The problem is that it is becoming harder and harder to just use a VPN to the point where a lot of people no longer bother. There's value in information being easily accessible

Back when I lived in China, I used to think that having Google in China even with censorship was better than not having Google at all. But, this was also because back then, they did have a notice saying that some of the results had been cen

To be honest, given the state of the Japanese system[1], if I were in his position, I would escape and skip bail... I have lived in Japan and love the country but I would be really scared if for whatever reason I were to be suspected by the

I would tend to say that an experience abroad in fields like Arts is also extremely valuable and there are internationally recognized schools abroad. For example, the beaux arts in France or The Berlin University of the Arts. So, while I ag

People understand the purpose of it quite well. They just completely disagree with your analysis. First, the most environmental form of recycling is for an object to be reused as is. So, if any item is given to a recycling center, if the re

What I never understand about articles like this written from the perspective of Americans is that they don't seem to consider that there are other countries than the US? Why limit yourself to the US when education is much cheaper in o

If you are working for a single client and have such micro management that your work is subdivided into tiny tasks and feel that rejecting it would be an issue, then you are not really self employed, you are a remote worker... Normally the

What I've never understood is why not just create an other ranking that competes with the Shanghai ranking. I wish polytechnique or some other institution of high learning published their own ranking and marketed it as well as that ran

First, having lived in China in different cities and in Japan, the empty seat phenomenon is nowhere as pronounced in China as in Japan. In Japan, you sometimes end up seating next to an empty seat in a packed train, I've rarely seen th

I always go out of my way to buy outside of the App Store. Sometimes the app store version is crippled due to constraints from the app store so it just makes sense. Other times, I still do that because I want more of my money to go to the d

Macos used to not have a yearly schedule. New versions took the time they needed. I think it's actually a better model, it allows engineers the time to test and make sure things work. Having arbitrary deadlines just increases the amoun

Depends, a small protip, if you have an apple product that died because of water. Go to an apple reseller in a country without apple store. Most of the times they will turn a blind eye on the water damage and just repair it since they get p

I do believe that macos is not as stable, performant or well thought out as it used to be. There are also a few recurring bugs that really annoy me (search not working in Apple Mail forcing me to reindex for example) But, I think this artic

From what I remember when I was 14, besides the nudity, the game is still an actual sierra game with good brain wracking puzzles (a bit more unfair and rough than lucasart games) and goofiness... It pushed boundaries and the theme is not ne

That works well, but if you do ecommerce or a web app for which people write a lot of bots, then the traffic won't necessarily be that well distributed (mostly because users while run bots out of dedicated servers or such and will tend

Interestingly both dune and dune 2 were released around the same time and both are amazing. Dune 2 created the rts genre while Dune was a wonderful combination of adventure and strategy. For Dune, I'd recommend the CD version https:&#

DNS round robin has the disadvantage of not guaranteeing that the traffic will be equally distributed. This can be a problem if there's a lot of automated traffic. But, with that said, in term of price, it's unbeatable.

For a site like Gab, I always wondered if having a massive amount of users posting messages making fun of the alt right movement, painting neo nazies like the idiots they are and criticizing the site user base wouldn't have been a bet

I think most likely they are amalgamating Hong Kong and China like some people do on the thread here. And yes, indeed some Data Centers in China are a big source of spam and automated attack, but it just doesn't make sense to block an
