JJG in the Top 10

Demanding a word count.

That report is probably ordered and paid for by some gun hating left wing group who would clutch at any straw to make gun ownership look bad.
I don't have the time to dig for the reports I'm referring to, but you all know that they are out there.

And what's "A major global report" anyway, how does it differ from "a minor local report".

The paper appears to have been published in JAMA, Journal of the American Medical Association.
https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2698492

JAMA currently has an Impact Factor of 51.3 (whoah!). For comparison, Science is 40, and Nature is 43. In order to maintain that kind of factor they have to publish pretty well peer-reviewed stuff.

So please stop it with the "you all know that they are out there" and either post peer reviewed facts or concede. Reality exists man, I really recommend living by it even when it is at odds with your person opinions/beliefs (as I did with the whole 140mph being safe thing).

(Note: A totally fair argument would be "I don't give a fuck if people die, I want my guns!". Use that instead if that's what you really mean)

A major global report confirms gun-related homicides, suicides and accidents are falling in Australia after the introduction of anti-gun laws, and that the effect of such tough laws is similar elsewhere.

No I will not read and respond to the report, it takes to long and isn't relevant to the Bolsonaro thing.
It's a trick old as the hills, you throw a report (that you usually haven't read yourself and) out there for your opponents to read hoping they will just throw in the towel.
And the fact that it is published in a reputable magazine, does not mean that it isn't biased.

I will respond to the headline though.
What are they  saying with their report? basically, they are just stating the obvious, People without guns don't commit suicide with guns. Is that even in dispute? The real question is, does it matter? did suicides go down? or did people go on committing suicide with other means? I think you know the answer. People without guns don't have have accidents with guns, again quite a nobrainer, if you own something that you can have an accident with some people are going to have accidents, if that is a knife, car, gun, or anything else really doesn't matter. Accidents happen, what's their point?
And lastly, gun related homicides fell, again, yes so what? that's to be expected, but did homicides fall? or did people just switch weapons? I'm guessing the latter. They just don't like guns and are a using science paper to scare people by stating the obvious.

Now, on Bolsonaros relaxation of gun laws, his point is that if good citizens have the ability to shoot the bad guys, the bad guys will think twice before trying to rob someone, in the beginning that might very well lead to more gun deaths, as the bad guys are being culled, but that's not a bad thing, it's just according to plan.

Design for a CoinSwap Implementation for Massively Improving Bitcoin Privacy and Fungibility

https://gist.github.com/chris-belcher/9144bd57a91c194e332fb5ca371d0964

[...] Imagine a future where a user Alice has bitcoins and wants to send them with maximal privacy, so she creates a special kind of transaction. For anyone looking at the blockchain her transaction appears completely normal with her coins seemingly going from address A to address B. But in reality her coins end up in address Z which is entirely unconnected to either A or B.

How come i get so confused about those github posts?  I was trying to figure out when the post was posted or if it was edited, and I cannot see that information.  Is there a way to see the dates of posts?  I am not a member on github.  Would I see that information if I were a member?

I looked too at first, but couldn't see. I just presumed our bitebits would be on the ball as ever with new stuff.

Anyway since then I've seen ... https://tftc.io/martys-bent/issue-745/ and https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2020-May/017898.html ...
... point to it being fresh meat.

By the way, my 20k^-th post, here... I will take a few hours break from posting to reminisce - also, note that I seem to be catching up to ChartBuddy.  Just another 1,804 more posts, and ChartBuddy and me will be "even Steven," absent Richie_T firing ChartBuddy back up, just to spite me (trying some reverse psychology, here.. Don't tell Richie_T).

Actually I did drop down to your TLDR and have no qualms about that so left it at that.

Congrats on your New title!

I thought I was posting too much with 10k.

When you get there though you will have to come to terms with the fact there are 2 names on there that are actually one. :EEK:

Great story and what remains to be seen ...

This guy I read from time to time, he tends to have a favorable approach to bitcoin and appears to be one of the few that believes it has intrinsic value. His viewpoint of bitcoin being like owning shares in a company will probably appeal to other traditional investors more than here but is interesting nonetheless.

https://seekingalpha.com/article/4350098-bitcoin-qe-unlimited-and-next-wave-higher

These are unique enterprises built upon extremely capable blockchains, coupled with their own digital coins, and deep infrastructure projects. Right now, the industry appears to be notably underappreciated, and its future potential may be drastically underestimated by many.

Moreover, consider the trillions of dollars floating around looking for a place to park to get positive yield in this financial environment. Due to inflation resistance and future potential, I believe a prime place for future investment will likely be the digital asset segment. There is a lot of uncertainty concerning equities going forward, gold/GSMs are doing great, but in the intermediate term, there are not that many bright spots in the market. Furthermore, the Wuhan virus will likely continue to weigh on international confidence and consumption for many months. While it may take some time for inflation to filter through to the real economy, once it does, prices for various assets, including Bitcoin, should go substantially higher.

Yes, those stats would be interesting to see. I bet JJG would crush all competition.

Admittedly, I skip reading some of his most lengthy posts, as I'm just skimming through the new posts quickly due to lack of time.

Anyway, my (hopefully in a near future) hat off to you JJG. You are a great contributor to the forum in general and the WO-thread in particular.

So, I got a letter in my mailbox, handwritten, no stamp, obviously delivered by hand, from someone called Mona.
I open it and it starts "My name is Mona, I'm one of Jehovas witnesses in Malmö.
Considering the current situation I choose to write to you instead of visiting you in person..."

Bloody hel, even Jehovas is doing social distancing.

Even though you (and me as well) doesn't always agree with him on a personal level and on non-bitcoin related issues doesn't take away his contribution to this thread. He is a bitcoin maximalist and often takes time to answer and help newcomers. His dedication deserves some credits, imho.

[Arriemoller]

His personality is way too abrasive for me, I have him on ignore.

[Arriemoller]

Oh, and I had cannelloni again, and guess what, it's still just rolled up lasagna.

Same here at my parents, came handwritten but unlike at you it came by postal mail.
Just glanced over it, but these sentences sound familiar.

Must be a worldwide Jehova-OP, these guys know how to grow their herd of (paying) sheep.

I was going to keep this between me and the client who commissioned it but it looks like you're cracking up so you need something to give you some strength.

My client requested a portrait of his dream Bitcoin developer and here it is.



I'm probably going to jail for breaking a NDA but if it gets you through the night it was worth it.
