As of the executive order on Hong Kong Normalization [1], there is no policy distinction between Hong Kong and China.

The more interesting question is Taiwan, for which the US has taken no official position on sovereignty.

It is unlikely that Taiwan would still be an independent nation in the absence of the U.S. military. At least as I see it.

As people are pointing out, no. This isn't a blanket law, it requires per-case executive action to enforce.

What the law absolutely does do is make "Chinese Ownership" an existential risk to companies with software products with large numbers of US users. Riot, Epic et. al. will be strongly incentivised to get their PRC shareholders to divest, and in the future other companies will be disincentivized from accepting that kind of investment.

And surely that's intentional.

OK, let me reword. I still can converse with others on Chinese social media, but I will have a harder time convincing them that GFW is a bad idea or that the China's government is wrong restricting speech. Because people not already convinced will point to the US banning TikTok and ask me how China's actions are different. The distinction between the two is subtle, and frankly, while the US actions do not violate the First Amendment, it does breach the underlying principles. I have no convincing argument for them.

What does "experimental formalist" mean in this case and what is the associated point of view you're referring to?
I'd argue Afghanistan was an unclear and unfunded set of moving goal posts. There was an objective the US did succeed in; the death of the figurehead for the terrorist group that perpetrated September 11th 2001 attacks.

Forcing a regime change, society modernization (E.G. value women, everyone can vote, have a not-shit quality of life so there's something to stay at home and value), general reforms like that weren't something that was a clear goal for everyone involved. There was far too much corruption, in war profiteering among contractors, political institutions and figures, etc.

There was a great set of unfulfilled needs (IMO, offhand): a combination of engineers being free to do what _they_ think is necessary to build a stable and sustainable society, educators and a system of perpetuating that society in place once 'we' pull out, and politicians/diplomats to tackle and fix the social structure issues that aren't clearly objective and correctable with obvious actions, but more that require consensus and emotional support.

Oh, and a lot of funding in public, audited, bookkeeping that has verifiable results.

I'd really like to see the same domestically. The US GAO should produce reports for the average citizen, so they can understand where the funds going into the government come from (both per person, and broadly), and what value is derived from those funds.

It's really easy to say 'blow X up', 'end entitlement Y', 'shutdown Z'; but it's much more difficult to articulate preventative care, investment in the future, and improvement of the commons. Much like misinformation is easy and it's hard to spread the truth.

I didn't see any mention of copyright.

In the US in almost all cases the interviewee will not be an employee of the company and writing the code within the scope of their employment, and so the code will not automatically be a "work for hire".

That means that the interviewee will own the copyright of the code they write. This is something you will want to think about if you are the employer and considering coding requirements during interviews whether take-home or in-person.

It could be bad news if some interviewee's code ended up in production (accidentally or on purpose) and you did not own the copyright.

If you want to own the code that interviewees write, there are two approaches. The most reliable approach would be to get them to sign an agreement assigning the copyright of anything they write for the interview to you.

This will require a contract so don't just wing it. Get your company's lawyer to write it.

The other approach is to try to make it a work for hire. If you succeed then the copyright is yours as soon as the interviewee writes it.

For this you need three things:

1. A written agreement signed by the interviewee and the company saying that the code will be a work for hire.

2. The code must be specifically ordered or commissioned.

3. It must fall into one of 9 specific categories of works.

#1 should be easy, but get your lawyer to write the agreement. #2 should also be easy if you do a decent job of specifying the assignment you give the interviewee.

#3 might be difficult. For a long time software was not thought to fall into any of the categories and so could not be a work for hire unless developed by an employee. But a few years ago some courts decided that it could fall into a couple of them. I haven't kept up with developments since then and so don't know if this is now settled.

The usually recommendation I've seen is to have your work for hire agreement also include a copyright assignment agreement in case the work turns out not to be a work for hire.

If this is Sinophobic, China must be pissing its pants terrified of the United States. It's a shame for the two of them I guess.

>The reason is Americans, in aggregate, are under-educated compared to the rest of the world

Objectively wrong. It's one of the most educated countries in the world, just mediocre compared to the rest of the OECD. They're more educated than China, no matter how well a small number of urban Chinese students do on international standardised tests.
I've tried to research details about the size of BRI and find specific projects. It's surprisingly opaque if you're used to FHWA's public disclosure of funds and projects. You could trace most hihhway funding in, say West Virginia, by pulling a few documents. I couldn't find any details on any project. I could not even find a video stream of the last year's conference. Just a keynote translation a week later.

I am suspicious that BRI might be more hot air than substance. That or world journalism is oblivious to what is supposedly the largest international infrastructure program in the world. Or Google doesn't index it.

Huh, interesting. Although I feel obligated to object:

> After the treatment period, and 6 months after treatment stopped, there were no significant differences between the groups in terms of changes in degree of myopia compared with baseline. Nor were there significant differences in axial length within the two groups when compared with baseline measurements.

This implies essentially nothing about the efficacy of atropine — it actually means “if there was an effect, then the study was underpowered for the size of the effect or otherwise failed to detect it.” One could quantify the degree to which the study actually suggests that the treatment didn’t work, but the authors did not do that.

I, too, can fail to detect a benefit to low-dose atropine. Hey, look, I just enrolled 0 subjects and didn’t confirm the effect. So it wasn’t “significant!” But I obviously showed nothing at all.

Looking at the actual summary in the linked paper’s results section, and doing no real math, it does look like it genuinely contradicts the idea that low-dose atropine is as effective as previous studies seem to suggest, which is interesting. But that’s not what the authors, or the NIH summary, wrote!
I think the implication is that this interview is more about the interviewer than about the interviewee. Not sure I agree. Infoboxes about the author of an article are a common practice. I see them even on recipe websites

I think the failure to “win” on the part of the U.S. since 1945 has mostly come down to lack of political will. We could have done what McArthur wanted and dropped 50 atomic bombs on China and won the Korean War. Thankfully we didn’t. Our losses have not come from the inability of the U.S. military to obliterate (in a conventional way) our opponents.
You can see my nearby thread for a more detailed look at the claim.

The tl;dr: the "limiting factor" is a tunnel width of 18', against a standard US loading gauge of 10'6", and a standard US track gauge of 4'8½" ... and the SRBs are 12' in diameter, which doesn't seem clearly limited by any of those factors whatsoever.

As much as I love branding, I would be hesitant to use it for critical math and where you might want to inspect the type at runtime as with money.

Since our data warehouse data source is Kafka, the offline data warehouse needs to use Flume to collect data from Kafka to HDFS.

In actual projects, it is not feasible to always start Flume tasks in Xshell. Firstly, because there are many Flume tasks in the project, and secondly, once the Xshell page is closed, the Flume tasks will stop, which is very inconvenient. Therefore, it is necessary to start Flume tasks in the background.
If we talk about law, that is probably true. But for the principles, I don't think so.

We want freedom of speech because we can never know that our opinions are the ultimate Truth, so we need to ensure that everyone can speak their mind, and so can the real Truth be propagated and preserved. And that everyone includes foreigners and foreign governments.

Every time China's governments (including the past ones, like the Qing Dynasty) rejects the idea of freedom and democracy, it demonizes them by painting them as plots of foreign governments trying to overthrow and destablize China. So you can see why I am so wary of the argument that it is OK to silence the words if those come from a foreign government.
That has a lot of overhead compared to validating and casting a primitive.

NativeAOT defaults to x86-x64 (sans v2) unless specified otherwise.

CR enables to update a line of text. Print some text without newline at the end, print CR, print another line, and the old text will be overwritten with the new one.

"Should be describable" is a false metric. We can hear differences between categories and not be able to verbalize what we're hearing.

> There is a small neural network on the retina that tries to detect if the eye is far-sighted (most people are born far-sighted), and it is producing dopamine to slow or increase eye growth rate. It is not very smart, and if you do a lot of near-work it can think you are still hyperopic, causing further myopia progression. So, based on the refractive properties of the eye the software calculates the signal that would convince the retinal neural network that the eye is long enough, so it would produce dopamine, a known signal to stop axial eye growth. (based on myopic defocus LCA from the papers[2][3])

Refractify is the worlds first software to apply myopic defocus effect on the screen. Pre-clinical studies suggest that it may slow the progression of myopia or even prevent it. This makes the screen look on the retina naturally as if it was at a greater distance. This is possible because there are slight detectable differences in the statistical properties of the light depending on how far it is coming from due to Longitudinal Chromatic Aberration(LCA) and other effects. LCA simulation is being used in computer graphics since at least 2017 to enhance depth perception, but only recently has it gained research interest for its myopia prevention properties.
