My impression is that in China it varies a lot by industry and location. Even in Shanghai, I've come across offices closing at 4PM with a 2 hours lunch break.

Docker images package the entire environment that an application needs to run, but to do that they contain precompiled software for a specific CPU architecture, so they can't help you jump across architectures. Not even a full VM allo

One issue is that your comment sounds a bit hyperbolic. For example, China criminalizes thought? It certainly does not criminalize thought as such. About 'working together with our allies'... Some will argue the 'West' h

I don’t know the context of Virginia Woolf’s comment, but in the case of fiction, I don’t think that a book about war is necessarily more important than one about facial hair grooming. Even in non-fiction, is a shallow and sensationalistic

Imagine a CSV parser written in Java. I can imagine quite well that it would rarely need updates, as CSV does not evolve and I find it reasonable to write such code with no external dependencies except the Java standard library, which almos

I might be wrong, but I have the definite impression that semantic CSS was invented mainly by people working in publishing, so typical semantic class names map to content types you would create in a CMS. The developer mainly controls the C

Lately I’ve been intrigued by https://every-layout.dev/ and so-called ‘intrinsic’ CSS approaches. It’s like having utilities for whole layout chunks, instead of single properties. I would describe it as trying to extract wh

I doubt that’s true. Even I could make sense of the sentences. Of course it takes some time, but I found it quite clear most of the words are based on either French, Latin, English, German or Italian, and if you know these languages and you
