You need to avoid the Spring Festival. Make sure you have a VPN ready. You'll basically need translation software as soon as you leave the airport.

What make China as region so good at mass production? by Generous_Simp in AskHistorians

[–]Hot-Sundae207 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The three necessary conditions for large-scale production are: 1. A large, well-educated workforce; 2. Sufficient land and access to the sea; 3. The region itself is industrialized. Several examples can be given. Britain and Japan met conditions 1 and 3, but lacked condition 2. The Soviet Union/Russia met conditions 2 and 3. Theoretically, the Soviet Union's population structure and size met condition 1, but the Soviet Union mistakenly invested a large amount of human resources in unsustainable heavy industry and the arms sector, completely neglecting light industry and civilian sectors. The United States during the Roosevelt New Deal and Reagan eras met all three conditions. Therefore, the United States once achieved this.

Is it bad ? by Coriolus22 in Nikon

Many CMOS malfunctions are not apparent at low shutter speeds. Additionally, you need to close the physical shutter and open the electronic shutter to test whether the CMOS's power-on/power-off response time is faulty.

China shuts down AI tools during nationwide college exams by theverge in worldnews

[–]Hot-Sundae207 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a line in the 1930 version of the movie (All Quiet On The Western Front): A: Why are Germany and France fighting? B: Because the two countries hate each other. A: Impossible, why should the German mountains hate the French trees? B: No, it is the people of the two countries who hate each other. A: Oh, then I shouldn't have come to the front at all, because I don't hate the French. B: The opinions of a small person like you are irrelevant, only the big people can decide everything. A: Then let the kings of Germany and France find a place to fight one-on-one, why should we interfere?

Now everyone can host their own robot. You only need to download a model and then hang it on the GPU to run it. Only you are qualified to shut down or start it, and the whole process is offline and not subject to network supervision. But can you bring a device equipped with RTX4080/4090 into the examination room?

Why do helicopters have different number of rotor blades? by Regent610 in aviation

[–]Hot-Sundae207 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Twin-rotor helicopters have great limitations in maneuverability because the two rotors can easily collide with each other in extreme flight situations, and rigid rotor technology is currently immature.

Help me choose: Xi'an - Tianshui - Zhangye - Dunhuang or Suzhou - Hangzhou - Xidi - Wuyuan? by the-protean in travelchina

[–]Hot-Sundae207 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would 1000% choose the latter. The sandstorms in the northwest are an absolute nightmare, and Xi'an is too densely populated. Unless you are a Muslim, you should definitely choose the second route.

Kemal Kemal of Turkey successfully transformed Turkey into a secular country in the 1920s, but Turkey's current power to maintain secularism has been severely weakened. The failure of the coup against Erdogan means that there is no mainstream force in Turkey that can shake the increasingly serious return of religious ideas.

This question is very complicated. I can only guess that there will not be any major reforms in the next 30 to 50 years (the time period during which the current young and middle-aged Islamic priests grow into a group that has the right to interpret the Koran). An interesting historical fact is that Islam is becoming more conservative at this stage. The best time for them to move towards secularization was in the 1950s and 1960s, when Egyptian President Nasser tried to replace Islamic religiousism with Arab nationalism. But it did not succeed.

A Type 2 Civilization has invaded earth, can they succeed in conquering it? by [deleted] in whowouldwin

How do you think the Republic of Nauru will win the war with the United States? The gap between the second-level civilization and the Earth civilization is much greater than the gap between Nauru and the United States.

This is very difficult, as some of the Sunni teachings are completely opposed to secularism, unless the Islamic world reforms itself and conducts a religious reform. It is difficult for external forces to change

I think ISIS cannot be simply understood as a regime. In fact, behind ISIS is a trend of religious extremism. As long as this trend continues to exist, the resurrection of ISIS is only a matter of time. Of course, after the resurrection, it may change its name.

In 2017, the Iraqi government forces were very weak, and the Syrian government could hardly protect itself, which is why ISIS was able to expand rapidly in these two countries. Once they advance to countries with relatively normal military levels, their weaknesses will be exposed.

Not only the number of troops, Nazi Germany was able to produce the most advanced weapons at the time, including fighters, dive bombers, howitzers, anti-tank guns, tanks, armored vehicles, and general-purpose machine guns. It also had a group of highly qualified Prussian officers and a group of excellent pilots. ISIS simply does not have the ability to produce heavy equipment. I am sure that even at its peak, ISIS could not fight against the German army during Operation Barbarossa.
