It is too late to drink when you feel thirsty.

Tiling window manager like i3 in multiple monitors environment is not that convenient as I thought. Most of the time I just use one monitor. Switching workspace between multiple monitors confuses me.

Finally Chinese companies know the feeling of being banned in another country.

I used to version whole home directory, turned to stow + dotfiles recently, reasons:

1. maintaining .gitignore is kind of annoying.

2. I don't need all my configuration files on some machines, say a remote sever, you can just stow what you need instead of adding many files to your home.

3. it's not convenient setting up an environment when you already have many files in home, for git clone to a directory not empty is not allowed.

It seems that you can search for the full text of the webpages you saved, which is the best part Google can do.

I am using pinboard at present and decide to give Google Save another try even though there is no urge need for this.

Thanks for your info. As a graduate student major in civil engineering in China, people around me come across the firewall when they need Google Scholar, which is rare also. Sometimes they come to me for help to get access to sites like Google Scholar. But, believe me, they don't care about what is GFW or anything about the censorship. yes, the big brother is watching and they want to be good netizens. Traditional industries like CE don't depend on internet much, so GFW does not have much influences on them. Even to programmers in internet companies, I doubt the proportion of people accessible to the free internet. Above is based on personal experiences and may not be that precise. Things are complicated in China anyway.

It's for business of course, mainly international companies I guess. Local companies don't need to cross the firewall. Employees can only use these lines in the office. Actually most Chinese are not aware of the existence of the Great Firewall (GFW), really bad.

They will, one day. anyway Gmail was gone, which I think is the most impossible site to be blocked.

PS: nice to see you here. :)

Linux is really not an easy thing for people working in Chinese government.
