to sit in an office for w/ever reason and go local.
turbo_ac100: Well, I heard it about Sofia
that developers are often

Dimsler_: one of
the guys

they still make xmas lights with individually replaceable bulbs

the
topic a bit so what's
this
thing with shrem, was he actually a shady guy?

tdon't like how gavin has
that bitcoind sourceforge key

those clowns do is more damage
than good

things are hard

the infrastructure for debugging is not built

the bitcoin foundation

to debug modern electronics, not
trivial
azi`: its in a way crazy
that we just
throw stuff when something
trivial breaks off

the
tos.
ThickAsThieves: sounds like
they have an engineer in charge of branding
turbo_ac100: appliances is

term I
think. Phones, laptops, Xboxes and so on
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves
they changed it once before, and it went
the same way, shittier after.
turbo_ac100: ifixit.com
tries
to go
to europe big
time but
they still pretty much suck
ThickAsThieves: another possibility for blockchain's logo is
their internal pm didn't
take
the advice of said hired pro
mircea_popescu: you may find decent elec engineers on
the cheap, but i doubt
they'd have much practice fixing stuff.
tinkering on
their own more like it.

to find stuff in eastern europe

to scale and questionable
typography are signs
they didn't hire a quality pro

the world's best roast in
the ovben and it is KILLING ME
