Politically and economically speaking? Hell yeah, just about the same if it were in any other continent, but not invading it for whatever reason. I honestly doubt any SA power would even send peace corps if the UN for some bizarre reason re

So does Brazil, the largest power in SA. We don't have this invasion surge thingy here, at least not since a while ago.

Why would any other south american country invade Venezuela at all due to defaults?

These release summaries KN publishes are awesome (and to be fair far from simple summaries!). I recall reading every one of them back in the days, only to learn about random stuff I've never heard about before. On the other hand, the r

That's a very simplistic (bit naive IMHO) POV.

Tracking is different than having your score data stored somewhere. Do you have a source for your "no" by the way? I'm genuinely curious.

Don't "yes, but" this, folks. The parent comment was very specific, focused, why not just ponder it?

Actually MANY countries are like that. I have visited several and I would say only anglo-saxon countries fit your description (and Japan). If that’s a thing with foreigners I don’t know but at least in Brazil even between locals this easygo

I hope you don’t mind a slightly off-topic comment here: we should really stop using the if-steve-jobs-were-alive card; we don’t do this with other iconic tech people who have died, do we?

Oh poor Twitter... practically useless.

Yet they over time created this crucial need of local/small business to have a Facebook page if they want to engage with potential customers and such, but now they change this “contract”.

At societal level I think medical research should benefit first, and then we can discuss what to do with the actual [socially] useless waste.

Hey, just took a moment to tell you it takes courage to post a Show HN about whatever it is that you built. I understand the tone of most of the comments about Gutenberg in here, but... stick to your plan and just ignore them, congrats for

Tucuruí was built over 30 years ago, how's that working out for them?

Your rant is so off the track with a populist tone that I don't even know how to start a proper response to it. You complain about stuff that have no basis for discussion considering all the points the article make, like, you failed to

Musk didn't say it would replace regular planes nor we would all be astronauts, that's just you saying it. Also, his talk was about 43min long and only the very last "slide" and couple of minutes discussed the why-nots o

I honestly believe some of Asimov's concerns regarding AIs are not science fiction but rather forward thinking and will eventually happen.

Was Isaac Asimov being distracted from the real issues as well just a few decades ago? Food for thought :-)

Think about it as daily car crashes and pollution-related deaths versus an Airbus A380 full of people exploding live on prime time TV. I bet my ass people will keep talking about flight safety for weeks, non-stop, which is absolutely nonsen
