NodeJS didn't make those - they'd be around with any nodejs alternative.

btw, nodejs should provide some "isolated" mode (ie run as user "nobody-projectName-userName" - eg. "nobody-react-whatcanthisbee") and do some appropriate group permissions.

basic linux permissions can do a lot...

can't nodejs run default as user "node-<project-name>-<username>"? ie. run the process as "node-react-whatcanthisbee"?

(or provide option to do so using "isolated-node" versions/flags/etc)

that way, a lot of malicious stuff can be blocked with unix/linux basic permissions

(though spectre/etc stuff will be much harder to catch...)

so is the hardware keys the only answer?
would continuing to type or holding the keys after/before entering my password help?

it's not 'inability to regulate', but reluctant to regulate. Just make those environmental groups shut up.

agreed. But China's "quality and quantity" effectively is "as long as there isn't a bloody riot all over the place" :(

and speaking of dissidents, why would Chinese police operate "execution vans"? isn't that to hide execution of key people, whose news of execution may stir the public?

oh thanks for the correction. /s/electorate/gov_officials
isn't it all because there's no election in China?

without elections, why would a gov. official listen to "the people"?

I sure hope so. But China's wasting its energy on:

- cracking down dissidents (no election - no real 'authority', officials don't have any incentives to listen to "the people"^TM)

- handling local politics (again, no election - same PRC ppl)

- deporting N.Korean refugees back to N.Korea (continuing just because Chinas has been doing so - just like PRC praising Mao for Cultural Revolution that killed millions)

but in US, the pressure-flow goes like this:

step1. public pressures on the electorate

step2. electorate pressures on spying agencies

... and step1 is impossible in China

is it related to the term "public servants"?

or stories about gov. employees doing nothing but getting paid?

"cultural relativity" phrase probably wasn't intended to justify "anything is OK"...

so anything is "OK" as long as it has "tradition"? A mafia mob family with a "tradition" in killing ppl around is OK because it's "tradition"?

What's next? Claiming that Nazi killing was a "cultural thing"?

you're really optimistic...

why would PRC provide a stable "work" and "exercise" routine when it can simply use a death-van?

PRC is wiser to do a quick off-with-their-heads when it wants to shush someone

Re:The NSA’s Hidden Spy Hubs in Eight U.S. Cities on Monday June 25, 2018 @10:53AM (#17392853)
well good luck trying on those countries!

with PRC operating quick-death-"police"-vans, aren't you telling the intercept reporters to risk their lives?

maybe you should try...?

For south koreans, it's all about "can I go to gangnam within 1 hour?"

Most jobs, private tutors for kids, etc - are near/inside gangnam.

Any improvements for this metric (eg. a high-speed train) will fix the issue in no time

See "Gwanggyo new town" for example. It was a ghost-town until "new-bundang-line" (a high-speed train disguised as subway) made the trip to gangnam less than 40 min.

another instance where IDEs can help juniors by providing hover-to-show-name/descriptions
+1 on this...

even on Vietnam war, look at the aftermath of US army giving up - for South Vietnamese: mass concentration camps, shoving inside CONEX boxes, a lot of deaths...

...all of this when the war is over and the communist gov. isn't desperate for anything...

...and US media doesn't cover this because Americans want to think "we lost because we were bad (yay justice!), not because we were stupid/weak/etc"

Of course, US army was too desperate & chose to "shoot/bomb whoever (isn't wearing US army uniforms)" - a combination of stupidity / lack of discipline / common sense

standard it might be, but I seriously hope IDEs would give a hint on what to google when a junior sees "<"...

try googling < or "scala <*"...
