So how are we supposed to discuss content if we can’t read it? Are you saying it is compulsory to buy a WSJ subscription to use HN?

I doubt turning China into the next North Korea will help it develop into a modern democracy.

It is great to see a rumour posted on NGA, then badly translated and posted onto reddit and now reposted on some other messageboard with some editorialising and now reported as fact on HN.

You gotta stop selectively enforcing moderation. The person who said China has concentration camps and is now somehow racist isn’t being inflammatory? A few threads back when the Christian missionary got killed by the natives the entire com

I think internment camps is a more apt description without invoking some implicit notion of genocide in this case.

Sure but concentration camp does not have the same historic meaning that any more the Swastika has its historic meaning in the Western world. They may be concentration camps by their old definition but the using the word immediately draws t

The meaning the words change with context. Much like the way the Swastika is no longer recognised in the western world as a Hindu peace symbol. My point is that the modern usage of concentration camp is the extermination camps of Nazi Germa

Sorry those camps are miserable but they aren’t concentration camps. The word concentration camp has a specific connotation with the extermination camps build to kill Jews and other undesirable under Nazi Germany i.e. genocide. To conflate

It is even simpler, he literally just made a “will somebody please think of the children” argument. Which is so that inane it doesn’t even need a serious reply.

Did he actually need to download all of their source code to prove the vulnerability though? It seemed that he could have simply stopped when he extracted ref HEAD. It is this extra exploitation that gets researchers into trouble.

How is calling them murderous savages racist? It makes no generalisations of their race. Even if one interperts it as a generalisation of their race, how is it prejudice or discrimination when it is an accurate description (given the previo

I don’t see how a single homeless child is comparable. This is more like justifying North Korea’s methods because the poor country is just trying to survive. The victim should have known they were murderous savages but gave them the benefit

I didn’t know that death was a proportational or appropiate sentence for this crime. And I am willing to bet that whatever Indian law he violated it wasn’t a capital offence.

Telegram isn't E2E encrypted by default. You need to choose an "encrypted" chat. They have been criticised over this for many years now.
