Why would you think comparing the developing world with the USA makes in any way sense - do you actually think the US is at the developmental level of India?
When comparing similarly wealthy countries the US is absolutely an outlier in this.
- RestlessMind 3y ago> Why would you think comparing the developing world with the USA makes in any way sense Because you said - "Thankfully the US is a major outlier in this aspect globally." "Globally" implies the entire world. Now why are you moving the goalposts? If you wanted to confine the discussion to the developed world, just call out US being an outlier in the developed world.
- tomtheelder 3y agoI think it was obvious what they meant given context.
- RestlessMind 3y agoI don't think it is that obvious. HN is a global platform after all.
- rcbdev 3y agoIt stands to reason that someone who has travelled to over 60 countries would have the ability to understand what someone is trying to say without being this needlessly pedantic.
- RestlessMind 3y agoProbably we have different reasoning processes then. But this discussion is about WFH vs remote and the impact of not having to commute. It is a very pertinent topic to a lot of workers in developing countries because they too have to endure shitty commutes every day.
