why can't I upvote the story? Also this posting must be burried 100 pages down. It's non-existant. So if I understand the discourse, anything critical of (His You-Know-Whoness) get's automatically down ranked and flagged?
This is the error in your logic. You can't draw any general conclusion from one post. In fact there have been zillions of major threads critical about Musk and if you take a little time to use HN Search you'll find them. If you don't want to do that, there are dozens listed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43227619.
I call this the "nobody goes there anymore it's too crowded" theory of HN. How can the very most covered topic still feel like it's being completely suppressed? Kind of weird no?

Thank you making note of this. The Guyanese I know have an oral history of being decieved and compelled. They were tricked into getting on board a boat and once there not allowed to leave. They were heart broken that their families did not know what happened to them. The return to India was offered later as reparation. But by then they had built entire lives and had new families of their own. The British did not call it slavery because slavery was outlawed by this time.
The author's heavy reliance on a historical narative authored by the U.S. military probably contributed to the rather sanitized recounting of the role Britain had in imigrating 286,000 Indians to Guyana.
I am curious to know if anyone else here shares this history in their family.
The best measure of productivity for a software implementation team is the quality of the product as measured by latent defects and technical debt. The team that remains to support the system will get to spend some or all of their time dealing with these. For a year or a few years or in perpetuity. Their productivity is directly related to how much time they spend unburdening themselves from that hidden cost.
