In about less than 4 years it will be shown this was used for completely other purposes against political enemies, but accepted because they were your political enemies. And then it will be used against you, after which there's an outrage thread and "how could this have have happened???" posts.
The Three-Body Problem.
This is correct. There is no logical reason or empirical evidence that opening country to mass immigration will help fixing native birth rates. Problems such as housing will just increase as there's more competition for a 5 square meter flat.
There is no reason to believe that 'immigration' can fix the native birth rates of South Koreans. This is an implicit assumption dreamt by the utterly deranged.
If you are a programmer, I recommend trying to write the textbook material out in a language of your choice.
lol at people lapping this article up to support their brainwormed political opinions. i actually live here, no homelessness has been ended.
The Crowd only "Believes the Science" when it aligns with their political goals, simple as.
Not only British, Nazi scientists were welcomed too.
Given month of incubation time (from when you catch it, and are asymptomatic, but still spread it), it's not unreasonable to assume for sake of alternate models it's been spreading since November and people just thought of it as case of particularly bad cold. Only know of it since it got too big to hide by Chinese govt.
Python would be my suggestion considering your interest in AI/ML. Also you might find the book recs here good: https://teachyourselfcs.com/

Wonderful recommendations, I am going through it right now myself.
"Now" Technically US has gone through two civil wars.
It wasn't a snark; I have yet to witness a liberal definition of totalitarian state that's not a sand castle. A liberal state is a schizo state that has no positive theory of state so it doesn't have a theory of totalitarian state. It's delusions about how oppressive monarchy was, slightly before they started bloodshedding in the name of raison raisonnante, do not apply here.
What the Chinese have is a formal system, and I can't quite tell if the informal liberal system isn't worse. This was a point of contemplation for Andrei Navrozov as an emigrant from USSR to US in the 1970s in his book "The Gingerbread Race" [1]

"Hickey told a story of how the United States is even losing its submarine fleet. He had a conversation with an admiral in charge of the U.S. sub fleet at the commissioning of the USS Illinois, a Virginia-class attack submarine, who complained that the United States was retiring three worn-out boats a year, but could only build one and a half in that time. The Trump military budget has boosted funding to build two a year, but the United States no longer has the capacity to do high quality castings to build any more than that. The supply chain that could support such surge production should be in the commercial world, but it has been offshored to China." https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/americas-mo...
.. and American infrastructure is in a state of serious decay: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_blackout
Compare this to Chinese infrastructure and engineering: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_island#China
Trading the integrity of military supply chain and infrastructure development for little hedonistic comfort is what'd I'd expect from end-stage liberalism. Just call it what it is, surrendering.
State Department fighting for Muslim rights in China while CIA drone operators bomb them in Middle East is true schizo-politics.
Ipsos pol from July 2019, 90%+ consider country on the right track: https://i.imgur.com/nBuccjq.png
"accurate polls on political topics in totalitarian countries is tricky because the respondents are incentivized/pressured to answer in support of the current regime.
Are we describing China or Brexit/Trump polls from 2016.
What some are failing to do wrt. to US companies is to drop the legal fictions and instead follow the economical laws, and money. The tax-accountant fiction doesn't mean it's not economically supported (by US state). China does it more openly, in US tradition of procedural liberalism requires legal and theoretical fictions to mask what would otherwise be obvious State support.
China's government is responsible only for its population. Moral responsibility isn't universal contrary to what liberalism says. This is a major, morally disarming agent that has turned pathological in NW Europe and US. What imperialism taught China is what the stick-end of liberalism feels like.
"China's integration into the global system was both for their benefit and our benefit."
American manufacturing unavailable for reply.
China is the monkey's paw to Western liberalism.
With US, NATO backing Ericsson/Nokia can be made trans-atlantic military alliance compliant 5G alternative that can rival Huawei.
Currently, the above is not even a policy choice considered openly by Western governments, not that I know of. We are forfeiting technological lead in this domain despite US making the first big steps in same domain in WW II and later with state backing, history plays jokes like that I guess.
Too many people are brain wormed by ideas stemming from liberal philosophies. China is not benevolent, they're rising power. They don't share same ideas of society as we do. Free markets haven't existed in hundreds of years. Yet all are influential ideas that stop us from addressing China realistically. Talk of bringing democracy to China for example is not realistic. The Communist Party has 90%+ acceptance rate by the populace.
True. It's not like when NW Europe cared about pollution when it was gunning for the top of the world. And of course we in Europe and US are making loud noises about pollution after the fact we have made it, so to speak, 'big'. Like another poster pointed out, it's a rather sad attempt to 'pull away the ladder' from still rising nation(s) to use same means to climb the ladder as we in Europe/US did.
I would believe much more into pollution talk by my dear leaders if 1. We were springing up nuclear reactors 2. Stopping third world immigration into Europe 3. Had concrete trade moratoriums against India and China. This would probably cause issues with US defense and military industries though, the situation is rather fragile [1]

I don't understand why this is written in a complaining or condescending tone. As per liberal understanding of history and progress, China was supposed to 'open up'(the silent part: to be open for exploitation by West). China was not supposed to become global techno-military challenger against Trans-Atlantic alliance. Oops, they did.
I wish you the best in trying to convince China of this abstraction called 'free markets', when mercantilism is working extremely well for them, as it did for Europe too. Free trade is installed intrastate in the Empire, such as British Empire with its colonies, but even during this era the externality that Empire projected was that of mercantilism such as East India Company adventures in China. As it is clear, 'free trade' is a weapon of the strong, and strong isn't a word to call US or Europe of 2019. Certainly nowhere near strong enough to force China for free trade regiment.
When US still supported its non-welfare industries (and allowed smoking) they put a man to the moon.
The obvious lesson for any Western state is to formally protect its critical industries. Of course, some brain damaged opposite lesson will be taken, such as 'China must liberalize'; good luck with that gents, LOL.
TDS knows no limits, lol.
I have to assume the absolute dog shit UX of the site is an ironic meta-commentary on its nominal content.
Oh, it's another TDS victim, not surprised.
as opposed to western social media promoting it. hard choice.
