Even more precisely the vast majority of Chinese people are unified. They are patriots who think China is the best country ever and all the rest are just jealous of their success. Downvote me if you want, but that’s certainly the look that

Hold up. Are you saying people are privileged (“world tipped in their favor”) just because they like going to the office (for whatever reason)?

I don’t use Twitter, so please remind me: did the site allow linking to articles or documents that Snowden stole[0]? And isn’t a hack just theft by other means? If Twitter benevolently censored linking to those docs then at least we have co

But he’s still being political when he bothers to look at numbers of non white employees or talks about “diversity in tue workplace”. All these are political agenda by another name.

The answer is on who you expect to innovate more: big corps that can afford to file, defend, and acquire patents or individual makers? America will win only when we can support both use cases.

We’re talking about paradigm shifts and not just incremental innovation (both are important, but there is a huge difference).

Exactly. The funny thing is that many Chinese science articles have been found to be completely fake. Quantity over quality. Doesn’t mean we can relax, but nothing about China can be judged by Western standards.

They don’t need a moped to “get out of the house”, meet their friends, or “see somewhere new”. They now have the internet for that.

For Pete’s sake! The concerns and themes expressed in Shakespeare are the same as what we often see in modern media. The human condition doesn’t change much over the centuries! Why do you think it’s so bad that we continue to examine things

The point is that many countries are claiming that China is abusing its designation of “developing country” and want that designation revoked. China, of course, is fighting that tooth and nail. The only reasons that China passes the sniff t

A lot of these issues can be solved with ML ala “deepfakes” Purchase a license to use an actor’s voice/likeness. Have them complete a training set. Now you have their digital doppleganger who can act almost any role required of them.

You’re going to write all that when BLM protest and Portland _riots_ are going on? Hundreds or thousands of people close up together breathing hard with or without masks?? Get outta here, you phony.

Nah, dude. The only reason you think there’s “no nuance” is because you haven’t invested the time to learn and research male fashion. And that’s OK! Fashion and being stylish is a hobby like that requires time, energy and money. Not everyon

And I absolutely love the extra care and attention. Dining out in other countries can be a complete hassle as you wait for the waiter to show up... whenever he feels like.

You are saying nurses, teachers and social workers have “low social prestige”? People worship the ground these folks walk on for their “selfless sacrifice” and what-not.

But this is not “pre crime”. Someone in those areas still has to break the law to be arrested. What you write has zero connection to reality.

You wrote a lot but pointed out none of the flaws of this tech. What’s so alarming about drawing a conclusion that more police resources need to be allocated to a place that has a history of criminal activity?

Wait, you actually want “America world police”? And who decides what is or is not democratic? In your world, what would you do against Saudi Arabia (I assume you’d see them as not democratic and thus not a real country)?

Given what you wrote, to me it sounds like the asker suspected React was the wrong tool for the job. Not every front-end required an all-out framework with its own weighty cd/ci pipeline. It’s possible the scope of the project was just

How on your mind is any of this a good thing? I earn money, I pay taxes, I save prudently. Now, when I die, the government decides it gets to tax that money AGAIN? Money that has already cleared of its tax burden and is mine? Why? Just beca

I worry more about media that tries to create a reality that fits their ideology. A bunch of companies whose brand identity is tied closely with politics jump ship and NYT tries to paint that into a movement. Pardon me when I’m skeptical, e

One is legal (whether you like it or not) the other is illegal. If you don’t like that, vote to have the law changed. No one gets to be a vigilante/looter without legal/social consequences.

So you want even longer wait times for an officer to respond to your complaint of a stolen car/bike or other “quality of life” crime? How are people thinking they will get better police service (or any police service) by reducing polic

Alpha vs Beta (as far as that concept is useful) is a question of behavior, attitude, and being able to love yourself; not T levels. Your comment betrays that you have a very shallow understanding of these topics. I encourage you to do some

Do you feel bad for people who lost their job because of COVID? What dummies! They should have picked a pandemic-proof job or just “learned to code”! If you do feel bad for them, then your statement just exposes your own bias and hypocrisy,

It’s not wealth if you are still paying off a mortgage on the rental unit. Even if you owed the rental unit outright the “it’s wealth” argument is foolish. What’s the point? Sell your only source of income and live off the money until you b
