I loved the Netflix documentary. So much history about the man himself, about soccer (fútbol / futbol), and about Brazil

Where did you get the 'ideal' 29 number from?

The expected (in statistical sense) number of rotations needed is 32 but it could be as low as 24.

Now that I think it better that means the shuffle was fixed.

I am sorry, but what is the problem? So somebody already pays crazy taxes in their home country, then pays rent in another country (including taxes), sales taxes and likely spends much more than locals in the foreign economy. The foreign taxman gets a wind of possible more money, starts taxing those folks on top of what they already pay and they just move out, spread the word, weakening the economy further. If they overstay 180 days or whatever is needed for a tax domicile then yeah, they should pay taxes there, but with the current tax regimes that might not be technically possible. What prevents folks to stay 179 days in Mexico and 179 days in Costa Rica?

' What prevents folks to stay 179 days in Mexico and 179 days in Costa Rica?'

costa rica visa is 90 days maximum for starters

'expats' are very entitled; they want all the conveniences of a 'third world country' (they will call it 'shithole' when their n-th consecutive entry is denied) they want all the cheap rent;services;food ; they want to use the roads; sidewalks; beaches; national parks; police; emergency services but god forbid you ask them to pay income taxes as a local if they are going to work from their host country ' it is preposterous; i already paid 10% vat on my 2 dollar frapuccino'

Same, but I think people generally over-estimate how much different from average they are. (It's from the webcam's pov anyway) Usually I also don't like interactions with the webcam but this was interesting enough.

Oh give over. Norse gods are european, and with greek, roman and egyption gods, we've had thousands of years awareness & contact with those cultures.

> who were considered inferior by the europeans who "conquered" them

Anyone who wasn't a catholic was probably considered subhuman by the truly appalling conquistadors

> indios are supposed to be stupid and ignorant

news to me.

Who is "We" here? Because I would easily bet this is not the case for most of the population in the world

Thanks God for the superior and enlightened British colonizers,you can see the different policies in current native populations in the US compared to the Spanish-ravaged south.

> news to me.

Spoken like one who has not spent 1 min with people with Native-American ancestors.
