// Generate a static data member of type Stub::type in which to store
// the address of a private member.  It is crucial that Stub does not
// depend on the /value/ of the the stored address in any way so that

P2P payments for the masses

In 2009 Satoshi Nakamoto conceived Bitcoin, an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust. Bitcoin allow to make payments over a communications channel without a trusted party. In this post I will try to explain why its design choices are sound and fair.

Fixed money stock

Unless you are living on mars, you cannot avoid the amount of bad economic news on mainstream media, i.e. governments promoting either banks bailouts or bankrupt corporations too big to fail, hence running on larger and larger deficits, incresing taxes while cutting to the bone their services to population.

We are turned into thinking that the only way to escape our doomsday scenario is creating money i.e. a money expansion.

Never deliver code liable to exploit the well-being of colleagues

What you can do

If you agree with the above principle, you are encouraged to adopt measures so that a such conduct can be effectively applied in your environment.

If you are a developer, be ready to point out (perhaps in writing) that you are willing to take full responsibility of your code and for this reason you are expected in some situation (i.e. insufficient technical experience, insufficient aptitude, etc.) to proclaim the impossibility to deliver code for ethical reasons conflicting with the principle. Reciprocally, you should have the right to know the position of each member of your team about the principle.
