fun to think that my shitty program is now stored in an artic vault and stored in some Chinese servers

So many bugs I never fixed and yet here we are lol

The great thing about China is that it's got lots of people eager to fix those bugs

I love how they reinvent a universal experience as uniquely Chinese

Not as bad as you make it out to be, and I actually worked in the US with more Chinese engineers than US engineers.

I didn't down vote you. I'm not saying all Chinese engineers are bad, I'm just saying a lot are bad or don't care enough about details just execution as fast and with as little effort as possible.
