YouthfulMarxism··on Apple’s new keyboard feature in iOS 15 is insult to Cantonese speaking community
Promoting uniform official language is a perfectly fine state policy with a tonn of benefits, including costs reduction, economic integration improvements, increased social and workforce mobility.

CCP crimes are countless, but existing of such policy is clearly not one of them.

Questions could and should be asked in regard to tools and apparatus used in such transition, for example repressions, violence and forced re-education. IF they were used.

We need to seriously discuss your use of a g-word. One moment, i need to crusade my kitchen to genocide a pancake or two.
YouthfulMarxism··on The lab-leak origin claim for Covid-19 is in the news, but it’s still fact-free
In all possibilities it was a major case of criminal ignorance and negligence towards major epidemic source by the chinese political and medical officiaries. Which resulted in multitrillion damages and hundreds of thousands of excess deaths at the scale of the whole planet.

And instead of transparency, investigation, apologies and reforms what we will get after another cup of nationalistic lies is Taiwan war.

Political situation has changed. Archenemy is not the orange man anymore, but the China. So, "fact checking" in liberal media (including facebook) got an update and now even more objective and incorruptible than ever.

Are you saying that crowd judgement and cancel culture is wrong? What if she was racist or worst of all crimes Trump supporter?

Interesting fact about Mrs. Elbakyan is that she was Putin and Crimea annexy supporter. Which she was aggressively bullied for in russian academia (which is majorly liberal) during 2017. She closed SciHub access from Russia whichafeter saying: "Boil in your shit by yourself".

She had a honor of a parasitic insect being called by her name not much longer after. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiogramma_elbakyanae

YouthfulMarxism··on Modern Javascript: Everything you missed over the last 10 years (2020)
First of all Typescript, is now more mainstream JS dialect than vanilla-js itself and, honestly, the only one i care about.

And i thought it's kind of obvious for anyone, that until *JS* proposals are staged far enough - Javascript won't have those features too. There is a good reason why TS waits for the stage 3.

I'm so disapointed by the committee. So many utterly useless or easily bootstrappable features and yet, no pattern matching and pipeline operator stage 3 proposals. 0 progress for so many years. Lack of those roadblocks Typescript implementations.

ReasonML and KotlinJS will faster become practical general purpose web languages than committee would start doing something usefull.

YouthfulMarxism··on Goodbye MongoDB, Hello PostgreSQL (2015)
A single point for Mongo over Postgre JsonB is WiredTiger is very good at compression. In times of Mongo:4.0 vs Postgre:10.5 it was like 20Gb vs 50Gb. Though could depend on documents structure. Not sure about current state. Querries were also somewhat faster in Mongo.
