Having 5+ companies each pouring billions into trying to make this technology a reality separately is ridiculous. All these companies should come together and work on a standardized single solution that can be shared between them. It will c

AMP has totally ruined the internet for desktop users. ~90% of AMP sites don't even provide a link to the full desktop version of the page (unless you want to dig through the source code of the page, but even then it is hit and miss),

447 comments here and not one questioning how this "mysteriously noisy galaxy" ended up being closer to us than Pluto.. (article says this galaxy is "3 billion miles away", Pluto is 4.67 billion miles from Earth).

Except that doesn't put a physical link in the document. Why should I have to dig into the source code of the page just to find the link to the normal page?

AMP is terrible and it is ruining the web for desktop users. I frequently get linked to AMP pages while on my desktop, and have never come across one that provides a link to the non-AMP version of the page and often the URL to the non-AMP v

This is a really stupid move. There are plenty of instances where websites do not need to use HTTPS, like simple static websites for small businesses that do not collect personal user information. This is going to cause a lot of confusion a

Japan, China, and Korea are all heavily investing in Vietnam as well. In HCMC, Japan is building the first of nine rapid transit metro lines in the city, and in Hanoi China is doing the same.

This is BS. I lived in Vietnam for years, there are plenty of language schools where foreigners can go to learn Vietnamese. I've never heard of anyone needing a license to teach Vietnamese. There are even volunteer groups in HCMC for t

up to 12% of internet users still use IE11, and even more if you count lower versions. It will take them about a decade to upgrade to a "modern browser". There are still large companies who want browser compatibility down to IE 8.

cool, can't wait to use these in 10 years when browser compatabilty catches up.

Chinese tour groups are notorious for disrespecting and/or destroying everything they come in contact with. I've had to personally deal with them in several countries and it is never a pleasant experience.

In my experience in searching for a job, companies invite for 3 interviews and a coding test, then decide the position isn't clearly defined, so they restart the entire process and ask you to re-apply. Then you go through 3 more interv

Everyone is up in arms about female discrimination, when really it is the lower-class men who are discriminated against the most.

Then you are just enabling that process to continue. You are subsidizing their wages and making it seem ok for their employer to pay them peanuts. I don't tip anyone and tipping is not a common practice where I live. In fact, most peop

React is such BS. Its sole purpose for existing is to make simple tasks unnecessarily complicated.

>Thank you for your honest replay. Those prices are just for short stays of 2 days to 1 week I realize that. The examples of better places I found were for daily rentals, the most expensive option. I bet if I were to look at similar plac

Just look on the local craigslist, expat facebook groups, or other expat forums for the area you are looking to stay. There are usually plenty of expats looking to fill a room in their share-houses.

If you are looking to live with "like-minded" people, it does not take much effort to organize a shared-house rental. I've been living around Asia for the past few years, and have lived in mansions with up to 5 other expats (

lol, what a ripoff. They claim they are "just covering costs" and the fee is more like a donation.. I just did 5 minutes of research and you can rent a nice 45 sq. m. 1-bedroom apartment on a daily basis, in a more central locatio

No company is going to pay someone for an interview project assignment when they know they could easily make candidates jump through hoops for free.
