Azathoth posted:Very misleading. Between an old-fashioned overdose, or blood poisoning from not getting a gangrenous limb amputated, or getting caught by a side effect they had no clue would occur, it's a race to see what kills them first. I have to think that the number of people who do research chemicals recreationally and manage to make it to 50 is vanishingly small. these people are doing gods work. once some researchers finally come around to testing all these new chemical compounds in the lab, they will already know what's safe for lab rats and mice and what to avoid all together.

QuarkJets posted:You're still giving them too much credit. A business or a country has no reason to use a bitcoin-like system. All of the potentially desirable qualities of such a system (cryptographically-secure electronic payments, distributed accounting) exist in other forms without the downside of having to burn enough electricity to power a small country in order to run it. A commonly found thing in the YOSPOS thread is that a lot of idiot bitcoiners on reddit think that Satoshi invented cryptography and distributed databases, so to them any payment system that uses cryptography is now just a derivative of bitcoin. can't buy precious research chemicals with fiat mahney, police will track you and sabotage all the research

TheQuietWilds posted:Bitcoin price flux is almost completely the result of social panic, and bears no relationships to any other indicators of the economy. Machine learning is dicey for things we understand pretty well in the market (like how precious metals usually increase in price during market volatility) and is mostly used for arbitrage and exploiting small fast "sure thing" trades that appear and disappear faster than humans can hunt them down. There a zero percent chance that will work. imagine: each person in a residential building is an artificial neuron. you activate your neighbour by hammering on the walls, and the volume is your edge weight. you also have a blockchain on your computer! that's a free decentralized neural network, free from government interference. just imagine the possibilities! e: nobody steal my idea, I have an uncle working at the patents office GABA ghoul fucked around with this message at 03:07 on Mar 17, 2016 |

It's like Amazon's mechanical Turk, but decentralized and with a blockchain. If you know, what I mean. Do you know what I mean?

Concerned Citizen posted:Yeah, I mean - all of the the blocks would be mined and no one would need to charge each other transaction fees. It would just be a way of instantly moving money from one side to another. In the case of banks, they already transact with each other constantly and generally trust each other, but it still takes days for a check or wire transfer to clear through the antiquated ACH system. So a custom blockchain might give banks the ability to sidestep that process and make certain transactions instantaneous since it would be impossible to misrepresent the amount of money available to you and ownership transfer would happen immediately per agreement between the banks. In essence it would be essentially a public ledger of contracts to a share of a pile of money, except the contracts are unfalsifiable cryptographic keys that can be transmitted instantly. 1.) I have never seen a single check in my entire life, nobody in the developed world uses that poo poo anymore. My freaking parents haven't seen a check in their lifetime. It's a solved "problem". 2.) How about you transfer money from one account to another account over a trusted network of banks? You know, also instantaneous, but without the blockchain. It's a solved "problem". What you need is for your medieval banking system to do some much needed modernization and not playing around with buttockscoinage.

This reminds me, back in the the day, when I used to read this thread, there was this one guy called "dank" or something. I remember he - tried to do a bitcoin source code audit and asked in a thread what #include means - worked on becoming a rockstar by practising guitar every week and looking down on all the moochers who are never going to achieve their goals in life - tried to open a hookah bar without any money or business plan and was begging for loans - got way too much into drugs and had a psychotic break where he saw his own death. Supposedly some biker gang was stalking him and was trying to kill him or something? - last thing I remember was that he was convinced to be the second coming of Jesus Christ and that his destiny was to organize the biggest rock festival in the world and create world peace. What happened to that guy? Was there ever any payoff?

Bahaha, I just remembered that one time some bitcoin shill went deep undercover in a camgirl forum. It took these "dumb sluts" something like three posts to figure out who he is, what bitcoins really are and that he has no idea what he's talking about. They absolutely destroyed him.
