I'd be legitimately surprised if Satoshi was not a U.S. government project.

Based on my experiences with their product, I think some top-down direction is precisely what they could use. Just because so many managers and/or management paradigms are inept does not mean that we should throw the baby out with the bath water.

He addresses this in his post.

Publicly shaming someone because they were mean to you — this is a lot worse than bullying. Zed Shaw is famous because he's good; not because people love his personality. That being said, I enjoy his personality far more than the author's.

Just tried mine out and am pretty disappointed. Mouse and keyboard seem pretty revolutionary after 15 minutes with the Leap.

Best idea I've heard since PRISM broke.

This guy is a pharmaceuticals shill — of course he denounces his competitors.

No, that was your inference. The implication was that correlation does not equal causation.

Yes, precisely! It is possible to prove causation, however, this submission does not do so. Please read this primer:

I'm sorry — I should have said 'proof'.

Not at all. However, I also don't then post inflammatory pseudoscientific articles on the Internet with headlines like "White stove caused burns in man who was never burned by black stove." It's the current trend of bad science and lack of journalistic integrity that I'm taking issue with.

Look, I understand many of you are upset by this, however, there are ways to prove causation — it's just a lot more complicated than this.

Here's a primer:

Since we have so many fans of science on this site:

Correlation does not imply causation.

Please provide evidence that Satoshi exists.

What conspiracy are you referring to?

Gawker does this.

Interesting that in your 123 days here, you've made a point of defending the government in almost all of your comments. What makes you so secure in your trust?

As evidenced by your 'hug request' anecdote, it seems your time could be better spent AFK in general and learning how and why people interact with one another. For example, hugging is a spontaneous gesture (aside from greeting/farewell hugs) meant to convey a feeling of connectedness between two people. It sounds like you are actually suffering from feelings of alienation and in your confusion, projecting these feelings onto society and the YC/HN community at large. Furthermore, increase in the use of prescription antidepressants is only a correlation between time and prescription antidepressant use. That is to say, it doesn't prove that people are more depressed nowadays.

Vote for who? The Republican who supports the status quo or the Democrat who supports the status quo? Or the third party candidate who won't win?

Yes, I don't know why this is so difficult for people to comprehend.

Let's say for the sake of argument that everything you listed is true, which, it's clearly not. Does it matter to you at all that this is UNCONSTITUTIONAL? Does the founding charter of our nation mean absolutely nothing to you?

Dismayed that this is news. This guy should have never been charged. Now we're surprised he wasn't convicted. SMH.

Yes, precisely. But that's a conspiracy theory so you must have a personality disorder :(

Ah, just on time... Another, "If you don't think like we do, you're insane" article from the greatest evidence of modern journalistic decline we have before us, The New York Times.

Begin the shift towards painting opponents of PRISM as conspiracy theorists. Oh, and I read in the NYTimes that conspiracy theorists are really suffering from personality disorders. It's in the DSM6!

It's not the sixties anymore. You can waste precious time and resources protesting or you can raise funds, buy a politician or two, and make some real fucking changes like an adult.

Brilliant.

Thank you.
