A bit hard to find open, unbiased, and independent information about a country that forcibly suppresses anything negative about itself, isn't it? Jack Ma criticized the government and suddenly disappeared for years losing his position

All companies in China are under control of the CCP so it's the same thing. The "West" isn't an authoritarian state so this might be why people think of it like this.

Yes, they look bad. They look like products that were designed by passionless bean counter MBA types that create products off a spec sheet with zero regard for the end user. It’s a 1.2” thick lump of plastic (somehow heavier than an all met

Your only relationship to the company is via the goods and services it sells to you. If you buy their products, you like the company and their practices. The product is the culmination of all of their practices.

Android problem that doesn’t exist on iOS because Apple keeps a leash on them. Walled garden is nice like that.

The lowest end of the offerings from 2 generations ago? Yeah.

It’s also a AAA game, it’s just running on a potato and looks the part. It would be a better game if it was developed for hardware from this decade.

One is the best, most reliable video serving platform on the planet and the other is a scriptkiddie’s project that evidently doesn’t even work and he’s so salty about it that he had to make a post.

Ad blockers are free. They’re made available to be downloaded for free. It is not at all our responsibility to make their business model work. Open source developers are entitled.

Incoming international SMS is free for US carriers too. I use it all the time to receive one time codes.

He might be “non-violent” but he harmed more people collectively than multiple violent people could. If I steal your entire wealth and your family ends up on the street, it doesn’t matter that I wasn’t violent. Hope he gets what he deserves

Good. Maybe we shouldn’t treat a billionaire fraudster with kiddie gloves.

Good, let them be frustrated. These are the same people that will make their employees work nights and weekends for a median salary and equity that isn’t worth the paper it’s written on for years only to go under or cash out in an event tha

Pointless article. No one that calls stocks “expensive” is worth listening to.

You’re right, Dallas is the final boss of terrible infrastructure design but if Texans can figure it out, anyone can, especially Waymo.

How is it a better example? A better example to fit your narrative you mean. Clearly parental support is not directly correlated with high birth rates.

This comment is interesting because these are the same countries that are often used to show how “backwards” the US is due to their comparatively strong safety nets, etc. I guess when it comes to Europe, people can only pick and choose the

Exactly. As soon as immigration increased, crime and disorder increased. It's easy to maintain utopia when everyone looks and behaves exactly like you.

>So good to hire from. Nothing you said supports this statement. This comment pretty much explains why most roles are not at risk of being outsourced: it’s a pain in the ass to deal with.

You and anyone reading this that thinks like this person: I implore you to talk to as many people as you can outside of the industry. Ask them about their job. Ask them about their perks and flexibility and how they're treated by their

>employees in other regions didn't get the same terms Yep, that's what happens when you have labor laws that dictate the terms. It cuts both ways.
