BYD is already facing scrutiny for running Evergrande like accounting, and a lot of political pressures from other Chinese manufacturers. The risk is that they collapse like Evergrande, and that they drag public debt into it. The CCP might prop them up, so it light be safe. A car is different from a book, because you need lifetime service for it. If they go under, you might lose access to parts.

If he was busy, then he/they don’t think that BRICS summits are very important.

Not really. I watch some utubers Chinese expats who’ve been throwing the rumour around, So I was trying to call corroborate.

Now I think that skipping the BRICS summit was likely a silly faced saving ploy because Modi was already in a state visit, or is a Chinese move to distance themselves from BRICS (the Chinese might not need it)

I am an amateur on the topic though.

What experience are you referring to?

It’s not more left, it’s more diverse. There his re to us than left or right. That 1 or 2 dimensional chart doesn’t capture us.

Getting to deprecate legacy support… Yes please, let me get my eraser.

I find most tech debt resolution adds code though.

Sweden could be added to that list.

Mabe the rumours of him losing power are true? Does the CCP have a statement?

Are you asking for advice, or are you asking to justify the “office” meme?

I like being exposed to opinions I don’t agree with and don’t like - it makes me feel like I am not just hiding in my bubble. I will admit that there are anti-capitalist threads in there that I agree with.

Germany can still be an input as it is more recent, even if it isn’t the original source.

On top of that, there will likely be a lot of foreign contractors without much pressure to produce quality results.

Probably the suggestion is related to authoritarian corruption, rather than average intelligence.

I think that if the glorious leader really believes in the project, them it may getsonw reasonably well, so it should be safe.

Bush Jr was a st a natural dummy. No dementia required.

This sounds like an absolute nightmare. Listen to the techbro leaders talk about the general population, and imagine them owning what manages your brain… Ieam electrically, as opposed to indirectly.

Ignorant foreigner question: how important is myticism to modern Chinese? Some expat utubers go on tangients discussing events from mystical perspective (horoscopes, symbol interpretation, etc) as though it is more than a curiosity; are such approaches relevant to modern Chinese, or is the T mainly the old guard.

You specifically challenged the CIA for what then? So you can rationalize “compulsory reeducation”?

You are right except for one thing. Trump likes to show off when he wins, and Trump is never there for the real negotiations.

Give him his win (narcissistic fulfilllment) and them move on to the real negotiations with the adults.

He doesn’t want to give Trump anything to bully on in public, now that he has made a concession.

What is this CIA stance? Is there a link?
