What Is Going to Happen If China Becomes a Democratic Country?

China is already a democracy: The representatives of the National Peoples Congress are elected by Chinese citizens.Or do you mean what would happen if China turned into a democracy in the eyes of Western leaders, particularly the United States?Then China would be a failed state, fractured internally, followed by the installment of a puppet regime and takeover of Chinese assets and natural resources by foreign corporations, see Russia in the 90s for reference.

Having multiple parties and elections are not enough, only when your country serves the geopolitical interest of Western countries (aka the international community) and also be weak enough to not pose a threat will you get recognized as a democracy. See again Russia for reference. Or do you mean what would happen if China turned into a multi-party democracy?

Freedom of speech would improve, corruption would increase, effective policy implementation would become impossible, gap between rich and poor would widen, nationalism and xenophobia would become rampant. See Taiwan and India for reference.Or do you mean what would happen if China turned into a Federal Republic?

Ethnic strife would massively worsen, regional difference in economic development would widen (especially infrastructure), inter-regional commerce would decrease. The outcome would either be disintegration of China or a ultranationalistic leader coming to power. See Yugoslavia or post-2000 Russia for reference.

Or do you mean what would happen if China turned into a direct democracy?Well, how direct? Referendum-on-tax-bracket-direct?

Referendum-on-which-country-to-bomb-direct?God help us all.**This answer also applies to any of the other major powers becoming a direct democracy.

Why are there always food shortages in communist or socialist led countries?

The reason there are shortages are due to there is NO market system.Lets not split hairs but just about everything tangible has a price.

If it doesnt have a price it exists in such abundance as to be natural, like air for example but one can imagine situations when air has a price. Everything is free nothing has a value. The natural market sets the price of a thing.

200 years ago oil was worth zero in the marketplace. The ingenuity of man created a market for oil. It is impossible to run any economy without a pricing system.

It is that simple.Where actual free market price is suppressed or controlled by government monopoly without competition then you get shortages. Government can not create a market for anything either.

Where the environmentalists claim such is possible what really is created is a tax and not a market.In socialist and commie countries or any country that controls the price of a thing or service you will get long lines of citizens ;waiting in bread lines; waits for needed surgery; waiting for toilet paper. The queue is the price citizens pay to get something for nothing.

In other words the citizen is going to pay in some form and often has to do without. But heh. that is okay.

for example because the Democrat party will make health care free. a natural right. There is no end the ways the left attempts to expunge market for any good even guns.

. the result is a black market and poverty and loss of freedom for everyone

What are some historical facts that sound fictional?

The year is approximately 500 BC and you, a good citizen of the Ancient Greek colony Massalia (Marseille), have been having something of a tough time recently.

Your wife Artemisia has just died of all the plagues and your children, all disappointingly daughters, have married and moved away.You made an okay living as a playwright but if youre being honest, you know that monkeys could write better plays and youre not even certain what those are. So you decide that theres only one thing for it.

Youre going to commit suicide. But youre not going to hang yourself or drown yourself or anything else so uncivilised. Youre going to send in an application to the senate and claim your government issued bottle of hemlock, entirely free of charge!

You see, Massalia had a policy whereby you would be allowed to claim a free bottle of hemlock from the senate if you:Were a citizen of Massalia (i. e not a slave)Were not contributing to societyHad some sort of meeting wherein it was determined that this would be the best option for youOf course, this little fact comes from Livy who was writing a few hundred years in the future and who Im fairly certain also claimed that North Africans rode giant scorpions into battle so you know. Grain of salt and all that.

(Edit: in hindsight I think the scorpion idea was actually the work of Herodotus who had nothing to do with Massalia but Im leaving it in because I flatter myself that that paragraph flows quite nicely!)

I got fired as a developer for bad technical skills, but still want to be a developer. What should I do?

My main weakness is I learn new skills slowly. I really love programming and want to work in software development. How should I improve?

Identify a problem or error in code you created or worked on. Special bonus if you identify a problem that recurred multiple times. Think hard and honestly about the underlying root cause(s).

Then look for good practices that would prevent that problem from occurring in the first place. They can be a simple as adopting a better coding style (variable names, logic structure, modularization, refactoring) or thinking more before coding in the first place (better unit tests, ask questions before charging ahead, RTFM, reuse open source before building from scratch) Then adopt the new practice(s) until they are ingrained, critically assessing them along the way. Repeat.

Strive to never make the same mistake twice. Learn from each one and use it as a tool to keep improving.If you incrementally assess your approaches, and gradually replace bad work habits with good work habits, you'll find yourself making fewer and fewer coding nightmares, and soon be producing higher quality software right from the start.

Keep learning and studying and assessing -- removing weaknesses and adding strengths. Learning is a life long long journey. (BTW, this approach carries over to most complex skills, not just coding)I would much rather have a disciplined thoughtful programmer on my team with strong engineering work habits, than a "brilliant" cowboy who shoots from the hip.

I'll gladly work with someone at any level who generally wants to learn and improve, but get very frustrated after seeing someone make the same mistake repeatedly who is in too much of a hurry to slow down and figure out how to avoid the mistake in the first place

What is your view on Narendra Modi's statement that Vallabhbhai Patel and Subhash Chandra Bose could've led India better than Nehru?

Prime Minister Modi is very innovative and has very strange logic, most of the time.His assessment that Subhash Chandra Bose could have been a better Prime Minister defies all logics.

India got independence in 1947 from British and the government was formed there after. Interestingly, Subhash Chandra Bose died in an air crash in 1945. This would therefore have been a very strange imagination that Bose could have proved a better P.

M than Nehru, even when he was not alive.If that be the logic, Bhagat Singh, Lala Lajpat Rai, Chandra Shekhar Azad, Bal Ganga Dhar Tilak, Madan Mohan Malaviya and many more could have been better PM than Nehru ( Posthumously). Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel died in 1950 at the age of 75 years, This is also a very interesting logic that India, who started from Zero in 1947 could have transformed to a a mighty nation within three years.

Now let us come to logic, which Modi has for himself. Even five years are supposed to be a insufficient period for his government for any value addition, as most of his hollow promises are supposed to be completed by 2022 i. e.

in eight years. That too, when India had already emerged as Global power in 2014.For him the period of five years is too small whereas India had nothing to show in 1947 and Patel could have transformed India in three years?

His assumptions that Subhash Chandra Bose and Sardar Patel could have been better PM than Nehru and could transform India in just three years, is like any other funny (False) incidents, he is expert in narrating

What happens inside the tank when hit by a sabot round? Will the crew die instantly due to impalement?

How many people remember flash bulbs?

Most of you will have to ask your parents or grand parents. In a nutshell a flash bulb is how you add light to a photo taken (usually) indoors. Magnesium wires inside a glass or plastic bulb with Oxygen gas would be ignited by electrical spark causing a bright flash.

Sometimes the flash would burn through or at least melt the plastic. If you ejected it soon enough after its use it could give you a pretty good burn on your hand. Now compare the size of a flash bulb with the size of a tank especially the turret (since thats what is most likely to be hit) and picture that happening inside the vehicle.

Life inside a super sized flash bulb would not be good, I could only hope it would be painless but I doubt it. But wait theres more! As has been pointed out in other answers, the ammo in side the vehicle will cook off (no it doesnt always explode like in the movies.

) This will be a spectacular sight as the hot gases burn through the seals on the hatch covers and turret mount. BTW, after killing a tank or any vehicle with a DU round, DO NOT go near it without proper equipment (chem suits and the like), the Uranium may be depleted but its still Uranium. To para phrase Cave Johnson Let us know if you feel a shortness of breath, a persistent dry cough, or your heart stopping.

Because that's not part of the test. That's Uranium

How do you see Narendra Modi picking up garbage at the beach in Mahabalipuram during the morning jog?

Narendra Modi picking up garbage at the beach will have following results:It will improve his own credibility as a leader, as a change agent and as someone who leads by example.

It will decrease the credibility of India, Tamil Nadu and of Taj hospitality.As an Indian, we should be ashamed that a Chinese Premier has come to our country and we don't even have a decent city free from filth which we can showcase him. Tamil Nadu government should be ashamed that they don't have money to pay a few sanitation workers who could have cleaned a pathway where the PMu2019s visit was pre planned!

The Taj group which maintains the private beach should be ashamed that it can't even take care of a few hundred feet area which it can keep free from filth.SPG and NSG who protect our PM 24 x 7 should be ashamed. They scan, comb and do all necessary mock drills 72 hours before a PM arrives anywhere.

They clear the area from any kind of threats like bombs, mines and snipers. How come they have missed something so obvious?Summing up, the actions by the PM has improved his credibility and put the credibility of everyone else down.

Now there will be people who will call this as a drama, pre planned etc. My advice to all readers: please do not listen to those anti nationals and nay sayers. Ignore them and continue to wade in the ocean of your orgasmic desh bhakti.

Thanks Shubham Bhatt (u0936u0941u092du092e u092du091fu094du091f) for asking!.
