I find it amazing that the president is so powerful that he can move tech companies all over America (the world probably) just by issuing a morning tweet.

They really need a good bottom-up example showing what Dark is and why it is different from ssh-ing into a production server and fiddle with some php-scripts. They write about feature flags, non-text code and a fully integrated environment.

The spy etf has better liquidity and (probably) lower costs.

It is outrageous that the eu is effectively blocking its citizens access to products like spyder snp500 etf which is a far cheaper and more liquid etf than what is offered on the European markets.

Sorry if it was unclear - i am referring to the payment part of WeChat. Has that ever been open to non-Chinese? Anyways it feels weird being the only who pays cash. Many places cannot provide change for a 100 yuan note (20 usd).

China should start by making WeChat available for non-Chinese - for example tourists traveling in China. Whether it runs on a blockchain is less important. Adoption and good user interface is what is important and that WeChat already has in

At least two problems with the java code. Concatenation of strings using the plus operator creates a new string and copies the content of the old, that pushes the complexity of the code from o(n) to o(n2) where n is the number of lines. Sec

Well. He did give a pretty good answer, didn't he? Not often you see someone with this level of writing representing the mainland China view of things.

This article adds good background. Also what the announcement seems to be about is a design for a chip yet to be put into production. How this will compare to arm and intel cpus in terms of cost and performance is unclear (to me).

So far is this thing actually from being produced? (In time and cost)

by chvid 7y ago
How does this compare to the Intel X86 CPUs in terms of power consumption, price and performance? Is this CPU a viable alternative for server and desktop computing?

Certainly in the short run ...

What makes you think US is not already intervening? People assume that an intervention would be ships and helicopters showing up with people dancing in the streets like in some sort of movie. Regime change does not look like that. It looks

Broad support by the people of Hong Kong. I think the parallel are the occupy protests in HK around 2014. In the beginning they had broad support but after about half a year that public support was gone and the police could clear remaining

Does these protest still have broad support? It seems obvious that the HK administration is simply drawing out time and hoping the daily troubles the demonstrators are creating in time will kill their cause.

Agreed. And let’s not forgot that China used to have an open internet. It was not until the xinjiang riots around 2009 that google and others got blocked.

Ok. But a big project like this has to gather its requirements somehow. Do google then have dialogue with a representative of the government? Bing and outlook is (or was at least around 2015) accessible and localized in mainland China. I wo

Does anyone know the exact requirements set by China on google for them to enter the Chinese market? I suppose adherence to Chinese law but what exactly? Support of law enforcement, censorship of specific sites, personal data stored in Chin

I can see you have got answers pointing in two completely different directions. I was stuck by this statistical from a recent article in SCMP: https://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy/article/3016657&#x2

As far as I can see it is quite easy. Though language and work culture may be a barrier.

I don’t know. But one should not be naive about it. The political machines have massive resources, strong connection to media and have nailed information campaigns down to an art. I noticed a similar thing about a year ago when Facebook was

Why would you make your own leftpad when someone already has spent the time and the energy perfecting and publishing leftpad?

Maybe don’t use windows for your build machine.

I was thinking it would work for the end-user a bit like cruise control. You drive you car to a highway that supports this form of driving. You press a button and you essentially let the authority of that highway drive you to your destinati

I am curious. Has anyone actually tried to redeem a tether? https://tether.to/fees/ It sure seems like they would like to just have people trade them on an exchange.

The UK has free public health care but maybe introducing a price for a doctors or hospital visit would help lessen this problem? One could introduce a fee of say 20 pound pr. visit. Something that is low enough that anyone in UK could pay i
