"nice one hackernews, downvoting the most important question in this thread... " We're less than an hour in and the OP question is the top comment... I'm not sure what's so wrong to you about the HN community here?

256 bytes. Insane. Most x86 instructions are 2-3 bytes already (up to 15 in x64!), how much can you even tell the OS in so few words... That's some seriously clever wizardry, congrats.

WTF are you talking about? You are aware that you are comparing a ~300m country with a ~20m one, right? "It seems like the United States is about an order of magnitude worse". your own numbers prove you otherwise. And that's not even counti
