Is true, but Shenzhen is culturally very different from Beijing and so is Shanghai.

Shenzhen is a new city and tech stuff are there because of the influence of Guangzhou as production hub and HK as facilitator for access to the west.

Beijing is more, let me say it, artistic. Is much more vibrant, culturally, than any other city in China. This kind of mix that you can find in New Work, Berlin or London also it brings innovation. So I don't think is meant to make the government "happy". Many Chinese tech company started in Beijing form many reasons: education, capital access, culture and so on. To give you an example: Mobike was founder by an ex journalist

I wrote a spell checker for my undergraduate to help with automation research back in 2011, it allowed the researcher to do things like insert words that would show as incorrect when they were actually correct, and see if people would notice with varying levels of difficulty. The idea was to try to measure how some automated systems can improve or reduce net performance.

I actively tried to avoid using libraries, and ended up writing most of it in vanilla JavaScript - including a bunch of DOM manipulations, which was suicide at the time. I even wrote my own XML-based DSL for defining the input text.

Would have loved to actually follow through with the research but phd's don't pay bills.
"Pros" are subjective, of course. But if you ask an American to describe why US is great, it would be things like:

* Largest economy on the planet

* Biggest and most well known tech companies (or companies in general)

* Majority of the top research universities

* Quality of medical system (if you can pay!)

* And so on

For us in tech, living in the US is no comparison - it's the best place to be an engineer by a long shot, due to much higher wages and opportunities. Not to say you can't find good stuff elsewhere, it's just harder, and you'll get rewarded much less in general.

Increased regulation, labour protections, consumer protections, and so on stifles the economy, at least in the short term. I'm not saying that's bad - there's more to life than money, which I think is an idea that Europe embraces more so than the US.
How many of the problems the US faces are genuinely caused by immigration, and how many would change if immigration ended?

That's the crux of the matter.

Factually, in the UK virtually none of our social and economic problems have been caused by immigration. When you look into the facts, unaffordable housing, a creaking health service, street violence, and job losses are all effects of policy, not specific groups of foreign people.

Coincidentally, the people pushing the policies that created our problems are also the most enthusiastic using immigrants as a scapegoat and misdirection.

I wonder if the US is the same.

> Maybe I should switch to FreeBSD?

Depends on how tied you are to Linux, but yes it might be worth it. I for one enjoy FreeBSD a lot. I run it on my servers and on one of my laptops. My desktop runs Linux.

If you have the time and motivation I’d say give FreeBSD a shot. Rent a VPS from Vultr for example or install it in a VM on your computer. Play around with it and see how you like it.

As for packaging of Caddy on Linux there seems to be a few issues if you look at the following thread: https://caddy.community/t/packaging-caddy/61

- The developers dislike packaging because it makes “plugins” unavailable. Personally I think they are concerned about this for no reason. There ought to be a version of Caddy in the package repos without additional “plugins” that covers the 99% use-case which is to serve static files from a directory with automatic Let’s Encrypt certificate retrieval. Just like how the package on FreeBSD does. Those wanting customization can build from source; that is very reasonable and in line with the expectations one should have to an OS-provided package manager IMO.

- They don’t want to deal with packaging until they hit v1.0.

- They are talking about wanting to package an auto-updater. This is absolutely the wrong approach IMO, but it relates back to their differing in opinion about the role of their “plugins” in relation to the packages that would be provided. I think Debian for example have the same view as me on this issue, and I think other distros do as well probably. Packages provided by the OS-provided package manager should never rely on needing to retrieve additional files not included in the package, except via dependency on other packages, or where they are forced to do so for licensing reasons.

- Speaking of Debian, they mentioned that packaging software written in Go can be problematic/difficult in relation to the Debian packaging guidelines because it seems that to follow those guidelines strictly, each dependency must be packaged separately rather than being vendored. Whether this is correct or not I don’t know.

- Like I said further up ITT, the source is covered by Apache 2.0 and they also confirm in that thread that compiling binaries and distributing binaries you’ve compiled from source is allowed in accordance with those terms. That’s really no surprise — if that was not allowed then they couldn’t have said that the source was covered by Apache 2.0 — but it’s reassuring to see that they intentionally want to allow redistribution of binaries built from source.

It seems to me that if packages for Linux are going to become available any time soon, someone needs to step up and take care of it. For example by providing a PPA for Ubuntu users. There was one PPA mentioned in the thread but I didn’t look into whether it is still maintained or not since I do not have any current plans of running Caddy on Ubuntu myself.
I am still wondering whether or not LineageOS does send data to google. No definite answers seems to exist. :/

I don’t understand the backlash for this. It seems people do react without investigating the issue when they hear Oracle name.

What it is really happening is really simple. And I think acceptable approach. Think about how redhat company controls Redhat (distribution) and Fedora.

Fedora is free. It will get updated. Redhat (company) is the real power behind Fedora. But it does not have any enterprise support. You want enterprise support, buy Redhat subscription. And it is not like Fedora does not get security update. It gets and it is very effective.

The same relation is going to happen with Oracle Java SE and OpenJDK.

Openjdk is free. It will get updated. Oracle is the real power behind Openjdk. But it does not have any enterprise support. You want enterprise support, buy OracleJdk subscription. And it is not like Openjdk does not get security update. It gets and it is very effective.
Thanks for sharing! I just started researching how to analyze text for a project. I am tasked with analyzing content to see if they match my client products or something similar. Matching my the product name is easy, but matching by similar is what’s throwing me off.

Is there an api service for these type of text analysis?
It becomes a matter of support. Fedora releases are unsupported in about a year give or take. Which means you have to upgrade to the next one if you need security patches. That's only bad if the next release is unstable for your usecase or breaks something you rely on - s/w versions etc.

This accusation is wrong. Chat is using a protocol which is a successor of SMS. It's an interface to this protocol and not a 100% WhatsApp/Telegram copy. And this will be also the reason it will fail... it's not all on Google's control, even the network providers will have control and iOS will be missing (that means no entire market reach). The problem with this new standard (RCS I think) is that it was never designed for end to end encryption.
Every single news organization has read the original study wrong or parroted another article about the 90% figure. The full quote from the study [1] is "the top-ten rivers with the highest loads contribute ~90% of the total river-driven plastic inputs into the sea."

4. Have made a good business case that the benefits are worth the costs and risks

The judge thought it was pre-meditated. He had extra tools on board of the sub, that usually stayed in his workshop. He had also contacted multiple women in the time up to the killing, asking them to go on a trip with him in the sub. The day before he killed, maimed, and dismembered Kim, he watched a genuine snuff film, on his computer, showing a woman getting killed.

He is up to something like three or four different explanations for an accident, and they have all been refuted by experts. Also his psyc evaluation concluded that he is a danger for others.

I'm sorry but I find your apologetic tone uncomfortable.
One of the reasons we don't have the full story is that Madsen has repeatedly lied about it, in ways that can be verified. The general drift of those lies has been to make it seem like an accident, so we can reasonably assume that the truth does not indicate that it was accidental.
I didn't see any Fedora "production" servers in my system administration life. Since Fedora is a kind of test bed for RedHat development, it is not considered for serious/production servers.

Also, since CentOS is a well established free alternative to RHEL, the unwritten rules point to CentOS for RedHat based servers.
Very exciting news!

I hope YC will help Chinese startups become global. My biggest problem with Silicon Valley is its ideological uniformity and the increasing willingness to use their companies/products as vehicles to push their ideologies.

China would be in an excellent position to address the part of the Western market that is increasingly alienated by this push. They can build SV tech clones for the local market, and then expand to the global market by offering ideologically more neutral (from Western perspective) alternatives to SV tech.

Chinese startups will have their own flaws, but at least we will have a choice.

1. Do you love the taste of meat or is it the texture of the meat + the taste of the (plant) seasonings?

2. If it is your primary hobby, you should dive more into cuisines that don't focus heavily on meat as a personal challenge (as well as trying to make plant-based versions of things), I think you'd find it a lot of fun.

3. You can, that is a common misconception but there are a lot of resources on the internet about this–on phone and precaffeinated but I can look later if you'd like.

4. This is a classic reasoning I hear, I think it is honorable that you try to eat humanely killed animals, but there are other issues (factory farming is more environmentally friendly, selective breeding causes health issues, can't be sure all farms are as ethical as the one you worked on, eating meat at basically any restaurant goes against your defense, etc.)

GDPR Watch – Auditing Data Access
Agreed !! Actually, it's a real problem that's not limited to spelling. Look at Siri for instance, granted I haven't used it in a few years, back in the days it was impossible to use for most of my contacts. Indeed, I have both English and French contacts and it's a nightmare to use with Siri.

My Siri is in English because I figured it was more reliable for everyday us then in French. But my mom's contact is as 'maman', can't use Siri to call her. Or I have to try and pronounce 'maman' with an english accent and hope Siri know what I'm talking about. And that's an easy one, try a name like 'Jean Brentois'.... But I assume setting up Siri in French will lead to the same problem, but with my non French contacts now. I have not tried however.

So obviously I get the challenge, but it makes it very hard to use (I can't use Siri like tools in parts because of this). Especially since so many of my contacts are international.

EDIT: a quick fix for contact pronounciation might be to ask the user how he pronounces a particular contact when adding it.

Similarly, why not allow for a special syntax allowing for multiple languages in a sentence ? Say my first language is English, my second is French, and my third is Spanish. Why not something like that: "Let's go to the $$casa $demain $avec $toi, what do you think ?"

Many tech companies started in Beijing with obvious government boosts. There is also the major research universities (PKU and Qinghua at the top, many more at tiers just under). However, Beijing is also famous for government meddling and Black Audi-style privileged that is lacking in SZ and SH.

Take traffic for example, it is much saner in SH and SZ because the police can actually enforce the rules, whereas in BJ you get a asense they have given up because they feel like everyone is an official or is connected to one. It is a weird city even by Chinese standards.

RSF Index 2018: Hatred of journalism threatens democracies
I think it goes beyond neutrality, or curiosity. Some seem to have a rather urgent drive towards it. In this case it seems like there's a sexual element as well.

Aside from the vehement distaste I feel towards these abominations, they're also fascinating, in that they seem alien to me.

How does one come about? Does it feel and think as I do? How different is its experience of the world as compared to mine? Is it different on the same level as the hypothetical difference in perception between the sexes? Or is it further removed—as the perception of the world would be different for a bat, say.

Does it have a purpose in nature to perform some kind of function? Or is it a failed experimentation (mutation) on nature's part; over-optimizing certain things leading to "unintentional" suboptimization of other things? Or has it more to do with nurture rather than nature?

The fascination is directly proportional to how hard it is to comprehend this.

My plugin-hybrid has a speaker that generates noise for exactly this reason. It's annoying to me (it spoils a nearly-silent ride), but I understand the safety reason for it.

I think that over time, this will be less of an issue, for a couple of reasons: First of all, people will be more accustomed to near-silent vehicles, and their situational awareness will adapt. Also, technology—both in the vehicle (to detect pedestrians), and for those with vision problems that otherwise need to rely on hearing—will prevent collisions.

I find it so strange that people don't find the bundling useful, because to me it's mind-boggling powerful.

Being able to open a custom bundle of Git commits from yesterday, scan them, then archive them all in a single click is huge! Being able to click on a bundle created for my upcoming trip and see all my emails for that trip there (hotel, flights, etc...) is such a time saver. Then being able to snooze those bundles to another date/time is also huge.

I actually want them to expand it more, allow me to bundle multiple emails that I choose together! If I get 3 separate emails about something I need to do next week, I want to be able to make an ad-hoc bundle for those 3, then snooze them all to another time together.

I can absolutely see how it's not for everyone, and I don't want anyone to think i'm implying that it's wrong to not want it, but i'm just amazed that there is such a varied response to them!
