It is disturbing because China did not hesitate to kill 10000 of their own people in 1989 on a shoestring budget, and faced no consequence. Who knows what they would do to Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, etc.
I highly doubt China will start a war, its not financially positive, unless they wanted to just expend some of their excess population.
I rather think domination via trade, investment, manufacturing and economical means is more plausible because thats what they're doing right now and they have more resources and capabilities to do more.
As well, its never good to fight a land war in Asia, korea, afghanistan, vietnam, cambodia and others has demonstrated that, as from a military perspective, you would be losing lives trying to police an area where locals have a more-than-significant population advantage over you.
Modern military tactics are no longer invade via land forces with air as support but rather spread fake news via social media and watch for signs of weakness in cyber structures.
If we are on the subject of what crimes against humanity should prevent a country getting what kind of weapon, Asia-raping Japan is on the brink of acquiring nukes according to some comments below, do you find that disturbing?
Sorry for the whataboutism but I think how each country is perceived when spending money on military is worth discussing.
Yes. But Japan has been mostly, um, "inert" and peaceful since WW2. China's history since WW2, to this day, has been one of one atrocity after another. Things seem to be getting worse with Winnie the Pooh declaring him eternal president.
Also, if Japan was Asia raping in WW2, China is China-raping now.
Japan is still bound by article 9 of it's constitution but let us not pretend that they haven't been trying to get rid of that article or sent their defense force to play war in the middle east "strictly for defensive purposes".
That being said; between the two, China today is more like Japan during WWII than Japan today is.
>but let us not pretend that they haven't been trying to get rid of that article or sent their defense force to play war in the middle east "strictly for defensive purposes".
The PM and his party (the LDP) in coalition with the Komeito party have been trying to push that for years, without success. Mostly because the Japanese people don't seem to support it.
And to be fair, revising Article 9 and not going on a romp through the Middle East is also an option. I can see the rationale for doing so, besides right-wing nationalism on Japan's part.

That's definitely a possibility, however removing Article 9 is seen as a threat by China and might be a tactical error. Japan hasn't had any trouble building the defense force. If anything having Article 9 in place is plausible deniability for hostilities against China.
It seems that since the gpdr requires deletion of data upon user request, companies will not be able to send recall notices when, say, a medical device starts killing customers.
The GDPR does not require deletion of all user data on request. There’s still data that can and must be preserved, for example business records, thus records of sale. A recall should be possible with those records. The customer might request that these records cannot be used for unrelated purposes, though.
You’re generally allowed to keep data that is required to provide a service. So in my understanding, yes, if you provide such a service and the user requests that, you should generally be allowed to keep that info _for exactly that purpose_ You can’t use it for anything else though.
MySQL foreign keys add locks to referenced rows, and can have surprising effects on concurrent queries, particularly if you aren't running at read committed or lower isolation level.
InnoDB storage engine is available in 5.4, you don't have to use only MyISAM[1].
However, depending on your application, you may be enforcing these constraints elsewhere and not need them at the engine level, even if it's a nice-to-have.
Yes I have. Convolutional Nets work well for simpler cases. See [Yoon Kim 2014](https://arxiv.org/abs/1408.5882). FYI "Tagging" in NLP is more used for labelling individual words (verbs, nouns, pronouns, etc). "Classification" is a better keyword here.
