can you guys f***ing tell me what about you're talking??  

Someone (I forgot who) made some post about there being no absolute truths or somesusch.  I object to this as I think it a cover for all sorts of bad behaviours like “alternative facts” so challenged on the basis that 2+2 always = 4.  

Of course I don’t know any higher order mathematics so was quickly proved wrong.  Now I am trying to understand why I was wrong.  

Some Mathematicians will disagree, but alas. Proof is anything you accept as such, usually whatever is sufficient for you to follow the argument to the end.

Discrete mathematics, second or third semester of computer science

Linear algebra, in this case group and field theory. First semester of Mathematics and Physics, sometimes CS as well if you go the Math route. Not necessarily discrete.

It's funny how many different perspectives and approaches even on something as well defined as fields there are.


This wasn't about the Math as much as it was about disputing the existence of absolute/objective truth. Truth depends on perspective, which depends on your assumptions, which depend on your past experiences of life.

is Bitcoin done or are our expectations too high? do we need more patience?

Maybe the bogus propaganda of trying to portray bitcoins in every single picture as physical gold coins finally failed and wore off.

You, good sir or madam, are a liar. I never said any such thing.

Sounded like it though to be honest.

I believe I can see where you're coming from, and can see some sense in it if I'm correct. But even then, your method of delivery probably fuels the fire more than it helps put it out.


If Muslims publicly spoke out against the problematic aspects of Islam and terrorism and publicly sought reform on a global scale, would you redact or amend your statement that Muslims are not innocent?

Sure, to people who project their own dark sides a lot. Which is again a primarily low-amygdala trait, or leftie trait. You'll notice you and I didn't get in a spat over it, for example?

My delivery is intentional. People get all kinds of honest when they get riled up. Quickly identifies who is worth my time.

Muslims as a whole will not do that. They would no longer be Muslim. It goes directly against the core of their faith.

If the most prominent Imams led the way to reform most Muslims would follow. Extremism will remain, but slowly dwindle out as it would appear increasingly retarded to throw your life away. Especially when God is all powerful anyways. Why would you harm God's creation if you honour him? And why would God need the help of us foolish mortals?

Also, even people who can't or do not want to debate unpleasant topics as these are worth the time. You can learn how to more efficiently communicate to them, e.g. in a way that gets them to understand your position. At the same time you slowly learn to understand theirs better. The more people try the quicker we'll converge to the sensible middle ground and the lower the chances of a shitstorm become.

Ah. It was hidden, fair enough. Yet with zero comments. Why do you suppose that is?

A wise man once said, "If you can't argue the facts, argue the number of comments on a website."

Why don't you wanna jog your noggin on that particular question? The article is six years old. Other articles have exactly zero comments as well. Surely there must be some kind of reason for it? What could it possibly be?

Let's put it that way:

I don't like Islam. I don't want to be associated with Islam neither. I never went to a Mosque. Never Prayed, never did one religious ritual.

As much as I don't like Islam, I also don't like Christianity or Judaism. Any extremists from any of these religions (actually all religions) are the people I don't want to be near of.

Ibian has the right to stay away from the Muslims. He may not like them. He can do those.

But while he is doing that, he also says anything the Christians did in the past was right because it was always the other side who provocated his side.

That's not a healthy way to think imo.

I agree with that. I don't think you have any right to complain about Muslims raping if you condone Christians raping, for whatever reasons. Given the Islamic conquest of the past I may be able to defend the Crusades as a an offensive defense tactic (again I don't know enough about this to talk with any authority). But as soon as you justify rape and torture in the process of your defense you've forfeited the right to stigmatize your opponent, as you become identical.

That said, in some cases demonizing a group of people associated with a type of behaviour could help them wake up and fix the problems within their community. So I'm a bit on the fence about what I should think about Ibian's remarks. I don't know what his intent is when making such.

Right now most people are still scared, otherwise the market would've heated up significantly.

I would say no.  Zero people in this thread are currently scared their BTC "investment" could evaporate and leave them holding the bag.  They're all currently "HODLing" looking to dump on whatever whale manipulator is dumb enough to try and manipulate it higher.  In such situations where everyone is holding and looking to dump on whoever raises it, the only real way it can go up is if it's a govt created scam to try and distract people away from physical metals and the ESF just sets money on fire to rig the price up and accomplish that task.  Or if the manipulator himself has far more coins than the peons looking to dump on him.

Big if, I know. But virtually nobody even seems to be making the argument. I've only really seen people who completely demonize the entire Muslim population and people who are completely ignoring any problems associated and indirectly defending them with "not all Muslims" type arguments.

Neither seems to converge towards a sensible solution that doesn't require war or complete separation of populations.

This thread is heavily biased towards die hard Bitcoiners. Terrible sample to base your conclusions on. I regularly check out shitcoiner places, and they're freaking out en masse on a daily basis.


Either way, regardless of your belief, Bitcoin won't go away. It's too efficient compared to legacy finance. So even if it was a scam, legacy finance will be displaced by it. Not sure what your financial goals are, but I'd just skim what I can regardless of my beliefs and then use the gains for whatever I deem valuable.

It really is disappointing reading dumb racist shit on a BTC forum. The contrast between such brilliant technology built to cross over and even tear down boundaries on the one side, and the small mindedness on the other is just shockingly large. How these people can entertain both realities is a mystery to me. Get the fuck out of your basements and go out and meet people you ignorant racist fucks!

[Syke]

Why don't you wanna jog your noggin on that particular question?

Because it's a ridiculous claim that the number of comments on a website is in some way indicative of quality. But hey, I'll humor you. Where's your proof of this correlation?

[zhekinsp]

Any stats on this? Except the news from media..!

So if FBI says,you all are going to trust them?

ISIS comes from where,a part of American secret society I guess.

At least Adam used to delete Roach when he got too out of hand, for some reason infofront is providing a platform for them

Infofront's got more of a life probably, just that. Often busy with his day job and always with his newborn. Personally speaking, I like his relaxed style. He does have a go at cleaning up once in a while. I agree roach and others are a nuisance with their slavering rants, so when things become uncomfortable we have that useful ignore button.

Very well said.

Even if I am not completely free of some prejudices (anyone is?) this is getting too far already. In any case, this is NOT the place for that shit.

Again, I would say this is totally false as well.  In this forum and every other forum I've seen, the general spam is all "if you buy just 1 bitcoin and HODL you will be a trillionaire".  If you look at any type of web crawler metrics, bitcoin is most popular in the most asinine of places like "incel" forums.  That's all they talk about.  Their general mantra is make believing you can erase 20 years of bad life choices simply by buying some shitcoins.  It's hilarious.  All of this nonsense is based on desperation.

Instead of the smart guys in the room buying low and dumping on the general public, most of these shitcoiners make believe THEY'RE the smart guys in the room (Micgoossens) and will somehow be able to dump on the actual smart guys.  There are so many complete fools and fly by night scammers in craptocurrency that have somehow been able to make profits dumping on some amorphous sky entity that just should not be there to dump on, that anyone with a rational brain at all has had to of questioned just who/what is propping this market up.  

*Cough* a single entity operating on the fraudulent exchange Bitfinex (either Bitmain, Bitfinex owners, TBTF banks, or the ESF) manipulating it all the way from $200 to $20,000 with tethers and other fraud.

There may be a factor that is not as commonly known as I thought it should be.

In order to fight a war, you have to demonize the Other. You have to make them Not Human. That's why we give nicknames to other groups of people. Krauts, slant eyes, chinks. Musselmen, sand niggers.

I know an afghan vet, went to school with him long ago. He told me that they call the locals "jallas" cause they yell jalla jalla jalla when they attack. It's a basic psychological principle and we do it automatically.

Why do we do it? Because otherwise we are the ones who end up dead instead of them.

We are at war. That's what terror attacks are, they are acts of war. And as long as we keep pretending that they are Just Like Us, they will keep killing us and we will keep doing nothing. It is literally a matter of survival.
