> It is yours to provide evidence of your claims, not mine.
This is a common weird mistake people make on HN - I'm not publishing a paper so, no I don't. Really there's minimal rules of engagement here. You could say you think I'm wrong, which I'd be curious to hear why.
It's more productive to first discuss things casually, and then if there's specific disagreements to dig in. If you disagree with my statement, please tell me which countries you think specifically I'm more likely wrong about. You don't need to cite anything, either do I. If we actually do disagree, then we can go off and do our own research, or if we're really motivated bring it back here.
But there's no burden for anything, and it's actually better in many cases to first chat before we dig in and try and out-cite each other.
You have now spent three comments without any support for your claim. This is not a real-time conversation where casual discussion allows for quick examination of statements. Your time would have been better spent providing a link.
I don’t think that this thread is worth any more spent energy from either of us.
Agreed. All my comments moved things forward, I didn't get that back from you.

Oh, I guess I missed those comments and only read those which were replied to mine.
