Ben Franklin’s proposal of something like daylight saving time was written as a joke.
In a comedic letter he wrote, An Economical Project (published in 1784), ”to the authors of the journal of Paris”, Franklin mentions something like daylight saving time. Although, instead of changing clocks, he suggested ringing church bells and firing cannons, among other things, as the sun rises to maximize the amount of time people would be awake during times when the sun is providing free light. The letter was meant to be a satire, rather than actually suggesting these changes be made.
Here’s an excerpt of the letter:
He then goes on to estimate that a total of about 64 million pounds of wax would be saved in Paris alone over a six month period starting in spring if people woke up when the sun came up. He then suggests a variety of methods to induce people who are “obstinately attached to [the] old custom” of getting up at noon to wake up with the sunrise, such as taxing people who have shutters on their windows, rationing candles, and waking people as soon as the sun comes up by ringing church bells and firing cannons.
Although, it’s quite clear he’s joking around in this letter, Franklin was known for putting more subtle jokes in many of his other papers that only the most astute would spot. He was so famous for this that, according to Ormand Seavey, editor of Oxford’s edition of Ben Franklin’s autobiography, when they were deciding who should write the Declaration of Independence, they partially chose Jefferson over the significantly more qualified and respected Franklin, as some feared Franklin would embed subtle humor and satire in it that wouldn’t be recognized until it was too late to change. Knowing this document would likely be examined closely by the nations of the world at that time, they chose to avoid the issue by having the much less gifted writer, Jefferson, write it instead, with Franklin and three others to help Jefferson draft it.

Here’s an excerpt of the letter:
Quote
You often entertain us with accounts of new discoveries. Permit me to communicate to the public, through your paper, one that has lately been made by myself, and which I conceive may be of great utility.
I was the other evening in a grand company, where the new lamp of Messrs. Quinquet and Lange was introduced, and much admired for its splendor; but a general inquiry was made, whether the oil it consumed was not in proportion to the light it afforded, in which case there would be no savoring in the use of it. No one present could satisfy us in that point, which all agreed ought to be known, it being a very desirable thing to lessen, if possible, the expense of lighting our apartments, when every other article of family expense was so much augmented…
I went home, and to bed, three or four hours after midnight, with my head full of the subject. An accidental sudden noise waked me about six in the morning, when I was surprised to find my room filled with light; and I imagined at first, that a number of those lamps had been brought into it; but, rubbing my eyes, I perceived the light came in at the windows. I got up and looked out to see what might be the occasion of it, when I saw the sun just rising above the horizon, from whence he poured his rays plentifully into my chamber, my domestic having negligently omitted, the preceding evening, to close the shutters.
I looked at my watch, which goes very well, and found that it was but six o’clock; and still thinking it something extraordinary that the sun should rise so early, I looked into the almanac, where I found it to be the hour given for his rising on that day. I looked forward, too, and found he was to rise still earlier every day till towards the end of June; and that at no time in the year he retarded his rising so long as till eight o’clock. Your readers, who with me have never seen any signs of sunshine before noon, and seldom regard the astronomical part of the almanac, will be as much astonished as I was, when they hear of his rising so early; and especially when I assure them that he gives light as soon as he rises. I am convinced of this…
Yet it so happens, that when I speak of this discovery to others, I can easily perceive by their countenances, though they forbear expressing it in words, that they do not quite believe me. One, indeed, who is a learned natural philosopher, has assured me that I must certainly be mistaken as to the circumstances of the light coming into my room; for it being well known, as he says, that there could be no light abroad at that hour, it follows that none could enter from without; and that of consequence, my windows being accidentally left open, instead of letting in the light, had only served to let out the darkness…
This event has given rise in my mind to several serious and important reflections. I considered that, if I had not been awakened so early in the morning, I should have slept six hours longer by the light of the sun, and in exchange have lived six hours the following night by candle-light; and, the latter being a much more expensive light than the former, my love of economy induced me to muster up what little arithmetic I was master of, and to make some calculations, which I shall give you, after observing that utility is, in my opinion the test of value in matters of invention, and that a discovery which can be applied to no use, or is not good for something, is good for nothing… [From The Writings of Ben Franklin: An Economic Project]

Benjamin Franklin, through extensive study of the world’s major religions and various moral codes, came up with a list of thirteen main virtues that he felt every person should strive to live their life by. As such, he himself attempted to always live by this code and developed charts with which he charted his progress from day to day, to make sure that he was constantly improving towards this end.
He would start with one of the virtues and plot his progress on the chart until he mastered that virtue; then moving on to the next; and so on until he mastered them all. He ordered them specifically as shown below, as some of them naturally lend towards others. Thus by sticking to this order, he felt it made it easier to achieve the whole.
This code is as follows:
Temperance: Eat not to Dullness, drink not to elevation
Silence: Speak not but what may benefit others or yourself. Avoid trifling Conversation
Order: Let all your Things have their Places. Let each Part of your Business have its Time
Resolution: Resolve to perform what you ought. Perform without fail what you resolve.
Frugality: Make no Expense but to do good to others or yourself: i.e. Waste Nothing
Industry: Lose no Time. Be always employ’d in something useful. Cut off all unnecessary Actions
Sincerity: Use no hurtful Deceit. Think innocently and justly; and, if you speak; speak accordingly.
Justice: Wrong none, by doing Injuries or omitting the Benefits that are your Duty.
Moderation: Avoid Extremes. Forbear resenting Injuries so much as you think they deserve.
Cleanliness: Tolerate no Uncleanness in Body, Clothes, or Habitation
Tranquility: Be not disturbed at Trifles, or at Accidents common or unavoidable.
Chastity: Rarely use Venery but for Health or Offspring; Never to Dullness, Weakness, or the Injury of your own or another’s Peace or Reputation.
Humility: Imitate Jesus and Socrates.

Benjamin Franklin was born on January 17, 1706, the tenth of seventeen children. As a child, his father planned for him to be a clergyman, but they were in no financial state for that to happen.
Due to lack of money, Ben only ever attended one year of school. Instead of schooling him, his father sent him off to apprentice to his older brother at a printing shop. Ben loved to read, so he enjoyed printing, for he was able to read the many writings that came through their newspaper.

--scan-time 1 --expiry 2 --queue 1 add to your bfgminer command line or put in multiminer under settings advanced miner settings
Yep, same numbers for cgminer

contemplating bailing for solo tho.. it is over 80% doa... gonna stick with for now hoping ppl read here and adjust settings.
February 03, 2014, 03:02:18 PM
yes, queue should be 1
and lowering scantime gets alot more accepted, and fewer rejects
its a shame people have nice hashrates, but don't know how to use them
for maximum efficiency.

this miner on the p2pool has excellent hashrate! Around 50Ghs
However, his miner settings are WRONG! See all the RED???
This miner needs to adjust his miner's settings --- Lower the SCANTIME !
The second graph shows earnings --- He is not earning like he could/should!
If your hashrate graph has ALOT of RED like this, you must adjust your miner's settings
or suffer the consequences, LoL
1EwKmi6ebaRgcv1RJVzsivdCi1Br8nNdms << its true bout the scantime, I changed mine about halfway through (I had forgotten and left it on bitcoin default) the difference is quite distinct.

I also suggest lowering queue, personally. Looks like whoever that chart is is losing about 10% of their hashrate on stales

only 1389 BEN in 24hrs?
which pool and what's your hashrate?
the p2pool was finding blocks every so many seconds...
its taking a little longer now, DIFF increased, and the pool could use
some more asic miners who wanna earn more!
here's the current payouts for a block:
1EwKmi6ebaRgcv1RJVzsivdCi1Br8nNdms 34.78969678
1EmDtJW95WUndg5fHx62MSB8CFACdjkTu1 33.54900625
1AYCTaEEsX7uBtLK8mMABQWhRC3SEMh7n8 8.45495211
1CKAtDFTEfn56ZG5gcj5ZzArZh1LDvAdzk 8.42621296
12z5e3kkLtWoFimaSfwpFZC3qihyxivYZk 5.71644277
1JicBSmMKsVFeHmrh6QVaehqMsQGkuz3PU 3.89532649
1ADgXJ1uQLVBx77CiWonavtMmQnioqFnNU 2.6844964
1JDdHy4kHAJ16iUwdtVsHvYjGmvF6qJ6oh 2.39852039
The big miners are making bank!
the pool hashrate is only 65Ghs right now,
so if your not happy with the Ths sign-up pool,
join the p2pool!
Less miners to split payouts with = more $$$$ for you
