Fun fact, when I went to a trip through Europe (I'm from Buenos Aires) I arrived at 6AM on a sunday. And the first thing I noticed is how different the bird sounds are.

My guess is that FB stores the keys to reverse the encryption. The point of e2e is to block any third party to to see your conversations by sniffing packets. Not to stop Meta themselves.

1) Many times qe had "liberal" governments trying to fix it: Alfonsin, De La Rua, Macri. Even the de facto dictatorship tried to open up the economy. All of them failed. 2) Argentina is not poor. It's a rich country and their

I'm sure he'll be successful on lowering inflation for a while. I just think his way of stopping it is short-term and it won't be enough to pave the way for a prosperous Argentinean economy. To me, the private sector, the hea

It's a nice story. I even wish it applied to all contexts. In the real world, we have to ponder monopolies, the export market, other, non-free, big economic bullies, trying to destroy competition through subsidized goods, etc.

That's after the sudden surge a few months ago. The problem the diet analogy is that people neither die nor sink into poverty after a few months of reduced caloric intake. It's not just "unpleasant", long running compani

Argentina hss a harsh reality: if it opens up its market and gets dedicated to work on the most profitable industry, you're basically dooming more than half of its population to starvation and poverty. There's a lot of sunken cost

Yes, but at what cost. The cost of living for food and general groceries has gone up to 700%. Some prices are even the same as those from Spain. However, the minimal wage there is of €1050 p/month, while our minimal wage is around U$S2

My bet is that the stigma comes from indians and third world people who associate it with low socioeconomic status. But it's worse in India, where being lower status means being a lesser human.
