But the big bad USA is still much much worse than China let us not forget!

"You can't encrypt SD cards."

Right there she throws any accountability that she has any idea what she's talking about regarding encryption out the window.

Non-competes may be legal but they almost never hold water, especially if you're new job is in a different state.

I know this was Washington, and I'm unfamiliar with the laws there, but I know in California it's nearly impossible to enforce a non-compete clause. [Here's a good read on the topic.](http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/09/business/noncompete-clause...)

I mean cool story bro but wat about the more-than-less-than-lethal weapons manufacturers?

They basically need this feature: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/onedrive-online...

Totally agree though. I'm not going to pay for a TB of storage until I can moves files I don't need on my SSD anymore (ie RAW photos I've developed) into Dropbox and have them removed from my computer seamlessly.

Sooooo easy to implement, just upload the file. When it's done, run an md5 on the local and the cloud, if same then delete local.

Big Ole Asterisk for this by the name of PPP (Purchasing Power Parity)

PPP is very useful to make comparisons about standards of living and affordability of different regions, but it's pretty much useless in measuring a nation's total economic output for global comparison.

While it's useful to say somebody making US$10k a year in China has the same real purchasing power as somebody making US$50k in the US and US$70k in Germany it's totally meaningless when comparing country's economies on a whole against each other.

China is still a very very long way away from overtaking the US or the EU (if you count that as a country which people seem to do) in actual real GDP.

This whole "revaluation" is some of the biggest bunch of click bait trolling I've ever seen. Appeals to the uneducated masses though I presume.
