Most people never create even one world-changing technology, Linus casually created two (Linux + Git).
And don’t downplay that he did swear about Microsoft and Nvidia!

I’d assume it’s the same for nuclear silos? Or, they didn’t do much damage?
I think the more creatures we discover down there, the greater pace science will advance. Unless we do the homo sapien thing and kill them all.

Under pre-ISAF taliban the literacy rate was about 15% and at the time of withdrawal it was almost 40%.
The biggest red flag of this post, to me, is the use of the word Afghani. Any time someone says it with an ‘i’ at the end, you know they don’t know what they are talking about. Afghani is a currency, Afghan is a person.
Correlation is not causation, right?

To be fair, a house with 200 sq. metres is sizeable and roomy. It must take her ages to walk from the toilet to the kitchen. What a waste of time!

Can’t he afford to fix them?

Ageing roof, repointing, mold, and the rest. But oh my god, the original fireplaces, the staircase, the split floors, and “that” feeling you get when you walk in to a house that welcomes you as you enter.
As a perfectionist, this warms my heart. Thank you Enya for teaching me that you don’t have to be great at what you do, but can still make a shitload of money from it.

Anything bad you say will be dismissed as a ‘smear’ campaign against that person because ‘they’ (big pharma, the millions of scientists who are all in on “it”) don’t want you to know and they’ll just shut off against you. Just take a step back from the dolt.
