The LA riots weren’t “thugs looting stores”. It was an oppressed minority rising up against decades of racial oppression.

You’re right, a newspaper owned by a rich capitalist will be much less biased.

What has Xi done that you feel is in short-term interests?

What exactly are you arguing here?

Also, how do they move if their muscles have rotted away and they have no functioning circulatory system?

Define “killed”. Huawei seems to be around last I checked.

Also, China has explicitly stated that want HK and Macau to join the same system as the rest of China.

It’s just a matter of time.

So why exactly would the Chinese care if it was revealed that Australian soldiers were committing atrocities?

It’s unclear what your connection is here.

Or that a lot of “successful” businesspeople are swindlers.

I think this explains it better: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_(software)

That doesn’t make any sense. They could make it as insecure as they wanted without having to write a brand new OS.

Fine the company that purchased it if they use the data in violation of existing contracts.

Care to share those reasons?

Because Australia, for example, decided to ban Huawei in a closed door national security meeting.

You’re kidding, right? It’s supposed to be a simple explanation.

Which part isn’t true?

You could say the same thing about JavaScript, Python and PHP discovering typing.

The best languages borrow from each other.

You can use source maps to debug it

I believe RDS supports this: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/USER_...

An app can control which HTTP library it’s using and even bypass the built in one on the mobile device. That’s not possible in the case of TCP.

So no, it’s not the same.

Another issue they mention in the article is middleboxes, which basically will never be upgraded, and will never support new TCP features.

The article mentions gives an example of why it’s difficult to improve TCP further.

TCP Fast Open was standardized 8 years ago and is barely used. This is because updating TCP requires kernel updates, which just isn’t going to happen on most mobile devices.

Thus, moving the protocol to userspace makes a lot of sense.

That freedom of thought is free insomuch that it conforms with the dominant ideology.

Many states have bans against people serving in government jobs if they are communists. How is that free?

If we are individualistic, then why do we organize ourselves into communities instead of living as lone wolves?

The truth is that humans are social creatures that prefer the company and support of other humans. The way we spread around the globe as hunter gatherers was through cooperation and mutual support. A lone wolf cannot support themselves if they are hurt, or sick, or lack a skill, or simply didn’t save enough food in hard times. But a community can.

So, I don’t think our nature is individualistic so much as capitalism is individualistic.

Because everyone is just flourishing under the US world order.

The donuts aren’t even edible anymore

Not in developing countries where not everyone has a laptop.

I don’t think the government should be in the lottery business.

I love how it's more important to have high economic growth than to pay people a living wage.

What exactly is the alternative that everyone here is suggesting? Lower taxes and the growth will somehow give these people more money? Really? No. It may increase growth, but that money will go to the people on top and the people on the bottom will be exactly where they were.

At least in this case, the money is redistributed to people who need it.

Exactly.

From the wording of the email, it sounds like his previous ventures might have been doing something shady and those accounts are linked to the startup account.

Just seems like inevitably people would figure it out.

I think if getting the SDK was enough to crack the copy protection, it would’ve happened eventually.

The key seemed to be the descrambler.

Why on earth did they scramble the executable in a deterministic way?
