Property rights still exist but since it only became a concept about 80 years ago lots of property still belongs to the government and they can generally give you something worth more than your current property.

Basically it is cheaper for the government to enforce and needs fewer people to oversee. Also it doesn't apply to small companies only large companies.

You often don't have to bribe people. Just talk and explain the situation. Laws are often strict but loosely enforced unless it is a priority.

Optional by law. You often have to go out of your way to get the tax invoice. It is mainly for business rather than individuals. As for freedom there are fewer regulations on individuals. It isn't really possible to understand until yo

If it is a business expenses then to get reimbursed from work you need a tax invoice. For personal sales you don't need one and generally don't bother getting one.

I'm living in China at the moment. Feel free to ask any questions. Here are some points that you might find interesting: 1. There is an income tax but there is no income tax return. If you pay too much you don't get anything back.

Be aware that China doesn't have a national police check or a credit check system either private or public. Imagine trying to rent a house or get a loan without a credit check or police check. The social credit system is basically a po

Most local delivery is done using scooters (cheep) not cars(expensive). There is so much online shopping that distribution centers are roughly every 10km so you go back to base get a load and a new battery. Same for food. The difference is

I live in Shanghai and already have an electric vehicle ... it just isn't a car. I would estimate that almost 20% of the population already has electric scooters. That being said I doubt they will get rid of them because that isn'

I know there is mould in my house. We do three things to deal with it: 1. Air Filter (more for pollution but it helps with mould) 2. Dehumidifier which we leave on 24/7 basically for the mould. This is the big one. 3. Wash any mould wi

Have a look at Godot. I'm looking forward to 3.1 (lazy typing) and planning on using it to teach programming. This will be my first time so we'll see how it goes. But it is cross platform, small, has everything built in and can be

Been playing with Godot since version 3 came out this year. It is a massive update but it is worth being aware that it doesn't feel complete. It was released because it is good enough to get people started on projects and the port them

I'm still on the fence if it is superior governance (corruption is common). Although the same could be said of the USA's economy. Most of the growth in the USA is just random luck from the end of world war 2 and then riding the wa

No it isn't actually true. Roughly 80% of Chinese people are happy with the direction the country is going vs 40% in the USA. Most people don't care about censorship and the ones that do can get around it. From their point of view

Be aware that for a number of cultures "burnt offerings" were more like "roast offerings". They often eat the cooked meat. This is one of the ways that the priests got food.

Virtually no Chinese people have credit cards. Everything is prepaid apart from business loans, cars and house loans.

Have you tried Amazon outside of the USA? It sucks. In the UK I've been told it is ok. In Australia, Thailand and China it is not a great experience. In China Tmall is an amazing experience. In their home markets they both seem to be e

We already have some. I know the Arduino CPU is open source (slow) and there are open source MIPS CPUs but again they are slower than ARM and X86 CPUs. The problem is people don't want slow CPUs.

There basically is. Meetup.com does what you are looking for. People without any common interests are boring to spend time with. You need at least something in common. I move all the time and every time I move to a new city I try to find a

You missed the important factor... "to get help". The monster would run then find bigger monsters and all of them would come back to kill you. Often killing every low-level player in the area.

It depends on where you are but if you are in a hot country you may have been able to fix your network issues with a $5 laptop cooler. A lot of the wireless routers do not have enough cooling for hot environments. My cheap hack that usually

That is almost exactly how it works in Australia. You can either rank the vote manually or vote for a party and they get to pick how the vote is ranked between all the candidates.

I don't know about other programmers but I got out of the game. I still program for myself but I got sick of people asking me for miracles. I was to make them happen but it drained me every time and was consuming my life. The other programm

If you are worried about fact checking you could do ask two different people to enter the same data. If both people enter the same data then there is a higher chance that it is correct.

As others have said it depends on what your site is about. If your site already exists there isn't much you can do but if you are planning to create a site then you can find out what the CPM average is by using Google Adword tools to find o

I may be wrong but I'm fairly sure that /ab+/ would not match the string "abc". I might just be using a different library but /ab+/ would match "ab", "abb", "abbb", etc. The plus means one of more of the previous character. /ab?/ would matc

I'll add my 2 cents :-) A lot of it has to do with historical reasons which have reinforced themselves over time. Here are some of the early differences: * MySQL had an ungly way to allow users to only see their tables. While it wasn't grea
