Miners occupy a powerful and yet somewhat isolated portion of rapidly evolving bitcoin ecosystem.

For many people in the Bitcoin ecosystem, making the technology successful is about more than personal enrichment. A lot of folks see Bitcoin specifically (because of its present success) holding the potential for big changes in a shorter period of time.

The people I've spoken with don't mince words: in general serious miners compete against others to make money, not societal change.

Nah, you're absolutely correct. And in fact, it's crazy because one single song can have 3 writers, 8 performers, a record label, 2 publishers and two different performance rights organizations all with a stake in that track. But, we paid standard rates to publishers and only needed to convince the owners of the master recording to license the music to us, which is usually a label or band. Then we had listeners. We were mostly just trying to please those two groups, but that's because we paid the publishers outright.
moreover, those attributes can serve as proxy measures for others.

In economics, the term "needs" generally means very close to want "wants" means in general conversation, and probably not at all what you mean by "needs". (Its not as odd as it sounds, since "needs" actually is meaningless without reference to a purpose, and in economics the relevant purpose is approximately "to acheive a state in which no greater satisfaction is possible" -- often, in general conversation, the purpose for which "needs" are identified is unspecified and not all clear, making the meaning of any claim about needs highly ambiguous.)

This is a very nice article. I've learned to be leery of articles full of cutesy graphics. But I guess that's largely due to the problem this article is trying to combat: most graphics are worthless.

So: he has a number of worthwhile points, each is clearly explained and concisely illustrated. There is plenty of white space, and no dancing ads or you-didn't-really-want-to-read-this-did-you nonsense. And when he gets his points across, he ends; my time is not wasted.

The title isn't right, though. He is talking about reasons that many charts & graphs are ineffective. Although I suppose "look like crap" will probably get him more readers.

What really needs to happen is that common graphing/charting tools need to incorporate ideas like these into their default settings.

First , the problem is that this won't happen in an utopian world, this will happen in our materialistic world.

We're quite far from that utopian world.That will take long political struggle. My guess is that when we're there , machines will probably surpass humans even in the arts.

Even if not,as far as i know ,the "youtube economy" i.e. people who earn full time salary on you tube is quite small. So i'm a bit pessimistic about it filling the economy.

A Loaded deck alone would cost that much. Yeah it is pretty expensive. But factoring in parking costs, taxi costs, muni costs, time, etc it's definitely worth it.

Perhaps the price will come down with time, but as of now I think demand is well exceeding supply.

Ogilvy and Mather steals from artist, deletes tweet after getting caught
In particular, if emin-gun-sirer had gotten his 2013-Nov-03 prediction right, and that was a good time to sell your Bitcoins, don't you think he'd be shouting it from the rooftops, ever since?

He took a gamble: that the bold tweeted prediction would increase attention for his paper (which it did), and then come true, improving his credibility about such matters (which it didn't).

He's now saying "I told you so", literally, in a gambit for more credibility – but eliding mention of his prior bad predictions. (In addition to the "good time to sell" prediction, I would point out that (a) orphan rates since his paper was published have not shown the predicted wide self-interested adoption of "selfish mining"; (b) the pool that's achieved 51% does not appear to have used "selfish mining" to get there - just the same economies-of-scale and small-miner-superstitions that have been known threats since the beginning of pooled-mining. In other words, even if this is a disaster, it's not the same one, by the same path, as he predicted – but an older potential doom, prophesied by others long before his work.)

When facing such a claim of earned authority, it's entirely appropriate, and not at all ad hominem, to highlight the full record. To "shout from the rooftops" exactly the same early calls he himself would be bragging about – if he'd been right.

It will go a long way to have more people like Sam say "it's okay to talk."

It's not like people have to open their souls on their blogs.

But when high profile individuals like Sam "proclaim" that it's okay to talk about this, somehow it feels a lot safer to open up to people in person.

Especially if they're in a similar situation.
Makes logical sense, unfortunately we've seen examples in the past of this logic not being adhered to. Take the poker site "Ultimate Bet", when cheating was suspected the line of reasoning against it (and the strongest line of reasoning at that)was "Why would they cheat when they are running a million dollar profitable business and jeopardise the entire operation for a bit more %?" Turns out they were willing to jeopardise it all.

Partly because the robots we're talking about here don't necessarily have to be of the humanoid/strong AI type.

Bear in mind that rug weaving was considered too complex and intricate to be automated, until it was. Also bear in mind that humans used to build cars in factories, now robots do, and that the very term "computer" used to refer to something a human being did, rather than a machine.

The complexity of the necessary systems don't need to appear all at once, but can be built on top of, and feed off of, one another. You replace jobs piecemeal -- first the simple labor-intensive jobs, then complex manufacturing, then automate logistics. At some point, autonomous cars are delivering goods manufactured entirely by robots on behalf of autonomous corporations.

Eventually, as technology and AI improves, you could have creative works done entirely by machines, or almost entirely. Movies written, directed by, starring, composed, engineered and distributed entirely by AI, with books and music and toys and everything.

There's no evidence that it's too difficult, but plenty of evidence of things once considered impossible, which turn out now to be commonplace, or taken for granted.

"Even if not,as far as i know ,the "youtube economy" i.e. people who earn full time salary on you tube is quite small. So i'm a bit pessimistic about it filling the economy."

The point is that money making projects will be so rare, that people would have no choice but to put money into projects that have the remotest chance making money. Funds will fund millions/billions of projects on the basis of finding one superstar project. They would diversified on a massive scale. This would be better than letting money flounder.

That or a kickstarter model where people simply give money to projects that interests them.
> Why would GHash ever want to attack the platform from which it profits and from which it will likely continue to profit, as a leading transaction processor, for many years to come?

There's pretty much an infinite number of reasons people choose short-term profit with apparent long-term opportunity cost above what apparently stable long-term profit streams. Betting that an actor with the power to do so would never do so usually is equivalent to creating a greater incentive for them to do so.
Destroying resources just because criminal touched them seems pointless. Removing financial incentive for abuse seems reasonable, but that does not mean resources should be destroyed.

> In the end 95% of the population will be cutting each others' hair and saying nice things to each other for money. With the most detail and attention dedicated to the 5% that actually does useful stuff, then trickling down.

Your claim here is based on the utterly false dichotomy that says that helping someone's self image (cutting their hair) and improving their emotional state (saying nice things to them) are not useful.

These things are all useful, it's just that the ones you decry are higher up on Maslow's hierarchy of needs. That's a good sign: it means that our lower needs are already being met so we can focus on higher desires and aspirations.

Personally, a world where most people spend their "work" helping other actualize themselves instead of scraping rocks out of mines or digging up food and barely subsisting sounds like a pretty good improvement to me.

> The two great expanding economic sectors of the future I foresee is conspicuous consumption (luxury cars, clothes)

As prices tend towards zero, it's no longer conspicuous consumption. The whole point of conspicuous consumption is to show your wealth by throwing it away. You can't be a conspicuous consumer of Taco Bell, and if automation leads us to a world where granite countertops cost as much as a fast food burrito, then choosing one is just a matter of personal preference and self-expression.

> and emotional prostitution (massages, photoshoots, personal trainers).

You say that like it's a bad thing, but you could also lump therapists, psychiatrists, counsellors, and many clergy-members in there too. What's so bad about a job that helps someone's emotional well-being?
A 90 IQ is probably a decent rough measure at this point, because that's about what it takes to handle a cash register or a grill. And when the those jobs are gone, it will inch up, 91, 92, etc. But forget it. Look at the future this guy has concocted in his head:

The main fields of human endeavor will be culture, arts, sciences, creativity, philosophy, experimentation, exploration, and adventure.

...it's like he's never met anyone who didn't attend a top tier university. Here's reality:

The main fields of human endeavor will be copulating, hustling, consuming low-brow entertainment, eating, and the occasional lunatic running amok.

...and honestly, we're square on that path right now. There are huge numbers of people who are literally useless eaters. Go to a Wal-mart supercenter sometime. Huge big fat people buying candy, soda, potato chips, frozen meals--often paid by the public dole. I'm not even complaining. Unless you start a sterilization program (and we aren't) it's the unavoidable present and future.

Who are the bad guys that are intimidating online voters? Family? Friends? Better to make a halfway informed decision from the recommendations of the social groups you are a part of than just guessing because you favor a particular side (republican or democrat) which is unfortunately how most of America votes (my speculation).

Employers wouldn't try to coerce employees, they would be fined too heavily. There are just not enough "bad guys" to make a dent in the actual results of online voting, or am I missing something?

You could have a regulatory agency to oversee nursing homes to prevent fraud there, that's a relatively easy problem to solve.

I don't necessarily mean that vote choices would be identifiable publicly, but there would be a way to identify that all votes are associated with a real person and a way for people to ensure that their vote is correct and being counted in the total.
This is also a good way to filter out who is actually your friend or who is hanging with you because "you're killing it."

>“But most people are like horses; they have only their manual labor to offer…” I don’t believe that, and I don’t want to live in a world in which that’s the case. I think people everywhere have far more potential.

Developing that potential requires significant investment and the outcome is highly competitive: we are already seeing a massive polarization of the labor force ('hollowing out'). Sure, the new economy creates well paid internet and creative jobs, but those are highly competitive fields where 2nd best just does not cut it. It went from something that any monkey could do (agriculture), to something that required some education (craftsmanship), to formal education (cashier), to requiring college (programmer) to requiring a certain elite education (investment banker), and so on. Society is becoming more and more polarized and instead of StarTrek it looks like we are heading for Metropolis.

> What would be the key characteristics of that world, and what would it be like to live in it? For starters, it’s a consumer utopia. Everyone enjoys a standard of living that kings and popes could have only dreamed of.

Does not follow. The robots will replace human work, but resources will still be important. So an excellent house might cost $10.000 in land and materials, but since you would have no job and no money you would not afford it. Meanwhile, someone who owns the robot factory and associated intellectual property, might decide 1 trillion dollars is a fair price to acquire the whole state of Maine and transform it into his personal golf course.

The end game of post scarcity capitalism is a completely feudal society where workers have no market value and are merely held as pets by the rich lords who want to.

I must have missed the other discussion. I looked around the big threads but couldn't find much about FCC's authority when it comes to international networks. Feel free to link it.

On US soil with US citizens and US companies, it should be simple. But it is a complicated world in which we live, so it sounds like the FCC could only really protect equality in the best of circumstances.

For the sake of conversation, lets say the FCC isn't powerful enough. Lets say the internet is just too powerful, and there is no hope of the FCC or any other organization to regulate it. Would net neutrality be lost forever? Is it lost already?
