A lot of weed and alcohol. People more curious than that will try LSD, schrooms, DMT, cocaine, Exctacy and MDMA. And pretty much any other drug they come across, at least once, except opiates. Never met anyone in IT doing opiates as far as I know (could be wrong). That is my experience amongst colleagues under 40 in the IT industry. Doesn't differ much from the other industry I've been in. None of these people have been effected by their weekend sins much besides hungovers and a thinner wallet.
I used the phrase bank robber but what I meant was värdedepårån. Semantics, the point is that financial crime is often treated worse than violent crime.
Our whole society is cashless and one of the official reasons are to prevent robberies. But we haven't changed sentences for pedophiles.
Pick a case. I just googled "dömd pedofil" and found several cases of them being convicted to 2-4 years prison for molestation and rape.
And they get psychological care very often.
There's one in Falkenberg that raped 3 girls for several years and he received a sentence of 9 years, which is 1 year longer than a famous unarmed cash robbery performed in Sweden.
Even when they get relatively harsh sentences it doesn't seem enough to me.
...Should they not? I mean, granted those sentences seem awfully lenient, but unless their sentence is life or death, they're going to get out eventually, and we want them to be less rapey when they do, right?
I'm just saying that psychological care is a summer camp compared to some other prisons.
Problem is that when pedos end up in normal prison they need 24/7 guards because the other inmates will hurt them. So in psych care they end up with others of their own kind and more lenient environments.
I don't think it's realistic at all. Most people get bored when they look at code. It's a 'living in the bubble' sort of thing to think this will happen, imho.
who do u recommend? i need to connect a US bank account but i dont have a US cel or US driver's iD...just a US Passport.
everyone seems to ask for a Driver's ID or Cel.
No, it resolves uncertainty and lets the community move forward in a unified way. It also shows Bitcoin's resilience in the face of committed minorities who would try to take over its governance. In short, Bitcoin survived a coup d'état, achieving total victory over a rebellious group of powerful actors (CEOs mainly).
I checked coinbase expected exactly that, thinking "oh man, I'm glad I didn't sell my eth a month ago to buy into bc trying to capture free altcoins like others did and like I considered doing, it'll be down like 10% at least" but it... shot up about 10% instead. I don't get it.
Having too many forks makes it confusing for newcomers (and even hedge funds). So naturally avoiding a fork and keeping the community together is good for Bitcoin, which made the price go up.
on wex it went up as high as $7900 and as low as $7000 so it is still very volatile, I would expect more of a sell off as people who bought in hoping to capitalise on a fork now exit their position but this may also mean more risk averse investors will buy in now that there is no contentious fork due. so, as usual with bitcoin, no one knows what the hell is going to happen
Wouldn't you expect alts to do well in this situation, since it's essentially the yang to the yin of moving from alts into Bitcoin in fork anticipation?
