@DavidShares Shhhh, it will hear you!
@pig_poetry Perfect - if the computer driven car is going faster than the humans can then the humans can’t hit it!
@pig_poetry Why would it matter if other cars are computer-driven or human-driven?
In a world with autonomous vehicles ungoverned by human speed limits I can see a selling point being “time to complete the Cannonball Run.”
Does it even make sense for autonomous vehicles to be governed by government mandated speed limits? The software can decide the safe speed.
Once autonomous cars are affordable, I’ll never fly anywhere within an 8 hour drive - I’ll just sleep drive my way there overnight.
@dan_pantera @PanteraCapital Are you suggesting that once volume maxes out with full 1 MB blocks, the price also maxes out?
@msantoriESQ @aantonop Don’t tell that to people on /r/bitcoin; they’ll think you’re claiming price is irrelevant. https://t.co/uWYapPSh2V
@alansilbert Even without a known winning bid, we often see losers post their bids, which can provide enough info.
@alansilbert Yeah, though I think most of them were. Lazyweb, please do the research for me!

@ErikVoorhees I think you mean “Genesis Blockchain Shares” are up 8%
@alansilbert That’s what I thought since @coindesk only shows ~$450M YTD. You’d think journalists would be better at English.

@ziggamon At this time not enough care strongly enough to fork; the question is at what time will enough people feel it is critical?
@ziggamon I think it’s clear that a BIP101 fork would fail right now, but proposing protocol changes is a never-ending process…
