>you could just send a beautiful woman to seduce someone important and have a ton less loose ends and they're even advertising these days: http://motherboard.vice.com/read/a-qa-wit…

Unfortunately Nitrous.io does not work in China, neither does any other web based IDE that I know about. While it's true that it's a tough sell for Chinese companies, there are a l…

I met Greg Fisher at a hardware meetup- very, very sharp guy. He is absolutely right about Process trumping Relationships BUT it can be very difficult to establish that process if …

I bought the Gear VR when they just said a Note 4 was needed. Once I got it I found out that of course, this was not the case with my HK bought Note 4. So useless region locked len…

>Nope. Immigrating usually implies permanent residence in the new country, not necessarily getting citizenship. I stand corrected- but expats in the countries they are referred to …

Nonsense. Expat indicates citizenship status. An expatriate is a person temporarily residing in a country other than that of their citizenship. An immigrants on the other hand is a…

Love it. Would be great if you included cutting speeds and lubricants for different materials. Great (and low-conflict) way to quickly qualify new people for machines at Makerspace…

The article sort of misses the real issue- the demographic. The PRD is very young, well educated and highly ambitious. Tokyo has the education, but it otherwise increasingly stagna…

This is already done, they have a huge bank fraud problem.

>This is not true. Wholly foreign owned enterprises have existed in China for many years, and their permissible activities have increased greatly over the last 5 years. The letter …

Baidu translate works great in China and will translate anything you copy to the clipboard automatically. Requires the usual insane Chinese app permissions so Xprivacy or something…

Neck- I fully agree. In a dress shirt it's very noticeable. Bald with a pencil neck looks pretty bad- bald with a thick neck is jacked.

Gmail is now very heavily used in foreign trade in China, by completely blocking it they just necessitated Chinese companies buying VPNs that would never have felt the need before.…

>What Chinese can't do very well in your opinion ? Would be a very long post, it depends in which cities, and which age groups (there is a huge cultural gap with far more risk-adve…

>The West has a “broadcast” view of IP and ownership... China has a “network” view of IP and ownership Probably the best way I’ve heard it described. >You do have to read or speak …

Yeah, and if we use fonts.useso.com is slow outside of China.

We get a fair share of bullshit China speculation on HN- this article is absolutely spot on in every respect. The author deserves a huge amount of credit, it's very, very rare for …

>Large parts of China are still a developing economy. If you’re illiterate, you can’t type, so enabling users to speak to us is critical for helping them find information. Baidu ne…

The vast majority of Chinese I meet here have zero interest in democracy, the few students I do meet who advocate it generally have very little idea of what it actually is. They ha…

>Or just take your same machine tool and make a metal gun? Even in the infancy of the technology home 3D printers are already far more common than home mill/lathe setups and requir…

If you are going for the "shell as a barrel" solution you might as well maximize the utility and make it either silenced (captive piston) ammo: http://www.sadefensejournal.com/wp/?…

>Where's "here"? I lived in Shanghai 3 years I would have put that number pretty close to 0%. Shenzhen. You're right, 10% is being generous but a lot of long time expats pick up Ma…

This is absolutely correct. Only about 10% of the successful long-term foreign businessmen I know here speak passable Chinese. Chinese love when you speak the language- but that do…

I wish someone would make one of these that works consistently and reliably in China.

I used to volunteer teaching English to Chinese kids from migrant families (displaced within China). One of the ways I illustrated the value of English was to print several objects…
