Mt Gox CEO resigns from Bitcoin Foundation

[�]Bitcoin_Charlie 130 points 4 hours ago*
This is actually good news. I applaud Mark and the MtGox team for making the right decision as I had to do the same. Speaking very lengthy to Mark and the team over the weekend, I see good news on the horizon for people who have funds stuck in MtGox (I also have funds in MtGox stuck) - Charlie

yeah i was listening to WTOP and jj green reported it as 'm t goke' and said it might have been a glitch rather than a theft so i'm glad 'utter incompetence' is being floated more openly as a possibility

Bent double, like the chins upon our necks,
Fat-calved, wheezing with strain, we cursed downstairs,
Till on the burning sun we turned our backs
And towards our distant rigs began to trudge.
Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots
But limped on, strapless. All were lame; all blind;
Drunk with our greed; deaf even to the sighs
Of disappointed mothers up above.

TAX! Tax! Quick, boys!-- An ecstasy of fumbling,
Fitting on the crypto just in time;
But someone still was yelling out and tumbling
And raving like a noob who just got scammed.--
Dim, through the ASIC smoke and thick green light
As under a rig's USB fan, I saw him selling.

In all my dreams, before my thick-rimmed sight,
The price goes plunging as he sits there, selling.

If in strawberry dreams you too could pace
Beside his prostrate, hairy, beached-whale form,
And watch the white eyes writhing in his face,
His flabby face, like a miner's creating joinder;
If you could hear, at every jolt, the bits
Come gargling from the tax-corrupted chain,
Obscene as statists, bitter as the fringe
Of admiralty flags they'll try us by--
My "friend," you would not type with such high zest
To man-children ardent for anonymous glory,
The old Lie: Dives aut iniquus est,
aut iniqui heres.

holy mazoley

so i have a few friends around here who are really, really smart tech people working for some top tier organizations, highly paid highly skilled etc. i dont mean cjs i mean actual computer scientists and crypto experts and poo poo.

anyway one of them came to me on saturday and said "do you have a machine that can do mining?"

i said "uh sort of but why would i want to?"

apparently a few got together and wrote their own pool that switches machines to mine whichever coin is the "best price" at the moment

im just sort of

stunned

i knew that they had an unhealthy interest but i didnt think they bothered to mine.

anyway i declined and told him i hope theyre reporting it as income and hes confident that the IRS wouldnt come after him so im just sitting back and waiting for this to come crashing down on my poor friends heads

smart people make the dumbest possible decisions sometimes

You may not realize this, but most of the employees for road construction contractors are themselves lower-middle class. So perhaps, just maybe, they can build their own roads, because they need roads, and know how to build them?

Segmentation Fault posted:

its important to understand that modern racism (i.e. its institutionalized form) was invented as a moral justification for slavery. Liberalism was being invented around this period and the idea that everybody has unalienable rights kind of flew in the face of the slavery structure. Instead of dismantling something that provided a lot of important labor it was easier to just justify it as "well these savages aren't really people so it's okay"

didn't jefferson start out anti-slavery? i mean as soon as he ran the numbers and saw how ridiculously profitable it was to have slaves (they make more on their own!) he switched sides but i seem to remember him being more egalitarian at the start

might have just been mythologizing by my objectivist dad though
