Resistance to triclosan hasn't really been documented (it is the chemical in those soaps, and it is an antibacterial, or maybe a biocide, not an antibiotic):
I'm not sure that is true, the last course of antibiotics I took unsettled my digestive system quite a bit, and I'm not real sure it helped me any otherwise.
Well, I meant that it was open for debate; I would have more clearly expressed myself had I spoke about Google probably being able to make a reasonable case.
Anyway, I'm not trying to be the one who decides if Google is acting in the best possible way (ultimately, it is the people of China who control their own fate; I don't think Google is appreciably adding to their difficulties), I was just pointing out that maybe you should swing the sword of ethics with just a bit less vehemence (or maybe make it clear that you live in a stone house).
Are you so absolutely certain that none of your day to day actions benefit the PRC?
(Or if you want a weaker standard, consider actions that benefit the PRC more than they benefit the people of China; Google can at least argue that they are acting in a way that is a net benefit to the people)
Go calculate the percentage of failed mortgages that were for houses inside of redlines.
The problem in the mortgage sector was related to fictionalized mortgage backed securities backed by fictionalized loans (the really bad MBSs had at least 3 liars for every house, the 'buyer', loan agent and MBS underwriter), not with the government forcing banks into offering people in the neighborhoods they were operating in the same types of loans they offered everyone else.
Why are you simultaneously complaining about my not answering and rhetorical questions? I mostly didn't bother answering because the information is trivially available and you did little (in my eyes) to cast doubt on my statement.
He means reward. Adding "equivalent to " after roughly, and maybe "to a citizen of the countries using those currencies" after EUR might make things clearer.
And I was replying to a comment that was roughly "I want to consume it for free!".
I get that you are pointing out that the discussion is about more than access to the content, but you don't seem to get that I was doing the same thing.

It still probably isn't worth using it.

So your citations are all of localities where your idiots tried and failed?
WE ARE DOOMED!

Might such complaints damage someone's reputation?

Anyway, 4 to 5 times industrial gdp:

(The EU+US industrial composition in millions compared to the PRC industrial composition in millions)
Note that the combined service sectors are more than 15 times larger. We feel that right in our quality of life.
Name the localities you speak of.
I'm willing to trust it a little bit, and it isn't as if the conclusions being discussed here are deep and weighty.
You mean Hacker News, right?

Oops.
Still, I doubt that the sites visited by the 160 million people had a persistent skew in content changes.
Of course, it isn't particularly likely that all 160 million sites introduced popular new mac specific sections.
All of your furniture? Really? Why?
For all the wailing about such trajectories, Western industrial economies still produce 4 to 5 times as much as China's.
Apple is clearly working to limit certain competition on the iPhone. It just isn't illegal.

The part I like best about your line of reasoning is that it applies to your views on Tyson.
It's not a symptom of a country, it's a symptom that there is a group of people in that country that take stupid way to seriously.
It isn't like creation science is a department at most public universities or anything so ridiculous.
You misread my intent.
I imagine that is a generous characterization.
There seem to be plenty of not-even-computer-related engineers and students here (and others too!), if someone reads me in the wrong direction.
The only thing plaguing Intel SSDs is price. And I don't think that particular aspect makes Intel real sad.
If you successfully harass someone using the copyright that you have established over you name, I will give you at least $5.
Personally, I plan to transcend my physical existence and give the world the magical sky being it has been waiting for.
Do be careful. Zombie Holden Caulfield stalks the net protecting innocent corporations from violation.
