Encouraging news on China based on some independent analysis. The rest of the world needs effective policies and processes — we can learn from China and Singapore.

@paulg Learn to fire people asap if it is not working -- you are doing them and yourself a favor.

[Arjun Kakkar @kakkar]

Awesome. But does any self-respecting programmer still use emacs when vim is merely a click away? https://t.co/VYrobwIJNE
