Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Very good point, extreme poverty shows the biggest trend forward, while other thresholds do not show the same progress. That being said, poverty in general seems to be declining according to the graphs you’ve shown.

In no way does a mere positive trend imply “good job team, we fixed the world and we can quit now”. Poverty is still rampant, and we should do what we can to fix it, obviously.
