Re:Trump gives nod to Oracle buyout of TikTok in US on Wednesday August 19, 2020 @11:22AM (#24211300)
that doesnt really matter too much. US advertisers won't be able to pay tiktok. Basically 0 money for bytedance, while plenty of trafic expenses if they keep servicing.

And ofc, apple and google can simply remove the app from your phone.

What? its not worse than a ban, its so not worse that ByteDance could simply not sell its US operations and stop being present in the US, making it just like a ban. A ban would leave no option.

This is pretty much what China does, but for every service.

>I believe pattern matching might land in Java sooner than in Kotlin

Depends on what you call pattern matching. Kotlin had pattern matching from day one, but it's just one level, Java might have it recursive by java 19
