Demanding "evidence" in newsgroups, etc, is a sure sign of trolling.
Nobody with a search engine needs to be "shown evidence".

hmm, ok. Well I wasn't demanding anything, more requesting. I thought since you seemed so certain of yourself you'd have a ready reply, but I guess I misunderstood what your certainty is really about.

My "certainty", as you put it (only trolls are so quick to be so personally insulting), has nothing to do with wishing to be trolled, or with wishing to be an unpaid teacher of information that can be googled in two seconds.
If you want to know more, it's not my job to google it and provide links for you.
And read the troll's handbook (google that, too). A lot of your messages in CP appear to come straight from it.

1. I'm not attacking you -- but words like "attack" are quick to be used by trolls.
2. Check the Guide to Trolling about who uses the phrase "ad hominem", in this world where no-one bothers with Latin.
Just tone it down, eh?
I'm not saying you're a troll; I'm saying you talk like one a little too much.
Maybe that was OK in the soapbox, but in the Lounge (and nowadays in the western world in general) it's not what anyone want to hear, any more.

All I wanted was a friendly conversation and some information. I genuinely wanted to understand why you made the claim you did, from your perspective. So not something I can google why you believe what you do. But you immediately said "don't troll". Well thank you, but I wasn't. Maybe I was a bit too direct, but I'm not apt to believe or give much credence to statements like you were making without a little bit of reason behind it. Not asking for a treatise or essay. Maybe you could also tone it down a bit. You seem to bit negative about almost everything.
BTW, I did google China and quantum teleportation, and while I did find some interesting bits, there was nothing I could find that talked about quantum communication between two computer chips.
Anyway, you're of course, welcome to respond, but I feel like this horse has been beaten into the next century.
ciao

After almost 350 years, physicists have just arrived at a statistical solution for Newton's three-body problem – that is, the problem of figuring out how three similar objects or bodies are going to travel in space in a way that fits in with the laws of motion and gravity. OK, now do four

An Alabama man is leading a $5 million class action lawsuit against Ring and its owner, Amazon, following a string of hacking incidents involving the home security company’s internet-connected camera. When in doubt, sue
I wonder if he had the default password still on the camera?

A: Ring responded by placing "blame squarely on its customers" for using "weak passwords that have previously been compromised,".
B: Ring only required users enter a basic password and did not offer or did not compel two-factor authentication 2FA has absolutely SFA to do with using weak and previously-compromised passwords.
Using weak and previously-compromised passwords is the process to follow if you absolutely want to be hacked. 2FA will be of little help if that's what you want, and is also a major intrusion of privacy -- "your security" is not the real reason why companies like amazon and google want your phone number, etc.
Besides, I thought Merkins didn't want their hands held, when doing stuff; they want to be big, rugged men, In Control of Their Own Destinies!
(Which kinda doesn't work, if you don't put some effort into preventing hackers taking control of your destiny.)
So, after three minutes' not-too-careful consideration, I'm going to have to go with A.

According to data crunched by Triplebyte, “opportunity for professional growth” is the biggest motivator, ahead of salary, better work/life balance, and “impressive team members.” "When you're through learning, you're through."

Yep, That's the whole benefit of being techie.

Ahead of salary?
Salary is the thing that makes us work; if learning precedes that, it is because the salary offer isn't worth the offset. If learning precedes your wife, it is time to divorce.

A plus, but not the main motivation as the title suggests

I'll have to bear that in mind, and ask questions about it, the next time I'm hiring.

Starting New Year’s Day, you may notice a small but momentous change to the websites you visit: a button or link, probably at the bottom of the page, reading “Do Not Sell My Personal Information.” Because GDPR was so fun, we'll do it again...California style

of course for them to remember your response you'll need to turn off your current anti-tracking protection meaning you'll get uberpwnd by the ones who gamble they can make more money than they'll end up paying in fines for ignoring it.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

previous record: [my personal info]
new record: [my personal info
bool: DoNotSell = true]
new record with your selling preference is now sold to interested parties.
Side question: Is there a way to block my website from being viewed in California? Kind of, if location == California then go away
or, if location == California then display tumbleweed
Exactly what legal power does a state have over people who are not residents of their state?

Remember what browsers used to look like around 2000, with all the "browser toolbars" every site felt the need to add?
Or Word when all the toolbars were enabled. 6.4cm of screen height ought to be enough for everyone.
