What is the solution if a person uses a printer to print devices that are used for what most people consider criminal behavior? For example, someone printing high performing secret remote detonating bomb materials for political enemy rallies. After they serve the prison sentence. Do you let them own an open source printer again and let them use it without restriction?

With the power to print "anything" at low cost comes a tremendous power to kill thousands, even millions of people easily. How do you find the balance between freedom to let people print anything their hearts desire, and restrictions to stop the evil people from using that tremendous power for great evil?

The government is going to get its backdoor into cloud computing platforms one way or the other, because of child porn, the terrorists, and corruption. The segmenting idea is a dumb one because we don't physically own the space, it isn't ours. People with wearable supercomputers on programmers who are able to understand the metal on up through the software and data will be only truly free citizens (free from government fiddling with and spying on everything they do).

There will be precious few free independent citizens in the coming centuries. Most humans will become as one, where one human's consciousness will blur and blend into everyone else's. I will be one of the islands, choosing: "thanks, but I prefer you not have data injection, and fiddling rights with my own mind".

The beginning of this blended and blurred consciousness and hive minds begins here, today, with cloud computing becoming owned by the government, and having your desktops, laptops, smartphones and interfaces with your own mind as thin-clients. Where you begin to think about a crime, and the others will say: "That is a bad idea" and stop you as you are doing the crime.

Instead of selling floor space, they could subdivide the space like the "storage building" units. The customers could pay for a rack, and they would need a key to access it. Legally the hardware, software and data would be owned by the owner, and not the government. Anyone else would need a warrant to come in and rape your data, software, and hardware just like if the server was next to my bed.

Part of the reason why I have all my servers in places I own is because of this problem. This is a brief opportunity to explore cloud computing and give the communists and socialists who want everyone to share a common purse on the computing front a black eye.

My pain point is "I want boat loads of CPU cycles and Internet connection speeds, and I want physical legal ownership of the rack space, hardware, software, AND data, and I don't want to have to buy a building that I have to air condition, power, internet connect, secure, and pay taxes on.

Does D-Wave have any top secret schematics or diagrams we could look over?

I will be going out of my way to make sure I do not buy anything produced by Microsoft ever again, operating systems, consoles, software, etc. We are losing control of our computers. These computers will become a part of us one day, we must preserve our ownership of the metal on up through the software to the right to own and use the software itself. This is important.

I fear the day when we are all just extensions of the mothership, when the system decides you are out of line, the human slaves are simply a "thin client", they just press a button, and your entire life folds up and disappears, and resources are administered to another area. Buyers are losing their RIGHTS here. It's boiling a frog slowly. Soon we won't be able to own anything.

I loathe buying cars so much because of the snakes that run those Dealerships. They want the car buying process to be so excruciatingly painful so people will leave money on the table to "Just take my money and make the pain go away".

How far are Dealers willing to go to make it illegal for Tesla to sell cars anywhere? Would they go so far as to outlaw the production of Tesla vehicles in America because it goes against the Dealer protection racket?

And it has a chapter (2 and 3) on stepping through exactly what algorithms and data structures Einstein used to figure out that time itself slows down for you to explain why traveling at fractions of the speed of light does not change how fast light passes you by. More important than guessing time as the variable property, he was expert at creating experiments to disprove his hypothesis. "If this is the case, we should be able to do this exact experiment to expose the exact value for time dilation as you approach speed of light."

The book is about creating a program which exposes the operating principles of Einstein's neo cortex that can do what Einstein did. To create simplistic models that explain the underlying principles of physics, and has the ability to say: "If we model the phenomenon like such, than we should be able to observe the following phenomenon". Then to go out and perform a test gathering evidence or disproving it. Then brute forcing this process and selecting for the most simple model that explains all available data.

Show all hypothesis that explain all available data, that have not been disproved, sorted by complexity of the model with most evidence collected for it, and least evidence levied against it.

If each of these processes could be automated, we could use the world's supercomputers to crunch out 500 years of physics scientific discovery in a few years.

The best I can describe it is: "Matter is like water through a drain", I wrote a post with my consolation of how the three can be seen as one:

Potatolicious is right, that the system is partially responsible for his death. And if most of the responsibility ends up on the evil system, then it could be said his excessive compliance should be praised and admired. That compliance isn't an illness at all. He was just eaten by a larger critter than he, and used as fuel for ulterior motives.

But his claim does not invalidate mine because suppose this evil corporation is 100% guilty, and they used all the Jedi mind tricks to brainwash him into working himself to death for their own gain. He complied when he should have defied. They were offering him money, the lack of which may be as bad as death to the victim, but ultimately the source of the error was when an instruction which results in destruction was followed by the unit.

If the unit had said: "I would rather be unemployed than deal with this terrible situation", he may be alive now. He's removed from the gene pool anyway, so evolution agrees with me, whatever that subunit did, it is to be destroyed.

I'm suggesting we destroy the faulty subunits in his mind during school, by labeling "Cooperative compliance disorder" as a real thing that can remove you from the gene pool.

The forces in this world to mis-inform the general population on these very important subjects is so strong, that I would say most people fail to truly understand what is reality and what is fantasy.

I believe women suffer from this mental illness a lot more than men. The fact that one end of the spectrum gets to be a mental illness and the other end of the spectrum is just someone choosing to be a doormat illustrates a big problem. Either they are both mental illnesses, or they are both just ways of going about things.

Humans who always cooperate or always defy to the detriment of their own life means that the module in their brain which decides when to comply, and when to resist, is a malfunction to be corrected by available means.

So the question becomes: How did this person get to believe that when the desires of other men are of higher priority than your own physical health.

Like cell in your own hand, it did not object when the mind decide to send the hand through the fire, he gave his life so that the whole might complete its objective. Cooperative Compliance disorder.

So no, try again... Also, I didn't authorize that you look at my picture. The imprint you copied of it onto your brain is illegal, and you'll be hearing from my lawyer.

Warning, "monster milktruck demo" and "flight simulator" will take about 4 to 8 hours of your free time. Not as addictive as most video games, but approach with caution.

Could the Taliban do the same thing if some Americans were found guilty of educating women against sharia law and be executed?

How much do I need to be researching internet crimes defined by other countries so I don't get targeted by predators from other ecosystems?

If I can get sued for doing such a thing, certainly there has to be a law outlining it? Or is it the wild west like: "the cowboy with the fastest gun/lawyer gets the pesos".

This planet is in desperate need of a currency that can't be inflated by a select group of people not loyal to the interests of American Citizens. If a bitcoin ATM shows up nearby me, I would probably pay money just to help fund the cause.

But the problem is, the government is doing it exactly backwards. We need to be punishing AT&T for the fact that Weev gained access. Not punishing the person who got in.

It's cultiavating a culture of "It's OK to have no security". And as such, criminals are stealing your identity from everywhere all over the internet because the government wants to spy on the citizens.

If we have tons of weev's going around illustrating (proving to the world) that AT&T can be hacked by teenagers, then AT&T would fix their problems.

This whole situation is so disgusting. The people who are perpetuating the problems on the internet are the ones destroying the few capable hackers who are trying to point at the REAL problem. We need the government to pay Weev a million dollars every time he steals a batch of Identity information, and send the bill to AT&T. Eventually AT&T would be bulletproof.

It makes me very sad, kind of like when you see a criminal stealing some booze shoot a mother and a baby because they were witnesses and in the way. You just cry and move on. The problem of identity theft will continue to explode because the criminal is still lose, and the only solution was incarcerated.

It would be fine that the government shoots all US dollar holders in the foot by inflating their currency, the value of bitcoin relative to dollars would always increase, because the US Dollars would asymptotically approach zero value over time, as it has been. The bitcoin I worked hard to earn would retain their value. And the burglars would use their old fashioned tools to pilfer trillions from all Dollar holders, and will be forced to yet again shout: "darn" when they figure out they are only stealing from their left pocket to put into their right pocket. A waste of time.

Does that mean when this takes off I can earn, exchange and sell units of future human labor without the friction of governments taking 25% to 35% of it?

We can assume the government will spare no expense in destroying bitcoin by fiat by making laws against it, and if that doesn't work, using economic hit-men, supporting jackals, or the old trusty domestic military action with soldiers from Georgia and Virginia to break down the door of anyone caught using it under the table.

The question is, how is this war going to unfold? Will the US dollar be allowed to be exposed as the always-inflating Monopoly Money it is, and slowly fade out over the next 20 years? So many possibilities.

If bitcoin can survive laws that make it illegal, taxes on it that make it less useful than USD, assassinations of key figures, the destruction of companies promoting it, and domestic military action, then bitcoin might have a shot at becoming the next world currency.

Otherwise, a combination of these things will erase it to a footnote in the history books. But you can be darn certain that the government is going to levy their tax on the income of bitcoins. In the interests of the sovreign, to promote "fairness".

Then several generations later when the intellectual education system needs to be restarted after having spent so many years in the "just stay alive education system" it will save thousands of years of scientific progress.

I'm hoping one day our species will find one of these information silos, created by humans billions of years ago, on another planet somewhere, so we can regain what was lost.

It's the system of insurance that is broken, not the fact that dumb corporations are doing stupid things and losing other people's money.

Socialism doesn't work in any system that you implement it in. When you separate the consequences from the actor, the rational actors will behave in a maximally self-interested way and screw everyone else. When all do this, the nation falls back 100 years. Not remedied, the nation falls back 1000 years.

When one decides to go in a wild new direction, the other has to follow or pull in the other direction. When one makes a mistake, the other has to correct it.

When it starts to flow, it's a form of intimacy that can be extremely gratifying as it begins to feel like 1 or 2 additional programmers are in the room. You learn each others strengths and weaknesses, and the combined power of 2 minds can do things that the individuals were incapable of doing.

I understand pair programming. I've done it, the hard part is finding a compatible human to whom you can experience it with. When it really flows and you feel the additional ghost programmers helping out, it's like sex. A cosmic melding of two minds. When you are apart, it's like 75% of you is missing, and that is kind of sad.

So it's an intelligence race. The more intelligent system (a computer, human, or hybrid) will be able to deceive the lesser intelligent system (computer, human or hybrid).

So the problem changes from: "Is the entity I am dealing with a computer or a human" to: "Does the entity I am dealing with have intentions to gain an unfair advantage over this transaction."

Humans have a part of our brain where we look for how others might be taking advantage of us, the algorithms and data structures there are remarkable. Computers will need to acquire those abilities if they are to manage the exchange of money, goods and services.

The future of our species is huddling around the warmth of the campfire (sun) and using raw materials from the asteroid belt to create structures orbiting the sun, until we create a sphere around the sun and all space is exhausted... then.. maybe after another few hundreds after that point, will these planets become useful. But not for reasons we would think. Perhaps for research purposes to see if humans then have the capability to tune back in to evolution after a thousand years of being pampered and letting the DNA deteriorate by eliminating survival of the fittest.
