Someone got lost on their way to their 2017 reenactment session

What is 'Good' software in your book, let alone great?

Comparing languages with types to languages without types is like comparing conservatism to liberalism. Less rules = more change. How much of your newfound liking for typescript can be attributed to 'realizing' it's better and how much of it is simply because you're getting older?

Never since I'm not American, but if I were I'd use a calculator. I think this is primarily bad for kids who have to do miles to feet conversion in math problems. It could even be lowering math scores, who knows.

I agree, but the odds of switching the default base to either is extremely low.

It's not great. We have a base 10 number system so everything should be in powers of 10. Not too familiar with my 528 multiplication tables.

This comment is not going to look great when/if the term 'Han Supremacy' becomes recognized as hate speech

Sorry, my han supremacy leaked through.

I would have just spray-painted the han supremacy equivalent of a swastika onto a few walls, but there's no such thing. No Chinese KKK to join either. We really are lagging behind the west!

You referring to hanzi as kanji is more or less the same as someone referring to a chinese person as a japanese person.

First of all, you're looking for the word 'equivalent', not corollary. Secondly, a talented lawyer could make a convincing legal argument for anything. The holocaust was legal. So really, the morality of the act is everything. Sure in practice, children are supposed to be held for 72 hours, but in reality it can be much longer. I'm not sure if I'm addressing your claims because you're using a bunch of big words, and I'm not sure if you're trying to say what they actually mean, so thats what I got.

Okay, but in this case I'm not saying there's whataboutism in your argument. The point I'm trying to make is that if you're powerful enough, you can make human rights abuses and then get away with it scot-free and that America helped set this precedent.

Download the league client if you want to be scared straight about ember. Resource usage gradually ramps up until by the 5th game the client is using more RAM than the game itself.

The problem is not past sins, its past sins that have yet to be atoned for. Conditions for Native Americans are still inexcusable up to this day.

Be real. They don't/didn't

lots of prisoners, shortage of labour, this also sounds like the US-Mexico border and the shortage of farm workers

How did we go from 'more lenient war indemnities' and 'false flag operations are bad' to German and Ottoman occupation?

DAMN! What a beautiful curb your ____ moment!

The British did more empire building in 2-3 hundred years than the Chinese did in a millennium!

Supposedly educated? That pretense has all but fallen off. The only difference between here and reddit is that people THINK they're educated.

'Pale in comparison' is kind of icky sounding...

You're not addressing the point about immigration laws not being universally recognized as moral and just.

What about child migrants? You're meaning to tell me that its morally just to intern preteens because they broke your immigration law? To force children to appear before a judge that are so young that they have to draw a cross as their signature? What's grosser here?

Just another way for criminals to excuse themselves of their crimes. Imagine if you said this to a black person in the context of slavery

What is the difference in real terms between the border camps and forced labour camps? The labour? Taking bets that these camps introduce forced labour like the Nazi camps did. Odds stop at the decade.

If puppet governments don't count as colonialism, then the British were not very colonial and the Japanese did not colonize Manchuria.

The Japanese were interned during WWII, illegals are in camps now, and the Chinese will likely be soon. Puerto Ricans STILL can't vote.

Its important to build your argument from sturdy facts, so that big bad reality can't huff and puff and blow it all down!

If you think the nine dash line is comical, you're going to LOVE the British drawn India-Pakistani border with the most important Sikh holy site in muslim majority Pakistan! After you have a chuckle at that, you can ask the native americans how much fun they had with map drawing lunatics during the colonization of the Americas.

Han Supremacy. I can't take these clowns seriously.

Also, quite amusing you gave it a grade of A+. Can you define your scale? What constitutes A+ and is that the highest rating? Is this really the best example of projection you've ever seen?

I think this is precisely the problem. Sure, you can make incremental improvements to existing systems, but what if all existing systems are bad? Once in a while, you have to design a totally new system based on concepts and metaphors that everyone understands.

Han supremacy? Laughably absurd. Just because some other cultures have a history of thinking they're better than everyone else doesn't mean that every culture does. Accounts of what China and the West thought of each other survive from the era of Marco Polo. The Chinese thought of Western Civilization with equality and respect. The West's opinion on the Chinese? Barbarians.

Every country has its bigots, but suggestions that a country that just came out of hundreds of years of institutional racism from the Qing and then the British opium wars has a deliberate agenda based on race supremacy just sound like projection to me.

Confront the mirror.

I think I just found the linguistics equivalent to 'All asians look alike'
