Can you give more information on the FCC approval process? What requires approval exactly? If people designed open-source hardware plans, then made the hardware, then shipped it, at what point is FCC approval necessary?

Looks like an awesome service... I need a replacement for Google Reader so I'll try this one out. Also, please consider accepting bitcoin so I can pay without revealing my private credit card information. Update: I am trying it out right no

At first glance, colonizing Mars sounds awesome. But upon reflection, being a debt slave on a desert planet sounds less appealing.

If you don't like Facebook surveillance then you can opt out by not using it. But you can't opt out of government surveillance. You didn't address this important fact.

I felt the same way when I discovered bitcoin last year. Here are some books that I read that helped: * "End the Fed" by Ron Paul * "Economics in One Lesson" by Henry Hazlitt * "The Mystery of Banking" by Murray Rothbard * "What has governm

A solution would be that when your page 2 expires then you should be redirected to the most up-to-date page 2 rather than being told page 2 doesn't exist.

I don't understand why this is better than just using a public/private key to represent identity. Why involve the email operator? Why can't I log in by having my browser sign a certificate, without involving a third party at all?

I experience this argument all the time for being both an atheist and a libertarian, except replace "archetype" with "stereotype". People assume all atheists fit into some stereotype they saw on TV, and therefore I must be exactly like that

Only part of a truecrypt volume changes when you make a change to the data within. Since Dropbox intelligently syncs files in parts, only part of a truecrypt volume has to be re-uploaded when something changes -- not the entire multi-GB fil

Right. If you think you're dealing with 100 people, but it's actually 1 person with 100 addresses, then they can determine which output address is yours because it is the only one that isn't theirs.

I've realized there's a flaw in my method which is that it's not anonymous. If someone inputs X bitcoins, and no one else outputs X bitcoins, then whoever receives X bitcoins is the same as the person who submitted X bitcoins. It's necessar

I may not understand this method correctly, but there seems to me to be an obvious way to generalize this method to work where the parties involved are not sending the same number of bitcoins. In their method, each person i with accounts A[

Yes I have the book at hand, but it's on Kindle, and it's somewhat painful to look up the references on a Kindle. Thanks for giving me these articles. I will read them.
