I'm a contractor who needs a bit of extra work at the moment. HTML/CSS/JS are my thing! I'm really good at turning PSD into clean HTML and web related work in general.

I'm not a graphic designer, though, but I have a contact that I can subcontract. Or perhaps you can get someone else to produce a psd.

Coding in any language is cool with me. I'm also happy to do any continuing work you might have.

Please contact if interested.

On the contrary, this competitive behavior is exactly what makes a healthy market work. Is competition and trade secrets stifling the growth of the computer industry?

Greed is good. I say MORE COMPETITION! Let the games begin!

Openness and competition is not contrary to each other.

Openness is fine and so is competition. But forced openness is counterproductive, as is discouraging competition and entrepreneurship.

Another problem with our community is the dilemma that mostly most of bitcoiner bring out their real life highly competitive personality into bitcoin, how we can grow if we competitive at each other?, we should approaching to more openness from one's trade secret not just kept to themselves.

Someone should put this guy's theories to the test and lock him in a cell with nothing but 10 gallons of water and a party sub.  As his food sources are depleted, their value will rise and I'm sure that before he starves he'll discover new sources of nourishment* he didn't know existed before and he'll be better off than ever.

Someone should put this guy's theories to the test and isolate a bunch of people on a planet with nothing but the resources on it.  As their food sources are depleted, their value will rise and I'm sure that before they starve they'll discover new sources of nourishment they didn't know existed before and they'll be better off than ever.

A bucket of water and a sandwich are insufficient to sustain one human. you're argument does not follow. Give one man a plot of land and some seeds and we might have a valid analogy.

I agree that what you just wrote is utterly senseless and incoherent. But that is not what I said. A contract is an INFORMATION right. A contract is not the scribblings on a piece of paper, but the information content of that contract is enforcible by the use of physical force. Similarly IP is an information right. So they have something in common. The argument "I can do whatever I want with my PHYSICAL property as long as I don't infringe your PHYSICAL property" is what most libertarians use against IP laws, but the same argument can be used against contracts. In both cases you are refusing to acknowledge that information may be the legitimate source of physical force.

Again, this is a non-sequitur. A contract is an agreement between individuals, a meeting of the minds, as it were.


Who cares? It's just information and I can do whatever I want with MY body so long as I physically don't harm you. Why isn't that a valid argument?


You: "a contract is information. IP is information. therefore any argument used against IP can be used against contracts."
What kind of logical fallacy is this?

Contracts and IP, though having a common property of being "informational" or abstract, are none the less different things. A contract is agreed upon by consenting parties. IP is not.

The sun is yellow. A banana is also yellow. Therefore I can eat the sun. non-sequitur.

well, first off I need live communication with someone, sorry.  and I think I may need someone who can do all that other stuff.  I'll keep you in mind for other projects thou .. I know I'm going to need more (hopefully soon if all goes well)


Cool. I also program (PHP, javascript, sql). I'm happy to do any coding job for BTC. Thanks for keeping me in mind.
427  Economy / Lending / Re: Looking for a Pure Trust Loan(REOPEN!) on: April 02, 2011, 12:57:50 AM
Hi, I would like to ask anyone in the bitcoin community if they would consider Loaning 45BTC's

My hopes are to increse my personal amount of "forum trust" ...

... But Mr.HighTrust could be Mr.xyz in disguise, Heavily and Effectivly boosting his own trust off fake users.


xyz: Hi I would like a loan of XBTC, will repay YBTC.
abc: Sure, here's XBTC.

later...

xyz: here is your YBTC back.
abc: thank you. I and the other forum members will surely trust you now, xyz.


xyz == abc. Problem?

I'm serious about the job. the code in now xhtml complient:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=artemis.mine.nu&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

The page is blank because it's ONLY a layout. It's just to show that I can code. I'll make it look however you want and add layouts for the pages you mentioned (shopping cart, store front etc) if you agree to do business.

Please email me. I don't have skype.


If that's true, how do I contact you privately then ... preferably gpg or pgp,
p.s. skype is just a download ..?

I sent a private message with my pgp key.

I don't have any windows installs and skype on linux is crap, plus I hate skype.

Note that I'm not a graphic designer. I can style a web page to look like anything (within reason), but I can't design logos or fancy textures. I might be able to subcontract such work, though.

Here's a rough sketch I whipped up as a demonstration:
http://artemis.mine.nu

Tell me how you want it changed. Of course, colors and other styles will be added if your interested in making a trade.

you can contact me at:
daniel@artemis.mine.nu

Interesting, and with the exception that it is not xhtml 1.1 compliant as I requested, it is just a blank pages .. no layouts .. nice ...

So, I take it as this point everyone is mocking me, fine .. if any one is serious, contact me on Skype and well discuss it live.

Could you be a bit more descriptive? What exactly is a faceplate? Do you just want a proper layout/template for your site? Do you want a logo designed? There's nothing to work with on your existing site; you just have a menu and a grey box.

I'm good with html/css and am interested (for 600BTC! :-P~).
433  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Witholding transactions on: March 29, 2011, 02:43:25 AM
What are these non-miner relays?

Basicly every other client that the owner doesn't have enough incentive to bother with making this kind of low-level code change in order to potentially nab a few extra bitcoins.  Any regular client, whether they are generating or not.  Any future 'lightweight' client that can't generate.  And any future client modified as a clearinghouse service for commerce, which would have a vested interest in undermining such self-serving behavior.

That's true now, but in the future I expect code that provides an easy interface to managing the withholding of transactions to be ubiquitous.

Also, it seems to me that in the future, any node that relays all transactions would almost certainly be generating. If you're going to invest in bandwidth and hardware to maintain a copy of the blockchain, you'd be crazy to not also generate.

Will there be any non-miner relays?

Sorry to belabor the point. I may be way off target here.

If that's a problem, we can just goes wind energy or solar energy, or whatever alternative energy source.

Energy are not something that I worry too much about. The market will eventually force our movement to alternative energy source or force us to become more efficient at using energy.

This.

As long as the government allows the market to function, which it probably won't.

Future technology in energy is also a very significant, but rarely considered factor. The market will innovate where needed.
436  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Witholding transactions on: March 28, 2011, 11:08:12 PM
What you guys seem to be saying is that there isn't anything to stop (no disincentive) miners from withholding transactions, but it's okay, because they will be well connected and get the transactions anyway. Won't this result in bottlenecks at the nodes that do actually transmit all transactions?

What are these non-miner relays?
437  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin destruction or reduction in liquidity? on: March 28, 2011, 10:48:51 PM
Ok I'm new here.  I love the concept and have been turning it over in my head.

Can anyone help me with these figures and concepts.
I see on the bitcoin watch that there is about 150 thousand bc going through an hour?
Is there anyway I can track this over time? 

All transactions are encoded into the block chain. You could conceivable write a program which reads the chain and extracts this information. Such a program may already exist. Try digging though this web site:
http://bitcoincharts.com
Also, consider that this number does not accurately represent economic activity, as many of these transactions are from people "paying themselves" or moving money between wallets, getting payed out from a mining pool, etc. Not necessarily trading goods and services.

What happens with lost or deleted wallets.  This will be an ongoing issue, especially during this early phase of the market when the value of a bc has high volatility.  1 bitcoin lost now could represent huge value lost in the future.

Does anyone think these lost wallets will affect overall liquidity of the market.  Or will it just push the deflation rate higher?

Lost bitcoins are lost forever. Since bitcoin is infinitely divisible, this is not a problem for the currency. Lost bitcoins just increase the value of the existing bitcoins; monetary deflation. Backup your wallet!

I don't see how lost bitcoins would affect the liquidity.
438  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Witholding transactions on: March 27, 2011, 08:37:55 PM
I'm not sure if this has been discussed. I couldn't find anything in the forums.

What is to stop miners from withholding transactions from their peers to keep the transactions fees for themselves? They could keep transactions with high fees and only transmit them after they solve a block, thus gaining an advantage.

Sure, any single transaction is transmitted to multiple miners, but if lots of miners start engaging in this behavior, then it's conceivable that honest miners will be missing out on lucrative transaction fees.

How do you guys see this scenario playing out?

I think you'll need to be clearer. What are you selling exactly? China, as in dish-ware?

I'm not personally interested in buying anything, but if anyone is, you'll probably need to give them some more details about your business.

440  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I solved 7 blocks yesterday on: March 09, 2011, 12:28:05 AM

Oddly, 4 of the blocks were solved by a single 5970.


Hmmm... I'm interested in buying this 5970. how much?
