This is YOUR domestic problem, it hits home for many people. If Rust made the same for every injustice in the world, there would be no more tweets from them ever.
Apparently, whoever is running that account wants to be part of the current thing and making an enemy of China might not be good for Rust's development.
I'm a bit bitter because they haven't given a fig about the minority most likely to be killed by law enforcement than any other racial or ethnic group and even use a license from an organization that domain squats on the very same minority.
I will not post direct links. Instead, I invite you to browse tags like #HongKongPoliceTerrorism, #HongKongPoliceBrutality, #HKpolice, etc. on Twitter.
We all know not to trust COVID death counts from China. HK police brutality is something like that. We have video evidence of a few murders. As for the actual count, no one knows.
And many major tech companies (Apple, Google, YouTube, Bytedance) were censoring the HK protestors with China, Even when a protestor was shot with a live round on Facebook Live.
Sounds like double standards with the current action with tech companies.
No not double standards. They are absolutely consistent standards. Zero principles. Pure profit motive. You don't have to run your company like that. This was a choice they have made. (Note that the profit motive isn't always the profit of the shareholders, it is the profit motive of the powerful inside the company).
Don't miss the point though. Cannot, under any circumstances be trusted. If they are sufficiently pressured they might do the right thing, or at least pretend to in public. Assume they are lying about everything until proven otherwise is a statement of the obvious.

You're right, the document is outdated. I've searched further and while I did find a few instances of police shooting at protesters, I didn't find deaths.
> I will not post direct links.
Please do instead. And no, I don't think twitter is a reliable source, twitter is an information battleground, you should know it.
> HK police brutality is something like that.
HK citizens have all the means and the interest to spread knowledge of police brutality in their protests. I don't think the comparison with China and covid holds any water (even assuming that what you say about China's covid numbers is true, as "everybody knows" is not a proof).
> I've searched further and while I did find a few instances of police shooting at protesters, I didn't find deaths.
Not to deemphasize the seriousness of an actual death, but the difference between shooting at protestors (especially if in a crowd, but I have not seen the video) and casualties is a matter of luck.
True of course. For example a police agent shot at close range a protester that was attacking him with an iron bar [1]. Luckily it seems the protester survived.
But again, over many months of mass demonstrations, sometimes violent, the number of zero or very few actual deaths is significant.
This is an undergrad course, "200 level" in the standard course numbering (which MIT does not follow). It's for people who know how to program, but relatively new to the field. It's mostly going to be getting people used to assembly and basic computational building blocks.

I'm Indian, so some of my predictions are about India.
# Global Issues
1. More pervasive surveillance states across the world.
2. Even more polarized politics across the world, with major riots between factions, i.e. hundreds dead as a result.
3. More Indian cities with unbreathable air. More toxic pollutants make it into our food-chain, and hundreds of millions of Indians and Chinese will find themselves unable to escape the rather drastic consequences.
3. Antibiotic resistant diseases are way more common, all because of how animals are farmed in the developing world.
4. The problem of corruption (esp. India) still has no end in sight.
5. China to be the de facto owner of many countries.
# Sci/Tech
1. Intel/AMD/Nvidia, Android/iOS will remain as dominant as they are now. But Android will borrow some features from Fuchsia.
2. China and India continue to install GW-scale solar energy farms.
3. Lab-grown meat available at your local grocery.
4. More electric car brands manufactured across the world.
5. Neural network will become more ubiquitous, often going hand-in-hand with IoT.
I haven't seen any evidence that birthrates have anything to do with having a high income in developed economies. All the evidence I have seen points in the other direction, where when women's education and career are de-emphasized by the society, the birthrates are high.
I have no experience in handling raw PDF data, but as a user, I sometimes notice that the computer is not reading the PDF text the same way as I'm reading it. Here are a few examples:
1. When searching (Ctrl+F) a commonly used phrase that occurs multiple times in a PDF, some occurrences fail to show up because of line breaks, accidental hyphenation, etc.
2. Once in a while, I come across PDF files where searches for words containing "fi", "ff", etc. fail because of some insane ligature glyph replacements.
3. Some PDF files that have a two-column layout for text still treat lines across the two columns as one line. Search fails again.
Given that you have already made that choice, I'd recommend "How Not to Die" by Dr. Michael Greger. One of my biggest criticisms of Greger is that he is ignores any study that shows benefits of eating animals, even for specific conditions. People who would like to continue eating animals would find it easy to dismiss Greger for being so one-sided in what kinds of studies he cites. However, if you've already made the choice to prefer vegetarian, Greger's book (and videos) are an easy recommendation.
Here’s Greger interviewed. He literally takes the approach you are wanting. Going all out on just reading tonnes and tonnes of research infact there’s a whole team of them doing it and summarising every few years.
I’m sure there are better podcasts but this is the one my partner got me to listen to where he’s interviewed.
