To what extent is that statement true? I don't think that deleting files through software is considered permanent deletion.
I think he's referring to the way most OSs "delete" files. It's marked as "deleted", but "still there". At least as long as the OS doesn't overwrite that sector. File recovery software might help with that.

[...] and then need two months to deploy an emergency hard fork if something bad happens. Where do you get two months from? The last time there was an "emergency hard fork" situation the matter was resolved in ~ two days, IIRC.

Somehow bc.i didn't push your tx to the network. It didn't show on blockr, blocktrail and insight. I have now pushed it manually for you. Shouldn't be long now.

It would be nice for a future version of bitcoincore to include a text versions of the error codes so that users can interpret things like -8 means "missing path argument" or something like that without having to post here or grep through source code for the interpretations. Don't get me wrong, error codes are useful and awesome, but eventually it's nice to provide a text based version of the error code along with the numerical one. Really, the numerical one is more useful for API usage.
Open an issue on github.

Is there a Windows version of rsync? Software that does a full backup once and on subsequent backups only copies over the files that have changed (incremental backup)?

It's also officially summer.

Boring in the way that it just simply works?

It's down for me. Just the Trezor ad shows in the lower left corner.

Historically, the bitcoin community loves to eat whatever Gavin is serving up, [...] Huh? Stopped reading after that.

Just report to mod and be done with it.

What coin would you actually recommend to mine then?
If you're talking about software, you can use cgminer: https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminerI think it's the most profitable one and it's the one I've used without an issue. He's talking about making a quick buck. cgminer is a miner software and has little to do with profitability. Much more depends on the equipment.

Unless you have a complete potato internet i.e you have trouble refreshing this page, you are more than fine on bandwidth.
Some beg to differ: nullc / gmaxwell: On bandwidth, it really is a problem for many users. For buffer bloat affected routers it Bitcoin Core currently makes your internet connection completely unusable periodically, multiple second ping times that kill web loads and knock out VoIP-- even when you are outbound only. After moving to silicon valley and finding myself inflicted with DSL instead of the nice FiOS I had back east, I've intentionally not fixed the problem (by sticking a FQ-CoDeL linux router in front of the DSL modem) for myself at home (because only ultra geeks will use that fix and I want to experience what other people experience), but it's gruesome and I have to turn off Bitcoin during conference calls. (This is also actually a problem on my offices newly installed 160/30mbit comcast service). https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/37vsh4/interview_with_gavin_andresen_and_peter_todd_on/crqlxfc

IIRC, the recommendation is to have just one node to the outside world and all nodes on the inside network connect to that one. Different port won't help, as other clients will look for port 8333. You could consider having your one node available on TOR as well though. That way you'd have "two" nodes, one on "clearnet" and one on TOR, but of course on just one PC with a single instance of Bitcoin Core.
