Might be a good business in hosting servers that the mafiaa cant have confiscated.  A data haven might yet prove to be the killer Bitcoin app. The idea has been tried on several occasions, all have been crushed by outside forces. The Principality of Sealand being both the most successful and most rediculous recent example that comes to mind. Generally speaking the Free State will not be a complete data haven. Piracy and e.g. child pornography will not be tolerated. Boo. You don't believe in property rights. You are limiting what I can do with my energy and matter with your IP garbage. |

Ron Paul has actually accepted the idea of competing currencies in refutation of just a single gold standard.

That's far too high. Don't break the bank. |

Why would it be against the license if you offered to give away the source code? Just because the binary is in the app store and the source is in a different spot it should be ok.
If it's all YOUR code and YOUR copyright, you can distribute it any way you want. If you're using others' code, the story is different. Yes. Understood. Why I don't get (and I know there is a reason) is why many open source licenses are a problem with the Apple app store. What is the specific licensing issue? The code isn't modifiable to the end user. It's just BS due to the 'forced freedom' aspect of many licenses. |

Anyway, I decided for all future employment, I will make people sign a contract, with GPG and all that jazz.
I don't know how to write a good contract, but it's better to know that you're fired now rather than knowing that you got fired 4 weeks later.
A good contract is a clear contract. It's not too difficult. |

I spent a good few hours speaking with the man last night discussing the elimination of the gold standard and competitive private currencies. Eventually the subject came to Bitcoin. After firmly convincing him that Bitcoin is the monetary standard of the future, he wants to back his entire campaign with BTC. I am negotiating with him to become his funding manager when it comes to Bitcoin funding.
Well, this is going to be huge.

Live everyday as if it's your last. Dream as if you'll live forever. I was reading an article in my favourite magazine which said that women lie more than men. Do you think this is honestly true? My personal belief says no. Well because I have been hurt by both women and men. Men and women are the same. Lots of movers are women such as Jocelyn Bell, and nihilism a philosopher such as Ayn Rand. Because she had that feminine outlook from her childhood and the experiences a young girl (such as myself) has to deal with like the attention .etc I have found that this gives us a unique perspective perspective on life that allows for interesting 'out-of-the-box' thinking. In some ways this happens so often, that there is a strong argument to a genetic component as I read has been proved by scientists. Personal experiences prove this to me. Atheism FTW!!!  Ayn Rand most likely despised nihilists and the idea of subjective morality. |

I just tried arguing with people that driving higher than the speed limit or eliminating the speed limit altogether would lead to safer travel. If you were to drive faster -- not recklessly -- in your daily commutes you would statistically be subject to less accidents. 1) you would be forced to be aware of your surroundings and 2) people would be more aware of your movement. I have read quite a lot of research papers about road accidents, but I haven't seen any research that supports or dismisses your claim. What I notice however is that the speed I need to "stay awake" is increasing as I get more used to driving at a certain speed. In the beginning even driving below the limit would feel very fast, but now I can be 20% above and still be bored. No matter how alert the speed makes me, higher speed leaves less time to react, so at some point it would be better to be bored. Anyway, the number of deaths is usually what is targeted, not the number of accidents. Above about 55-70 MPH (depending on the kind of accident) the chance of dying in an accident starts increasing significantly, so naturally it is more effective to lower the speed. Well, there is a middle ground. I guess what I am mainly against is the overconfidence speed limits and other road restrictions give to drivers. |

I depend on violence to defend the right to my life.

It all gets acquired by violence eventually. As for the long-term, I can't even be certain of the results of my actions.
Would you agree that if you endorsed violent behaviour, you would likely be increasing the probability that you would become a victim of violence? Not necessarily. There's a lot of people out there.  .. Last try Ok, if everyone endorsed violent behaviour, would you be more likely to become a victim of violence? Sure. However, that's a big if. Anyways, I'll make sure I am armed. |

What if initiating violence is profitable?
If you aquire your resources through violence, peaceful people will not want to trade with you. Just the history of the Roman Empire alone refutes this claim. Ok .. So lets say that you personally are shopping for a thing. You find two people selling the thing you're looking for. One of them has aquired the thing through violence, the other through voluntary exchange. Which would you personally rather deal with? Whatever is cheaper. Cheaper in the short term or long term?

Power is not something that is decided on philosophical considerations. It is not a social contract. It is an empiric reality.
It's nowhere close to a reality. It's a subjective anomaly. Anything affecting another sentient organism could be considered an act of power. Its true meaning is subjectively defined. |

Oh, for Pete's sake!
Capitalism isn't a political ideology! It's an economic model! Capitalism is indifferent to the ideologies!
Ditto, What ^-He-^ says. Capitalism is a foundation for all economic models irrespective of political models. Any model that does not incorporate a supply/demand as its foundation, fails and falls. Liberalism, Socialists, etc... only exist on the backs of Capitalists no matter what country one comes from. Name any country, I can show Capitalism at work. I couldn't of said it any better. |
