I just came across this podcast in the last week after wondering what ever happened to the FARC and AUC (right wing death squads) after the peace deal. How did things end up playing out relative compared to what was expected and feared at the time.
It’s a pretty batshit story that focuses on what became of the right wing death squads (they run the start of the cocaine supply chain it turns out among many other things) that’s extremely well researched and has amazing access. A strong recommendation from me https://insightcrime.org/audio-from-the-ground-up/the-shadow...
Because a bunch of people have for inexplicable reasons tied their meaningful parts of their self identity to Elon and his grievance filled simplistic worldview and they get very very upset when flaws in it are pointed out and they respond by trying to make sure nobody can publicly criticise it.
The balance of power hasn’t made that a logical argument for a long time now.
Compare and contrast say the provisional IRA fighting the Brits to a stalemate in Northern Ireland for 30 years from the 70s-90s and then look at a modern equivalent in Palestine. The idea of a “well trained militia” doesn’t work when they can bomb you from the skies.
I mostly use it in a non Flutter context and yes, incredibly strong recommendation from me there too. It’s my new default language for the past few years for a reason.
I’ve genuinely never once met an Australian who wouldn’t laugh in your face if you were to read that statement to them and ask if they would prefer to live in the US.
I know several and we seem to agree that both countries are run by authoritarian jackasses, it isn't a pissing contest. I didn't say anything about the US being a better place to live, that's an argument you've brought yourself.

It's an informative post about new tech, that fits pretty well here of all places.
Why would you want the author to write about something else to validate the post? That would be an appeal to authority, which is the complete opposite of what the Hacker Manifesto has always been about in terms of ethos, goals, etc.
