That’s exactly what is happening: Windows 10 "China Edition" or some moves from Apple to comply with Chinese regulations for example. Respecting local regulations is not a mind blowing fact. A foreign company cannot sell heroin in

Don’t understand the downvote you’re facing. Whatsapp is operating in France so it must comply with the ruling here. Moreover the fact that they hide from the CNIL the data they are sharing probably mean they do not comply to the regulation

You may want that but there is not clear line for a blurry and highly politically charged concept like sexism. A comment such as « my gf just cook an amazing cake, she’s awesome » could perfectly be labeled as sexist by some activist becaus

How can database vendors make benchmarking illegal? Saying "we don’t allow benchmarking" in their EULA don’t make it illegal if the clause is abusive. Maybe it can work in some juridictions but I don’t think it is enforceable worl

It’s not at the police station but you still have to register at the ward office when you’re moving to a new city. Also as a "fun" fact, residence cards features the logo of the ministry of justice. Just like if all foreigners wer

If I understand correctly, the guy downloaded a data set, train it and get happy because it performs over 95% on the training set from the data set. This is not interesting at all because the hard part is to actually segment and classify ch

Interesting read. Chinese characters and chinese character-like characters can be quickly hard to deal with as soon as you leave the BMP plan. The ids.txt file (Kanji database) is really a lifesaver in this case.

Ironically Hacker News is blocked (thru the host file) on my pc for this reason. I still browse it one my phone, but it is a more conscious action and it is less confortable, so I waste less time on it.

You still have to learn the underlying story platform and API, that’s not abstracted. Also choosing between Xamarin Forms and Xamarin Native for the UI (not compatible between them). Obscure errors sometimes. But from my (little) experience

This is still wrong. First, because English taken for itself is nowhere near a phonetic script. It uses a lot of graphemes to represent the phonemes of the language and there is no bijection between the two sets (as expected for a phonetic
