It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Well, people who are clueless enough to rely on such a guide should suffer anyway... And sociopaths never apologize? Give me a break...

It's fun to troll sociopaths with giving them false hope that they've got you in their grips. They get so mad.

Nice read, bookmarked. ' You can continue your study here.
(however carismatic speculative and attention seeking I unfold myself on this forum, I never get any +1, but wait, that's proof of my mental health?)

Give me a break... madeline albright never apologized for killing 700.00 Iraqi children. It was a cost that was worth to pay for the " freedom " of Iraq. We're talking full Blown psychos. .

The most important thing is that sociopaths do not "feel" remorse and cannot sympathize with the emotions of others. That makes them more likely to act without consideration for others. It does not mean they are necessarily dangerous, but seeing someone in emotional pain will not be a factor in their decisions.

You can be sure that a sociopath will apologize if and when it is for his/her best interest. You are all making arguments out of emotion. One does not need to be a sociopath to do deeds that are deemed bad by you. People you refer to likely would not be categorized as sociopaths. Neither the fact that someone can be categorized that way means they will be harmful to you or your values. This is a meaningless and harmful fad invented for weak people to feel special.

That control freaks, different kettle of mad frogs altogether. This paper gives a good example of their thought process, your either with us of mentally unstable: http://www.cicc.org/pdf/TRAPWIRE_Whitepaper_generic.pdfWell i think she would still fall under a sociopath ( or *psychopath* . I couldn't really find a difference) But how does the paper relate to that. I didn't get it?

->"The most important thing is that sociopaths do not "feel" remorse and cannot sympathize with the emotions of others."
I'm pretty sure that they are "wired" the same way as us and feel remorse, maybe very seldom compared to the average guy, and would never verbalize it to them self or others, that they had done someone wrong.
From personal experience I have known people that have had a bad experience in their past, either violence or abuse from childhood or in a relationship. It's like a blanked out hole in their history when you get to know them. They seldom mention this episode and only superficially, but the effect on them is always visible under the surface when you know them. Being close to such a person can be hard, as you never know them truely. They often feel that they have to cling to the little piece of unblemished self they have left and are convinced that no one would be able to like or love them if anybody really knew how dark and scared of loosing their reality they really are. You knowing about their secret will ultimately make them brake the relation as you become the personification of their hurt.
So when ever I run into one who is more show and charm than logic and coherency in arguments, I always feel a little sad about them and often you can see the fear in their eyes when they discoveres that you have blown their cover when you is not caught up in their self fantasy! It's a bummer if such a guy is your boss as you will get fired a few days after such a moment of truth.
If the sociopath is an attractive woman you are doomed, even if you know what you are getting into, Being the single follower of such a love cult will chew you up in all ways imaginable. However next time such a woman crosses your path, you will jump right in again.

According to science psychopaths have a different brain. Obviously nurture (vs. nature) has a big influence on how an individual with such a brain develops. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vx8RxRn6dWU

My bad, I linked the wrong one. Another goes into more details about that system and the profiling methods used. I'll try and dig out a link as I don't have it saved, it identifies individuals, keeps track of them and looks for unusual behavior. A private company run by ex-spooks networking reports and security cameras together to run a database of individuals might not be the best folks to decide what counts as normal behavior, especially when they describe anyone that doesn't fit within those patterns as mentally unbalanced. EDIT: Think it was in this: http://www.amazon.com/How-Look-Trouble-Protective-Intelligence/dp/1451528205 Right. Got cha.

sociopath is a very bad term for this because it can either describe full blown anti- or dissocial personality disorder or just people who dont feel empathy. the ladder might be 4% of the population. but even from the former most arent the extremes the article describes. most are either just socially ackward or garden-variety assholes, not master manipulators.

No, Atlas isn't any sort of -path. He is, perhaps, a little manic-depressive, possibly a bit passive-aggressive, and definitely somewhat confused, but not a sociopath.
