% for completely miserable service and i just got my shoes off."

% and derps were derping about how it's really not enough and should be more like 15
%. incidentally looked on reddit the other day, "Everyone agrees" it should be over 20
%.
ben_vulpes: pretty routine to see 20
% property value declines top to bottom

%s\n", BN_bn2hex(sig->s));
mircea_popescu: unless you're keeping the army for offensive purposes (ie, we do 51

% of "the people" to agree the forked history is better off and then there you go, consensus has been achieved and all is well.
mircea_popescu: "It is true that a prominent member of the Bitcoin community quit, leading to a 10

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=17-11-2015#1325573 << Employer matches 401k up to ~6
% of annual income pre-tax. The 401k program allows you to tke a 401k loan and pay yourself back. Best case scenario you pay the fiat back over X period (as long as you don't leave the job), or somehow there is some huge collapse and you just never pay it back.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: jurov if you want now, the offer is -11
%. if you want +10

mircea_popescu: where you can get 1
% of the world's wealth in a room, but if you want 10

mircea_popescu: this pretense whereby "everyone is equal" covers the very abrupt distribution curve where 99
% owns jack shit and 1
% has no fucking idea what to do with the world. needs to be flattened out.
