I'm reading a lot of comments exclusively blaming communism, but when I lived in Caracas during the first years of the Chavez presidency, I witnessed an overwhelming public support in his favor. Elections were won with ~70% of the vote

Will CAAP be the next best thing? Who knows? But one thing that has surprised me about MS and this whole bot-frenzy is how much they are opening up to other platforms. MS offers tools to build a bot within their framework using Node.js with

He monkeyed with the courts, and didn't hire enough judges to do the work, and so a person had to wait so long for his case to come up that he got sick of waiting, and went home, and so never got what was coming to him. He made a lo

In Brazil the small-talk culture is also strongly present. I can't speak for all places in the US, but definitely more than NY. I also was able to notice the same type of behavior in Venezuela, Uruguay and Peru. Maybe West could be rep

To wish to work in order to obtain the minimum requisites for living such as food, and be locked in this dead-end must be unimaginably frustrating. The capacity of human adaptation is amazing given the lifestyle Nate (and others) endure for

Brazil is missing from that list. BTW, here the public schools are the best (universities that is, public basic education is horrible). However, the rich still benefit from the system. Here's how it works: 1) Kids with money go to the
