https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_island_chain CCP try to break US's seal, guess you forgot U.S. military bases around the world.
yup, and we need to think about the timeline. At very early stage of this story, only limited phones support NFC, So wechat/alipay can quickly occupy the market with the QR base solution.
The point is the QR based wechat payment is available for all kind of phones and it's available early than apple pay or google pay. Some merchant like a fruit stand can accept a QR payment, and I don't think they can afford a post machine.

Yeah, same here, gmail is the last result in my try. Oh, as a gmail user, why not it ranked as number 1? I don't care the GM news : ) I think people have different standard for a good/bad search result.
Re:Is China Ground Zero for a Future Pandemic? (2017) on Thursday March 19, 2020 @01:51PM (#22629867)
People are blaming China didn't do proper job in the initial one month, but ignore what US did barely nothing in the following two months with knowing it's a dangerous virus.

And also they think one organization can know everything and recognize a global Pandemic just with a few cases. Oh man, if this kind of decision maker existed, We should do whatever we can to bring him/her to the coding industry. We will have bug-free softwares with his/her insight.

Yes, this is a well designed system that letting the "poors pay for riches". All the customers pay for the system, and only high incomes can easily use the benefit.
