A fellow HackerNews reader had a great quote, I don't remember the source.
You're basically complaining that China has too many people and would presumably want that some of them wouldn't exist.
His quote was: "If you think a certain group of people shouldn't exist, how do you select that group of people? And how do you know that you, yourself, shouldn't he a part of that group?".
China's population is a fact. In the end, you can't argue against facts. And in their current circumstances, China, a much poorer per capita country than the US, is willing to sacrifice a bit of their profits for long term stability.
>Rich countries don't have more babies than poor ones, its the opposite.
Rich countries are market democracies. They have the proper social constraints.
In a market democracy it's more like you described, but not entirely, there are plenty of people who abuse the welfare systems to have as many children as possible for the tax credits and other benefits.
Clearly you don't understand the mentality of developing countries. Do you think they are socialist utopia?
I am from India. And the main sentiments for people having more children were - high infant mortality (not knowing who will live to be old, which is still high for India but falling fast), more hands mean more money in home (less people to hire in the farm).
The "more hands mean more money" is exactly what market economy gets you, not a centrally planned communist economy. But with rising standard of living and cost of raising a child, people are moving away from the old mentality.
Go read about the "1 child policy" and get back to me when you have a clue what you're talking about. "Enabling", sheesh. You're enabling them through buying iPhones made in China, not through this agreement. You're so way off in this discussion that I don't think it's worth continuing it.
The "1 child policy" is what you get when you have an authoritarian government instead of democracy.
China doesn't have a properly functioning government, therefore they have to resort to crazy policies like that.
And I don't think we should be enabling through trade either, ideally we would jack up tariffs massively on countries with poor human rights, excessive pollution, etc.
As the author of the article, I might be able to clarify a bit ;-). It is not absolutely clear to me what the bug is. It only appears on a few devices so it is not a trivial bug. It seems to be triggered by certain sizes and probably how the block is placed in memory. To answer your question: yes, the return value of memmove seems to be wrong in some cases. ChengYi He's analysis indicates that an ARM/Neon instruction is skipped which could explain the miscalculation. Why it skips the instruction (more precisely, why PC is not incremented correctly after returning from an exception) isn't clear to me or ChengYi He.
The exception is related to emulating NEON instructions. So we are talking about very low-level exceptions (or signal handling) - at kernel/C library level.
I am not sure if this exception is the cause. And even if you could examine the assembler code, you will not be able to fix it: the affected devices have reach end-of-life years ago, and vendors will not fix the bug :-( The only chance for a fix is that app developers implement a workaround.
I'm Kenneth at Realm. As realm databases are files on the phone's file system, you can use the common classes for manipulating them. To do a backup, the NSFileManager class might be useful (the copyItemAtURL method might be what you're looking for). See https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/... for details.
If you're lucky, you have an advisor that teaches you much more than science and research. My advisor taught a lot about how to work in a political environment (yeah, universities are highly political environments).
If you are very lucky, you have an advisor that asks you to teach. By teaching undergraduate student, you learn all the small details of your scientific area. I was lecturing in physical chemistry as a graduate student - and even supervising undergraduates - and after a couple of years I knew all the fundamentals of physical chemistry by heart. That knowledge helped me through writing my thesis.
agree...Jasymchat is more a light-weight alternative which works well for most undergrad course work. And it is also mobile...but for serious work definitely suggest Octave.
Often (non-IT) companies' firewalls do not allow anything but HTTP and HTTPS traffic and you have to go through proxies. That implies that you cannot get to the outside using SSH. In my days as a freelance consultant, I used Corkscrew (http://www.agroman.net/corkscrew/) to get SSH access.
