a custom gig too, the economizer unit for our air handler was going to be 10x what we could build ourselves.
Ukto: building was
a little annoyed tho

a cut.
Ukto: same for brocade, simple commands to configure
a port.
Ukto: Besides, being
a firmware issue, I can understand their expectancy the issue being on my side

Bugpowder: DeadWeasel, IANAL but
a conservative position would be that any dividends or payments to you in bitcoin is considered income at the current exchange rate and should be reported. Any price gains in bitcoin holdings would be treated as capital gains upon sale of the coins
kakobreklaa: maybe they are having
a drink with tom somewhere
DeadWeasel: can anybody point me to
a guide on how to pay taxes on my BTCs? Do I need to?
gesell: man that message feature for the chain is gonna be
a disaster some day
DeadWeasel: How about someone writes
a guide on how to handle their taxes when they have BTC?
DeadWeasel: I'll OCR that shit and sell it for 5BTC, of course I'll only sell one before it's
a torrent, and we're both screwed.
jurov: i'll write
a book "MPEx: The Missing Manual" and sell it for 10BTC. dead trees only.

a decent rake for the operator
smickles: jurov: you can be
a subscriber, i'm the boss here
smickles: Bugpowder: would you write articles about the btc finance world for
a starting wage of .3 btc per article?
