It makes a lot more sense when you consider that Apple's business model relies heavily on keeping customers locked into their ecosystem. Clearly a Mac user should also have an iPhone, or face the repurcussions for using a non-Apple dev

If you take a peek at the commit history [1], you'll see that the project started only last week with some very vague commit messages. The code is also quite messy and unoptimized. It's a cool project but not exactly industry-leve

That's essentially a blip in time for China's 5000 year history. They quite literally invented paper, printing, gunpowder, etc. It's not like their society randomly collapsed by itself, either, they had plenty of help with th

Small correction, a significant amount of Chinese migrants are from Fujian, which borders Guangdong. You can usually tell from the language spoken—Fujian descendants speak Hokkien while Guangdong descendants speak Cantonese, though it'

It's possible that they're only blocking the VPNs hosted outside of the country (and thus bypassing censorship). Of course, that would still impact international remote workers, but it's probably niche enough for the governme

They explicitly asked for a minimal, terminal-inspired email client for their Email Backend Engineer role. OP built a ton of infrastructure, created a generic web app that has no semblance of terminal inspiration as far as I can tell, and o
