Disinfo or Poor Reasoning at Reason.com?

A recent article at Reason.com talks about how a specific font (ZXX) can hide information from the NSA. http://reason.com/blog/2013/06/21/dont-want-the-nsa-to-read-your-email-use This is a pretty silly claim. The first reason is pretty obvious: If it’s in digital text, then since the underlying character values are all the same as normal text and the font is irrelevant, well,… Continue reading Disinfo or Poor Reasoning at Reason.com?

A $500 per ozt Silver Example

Dr. Jeff has an interesting question in a recent article: http://www.silver-coin-investor.com/Silver-Short-Squeeze-Scenario-420.html When the negligible value of paper currency eventually becomes apparent, what does it matter if silver is $500 per ounce in a world where a loaf of bread costs $100?

Christianity and Anarchism/Voluntaryism

For quite a while I’ve been mulling over how Christianity is anarchistic, and even necessarily so. Then I came across this: http://anarchast.com/front/2013/5/2/anarchast-ep72-with-paul-rosenberg-christians-are-anarchists.html When you think about it, it makes sense. Christianity doesn’t force anyone to be a Christian. The entire point is to freely choose. Freewill is paramount. This is pretty much what you get… Continue reading Christianity and Anarchism/Voluntaryism

Obama vs. Reagan

Barack Obama: Unfortunately, you’ve grown up hearing voices that incessantly warn of government as nothing more than some separate, sinister entity that’s at the root of all our problems. Ronald Reagan: In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. Ahem… Nuff said?

Dear Mr. Paul Krugman, About Bitcoin…

Dear Mr. Paul Krugman, I read your recent piece about Adam Smith and bitcoin. http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/04/12/adam-smith-hates-bitcoin/ Once again, it seems all roads in economics come down to the roads. Perhaps, Mr. Krugman, you can explain how without roads, goods and services can be delivered to people efficiently? It appears that you agree with Adam Smith, and… Continue reading Dear Mr. Paul Krugman, About Bitcoin…
