...shacked up with some moron who has agreed to have sex with you in your poor medical condition (what the heck is she thinking), and you've proceeded to have children with her (I assume maybe incorrectly)

My gf had a horrific peptic ulcer same as I did in May 2012 but she was receiving incorrect medicines and care from the doctors in Pagadian City, so I sent her the correct medicines and coached her through a similar near death experience over the phone even I had never met her in person yet. I had only known her for a month on the internet and few phone conversations. Actually what prompted me to take a great interest in her was I remembered that horrific pain (and I can handle a lot of pain, I've played an entire football game with a severely broken nose for example) that was essentially burning the internal organs due to the stomach acid leaking into the abdominal cavity, i.e. burning alive without pain killers for 3 days nonstop counting the seconds in a delirium and burning tissue pain.

So I helped her out of the goodness of my heart, not expecting anything in return. Because I really know what that pain feels like and I could tell from her Facebook postings that she was in extreme pain.

And no I don't have any kids with her and I specifically told her no kids now because I have no means to support them and I can't give the time because I am working nonstop.

Also I have told her that she is free to leave me if she can find a better man for her and closer to her age.

But we seem to understand, appreciate, and respect each other, so those are some of the important attributes that makes a relationship. We don't share too many intellectual interests, but we both like to dance and sing. She is a much better singer than me though. Also we seem to have similar sense of humor at times. Frankly I don't know how she can tolerate me working all the time, sleeping at all different times of the day and night, and inability to have sex for the past months. But I am working on improving these matters.

You Sir, have no couth. You just proved that you are one of the people that your own ancestors would NOT approve of.

Yes I was promiscuous sometimes in my life [...redacted...]. I was also in monogamous during periods of my life. Btw, I never used recreational drugs in my life, other than alcohol in my teens and early 20s. I don't even drink alcohol any more and I don't even consume any processed sugar nor processed vegetable oils. The only grain I eat now is oatmeal. I probably have much more discipline than you.

I have no idea how my sexual and relationship learning experiences is relevant to my reputation as you are trying to slander it. You've lost all my respect entirely. I now view you as utter and complete trash that should be entirely ignored.

Also I don't know if you noticed but promiscuous sex is necessary for the evolutionary (Anti-fragile, resilient) reproduction of the human sexually transmitted diseases and plagues race.

I fixed the above for you because I wasn't sure if you knew about the reprehensible lack of RESPONSIBILITY of the sexual unions as you of Earth have come to practice them, resulting in the murders of the unborn and the USE of another for gratification of human power needs...

Enjoy your pagan Sungod religious delusion.

[...]

I don't want to disrespect your beliefs. Belief systems are a personal matter, because I understand diversity of thought is essential to existence as I explained in my seminal essay "Information Is Alive!":

http://unheresy.com/Information%20Is%20Alive.html#Algorithm_!=_Entropy

First of all, I have come to understand that all religions originated from whorship of the Sun, and you can see that the story of Jesus is just a nearly exact re-enactment of the story of the Sun God Horus.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sD9f0XU_S78

Horus, Eqypt 3000 B.C.[1]
* Born Dec. 25
* Mother was a virgin
* Star in East
* Adorned by 3 kings
* Teacher at age 12
* Baptized/Ministry at age 30
* 12 disciples

[...]

Btw, I don't advocate some of the shit outcomes that you are assigning to me.

3. Once the issue was recognized, the founder of the coin issued a fix within a few hours to adjust the difficulty more quickly than the algorithm included in the Litecoin code.

Appears they've just incriminated themselves, by admitting they didn't immediately halt the mining by informing the public and declaring a fork with a restart was forthcoming, but instead let the instamine run on for several hours.

4. The only two members of the development team at the time were Evan Duffield and InternetApe. InternetApe sold all his coins early on, and is no longer involved with the project. All other members of the current team joined later. InternetApe was able to accumulate 160K DASH over the first weeks of the project so that should provide an idea of the range a founding member was able to accumulate. So the launch issues and high rewards happened to everyone equally and there was no bad intention, just part of a young hobby project that later became a much more serious project.

How can Evan know that Kyle Hagan sold all his DRK unless Evan was controlling Kyle's mining equipment. Notice how Evan refused to disclose how many DRK he mined. He also doesn't disclose who Kyle sold his DRK to and for what price.

smooth are you not understanding my logic? Everything Evan is writing in that document appears to me to be incriminating. Here is another example:

6. These early mined tokens had no value at the time and many people just traded them OTC or sold them in exchanges very early on. There was no benchmark and no way to know Dash was going to grow and become a bigger project so most first day miners just sold their coins.

How can he know what the first day miners did on OTC unless he was buying all the coins that were sold or was in communication with all the first day miners.

He claiming or admitting that the first day miners were a close knit group.

smooth are you not understanding my logic? Everything Evan is writing in that document appears to me to be incriminating. Here is another example:

Did you see me disagree?

Incriminating or not, at best it is obviously all double-talk, half truths, and speculation presented as fact. That alone is enough to make any sane person want to stay the fuck away.

It is either fact that he could know what he claims to know, in which case they need to disclose all the facts they knew. For example, if they can know what all first miners did, then they must disclose the numbers.

Else it is speculation painted as fact which is a violation of proper disclosure for investment securities.

So either way, it appears to be incriminating w.r.t. securities law in the USA, but note IANAL.

The House of Cards known as XCoin, DarkCoin, DRK, Dash, Dashpay, appears to be nearing its deathstar destiny.



Please don't blame smooth, as he didn't post this here. I am the one quoting it for future SEC/FinCEN investigators and also to alert Dash investors and pumpers of the potential legal and market price implosion implications per the upthread analysis:

More deceptive and misleading statements about the instamine that Dash continues to use to scam investors even now, this time an in "Official Communication".

https://dashpay.atlassian.net/wiki/display/OC/Dash+Instamine+Issue+Clarification

Repeats many of the unsupportable or false claims mentioned in the OP from the old Darkcoin FAQ such as coins being redistributed, the nature of the distribution, and where and how large holders obtained their coins. Omits critical information about key events surrounding the instamine such as the early launch and the deliberate withholding of development plans until after the instamine was complete.

Also mischaracterizes the origin of the instamine coins as being the Litecoin difficulty adjustment algorithm which is absolutely false. Most of the "extra coins" came from the absurdly-high block rewards due to a "bug" (500 coins/block IIRC, roughly 285 times higher than now). If Dash had constant block rewards as did Litecoin (for four years), its instamine would have been very small, as Litecoin's was (in fact even smaller, since the Dash had a difficulty adjustments at 4x the frequency of Litecoin).

Yes but you can clearly see that they are saying "and other schemes in which these currencies are used to facilitate fraudulent, or simply fabricated, investments or transactions".

There is still nowhere that says cryptocurrencies as a whole are fraudulent. The statement is that fraudsters are being enticed to use them for fraudulent purposes. It only talks about the rising use of cryptocurrencies. It no way does it label cryptos as illegal securities or warn users (or devs) that they might be in trouble now, or in the future.

How are you interpreting the statement above to apply to any crypto in existence?

Re-read the entire analysis in this thread.
1104  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi,BCNext = TPTB_need_war? on: April 08, 2016, 04:20:16 AM
I'm not directly referring to you, but I will say that how people conduct themselves says everything about them.

What about Nirvana, Jimi Hendrix, Linus Torvalds (<--- click this!), Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, etc..

They accomplished nothing.

Well everybody accomplishes something.  Whether it's good or bad is another story.

The people on his list were among the best at what they did. You're not even a very accomplished troll, maybe flashing your balls would help....

Wait a second... you think "Nirvana, Jimi Hendrix, and Mike Tyson" were the best at what they did?  On what grounds are you making that comment?  Drug addiction or thuggery?

I think I've already identified your problem.

[...]

The reason you don't like what I'm saying is because you know that I view you as "not the right type of person", and you'd be correct about that assumption.  Imo, anyone who makes comments about "crowdsourcing a Jenna Jameson android"...

In your rigid world, the only art would be Frank Sinatra. We would all use anti-bacterial soap all the time (and be infected with superbugs). And Linus Torvalds doesn't even deserve recognition in your response. Each of those mentioned above were the best at new genre, e.g. Mike Tyson mastered the combination of power, speed, and efficiency at the heavyweight division and his short arms had a lot to do with it (not only due to the power+speed, but also that he only had to bob his head efficiently to slip punches so he cold stay in close). You don't even appreciate the finer details of analysis and diversity. In short, you appear to be a blind simpleton with an oversized Trump ego.

Btw, apparently bipolar people are statistically more creative.

Also I don't know if you noticed but promiscuous sex is necessary for the evolutionary (Anti-fragile, resilient) reproduction of the human race. And women practice hypergamy and men practice promiscuity, because it is an evolutionary strategy. Religion is apparently another evolutionary strategy, perhaps to countervail the prior instincts, so as to prevent defection from society. This is science. If you don't like it, nature doesn't care. Nature is more complex and diverse than (and ignores/trashes daily) your simpleton rigidness.

Can you invalidate any of Shelby's criticisms of synereo? If not, why are you wasting everyone's time? Besides the obvious of having a bag of synereo that your emotionally bound to defend until it reaches some set price goal that you think will make you a success.

All of Shelby's criticisms of Synereo are his personal opinions.  There's nothing to invalidate.

No I explained the marketing science for why a main aspect of their stated feature set has no use case.

generalizethis, obviously do what you want, but I think it is sufficient to let him have the last post on this matter. For me, our elucidation of this thread is already clear and there is nothing he can say that will change that, other than to apologize.

You should have read that more thoroughly. You don't have to pay anything to access the content. Instead you are offered with a donation option that can further enhance the content quality.

You should have read that more carefully:

I don't think anyone ever paid their rent from their TipJar.

If you have a specific project, you can crowdfund to get the necessary economy-of-scale to make it work. But just TipJar that sits there is afaik pretty much insignificant.

So while it sounds nice, the economics ostensibly don't work:

Read the linked "why ChangeTip must die".

Perhaps you will argue that tips will be greater if people have an easier and more instant way to tip.

Let's say I have 10,000 readers per month at my blog, and 5% of them tip me on average 50 cents. That is $250 per month. That won't even pay rent. And 5% is I think fairly high conversion rate.

Also I think people get tired of tipping. It sounds nice and everyone is motivated at the start, but over time they will grow weary of the cognitive load of, "who do I tip this month?". They have to organize all their web activity and analyze it. The cognitive load is the real killer.

Nick Szabo mentions Ethereum's "advantages" over Bitcoin at the 13:30min point. Unfortunately he seems to be totally oblivious to the technical criticism we enumerated in the Ethereuem Paradox thread.

Edit: his pitiful defense of Oracles starting at 33:00min convinces me he is not grounded in any sense of reality of adoption.

See also more discussion at around 01:00:00.

58:00 - Block chains can't out perform Tx/sec of Visa w/o losing the trustless attribute. I will challenge him on that with my white paper and argue that we can't have the trustless attribute w/o scaling!

59:00 - He wishes Ethereum would not switch to proof-of-stake. He speculates about combining proof-of-work with proof-of-stake, but gives no details.

01:00:00 - he doesn't seem to recognize that Oracles entirely break Nash equilibrium. Sounds to me like they are just ignoring that this will only work with centralization.

They believe that users will agree to be paid to watch some ads in order to earn the BTC to pay to not see ads on their other favorite sites. That is the carrot. The stick is that normal ads will be blocked by default for all users.

Problem is that there are much more lucrative monetization gamification models than advertising, which spam and intrude on users less. Advertising is going to die and be replaced with superior gamification which is more attuned to users' preferences.

Also users and publishers don't want to hand such control over to the Brave team. The only solutions that will be widely adopted will be those not controlled by anyone, i.e. decentralized protocols.

Brenden Eich better stick with his core competency of the programming language Javascript.

Spot on! advertising is the proverbial megaphone, even when it's targeted to people who have shown some 'interest' it's an inferior method compared to even product placement which is subliminal. I know if a blogger has gained my trust for being authentic and knowledgable in something, I will always consider their recommendations, but currently have little way to micro compensate them. Even on this forum there are users who's opinions I rate very highly, and if there was an easy way to tip them I would more often (i.e browser plugin). I'm not going to open a wallet and send them 50 cents, but I would if it literally was one click in my browser.

I don't think anyone ever paid their rent from their TipJar.

As my family would say, "There are the right type of people, and there aren't."  It has nothing to do with being "racist" or "intolerant".

[...]

Some of us aren't pretending.

[...]

Hey, lol, I didn't say I approved of everybody on those hangouts.

I evaluate people mostly on their productivity, not mostly on their personality. I'm fairly open to learning to appreciate the different personalities of people as long as it doesn't interfere with my productivity and interests.

So agreed, that rigid type of attitude in your family is not compatible with me.

Maybe there is some overlap between certain personality traits and productivity in certain jobs. And when that science is clear to me, I apply it.

For me, it is all about results, not the bullshit noise and pretension.

Those who are blinded with their pretension on personality will miss my train as it leaves the station.

Then I posit yours are rolling in their graves now with your nonsense in this thread.

I'm certain that's not true.  They were hardcore conservatives, and I'm 100% positive yours were too.

You mean I suppose Protestant values. They weren't conservatives w.r.t. disrespecting the rule of the King of England or their independence from the North.

Well yes I grew up in the South (yet transferred to California for the final 3 years of high school) and it was much more conservative and even it has modernized, it is still the Bible Belt of conservative morals, yet my birth place New Orleans is also sin city.

In any case, I rejected all that in my youth. I was anti-rascist going against my grandmother's (on father's side) values, and I think she became less rascist in later years as influenced by the change in the attitudes of her grandchildren and children.

I am definitely not conservative on morals (my multiple parents were extremely liberal and even I rejected my mother's use of MaryJane which she hasn't smoked for many decades). I am conservative on fiscal issues and against big government. I actually love the hospitality of Southerners and I also love to do that for visitors. I am overly kind to strangers. I like to sit out on the porch and chitchat. Etc..

We all have our different personalities and I guess we will have to accept that yours and mine are different.

That's different, and you (should) know it.  You keep your public life professional and your private life private.

I don't follow any archaic rules. I follow what seems to be working and adjust as needed.

You are correct that I totally reject that aspect of American culture.

This concept of a false veneer that we try to pretend we are in public, is to me an anathema to meritocracy.

That doesn't mean I am striving to be unprofessional. To me professionalism is about accomplishments. Professionals accomplish what they say they will. They work hard. The approach their job seriously and with complete dedication.

Hey if you want to see some unprofessional behavior, go watch some Synereo Hangouts. Wasting time going off on tangents and wasting time talking about extraneous personal jokes, far off topic anecdotes, etc.. You attacking my posting of a medical condition involving my balls is the epitome of unprofessional nonsense. I have tried to tell now that in my current circumstances, I have been unable to cure this condition over the past several years. And so I am desperate to try to find help on ideas about it. I received a very good idea from rangedriver, which I am experimenting with now.

Another reason I opened up more about my health, was because before there were posters in this forum accusing me of faking an illness. So before I withheld details of my health and was attacked. Then I post more details, and I am attacked.
1115  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi,BCNext = TPTB_need_war? on: April 07, 2016, 05:34:27 AM
You now have a "public image", because you posted your crotch on the world wide web.

I have posted many photos of myself other than example medical photos of a medical ailment on the testicles. And those are not my testicles. I found that image from Google search.

Ok.  I stand corrected.  Still, it's pretty disgusting, and imo, you'd be better off keeping your personal issues off the internet.

Medical issues can be disgusting. Our ancestors saw guts all over the battle fields, which was far more disgusting.

Did you not play any team sports in high school? We all walked around naked in the locker room.

Do you have some phobia of nakedness?

Somewhere, something with you went seriously wrong.  I seriously doubt any of the ancestors you proudly list on your LinkedIn profile would approve of your outlook or behavior.

Are you sure you know what all my ancestors think  Huh

I am glad the morality police are out in full force to do a hatchet job. Keep it up please. It is great for publicity.

Actually, I do have a pretty good idea of what your ancestors thought, because I too am a direct descendant of a Continental Army cavalry officer / state governor / congressman.  As I'm sure you well know, these weren't people who were fond of degenerate behavior.

Then I posit yours are rolling in their graves now with your nonsense in this thread.

Instead of wasting time trolling my balls, you should be trying to fix/improve Synereo or do something worthwhile (such as supporting my project!).

The final tally from our ancestors will come from our actual accomplishments. I'll be happy to compare our respective LinkedIn profiles a couple of years from now.

Now get off my lawn kiddie.

Where is Wario's signature lightning bolts moustache?

Where is Wario's curved eyebrows? Where are Wario's signature teeth?

You now have a "public image", because you posted your crotch on the world wide web.

I have posted many photos of myself other than example medical photos of a medical ailment on the testicles. And those are not my testicles. I found that image from Google search.

Congratulations on being a total pervert.  That's not my opinion either.  It's a fact.

Posting an image of a medical condition (or even a link to a page which shows a medical condition) makes me factually a pervert  Huh

Dude have you entirely lost your mind/rationality.

P.S. if you only had suffered as I have suffered with this medical problem perhaps you would have a little bit more empathy for the fact that I was sharing that as part of a theory about my condition, not only to disclose but also in the chance that someone might have an idea that could help me. For several years, I been trying to solve this mystery illness.

It is my opinion just like it's your opinion that Synereo is based on a flawed model.

I don't hate them, but you are trying to make me hate you. I only shared my feedback on what I think the flaws are. I even commended them on being smart. But I don't condone them preselling unregistered investment securities to non-accredited USA investors. Not only because it is ostensibly illegal, but also because it is not a meritocracy, because due to the P&D expectation, speculators will dump money into just about anything with a good story, regardless if that story has an real fundamental viability and truth to it. If instead, they have to raise money in private placement with accredited investors, they would be held to a higher standard by the investors. Or even in a crowdfund for donations (not selling tradeable tokens), they would need to convince people that they want to donate.

Like people who find it disgusting that you post your genitals online?  I lost all respect for you after that, and I'm seriously questioning your sanity.  Who wants to associate with that type of filth?

Well I didn't post my genitals. I posted medical pictures of an ailment while discussing my medical condition.

But yeah, snotty people who think a photo of a body part is filthy are still suffering from the curse given to Adam & Eve after they ate the forbidden apple (they didn't mind that they were naked until after they committed the first, primordial sin, lol).

Filipinos would just laugh at you for your useless pompous political correctness. What is the utility of that those snotty Americans who think it is their right to tell the rest of the world what is proper manners? Zero.

I am all for useful couth, such as acknowledging the accomplishments of others. I believe in a meritocracy. I have a very low tolerance for useless bullshit.

When my antagonists are reduced to attacking my balls, it appears they have nothing useful to do with their life.

Does that mean I would tell my grandmother, "Hey grandma, look at my balls". Well yes! My family knows I don't really hold back what I think. At times I will realize I better just say nothing because it won't accomplish anything and it will only be acrimonious. But that isn't the case here.

But it doesn't mean I am going to say "gay people are like animals" or what ever Manny Pacquiao recently stated. I would say, "let's end the State's control over marriage in all forms such as taxation, marriage certificates, etc", so then no one has the power to say whether gays can marry or not, nor control the financial and other implications of marriage. Then someone would retort, "who will enforce financial support in the event of divorce?". And I will respond, "no one!". Make a binding contractual agreement if you want one. Don't involve the State in providing a default contract for you. Western boomers would be aghast, yet X-gens know why I advocate that stance.

No "intelligent" person is going to crowdfund someone who posts their genitals on the internet.

That's not true. You obviously don't understand marketing. Getting attention is 90% of the task. TPTB posting his genitals was in the context of his ongoing public disclosure of his illness, so it wasn't exactly a bolt from the blue. It shows me TPTB knows how to play the 'game'

Hahaha. An X-gen version of the boomer Donald Trump frankness of crypto without the boomer-generation totalitarianism of "let me make all the decisions".

As for accomplishing on the technology side, it is irrelevant that I posted a photo of an ailment of the testicles (and obviously not my balls since remember I was username UnunoctiumTesticles at one point).

As for the marketing side, getting enough attention to drive early adoption is important, especially if you can get that advertising for free. Then technological, design choices, and the paradigm of the market matter most.

Also what really matters is being sincerely passionate, bursting with technological & marketing insight (to keep it interesting for the co-workers), being capable (of which repeated instances in past experience can be an indicator), having the correct understanding of economics (including the critical importance of decentralization and the End-to-End Principle), and also actually being a jovial person to work with. Forum appearances notwithstanding. Then again, there are probably certain attitudes that would not find chemistry with me. Start with someone who has any socialist leanings, love of government planned programs, and especially believes in crap such as man-made global warming, "save the earth", or other delusional nonsense that has become the rage lately. Again I have looked at the facts on these issues. I am an advocate for not polluting my local surroundings, and for not dumping my pollution on others. But I think it is ridiculous the hair-brained propaganda that humans affect the global temperature. When I drive my SUV, I participate in the natural Carbon Cycle of the earth.

Spoetnik, it is too late for me. I can never become anonymous again. If ever I earn a lot of money, my life will be somewhat destroyed as it is improved. It would be best for me to not earn too much money. Too much money makes you a target for the rest of your life. What I'd probably do if ever I have too much money, is start giving it away to projects I believe in. On the simplification on the communication side, this is sometimes very difficult to accomplish. It consumes times and effort. For some polished documents, it is worthwhile. My knowledge of "moon math" is not as high as other experts in crypto, but it is sufficient for my role. All major crypto projects hire a mathematician/cryptographer specialist. Note I could likely have become a mathematician, but my other interests and priorities interfered with that focus. I am not a polymath genius as in a Leonardo Da Vinci, Shakespeare, or Galileo. I am more at the level of a Mark Twain or George Washington. I just have a passion for what I like to do, and I like to juggle conceptual paradigms.
