How to piss off people 101.

Do you fail to remember how the tech world collectively cringe at one guy who intentionally injected malware into his own npm library to delete all data from Russia and Belarus?

If I could buy a game from Nintendo, I still wouldn’t.

I do buy from Steam though, since it’s more convenience than piracy.

Don’t trust Reuters just yet, especially when their source is anonymous. They once said that Intel was planning factory in Vietnam, then they alone said that Intel cancelled it. Their source is anonymous in both instances. And only Reuters is talking about it.

It still lacks burning fire, Chinese flag, and caption “China will collapse in 30 days”.

There are no contradiction here. Marx only states that capitalism will create the material condition for a revolution, he does not imply that it will magically happen.

Heaven and Earth change, but it is Man’s will to seize the opportunity.

Something Uyghur something concentration camp something something CCP.

Palestinian? Open air prison? Genocide in Gaza? What are you talking about?

So am I. I have only played against computer and my friends and relatives because I’m not that good at micro.

Maybe one day I will try online, but that would require me to 1. stop touching grass, 2. accept the bloat that is Reforged.

Classes have inheritance. Rust structs don’t.

Is this some sort of OOP joke I’m too Rust to understand?

That show is obvious to Vietnamese, no doubt.

For the wider East Asian culture however, there’s Journey to the West. It contains allegory and political commentary on the corruption, decadence, and weakness of the Ming Dynasty. In Journey to the West, both the Taoist Celestial Court and the Buddha side are corrupt in their own ways. These elements have sadly been removed in the 10,000 Chinese cinema remakes. These remakes are profitable, but soulless and forgettable.

I did know you were joking but I didn’t know “bureaucratos” until you explain it to me. Cultural difference, I guess.

Regarding the Celestial Bureaucracy (or Heavenly Court). Nowadays, it is often used in fictional works as a metaphor for actual government to criticize the government. Actually, it is not just “nowadays”, it has always been used as a metaphor for actual government.

Well the Vietnamese don’t worship Greek Gods, but many people are superstitious. Their beliefs range from Feng Shui, to Wu Xing, to demons and ghosts. I’ve heard of parents who prevent their son from marrying his lover simply because their ages incompatible. And there are reports about people of minor ethnicity in remote areas who rather invoke a shaman for an illness rather than call a doctor, even if the illness is lethal.

You implied that your business outlasts your former employer’s? Serve them right! What a shitty company. Losing trust is detrimental in business so their bankruptcy is only natural.

Regarding “lubrication”, many people including my parents believe that the right middle men (“cò” in Vietnamese) can speed up the process. They don’t have any basis to this thinking though. It’s like a secular form of Asian superstition. Regardless, I now have a habit of reading the nameplates of gov employees should “difficulty” arises.

It’s kinda expected that our immigration laws aren’t the best. Vietnam as a developing economy would expect to export our own labours abroad, rarely do we import labours.

Anyway, it’s nice to hear a story that contradicts what I find on /r/Vietnam subreddit. Let’s hope that the government continue to modernize and improve bureaucratic efficiency. And may the God of Wealth bless your business.

Tried working for a foreign company as an employee, got cheated badly, lost most of my assets, didn’t know what to do.

Did they only pay you in “equity” instead of wages?

Also, how was your interaction with the government? Did you have to “lubricate” with your money to make things go faster?

Understandable.

BTW, I’m a bit surprise when I find out you were actually a foreigner migrated to Vietnam, which is a developing country. I was always under the impression that talents usually rather migrate to a more developed economy, not only for higher life quality, but also more advanced technologies. What made you decide to open a tech company in Vietnam instead of anywhere else?

Impressive, but not cost-effective. I would just fetch("random.org") XOR Math.random().

If a communist isn’t hated by the capitalist establishment, he isn’t a real communist. (I do not imply that being hated by the establishment alone qualifies you to be a communist)

User-Agent switcher.

What Israel did in their short history is sacrificing long term survival for short term imperialist interest. Now, their neighbors hate them, most of the world hate them, I’d be surprised if this state can survive for the next 10 years.
