I meant competition against the FAA, not against boeing.

I fail to see where I was pejorative. I was confrontational, yes. You are right on the clarity department.

You keep adressing my secondary point. The one that seems to personally hurt you. Stories evolve. Top voted comments change. The replies to those are also part of the discussion, and some are highly voted too. My top comment in this discuss

My central claim is this: > It took China for once having an independent policy instead of "impartial" agencies pushing their agenda onto a defenseless world. And I stand by my comment about HN: I clearly remember the bias on t

It took China for once having an independent policy instead of "impartial" agencies pushing their agenda onto a defenseless world. May I remember that most HN jumped to defend Boeing and the FAA, without a shred of evidence? I wel

You mean until the US stops doing similar spying worldwide? Makes sense.

Let me pick your argument apart: > This is just an appeal to hypocrisy and doesn't really discredit your parent's argument, which is more on topic. So, we are supposed to accept the following: - criticizing China, a relatively

Americans complaining about spying by other governments, even if true, would be the top of hypochresy. It is so blatantly clear that the motivations to fight Huawei are mainly because of losing the technology race, that it is not even funny

I guess you are right, the Mediterranean diet is terrible: all people following it are dying. It still seems to be one of the best available though. I hope you are right and medicine becomes more of an exact science.

We are talking about two billion years! It's a possibility, in no way the only one. It can happen that any crisis wipes us, or even life in the planet, out.

At some point it will become more economical to terraform other planets than to prevent the Earth from unterraforming. Assuming the technology is there, we will have lots of choices available. Maybe we can even do both.

I don't find convoluted when you say that you take part into an international agreement, and then you stick to your word. You expect the whole world to be familiar with the intricacies of the US Government. I assume that you have taken

What that has all to do with the arrest? She has been arrested for violating a completely unrelated US law (in non-US territory).

What I read from this is: "the US has a convoluted process, which nobody understands, in order to commit to international agreements". It seems everybody, including head of states, thought the US had agreed to the treaties, but th

That is a consequence of the cultural supremacy of the US: the US is used to the world adapting to it, and fails miserably at adapting to the world.

It requires full international cooperation, otherwise carries will tend to tank where taxes are lower. Not that that is always possible: if you land in Frankfurt and your deposit is empty, you will still need to tank in Frankfurt. But, with

First, air moves, so that is not totally correct. Second, the local air quality is related to local policy: if other countries want to improve their local air quality, local policies are needed. China seems to be working in that direction,

I have a non-enforceable CoC for you: "To participate in this community, you need to kill three people by Sunday" Simple. Also, I hope you have nothing against it, since it is not enforceable.

I see what you did there! Religion and Church are not to be blame, since as soon as there is any blame going around, the State, and not religion / church, is responsible! Sleak!
