Topic: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It - page 11. (Read 3917029 times)

Nassim Taleb and Dave Collum are many things, but "fools" is not one of them.

Crumbs, etc. were presenting factual and important information.  It was to AM investors' detriment that they ignored and/or raged against.

Was defending and preserving your precious faith/belief/confirmation bias UNTIL IT WAS INCONTROVERTIBLY DEMONSTRATED TO BE 100% WRONG worth all the BTC you lost in AM?

Of course it wasn't.  That's why, in western civilization, we look down on the practice of shooting the messenger (whether that messenger is offensive or polite).

We are reality based, and don't construct our world views based on popularity and tribal groupthink.

I will take an astute asshat like crumbs over a pandering heap of easily offended emotional garbage like you any day of the week.

Still a little remainder at the mining address.

 Exactly!  The reason I didn't say it in that manner though is because I wanted to you "hear" it.  "Who cares?" is so disheartening.  I'm glad you understand.



 Nobody cares!

 ...or fools seldom differing?

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?

 When the "information" is merely opinion; baseless, non-factual and unimportant speculation with no supporting evidence presented by an asshat, it should be ignored forthwith so as not to waste more of your precious time.  Furthernore, it should never be labeled as "important".

Yes it does, if you value keeping an open mind.

The paradigm of 'it's not enough to be right, you also have to be nice about it' is at odds with enlightenment values.

Ignoring important information 'Because Offended' is cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Edit:

Great minds thinking alike...

Are the bitcoin addresses controlled by friedcat all empty now?

*lol* I like that sentence.

In fact all these trolls did a simple thing to be right... they simply told everyone that every investment is a scam. Unfortunately that is a good bet in bitcoin world to be right.

On the other hand, just because one asshole was right about one thing doesn't mean that we need to listen to assholes all the time just in case they'll be right again.

Reality is not a popularity contest.

"People" need to learn that refusing to listen 'Because Offended' is not an acceptable practice, and has consequences.

Was the pleasure they got from Ignoring\castigating crumbs worth all the BTC they lost?   

Ah the good old days. When hopes were high.......just ripe enough for a crash.

No no no. THIS is oldie, but goldie:


plus

this threads boring

Any info as to why it is so difficult for AM to get a PR team (or person) set up? They can manage to do quite a bit behind the scenes, you would think a guy who posts updates regularly wouldnt be an issue.

Is there a person selected already - or is there a search still underway?

In a nutshell, the explanation for communication issues is that no clear guideline exists on which information should be released at which time and in which format. So the topic has been dealt with half-assed and procrastinated ad infinitum, and frankly FC had bigger issues to deal with than inform everybody how many problems pop up on a daily basis. That said, AM may still be the most transparent mining device supplier on the market, simply due to the need to disclose financial statements.

Yes - a person has been selected to implement a technical solution. But unless a clear information policy and schedule has been worked out it's exchanging apples for apples. I'll do my best to keep the issue alive and hopefully we can agree on something like a transparent policy guideline which doesn't preclude surprise vectors.

You probably never posted your asicminer bitcoin address on the forum. Or you are a smaller shareholder. I wonder what the spammers are looking for. Crawling the forum for addresses or checking out the blockchain for addresses that get reused often? Maybe they check for low amounts because it could be a newbie that doesn't know the scam or for big amounts because they might check it out and don't care when it is scam?

I wonder if it is rewarding too. Probably not many will reveal that they fall for that.

No spam here, long term hodler.

Spot on:



I've gotten spam dust like this before but usually the amount is less in value. Must be the lower price that makes it affordable to spam this way ;-)

 Some goof with a website called x-bitcoins sent 0.0001 to two of my addresses which I'm sure have been publicly posted.  He/she/it claims to have a system that tricks mining pools into thinking you have 100TH/s and therefore you can make 1 bitcoin per day. All you have to do is download their virus script and you too can begin stealing too.

Check your receiving address out on blockchain.info. The probability is high that there is an advertising text in the comment field, advertising some scam site or so.

This kind of spam is relatively common unfortunately.

I doubt it has something to do with Asicminer.

am I the only one who just received 0.00010000 BTC in their ASICMINER address? I am writing this one off as spam but it would be interesting if more people received this 'ping'

 I'll try.  In the meantime, show me a nobody whose opinion matters!

[edit: That was easy!  Sergio Marchionne, CEO of Fiat Chrysler is telling customers not to buy the Fiat 500E.  Your turn.]

Well show me a CEO that states that he would not prefer/use the products of his company! Of course he says anything in order to calm investors titties!
