China has a problem. It isn't good at finding the best people and putting them into science (or whatever else). Instead it gets the loyal people and gives them the best jobs, they then select people below them however they will

People then strive for recognition and advancement so scientific fraud is rife

This idea has been around for a while. Make government more efficient by putting a private enterprise person in charge

It never worked because the private enterprise person got efficiency by having a cool project or forceful personality in the private enterprise which let them pay their employees poorly. Or maybe they paid their employees well and had excellent success. But then they have government employees who are hard to fire, have highly specialist knowledge, aren't in it for profit and so the private enterprise maverick is usually [worse than] useless

I don't expect it to work this time either, especially as Musk is more interested in Tesla, SpaceX, and his other companies

Now that Linux can run pretty much all the games I play on the PC I don't think I'm going to have much use for windows at home anymore

I'm not in a position to tell if someone can afford to eat. They might look like they're employed or be dressed expensively, but people can fall on hard times suddenly

So I'm not going to report anyone for anything except crimes against individuals

You sound ready to spring your "but you can do that in Linux" trap

This person did it by playing it until it crashed. There are several points where particular actions will crash the game.

I would argue though that to beat Tetris you would need to beat level 255, at which point the level counter wraps to level 0

It isn't persistent over a reboot, but the tested devices received new corrupted iMessages immediately after reboot

Compiling your own kernel, configured for your hardware and use, was normal in the early days
