My suggestions can help some people, but not everybody. Because everybody is different. Let's continue complaining instead then?

But I've worked in places like this with people who were deaf and people who had limps, and people with a ton of other problems. And hundreds of thousands of people who have families work in the merchant navy to support them, or in other similar work places.

Sometimes (almost all the time) trying to talk about things on HN feels like having to argue that it is indeed possible to fry an egg or boil a cup of coffee...



Well I don’t think anyone is browsing this thread because they need a solution to their own poverty.

So we’re talking about general solutions for the country at large, and solution that only works for a few means there’s still the problem of the rest of the poor to solve.


How do you know that? And how do you know that somebody reading here won't need a solution in the future? Or knows somebody who might?

But that was why I didn't want to write about it in the first place. People here don't take kindly to solutions, when it feels so good complaining about problems.
