What's the circle about?

It feels like the author is talking more about self-hired indie hackers so the payroll doesn't count. But I don't know if that was really a fashion.

I recommend reading TLPI[1] if anyone is willing to jump into the rabbit hole of shell. bash covers a lot of aspects of unix.

What's the data source?

I would love to see more thoughts on interactions e.g. comments, likes. Reusing existing protocols is good but I expect a lot of trouble to implement some common social media features on RSS.

You won't gain much by the combination of golang, sqlite and the cloud. You can't scale out and the cloud layer only makes sqlite slower. I can't see any reason not using RDS other than it's more expensive.

I would only say this is a quick way to run up an application with a cheap VPS for a beginner.

I've never understood why FAANGs are so fond of leetcode. Maybe they just get the headcounts and want a dumb and easy filter to hire some not terrible programmers. And that's part of the reason why the massive layoff is ongoing.

But STAR costs you little time to practice and communication skills will definitely pay off for a programmer.

Replacing US with NK, the comment will never be allowed to post in NK. They don't have an Internet though.

Also your comment is a counter-example for the US's brainwash, if that holds.

When free access to resources, VPNs, open internet, etc. are considered evil in the west?

I doubt you can find any named source in NK

OK...maybe Kim Jong-un himself? At least we can consider him as an authoritative source.

Why this could be better than (x+y)/2, since they both overflows?

> but to be fair I also haven't heard of people suing over that either.

Guess why

Your views of labor law are completely wrong.

> in my second hand experience Chinese worker protection laws are quite strict.

And yes, it's very strict. Lawful working hours are 40 hours per week. Lawfully firing a employee requires higher compensation than US.

Do you really believe above is enforced in China? Next time when you visiting China, ask them if familiar with this quote: laws in China are strictly legislated, commonly broke, selectively enforced. In fact, 996 is a norm and a company that does not require 996 will advertise that when recruiting. Layoff compensation for many people is ZERO because they don't even have social insurance or contracts signed. 100 Chinese Yuan per day, you get it when working and get nothing when leaving. (That's not the case for Foxconn though. I believe everyone working in Foxconn at least has a contract.)

> I just feel really bad for these people. They probably left some country side life making peanuts to go make some real money for a while at a factory and like send their kids to college or whatever - and now westerners are like "no, you shouldn't do that. go back to your bucolic life of poverty. And btw we hate your government". Cool

Thanks, I appreciate that. I (the OP) am that kid though. And I believe getting involved in labor-intensive industries can be a better thing than what it is nowadays in China.

I agree with the rest of your post. Like I mentioned, reasons of the protest are varied.

Not relevant but thanks for the line

I have been expecting this for long

Apple will have a hard time giving up their favorite slave labor

iPhone made in China is no better than the cotton from Xinjiang.

Earlier the reports are workers in the China iPhone factory had a protest and brutal conflict with the local police. Reasons varied from unbearable working condition, the zero-covid policy, and being deceived about the compensation. After the local police oppressed the campaign, the government assigned headcounts to local villages, demanding them to fill in the factory slots. No wonder Apple loves China so much.

Apple and many westerners never understand the risk and the ethics implication of doing business in China. Apple has utilized the cheap labor at a level where can never be possible in the civilized world, as well as making great profit out of the upper class of China, who directly benefits from the oppression system of CCP or part of the party themselves. It turns out that in spite of all values that Apple promotes, it actually cares about nothing but the profit and its comfortable zone in China.

And I will not be surprised Apple will cease the plan in India as soon as China steps back from the zero-covid policy, as if all the blood has not been spilled.
