Maybe we just too lazy to find out how bad some idea is. LOL

Yes, it's not very accurate in term of word-by-word translation. Maybe it's for suiting the context and habits.

A strip (条) of news is works better than A line (线) of news in Chinese.

TouTiao is a literal translation of Headline.

（头）Tou = Head; （条）Tiao = Line

Wow, I'm not a game dev pro. But 200 clients + 10K entities could cause that amount of traffic?

How about "throwing the baby out but keeps the bath water"?

Which is more appropriate for this scene I think.

LOL

Why Apple wants to do that?

I mean, if use a tapped Intel chip can keep FBI and NSA away from their door step, they probably more than happy do to that.

Because at the end of the day, most people will only blame Intel, not them.

Ha! That's wrong.

You see, even if "young utility focused entrepreneurs" don't like what CCP says, they can pretend they likes it and help spread it. It's called Lying, but people do it all the time. After that, when those entrepreneurs made enough money, they can live outside China and become a citizen of a country they like.

And lying is enough for CCP (or any government I assume) as long as that lie can keep most people loyal to them.

Also, "Young" is just a nature status, it's mean nothing about people's ideology. Lot's of young people joined Nazi in the old days, don't forget that.

You just notice "Old"? Old usually are not cause any problem, but when you combine old and narrow, that is not a good thing.

It just like Morse Code which designed for telegram operators to send and receive message.

By that time when telegram was new, it was a good invention, everyone who wants to use telegram must know Morse Code. And because of it's designed for telegram, it come with every each bonus to make send and receive telegram faster.

However, one day, a new technology been invented, it's called Telephone. Not long after that, telegram started to fade away.

What fade away with it, is of course, the Morse Code. Because it only good at sending and receiving telegrams which not many people still do today.

Now the PHP. It has a lot of old burdens (To make it good at outputting HTTP respond) and poor design decisions. They need to find a way to organize those things and carefully redesign that language. Then, maybe it can become respectable.

The problem of PHP is it's a old & narrowed language. It been designed to run in as a Web Service dedicatedly, and of course limits it's potential.

It's just like no one had motive to make HTML turing-complete. A language dedicated as a web script is good enough as long as it output web page, right? :(

BTW:

> I claim that PHP’s simpler “think; edit; reload the page” cycle makes developers more productive.

Does this can be simulated by automatically recompile and restart the application? I don't think it can be an serious advantage here.

Bad thing is those Chinese made phones come with their own alternative stuff that worse than Google's, like their own app market etc :(

In China, some phones may annoying user with their own built-in apps or even integrated with AdWare or/and other stuff that will collect your "usage" info. We don't trust those devices in China. But maybe they're better outside? I don't know.

If you want to use Chinese phones as alternative, be picky, use only large international brand, and good luck.

Well, I don't have any experience on Premiere, After Effects is only one I can use for this comparison. So.

There are NO good Open Source video editing software made for Linux, and I'm pretty confident about this.

I'm currently using shotcut, it's buggy and just work, not great. With it, you can crop the video, change color, do some easy compose it etc, but that's almost all.

If you have a good computer, you can try DaVinci Resolve. Though it's not an open source software, but it will give you After Effect+ level experience.

I had some experience with 3ds Max & After Effect, and I tried Blender few days ago (For Editing Video and 3D modeling). What I found is that the UI of Blender is a chaotic torment even for people like me. It even cause some hard time when all I want is just to "close" (Or Shrink) a panel.

I'm not saying Blender is a bad software, I just hoping Blender can have a more organized, focused and solid UI. Then it will be friendlier for greens who want to learn it.

> because they get tricked into thinking it's dark and they act like it

This is a really bad example :DDD

I don't think that is totally true for human eye. You can test it by putting a LED spotlight in front of you at night, and have someone else check your pupil before and after you turn on the LED (And remember test it in different distances).

Camera works differently, they have multiple ways (Metering Modes) to test the brightness of a scene. So how it work will depends on the selected Metering Mode.

And camera can collect more light by letting light keep entering the light sensor for longer time. Plus, bigger lens can also collect more light, some people may even mount their camera on a telescope, thus more light entering. So maybe this is the physical reason why so many gears got destroyed?

Oh hi another Kurzgesagt fan! :D
