meh peter is so predictable! Guess that's the academic method.. dismiss what's itching.

I've noticed and increasing trend of completely ignoring inconvenient points that an adversary brings to an argument and simply re-stating one's case over and over again.  It seems to be society wide.  It's an interesting observation and I don't believe it is a figment of my imagination.

Until relatively recently it seems like it was 'honorable' (or something) to consider and answer point made by another before moving forward.  Obviously this balloons and is not sustainable so if one is trying to be honest one spends some effort trying to abandon the least salient elements of a conversation first and focuses on the most difficult and valid ones.  The exact opposite seems to be the norm now, but it could be an artifact of degradation of participant quality on this particular forum which is the one I follow most closely.


For instance, always forget the "valid" part of "the longest proof-of-work chain", you naughty boy.. Roll Eyes

Btw if peter would be more serious about this, i'd take the bet. (in fact, i already have Wink)

Like instead of his educated farts, why not choose to stand by his beloved-once-such-energy-to-shill-it BitcoinXT?

But then what? cypherdoc as the escrow?! ^^

LOL!
