All due to unmatched wisdom.


Is Orchard specific to restaurant solutions or would it work in any retail situation? How does it handle multiple stores in multiple states with different tax rates and pricing?


Fox News? No thanks.


You say you "worked in restaurants for years". If a customer stiffed you on a tip would that encourage YOU to give them better service next time they come in?


>You say you "worked in restaurants for years".

Yes, I did.

>If a customer stiffed you on a tip would that encourage YOU to give them better service next time they come in?

You shouldn't need any encouragement to do your job properly and professionally the first time imho.

And I wouldn't consider it being stiffed.

The couple who I poured an entire pitcher of water onto just as they sat down to dinner one night didn't tip me, and I am not confused or upset as to why.


If he sends me a bitcoin from one of Satoshi's wallets I'll believe him. 10 bitcoins and I'll believe him even more.


If he wanted to prove that he was Satoshi, couldn't he just move some of the BTC out of one of Satoshi's wallets? That would be proof enough for me.


KeePass is okay


They need to make this drug available before the 2020 presidential election.


Evil and dumb can be manageable. Evil and intelligent is frightening


You should read the Basic Laws of Human Stupidity, which concludes in the fifth law that a stupid person is the most dangerous: http://harmful.cat-v.org/people/basic-laws-of-human-stupidit...

However, while we can debate whether giving the drug to politicians would be a good idea, giving it to voters seems to have fewer downsides.


> frightening

I really don't know why people use this term. Nothing is frightening in the world of man.

It's like this:

Whatever can be made by man, can be destroyed by man.

Edit: So many frightened people...


Nothing is frightening because everything can be destroyed? That’s a new world view to me.


Here's some examples for your world view.

A man with a knife intent on doing harm, is stopped by one with a gun.

A man who develops a virus for a plague to kill people, is stopped by one who develops the cure.

A man who develops icbms to devastate a nation, is stopped by one intent to develop a missile defence shield.

There are many examples that I could continue with. The key takeaway here is that whatever some one does, in time there is an equal opposite reaction to counter it.

That's my world view. I personally don't fear anything. But then that's could be just how I'm built.


"A man who develops a world view to look badass on the internet"


What if the man with the knife stabs you in the stomach before the guy with the gun gets there?
