mircea_popescu: if i say "b-a cannucks" i create one group, if i say " pete_dushenski, nubbins, [...]" i create a group with the same members, but through a different method, which makes it in fact a different group for this conversation.
mircea_popescu: only if you call the object through THAT constructor.
mircea_popescu: but you identified them as a group not as individuals.
mircea_popescu: e's no such thing as "evil group" possible.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski: if no change, then it depends on how useful holding descendants accountable is. < no, i'm with him. this makes exactly zero sense, chiefly because a group may be ridiculous, impractical, suicidal, anything you wish, but never wrong. only individuals can be wrong, in that they don't subscribe to the moral scheme of some group they intend to be part of. ther

mircea_popescu: and that is what time means anyway, entirely, as discussed above.
mircea_popescu: it does, in the sense of "block height"
mircea_popescu: because the include block hash only puts a minimum into the pie, not a maximum. the deeds registrar does both.
mircea_popescu: my observation was that as long as you're implementing this, you're better off with the b-a registrar than with your "include block hash and sign"
mircea_popescu: sure, no dispute there.
mircea_popescu: and stamina in bed.
mircea_popescu: right.
mircea_popescu: which is just how it should be after all.

mircea_popescu: and not disputable on lesser terms
mircea_popescu: once a block is part of the blockchain, its timestamp as declared is part of the history of the world
mircea_popescu: these are block accepting rules. irrespective of this, all blocks contain a timestamp.

mircea_popescu: the block's.
mircea_popescu: when it was mined yes.
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes> digest of thing is related to time how? << by being a tx in a block
mircea_popescu: i usually last a coupla blocks...
mircea_popescu: so it becomes part of the blockchain notion of time, and verifyably so.
