Anyone know of the tax benefits/pitfalls of paying (and being paid) in bitcoin?

So your arguments are "because it's been that way for thousands of years"? That basically amounts to cultural relativism. I would have figured a bunch of hackers ("disrupters") would be more willing to set aside thousands of years of tradition more easily that the masses of duped souls in the general population. Lesson learned I guess. Too bad.

Why where makeup at all? The whole beauty-industrial-complex seems so ripe for destruction, and not disruption. My wife wears zero makeup, and I find she's ridiculously hot. Lets face facts: 1. Most makeup is not good for your skin 2. Makeup is deceitful (you're not showing your true self to the world = deceitful) 3. It's an enormous financial burden (especially for single women).

Square certainly has put in the time to understand small business owners pains, and it shows with this new feature. I'm not quite sure how this "takes control" of your online reputation. Maybe you could catch a hate-spewer before they hop on yelp? In my experience people make snap judgements and often post their negative review while at the establishment on their smart phones (e.g. while waiting for their slow hostess or something).

Untangle is a firewall with its own app store, and it works great! It's hard to imagine a firewall app store, but once you start using it, it just makes sense.

Very interesting UI. I wish though it would take up all the available screen real-estate, instead it feels like I'm artificially constrained by the UI. Other than that its a nice new take on google drive (which certainly needs some improvement!).

Noob to Ruby here...any thoughts on why gem_original_require is screwing me up? Thanks for the cool looking tool!
