This seems odd. My experience visiting India was of software parks that are 24h operations. Perhaps this was in the Mumbai sticks. The 50 phone lines and people coming to work in a bungalow not being a giveaway, perhaps something alongside the breakfast order was.

The article says “Virar”, which is just outside of Bombay, reachable easily via the “local train.” We used to go there for picnics and team retreats.

If it's something your proud of having done, perhaps buy the <library name>.com or <>.io or whatever.

Also, while the code is under an MIT license, is the name or brand?

Deng Xiaoping was not the successor to Mao. That was Hua Guofeng. An interim leader, but an important interim stopgap.

I have no idea who N S Lyons is other than a substack author. There are many other small factual errors and romanticisms of writing in the piece, as well as avenues left unexplored not least if Confucianism is but an excuse for authoritarianism as it has been used by past dynasties who've tended to flip from Confucianism to Taoism, and sometimes other, to justify themselves.

But that shouldn't shadow the subject at hand, which is casting some light on the limelight avoiding figure of Wang.

He's one of the more cerebral / wordy writers like Tanner Greer that writes about US/PRC culture / how they foil each other. It's fine. Note this line in article:

>This article by N.S. Lyons was originally published on Palladium Magazine on October 11, 2021. It was featured in PALLADIUM 09: Political Outcomes.

The original article largely responsible for Huning wank in western PRC watching circles, IMO very over indexed now.

Hua Guofeng seems analogous to Georgy Malenkov between Stalin and Khrushchev. Technically Malenkov was the successor to Stalin, but I wouldn't consider someone wrong for saying that Khrushchev was Stalin's successor. Maybe Hua was more significant though.

There's a small minimise button located next to each post on HN.

It's easier clicking that than making pronoun-filled replies that revolve around personal norms of commenting outside HN guidelines.

Wait, that's not the downvote button? I always thought that's how posts gained their light grey status.

According to the HN FAQ, you can't downvote comments until you've gained a certain amount of karma.

You need >500 points to downvote

Complaining about the format of the submission is also against HN guidelines.

The Goldman guy?

UBS had similar? Perhaps.

Try searching for these.

Requiring phone numbers for things is why I don't sign up.

Look at industrial economics and shakeouts.

The advantage a first mover has is early access to innovation. With earlier customers and a slightly more mature product they're a step ahead. So, knowing this, can you leap frog it by second guessing what the customer/market really wants in a way that wins for you?

Thanks for the insight, first time i heard leap frog haha. I get that there's ways to optimize both fast-follow or searching for OG pain-points. My question is more so, given that I will follow the best practices for both options, is fast-follow really a no-brainer highest-ROI option?

That a point exists is an assumption, and dimensions constructed.

Given you now live in the EU you could try exercising your right to account deletion.

How long does one need to be in the EU to have/exercise that right?

E.g., could an American issue a deletion order during a layover in a European airport?

I believe you just need to be a European resident, although how you define that is the crux. Realistically if you have a way to prove an address you reside at in Europe, that should be sufficient.

I do not live in the EU.

The kids have no choice. It might happen, or even be compulsory depending on social system.

Worth asking though. Your kids might end up at the equivalent of Aveling Park.
