Sat Apr 04 04:05:34 UTC 2015 <danielpbarron> To do this, you issue everyone with write access to the database, a GPG Keypair that they use to sign entries and changes. Each signer will have a GPG Keypair, and a separate machine will automatically sign all entries with its own keypair, for time stamping and authenticating entries. << this guy writes like he reads the log but misses the point

Sat Apr 04 03:59:06 UTC 2015 <danielpbarron> They are very short and terse in the text (just as the Bitcoin White Paper is) and you are invited to run the software yourself. The install process is simple, and then the software either does what it developers claim it does, or it does not. Its all simple and straightforward.
Sat Apr 04 03:57:35 UTC 2015 <danielpbarron> It is only now that Edward Snowden has confirmed that GPG is beyone the reach of the NSA, that their ignorant anti GPG nonsense is forever dispelled as garbage.

Sat Apr 04 03:52:29 UTC 2015 <danielpbarron> I have no doubt that these same people, had you enthusiastically said to them, "Your 64MB flash drive will hold a 64GB in a few years and cost less!" would have scoffed at the idea. The same thing is happening with Bitcoin. Men who know nothing about software are scoffing at the idea that Bitcoin can change and improve. Its an a-historical perspective, to use parliamentary language. On IRC, they simply say, "DERP!".

Sat Apr 04 02:19:35 UTC 2015 <danielpbarron> junseth, see also the arbitrary banning of various goods
Sat Apr 04 02:05:47 UTC 2015 <danielpbarron> i don't think the argument posed was that they don't work, but that the U.S. hasn't had one for the last century
Sat Apr 04 02:00:54 UTC 2015 <danielpbarron> if you register a gpg key with assbot, i'm sure someone here will give you a +1 which would let you voice yourself, and that lasts longer than 30 minutes
