Oh, to have both the realization that everybody is a complete moron, and the urge to punch them because of it...

Well, the cyberpunk authors seem to have noticed.

Literal fascism.

You have a really odd definition of fascism.

I'm sorry, but outside of Singapore, do you have any single example?

Because well, "it worked this one time on the entire history of the world" isn't the flex you seem to think it is.

On the context of a node package, I'm pretty sure that "solution" is utterly worthless and doesn't come even close to targeting the same functionality the old code had.

But odds are the one place the library author used that function can be replaced by a completely different functionality that happens to use the suggestion.

There's nothing wrong with world, except for it being always overloaded by too many users.

The issue on the beginning was that all the instances were way too restrictive on worldview or goal. It makes sense to put communities on them, but it doesn't make sense to join them as users.

The 2 instances that were aimed at the general public, world and ee grew to be the 1st and 2nd largest ones...

Just because the core of his work is bad science, it doesn't mean he didn't get a lot of facts right.

And also, countries have a unsettling tendency of moving a full step in development when its people get mad enough and kill all of the oligarchy. It's not very clear to me if it's the only way to do some steps forward, but it also has a good chance of making a worse oligarchy and moving a step backward.

All from the first result in Duckduckgo. Mostly wikipedia, but I got "aqua fortis" on some dictionary.

I keep having to point it, because it's not obvious nor easy to notice: the prequels story is really, really good.

It will most probably die as an XVIII century country with a pile of juridical clutches and props.

Nope. They seem to have successfully moved into early 20th century politics already.
