Sure, good luck using dollars without any banking services. The dollars are so safe under your pillow. Especially since the country is so stable and nice and criminals are so nonexistent. Very good plan.

It’s hardly a choice for its country’s people. Governments in developing countries are very big bullies.

Then the problem is with the police, not the tech, right? Safety is a really big privilege.

A Solarized-light style one (similar to HN's background) would also be nice. Text becomes blurred for me in dark mode, and the white backgrounds are too bright.

This article doesn't say anything worth hearing. It can be summarized as, "Google has not done visibly big consumer innovation." Which is not that true either. Their "cluttered" search is adding a lot of value. Thei

Perhaps the current situation is completely okay? Some people sacrifice their leisure to work for something they care about. These tend to be men because of heightened competition. Who are you to dictate their life to satisfy your statistic

This experience is highly atypical. You can’t get this just by “treating” it differently. The current bullshit situation is a stable Nash equilibrium. Of course, if you should have certain advantages, you could sacrifice those and change yo

No tech in history has ever included everyone. All ideologies are lies, “buy low sell high” bullshit. Build any tech that makes the world a better place, and try to make it as inclusive as possible. My intuition is that for breakthroughs to

Maybe you should first read your history (much of it still alive in “less privileged” countries), and then decide that your witch hunting is the new best religion. Full disclosure: I am living in middle east. I am disabled. I believe in equ

It’s not “moneyed classes”. Normal upper middleclass people will get screwed, while the corrupt rich will get around the law just fine.

It's mostly irrelevant anyways; The biggest inefficiency of dictatorships is that there are actual dictators that can eat a nation's riches. I don't quite see that parallel in design space.

Thanks! I get fairly surprised by how handy JS bookmarklets can be, like when I was not experienced with Unix scripting. :-) Would you mind taking a look at this [question]( https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61973488&#
