The reinforcement is from
the outside

two
things can happen, Guess What Happens Next: you could
tell
the
truth
that
the coke was on her ass and how could you not? doesn't make you a bad person; or pretend/admit you're an addict and agree

the drug is is no longer relevant, it is
the fact of
the drug
that is relevant.
The obvious example of
this sleight of hand is

mircea_popescu: One entangles
the nephew of one of
the most important and powerful Black Nationalist political figures of
the 20th Century, Jomo Kenyatta, and
the other entangles a key
tribal rival
to Kenyatta in love child
triangles just at
the moment of
the critical end
to a long bloody struggle for Kenyan independence from white colonial rule."
mircea_popescu: Ordinarily
that’s
the way
the story is suppose
to end,

town boys from Middle America makes good. It was just faith

mircea_popescu: "In America, everything is a commodity, everything has a price. So when post-gold standard capitalism gets access

to
talk in exchange for men quietly listening in. It
took a decade but

think it's clear now
that actually getting Bitcoin
to
the fabled seven
transactions per second will be a lot of hard work, unless someone comes up with a new SatoshiDice like business model
that results in huge demand for

things continue on
their present path, scalability is really
the least of our concerns - increasing usage is."
