If your government can pass laws to allow themselves to block any Internet services, it may as well go ahead pass laws to prevent people from circumventing that block.
So, the only defense you have, is to prevent your government from issuing the first law.
So the "consumer" is the viewer, and "creator" is the video maker/uploader.
Well, that make more sense when you put those two words inside the YouTube circle.
Thank you and corobo for explaining.
It's funny to think that some people think they can be called "creator" just because they're making and uploading video to the Internet.
Yes, some of those videos are fun to watch, maybe informative, but to be honest, I don't think they "created" anything more than other media did, so why give them that title?
"Producers" maybe better?
Mentions:
> Currently WebAssembly has no threads, but they are on the roadmap. Most Go code can run fine on a single thread. The only drawback is that “sysmon” is not available, thus there is no preemption of goroutines.
Actually, sometimes, when I tired writing code, I will just go hangout with my friends, have some little chat or something.
Other hobbies also helps, like photography, cooking or just staring at sky, watch the cloud floating by. If you have a small astronomical telescope, then you can even see the stars (Well, plants actually and nebula if you do photography).
The key point is: Don't just write program, have some life. Good life will eventually give you better code in return.
Go slightly south, there is other country that blocked Telegram long ago without notify anybody.
Awesome!
For example, the GC: I been struggling to reduce the memory consumption of my tiny TCP keep-alive server knowing that if I made it in C, it could only use few hundreds of KB tops. But in Go, it's 10MB just for holding Go Routines and replying ping.
So I reimplemented it with Rust, voilà! 500KB RES. Now I can put it on my router :D
UPDATE: Maybe the routing is not ready yet, let's wait for a moment and check it out later.
In fact, I also hope they go one step further, publish the result of their investigation and explain it to the public.
As a person who grew up watching a lot's of (pirated) Discovery shows (on provincial TV channel, LOL), I always found people who trying to research something in order to discover the truth are fascinating and made me a big fan of science (despite I did really bad at school).
If scientists in China did figured out and learned what went wrong, they may as well notify the public, it could be very educational maybe even inspiring.

And of course you can down vote, but we will meet again in the next Facebook scandal :)
Many people didn't realize that we still living in a global society that pretty much made by many super large sized Black Pearl[0]s and Jack Sparrow(s) is the captain.
Dear Captain Jack is cool sometimes, and could bring you to the treasure, but you should never trust him that he will taking care of you. In fact, regardless what he said, he don't care about you even a little, all he care about is himself. If you fell off board, he will not bother to save you, unless it's out of coincidence.
So yes, you may follow him closely for an amazing adventure if you want to, but whether or not you will survive in the end, it's all depends on you.
[0] Yes, that pirate ship.
Weird to say but now you know why people in China treasures peace a little bit more than freedom.
Massacres are common during Japanese invasion[0], and nobody stood up for civilians. The result of that was people got murdered village after village and then burned or lefted there for animals.
That collective experience in some degree shaped the political landscape of China today.
CCP currently cannot monitoring all foreign websites, so (currently) I don't think people will be hassled because of few archived comments on HM. But who knows, that may change in the future, and somebody may report you just like what people did during Cultural Revolution[0]. So, keep yourself anonymous under another name is always important.
In China, domestic websites are required by law to verify you and record your true personal identity (Phone number for example) when you trying to post anything on it, so you can't be anonymous. When I using that kind of website, I never do anything sensitive (Or even post anything useful).
We had few "VR experience center"s in our little city, they were popular when they just opened, but now most of it are closed.
So, I think "blown away" is not enough, usefulness is important.
When you talking about async/await, you're actually talking about asynchronization, and when you talking about goroutine, you're talking about parallel (which is a selling point of Go).
If the thread that responsible for executing the async/await blocks, then the entire progress/thread rely on that async/await will block. So if you want to comfortably use async/await, the entire call stack must be build for it, and that can be a huge challenge for the ecosystem of that language.
goroutine resolved that problem by spawn a new system thread so the rest of the progress will not be effected too much by the block. Go also resolved that problem by wrapping IO on top of an internal async API so basic IO operation will not cause actual block for too long.
Shopping cart added.
So yeah, may be now it's "for non-offensive uses only".
Few years in, it will be "human control the kill trigger".
Then, eventually, it will be "human deploy the device, then it fires and kills all by itself, just like a fire-and-forget missile, plus it can hit multiple targets and be reused."
The dark side of technical advancement.
Well that was heart warming :)
It's easy to ask a Chinese on Twitter or Facebook or even on Youtube comment section.
And as a Chinese, I can tell you about my feeling on this: I Don't Like It.
I will one day truly respect CCP AFTER they remove themselves from The Constitution.
Does this mean anything? You also breathe polluted air like "most people", do you want new fresh air then?
The reason of "__INSERT ACTION HERE__ won't practically have any impact on 'privacy' or 'human rights concerns'" is because "most people" unaware the importance of their privacy, NOT because their privacy is not important.
So, their is a choice to make: To make people understand the importance of their privacy; OR, continue selling this unawareness (to make people ignorant). Which way you go?
You can still found some of it by googling keyword "新疆断网", and Google Translate them if you interested to read.
In summary: In the first few days, people miss the access; Then, they built their own network, providing news, BBS, downloading and even online gaming services etc.
If they had enough time, I could assume they will build a complete alternative of China's Internet, just like what happened in the China's Internet then the access to the true Internet is limited.
But "enough time" is what they don't have, when the access been restored, most local websites are faded.
It's not very logical.
By definition, the word "Law" means: a system of rules that are created and enforced through social or governmental institutions to regulate behavior[0]. Who's behavior? Trees? Mountains? No, people's behavior, people who living inside the territory of the country.
So, the right way to put should be: China's laws are more restrict towards foreigners, which is reasonable, because:
1) Foreigners contributes less to the society than locals in general.
2) Foreigners have no proxy or benefiter in the government system, so nobody will speak for them.
Isn't this also true when you join any group of people who sharing the same goal?
For example: A soccer or football team or gym? Or maybe a book club even.
I mean, if I have a Tinder profile, I will expecting people who tapped me are all womans. So when I found out it's actually a guy, I will be surprised and feel wired.
I mean, if something is harm to you, you may need to consider stop doing it before you been damaged permanently. Reduce the volume in this case for example.
It's not saying you should stop listening music or enjoying your life, but you need to protect yourself from been hurt by doing those. After all, how can somebody listening music after became a deaf?
And, Go had many third-party Router, ORM, Websocket and Template Engine implementations out there, many of them are also proud to be ... independent, so you're less likely to end up in a Dependency Hell.
Go standard library is not there to force people to use it, rather, it's there to setup a standard so different people can work together more effectively.
So:
> in what sense is the stl really complete? what modern web app could you write with just the stl?
1, It's huge, but not complete;
2, You can actually do it with just Go standard library (No third-party package) if you REALLY wants to. It's not very hygiene though, you will end up wrap many things up for better project structure (And resulting many packages that you might later proudly put on your GitHub page): Use net/http as HTTP server (Request handling and parsing); use net.Dial to connect database and cache (And write their protocol); html/template for outputting rendered HTML landing page; encoding/json for parsing and outputting API request and respond.
