You could be more specific about the nature of your product. The wording is confusing. If you want to build a China-only consumer product from scratch this is likely impossible as a foreign entity. Some specific industries will be laxer. Bu

This is very little actually, this is what I take on non-painful days. When it hurts it's 800mg every 4-6 hours (up to 3200mg daily) combined with either 500mg or 1g acetaminophen depending on severity. Usually 1 or two rounds are enou

And thinking of this given how common the problem of permissiveness towards lying and fraud in China is, I guess even as a foreigner you could play this game and get away with it. So there doesn't even have to be the most primitive nat

Can't stress enough how broken the Chinese judiciary is. You'd think the bias has to do mostly with big cases involving huge corporations. Unfortunately I learned first hand how crooked the system is. The laws don't matter wh

Was skeptical at $250, even more skeptical now at $360. It's priced like a technology company in a business that's anything but. I find the concept of them being an automotive Apple interesting, but think it's easier to sell

Server, web, and 2x mobile is a very tough requirement to meet. If it's just CRUD stuff I'd settle on ReactNative for mobile and use either clojure or js (both have the same reach in this case, but arguably clojure gives you a mor

Won't be applying after they set up shop in China. For both political/moral and "tech" reasons.

Background: you might have heard about Airbnb's recent decision to ban Jews in Judea and Samaria from listing on the service. Plenty of people concerned with antisemitism around the world have already taken steps to protest this move.

Having tracked opens on these my experience is almost all click thru, a large portion responds. Just keep it short and clear and they'll take a look.

Military spending around the western world was in line with what we have today (single digit %) before Nazis started the arms race. This sense of increased morality was also present around WW2. German jew hatred was never a secret, yet few

So they mined crypto, installed backdoors, accessed camera footage... and the story is generally positive and defensive of them[0]. This clearly goes beyond "just a prank" and depending on the severity ranges from very irresponsib

You're probably not getting a lot of feedback because you can't see anything without giving your email. Anyways, if you're in the EU you could build a sizeable business helping people to get funds. Can easily charge a few k $

This article displays pretty much all that is wrong with the reporting on this. A lot of talk about vaguely related sensational commentary, very little on the practical significance (if any).

Of which almost all is HFT. And by definition HFT has to be fully automated. I'm not sure if there's any data on the kind of algorithmic trading that the article talks about.

The big problem is at these numbers they'll still need to do a lot of vetting. And in the current revenue-loving funding climate people who'll seem good enough to them can probably get a better deal elsewhere (regardless of what h

When you see weird syntax I suggest doing FullForm[Hold[whatever]] which is kind of like doing quote and macroexpand in a Lisp. f[#u, #v, #u] &[<|"u" -> x, "v" -> y|>] // Hold // F

That's actually why I'm pretty bullish on WASM. It could become everything Java/JVM has ever wanted to be. Almost inevitably JS will have the best interop, with the great trend for javascriptization of everything WASM could f
