You know I used to question why on earth would Trump want to "build a wall". But I think your comment (along with the previous comments) somehow made a good justification for it. Anyway, it is quite apparent that we have fundament

Of course I respect your opinions. I am just giving a thought experiment to introduce a different perspective and way of thinking. And I am more than happy to learn that you would re-consider your position given such hypothetical situation.

Of course they should be allowed to do so. That would eradicate drug trafficking and cross-border terrorism. I would say the benefit is too good, weighing against privacy.

You can already "download guns". http://time.com/5344265/3d-printed-guns-legal/ I would be surprised if that's not possible for drugs or explosives in 5-10 years. Edit: Looks like they are already p

I find this cloud argument rather weak. So you have two ways getting illegal contents into a country. Instead of preventing both measures (which is what governments are trying to do [1]), you are suggesting ignoring one of the ways because

Let me ask you this hypothetical question instead: What if we have a "physical encryption" technology that allows encrypting physical objects so that X-ray scanners, drug detecting methods or metal detectors cannot see through the

To be very honest, I find the methodology very similar to what drug trafficker would do to hide their drugs. And I don't think this method will end well for all parties either way. If it works, customs officers cannot find actual illeg

Author here. Some background: I started this blog focused on tech (and other things) in China due to frustration over lack of more holistic coverage of China by various news media, as well as the positive support shown in this comment: htt

Coffee is free in the same way Facebook and Google services are free. Honestly I would expect more services like this to come out, given how successful Facebook and Google managed to become.

Actually there is Wechat's subscription accounts, which is for the more in-depth analysis and long posts. So it's more of a market segmentation strategy I would say. Sort of similar to how Instagram and New Yorker work in US. You

1. Korea is much more homogeneous than China. China has a wide diversity of ethnicities. (Before you downvote, check Wikipedia first) 2. China doesn't "ban foreign internet/social media". LinkedIn is in China, so is Bing

Sorry to sound harsh. Maybe it's time to burst out of the English/US bubble and look at what's happening around other parts of the world. Come to think of it, maybe I should start a blog focused on covering tech in China. Edi

Now that you ask this, I have a similar question on my mind. Why are there so much news about China in US and UK?

I don't understand, the piece looks like it promises to address all the problems highlighted in the past few days in Chrome 70. Why are you saying it is a PR piece?

This works if your machine learning is just for data analytics purposes. The article somehow completely ignores integration with other services to query or update the model, which requires some API to be hosted on a static ip or domain, as

Probably a silly idea, but I wonder if the cube will maintain zero net entropy through this self-solving process.

Yes. I'm guilty of this quite often. And probably in this case too. That's why I need constant reminders like your comment. Do you know the article beforehand or you discovered it through my profile?

> Do you think an app like Photoshop or 3DSMax uses a react like framework on top of whatever C++ GUI they are using? Yes I think so. Why else would they require 1GB of space to install them and specific hardware to run them efficiently?

We are no longer just trying to toggle a modal or show a popup. The requirement for frontend has changed dramatically and now we need to handle entire UI flow, interactivity, data synchronization, and even some business logic like filtering
