It wasn't "American Exceptionalism" that made the U.S.A what it is, but an unprecedented leve of concerted investment by the state into science and technology over the past century. Let's see where this grand experiment leads us. Relevant HN post from earlier, where I elaborate on this issue further: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7321660 |
