You disagree that keyle wants feedback?

That's literally all they said.

How can you disagree about what one individual says they themselves want?

> Any doctor's office just blindly asks you sign a HIPAA authorization release form.

You are incorrect. You are being asked to acknowledge that you received a copy of their privacy policies. You can decline and it doesn't change very much (if anything), because they will still document that they informed you of them... which they did.

It's understandable that people don't read what they're signing; I often don't have time, either. But you are posting about that form having not paid much attention to it, which is less common, in my experience.

Don Ho seems like a really cool guy.

I hope he is able to get the patch Incorporated, because it sounds like the security team provided one.

Thanks Don, for your work; and thanks Jaroslav, for the security discovery.

They are overworked and employed by mega corporations.

They are all miserable.

Talk to one.

The institution that controls the currency will always fight any alternative currency.

That's one big piece of the value proposition of Bitcoin: it is governed by user consensus, not political power.

Damn. Never heard of it but it looks cool!
