I really love all of the things that I can do with my smartphone these days that I'd never have been able to do with an older device (trying to even browse the Internet on a phone that I owned as recently as five years…
But ~$89,000 isn't six figures, so...? Also, I suppose it depends on the source and relevant area covered by the statistic. I've heard other (lower) figures elsewhere.

Personally, I'd really not like to see a precedent set for a company entering a market, doing very well, and then being legally compelled to provide their product as some sort of legal right to an entire population. It…
Appealing to authority is not always fallacious.
As it should be! The ubiquity of the "funny == upvote" mentality is rather depressing, and I'm glad that HN (generally) tries to avoid that. It makes the comments section a much more interesting place to be (to me, at…
I'd imagine just about anything that exists in any capacity can be tied to the physical in some way. I think that in this context, "tangible" means more than that.
What are your means? What is "quite well"?
How is that? Again, I don't really mean to press you too far with the questions, I'm just a young guy who hears $110,000 and thinks "gee, that's a lot of money".
RES uses infinite scrolling of some sort, yes.
Do you mind providing me with some examples of civilized honor killings?
If you're avoiding press for security reasons, you may be doing it wrong.
That's a million wallets that can instantly, pseudonymously send money to some random dude halfway around the world.
I agree completely. I think a lot of people will look at the things that I say and call me an asshole for saying them, but I really think that's true. If people don't take a stand against this sort of shit, it will…

And if I were a career criminal, I'd probably have a pretty low opinion of the justice system (actual problems with said justice system aside). My point? It's hard to be reasonable about things when you're coming at…
Maybe you've been whooshed?

Getting rid of something is not necessarily the same thing as proposing an alternative that may provide new benefits.
I didn't necessarily, it's just a precaution. I see a lot of vitriol directed at Bitcoin, and this sort of extremist overcompensation is really nothing new anyway. It's just a reminder to stay rational.
I suppose that depends on how you define "important". We're pretty important to ourselves, I suppose.
Not yet (and because some people around here seem to be softer than melted butter, that's not a threat). Now I'm usually a pretty cold-hearted bastard, and I'll admit that I had very little stake in MtGox (I never…
