I hope that one day you will truly care for another person.  On that day you will understand.

Or, perhaps you will build up your ego-centric attitude to the point that you will never allow anyone close enough to develop a bond.  You wouldn't be the first person to die alone and miserable.

Your road is the road to misery.  You won't believe me, and you won't care about the claim of some idiot on the internet, but it is reality.  You can reject it as false for as long as you'd like, but if you do so for too long, you'll never be able to escape the snare you've put yourself in.

I understand your cockiness is expanded by all the attacks you receive, and that is a shame.  If people only understood the monster they were creating, I'd like to think they would stop.  But, maybe they do understand, and like you, just don't give a damn.  After all, the only one who will suffer from your cockiness is you.

You seem to be in exactly the attitude I warned about when I mentioned the Yoga Sutras.  Check yourself before you wreck yourself.

I get you, but trust me when I say you're just using rhetoric to avoid really facing the big questions.

But nobody is around... so no perception occurred by a human.

But if there is no noise, why does the deer jump and run off?  Or are you counting the deer as an "individual" who is part of the "human experience"?

I know you're going to say "but how do you know the deer jumped if nobody was around?".  To this I would say, I don't know, but that doesn't negate the reality of the situation.  Unknown != Unreal.

So if a tree falls and nobody is around, it doesn't make a sound?

Doesn't that make you a Hedonist rather than a Nihilist?

I have a feeling licensing would be less of an issue outside the US.

While you may be far noisier than I ever was, your philosophy reminds me a lot of mine when I was younger.  There is some truth to your statements, but you're a bit over the top in assigning the worst of the world to the "status quo".  There really is a lot of good out there, but it takes more effort to see it.

I don't normally do this since a naive interpretation can lead you astray, but for you I will recommend you study the Yoga Sutras.  http://swamij.com/yoga-sutras-narrative.htm is an excellent read.  But, I'll warn you: if you get to the point (like I did) that you feel everything is perfect and doing the right thing takes no effort, check yourself before you wreck yourself.  If you do wreck yourself, you'll learn vastly more, but the biggest lesson you'll come out with is that sometimes not knowing really is better.

I'd hack it together for you for a few bitcoins, but I'm on vacation.  In the absence of spec-reading skills, I would suggest you look at this: http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/beginner/4307/, or as yogi suggested, use a library that does the heavy lifting for you.  I've not used wxBitmap, so I can't speak to it, but OpenCV has really easy image file writing APIs.  If you are using OpenGL, this link has code to write out a BMP from the buffer returned by glReadPixels: http://dave.thehorners.com/tech-talk/programming/124-opengl-writing-the-framebuffer-to-disk.  If you appreciate my google-fu, any bitcents sent to my signature address will be met with a corresponding level of gratitude.

That was just a little dump... more to come before we have a "big dump".

If respect is what you're looking for, quit trying to hustle.  Contribute to one of the many open-source projects surrounding bitcoin, or start your own in an area you see a need for improvement.  "Pay me so you can trust me" is not going to get you anywhere.

Sounds like you didn't use the proper order type.

Small market means people can troll all the elliott wavers.  When both major analysts are saying "up is the only option", down sounds pretty good if you have the funds to do some squeezing.

Get in line man... Delphi and Pascal are the only ones not on my list.  There are hundreds of other programmers in this community, and nobody ever gets work by advertising here.  Occasionally, there are job offers you can apply for if you keep a look out, but the market is saturated on our side.

You'd have much better luck with www.elance.com.  Mention bitcoin as an accepted payment method in your proposals.  Most will ignore it and just pay you in USD, but my hope is to raise awareness and eventually someone will take me up on my offer to work for less bitcoin (elance fees are 6-8% from each side, so it is less for them and about the same for me).

His public updates have been particularly wrong recently though.  In the past, they were better.  Still, I doubt he's intentionally screwing the public.

I believe you'll find in many cases that his public updates are just there to find suckers to take the other side of the bet he's advised his subscribers to make.

Yes, looking at the code it does appear to be the case.  However, you should be able to add a method to client.rb and call get or post on any URL you'd like.  Any more questions to bug me with during my vacation?

Use a puts or look at the code to see how the json is parsed.
