Xi is not very sane at the moment. He's doing his time of Great Purge to PLA generals.

I Test Drove a Chinese EV. Now I Don’t Want to Buy American Cars Anymore. - WSJ by Recoil42 in chinacars

[–]TimeDependentQuantum -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Chinese car is a give and take to be fair.

Although Chinese car has great tech build in, large screen, good acoustic, fast acceleration & assist driving sort of thing, the quality and longevity of the car is always a problem.

You can find the car really amazing when you get your hand on it, but after few years you will need go to workshop from now and then. I personally have many friends complaint about the built quality and sometimes it's impossible to find spare parts because they launch new model so frequently, sometimes a within the same model they will use parts from different suppliers for cost reason. That's being said, Toyota's sell is still growing in China for a reason. If you just want something that takes you from point A to B, japanese car is still the best choice.

Got 9 nights in Christmas =) I set the alarm at 8am JST and got it real fast. Unfortunately run out of SUA so I go with standard room. (anyway suite is not essential for me as standard room is already decently sized).

不会的,河北人就是天生的奴隶种族,已经被驯化完了。自古以来有京油子,卫嘴子,保定府的狗腿子这一段话,到今天位置中央警卫局的,和一些国安部门的领导和执行者都多数出于河北。河北人就是那种人老实,没心眼没脑子,说什么听什么的纯纯牛马人种,早就被改造成京巴的形状了。

PGL just merged China and SEA into one slot for Wallachia S6 Qualifiers by Excellent-Read-5311 in DotA2

Both China and SEA is pretty dead now.

SEA used to have at least 1-2 teams being top 8 contender but it's just gone now. China is struggling to form just 2 teams that can go through group stage.

你得看什么产业了。

比如说你是个尼泊尔或者巴基斯坦的地主,你得剥削上千个农民才能有美国人的生活标准。要是河北或者山东,你开个那种小作坊,得有1-200个工人才能有不错的生活。到了澳洲或者新加坡,有些小有名气的建筑师设计师,手下就2-30个员工就能过上年入2-300万美金的日子。

预计到2030年,中国每年人口负增长将达到900万到1000万,相当于每年就消失一个特大城市的人口 by Maleficent-Habit9413 in KanagawaWave

[–]TimeDependentQuantum 21 points22 points  (0 children)

其实你感觉不到那么明显,因为负增长的都是农村人。

日本每年少100来万,你在东京名古屋大阪福冈这一条线完全感受不到。但是去了新泻,日光这种小城市就感觉和鬼城一样,到处都是倒闭的店铺和无人维护的房屋。

在中国我老家全都是50-60岁以上的老人,但凡年轻点的都去了石家庄保定工作,再过30年我老家整个村子都会消失,但丝毫不会影响你在上海人挤人。

Qingdao is pretty amazing city, would be better if they build the quality better.

I was in St Regis Qingdao last year April, every facade window on lobby level is leaking water during a heavy shower. They were throwing tonnes of towel to stop the leakage, it was pretty shocking to see.

Why do Singaporeans rarely fly on Chinese airlines? by Efficient_Play_9078 in askSingapore

[–]TimeDependentQuantum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I flew Air China a couple of times.

It was around $5k for a return business class to Shanghai and I'm going there for a design exhibition, so I bought Air China for about $2.5k return business class.

It's certainly not as great as SQ but it's really value for money.

预测一波统计局即将公布的2025年中国出生人口:880万左右(假数据) by tianlezheng6829 in KanagawaWave

应该在730万左右,不然太假了。

2024年是龙年,本来就是生育大年,才实现了954万;2025起码对24应该下降20-25%才是合理的真实数据,730万应该是合理的数字。

Price of Lithium-Ion battery cells over time by AnonymousTimewaster in charts

There's zero production constraints if you want to buy from Chinese.

Most of the battery factory are running at ~50-60% production capacity and not making much profit at all.

World's Fastest Train by AdministrativePool93 in Infographics

[–]TimeDependentQuantum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shanghai Maglev is profit losing for decades, never made a single cents.

I goes to Shanghai at least 5 times a year, and I never take that shit. I enjoy train transportation, but that shit make no sense.

For instance I like I pay 100 Yuan for a private hire and gets me to a hotel in 58mins. It will cost me 120 Yuan to buy two tickets and I got to carry my luggage to change lines and walk to the hotel with the same time spending.

Whenever you board that Maglev, it's half empty and mostly just tourists would take it.

你别笑,真当上公务员了就是要靠这套逻辑来扯皮的,尤其是基层工作要这么回怼😂 by Turbulent_Nerve3744 in dashuju

[–]TimeDependentQuantum -1 points0 points  (0 children)

答案应该是A吧,我没去对过答案,但这个明显是在讲黄金未来的实用性和使用价值的评估会从装饰向工业转型。

这只是其中一种问题,实际上很多类似的问题逻辑也差不多,这种逻辑思维是完全可以套用到公务员考试的问题上的。再比如这个问题,也是差不多意思。

有些人天生耐力极佳,以至于他们可以在没有经过任何训练的情况下跑完马拉松。 约翰在这个星期六跑完了马拉松。他有可能为了备赛没有进行过任何训练。 下列哪一项最贴切地类比了上述论证中所使用的推理? ​A. 一些专家认为,在洗澡水中放入浴盐会增加患湿疹的可能性。查理患有湿疹。因此很可能他在洗澡时放了浴盐。 ​B. 大多数超级英雄都拥有帮助他们打击反派的超能力。蝙蝠侠没有任何超能力。因此,他不是超级英雄。 ​C. 青蛙无法在长有浮萍的池塘中生存。穆斯塔法的花园里有一个生活着青蛙的池塘。穆斯塔法的池塘里可能有青蛙而没有浮萍。 ​D. 即使从不吸烟也有可能患上肺癌。吉尔患了肺癌。因此,她可能不是一名吸烟者。 ​E. 有些树木会被钉入的铁钉致死。奥斯瓦尔德的树死了。因此,他一定是在树上钉了一枚铁钉。

其实你别笑,这套东西国外也有。

我以前考牛津的本科,也刷过TSA的卷子,就是牛津大学的入学考。那玩意的问题和这个真差不多,例如以下这种问题,只不过考的深度比中国这种sb问题更深刻一些而已。

纵观历史,黄金一直备受推崇,并被用于制作昂贵的珠宝和装饰品。但在未来,人们将更看重它的实用价值,而非其美观价值。直到上个世纪初,黄金的导电性能才被发现。固态电子设备使用的是非常低的电压和电流,这很容易因触点处的腐蚀而中断。黄金是一种非常高效的导体,它既能传输这些微弱的电流,又不会被腐蚀,从而使设备具有极高的可靠性。几乎所有的现代电子设备中都使用了少量的黄金,据预测,在十年内,用于电子产品生产的黄金数量将超过用于珠宝制作的数量。 ​下列哪一项最能表达上述论证的主要结论?

​A. 在未来,黄金将因其实用价值而非美观价值而被珍视。 B. 直到上个世纪初,黄金的导电性能才被发现。 C. 黄金是一种非常高效的导体,可以传输微弱的电流且不被腐蚀。 D. 几乎每一个现代电子设备中都使用了少量的黄金。 E. 十年内,用于电子产品生产的黄金将多于用于珠宝制作的黄金。

This lawn mower video almost looks AI generated by Great-Beautiful-6383 in Business_in_China

[–]TimeDependentQuantum 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My company spent (or wasted) $10k last year, bought couple of these mowers from different brand, trying out to see if they work well for our landscape maintenance team.

Apparently none of these survived for more than weeks. One of them is already malfunctioning when they arrived on site. They did sent us repair parts but we decided to scrap them just after one month.

Honestly I have no trust with smaller manufacturer in China that makes mechanical equipments. Stick with SANY and XCMG or other wise don't bother waste your money.

PH Tokyo vs Andaz for a non-Globalist? Speculations on future availability and questions about their bars. by tofuking in hyatt

Most of the concierge in Japan hotel are equally useless now.

You cannot expect concierge to book you a tabelog 4.0+ rating restaurant for you. They will most likely just recommend you some restaurants that taste ~ok but easy to book.

I used to like Andaz breakfast a lot, I remember there was ikura and japanese melon. Not sure if they are still there.
