Can a "cultural translator" explain why the Chinese consumer market is so highly susceptible to Western marketing of import brand marks, for highly-specific products, when otherwise they appear strongly nationalistic?

This doesn't seem to broadly carry over into all products. My gut-feel impressions from visiting China: Cars, yes. Phones, no. Scotch, yes. Watches, no. Clothes, no. Houses, no. Household appliances, no. Bottled water, no.

Americans have their yes/no list, various European citizens have theirs, and so on. And there are sub-groups (like I'm aware of a market for ultra-premium watches with 5-figure+ USD price tags among some hedge fund types), but I'm interested in characterizations at a broad national level. I'm curious to hear from Chinese or Chinese culture-fluent what factors in their opinions went into the make up the Chinese national variant of this list.
Reordering constraints changing performance is basically impossible to avoid for constraint systems, because we are very bad at predicting which constraints should be considered first -- well, you can always apply some normalisation pass which at least hides the problem from users.

Reording causing changes in feasibility of a problem is a MAJOR bug, and I hoped they reported it. The constraint system I work on (Minion and Essence', a competitor to MiniZinc), has (AFAIK) never had such a bug in any release (they come up occasionally during development, but we have serious tests specially designed to detect that kind of problem).

So like Intel in the sense that they are a chip fabrication/mass manufacturing company that happens to design chips? Or the new Intel that wants to "add more value" with things like face detection in Windows hello?

I bought a 512GB Samsung 850 SSD years ago for 150€. The price hasn't changed and the competitors are only slightly cheaper at 140€.

I think NAND has hit a brickwall in scaling. The only thing the manufacturers can do to decrease prices now is to add more layers and store multiple bits per cell at the cost of write cycles.

I'm sorry but you're presenting us just some anecdotal evidence. Where I'm living, there's no obvious evidence to show that recycling doesn't work. These don't prove anything.

An on screen keyboard is fine for vim, at least for things light duty tasks. I use the one provided by my phone's vendor (it provides the number row) and Termux offers a row of common keys that usually gets the job done.

I also find that vim is easier to use for editing than Android editors. It is easier to use insertion, movement, and deletion commands instead of trying to tap on the right position or dragging to select.
UI killer, never take your phone out of your pocket again. Compatible devices in your home are inspectable and controllable. Even dumb objects could have a UI if they can be recognized. Your toothbrush could show usage and expiry info. Houseplants can remind you when to water them. You could have a large marker indicate where your keys are. Being able to annotate anything with dates, reminders, instructions, etc.

There's a lot of information and calculations we carry around in our heads that could be offloaded or supplemented.
To an outside observer (I do not have a FB account), this looks like a good plan from the FB side. Kind of like GMail inbox categories/tabs. All about reducing the signal (friends) to noise (something you may have liked 3 years ago) ratio. You will still see as many ads, but the content between those will be more relevant.

Too bad FB does not offer ad-free account as an option.
The annoying thing here, as a Facebook user, is that if I've liked the "Cute Puppies" page it's because I want to see their cute puppies.

To then strip them entirely out of my Facebook feed unless they hand Facebook some cash feels like a step back in my usage of Facebook.
Or ... you don't break down ifs, loops and so on into branches to begin with. Scala.js has an optimizing compiler that doesn't do that (and I've heard a bunch of compiler people who were really impressed at the level of optimizations we can do without breaking down control flow into branches).

That's cause you're not listening to the message.

The message is not that recycling does not work.

The message is that because recycling half-works, you feel comfortable consuming vast quantities of garbage packaging.

Recycling is the mechanism that permits you to not question the packaging industry.

I did not say that recycling does not work.

The genius of recycling is that it half works, with the incredibly powerful outcome that people like you argue on behalf of the packaging industry.

Recycling is a sleight of hand. Like a world class magician, it is a redirection of our attention away from what the packaging industry is doing.

Recycling is the "look here, see everything is OK, we're not actually doing anything so bad".

Those mentioned languages were designed to compile to JS.

In addition, there are general purpose languages that compile pretty well to JS:

* OCaml (js_of_ocaml, bucklescript)
* Haskell
* etc.

Those have the advantage that they have a mature ecosystem of libraries, and have very good compilers to native code on server side as well.
That's exactly what annoys me about it.

Their solution to put it into the "Explore"-Tab, mixed with content of Pages I didn't even like makes it worthless.

I have a complete opposite feelings: mobile apps are actually sandboxed, modern phones have secure elements in hardware and the attack surface itself is pretty limited.

On the other hand, there's virtually no sandboxing on your laptop. As software developers, we pull random code from the internet all the time and it's generally trivial to steal every secret that your user has access to (https://xkcd.com/1200/)

Personally I'm not worried about baseband processor (or Intel ME) owning my device. I'm more worried about some random malware installing a keylogger and/or stealing my whole LastPass database. This would be virtually impossible on mobile, but is relatively trivial on laptop.
It doesn't work because the packaging isn't recycled. You're not allowed to use post-consumer plastic to make food grade PP [1]. So %0 of food packaging is recycled as food packaging. Sometimes it is turned into insulation or polyester for clothing, but it rarely if ever is turned into hard plastic again. PP can only be recycled about 3 times as hard plastic before the mechanical properties become unusable and the plastic comes out visibly brittle and rough. ABS is similarly hard to recycle, and colored plastics cannot be turned into white plastic which can be used to make colored parts.

The only recycled plastic in your life is:

1. polyester clothing
2. building materials
3. agricultural materials

3 is pretty ironic. You're allowed to grow a plant in a recycled container, but once you harvest that plant, it must be stored in a food grade container which cannot be recycled.

YouTube isn't going to get replaced. Google still aren't still aren't really making any money from it. For the majority of YouTube's life, it's run at a loss for it's owner. Think about it; YouTube offers free, unlimited, original quality video storage. In fact, they're such a charity, they'll even compress down your original quality video down to a manageable size where thousands of people can be accessing it from across the globe at the same time with no bandwidth issues. If web video standards improve such as to allow 60fps playback, YouTube will automatically re-encode and re-compress your original file to match.

YouTube isn't great. As a community, it's a pretty bad caretaker. But it's the best that anyone will get. It almost seems like people have forgotten the pre-YouTube times where ebaumsworld was still the dominant video site and where they were actual gatekeepers to content.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/viewers-dont-add-up-to-profit-f...

The only way it gets replaced is if they upset the majority of their users. Which at this point, still isn't happening. The YouTube drama crowd isn't the majority of the site. The reason why late night clips get sent to the top of trending most often isn't because YouTube is in conspiracy cahootz with ABC. It's because that's what an 'average' YouTube viewer is most likely to want to watch and would most likely produce a predictable return.

For a successful YouTube competitor, it's going to take a large company with real balls to want to compete with Google and YouTube.

MiniZinc is a language for "constraint programming" with a focus on discrete decision problems, and supporting many "global constraints", such as "alldifferent".

Pyomo uses "algebraic notation" for so-called mathematical programming models. This starts out with continuous variables and linear constraints ("linear programming"), but nonlinear constraints and discrete variables are also supported.

Of course, there is a lot of overlap in functionality. Sorry for the specific vocab.

Yep its all about memes and 'news' (fake news, dailymail stuff).

I found something interesting on my FB feed. I haven't liked any meme or news pages etc. So I'd get mostly what my friends liked from their liked pages.

Recently I liked an online newspaper. For the past 2 months 4 out of 7 posts are from this newspaper.

It feels like FB knows its a newspaper and its just serving me news, to get me more addicted to it...

Exactly, the function should not be responsible to see if robot.action has any existing value. It should just return an action depending on the state.
As with any automated transport discussion, there's the question of liability. If a pilot is at fault, there's an obvious liability on them. People have an intrinsic trust of a human pilot to sort out an issue if it arises, versus relying on a computer which is a complete black box to the passengers. If a pilot is at fault, it's a forgivable thing - in the worst cases the families have some closure, some level of "the pilot messed up, such is life". If a machine or system is at fault, who's to blame? The engineer? The programmer? The maintenance worker? The airline for procuring a cheap contract?
I guess I took your comment the wrong way. Sorry about that.
Actually, they're just forcing businesses that have pages to pay for ads.

I think these are great examples of technological aids that people really do not want in their lives.

I'd just like to modify your list in that I think wealthy Chinese consumers are highly susceptible to certain designer clothing and accessories, ala Gucci, Louis Vuitton, etc.

I think everything else can be explained by a sort of clash between utilitarianism and a desire for status symbols. Tools that can be readily copied in China and produced much more cheaply are sold as that: tools. So phones, watches, appliances, etc. Cars and clothes can also be readily copied, but even in the west they show more status than the other things listed. So when it comes time to copy them, it's more apparent when you have a Chinese knockoff vs. an "original".

The best part about Twitter is the simple timeline. Twitter doesn’t care about what the account represents, so all accounts have the same priority.

Yes, Twitter has started to mess with its timeline, but that’s besides the point.

Facebook’s noise problem is one that they themselves created. Countless of times I found myself subscribed to some page only because I liked one of their posts. Which is bullshit, because in my vocabulary Follow != Like.

Then they tried fixing this by prioritizing posts based on a bullshit ranking system only they understand. That didn’t work either.

Oh well, maybe we’ll go back full circle after all.

Yep, what I do normally first thing on monday morning is to do a google search for "drone" (not that I am interested in buying one, mind you, but they are actually nice little thingies).

This way - at least up to Wednesday - I see mostly ads for drones.

On Thursday I make a search for "led lamp", just like KGIII reported for barns doors, I have no actual need of any led lamp, but it is nice to have (mostly) "known content" ads.

> Anthropologist David Wengrow argues that hybrid monsters proliferated during the Bronze Age, because new trade routes and cultural mixing elicited psychological anxiety. Creating monsters is a way of channeling our cultural and political fears into tangible forms, into objects of loathing and dread.

Or most stories were written and/or propagated by entertainers (including parents or babysitters who want the kids to shut up and sit in one place) and it's cool to hear about Bellerophon defeating a superbeast. Note that many monsters are just big and super powered, like the Erymanthian Boar. But in this case, it's fun to see if the hero can take on a beast with the intelligence of a man and the bloodlust and strength of a bull. These beasts are also strange, which makes for a fun and surprising story.

Compare to the Super-Skrull, a Fantastic Four bad guy whose powers are (basically) the powers of the Fantastic Four combined:
