I dont see these as hard milestones that requires the amount of effort suggested by the article. To me, it all comes down to strict logical thinking. Take the last milestone of understanding tradeoffs as an example, if you are good at ident

The brutality and cruel enforcement is not a widespread problem at least in the eyes of general Chinese population. The only lawful enforcement for the one-child policy is a financial fine (which more and more people can afford now). Any

Just to make it clear, these types of enforcement are not norms. The law never suggested such enforcement. The law is that you get a financial fine if you have more than one child, that's it. It's actually against the law to forc

I found it very interesting that the second most popular Mooc of all time is a philosophy course. Although personally I like better the philosophy introduction offered by MIT: https://courses.edx.org/courses/MITx/2

Implementing a monad like structure without a monadic for loop syntax sugar tends to confuse people. It's hard to picture writing most operations as map or flatmap.

From the cons the author listed for typescript, this article is way too generous with this language. Like CoffeeScript it is just an intermediate solution to the problems JS has. We are still far away from inventing a good language for UI l

I am from China, I go to school alone since 6. Most other kids do that since 7. That was some decades ago. Now I live in U.S. it has become unthinkable to me, mostly because the lack of gun control and the number of gun owners who are so r

There might be less critical thinking but probably more than you think. The core Chinese culture is advocating avoiding conflicts, and the best way to achieve that to chinese is a hierarchical order. The boss determines what to do, the subo

I am curious what point are you trying to convey in regards to this article. The fact that PhD in the CS field is not so useful is the reason why more foreigners pursuing it? I am a bit confused.

I think you overestimate the intelligence of the authority in this particular case. I think this is more a case of collective stupidity than authority turning people to mindless sheep. What worried me is where is the engineering teacher he

It's not the copying that worries people, it's the lack of not-coping, i.e. innovations. iPod is not the first mp3 player, iPhone is not the first smart phone, but they were packed with innovative ideas that stood them out. We se

Not the same thing here. The rich people already pay their share in tax that supports public education that they don't benefit from. The people who go to public education don't pay anything more. Now the author is arguing that the

When public education needs more money, taxing private education to support them doesn't help education in the society as a whole. High education should not be taxed, period. It's investment towards more tax income in 3-4 years. I

I only spent 15 days, I did not feel that I am getting the same experience there every day, it's quite the contrary. For example, I wouldnt call the difference between tsukiji, asakusa, kabukicho and ginza slight variations.

The global panic might have a good reason, this is probably the first time China goes through a true financial crisis. Their ability to deal with such situation is by and large unknown to anyone.
