  1. Cool work on infrastructure for *next generation economic systems*

    It’s not a question of if, and only a question of when decentralised p2p
    technologies will replace the walled gardens that intermediate economic
    activities today.

    http://www.tribler.org/trac/wiki/TriblerForBusiness:
    *Tribler is open-source peer-to-peer software developed at TU Delft, and VU
    Amsterdam. We foster co-development with other universities, companies and
    the open-source community. Anybody is free to download Tribler, to use it
    and to modify it under LGPL License (see LicensingTerms).*

    *Tribler is currently rapidly developing from a P2P-downloading client to a
    multimedia sharing platform with embedded player, recommendation,
    communities, etc. Many industrial partners have already discovered the
    possibilities of using Tribler in their environment.*

  2. this sounds like a bunch of bullshit. Google and the carriers will just
    change the network so you can only access centralised services, and change
    the terminals so you can’t run code on them. This is obvious because it is
    already happening.

  3. Also, it sounds like the ultimate in democratic tyranny. If you have ever
    been on reddit or youtube, then you know how abysmally stupid and cruel the
    majority is. The value of privacy is exclusion and preservation of
    identity, the choice of association and non-association. Building a system
    to ensure the privacy of public communications seems self-defeating, and
    privacy of private systems is a solved problem.

  4. There were a lot of topics but the comments about Bitcoin collapsing is
    mistaken. Measured in terms of transactions, it has been skyrocketing, at
    levels that are a multiple of year-over-year. Measured as the quantity of
    coins issued times the current market price, Bitcoin is just below its
    all-time high from 2011, and the exchange rate currently is up more than
    150% in 2012. That’s not “collapsing” in anyone’s book.

  5. Going by the BitCoinChart the all time high in June 2011 was close to $30,
    all the rest of that year the value fell by almost 90% according to Ars
    Technica. At the time that this was filmed it had returned to $5. Today
    it’s close to $12.50, up this year from a starting point of $5. Only last
    month it lost 40% of it’s value in one day.

  6. Interessante Sichtweise. Wobei Ihr Unternehmen mit den Flaschenteilungen
    ebenso “negativ” betroffen sein dürfte.

  7. Dazu gehört auch immer die Weisheit der Vielen.
    youtube.com/watch?v=VP3GfKD_-as Wenn sich der Mensch auf unterer Ebene
    selbst organisiert, dann wird es richtig gut. Wenn dagegen von oben regiert
    wird, dann ist das Ergebnis meist suboptimal, da die eigentlichen
    Teilnehmer nicht richtig partizipieren.
