Chinese do use iMessage, although not necessarily deliberately. SMS is very commonly used in China and when a iPhone user want to message to another, the default is to use iMessage instead of SMS. So I did have tens of native Chinese contac

I'm curious if Apple is complying with Chinese censorship with iMessage. As far as I know, at least it was usable in China without VPN in 2015.

I consider that is. Unless as most software used to do, show a popup to politely ask me, can it report the crash to vendor.

I agree to some extent, that's why no one put a password to the telnet based LXI SCPI command interface. But a weak password maybe useful sometimes, to prevent your coworker accidentally connect to the wrong equipment and mess up one&#

Most test equipments, ancient or recent, are not expecting their programming interfaces, let it be an analog voltage, GPIB, RS232, USB or LAN, exposed to the public internet and it would be a extremely stupid thing to do so. The maker of th

"lunzi"'s meaning is close to it's literal translation: wheel, as in Python Wheels and "reinventing wheels".

I'm a native Chinese speaker and this name does sound weird to me. I have never heard of 鸭屎香 (duck-shit flavour?) before reading this.

The ideal situation is there is a unified CJ(K) font that covers all the glyphs.

One can get a similar, extremely ugly effect if one is reading Japanese text rendered on a Chinese language system. Many kanjis in the Japanese text will default to the glyphs in the system Chinese font. However, the kanas as well as some k

Also beware of bad quality SMA connectors from cheap Chinese sources. They may have significant dimension error, and have the potential of destroying mating good ones.

The essential feature that Syncthing as a Dropbox replacement lacks is public sharing. Although requested by many users throughout the years, the maintainers never considered it seriously.

For low volume applications, hybrid integration is a less challenging way for integrating a laser with passive photonic integrated circuits. The idea is simply place a laser die and the passive die next to each other during packaging, and t

Modulating a LED at a high depth will certainly have the required visual effect, as the frequency response curves found in literature are practically flat from DC to tens of MHz. For obvious reason, most people are interested only in data c

I don't get it, LEDs can be trivially modulated to MHz, why nixies? April fool? I would imagine having a couple of FPGAs, toggling 7 segment LED displays can easily do the same thing.

EUV is already into soft X ray and behaves like X ray.

Timepix is not public but licensed to commercial vendors as far as I know. But anyway I appreciate they make such (a readout chip for) detectors available so we could benefit in one of our previous projects (not about particle physics).

tldr: The ATLAS Collaboration has measured the W boson mass and it's in agreement with the Standard Model. Unfortunately, no new physics yet and we can now forget about the previous excited reports.

You say Google is not banned, then try to open google.com through any Chinese ISP, can you get anything but connection timeout? Also check Google's transparency report. Which Chinese law didn't Google follow? Failure to implement

Any references on this? Googling didn't let me believe this. From my interpretation (maybe wrong) of Xilinx UG116, FPGAs are reliable.

Nitpicking: without a cavity/feedback mechanism, it's only an amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) source rather than a laser.

It's absurd that the party still insists using the word "elected" in English articles, do they want everyone to laugh at the "election"?

I should elaborate a bit more, spring festival is based on a lunar calendar, so it's date in Gregorian calendar will float. Last year it was February 1 and in 2021 it was February 12.

Chinese were celebrating the 2023 spring festival on January, there is little production and of course less exports. Look at the periodic drop in previous years. Please, look back after more data become available.

Well, although arguably not as bad as mainland China under Mao's rule. Taiwan didn't have any democracy back then (before late 1980s). And interestingly, the US was OK with Kuomintang's dictatorship.

As a native Chinese speaker, I know that many older and less educated people in China do write with errors or using some non-canonical simplified characters, but usually it's not a problem for us. In most cases, the meaning of the word

No. There just isn't. It's a shame there are so many wheels for artistic rendering ray tracing with amazing performance, but simply no one bothered to invert camera as sources and objects as detectors, add more geometry and a tiny
