Peaches are from the great country of China. Very popular and important in culture. Export may be the best solution. However, cultivar matters, and it may be too late in this case.

AirPods Max synthetic fabric is not comfortable to touch face. Hope Vision Pro has more comfortable materials. Many big headphones have comfortable velour or leather ear pads.

Google's motto "Don't be evil" is not rigorous. Huawei claims something similar recently. The problem is who defines what's good or evil? Every group of people think they are noble, and the enemies are evil.

Is this a big government thing that violates individual freedom? I wonder how people handle this successfully and avoid abuses. Which states are better? Former Singapore prime minister Lee Kuan Yew often mentioned Asian family values. I used to think it’s a joke, but am starting to like it.

Years ago I saw a flyer of Justin.tv, thought it's an amateur college student TV project, and didn't see any potential. Now it's one of my favorite startup stories, due to the wild start and huge impact. Live broadcasting has become a red hot social medium, especially in red China.

Your comment is fairly funny too. Tencent's balls are in Chinese government's hands. You are wishing the Chinese government had the balls.

Apple will win this battle. WeChat is tightly monitored by the Chinese government for any sensitive info, and heavily censored. It's losing appeal. The problem has grown more and more serious recently since there is a hot political war going on, and messages published on Twitter and YouTube are propagated on WeChat. The YouTube attack on 6/16 is part of the war.
Generally Uncle Donald is right on trade. China's great firewall is a major trade barrier. China's Internet industry does not have foreign competition. Uncle Sam should be much tougher on trade deals.
Re:$80k/month App Store Scam
on Saturday June 10, 2017 @04:30PM (#14529064)
Historically Apple's primary strength is product quality. This kind of apps should not pass the App Store review. The App Store should not allow ads, since they reduce overall product quality. Google web search is different. Google does not control web contents. Google's primary product/service is the free web search, and they have to make a profit from it. App Store search is a tiny part of Apple's product/service. Apple makes tons of money from other parts.
Steve Jobs was the creative artist in the IT industry, and obsessive in product quality. It may be time to ask the question "What would Steve Jobs have done?"

Re:Tim Berners-Lee envisions a better web
on Sunday April 16, 2017 @01:18PM (#14126497)
The decentralized web grew organically after the initial invention, without an overall designer. The decentralized nature of the web means there will not be an overall designer in the future. The web will never be a clean system. Clean systems cannot be easily disrupted, and do not lead to great innovations.

Given United Airlines' consistent poor service and arrogance for many years, it's time to dismiss the company, re-accommodate and onboard their employees (especially executive managers) to other businesses, perhaps new airlines started by people like Richard Branson.

The goal is solid, but I wonder how it might prevail. The flexibility to change at any time doesn't seem a priority for most people. Most people search for a satisfactory solution and stay with it until it's no longer bearable, or a competitor many times better appears. The same for most things in one's lifestyle.
