.

That's very true, I wonder why that is? I feel the same way very often. I'm not a particularly anti-sociable person either.

Yeah I can certainly see why he felt that way!

This seems the natural progression for programmers now. 10 year slog of hope decaying; relatively monotonous work, then a sudden urge to do something antithetical in pursuit of happiness. I guess I'll be in a log cabin in Iceland in 5

I said 'the tendency'. Also are you suggesting that alcohol isn't in anyway physiologically or psychologically addictive?
269.
