The initial phase of colonisation in Africa (until the 17th century) involved mostly religious propaganda, unequal trade and miltary alliances with existing political powers in Africa. Look, for example, how Portugal, and later the Netherlands, slowly eroded the sovereignty of the Kindgom of Kongo and compare it to what China is doing today.
TLDR: African leaders are making the exact same mistakes with China as their predecessors did with the European powers.
It was a joke to make the point that vim can be the easiest tool to use if you are trying to do a complex task.
In the same way that any game with nazi zombies or even every single historical war game. I don't seem them kicking out Call of Duty
Easy is relative. What are you trying to do? Replace a value in an yaml file? Then nano is easier. Trying to refactor a business critical perl/brainfuck polyglot script in production? Then you probably want to use vim (or emacs if you are one of those people)

And? All of those being part of the same walled garden is a bug in the legal system not a feature.
There's also the part where they cooperate with Russian authorities but not western authorities (which is why Pavel Durov was arrested), or how their half hidden end2end encryption mode used to have a mechanism to make it almost impossible to detect a Person in the Middle Attack until they got called out.
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it's probably not a whale.
That's what happens when the drones' QA is done in the front.
Not necessarily, when you target one very specific setup you can use performance tricks you can't use otherwise. When developing for PC you are forced to play by the rules because you can't rely on a quirk of a particular combination of components because everyone has a different one.
Not a native speaker, but if I wanted to boil it down to a word I would use "made a trailer". I think you are right about the algoritm confusing a movie trailer with a physical trailer.
