Okay... this is what I am copying and pasting everywhere:



Hi Everyone,

I made a computer program in python to charge extra money from the Federal Reserve Board to Google. I am reaching for a 100 billion dollar price target goal so Google can sponsor my robot lab.

Everything to get the printing press program started is contained within this link. This is a time sensitive issue.

This program can really change the world for how much money the Federal Government gives to computer science. If you believe in this cause please spread this computer program like wildfire.

Like how china pegs their currency to the US Dollar. It is a method to keep a standard exchange rate across different currencies.

I used it as an expression of like an absolute selling limit. SO lets say it is 1 bitcoin per 8 dollars. I am not allowed to enter the market under 8, or 7.

Take what I need, but if I don't need anything, and the thing gets up to 9, I might be like dude. Maybe a little extra money right now might be alright.

How fast does it take "QE" to actually do anything after trickle down effect. This world market is so diverse with the U.S. dollar, there is much much more wiggle room than they believe.

Do we care about treasury prices? Yes, but there are layers upon layers upon layers upon layers from when the time the treasury actually puts those treasuries out to market, then takes those dollars to filter through the economy.

I introduce a new form of monetary stimulation... have the treasury pick something to spend their money on that involves more pure innovation, and less war.

How long does that innovation take to transfer into wealth from a crummy trickle down effect.... a lot less time with more money to spend hiring people in fields of innovation. That is for sure.

how about a version of that but the music is not on the cd's at all, there's just stickers on the cd's with qr codes that are read by a phone that sits in a dock nearby. the qr code opens the spotify page for that album or whatever. i don't know how spotify works.

quote:

Beginning in the early 17th century, artists routinely used optical aids to help them create realistic drawings. Lenses and mirrors were the "cutting edge technology" of their day (and sometimes, the trade secret) for making life-like images. In 1807, Sir William Hyde Wollaston invented the Camera Lucida—and brought life-drawing to a whole new level. Wollaston's device was simple: a prism on an adjustable stand. When an artist looks down through the prism, they see the world in front of them, plus their hand on the page, combined in perfect superimposition.

In short, a camera lucida allows you to trace what you see. And it does so in full daylight; there's no need for a dark shroud or box, as with a Camera Obscura. And that is the magic of the camera lucida: it's portable, easy to use, and—with a little practice—you just copy the world onto your page with a confident hand.

By the mid-1800s, camera lucidas were everywhere. Indeed, the device is so effective in assisting accurate life-drawing that, according to the controversial Hockney-Falco hypothesis, it's now believed that many of the most admired drawings of the 19th Century, such as the Neoclassical portraits of Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, could only have been made with a camera lucida. This becomes astonishingly clear if you try one—an experience we hope to share with as many people as possible, through this Kickstarter.
