    "Seems to completely work around the reasons why Bitcoin etc. were interesting in the first place as a technology." I respectfully disagree. The original goal of Bitcoin was to cre…

    I've been piloting this program and I've got to say it's been a convenient way to pay without draining my real bank account. IMO this is a killer product compared to everything els…

    This is flat out not true. FB doesn't employ 10s of thousands of human moderators. According to a 3-month old article, $FB supposedly employs 7,500 moderators [0], though it's uncl…

    Maybe blown away by wind and / or burned dry by the summer heat. You seem out of touch with reality (I intend this in the gentlest way possible).
