PeterL: mircea_popescu re:map of birthrates, any explanation for why thailand is so low? the other low places are japan and europe, which have been developed for a while, thailand seems an outlier
mircea_popescu: thailand is a pretty interesting case - back in the 90s it seemed very well positioned to become a tech superpower. then... fizzled, somehow. korea won.
PeterL: could also just be where they put the cutoff for the colors, thailand barely makes the bottom category, US and canada are barely into the next color
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller no, eventually birthrate -> .5 and we forgot this particular hittite empire ever existed, just like all the other ones.
mircea_popescu: not like it made anything that'd be remembered once it stops paying for the service.
