Or the B plot in Darmok. I wish it would have been all Picard and Dathon.
Because tech can be easily turned into a remote job. Tech jobs are doing great in countries with low wages. I live in Portugal and all the software engineers I know work remotely for some non Portuguese tech company. It's good for them because they become some of the highest earners in the country straight out of uni and it's good for the companies that hire them for almost half what they would pay an American, German or Israeli.
It's rare to see a "yes, u" instead of a "no, u".
It was just a joke, I was hoping someone else would be able to turn it into something with meaning.
My favorite sin is Lust. My favorite virtue is Chastity.
As long as Venezuelans keep blaming the US for Venezuela's problems instead of looking inward, especially to their own corrupt government, things won't get better for them.
Using the US as an external enemy is great for holding onto power but it doesn't improve people's lives. Transparency, democracy and accountability improve people's lives. These are things most of Europe have and Venezuela does not. Venezuela has vastly different policies from center-left European countries and I'd know because I live in one.
You don't have to defend China or Cuba because I don't want to attack them. I wish Venezuela would be like China or Cuba. At least my family wouldn't go without power, starve or die needlessly.
Maduro has to go, and chavistas need to stop blaming everyone but the government for their problems. But I suspect even after everyone has left and only chavistas remain, they'll still blame someone else. Don't encourage them.
The flu is also going strong, but people aren't saying it still feels like 1918. I don't know the definition of COVID-19 becoming endemic but it certainly feels like it has become that.
And any reference I hear to it is no more common or strange than a reference to the flu or some other common illness.
That's a better interpretation, although I felt those scenes were done much better in the Inner Light.
