Why not this first?

Microsoft's shareholders, during last Dec's meeting, rejected Arjuna Capital's proposal that a report be compiled on the gender pay gap across Microsoft, specifically to include "the percentage global median pay gap between male and female employees across race and ethnicity, including base, bonus and equity compensation."

"The vocal people in the community seem like they don't actually care about Bitcoin, but they want to see it succeed so that their "investment" makes a profit."

Im into Bitcoin, and I agree with this view. Most specially the reddit based bitcoin community.

Seems like someone is definitely trying to cause panic by trying to do "btc withdrawal dos" on exchanges maybe in the hopes of driving the price of bitcoin down.

seems like you got your future head of marketing over here!
He doesnt even need a copy of the wallet file.

If he stored the bitcoins in a single address, and he has the private key stashed somewhere, then even if the wallet file is deleted, it can be retrieved. This is how bitcoin works, if you have the ECDSA private key of a bitcoin address, you can spend those bitcoins without having the need for a wallet :)

lol, its as if this came from some movie where a some new up and coming fighter unknowingly messes with a retried but still sharp ex-champion, and instantly gets his ass handed to him.

I'd have to disagree with you on citing a paralellism between this case and "Pirate Bay vs Sony etc". As there's quite a huge difference between hosting the copyrighted content yourself, and pointing to where one can find copyrighted content. This has been the torrent stand ever since: that pointing to content stolen or otherwise is no way violating any sane law.

And it's quite sad really how an insane US law, the DCMA, is being used to make link aggregators, search engines and the like bend over to media conglomerates.

Re:WhosHere's response to Brian Hamachek/Who's Near Me on Saturday June 02, 2012 @01:55AM (#4057200)
Omitting to mention that he tried to sell them an app, and failing to mention the other party's offer of 100k. Just throws out any sympathy I have for Brian.

Clearly this is just mud-slinging and a good play at eliciting the developer and HN community's tendency to white-knight oppressed "davids" without hearing both sides of the story.

Re:WhosHere's response to Brian Hamachek/Who's Near Me on Friday June 01, 2012 @10:00PM (#4056713)
apparently according to Brian he has an obscene trust fund, so why didnt he lawyer up. Perhpas the mileage HN could bring + bad press he can bring about to a competitor was more enticing?

get a good host that has some bandwidth overage contingency in place to keep your site from going down. unless of course you don't really want traffic on your site.
Re:Stopwatch with only CSS3 - No javascript on Monday May 21, 2012 @02:26AM (#4001570)
