Revolution is always, in every example, a doorway for powerhungry authoritarians to swoop in.

The fact that Haitians were eventually much better off than as slaves doesn’t change that.

Slavery finished, replaced with forced labour and serfdom? That Haiti?

Mineis also base 16 and goes to 10. Which one is louder?

Sales executive. Paid more than engineers, is substantially dumber.

Every time i hear about SpaceX, I wonder how much further along we’d be if we had proper taxes and gave the money to NASA/ESA. Even if the answer is “about the same” then at least they treat their engineers well.
