Or look at John Conway's game of life.... simple rules make complex behavior.
Cellular automata were an eye-opener for me. Suppose you've heard of Rule 110 also? Yes, but as of yet, no existence proof of the Rule 34 derivation of Rule 110.

Haha. Joke's on me. I expected it to be a false URL, riffing on the disgusting nasty-ass honey badger; what? he's eating the snake (eeew! - that's gross!). Imagine my surprise when it opened a page discussing some diet.

Good morning Bitcoinland. Back in the frosty north with my mouthful of titanium.
Thank god. Jimbo's back from the sunny climes. Bitcoin can stop crashing now.

Thanks for the link. Amazing piece from _unwriter. Which ever side of this debate you are currently on (ABC/SV/BTC), you should find something thought provoking and worthwhile to ponder upon.

There are games out there. And you can do stuff in them. Set conditions, variables. Then sit back and watch the madness unfold. Why wouldn't an Elder God do the same with us, just for teh lulz?
and then they program that ONE genius guy to create BTC and save all of the human/finance environment to live happy ever after? satoshi would be a NPC, thats why no one can find him, no longer needed in the simulation. This just in: Jimmy Hoffa discovered to be a NPC. Stay tuned for details at eleven.

Is that a real thing? It's pretty funny. Looking. Pretty funny looking.
Nay, mine is somewhat more ... pedestrian.
I love the modesty so often on display here. There's the self-effacing claim, and then there's the reality... Haha. Yep, that tops LamboVan, all right.

So, no; jbreher is not becoming nervous during these trying times. Get the fuck out of here with your ridiculous mischaracterizing projection defense mechanisms.
JJG is a controversial character: a WO staple food but unsavoury to some, a rhetorical nightmare for the discerning reader but a force feeder of sense for the noob and the faith losing initiate. One thing we can all agree with: his style has been shaped into memes by sympathizers and adversaries alike. Indeed. Perhaps?
That. What you did there. I see it.

Objective fact: I had already been through a number of proportional magnitude spike/crashes. Your dissembling does not change this reality.
Oh? So in your mind, you are smarter based on certain kinds of experiences? Not at all. However, living through several X increase followed by huge loss in one month's time cannot help but induce a lizard brain / emotional response. All I am saying is that I have been through more such cycles -- at least in bitcoin -- than you. And other asset classes, as a general rule, do not behave thusly. So likely more such cycles regardless of asset class. Accordingly, it seems unlikely that your characterization of my mental state is likely flawed. And may likely contain some measure of projection. I may or may not be smarter than you, but such would not have anything to do with my response to your characterization.

Whew! Go away for a few days, and all hell breaks loose.
Now that I'm all caught up, when tumbleweeds?

This is the BCH thread...not sv...
You seem to be lacking in basic reading skills. The thread is the Bitcoin Cash thread, not the BCH thread.

yeah elegance was traded for legal liability in ABC lose:lose DSV makes miners become illegal if im not mistaken. I prefer SV over BCH, but that assertion seems to be hyperbole.

The code is open source. Knock yourself out.

Even Jbreher is likely to becoming nervous during these trying times,
You forget. Your first rodeo in this arena was my fourth. I'm calm, cool, and collected. Not the first time with your attempts at patronizing phoney baloney, and you should realize, by now, that you likely don't know enough about me nor my experiences to actually lord over such information, even though I see that you are not timid in trying from time to time. blah, blah, blah You have mentioned several times that your first buys were at the $1000-ish, 2013 Dec-ish bubble. Right? Objective fact: I had already been through a number of proportional magnitude spike/crashes. Your dissembling does not change this reality. Frankly, I commend you on your commitment to dollar average down that entire downtrend. You deserve whatever reward comes your way for such hodl fortitude. Regardless, you are unlikely to have the same perspective as one who has endured such trying times a significant multiple of that you yourself has endured. Having been through this a number of times, OTOH, I am confident in what the future will bring. And whatever animalistic reactions I might have, have already been worked through in previous cycles. So, no; jbreher is not becoming nervous during these trying times. Get the fuck out of here with your ridiculous mischaracterizing projection defense mechanisms.

I took some out at the turn of the year in order to buy a lambo.
hahahahaha what happened to the van, man? A lambo. Not a Lambo. It's a Matador metaphor. Still driving the van.

So I need to ask, how many of you have basically hodl from the ATH till now.
Mostly codl hodl since years. As in, several boom/bust cycles. I have a minor percentage as 'trading stock'. I've described my laddered standing orders strategy several times in this thread. I make BTC when price is going down, and I make $ when price is going up. I took some out at the turn of the year in order to buy a lambo. IIRC the land was the 'rethorical' lambo? No, the land was pre-spike. We were on track for that purchase regardless of crypto profits or not. That's what workforce participation gets you. The rhetorical lambo was 'sheeit - I've seen this movie before. Several times. Let's convert some of this soon-to-crash asset into some other asset class'. Anyway, I have always assumed your stash is "quite healthy" in a way that if that's the only that you have cashed out it pales in comparison to your cold stash. And you could more than probably just buy it with from your salary anyways.
No salary any longer. Retired end of 2q18. I do have some more 'traditional' investments, but reinvesting any gains there, too. Though I may have to draw down somewhere, if cryptowinter drags on too long. So... do you have plans to ever cash out in a more significant way?
Not really. I can probably live pretty comfortably off harvesting volatility. Next spike, I'll take a couple percent off the table. I won't be able to call the top, but it won't matter. It'll be more significant only in that the next spike will make YE17 pale in comparison. So... 'Cash out'? MorpheusWhatIfIToldYouYouWontNeedToCashOut.png

You forget. Your first rodeo in this arena was my fourth. I'm calm, cool, and collected. Though -- as the picture will attest -- I'm getting a bit bored. The chairman of the bored. A lincoln monologue, even. even though his bcash nutjob crazy peeps were exacerbaters of this seeming pre-existing bitcoin condition.
Everybody wants to blame some externality for their woes. Guess what? You're not entitled. It's your own damn misery. Own it.
