I don’t think it was killed, There are no upvotes or downvotes , It is just at bottom of the comment thread.
That being said SCMP might still have some people who are editorially independent now. But I don’t think They would want to push their luck too far. Considering Alibaba group can face consequences of same in Mainland
Can you rely on South China Morning Post (scmp.com) to be unbiased as their current owner is Chinese Alibaba Group ? Apart from mild criticisms, I don't think Alibaba group can afford to publish against Chinese government.
Lots of people here to defend Apple in-spite of their outright anti-consumer stance against right to repair. In this case they could have shown a warning with option to permanently choose to remove/ignore, Instead of scary permanent "service" Message.
Oh wow, how would we know that some corporate lobbyists or worse some government agency is not monitoring HN right now and propagating their agenda here in comment section.
How can we detect that and how can we trust anyone else ?
you are confusing between Kinect for XBox 360 and Kinect 2 that is Kinect for XBox one, Kinect 2 ( kinect for xbox one) uses time of flight. Original kinect and Kinect for xbox 360 are same and uses structured light sensor.
Payment sector specially in India is highly regulated, with even WhatsApp current application for UPI payment licence in Legal limbo because Facebook specially having bad name/luck with Regulators. Highly Doubtfull that current regulation will allow Cryptocurrency in any form as payment mechanism. Most that could be allowed would be glorified anti fraud Secure logger.
Are you in any way affiliated directly or indirectly with MailChimp ? Reason for my concern is that this is not a exemplary practice to do victim bashing either. Even if OP is "free" customer , He has some right to complaint. Companies usually don't provide "free" tier by goodness of there heart and have legitimate business plan to do so.
I think blame lies with Youtube team, for them not able to morderate their default homepage. I distinctly remember same crappy default youtube homepage before Jio also.
We should be very thankful with current Net Neutrality situation in India thanks to Facebook's ill conceived plan of Free Basics which led to Strict Net Neutrality Laws in India. This had prevented Platform lock for Jio's chat , movies etc platforms, which ironically is very beneficial to FB Messenger and Whatspp's growth. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_neutrality_in_India
I for one find clean slate tech approach adopted by Reliance Jio in India very inspiring. IPv6 support from start which saves it tons of money for buying IPv4 addresses , similar to their decision to adopt native 4G LTE Volte from start that helps it save tons of bandwidth on voice compared to Legacy 2G , 3G voice options.
Does anybody else worry about having Wall-E kind of situation, Commercial space launch being cheap, We might end up having lots of space junk. At least with the previous price point, this was less probable.
Not everyplace has Tap water available to fill your bottle. In many tourist locations it is very difficult to find Taps could be considered safe for consumption.
I think the logic that his work is unpublished itself is wrong, he published/posted his work for world to see in arXiv , He has very strong opinions about current scientific publishing status quo, hence did not go through usual route of submitting in journal, He did published/posted on arXiv. Who are we to decide that posting your work in Blog post , arXiv etc does not constitute published.
