I was under the impression that a judge could only pierce the corporate veil if I violate some sort of rule with regards to the LLC; i.e. withdraw / deposit company funds in my name or something like that.

Yeah, but Bitcoin's price is not based purely on logic. It is also based on emotion.

Wait, really? I was under the impression that a college degree for programmers is less important nowadays.

It is impossible to definitively give a reason as to why something as uncontrollable as Bitcoin changes in price.

But yeah, probably.

I grew up in Sunnyvale.

A lot of my friends from high school have part-time jobs / intern over the summer at the startups/companies from where around I used to live...

But I don't live there anymore. And I'm kind of hesitant to move back to Sunnyvale (It is the most boring, soul-sucking place on earth) so I guess that doesn't really count for anything.

Meh.

As a 19 year old programmer who just dropped out, this eases my anxiety. A lot.

Have you checked to see if they're on http://what.cd already? It's the de-facto bittorrent tracker for music. It is possible that many of those clips you have are already on there.

And if not, you could seed them yourself :D

Please, someone, get this trash off of the front page. Not only is this entire article completely content-less, but the number of fallacies in it is palpable.

I wasn't going to waste my time on this, but after skimming for 20 seconds I came to this:

> In many ways, Litecoin is looking like a better investment. For Litecoin it is still early days because the infrastructure is not quite there. However, it looks to be a more promising currency from the technical standpoint, e.g., allowing faster transactions and a longer time until the end of the mining cycle.

Faster confirmations DON'T MEAN SHIT. Just because it takes 2.5 minutes for a Litecoin confirmation doesn't mean it is any better. Yeah, a Litecoin confirmation is 4x faster than a Bitcoin confirmation, but all that means is that a Litecoin confirmation is 1/4 as secure as a Bitcoin confirmation. Which is actually worse, when you think about it because the blockchain is more bloated.

>Its current market capitalization is $215 million, giving a factor of 45 potential growth to simply catch up with Bitcoin.

Are you fucking serious?

Anyone have a mirror for the video?

Wow, that's kind of funny, because I didn't even notice that was gone until you mentioned it. I guess I was so used to it that I tuned it out.

Living in the Silicon Valley after reading this article might sound awesome; but it's far from the truth.

I grew up there. I feel like I was deprived of a childhood. I moved away a couple of years ago and am never going back. You have nothing but sprawled out office parks, rich internet tycoons, a police force with nothing to do, helicopter parents, and soccer moms. The thing that topped it all off was the super competitive vibe amongst the peers and parents. I would not recommend living there under any circumstances.

But you're winocm. You're famous, dude. Just show a link to your github page / contributions to the iOS jailbreak community and I'm sure you'd get a fat scholarship.

But then again, how can I say something like that when I dropped out of school myself? :P

I'm starting to get sick of these Bitcoin posts.

I used it to donate to What.CD and buy a Namecheap domain.

Since you said <100 BTC and not <10 BTC I'm gonna assume you have at least 10.

Which is a lot.

Hey, didn't you post in the Hackers@Berkeley Facebook group earlier today,

Fine, you are correct. I didn't think you were nitpicking my choice of words.

They should be worthless.

People only pay for them because they don't have any other choice. If it was legal to sponsor an Android fork that had a pirate version of the Play Store, I'm sure all of the hardware manufacturers would be shipping it with their phones.

Blame the piracy laws. These games are, of course, inherently worthless but the current policies are propping them up when innovation should be in other places.
