I use LTS in my project, my project is an big enterprise product, sell to big companies and govs/banks, some customer have very strict control on security, e.g. In one of my customers, a big bank, there's a seperate secutiry team, the team scan my the servers with my product monthly, onces the scans found any security issue(generally they are CVEs), the securty team notify product team those security issues my be fixed in 2 days, or network to/from those servers will be blocked. So we got highest level support case. In my case, security fix for java is very important, and it's not a good idea to follow non-lts java releases(there's no overlap in java's minor releases).
From 20+ of my friends in Wuhan, the numbers most likely correct.
And in my city, a small city in China with about 3M population, there's about 100 total confirmed cases in the past 2 months, there's news spreaded in local social network for every case before official confirmation. IMO, it's very hard to hide numbers.
In early stage of Wuhan(Jan 2020), there's hiding numbers, and there's lots 'rumours' widely spreaded on social network, e.g. Lots messages from medical staffs in Wuhan, so we known the numbers of Wuhan is not correct. But in recent weeks there's no such 'rumours', the gov may have strong control on many things, but it's not possible to control all(most?) 'rumours'..
Is it related to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/July_2009_%C3%9Cr%C3%BCmqi_rio...
?
Xinjiang is my hometown, the riots is terrible, many people died in the event(most in the first 2 days), I was impressed becuase I know one man's two twin girls killed in the riots, and the angry man orginized many workers in the next day's riots(revenge...)
It's a complex thing, as I know, there's too many media misleading, in both side.
Well, let us examine this possibility by reading the article.
That was in 2009 and according to the featured article, in 2010 he was promoted to the President and Vice Secretary of the Communist Party of Xinjiang University and he only recently disappeared in 2017.
So I am guessing it would be rather unlikely.
>It's a complex thing, as I know, there's too many media misleading, in both side.
This is also something of a problem in the commentary, it would appear.
It's a lot like the HK riots which started as a movement against a law (the very kind of law Tiyip has been taken by) but ended up as a metro station burning game.
I'm in HK and a democrat, sure, but these angelic freedom fighting tales abroad are as misleading as the diabolical black hand rhetoric of the mainland media.
As most human movement, there's a gaussian distribution between two extremes, and the two extremes makes the most noise (because extreme noise brings shocked readers) while most ignore and live on.
The spate of hardware refreshes last week makes this unlikely. Perhaps the Apple TV could be updated, but not the core hardware (phones/tablets/computers/watches).
"local-phone-number registration requirements" because it's required that it's should be easy to find the real person(account->phone number->id number) for all user generated content
Please rethink that it's a good world where positive genetic traits can be added to babies - in a world where this is common, you or your kids would be in unfair competition with genetically superior people simply because their parents are rich. And the poor would be, for the first time in history, objectively inferior.
Yes, kids with rich parents are already at advantage - just wait to see what genetic superiority does to that divide.
On the other hand, I usually stop and inspect myself whenever my reasoning that something is bad is not because it hurts me, but because I can't accept to see others improve.
Good rule of thumb is that people should have the freedom to do anything as long as it doesn't violate other people's right. How does a rich family violate poor family's right by making their rich baby better?

On the micro-economics scale, I would not only agree with you, but argue that a successful society depends on it. Just as you should be allowed to participate in whatever harmless recreational activities you like at your own home, so should you be able to keep for yourself anything you've made or earned. Without these freedoms, people lose their incentives to be productive members of society.
However, this breaks down on the macro scale when feedback loops get out of control. Monopolies, duopolies and the like are pretty accepted as bad for economic growth because they have the resources to crush competition and have total control over markets. But monopolies are often just the result of a company that was first to market, had economies of scale, entrenched themselves through legislation, maintained an established brand, and had other feedback loops to strengthen themselves.
Just as we break up monopolies to give competition a chance, we should be working hard to break feedback loops that enforce hierarchy of classes so we can give everyone a chance to be successful or fail on their own.
The parent comment is correct that genetically engineered babies would likely be a mechanism for the socio-economically powerful to entrench their status further. It's not necessarily an argument for outright banning CRISPR babies, but giving more power to rich families absolutely does harm poor families by putting the poor families at a competitive disadvantage.
> Just as we break up monopolies to give competition a chance, we should be working hard to break feedback loops that enforce hierarchy of classes so we can give everyone a chance to be successful or fail on their own.
Mmm...with respect to enforced/entrenched class hierarchies you argue that we should break them up. That looks good on paper but when it comes down to it many parents/families who are smart do their utmost to give their children a leg up. Is this not legitimate? Isn't this, generally speaking, how families that have retained status/prosperity across generations?
Just to clarify, I said to break feedback loops that enforce class hierarchy. I agree that parents/families should do their utmost to give their children a leg up, but the game also needs to be fair for all players.
Take universities for example. They're not-for-profit institutions that are dedicated to the pure advancement of knowledge. They're a purely good thing. But as the job market required workers of higher skill and knowledge, and as colleges became a necessity for anyone pursuing a sustainable career, tuition prices rose massively. Wealthy families can still afford university tuition and still have all the opportunities that come with, whereas poor families who don't earn scholarships are left with fewer options.
So universities--which still are a purely good thing--have now enabled a feedback loop for furthering the gap between rich and poor. The solution would never be to break up universities, but to break their role in this feedback loop (by, for example, making them not a prerequisite for employment, or by enabling more universal access).
Likewise, I fear for a future where genetically engineered super humans exist, where they are only born of families who can afford it, where employers will hire with exceeding prejudice in favor of people born this way, where universities will likewise favor people like this, and where the rest of humanity gets left out.
> On the other hand, I usually stop and inspect myself whenever my reasoning that something is bad is not because it hurts me, but because I can't accept to see others improve.
Good point. Not many are as clear thinking as you. The one point against this kind of manipulation is that I'm not sure we can predict all the potential consequences. By altering the genes of a few individuals we may incur unintended consequences in generations to come. So whilst we may not personally suffer from the guy next door giving siring to "superior" children there may be trouble a few generations down the line. Perhaps I'm overly pessimistic...
Thing is that any society that hesitates on adopting genetic engineering out of some fear of exacerbating income inequality or whatever is going to lose out in the long run to any civilization that has no such ethical hangups about genetic engineering. It's a prisoner's dilemma.
Remove IP laws, copy all the best tech from everywhere, and make it availible to everyone possible. Not sure how that will necessarily lose to a small number of the rich hoarding access.
I'd suppose governments with a socialised healthcare system would push and invest heavily if it means to lower the cost. Just like most (?) push for affordable medicine in one form or another.
The framework mark itself as enterprise level
Used by many small companies in china, and those companies delivers products to many different customers, include chinese gov/military, and maybe some the middle east customers.
So the problem is that:
1. Chinese gov/military don't allow celebration of Christmas in their office.(CCP members not allowed to have religious belief)
2. It's a critical thing for some customers like The Middle east
3. If it's a hidden Easter Egg hard to trigger, it's ok; but it's not.
Comments from the dev of the Easter Egg:
1. He commented it's a small thing, don't need to include in changelog. So nearly all users don't known this
2. Another his comment: "I have already prepared for the complains"
consumption tax is 17% in China, and yes, the tax not listed on price tag, actually print consumption tax on price tag is not allowed in a certain degree...
Many people in China don't know this consumption tax, and some may say "I don't pay any tax to gov" and of cause it's not true.
I also use 3D touch many times every day.
Mainly for mobile payments, example:
1. Pay for bus fare: unlock->find app->3d touch->select "show payment barcode"
2. Instant payment in restaurant: unlock->find app(e.g. wechat)->3d touch->"show payment barcode"/OR "scan barcode" to scan restaurant's bar code for payment
Without 3d touch you need one more step to open the app, and maybe more steps to find menu for payments(depends on apps you use)
edit: just found some apps(not all) provide widget to access features like payment...
