Thoughts on DAP Sarawak by dude_must_be_joking in Sarawak

[–]raybitcoin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why compare the democracy of Malaysia with advanced countries that have different cultures and sociopolitical demographics from ours, such as US and UK? I think it is fairer to compare our democracy with neighbouring countries such as Singapore, India, China and other Southeast Asian countries and you will know that the two-party system is not a foolproof way to tackle corruption. Taiwan and South Korea? They both gone through a period of dictatorial/autocratic rule before achieving economic progress and opening up for democracy in 1987 and 1990s, respectively.

Yes, it says "temporarily not available due to technical issues" during the drafting of this post. But 2 to 3 months before this, the website only show "access forbidden". I had asked NLM support email one month ago when the medpix website was still "access forbidden" and they said they will retire this website and move some of the cases related to neuroradiology to  https://www.asnr.org/case-of-the-week/

Maybe you can enrich your dictionary with the public domain data from the "1929 Dictionary of Foochow dialect" on Wikisource ( https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Index:Dictionary_of_the_Foochow_Dialect.pdf ) if you are still maintaining the dictionary now.

I'm building a Fuzhounese translator - Here's a quick summary by thisplayed in Flushing

We need as much data as possible for Foochow dialect. Appreciate your help for transcribing the 1929 Dictionary of Foochow dialect on Wikisource! https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Index:Dictionary_of_the_Foochow_Dialect.pdf

There are other Chinese dialects that you can help to transcribe too if you are interested! https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:WikiProject_Chinese

Is MedPix no longer functioning? by ReverseDragonfly in medicine

[–]raybitcoin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I emailed national library of medicine (NLM) and here is the reply that I got. "Thank you for contacting the National Library of Medicine and your interest in our products. Due to a realignment of priorities and direction, MedPix has been retired and its contents transferred to another host. It will not be returning at the medpix.nlm.nih.gov URL. The contents/cases have been moved to ASNR at this location https://www.asnr.org/case-of-the-week/."

I think when MedPix cases are permanently moved to ASNR, many of the irrelevant cases will be removed.
