It is misleading to suppose there's any basic difference between education and entertainment. This distinction merely relieves people of the responsibility of looking into the matter.
Another 2012 MBP user with similar sentiment-- I upgraded from a DVD drive MBP specifically for a SSD and waited for years for...a touch bar? Fewer ports? Flawed OS upgrades? But did not abandon Apple for its appliances (tablets) for my mother and sibling because I believed appliances were a valid product line faithful to Apple's attention to leveraging a combination of hardware and software to achieve a better user's experience.
I didn't expect Apple to abandon its laptops so completely. UNIX is too powerful a technology to trust to Apple's fictions of public relations after six years of patience. Dual booting a MBP was always a joy, one that has consistently and significantly diminished.
Generations got educated in the West and China kept its own secrets.
Currently, the value of non-resident tuition is a nice round figure of 100 Billion, of which approximately 60% is shared equally between the US and Britain (Britain got on the train first), followed by Canada, Australia, and Europe. Singapore does alright, too.
In the US, this is one way Trustees' have outpaced inflation for the last twenty years, effectively depriving its lower-middle class of an academic experience while simultaneously reducing tenure, diminishing social sciences for STEM related industries, and crying about it all at the same time.
Umm, other than varying amounts of their worth in a Chinese bank, was my understanding. An interpreter I know was required to have a 100,000rmb in their account (placed by the employer) to work in the US and Europe.
It must lead with Michael Brown's facile, yet "expert", narrative of: The Chinese figured out that technology is the key to wealth and power, and the source of technology is still the West for China," says Lewis. The question is: "How do they get their hands on that Western technology?"
Yet the article addressed what mechanisms are already in place to address a potential, criminal abuse.
I term Brown as facile because what organized culture on earth has not recognized technology as crucial? Especially any that expand their interests by direct military action or proxy conflicts? (Speaking to the US here more than China that has never conducted a foreign war.) Brown goes on to present contradictions that border on the stereotype of "sneaky asians" by citing different "rules" and "troll"ing for undervalued enterprises in a context of transparent investment. Without evidence, Brown suggests paying people "a little more than a market price" is an m.o. Perhaps if SV were not riddled with NDAs and been revealed to collude to fix salaries, no such m.o. would be possible. Think tanks? How subversive! Brown emphasizes numerous hypotheticals about technology in "ascent" in the context of venture capital?
Many/.ers have provided to this board their personal knowledge of Chinese enterprises stealing conventions and algorithms (and its hardware) that are disrupting traditional commerce through ever widening and ever granular profiles of consumer behavior-- the Chinese gained sufficient knowledge to erect and maintain a wall to protect themselves from western corporations and their TOS, You Are the Product.
Brown's thrust is the "concern" is the "same" technology in your phone is possibly that of the military's.
How is it not fashion to justify the current trade war?
I always make a reference of their experiment when I am at a mall where those glass sealed ecospheres are sold. I think, âoeWith a battery powered arc and a better guess as to Earthâ(TM)s early atmosphere, and I could have some friends...if I lived long enough!â
Fit? Like a hat. Like a glove. Like a litany of descriptors of which an expressed incredulity is shamelessly and willfully ignorant because poopy zombie heads prefer narratives over facts, zero-sum scenarios, and secretly harbor doubts of inadequacy when challenged to be equitable which diverse, natural environments and tribalism conspired to prevent for most of humanity's time on earth, and, quite recently, is more imminently achievable than ever before.
In other words, go play Risk with someone who is not bored by it. AFA HK? Mainlanders just want to shop for goods western companies have yet to price at a point acceptable to producers, or the Party is reluctant to grant mass distribution for many reasons related to distributions of wealth. Besides, the locals are not thriving with its inflation and Britain turned HK into an advertising center for pubescent males as well as a sex-worker trap. AFA Taiwan? The proximity of the island, its orientation to the mainland as far as development, its cultural ties versus advantages of trading with the west...not policies solved with armed conflict. I mean...what is your idea? Hypothetically...were China to land boots on Taiwan, can America's position be to send soldiers and material just off the coast of China? Do you look at a map, or assume most Americans do not when harping about Taiwan? Historically, Japan was guilty of imperial ambitions, and China's alliance with Russia and America's defeat of the Japanese ended all of that.
The most annoying aspect of engaging with the likes of posts like yours is the utterly convenient assertions made which wholly ignore colonialism, the world wars, and how significantly shattered were the economies of Russia and China after the WWII. The US' development of the Philippines is a shambles and a farce after seventy years: A sex-worker trap and shopping mall in the north, an "exotic" SCUBA resort in the middle, and a southern end so impoverished that Muslims have gained a foot-hold because when you have nothing at all, praying five times a day has an appeal.
China is rapidly expanding its economy through infrastructure development (e.g. residential towers, roads, bridges, trains) all around the world (those islands involve trade, not tactical position, but America's business interests are military matters, huh?) while America consumes at levels no other developing economy can afford in terms of engineering or natural resources and demonstrate progress through failed loans and McDonalds (retail outlets).
I didn't come with a VPN because I wanted to see what my students saw. Sometimes it's not China blocking access, by the way. And before China, in Saudi Arabia, I was monitored by some entity who believed Slashdot was worth automatically downloading and my account was suspended for a time.
China does not conduct foreign wars, and its territorial disputes are slow, negotiated processes. I have never heard as much hawkish, red-scare nonsense as I have for the past year. But such cycles are not new. The loudest, bullying voices are largely the same types asserting weak people hide behind victimhood only a few years ago.
Help Us! Our elections are not safe! And it's not our fault! A Blue-wave is coming, finally, and Putin's control of our Commander-in-chief will be stopped...Just in Time! Russia is to blame! Their hackers are in control! All Russian hackers are so powerful, Zuckerberg is helpless! Jeff Bezos seems like a responsible robber baron! Twitter is necessary for democracy! And Freedom! And collecting, collating, and correlating consumer patterns to maintain quarterly projections, debt mechanisms, supremacy and exceptionalism to continue to police the world of its weapons we sold them! Mass shooting drill in the high school cafeteria! Russia causes acne! China invented wrinkles! Buy American Only! Cheap, foreign labor is not responsible for low inflation! I like three-car garages, a Winnebago, and a Jet-ski! My per-capita usage of energy, water, and sugar is ordained in Thessalonians 13:4! Gay people should still be forced to hide! Women once ruled the world and tortured men and this is the lesson of animal husbandry! The White Goddess won't let you smoke a cigar in the house! Young people might should lose their lives, or at least a limb, or two, for a reasonable capital gains tax! Elon Musk has gone too far! Alcohol may be more harmful than marijuana, but I go to work with a hang-over instead of taking a day off to *quote* smell the roses *end quote*
Certainly not rare on/., but by proportion to Jobs's threads, can feel negligible. Anyone asserting Woz has not "done" anything since the ][ and its disk operating system has not read enough about what the ][ was (engineering wise) and should not forget Gates bought his DOS from a married couple. Gates wrote a BASIC, to be fair. But how did Gates' millions to commoditize education pan out?
What's Woz done, lately? Pffft That da Vinci guy? He hasn't done crap since the Mona Lisa.
The summary, for crying out loud, characterizes this as a social justice effort. I doubt Woz collects a dime. A comparison to Trump U. is a stretch. When Woz starts hawking faulty transistors to S. Africa, maybe then it's an analogue. Woz chose to teach fifth grade for how many years? Woz is a softie. A Woodstock-inspired dreamer.
Whose father empowered him to task electrical engineering from its molecular underpinnings to its architectural limits. If you haven't read Woz' book and have come on to this thread to share your opinion, please choose to masturbate on another site.
Likely not news to any Slashdotter, but the rumor I heard when BING came around was BecauseIt'sNotGoogle. Microsoft's ambition was to corral the web through its.net domains and services, but failed. I have always tried to be vigilant about comparing go-fers since '96. Dogpile wasn't as relevant as I had hoped. I was a Google-booster when Yahoo (recall powered by HP?) and Alta-Vista failed to identify paid listings and was impressed by Bing's early image searches, but was still "loyal" to Google and volunteered my time to assist its image search (if anyone remembers that).
And then along came FaceBook in '05, and by '08, I was dismayed to see how many personal photos were behind its walls. I groused about J-Stor before Lessig paid public attention (but was awakened by his first presentations about copyright) and that inherently non-egalitarian and isolationist trend that sent Aaron Schwartz over an edge.
The commoditization of the web is truly painful to have lived through, but I'd be a fool to think another outcome is likely. Between then and now, an interim of dead-links (or forward to a hosting company) is a cold, cold feeling, but a tropical zone compared to the efforts to remove a uniform resource locater from users. TRON was supposed to be fiction;)
Enterprise based in the west seeking advertising revenue by collecting, collating, and correlating consumer profiles in foreign countries cannot assert its servers be without audit and oversight by sovereign nations-- Yahoo, some eighteen years ago submitted to conditions of oversight of servers physically located in China, as has Microsoft's Bing and Skype. Silicon Valley's "Social" media (and its means of hardware/software) is America's latest, greatest export of technological superiority and it is not inherently benign. Data to conclude who buys what and, most importantly, when (seasonal trends) is a significant market advantage impacting every aspect of finance.
What 'Muricans, left, right, or center, readily and casually qualify as repression is a difference of cultural and political actuality. The Chinese people are not innocents awaiting the savior of American sensibilities any more than Americans require a Communist party to remedy its razor-thin margins of two-party partisan politics.
subjects and citizens, largely men victimizing and predating women, was not sufficient cause to employ a "force", but harm of the nationhood is.
I have come to new levels of disdain for bureaucrats of "free market" nations (and many regular folks) who justify the ambitions of trans-national corporations (protected by limited liability) collating and correlating consumer profiles (akaYou-Are-the-Product) but insist less developed economies allow such vital statistics be collected by western corporations.
But of course I support securing admin directories and increasing awareness of manipulation (such as phishing), but as another poster has dismissed the very term cyber as hopelessly dated and ignorant, I am alarmed by the complete lack of specificity by the given descriptions.
does not convince me of a proof of concept as much as a FUD campaign to attract attention to its ancillary claims of assisting film direction and self-driving cars and the latest battleground of chip makers.

The web's search for mechanisms of underwriting is reflected in the screen's "real estate" beginning with AOL's valuations that were sufficient to merge with Time/Warner and navigation was compromised by strategic ad placement informed by users' studies-- the screen was so crowded out, advertisers sought as many inadvertent clicks as purposeful ones. Notions of micro-payments were floated before web-counters could ever be accurate, and the bubble burst.
Followed by a renaissance of white-space: Google, Craig's List, & Wikipedia. I have this fantasy that everyone working at Wikipedia should lease and control Alphabet for three years and vice-versa;)
Followed by FlashSplash, a spectrum auction, and Analytics-- which was addressed by lobbyists, resulting in Cambridge that quickly corrupted because...it was an artificial solution to underwriting. One reason Google recently could defer Congress is it already addressed its monopoly with Alphabet.
The terms: externality, extractive economies, and (the most harrowing and dreadful and hopeful) late-stage capitalism will be addressed by generations as creative as our own with DARPA's fail-safe network that is obviously a useful and significant tool for those generations. I am perplexed by how the character of a home-brew innovation is marshaled by profit-seekers to fashion a globe of "clouds" and thin-clients, but am reluctant to assert any technology is not so yoked and potentially transcendent
How is this not simply Twitter asserting a new initialism to avoid potential patents and licensure? And simultaneously seeking growth in less developed economies? Platforms based on social connectivity "harvest" data by XML that is useful to what enterprises? What agencies of security? Metadata, its frames and categories, is a developing comprehension and its assignments blur the lines between enterprise and politics.
A growing number of people advocate to step away from being the "product" of these enterprises-- so long as a western corporations seek growth in developing economies, how can the information they sell to business interests outside that developing economy not be seen as advantage seeking and extractive?
In a word: Shareholders...America's "interests" are globally framed, beginning with Tripoli, expanded and fluidly emphasized. As far as a legal standing...another poster listing Sony's subsidiaries has basis.
As far as popular appeal? It's Hollywood we're talking about!
Yet I agree discriminating transnational corporations from domestic politics is not a difference other multinationals are incentivized to present rationally when media market shares are more important.
I disagree with posters asserting ABC's reportage is reasonable which conflates (purposefully or not) partisan, personality politics with issues of trade and national security. An insistence the stalemate of war games is preferable to trade and diplomacy is recklessly hawkish and demonstrably FUD given cyber attacks are economic and Stuxnet disabled a nuclear payload for the "rocket man".
hole? Hole versus Loop changes the framing of a pragmatic (scientific/linguistics) model to one of security-- as in a weakness, or exploit. And likely a framing IP holders promulgate.

Hypotheses non fingo I have not as yet been able to discover the reason for these properties of gravity from phenomena, and I do not feign hypotheses.

You are not missing anything. An ounce of wit is worth a pound of wisdom. Claims and counter-claims are not neat and linear problems confined to ideal individuals. Were you observation trivial, all the jokes made by framers of the discipline of Economics would not exist.
Old news, really, but what the American people don't know about Chinese culture is why moronic posts about organ harvesting, and "human rights abuses" are as perennial as the grass on/.
China's firewall prevents western corporations from denying the government vital and private information of its citizens. Soon, a generation will have passed since Yahoo first agreed to grant this access to its servers residing on Chinese soil. It is a simple proposition: Want to Do Business in China? Agree to oversight.
The western default is Why Would Any Country Deny Google/FaceBook/Amazon? And most of the world has acquiesced to this seemingly innocent proposition of dominance. Yet, everyday westerners learn of some new way their private data is used without their permission or comprehension.
About Permission: Imagine a TOS agreement written in Chinese or Russian on every website you see that's accompanied by pervasive multimedia advertising insisting you massacre your indigenous peoples, force minorities to live in ghettos, bankrupt a middle class when hospitalized, require three times more food and eight times the energy, recklessly endanger another with commodity-based weapons and force your daughters to choose between 4/5th pay, domesticity, or sex work.
