It's outrage-porn peddled as world news by the BCC, plain and simple. The tell-tale sign is that they didn’t bother to get both sides of the story. There are videos of the incident readily available on Youtube [1] which show what exact

The intro blog [1] mentioned in my other comment gives a detailed run-down of differences between the two. Not sure it can be summarized any more succinctly so I'll just paste an excerpt here: "NATS Streaming provides a similar l

It looks like Liftbridge occupies a nice little niche between full-blown, durable Kafka and lightweight, ephemeral NATS. Additional reading: https://bravenewgeek.com/introducing-liftbridge-lightweight-...

That’s like me taking your wallet, but still offering to let you use your debit card once in a while. At the end of the day, it's a colonizer dictating the terms of governance over territory obtained through coercive means.

This is my take on mainland sentiment also. If it comes down to HK being torn apart by some group, the CCP would rather that group be the HKers themselves than the PLA. HK is sufficiently culturally, politically and geographically insulated

I'm glad you know the history there. It's definitely more convoluted than most people think. > nothing in history has shown that China is any better at colonizing lands than the west I agree - I guess historically speaking, Chi

If I understand the point you’re trying to make correctly, you’re likening China’s claim to Xinjiang to that of the historical colonial powers? Because if we’re going to go down that road, I have to warn you that the Xinjiang story is not n

Chinese domestic media is for the most part trash and it's well understood that it conveys the views of the ruling political class. It has never even pretended to be an unbiased source of information. As far as the Chinese domestic med

I don’t disagree with you that the two can coexist. I’m saying the mainstream publications have skewed most people’s perception of Xinjiang so far out of the realm of reality that they would likely be absolutely shocked if they ever actuall
