Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[xyzzy099]

By any rational standard, an organism that is incapable of reproducing has failed natural selection and is a genetic error.

I think maybe your understanding of genetics is overly simplistic.  How do you think hyper-social species like ants and bees have evolved?  Most individuals in these species are not directly involved in reproduction at all.

Blockchain is not the future. Blocktree is.

It's not possible to create a decentralized digital currency.  They're all Rube Goldberg machines designed to centralize that the state will then co-opt and use to empower themselves to try and reduce monetary freedom, increase tracking, and eliminate cash.  All digital currency is garbage.  They are not "money", they're IOUs you hope someone will make good on.  The only place wealth can be stored is in the physical world, whether it's gold, silver, oil, wheat, land, or what have you.  Most physical goods make poor forms of money, so everything usually always falls back to the noble metals (gold and silver) in the end.

hashgraph

Hashgraph is an interesting consensus protocol that has been shown to yield high throughput in a private and static setting. Hashgraph is fast, fair, and secure within the permissioned setting it currently operates in. However, if and when used in a public setting, Hashgraph will face the same issues that other public blockchains are facing today and may not be able to maintain its security and performance.

roach my comment was about the best data structure to run a digital currency. Whether it is centralized or decentralized is irrelevant. There is still an interest by banks in digital currencies even without decentralization - look at ripple.

[the artful bodger]

At exactly midnight china time there was that pump up above $14000. It was probably due to the Chinese making New Year's resolutions to buy bitcoin.

[TERA2]

and ripple too?

Fuck John Stuart Mill. Fuck Bertrand Russell. Fuck me. Bow down before the cranky old fuss-pots with all the guns. Fuck everything on general principle.

HAPPY BULLISH NEWYEAR      AND GOOD LUCK

[Rosewater Foundation]

Fuck games.

[bones261]

By any rational standard, an organism that is incapable of reproducing has failed natural selection and is a genetic error...  

I would invite you to look into research on homosexuality in simian populations - the non-reproducing members contribute to the group in other ways, such as helping raise the young within the tribe, and resource gathering.

things like "SJW-ism" and liberalism - cancer cells attempting to attack the functional cells.

No argument with you there. Fuck everything about SJW-ism and liberalism.

I'm not even convinced that being gay or lesbian is genetic destiny. There have been studies with identical twins, and the correlation is far from the 100% expected if it were entirely genetic. This suggests that there are environment factors at work. Even if there were genes that increase the likelihood someone will turn out homosexual, this isn't necessarily an "error." The exact same genes could also enhance a person's ability to pass on the genes to the next generation,  either through a survival advantage or making them more attractive to the opposite sex.

oh now you hadda make me google that, eh?...
...ah ok,  stupid frikkin me..I shoulda known. I guess my interwebz acronym literacy is sadly lacking...

Hello sirazimuth?

Are you for real? 

You know that if you want to be "woke" to these kinds of terms, you gotta consume a bit more internet porn.  We are no longer in the 90s.


 

we're not in the nineties anymore?
oh shit, no wonder the dial up prodigy internet service on my netscape browser
is so slow. Guess I'll upgrade so I can get all those cool acronyms and porn.
Jeezus, I'm so behind the times....

I thought homosexuality was epigenetic or something that happened while you were in the womb.

Neither BobLawblaw or I are in the closet.    However, throughout human history, many were. Most of these closeted individuals ended up getting married to the opposite sex and having offspring. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the reproductive systems of most gay and lesbian people. In fact, even in today's Western cultures, where the taboo of homosexual relations is beginning to wane, homosexuals are still reproducing offspring. Reproductive technology and alternative arrangements are being actively utilized.

I dont like this latest daily candle for bears. It could mean we're going back up or that we need to bounce off of 16k again.

That doesn't really counter my original point that if the super gay monkeys are not passing on their genetic material, in terms of evolution, everything they do in life is kind of null and void since they are not passing on those traits. It's not an insult to any particular group since it affects everyone, but if you are not passing on any genetic traits, you're a one-off or "error" in other words.  Humans are biologically K-selection apex predators, so the idea that they would purposelly invest massive time and resources on evolutionary dead ends is obviously invalid.

Things like lesbians have to be genetic errors in K-selection in other words.  They would go extinct overnight if lesbianism was not considered an error in K-selection.  Things like lesbianism can only exist or thrive in R-selection populations.  In K-selection, nobody can be dead weight.  In terms of genetic evolution, non-reproducing K-selection members are either errors, dead weight, or have failed the natural selection process from some other deficiency.  K-selection groups do not produce disposable cannon fodder worker ants, that's the definition of R-selection.

You could also make the case that some groups of humans actually do operate in R-selection mode by looking at birth rates of places like Africa, India, Mexico, etc.  If left unchecked, they will eventually flood into the K-selection territories, overwhelm their land and resources, and cause the K-selection groups to go extinct unless they wage war against them or build a wall around them.  Until Trump was elected, the entire political climate was K-selection Jews waging war against other K-selection groups like whites through subterfuge.  Now it has shifted to building a wall around R-selection populations which is the most humane solution in reality unless the R's want to die instead.
