Kindly follow the entire conversation if you want to argue. My comment was written to a false claim about economic growth analysis.
The working class in China is not seeing any improvement in their living standards right now, if that's your argument.
0.8% is not a "surge". If the average Chinese worker received a pay increase (and the haven't this year) of 0.8% nobody would claim that was a surge in their earnings.
Strong economic growth is typically defined as a GDP growth rate of 3% or higher. 2% can also be considered healthy, depending on the economic context.
surge
n 1: a sudden forceful flow [syn: {rush}, {spate}, {surge},
{upsurge}]
2: a sudden or abrupt strong increase; "stimulated a surge of
speculation"; "an upsurge of emotion"; "an upsurge in violent
crime" [syn: {surge}, {upsurge}]
Besides the odd biro, never once did I ever use company merch outside of an office. Definitely never used the shitty backpacks or laptop bags. Those got donated to Goodwill.
KDE is much easier to configure and was more stable last time that I compared.
