As someone allergic to dogs I was wondering exactly the same thing. I assume this simply makes it impossible to work there if you have a dog allergy since (even with an isolated office) any contact wi…

For me, the biggest shock is that Shrem is on the board of the Bitcoin Foundation and was involved in this stuff. The Bitcoin foundation is one of the strongest voices in Washington about Bitcoin. Thi…

I'd disagree that security == transparency. You can not have security without transparency, but you can certainly have transparency without security. As for the idea that they are "phishing …

No mention of the thing being completely open sourced - or did I overlook something? If not, seems like something they should mention (I am assuming it IS open source?)...

I have been part of the interviewing process at our company for a few years now and it still blows me away how the majority(!) of applicants just flunk a simple FizzBuzz type test. Why in the world ar…

Use Electrum as your Bitcoin client. Doesn't need to sync entire blockchains, it's super-fast and also can generate a wallet based on a passphrase so you can recover a wallet if your hard dr…

Wow, this is just amazingly helpful. Thanks a ton! SWF format would also be helpful for me personally at least. A couple of questions: * I assume you'd be fine with me putting these up on Github,…

"You can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem." https:…

Wow, thank you SO much for sharing these numbers. It seems to me a huge part of your success was due to you picking a niche (Montessori) with weak(ish) competition and making a high-quality product in…

don't know anything about fallout coming to mobile (though you'd think it'd just be a matter of time), but baldur's gate is already out on ipad and baldur's gate ii is coming …

Pro-suicide is tame compared to many of the subreddits out there. If you're curious, do NOT click the links in this collection but rather read the reactions of people who did. (I am serious). ht…

We crossed the line of "real life satire" a long time ago, at this point any new revelation seems to be unnecessary: at this point, it's obvious the NSA needs a hard reboot. That there …

This is one of those articles where I more or less agree with the author's content but absolutely detest the tone and style in which he makes his point. He could have easily made the same point w…

Here's what I would love to see some day and am quite sure I don't (yet) have the clout to pull off myself: A recommendation engine which points me to articles espousing opposite views to my…

Shamir's paper was a very cautiously formulated guess at a connection he thought he had made. It was anything but a legal argument that would hold any water in court. This blog post is pure FUD n…
