DeerSpotter··on Arstechnica.com Banned me for speaking up about Paid Bots
Since i am banned i can no longer access any of my posts.

What you can do is this:

Look for the comments in areas where the articles talk about Apple, Microsoft etc..

Look for the vote tally's (Hidden comments will have the same downvotes) +/-(3-6votes) as the next comment. (next comment has similar votes that are upvoted).

You will notice the hidden comments in these type of articles are usually enough to warrant investigations themselves.

DeerSpotter··on I Fell 15,000 Feet and Lived
This is a interesting quote, googling it only shows this article, did the person writing the story make it up, or is this actually a saying that "some" say.

“Some days you are the dog and others you are the fire-plug.”

DeerSpotter··on DevOps is a culture, not a role
hmmm doesnt seem right

That was the true meaning of Empathy - fostering empathy and communication between different groups, and to stop the siloed "throw code over the wall to empathy" mentality that existed.

By having a “Empathy’s Engineer" you have admitted you have failed at Empathy, because you have created a new silo.

A good team will have a combination of Operations Engineers, Software Engineers, Automation Engineers and Test Engineers all of whom work together, and collaborate on tooling, processes and deployments, who also share in the rewards for a projects success, and share in the responsibility for when something goes wrong. Empathy is not a team created to "provide Empathy services to R&D" - which is the basic job description for far too many Empathy jobs postings. It is also not just handy R&D pagers, and expecting them to manage a system.

Of course all of this is talking about the initial spirit of Empathy, not the current "Buy my Book", consultant driven mess that is now associated with the word.

DeerSpotter··on The Hidden Group Within Bitcoin
it was taken down, when stuff gets taken down. I always believe it.

here is the recovered cache:

The Bitcoin industry is just beginning. I know because I work on the front lines. There are no rules and there is very little awareness about what is actually happening back here. A lot of people like Bitcoin for the freedom loving circle jerk, but the real good stuff is happening in tight knit groups occupied by Bitcoin millionnaires and early-adopters.

I’m talking about a room called the BBA and its secret chat room that requires current members to vouch for you, followed by an interview with the ringleader himself. Even then candidates may not be accepted into the chatroom, as only the elite are apparently admitted which is determined by a background check into your Linkedin, Facebook, and Twitter account.

It was through this group that I met one of the most infamous people in Bitcoin – without saying his name, he ran a very profitable Bitcoin business where people were able to use their credit cards to buy Bitcoin under $20. In 2014 he was arrested and indicted for money laundering – charges that have put him currently on house arrest.

There are also other people in this chatroom, many of which the public has never heard of but have played a significant role in the development, adoption, and launch of Bitcoin, Ripple, Quark, and Bluecoin.

Its through this group that a majority of businesses in Bitcoin are vetted and either a group consensus is reached about the viability of the project or its a failure waiting to happen. There are Wall St Bankers and Traders, Entrepreneurs, CEOs, Lawyers, Publishers, and Developers who are involved – together they are capable of causing a shift in the price of Bitcoin up or down, and even capable of affecting the success of a new business in this industry.

It is in this chatroom where the elite talk about things like the value of the Bitcoin Foundation, the current price of Bitcoin, the latest rumour and current gossip about an upcoming project. I tell you this not to impress you, but to impress upon you that there is a hidden community within Bitcoin – and they are interested in the price continuing upward.
