Just some context on Simplified Chinese, the origin of Simplified Chinese came before the communist years and was mainly aimed at modernizing the Chinese written language and making it easy to learn for the general population as the many strokes to write a character in Traditional Chinese was making it hard to spread knowledge and increase literacy rates among the poorer and rural populations in China.

In Reactjs, the Ant Design library is built and maintained by a Chinese company called Ant Financial: https://ant.design/ I believe they're the second most popular React UI library on Github by stars

I believe the Chinese web world is pretty big on using Vue.js, Golang and React from what the top Chinese tech companies talk about in their blogs

Also I can read Simplified Chinese and the most popular Github repos in Chinese seem to be individual blogs, tech interview help and like frontend/backend guides. Github seems to be almost used as a content-based social network by Chinese users based around blogs and tech help

Watched a lot of your youtube videos, really great help :)

Curious about this: dmackenzie/ipcurriculum

Whats the link to it? Google search doesn't bring anything up

Fixed now, much thanks

Think Kite is down, trying to download but getting service unavailable when I open up this page: https://alpha.kite.com/release/dls/mac/current

Its because the guys who made this are actually a visual novel engine development group

Thanks maxwell for the answer! Really appreciate it, apologies for asking more but how did you guys handle customer browsers not really up to date or compatible with webrtc back then?

Hi maxwell, what would you recommend to another developer who might be entering the same space with a WebRTC-based product?

At least I think WebRTC was mentioned, been dying for more fixes to issues.

I feel like Apple has done the same thing to Safari and web-based Apple stuff, just always banging my head when developing for Safari browsers especially in a production environment when everything counts.

Weirdest part of this is that the Lead Developer at Aurelia and the guy who posted this on twitter works at Microsoft which again is weird now that Github is part of Microsoft.

Theres a huge influx of virus misinformation in China itself, not just Taiwan, worth noting. See: https://www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v42/n05/wang-xiuying/the-wor...

I used both too and I think it really depends if you want to pay for it. For small to medium independent projects, I think a EC2 instance that sometimes cuts past that free tier usage is fine, otherwise RDS can be overkill and can seriously eat into costs. I would say a beginner doing independent projects should strongly consider EC2 instances instead of RDS.

What's RAX? And also Shaq invested early in Google. In the end, the NBA reflects society and has broad strokes and a wide spectrum of players.

It's about tradeoffs, if you ban live animal markets all over China for long periods of time, you will instantly cause far greater destruction on peoples' daily lives in China as people will suffer from poverty. There's probably millions of people going to go hungry because they lost their source of income and poor farmers in China don't have that much social mobility to get another job.

This sounds like a first-world comment, those open-air markets form because the merchants are subsistence farmers or people living outside the city without a lot of money and have to travel into the city. The farming in China isn't as industrialized or corporatized as in America and you will encounter poorer farmers or small traders who basically sell at these markets without having to spend a lot of money for rent because it isn't a high-margin business. Think farmers' market but filled with poor farmers. These merchants aren't forming open-air markets for fun, it's because they have to. If you force them out, then you will end up destroying poor people's lives.

The food and grocery companies in China who are selling in supermarkets are already in the supermarkets.

EDIT: I dislike eating 'exotic' meats and discourage the practice, however there's a fine line when you enforce the ban live animal market policy. Note that it has been enacted in Wuhan when the disease started. I also support stronger regulations and animal protections on these live animal markets and am not deflecting blame from these live animal markets but straight-up banning is not the right solution.

I think its for the cool and fun factor and to hear google text-to-speech voice talking to you. It must feel cool one way or another, its usually how kids and teenagers spread things.

Don't software-based games count? I always see games asking for funding on Kickstarter.

https://www.project-syndicate.org/ because its more from the source of international figures, a bit like an Twitter for intelligent international scholars and public figures.

To those who have watched the 1988 Anime Sci-fi film Akira, it is set in 2019 aka the future and what they got wrong amuses me greatly

这是哪路大神写的？

The media is obsessed about Trump because those stories bring money and is more relevant to American media and audiences, Chilean protests don't fetch the same amount of dollars or American attention.

Interestingly enough, no Muslim country is officially criticizing China, they're all on the officially supporting side.

Communication pains and always missing out on certain information that might help with developing features, projects and your career in general.

I've had an app that kind of blew up and grew to thousands of users in several weeks and then reach top 200 Lifestyle Apps on Appstore. It also had more than 100 ratings with an avg rating of 4.6. However I stopped updating a long time ago and removed it from Appstore, I noticed basically that old ratings get erased after version updates to the app which I guess make sense as it ensures reviews are actually of the current version of the app so.I guess Snaplight just died in popularity after several updates.

From running my own apps and toy startups in college, I don't think its really the age, its rather the ability of the person to do many things from the tech side to the business side from like creating the tech/app to going out and marketing it so you can actually carry the app to success at an early stage, the experience the person actually has with developing and marketing/distributing a product so you can carry the app at a growth stage, the connections the person has to raise money and find cofounders/employees and the financial capital of the person so you can scale a product to and past product-market fit. These things can come with age but a young person with all the above can run a successful business if they have these things.

On the other hand, you can be middle-aged or 50+ and not have any of these things and run a quite awful startup that turnovers like ~20% of your employees each month which my friend works at and can attest to, as they have a rather middle-aged senior management and ceo + cto at their 50-person startup with executives who have been in the tech and real estate industry at companies like Expedia for 7+ years and it is not successful despite raising huge amounts of cash and their company product has never been launched in the 2+ years or any user testing in the period their company has existed and still offer free dinners and monthly bonuses with the enormous cashpile they raised and keep raising.

This is also why I think people like Mark Zuckerberg or Steve Jobs/Steve Wozniak or Bill Gates or Spiegel/Murphy or the Collison brothers, etc. has, which is the ability and experience or at least talent of pretty much any middle-aged startup founder. There are just some people that outshine others even at a young age.

Had this feature on my Google Maps a while back, thought it was already released and has some fun using it, but you need a constant internet connection

TLDR: Arab armies are ineffective because of the all the internal, external and ethnic politics which hinders all kinds of cooperation and unity at the battalion-level, otherwise on the unit and soldier-level they are comparable to Israeli units.

They should probably put the title as Medieval Europeans, the misconception that Medieval "people"/Europeans don't bathe isn't a global notion because Medieval people from other places bathed such as the Japanese.
